Can I Hold Crypto Long Term?

Yes. You can hold cryptocurrency for the long term. Many people buy and hold Bitcoin or Ethereum for years. For long-term holdings, consider moving large amounts to your own wallet (hardware or non-custodial) so you control the keys. Keep your seed phrase safe and offline. In India, tax applies when you sell or swap, not while you hold. So when you eventually sell, you will need records of purchase date and cost to calculate gains. Do not invest more than you can afford to lose; crypto can stay volatile for a long time.
