HODL
By CoinGecko | Updated on Mar 03, 2020
It originated in a December 2013 post on the Bitcoin Forum message board by an apparently inebriated user who posted with a typo in the subject, "I AM HODLING." It is now often used in the crypto community for holding on to their tokens instead of selling it.
