Hodlers are long-term holders of a cryptocurrency, who buy and hold regardless of price. The term originates from the misspelling of 'holder' and represents a conviction-based investment strategy where investors refuse to sell through market volatility.
Example
“A Bitcoin hodler who bought at $5,000 in 2020 held through the crash to $16,000 in 2022 and was eventually rewarded when BTC surged past $60,000 again.”
