HODL
Holding coins long-term instead of selling.
HODL, born from a famous misspelling of "hold", means keeping coins through volatility instead of trading them. A "hodler" bets on the long term.
Miners face the hodl question on every payout: sell immediately (locking in fiat income against electricity costs) or hold the mined coins as an investment. Both are strategies; know which one you are running.
