In my opinion when we talk about cryptocurrencies it is not known what can happen, it is really uncertain that prices fluctuate day by day, since in addition to being very high one day it can be very low, it should be noted that there may be crypto assets that people tend to follow , which have a lot of movement in the market (this almost always remains at a resistance) but in the same way these markets remain in a very inconstant ups and downs.

From my point of view there are two types of investors, the first is here that when they realize that the cryptocurrency is in a bearish state, they feel fear and prefer to sell their investment completely, this either generates little profit than expected or at worst the cases lose what was invested, and the second is the visionary who, when the cryptocurrency is in a bearish state, buys and waits for a bullish state to sell at a high price and obtain very good profits…. In my case it would be the second since I consider myself a winner and as they say "he who does not risk does not win".

A few days ago I talked about this a bit but I didn't go into depth as such and I wanted to see what you guys thought. What would you do in uncertain times?
Information extracted from: https://es.cointelegraph.com/news/how-to-redesign-our-portfolio-in-uncertain-times

If it's Bitcoin just HODL. It would be a stupid thing to sell in a bear market. BTC will still reach 100K one day if Putin won't drop the rocket and/or we won't have another COVID, there is always hope in this world.

I was about to say when I read the title of this: find something else to do or find something new in crypto to research. If you came for the technology or invested because you were interested in it, you can probably reignite that quite easily.

There are a few different types of investors too: ones that want stability and ones that want growth. If you're after stability, you're probably better off waiting to exit at break even or a bit of profit and then leaving. If you're after growth or you're interested in the technology you should already have some resilience and expectation you might be down at the start of your investment (eg exchange fees).

Position yourself in a way that you can take advantage of how the markets end up moving — regardless if it's up or down.

For some reason some people think that they should always go all in on one position — like all in on bitcoin/stocks, or all in on cash. You can always do 50-50!

Check the brand you favorite. Invest in that.

Kellogs? If you don't use mac donalds then don't boost it.

Keep buying BTC.
If you think it's going to be a bull run and go up get in now.
If you think it's going to be a bear market and go down, well buy some now and buy some later and you can cost average down if needed and if you are wrong and it goes up you are ahead.

Buy cheap sell high.

What's the issue?

-Dave

Are there other new rules?

I believe there are no other new rules apart from;

Buy low sell high.

If there is another rule, it is "Invest what you can afford to lose"

If you buy low and it is going lower, don't panic, relax and it will revert.
But if you buy high and it is going lower low, please panic.

Well an investment is an investment you do have two choices here considering you are able to take the loss of the amount then you usually try and keep your crypto on , which means that you can make much more profits in the future as well, but if you cannot afford to loose then you usually try and sell it does not matter what the price. The market is preety volatile at the moment, the price is crashing and pumping up and down in a matter of seconds, people think that it's honestly due to fed interest changes but I don't think so since it can be attributed to other factors might as easily. If you are investing in Bitcoins or getting paid in Bitcoins you always need to make sure to keep checking the exchange rate, it's quite important.

Actually liking the brand/service is definitely one factor that I'd consider when investing in (and/or just looking up) stocks, but honestly this is really oversimplifying it and can end up catastrophically if you make investment decisions willy-nilly.

In times of uncertainty, what you need is to have a clear goal on your investments. Even if it is difficult to actually predict the market, your goal should be clear enough to at least provide you some support on what road you are planning on the future.

It is recommend that you diversify your investments and assign each whether you should be focusing more on short or long-term investments. Cryptocurrencies, in general, are volatile in nature- that is why you should clearly categorize which investment you should withdraw.

It depends on the coin you invested on, if it is a new project then I wouldn't mind selling it all to avoid loses, even it doesn't give profits. Furthermore if you buy more at times of uncertainty, then you must be sure that the coin you are following can recover itself in due time. Bitcoin is an example, as we knew that it has gone to almost 3k USD after hitting ATH, but then look at it now, it is still on top traded and held by most people who are here in the crypto industry.

Leaving everything on for a while is a good thing for me because otherwise, I'll be thinking about it all day, and it can be stressful. I prefer to do something else instead of monitoring the market around the clock. I never forget to set the alarm on my cell phone if the price starts to move up so I can get back to the market as soon as possible or just watch the market conditions.

If it is investing in crypto, we use a certain period to hold the coins and only sell them if the price can go up very high in the future. But indeed, most investors can turn into a panic if they see the price drop drastically. So it's better to regulate your emotions and leave the market for a while.

There have been some studies in the past that show that in times of uncertainty the need for information goes up dramatically, this in return raises your stress levels and it could lead you to make some mistakes.

Since the markets are not something that we can control and they are going to move independently of what we want then in times of uncertainty it is better to take some time off and do something else with your time and try to avoid thinking too much about the markets, then after you have calmed down a little bit and you kept your distance from this market then you can begin to monitor it again.

In times of panic you hold what you have & buy more. That’s what the smart money does, that’s what winners do.
You do the opposite to what the majority does, that’s how you make money.

What I do in times of uncertainty don't really care. We are in Bitcoin and have experienced conditions that are said to be uncertain thousands of times. But the fact is it is only time or conditions where we are tested by crypto prices in the market. We are taught not only when the market is bullish, but when the market is bearish there are opinions saying that investing or trading in crypto does not guarantee profits. we already know that from the start of investing or trading there will be 2 pleasant and painful moments.

It's just a glimpse, if we believe in the long term why should we worry about the short-term momentum? ;D
 
Excessive worry is always felt by short-term traders. While long term holders are used as momentum to take more Bitcoins and go back to sleep.

no matter if bitcoin is $370, or $3.7k or $37k
at each era there is always a known 'value window' the price is sitting in at that time..

work out that value window of the time you are deciding what to do.
EG right now the value window is roughly $30k-$70k

meaning bitcoin right now to some might seem like 'bear' or 'doom' but to others seem like cheap/discount/good value

if you are in the fear state. dont sell all your investment. instead calculate how much money you actually NEED out. but leave some in to take advantage of future bull market returns

i personally would look at the window of $30k-$70k
and segment that value window into 4 quarters
and if the prices were in the top quarter ($60k-$70k) then id be more happy to exit 100%..
next quarter of window down($50k-$60k) 75% exit
next quarter of window down($40k-$50k) 50% exit
next quarter of window down($30k-$40k) 25% exit

if in the hype hapy state wanting to invest. the opoosite is true
deciding how much of your fiat to invest

and if the prices were
in the top quarter ($60k-$70k) then enter upto 25%(or very little)
next quarter of window down($50k-$60k) enter upto 50%
next quarter of window down($40k-$50k) enter upto 75%
next quarter of window down($30k-$40k) enter upto 100%

"Nothing ventured nothing gained."
That is a well-known phrase, it is also one of the situations that is most put into practice.
In this bearish time I would buy more bitcoin because I am one of the investors who see bitcoin as a long-term investment as a reserve or as a treasure.
I would also invest in an altcoin that can give me short-term profits to continue buying bitcoin.
The world crisis that is affecting the markets makes us look at bitcoin as a hope to overcome the imbalance that we may suffer as a result of it.

Do not panic.

When bitcoin drops 5% to 10%, this is the uncertainty becomes the thought of everyone specially the newbies. They think that it's the end and bitcoin won't recover anymore but they're all wrong.

Based on the experiences that me and the others have, it will gradually recover and go up again. So if you're uncertain on these times and you see the bloody market, you either buy while it's there or just do nothing which is better.

