Samson Mow: Inexperienced Investors Caused Bitcoin's Fall
Date: 2025-11-13 Author: Gabriel Deangelo Categories: CRYPTO PAYMENTS
According to Samson Mow, in recent months there has been an active sell-off of Bitcoin by investors who acquired it over the past year and a half. Many of these investors do not own the cryptocurrency directly, but rather invested in related ETFs. Fearing a bearish trend, these participants rushed to lock in 20-30% profits in fiat.
Mow notes that such actions are typical of those who view the market purely from a speculative perspective and react to short-term fluctuations without adhering to the long-term principles underlying the original cryptocurrency. He added that experienced investors and true Bitcoin enthusiasts continue to hold onto their assets without succumbing to panic.
According to the entrepreneur, the fear among newcomers intensified after news that large Bitcoin holders—the so-called whales—had begun selling some of their holdings. This sparked a wave of anxiety among less experienced players, who perceived it as a signal of an imminent market reversal.
However, Mow is convinced that the current wave of selling is almost over. "Those who wanted to get rid of their coins have already done so. Now there are confident hodlers left in the market—and this is the best-case scenario for future growth," he stated on X's social media account.
The founder of Jan3 also expressed confidence that Bitcoin will soon return to growth. He believes 2026 will be a successful year for the cryptocurrency, with the bullish trend set to resume in the near future. Mow emphasized that Bitcoin's fundamental principles remain unchanged, despite temporary price fluctuations.
Mow has previously noted that Bitcoin could outperform gold in terms of growth. He believes that as digital currencies strengthen, more countries will follow the US example and include Bitcoin in their national reserves. This, he believes, will be an important step toward global recognition of the world's first cryptocurrency.
Therefore, Mow sees what's happening not as the beginning of a protracted decline, but as a temporary correction that is clearing the market of speculators. In his view, long-term investors have already demonstrated resilience, and it is they who will determine the direction of Bitcoin's next stage of growth.
