Home » Bitcoin Culture » BTC Glossary » Weak Hands
Weak hands is a term used to describe the people who capitulated and sold their Bitcoin at the first sign of trouble. Usually people with weak hands will be severely affected by FUD and are easily manipulated off their Bitcoin position.
A lot of noobs will fit in to the category of weak hands due to not doing enough research (DYOR) and then panicking as they let their sats slip through their fingers and into the hands of those who HODL.