But if you're firmed in selling at losses, that's your decision.

In crypto, when the market becomes bearish, you should take advantage buy buying  those cheap coins with great potentials, and hold until you see their prices recovering. For bullish season, take the chance of selling what you have bought last season, as this bring huge profits if you start selling them more than the amount they were purchased. However, if you aim for profits regardless of the market's condition, then you should learn to take advantage both sides, because the truth is both bullish and bearish state of the market brings different opportunities to be profitable.

Volatility is one of the characteristics of cryptocurrency (except the stablecoins).
But, why people are still investing in cryptocurrency although they are so volatile and uncertain?
For me, the reason is:
- Depend on what cryptocurrencies we are investing in. If that is Bitcoin, we are sure that even if the price drops, it can rise up again moreover if we are holding for the long term.
- If they are top altcoins with strong and interesting fundamentals, we also believe that they may have bigger chances to survive and rise up again in the future in certain period.
- It is about the trust on some cryptocurrency
- We can utilize the volatility to earn some profits, volatility may be bad for us, but sometimes, it will also work well so much on us.
- That's the beauty also of the diversity

It is true that crypto market is completely uncertain. We all move over the trust, that the market will progress with time. Being volatile is the characteristics of bitcoin. People also love the volatility, because without this there is no earning access. When we think about the risks, there is risk with every form of investment. With cryptocurrency this is found little above other form of investment. For the risk, there is profiting access.

Fear should not accompany cryptocurrency investors, because if they fear automatically the decision goes wrong. I would suggest the long term users just leave the holding unlike the market variations. For short term holders and users who make unexpected selling it is good to hold partial investment in terms of stablecoins and partial in the form of bitcoin. This will help to maintain the portfolio without much disturbance caused due to the market crash.

Bitcoin reaching hundred thousand is good but can investors be patient until the time reach. Is not all investors that have the mind of leaving their bitcoin to stay to the bull market that will give bitcoin price another shape. People do sell their bitcoin when they have both minor problem and larger problem and they will not look after if the price is in bear market or in bull market and what they are interested is to Fitch the money and solve the problem at hand. People does not sell bitcoin un the time if bearish because they are afraid of invaluable regulations of Bitcoin price

Easy to say but when you are on that certain condition or situation then its something that cant really be done so easily because you would really be hesitating on proceeding on which you are in fear that the price might

plummet even more which is really a very common reaction or behavior thats why lots of times we do really miss out opportunities on making profits due into this one.Basing up on real experience

and ideas then its not really bad to make out such action or consideration on these kind of particular times.

Your example of two types of investor is limited and not applicable in the broad idea. What you rightly described above is an early investor and a late investor. Anyone that bought bitcoin at $62k would have panic and some sold off. But this cannot be said about people that bought at $26k. When you talk a wrong and false position, you cannot be comfortable with the market, that's it.
The only way out is that, if you are holding a shit coin, you can sell off because it might not revert again. But if you have bitcoin and still has spare cash to maintain yourself, hodl your btc.

If you are a good investor, you should be prepared for times of uncertainty, and don't act as if they will never happen and catch you by surprise. The latter is more typical of retail investors who invest following the advice of their friend/the banker/the trendy youtuber, etc.

Good investors know that bad times will come, and are prepared for it, managing liquidity well to buy cheap.

Indeed, the need for information will increase and at that time, false information will also circulate which can lead us to get wrong information about the state of the market and we can make wrong decisions. That's why it's better if we can be patient for a while and maybe taking some time off as you say would be better for us. With that leave, we can refresh our minds and enjoy more time for us to use for other things.

It is very useful for all of us because I have done it many times, especially when the market is volatile or uncertain. At least, I can come back well and can analyze with ease and not rush.

It is better not to deal with dubious alts at all, this is always a very big risk. If the bear market has started now and it lasts for several years, then many shitcoins may not survive, that is, bottom out and stay there. Bitcoin is a reliable investment, no matter how much its price falls, it always returns its positions and reaches new ATH. Those who bought bitcoin at 60k and more may be worried now, but what's the point of selling now when the price has fallen so much? The best option now would be only hold.

The best thing to do is to hold onto your investments in times of uncertainty. You never know what may happen. It’s best to be prepared to face any situation and convert it into a potential opportunity to receive returns.

What is happening in recent days with the main asset of cryptocurrencies is not something new, since it was created it has had certain falls that have caused uncertainty and fear in investors, especially those new to this area, leading them to take certain decisions that in one way or another affect them. However, it is estimated that this year bitcoin is having the worst relapse in history which happened from one moment to another to have losses of 15% to 19%, it is for this reason that I am not surprised by the tension that is currently being experienced , but as always nothing is written, anything can happen, so you should think intelligently, because if you decide to sell everything just for the terror of having losses with this currency you could regret it later. Personally, and knowing its great volatility I would risk investing a certain part.

it's true as you said, buying cheap selling high will definitely be a very extraordinary profit, when there is an opportunity then take advantage of every opportunity that comes into a big opportunity in the future, when uncertainty is sure most people will back down, so I will take the opportunity when people retreat, and I try to enter, indeed the risk is right in front of my eyes, but the risk I take will be a sweet dream in the future.

I feel very bad for Ukrainians and I feel they must have pondered on this point in last 2 months on this. I would like to hear prospective of any Ukrainian here how they managed their investments in these times of war.

Also if bitcoin really helped them in any way during the war. Personally I believe invest in technology, no matter in what form.
Its technology which is going to reward for sure. Invest in future tech like AI, Smart car companies,  Vaccine research firms and yes fir sure crypto

A good crypto investor isn't the one who worries about his holdings at times of uncertainty. A good crypto investor prepares for such times when the market is flourishing. Start preparing for the worst when everyone is ecstatic like they were at the dawn of 2021. Always think, analyze, predict, and act, or exercise patience, when needed. And then there won't be any "times of uncertainty."

And what are the steps for the "good crypto investor" must take? As a preparation for the correction?
If for example you're a long term hodler, what specific action would they make as a preparation for the bearish season?
Coz I believe the only preparation you will make when you're a long term hodler is your patience and knowledge. Once you sell on the dip, you'll probably going to lose big time eventually.

Patience is easier to say btw, but when your portfolio is down like 80%, it will actually cause you a worry lol.

Honestly speaking, I am not going to speak from others' points of view because I don't have any idea about others' opinions regarding this. But if I say about my point of view, then this is simple. I believe in the crypto space that if my choice is a good company, then I don't need to worry about ups and downs. I will just hold it for life time and when I need it, I will just cash out my profit. Because I believe the best things might take time but will definitely give results. And good company means real coins like bitcoin, ethereum, ltc, bnb, sol, luna, just buy and hold. That's my opinion and I hold others' opinions might be different. Thank you.

Your response is meaningful from my perspective.. it's nice to think before responding to comment, actually when you experience a loophole via investment, what you to do is to observe the length and time frame you may think the uncertainty time will consume,and you make your decision.. holding until it normalize is at safer side.. because irrespective the challenges provided you are still holding you most regain.

its all about doing whats best for you because in uncertainty times no one knows what will happen next, anyone who seems to know is just being hopeful maybe base on previous history. if you are buying during uncertain its a huge risk because things can go worse and at some point you might run out funds to buy especially if you dont plan well to DCA. personally if its about bitcoin then i can hodl and buy more at different levels and wait patiently for profits when it moons.

