The Bear may be good for us

[Reid]

It is getting hard to buy now with the expensive price. Maybe some of the investors are now scared that it might fall again after they bought. Happened before 20k dollars and it could always happen again.

But for new investors it may be a good chance to be a part of it and somehow manage to make a little profit with a bull market.

We are in a bear market, (granted, it's easing up a bit), but it's a huge dip, since we had the $20,000 ATH hit sometime in December 2017. So here are the Silver linings in the dark clouds..
More FUD resistance. Well consider this just like a vaccination. We all have that Fever that follows vaccines. But the good thing is it shoots up our resistance, our nerve. To handle bad news
Okay, at least with passing time, we are seeing less of useless forks. Why? I truly believe by next bull run, most useless forks will fail to gain use and market shares and would eventually drop off, and original ideas will dominate
No more shitcoin.  Coins like bitcoin gold, diamond, platinum, sapphire, ruby etc etc. If this market continues for a 1 more month, we would be rid of shitcoins.
No more moon-heads. This particular issue can really rankle me up. You won't read 2 posts without a 'when moon' or 'when lambo' post popping up somehow. Especially in Telegram threads
Mass adoption. Technology will advance. I With tech advance we will see adoption rates going up. Technology like Ripple, Nano would get some look-ins
The real HODLers would be shown. And this would show peeps that really believe in projects. Not just 'get-rich-quick' guys

Indeed, this last drop that we had in prices really shows who are the people that are ture to the cause of the cryptocurrency, ever since bitcoin started going up and getting popular more and more people have invested in it, and some of them don't have any idea about how it works and what it is truly all about they just came for the money, so as soon as they see it drop they started complaining about it, and saying how it is dead, only the few who truly believe in it stayed.

And for those people who stayed will surely be benefited when bitcoins price tends to rise up once again.I agree that there are lots of investors in the past where they do only get in just for the sake on making money and now the price had dropped which do cause on shaking off weak hands and short terms money earners without believing any tech and potential will surely panic sell no matter what.

[thelemot]

agree with your opinion not only buy and sell at the time the price rises, but more to investment considering the crypto that just globally in 2017 makes people think this is a place to seek wealth, but this is technological progress, not just looking for profit only

The price surge last year makes people to be optimistic especially the newbies in cryptos, they think the value wont go down anytime and will continue to soar hence some invested their money which they cant afford to lose. Early this year is a bad scenario for those who bought btc in peak price, they cut their losses to avoid worse situation. We know its not a wise decision because if you are long position older the situation is understandable. Bear market is not that bad if you're a hodler for long term, its an opportunity if you believe there is more to look forward in crypto world.

Good thoughts, that's true I think, dip disqualified fast players and opened space to holders.

More FUD resistance. Well consider this just like a vaccination. We all have that Fever that follows vaccines. But the good thing is it shoots up our resistance, our nerve. To handle bad news
Okay, at least with passing time, we are seeing less of useless forks. Why? I truly believe by next bull run, most useless forks will fail to gain use and market shares and would eventually drop off, and original ideas will dominate

I really do not think that the correction is mainly because of FUD new, it is used as an excuse, the market cannot grow up all the time, we need to have a balance in the price growth and that is seen in the form of correction and the forks are just useless and let us see which ones will sustain in a few years time.

market bull run will come ,, and at the time it happens this will be a very fast market .. because at the time bitrcoin prices grow .. altcoin will follow the price increase ,, and when the price fluctuations are very visible ,, competition between coins will be something very profitable ,, and it is indeed we are all waiting

[dsaijz03]

In some point yes, to get rid of those shit coins and those who just want to be rich quickly. Those who just buy cryptos because they think that it will rise up immediately because of bear month would come to realize that it needs patience,strategy and knowledge when it comes to hodling cryptos and that it is not just a blink of you eyes you will get rich instead hard for since we are in a risky and volatile cryto world.

[eaglewhite80]

Yes very good points, I kind of feel like almost every weak hand has already sold.  That's why i feel we have bounced off the market bottom.

Yeah, pretty good ones. I have never had any problem with a bear market anyway. The idea has always been to remove weak hands from the market and it is usually a short term thing compared to how we have had bear markets in the past and how huge the market still has grown till date anyway. Even just last year till date with the current bear market is still looking good and if we have gotten to this stage and the weak hands have been fully shed off, then we are really in a very strong market and that is all that matters.

