I would rather liquidate it for a hefty profit, although I will hold some of it. There is no need of selling all the Bitcoins since I have already made some profits. Thus, no loss will have been made. Such a situation is similar to that of shares.  If something is wrong, most people rush to sell their shares to avoid losses.

Given the volatility of the price, as an investor I would liquidate and move to other investment.  The price has dropped from $20k since Dec 2017 and to $6500 at the time of writing, and given the negative publicity it receives from the investment fraternity, I would liquidate the price, collect from profit and move on to other opportunity.

Here's a simple investment plan: when the price doubles from your average price, sell half. You can deal with the rest more easily as the remaining assets will be profit no matter what. Doing this makes your decision making less emotional and hopefully more rational.

Here's an example of how it might play out: I buy $1,000 worth of btc at the 6500 level. Btc then goes to 13k. I sell half of my position which translates to 100% of my original investment. I hold the other half for how far btc might go with profit points set. I can do this easily because I'll be thinking, "I've got my capital back; this is just a free roll of my profits. I've no risk of being in the negative."

If the price of Bitcoin appreciates again, I will definitely sell to claim whatever profit available.  The trading in crypto coins is akin to playing musical chair, the one who does not get a chair when music stops losses the game.  Those who got the seat when it stops, hope the music stops forever.  Those who lost/do not get a chair,  hope the music to play again.  Why would the winners who had reaped huge windfall when the price was at its peak in Dec 2017, want to come back to support the price?

That's a great no lose plan.  Hopefully Bitcoin recovers soon and starts a rally and appreciates to new heights so that I could sell some and get my capital and some profits while leaving the other half for even more gains.

I think we should find another investment opportunities for now since bitcoin is a bit shakey and unpredictable or if you still believe that they'll still soar in the future then liquidate the half and just live the other half. Don't Put All your Eggs in One Basket. 

In this way, you have a 50-50 chance to win or lose money but have lesser risk.