Yes, good investors don't panic whenever the price of bitcoin is decreasing in the market than to understand, that it will not last forever. Now that the price has decreased to $30k for those that missed the opportunity to buy more of bitcoin to use this period to buy and hold to wait for the price to move higher to make a good profit at the end of the market.  I think patience is the major instrument professional traders used to make a suitable profit from their trading.

those who dare to hold on indefinitely certainly have no risk and do not win. crypto is not always at the same price, if talking up or down, I would say that crypto over the last ten years has made enormous progress. with the percentage of prices up hundreds of percent. crypto is a long term investment, if we have taken a long term decision, I am sure it will not disappoint our patience in waiting.

Bitcoin and crypto investment is not a daily business. Every investment be it in a centralized or decentralized setting requires this high level of patience to Hodl no matter how bad the investment turns out to be mostly for reliable projects. I my few years hoarding is just the trick behind bitcoin investment. Getting multiple streams of income in a way can help distract your attention from constantly paying close watch at your coin. Allow the market do it's thing is a best investment plan

This is true, if you will have no other sources of income and you are only relying like for example in crypto, you will for sure have a headache when you see the market is in red position. So for me, you need to look outside the crypto market also, maybe start investing on tangible assets like precious metals or real-estate that you think will assist you when for example you totally lost your crypto investments, because we have no idea what will happen next in this market. Don't rely your income from only one, you can always look for other jobs that you think can be your added sources of income. Being prepared is always welcome as you won't regret when an unexpected circumstances happen.

this is the crypto market, the ups and downs, the bear market VS the bull market. so that makes us have to invest with full risk and mentally strong, only those who are weak want to seek wealth with one night and when he wakes up from his dream panicked by what happened.

Not only the weak one's, majority are with such thoughts. The ongoing market trend is predicted earlier when the price was around $39k. The low bottom to which this will fall isn't known, but the bear movement is confirmed. By the time the weaker ones should've moved the funds to stablecoins. This is the only thing that can be done. It is not when the market is uncertain, but whenever there is some long bearish move.

Despite of market's uncertainties, bitcoin will always recover after every fall, and will always seen dominating the market. So there's no way to sell it particularly if the market turns bearish. Keep hodling until you see satisfying price worth to sell.

Lots had been presuming that the strong support plays around 37-39k which it had been retested for how many times but the price do really recovers on that point but now we've seen some breakout which

is totally unpredictable and no one really knows on whats the actual or real reason for this such plummeting price condition.Is this something new? No its not but it cant really be avoided for you not to make out some

reactions specially if you do see your portfolio is really declining in terms of USD value which even myself do really have that feeling of panic but still having that good control.

just a suggestion
divide by the amount 50:50 in investing between investment and reserve funds in case one thing happens
investment at this time is indeed very difficult to withstand there must be doubts by looking at the situation but if you invest in the right place I think you don't need to worry because the storm will definitely cause rainbows again

As someone who works in finance and have for a very long time, I will share what I've been telling my clients these past couple months.  Selling in a down market out of fear is the absolute worst time to sell.  Technically you haven't or don't lose anything until you sell, that's when you have what's called a "realized loss" ( or realized gain for that matter ).  If you have to sell in a down market out of necessity, then you weren't properly established to begin with.  If you are..don't panic, things will get better, stick to your plan.

Fear does not accompany experienced investors. As for new investors, they enter the market with the mindset of making money but they don't realize that in order to make a lot of money, they have to take risks. And when things happen, fear makes them make wrong decisions.

Once fear takes over their mind, when they hold potential coins even bitcoin can't stop them from panicking and selling.

What else can you do other than holding? Why would you want to sell? You were supposed to invest what you can afford to lose. So during the time of uncertainty, if the market crashes completely and never recovers, it wouldn't matter to you if you lost everything. But that is very unlikely to happen. As long as you don't sell, you are fine and you aren't making any loss. Keep holding and in the long run, you will make profit. Don't fall for those FUDs.

You are giving the right advice to your clients, they shouldn’t just jump in and start selling their coins in the market, because they are not even sure how long they downturn in the market is going to last. They might sell their coin and end up missing a bigger opportunity that would follow next.

This is why it’s very important to hold on tight in such a time when the market is not doing really well, which is the situation of the market right now. I invested in the market and I’m not worried at all about the price, because I know there as time goes in one day I would be able to recover everything.

when you already use crypto as a place to invest with the aim of financial freedom, of course there will be risks. Everyone hopes now is the lowest price and is suitable to start investing, in fact they are still undecided. especially when the market continues to fall for a long time and that's where panic occurs, so those who are not ready to be patient and will release their assets at a loss. In fact, if you have started investing, you must be patient and not emotional with market fluctuations, you must have the principle of selling when you make a profit.

if i may ask, what is the uncertainty that is in bitcoin, when we are talking of cryptocurrency as a whole you should always note that bitcoin is different from other alternate currencies, the most acceptable step to take in time like this is for investors to hold, while those with the interest to make a buy should pull in, market must be volatile in other to be enjoyed, some loose while some make profits at the cause, with bitcoin there's nothing like uncertainty because this is part of the reality in bitcoin, and its not as test net project running a test run that should be doubted, hold your investment and don't invest on shitcoins.

And that is precisely one of the main reasons why most people cannot hold their coins, they invested in the market money they cannot afford to lose, and as such as soon as there is an important decrease in the price of bitcoin they panic and begin to take all kind of mistaken decisions.

And if to this we add there are a lot of people that like to use leverage then it is not difficult to see how their losses can be massive, to the point I would not be surprised if there has been a huge deal of margin calls when the price went down so fast a few days ago.

basically the decline in bitcoin at this time has been predicted and a lot of talk about in several telegroups, twitter and in this forum itself in some threads also some members say bitcoin will fall at 30k-28k because this is the strongest vibonage line we should be able to take some of these predictions as a comparison to make price penetration opportunities when this happens, don't be egotistical with price positive greed and if we are stuck maybe staking is the best way

In this time of uncertainty, I think everyone should be neutral. It is better not to invest in anything right now.I saw a lot of dumping in the market and bought some coins. Among them was Terra Luna. Today I have invested in Terra Luna and eaten a lot of bamboo.That is why it is better to sit in this uncertainty market without investing anything.People are not able to do any specific analysis of the current market. Everyone is in a lot of panic.

Just hold. After all, the market will always recover so there's no need to end up in panic selling. And besides, the market is always unpredictable as it seems. The bullish market will not always as it is, there will always a bear market expected after a bull run. So learn to adopt the changes in the market and ride with it, that way you will never be in a huge loss. And always be patient and stay being optimistic, that is a smart investor should be.

If you invested in LUNA today, it means, you are hoping that somewhere down the road they will recover. So why do you think LUNA can recover? Because before investing, better to do your own assessment where the project is heading to because that's your hard-earned money at stake. Do you think LUNA dev team has long-term plans on how to get out of this mess?

Don't blame anyone or any reason, bitcoin will go to 100k but it takes time, don't expect bitcoin to always increase without correction. The market is always volatile and that's how we take advantage of opportunities to make money. Bitcoin increased to $ 100k do you still dare to invest in bitcoin?, bitcoin price drop is an opportunity for us to have the opportunity to own bitcoin before its go to the moon.

Well, in the first place, there are two kinds of people here, those who are emotional and those who remain rational. If one is emotional in the face of uncertainty, there is nothing worth discussing. Fear and panic will consume him/her.

