If you do not spend, your holding stash became worthless in time. Bitcoin is money and money must flow, move, circulate, otherwise is not money anymore.
But in the same time Bitcoin is savings technology. So if you spend them wisely, you could save some for later, to spend on things that really matter. So don't spend them on crap things, but only on things that you really need. Spend them ONLY in places where merchants accept them directly, with no intermediary. No crappy things like Coinbase or Bitpay or other 3rd parties that do not let merchants to hold the sats and exchange them immediately on fiat.
Support the real bitcoin merchants, not the opportunists that only want to replace Paypal with Strike or other crap.
