After the 2017-18 craze, I don't know if HODLers have gained anything on stock market. It has almost followed the broad stock market movement these days.
Look at the covid crash in March, coins like BTC also dipped and peformed worse than indexes like Nasdaq while traditional currency hedge gold rose in value when both of them were crashing.
Really depends when you bought. Using today's date..
1 Yr Holders
ETH +120%
BTC +51%
SP500 +12%
2 Yr Holders
ETH +87.5%
BTC +92%
SP500 +24%
It's probably not fair to go back 5 years as ETH is up over 62,000% which make the other 2 look like a straight line & it would be past the date of your argument.
Here's a Yahoo URL that should allow you to compare different items though.