On the other hand, the rational investor will decide based on how he/she looks at the market and its possibilities. If he/she thinks there will be more dips to follow, selling might be an option to a portion of his/her portfolio, which will be bought back at a bottom price indicated in his/her analysis. Or he/she would prefer to HODL and wait for the storm to pass. Or perhaps he/she will simply wait for a point where buying more is best.

I also follow your advice I always make purchases when bitcoin investment is in uncertainty, I am very sure because there will be times when there will be people who will make demand and supply increase in the future, because we know when demand increases it is certain that the price of bitcoin also increased, because I also firmly believe the uncertainty will not affect the main benefits of bitcoin as a payment system.

How much influence uncertainty hits you depends on how strong you are in maintaining consistency and discipline in achieving your previous goals.
All you have to know is invest in bitcoin or crypto or wherever there is uncertainty and that's what you have to prepare which is actually easy, you just have to hold it or take advantage of the decline by making purchases in every drop to grow holdings.
There is no need to panic and do the wrong thing when the market is more likely to go down, if you study it well before starting everything will be fine, you just need to calm down and also endure it. Because all will pass and will rise again, only time and patience will answer all.

Its understandable for investors to be worried in times the market is in bearish. Seeing our assets losing their value is depressing especially if you're a new crypto investors who are not used to it. Thats why it depends on how we handle our emotion and our belief about the future of crypto. But what I always keep in mind is, as long as I didnt sell my Bitcoin then I wont lose anything. The price might be decreasing but not the Bitcoin I hold. There's no pain if we keep holding, we just need a lot of patience.

That's one bold opinion but that makes sense as long as you have invested some money that you haven't any plan to use in the upcoming months because we might be here in this bearish market longer than expected because after all, we are waiting for another bitcoin halving to save the price again. The good thing to do in a time like this is to forget the situation in the market and go to the place where you not gonna think about all of this for a while to relieve yourself from overthinking that might lead to distress.

Panicking ourselves usually ruins everything. It's best to be calm in order to avoid making a wrong decision that you'd have to regret in the long run. In bearish markets, you shouldn't spend your crypto since quick downturns in price will leave you with less holdings than before. If you want greater purchasing power in the future, accumulating and not spending is the right thing to do.

All in all, there are good coins on the market that are at a huge discount right now. They may never become this cheap if Bitcoin reaches a new All-time-high in price within the future. Terra may be going down, but if the UST stablecoin peg is restored, you can bet LUNA will bounce back to its original price levels. At less than $0.10 per coin, I'd say it's quite a bargain. Of course, there's always a risk when investing in crypto. As long as you don't invest more than what you can't afford to lose, you'll have nothing to worry about. Just my thoughts ;D

In uncertainty times like this, investors should do away with their investment on crypto assets except for bitcoin, meaning don't buy any other cryptocurrencies aside bitcoin, and those that have already invested should place a sell order before their own last hope bubble gets bursted, if you must invest then take this as an advantage to go with bitcoin because of the later future it stand to place right ahead of you, and if you have it already, hold it, no fear of missing out in bitcoin.

I think as long as it's one of the safe coins such as ETH, BNB, and others the top 5 CMC coins we don't need to make it bitcoin unless it's a shitcoin or token because when the current market for us has experienced it and it will change it just takes time
may be very risky but I hope only LUNA has bad luck in the current market

For we know that sometimes the crypto investment is uncertain, we must do the investment wisely and carefully through smart strategy. This may be not easy because sometimes, emotion is always influencing, the hype is around us, FUD is spreading, and many more other influences that can give a certain impact on our investment strategy.

But at least, we can consider about these following to face this uncertain market
- Invest only in a top coin that has proven for years to have great fundamentals. The one is actually Bitcoin that is the best choice, followed by Ethereum or maybe BNB and Matic, but once more, sometimes, market crash is like what happen to LUNA
- Never all in into one only coin with high amount. Because we don't know and are not sure which one will survive exactly.
- Never follow the hype and fomo market promotion

Whenever the market is bearish, the uncertainty is discussed. Regardless of the market, bitcoin is uncertain by its development. Some find it a big risk, being uncertainty is what brings in profit against the traditional market. The market is uncertain, but it have proven record on long term holding. To overcome uncertainty of the market it is good to do hold in the form of stablecoins or it is good to diversify the investment on more number of top list crypto.

As long as you are investing in those coins with long term profitability, whatever happens to the market, always chose to HODL. That is if you want to avoid losses and be profitable in the future. The market won't always be bullish, so we should have separate plans other than hodling in case the market stays being bearish.

Do you mean we must sell all altcoins right now and just keep Bitcoin? I don't think every person will agree about this way. Not all altcoins are bad to hold for a long time, so why we must hurry to sell them? I don't care about the market condition, I constantly keep my BNB and ETH in my wallets. I even buy more if there is a huge dump, I am optimistic about the future of these altcoins. Sure, holding BTC is a must, but doesn't mean having a single coin only. I believe diversifying asset is the best way to optimize the opportunity for profits in investment.

I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I sold *almost* everything into PAX Gold at 30K. Prior to that, I had sold a big chunk of  my portfolio into BNB, one of the biggest, safest bets in crypto. I moved it all into Gold when I saw Binance drop 15, 16 and nearly 20% per day. Gold will never 2x or 3x, but it will not drop 20 or 30% in a day either. I thought of moving to stable coins, with UST and Tether in trouble, I can't think of a worse time to go the stable coin route.

I think that if one invested long-term in Bitcoin, it's best to just sit through the period of the bear market, wait it out. If one has more money to invest, it's a good time to buy. If one has an emergency and really needs money, selling some, even at a loss, might be necessary. But selling just out of panic selling is a big mistake. That is, of course, if we're talking about Bitcoin, which so far recovered from each bear market and surpassed its previous ATH point, apart from the last one. If it's a coin that might just die and never recover, it's probably good to pull the money out when it's still possible.

The decision you are ever going to decide to make during the times of uncertainties is going to depend on your situation then. For someone who is in a really bad situation, they would have no other option than to sell some of their assets or all of them, so that they will be able to provide for their needs at the moment.

But, for someone who is quite OK, and what they invested in the market is an amount that they knew they were ready to spare, then this wouldn’t be much of a problem as they would be able to deal with it no matter what .

It really depends on the situation, especially if you’re in a real emergency. If we invested our extra money in Bitcoin, I would consider holding it because it will eventually come back stronger without warning. For short term altcoins that we have, it’s better to convert them into fiat especially those that are already in profit so that you won’t get liquidated even more (unless you have a very strong belief in that altcoin).

However, I am not a financial or investment advisor. These are just some of my own point of view in certain scenarios like this.   

When it comes to bitcoin I believe that every price is a good price to buy. If only I had enough fiat then I would be buying bitcoin every week.
Although I am accumulating but who doesn't want a lot of coins. So whether you buy at a higher price or lower, if the price went further down then just collect fiat and keep buying more.
BTC always recovers and goes to ATH. It's just a matter of time and then after that you are already in profits. So it depends on you when to sell.

Gold is known to be stable but not the same as a literal stable coin that rarely moves but I think that gold can easily times 2 of its price whenever the market is in good condition but 3x and above can be a little harder for a much stable asset like gold. Drops are also rare in gold (obviously) but when it do, I still don't think it can drop 30 percent as that can be too much already for it.

Good thing that you didn't invest in ust because it has an ongoing issue right now but other stable coins like tether are I think still fine. If you want a more safer stable coins then why not try busd? There is also dai which is decentralized. I rarely seen an issue with these two.

