Thank you for that word. Honestly the word HOLD is only thing I know lol. So it's big help to me to learn new things.
Wow never knew there are so many slangs. I only knew about DYOR, FOMO and Moon. Thanks for sharing
That's a new meaning for HODL. Nice. Also, Hime? Not High?
That's for bringing that to my attention, i've updated the article
Cool...! I love this!
nice helpful article
Very useful write up. I didn’t know that acronym for HODL. I thought it was a misspelling of “hold” such as “buy and hold” but the misspelling stuck and now refers more specifically to cryptocurrency “buy and holders” HODLers. I like the acronym though!
You're right, it actually started off as a spelling mistake but over the years it has morphed into meaning Hold on for your dear life
Nice work
