Are most crypto holders traders?

[neku]

I have been checking various crypto exchanges and I find that most of them are suitable for traders having a large amount of crypto. Very few are suitable for workers who receive crypto payment. What percentage of crypto holders are mainly traders?

I don't think that this is the case in reality, because these are completely different categories of people who have different attitudes towards cryptocurrency. In my opinion, those who trade do not keep cryptocurrency for profit, because they can earn much more and faster from trading

The people that hold crypto the most are obviously traders. They trade as a daily business and hold large amounts of crypto for that purpose in case any trade comes in at anytime.

I would not agree with you. Holders hold crypto until price don't go up in bull. Sometimes they hold same crypto for several years.
Traders trade every day. They don't hold it long term. In first chance when they see some profit, they sell crypto.

That's true. But it is the traders that really keep the system going because they're are the ones that buy the crypto frequently. They seem to be the ones that determine market price.

It is not easy to say because trading can equally bring huge losses. There is no parameters to measure which is more profitable.

I think so, since they are the first to understand this world and learn about it, and even if they were somewhat ignorant about the world of commerce in the beginning or simply weren't merchants, it doesn't take away from the fact that in the future they would have started to trade and learn about it, right?

Not all crypto holders are traders, but on the contrary almost all crypto traders are also crypto holders or have crypto as an investment instrument. So more than 90% of traders are also crypto investors.

 

[Augusta]

Yes they are holders as they tend to be more conservative. Traders seek immediate gains and as holders they aim for consistent long-term growth.

 

[eLdavis]

I highly doubt all crypto holders are traders, but majority of the people who hold crypto are traders.

I believe that the majority are not, investing long term does not require as much market knowledge, being a good trader on the other hand does, it's something that requires a lot of dedication and study.