If you follow Kitco on YouTube you would know many of the experts outside crypto ( people with 30 and 40+ years of experience in financial investments ) are going back to Gold and Silver. Gold especially, is not only uncorrelated to Bitcoin and Stocks, but also known to do well when Bitcoin is doing badly, so that makes it a good alternative for the bear market. During a Bitcoin bull run, Gold has no chance, but who knows when that will start again, maybe late 2024.

You may have some point in what said about Gold is not correlated with Bitcoin but what you don't understand is that every asset correlates at some point.
Having said that, I believe you're making the exact mistake some people made during the bearish market which is the time you invest in something like Bitcoin not that you invest in something somehow stable in price like Gold this is what most crypto millionaires did

Assuming I don’t have all my bitcoins in one position, I’d hold it. Of course I would calculate the risk before investing in the first hand. If I can’t handle the risk of that asset, it’s not the right time for me to invest in it. Simple.

If you didn't sell before at this point the smarter thing to do is hodling until the market recovers again. Maybe it'll take a few months, maybe more than one year, but it's gonna happen. I never understood those people who don't sell when bitcoin goes up and then, when it starts going down, they get scared and even sell losing money.

a very common thing to do when the market is like it is today is to hold out until the market recovers and this we can do if there is a big opportunity in our assets that gives a 75% guarantee to return but if the assets we have have no potential it is possible to sell them is a better thing to suppress greater loss or before it becomes ashes

When you do have that sufficient experience in the market then this is something that you could really know on what you should gonna do with your investment on which you will really be holding and never intent to
have some panic selling kind of action which is something that really could be done by most experienced people but not for newbies or just new into this unpredictable market.It couldnt really be avoided
to have those kind of negative thoughts since we are just humans and once we do see our portfolio is dropping or having that deep negatives then it couldnt really be
avoided to have those kind of thoughts in mind.

In times of uncertainty, if you don't have a plan or a goal, you have a hard time. In me, investments should be made according to certain goals or according to certain strategies. If you plan your investments this way, you'll have less stress on reaching your goals. If you're hodling, you'll continue to hodl, and if you're trading, you'll continue to trade. you will be sure of yourself.

for now I'm holding back and waiting until the market recovers and gives optimal results, that's what is recommended because the minus has reached 50%. And don't ever blame others when we're in a minus because actually the decision is in our own hands

Definitely, you can't blame anyone on what is happening in your portfolio because the decisions are made by you. For now, if you are holding solid alts, what you can do is just sit back and observe the market, selling would only give you losses. So if you have no urgent financial needs, hold on and wait for the market to recover.

I am a more long term investor and don't like to sell my coins at the first sight of a bear market. Finding the right time to sell and to buy is very hard, that is why HODL investing is so attractive to many investors. Dealing with uncertainty is part of the game and it shouldn't be a quick stomach decision when to sell. First of all it depends on what do you expect from the future. Selling now all the crypto coins just to buy them back in a few months at a similar level doesn't seem like a good idea. We should also have a plan what to do with the money after sell, holding large amounts of cash is also not a good idea at the moment. If there is no existential threat to our investment than it is best to hold on in my opinion.

One thing for sure is that Bitcoin never disappoints. I cannot say the same about shitcoins such as LUNA or SHIBA INU. With a proven record of development and innovation, Bitcoin's demand should only become higher over time. That, coupled with a limited supply should make the cryptocurrency a lot more valuable in the future. I'd recommend anyone to keep investing in Bitcoin especially during a bear market in order to reap huge rewards in the future.

Losers are going to sell, but those who're smart will accumulate more coins no matter what. As long as there's a strong community backing Bitcoin every step of the way, the cryptocurrency will last for a very long time. Just my opinion :)

My only fear regards bitcoin is that internet becomes unavailable at some moment of our history due to massive wars or censorship. That is the kind of uncertainty I most fear when thinking if I should keep my investments in bitcoin or not. In extreme situations I'm not sure if digital goods are a good idea, so it's preferable to focus in physical intrinsic stuff, which you can have direct access to, without having to rely on a third party service or item to transact or deal with.

On the other hand, in a chaotic scenario like that, bitcoin would fit as a decent choice to be used to help rebuilding the world, once the storm is over and new times begin. Consequently it might be worthful to keep holding even when the scenario looks the worst possible.

What do you think we should do with our investments in times of uncertainty?

Nothing. If you hold, keep HODLing. If you buy, keep buying. Don't do as many people do, when the price goes down, they get scared, think it is going to go to 0 and don't buy. Only to regret it when the price goes up again.

Now is the time to buy. And if you already have a good amount that you hold, keep holding.

Yes I also agree as you said, but different people have different opinions and thoughts, so it's not wrong if they feel afraid and it's more to secure their money than later on, they feel they have lost their money, it's better for them to hold on and keep the money just.

In terms of uncertainty, is better you sell off your coins at that moment. Is better to lose a little percentage of the money than losing a large percentage of it. But this still draws back to the type of coin you’re holding. Shit coins are better sold off immediately if  there is uncertainty that its gonna fall down in its worth but stable coins and the likes of BTC, Etherium, BNB can still be kept because those coins will definitely pump back as the market keeps going.

The simplest explanation for that is that, these weak hands made the purchase when Bitcoin is in the process of hitting the ATH or in the process of recovery after these weak hands found out that Bitcoin is capable of these unprecedented rise.
And then when Bitcoin starts correction, they tend to freak out and withdraw immediately to avoid further lose and then come here posting about "Why Bitcoin is dying?" or "Is Bitcoin would still be able to recover?" lol this sounds hilarious but it's kinda true.

Obviously bitcoin is people's choice of cryptocurrency to invest in. Bitcoin has proven time over time that it is the best cryptocurrency to hold in the long term.
Although there are many altcoins to invest currently but bitcoin is most of the people's first choice.
It is still holding a dominance of 42% versus all the altcoins combined so this shows that even during a down trend like this it still holds it's value at best.
Accumulating bitcoin in a down trend is the best thing to do and I think people should buy as much BTC as they can before the price goes back above $45k.

That's what I was thinking when there were rumors that WWIII will broke out due to Russia/Ukarine conflict. In such scenarios it will be impossible to come in contact with your bitcoin and for daily living we need some physical stuff that has some value. But then again, in which physical asset to convert is again a big question as fiat will be useless in case we have uncertain situation like WWIII.

In a time of uncertainty, you should be confident and invest when others panic but be panicked when others are confident because the big fish will play their dirty tricks.

No good thing lasts forever and it's like the saying "every huge opportunity comes with huge risk" and it is either to join the race or get run over.
Technically, nobody want war even Putin either doesn't want it, but his political rules wanted it because he ^Putin wants Russia to get back to the world stage in terms of superpower ever since the fall of the Soviet Union.

Nevertheless, Bitcoin is the future of the payment system and every opportunity it presents now will be a blessing in years to come.
It is better to focus on good things to come than worry about something you cant control which will only make you lose the opportunity thats right in front of you.

In an uncertain time, hodl is what I do, this is what I've learned some months back, and I learnt it the hard way.
Like the op said, am that kind of investor that used fear uncertainties like we currently are right now, what I used to do is to sell off all my crypto holdings ones the entire market begins to bleed, and withdraw the money to my bank hoping to send the money back to crypto later and buy back when the market has become green again, but this never happens cus I end up spending all the money on useless things, and I end up loosing on huge profits which I would have made if only I held unto my bag.