I really think that this bear market has some how has an advantage because most weak hands or those who really are into crypto for just profit would have most likely incurred a lot of lost and might become skeptical and might even force themselves to be more experienced on crypto. This is also good for most investors to get more moon bags at cheaper price. Somehow the bear market taught a lot of people how to be patient and how to be wise during this kind of situation.

[worle1bm]

Yeah this bear market trend seems to be good news for every hodler after so many months of loss or dump market.This is the right time to invest in btc,ETH,LTC or any othet good alt and sail on the boat of profits in long run.But past few months prove worse for those who buy at peak level of $19000 and then suddenly prices crashed to $7000 and they suffer huge losses and some sold out of panic at dips and correction period.But wise and earlier traders know that it was a normal situation in market and hodling will give profits.The prices of bitcoin will surge soon in coming months so just wait and hodl.

[yanlap]

when the bear market came , many people were panicking . but it is also an opportunity . in the bull market , the neo price exceeded 150 dollars . i didn't have a chance to buy . bear market, its price is 50 dollars . i decisively buy some . this is what the bear market brings us .

Things happen so rapidly and spontaneously in the world of the crypto market that you never know which thing will work in your favor and which thing will go against you. You just need to handle the situation accordingly and that you should now make any such choice which can then lead you to the loss of money. You need to stay active all the time and that you need to keep on observing the things.

I think that those people who do not have the dare to bear lose then they should do some regular business instead of holding or trading in bitcoin, because it is a coin business and one should prepare himself for any conditions. Happy with profits and dad with lose is not fare. Be patient when the price drops because it will happen again and again. So you should have the courage to bear the loss.

[renes]

I agree the bears are really good for us, but most of the people now are weak hands so they always want bulls, there is not many people defending bears.

[change7]

To an extent, bear market is good for emotions of the traders. During bear run, it gives everyone the opportunity to better see the volatile crypto market for what it really is. This period helps filter out the weak from the strong as the strong hodlers always win. The bear market transfer wealth from  the weak to the strong.

This is the main thing in cryptocurrency world. Before entering in this world one should have the courage to bear the fall in the price. It is fact that the price will not increase all the time. Some times as we see in the last couple of weeks the price dropped and most people lost their investment. Gaining and losing is a part of business and this is very crucial business.

[rickadone]

Yes indeed we are in a bear market but we have been in this thread for quite some time now but I think a trend reversal is very near. With the forks I think most of them are shitcoins and with the current trend they might die.

No one can stop FUD even with regulations you can see it on all market. Bad news from a company may crash it stock price. Bad news regarding a commodity may crash its price in the world market. Crypto market will bot be immune to that.

Obviously, we should be seeing some trend reversal very soon and being in a bear market is not actually the problem, the people who panic in the short term while seeing their investments going down are the ones who always make the worst decisions in the market and end up blaming the cryptocurrency market for their predicament.

Bear is always good for us in the long term as the market gets stronger over time, and FUD should always be affected as part of any market and as long as stocks have been, FUD still affects it, so if anyone thinks that we are going to see the end of FUD one day, they are expecting too much.

Well fuds contribute a lot though to a correction and to how long the market will stay under a correction stage. It's a given with the market's volatility it will go up and down and whether we like it or not, bears balances and make the marker healthy

[Whosdaddy]

There is one thing I love most in your article which is the part where you said it shoots up our resistance to handle bad news.
If we have always noticed that the more we have a bear phase most times, the stronger the market gets.

This is because at that stage, weaker hands are shed off the market, the little bit of weak ones that got to stay strong based on advise, after seeing the recovery and the outcome of the market gets stronger to even hint the newer investors what to do and what not to do during trends like this and this is the reason why we do not see old community members shaken at times like this.

Yes, and also the bear market shows us an opportunity to buy the coins we'd love to cheaply! The market will rise, I'm sure, but it's the time for choosing the "survivers" anf buying them for long-term!

For Bitcoin long term investment is much better. In the past, the price was rising by 500 USD for 1 day, but this may not be happen today and for the days ahead.
But, you should try a long term investment, so you should try this with a any potential altcoin, not with Bitcoin. If you want to earn money, this might help.