Right now, I've learnt to hodl when the market is full of uncertainties, when the market is down is the best time to buy and hold, and if it keeps going down, then make sure to reserve some money that you will use to keep my the dip, hodl until another bull seasons comes on.

In investing, especially in cryptocurrencies, uncertainty becomes unavoidable even when the market is stable, it can surprise us at times. And that is a normal thing and will continue to happen here, our skills in analyzing the market are important, not only that, we must pay attention to other fundamental things so that we don't experience something unwanted.

For me personally, the uncertainty that can only be experienced for a while is an acceptable level of risk, in order to withstand the trend and the bear market that can affect, I almost don't look at the price value your investment portfolio.  After going through the cycles of 2018, 2019 noa helps me better visualize opportunities for this uncertainty

               It is indeed true that predicting the exact price of bitcoin at exact times is difficult if not impossible. But even so, predicting a range becomes possible and more easier depending on the ways you go about it like how you use tools or indicators to help read price movements and such. Which, gives way for better educated guesses/predictions to help create better plans/strategies that can lead to big or small profits. Of course, it does not apply for signal subscribers or gamble traders. Oh well, at the end of the day, finding ways that suits you most by experience is what veterans bank on while some, specially on bitcoin rely on long term holding while buying whenever they have extra funds to spare or on good dips.

 In difficult periods when the market is falling, it is worth using this opportunity to buy bitcoin at a low price. The fall was predictable, the only question was when it would come. After a bull market, a bear market always comes, this is normal, it has always been like this and so far everything is repeating itself without changes. It's always an opportunity, it's just a matter of whether you take advantage of it or not.

Even it's unfavored, I'm looking at the price just to monitor it. Just endure all the pain in times of uncertainty and think of this time as part of the growth that you'll have as it's a hard process to be at the top again. Imagine of it that it has to happen no matter what you think of it.
Being emotional will not help you grow on this market but it's just going to pull you down and will put your efforts into vain if you allow to hit you badly.

* Keeping strong
 * have faith
 * keep patient

We sometimes need some break-out from crypto. Seeing the market daily and only just declines certainly affects our minds and could lead to emotional stress. At this difficult time, many people had suffered losses as they can't manage to hold their emotions, kinda hard if we keep checking our portfolio. Staying away from it for a while will help and save us from thinking negatively and uncertainty.

now the price of bitcoin is down again, this is the right time to buy bitcoin, in 2018 the price of bitcoin is also going down. Many people have lost faith in bitcoin. This history repeats itself in 2022. When people panic sell, it is an opportunity to profit in the future.

Yes, and I think that is the primary driver as we look at this and just come back to sort of where we are in cycle and the fact that the things that we've seen happen are just a continuation of trends that have been going on for some time. And so when you think about the set of risk that we're facing and the fact that risk's turned the corner with interest rates up, volatility up, and commodities moving more, that is a pretty significant catalyst to demand for different types of capital assets like Bitcoin.

I would advise you to increase the size of your investment portfolio. I think it's pretty simple here. In difficult times, it is better to have a larger investment portfolio.

Not selling is the best we can do during those times. If you have been into the crypto space for some years now then you should get used to it. Market will always not go up the way we want. Erase all crypto related apps during bear or capitulation season where too much fuds are happening scaring more people to sell their cryptos. You are just giving the whales a to buy at the bottom by selling at loss.

On bright side yes, stability should be hunted in both the cases actually because crypto as such isn't favourable when it comes to the bearish trend. With the crypto falling down, people start with fomo reactions and sell off because they don't think straight. Most of the time they are scared that their investment would go zero but that does not happen if they are long term holders.

Some of them actually realise this way later when they sell it but they are the ones who would make a come back in the later times and stay firm about their investment.

It's pretty much paid lesson when they sell in the bearish trend.

Increasing the size of your portfolio is wrong when you have not handle the one you have very nice, for investment you can invest in a place you know that if you lose it will not affect you seriously, any investment you are to carry out make sure you have zero mind that anything that happens to it you can bear it, you can invest what you can afford to lose not what will give you trouble when you lose it, start with low quantity and know your ability

It's the normal thing to do when we're experiencing uncertainty in the market. We should take advantage and be greedy to acquire more for our assets and investment. The thing is simple but not all of us are willing to take risks at that time when the market is full of speculation about being uncertain. It is affecting every investor because most of us want to be sure with our money and if it'll make much profit. But if you happen to target to grow with your portfolio and asset, you'll definitely buy more.

Yes you are correct but is not everybody that have the mind set of holding currency for long time, people who holding for long time is for people who have extra money why some people panic and sell is because they have no money to survive and they rush and sell their coin and get money, people who get money and rich for bitcoins is people who large amount of money for the industry, selling with pressure alway push people for wrong side

You will probably invest in both anyway by default as funds must be kept out of investments or in liquid and stable investments (eg savings accounts) to be used in emergencies..

Aside from that, if you diversify your risky assets enough you might be able to make better returns than stabler ones but I'd not advocate for putting a majority into crypto and taking risks for the sake of it also won't pay off (they have to have already grown and become notable - eg there are companies in the S&P500 that haven't grown much or at all in value in quite a while or often wipe out their profits.

I know their are still lot's of people that still panic and sell their coins during the bear market which is completely rubbish, I believe the only people that should panic when their is a bear market are the newbies, the people that are just entering the crypto space and have not experienced bear market before, but if you are into cryptocurrency and you are still scared of bear market that's completely wrong, if you are holding a good coin, most expecially if you are holding bitcoin we all know it will definitely bounce back but it might take time so you don't have to sell at lost.

No time to sell but hodl. Otherwise, you end up selling at a loss. However, it also depends like when you think you are hodling some sort of shitcoins, i think it's better to sell them right away before they ran out of value and consider them as dead coins. But if you are investing in bitcoin, then hodl it until you see the market is recovering and bitcoin is back again surging to reach its new ATH. That is if you still want to be more profitable with bitcoin in the next couple of months or even a year.

There is a reason why we've got dollar pegged currencies or reserved currencies in the stable coins. Uncertainty moments which are users specific if one of that reason. Stable coins serves as a store of value with them developers requiring us to believe that, there is an actual dollar set aside for every stablecoin out there and of course, we know better haven't been involved in cryptos for some time.
Well, stable coins saves you the pressure that comes with making accurate analysis and could be where you stand when you've got no idea on either the market is going to go bearish or bullish. You just don't get to make any profit or lose, just stagnant.

But the dilemma when it comes to stablecoins is that the ultimate truth about the assets they are pegged to. We are just relying on the third party audit results about their assets. This is the reason that if there will be a catastrophe that is about to come, we won't know it. Because we don't know the actual truth. Are we confident that these audit companies are indeed 100% trustworthy? Most of the time, it is already too late for the holders to recover their losses. So for me, we should not go all in in crypto, set aside some for tangible assets, whether in real -estate, precious metals or whatever you can afford to. So long it is outside of this market, if that's possible.

Talking about uncertainty, I think this is actually something that makes you unsure. nothing is uncertain because when we decide to be in crypto especially in bitcoin of course we know for sure that this is something that is profitable.
Those who think that this is an uncertainty are short-sighted by looking at the current price even though if we are sure from the start that we are in bitcoin for the long term then I feel this is still normal because something like this is quite natural to happen

Well, in fact, we know and are very confident that Bitcoin will recover but are not sure of these altcoins. Now if we are investing these coins, it is likely hard to remove from being worried and uncertain but we shouldn't have to let our emotions control us. If we could still see any hopes that it will pump, holding them is the only way to do it. However, we don't have to be confident enough that it will be going like that, yet it is to prepare ourselves in the case it losses its value more.

Altcoins are still good enough for only a few of them and do not refer to Shitcoins.
Right now they will still be influenced by bitcoin and that's for sure but if this makes you not sure about it, the logic is don't go there because indeed you won't feel worried if you don't want to worry too much about it.
But if you do enter into an altcoin, then you already know the consequences, so why not worry about it again. After all, it's a decision that you make because back again, in this case, there are risks for each mate

actually 100k is so near to come and we will be making  more of this movement in the coming years , in 2021 there is only 32k that we need before that 100k breaking so what would be the next pump will do?
maybe more than that and i am expecting at least 200k ?
 ;)
the word itself stands,. Uncertain is also Unsure at least you understand what you are saying lol.

Honestly, I never had too much money, I am not a poor person that barely lives, I have enough to survive but I can't even buy a car for example, so it is obvious that I am not rich at all. But at the end of the day, I still invested and holding and not worried about these price drops. From the peak, the drop is bigger than 50% and I am still fine, why and how?

Well, simply because I have seen crypto drop all the time and I have seen it recover time and time again and this is why I never got worried about it. That could be the biggest reason and this is why I do not think that it will ever matter to me. This is just my idea though, not everyone has to be like me.

This is the general strategy for any crypto investor,the question is,do you have the capital to incease your investment now?
Don't use your life saving and necessary money to buy crypto,because we don't know what will happen in the future.

Bitcoin uncertainty means nothing to me. I hope many people don't think that bitcoin is an uncertain investment.
I used to think like that, but after I think and use a sincere heart to invest or own bitcoin, I must have a strong belief. Therefore I never fear or doubt about bitcoin even in bearish situations I am not worried, because I believe all traces of bitcoin will repeat itself, and this is where our patience is tested.
so owning bitcoins requires a lot of patience and also a strong belief not to judge them with uncertainty because bitcoin is for them as i mentioned and also for the long term, and now is the right time to buy and grow ownership and Hodl.

I concur to this, to the fact that one cannot be confident enough in these audit companies to be 100% trustworthy but, most have been been on course with preservation of coin values and haven't raised much of a flag for we not to trust them except for the questions on how many of these coins are actually pegged to a real dollar. You never can be so sure and  have to accept the risk factor in using there services still. You can't do business without risk.

Speaking of which, about diversifying from cryptos to some physical entity assets, yeah it might seem the right way and still it rises and falls and supposedly, it was on the down side when  crypto started rising, you still get to lose a little in selling to buy and the idea behind diversifying was to preserve value. In that, you've failed.

I think the right thing here isn't about swapping between investments but, having a portfolio that accommodates several streams and utilises the instruments that exists within the field through the rises and falls of the field. A back and forth swap could result in some loses as well and I think it's actually the more risky.

Hodling our investments would be the best thing to do in times of uncertainties. However, if we are hodling shitcoins, i don't think they are still worth hodling as they won't grow their value anyways but for bitcoin and with the rest of potential and established altcoins, we should hodl them instead of panic selling because once we do that, we are selling them in exchange for a loss as its like we only sell them when their prices are low and dropping.

Basing up on your post history then you are simply trying to shill out or recommend that AMArkets which i do make out some research that this was a FX broker where reputation isnt really that bad either.

Demo accounts is good for back testing as long you do make out some analysis whether it goes through live or demo then its up to you rather than doing nothing at all.
Uncertainty or doubts could really put you up on a situation where you do really hesitate on taking such action because fear would really be on mind.

Exactly what I am doing now. Doing the old school DCA method with my extra “not beer” money in these uncertain times. I just don’t care where BTC goes right now. Last month I have bought BTC when it was above $30k. Now at $31.5k, I am still gonna buy every month with only an amount that I can afford to lose.

Apart from hodling, buying is more recommended when others are feeling uncertain, that is because people are likely going to sell making the market more dumped but if you are wise and you are well experienced, you will take the opportunity because you know that the market can recover sooner or later. I don't recommend erasing your crypto apps because that's hassle and what if you have lots of them?

You will be needing to install them again one by one and erasing them is also risky because what if you didn't backed up your access to those apps or you simply forget it? If you have a self control, you can always survive the temptation.

Firstly what made you invest in what you invested/Holding? Also what was your agenda/goal/target when you invested in it. I don’t think I can advice you on an investment you made that I am not aware of, so I would tell you nonetheless that you should still to your believe most especially if it’s Bitcoin or any top coins, and if not then the decision is totally yours, I know people who had cut their loss and saw that was the right decision and some discovered the opposite.

For long term investment? Of course what you have done is the best way to earn bitcoins. Doing a DCA, always considering the amount you can afford to lose and waiting for the payoff is something new investors here who don't have much experience are hoping to do. But there are concerns that they may find it difficult to make a decision mainly due to price uncertainty. It is difficult to get confirmation that the bearish have passed and the market is starting to rise, but of course it is best to accumulate bitcoin with the suggested strategy.

Those who dare to hold on indefinitely face little risk and are unlikely to win. Although crypto may not constantly trade at the same price, I believe it has made tremendous growth in the last ten years. With pricing percentages rising by hundreds of percent Crypto is a long-term investment, and if we've made the decision to wait, I'm confident it will not disappoint us.

It is question about what is better small piece of gold in the wallet, a roadside rock with potentially high quantity of gold (another crypto), or small risk investments.  It is about personal feeling because it is a sort of game.

Your actions depends on how much you have seen, read, known about the crypto pattern. To be honest, the second scenario is more better but its technical. For me it's the best bet and one need to pick and choose wisely. I feel we are close to bottom and reversal at this stage except we are going to see the unimaginable.

You need to be ready to face any kind of uncertainty in this market. It takes time to understand how to make the right moves.

It is hard to predict the future during such uncertain times we have right now. Everything seems possible, the Bitcoin price could remain on the 20,000 USD level and only fluctuate around it for the next several month, it could also be that the price finally recovers and we see much higher price during autumn, or the worst case scenario where price would fall even lower. For me all of these possible outcomes are fine and won't change much of my actions. I am not going to sell any coins this year, it doesn't matter how low price would fall I am investing long term. So if prices rise again, I am happy and hold, if prices stay the same I will hold and keep buying more and if prices drop more I will buy more. In the end all of the possible outcomes this year have some positive effects.  We need to stay calm and focus on our goals during uncertain times.

It is better to HODL at such moments when you are not sure about the market,.rather than selling or buying.

The most important thing is to have an investment first, and if you have, in times of uncertainty, your investment is your sage haven. I always tell people that the essence of investments, business, works is to earn a living, live comfortably for the time being that you exist. One cannot be struggling to eat and at the same time want to buy a house. It is fine that during time of uncertainty, you take care of yourself and family with your investment.

In times of uncertainty, it is better to hold on to your current investments. Changing the course of events will only bring you loss. Just hold on, be patient. Watch the market and spot the right time to make a move. Mistakes are normal, but repetition just increases chances of risk. There is hope.

There simply isn't a right or wrong way to do things when investments start going sideways.

Every person has different financial needs. It's easy to tell people don't sell your coins in a bear market and when the prices are falling, but we don't know what state they are in. We don't know what needs they have and how much they rely on those assets no matter their current value. Having a steady and secure source of income each month can make it easy for you to not be worried about the current market conditions and not look at the price. But what if your financial well-being greatly depends on the money you make from Bitcoin? It doesn't matter how you make that money. When money gets tight, you sell what you can to keep your head about water. Unfortunately, for many that also means selling bitcoin with a huge loss.     

Seeing such a bad market situation always makes me sad, but it never makes me panic sell. I'd rather take a loan and use it to cover my expenses than give my coins away for cheap.

So, I say there's no uncertainty. I'm certain bitcoin will do good in the coming years. If you have confidence in your investments like me, you can ignore the market conditions because you're not a market participant. My coins aren't going to exchanges anytime soon so I choose not to participate and market conditions don't bother me.

It's already given. Can't you see the question? If you don't have an investment well you are exempted to this problem. You won't need to worry in times of crisis and other hardships in life. The uncertainty that the op mean is all about in our investments. You cannot say that your investment will save you if it's also affected. This is exactly what happening now here in cryptos.

People think before that it was a safe haven which can save them but they changed their minds after witnessing that cryptos dumps a lot and stays stagnant for a long time. This is why it's important to not confidently invest all your money onto something even if you think it's safe but you should keep some for yourself, in the banks and also put on other types of assets as well.

Whenever you do have those wrong mindset or beliefs then you would be surely be messing up with your financial plans or situations because you would be minding about assured profits which we know

that it cant really be that possible that it would be always resulting into positive or gains thats why it would really be always ideal if you do have other sources of income aside from crypto investments
which you do able to make yourself make out some adjustments on times like these.

We cant really be having a uprising market like forever because thats now how this market works and you should really bare that in mind.

I guess even if we sell our coins at the wrong time, the fact that we used that for our own benefit, that won't be considered a total loss. Yes, we missed a huge profit in the future, but sometimes its not the future that matters, but on how we can survive at the present. Hodling is good as its the best thing to do in times of uncertainty, but selling your bitcoin as well is not wrong either as long as you still intend to buy another bitcoin when your funds are already stable.

agree, it is a fact that happened. Everyone's financial needs are different, they cannot be the same. When a bear market occurs and we need money to use for investment, we inevitably have to sell it to survive.
But the mistake made when investing is using money that will be used for other necessities of life. If we can separate between investment money and money for needs, of course doing a cut loss will not happen. But it all depends on each person, because the risk will only be borne alone. Doing good management will save investment assets in the future.

It doesn't have to be the money you invested in Bitcoin. I wasn't referring to that specifically. Imagine that you work partially for bitcoin or you provide certain services in exchange for bitcoin. Let's say 70% of your monthly income is in fiat, and 30% is Bitcoin. Up until a few months ago, those 70% were enough to cover your needs, but with the rising prices of food, gas, petrol, the inflation, and everything else that has been going on, suddenly that's not enough. Even though Bitcoin is performing badly right now, you might have to dig into those reserves despite selling for a loss.

This called with how effective with money controlling when investing with cryptocurrency, we have different financial cases and some investor not really care when bear market happening because they still have income from other way. But we don't have other income need to control and manage great financial before investing with bitcoin or choose altcoin as investment assets. Example need to spent 40% from all our assets in fiat and use it for saving fund when some time bitcoin drop, we still have money for daily needed actually when you have family and children, every day you spent money but when market bear and not have saving fund will be panic what have to do.

We know that cryptocurrency is the highest risk and uncertain investment platform. There are two seasons in crypto currency investment platform one is bull market and the other is bear market. Currently we are located in bearmarket and it's hard to say where this bearmarket will stabilize. Therefore, if investing in this uncertainty, the investor should understand the investment, different experts have suggested different ways to invest, especially at this time many are saying that 5-10% of total investment portfolio should be worthy. But it mainly depends on how much you can afford to lose. If the market is positive from here then those who will take the risk have the possibility of getting good amount.

You started at 2014 and now a legendary. With that long years of stay, you seem to be not used of the market but anyway it is not wrong to be emotional sometimes because at the end of the day, we are still a human, not robots which don't have an emotion.

Just don't over do it tho because it seems not right when someone sees you like that especially to the newbies. Taking a loan can give us a headache and why take a loan when you still have a money to be pulled out? Our coins must be used sometimes and not just for display purposes only. I think that answer of mine suits best on the op's question as people invest in crypto so that they can get something in times of uncertainty.

We are just humans where emotions could really be that common and even how experienced we are we do still ending up on making bad decisions due to emotion which is something inevitable sometimes.

We do make out decisions which we do see that it would really be good for us and basing up on what he had mentioned on taking a loan rather than on panic sell then i would do the same thing
as long that investment is involved then it would be a good call rather than doing decisions which you cant really turn it back once losses had been realized.

Times of uncertainty do commonly happens on a market decline which cant really be avoided even if you are fully aware.

Emotions don't equal panic. I have emotions, I'm not a robot, but I never panic, be it a car accident or a market crash. I get scared, sure, but I'm somehow able to keep it steady and think before I act.
We are all different, I 'm not telling you what you should do, but what I'd do in this situation.


What's there to overdo? Overhold bitcoin? I'll be honest here, I'll probably do it. I believe in bitcoin so much that if it came crashing down to 1k USD right now I wouldn't sell, I'd buy more. Time will tell if it's the right decision, but that's my way to go, you don't have to follow me.

If I run out of cash I'll try to get another job to cover my expenses and if that's not enough I'll take a loan. Why? Because I feel like sub 20k is a level that I'll never sell my bitcoins. That price doesn't satisfy me and it doesn't matter that I could get money this way. There are other ways to make them too.

As soon as the big powers calm down and the wars stop, crypto will start roaring. In this case, it will surpass any previous high value. It is believed that the upcoming bull run may add new dimensions to cryptocurrencies. It can break all records so far and set a new all-time high. In this case it can exceed $100000 dollars.

In my opinion, holding onto money during uncertain times is a losing tactic. Holding cash "guarantees losing purchasing power," says Buffet. You do not want to be hoarding cash in the current situation, when central banks are continuously printing money. I believe that certain assets that everyone should hold in their portfolio are bitcoin, gold, and real estate. I firmly believe that it serves as insurance, if nothing else. You can never make a mistake with this investment. They protect investors from the market and are effective insurance policies.

Indeed, the current market movements are very difficult to predict, in my opinion, this is because the world's economic conditions are unstable and in addition to the conflict between Russia and Ukraine and Covid 19, it has not been resolved because it is still on this earth. That's why the current market conditions are difficult to predict. but in my opinion, if we invest before there is a profit, we should not sell it, just hold on. because later the price will come back. that's why I think it's safer to invest in bitcoin. because bitcoin is a good future asset, maybe at this time the price of bitcoin is going down, but in my opinion if the world economy has recovered and is up, I think the price of bitcoin will be high again.

The economy could be looking bleak and terrible right now but that doesn't change the fact that when it is low is the best time to invest.

The prices of all this current situation would be a bit of a terrible situation no matter what, pandemic caused a lot of financial trouble with inflation and printing of money, so money is less valuable right now and that less valuable money also resulted with bitcoin going down, so you should be earning more, and could buy more bitcoins and wait for it to go even higher. That way we could end up with a little bit of a profit and I understand that it would be easier to wait instead of just worry about what is going to happen. This is the better path for sure.
