If the A invests $1000 in bitcoin, then the next day the price of bitcoin drops dramatically and the A loses $1000, which makes me curious, where does the $1000 A money go?

the price has to zero for A to lose his money which is not going to happen!

generally speaking the money doesn't go anywhere. you converted your money to something that lost value. if you have trouble understanding how it works then imagine something more common like a new car that you buy and then have an accident with and its price drops, or when you buy shares of some company at $10 a piece and that company doesn't perform well and the share price drops to $9, your investment doesn't go anywhere it just would have a little less value. or the same way, if the price of it goes to $11 you didn't create money from thin air, that item you held is now worth more.
so when you sell it to someone else on the market in first case you lose a little money and in second case you make a profit.

Nowhere, you just transfer your money into bitcoin and if you sell it with lower price you lost your money, it is just up on you if you will wait or take lower amount after some time.

If you want to invest you must be able to predict prices, you should wait for the right time to sell them, so you can make a profit.

There is always a game in the market. If someone loses money, someone will make profits. If someone loses $1,000, the person who sells the coin when he buys it gets the $1,000.

That $ 1000 just got liquidated in the market and to fulfil the dropped market cap it gets distributed over it. Most of the time bitcoin drops in value when people are selling out heavily. When they sell the money gets into their wallet. That is they are converting their bitcoin to fiat and in the process they are taking out the investments and growing the supply and reducing the demand of bitcoin. Thus it looses the market cap and value in the process. Now how much from $ 1000 will loose is dependent upon how much value bitcoin reduced.

The bitcoin ecosystem is complex and homogeneous which if the price drop I think it stays in the system with a zero sum game.

with your confusion like this then you must really learn the system first, actually you don't lose a bit with the number of items you buy, the number of items remains at the value you buy.

if you buy btc with a capital of $ 1000 and you get around 0.1 btc then that amount stays in place as long as you don't sell it again, you just wait for the selling price that is higher than the price you bought

he doesn't lose $ 1000, but he only loses the value, this is bitcoin volatility, and that's normal. his assets will be stored safely in a bitcoin wallet.

we will take advantage when the bitcoin market is high again.

if you invest in bitcoin with the amount of $ 1000 and then the price of Bitcoin drops $ 1000 of course if you sell it then you will not get anything including the profit that is only a big loss, the more you wait for the bitcoin price to exceed the price you invest then what you get is profit is not a loss.

Let my clear something here, Mr A investor did not loss his $1000 dollars investment there only a deep in price value which is for some period of time. The investor has to be educated about the  value movement of this currency before investing.

When A buys bitcoin for $1,000 he or she is actually paying B, When the price drops the money goes to B, If B keeps the money and not transferring it to another person then the money is with B.

Bitcoin investment is like any other form of economic investment. If you make a profit of $ 1000 and someone is losing $ 1000. If you lose $ 1000, then someone will make a profit. There is always a balance in the economy. You lose money, and someone will make a profit and vice versa.

Wow!! Just wow!!!

The 1000$ have gone to the person who sold A the coins.
No matter if the price goes up or down, those 1000$ are there, in the pocket of person B.

Think of it like buying anything else a house, a car, an ice cream.
If you buy a 2$ icecream and you eat the 2$ have vaporized?
If you crash the car, if your neighborhood light up your attic, it's the same...

Losing 100% value of btc investment in a day its kinda impossible, though trading always dictate the market, whenever there is a demand the price will automatically go higher , whenever there is a sell out then the price will be lower .

There's no need to get curious about it, Your money isn't lost you only had a portion of bitcoin or converted your fiat money to bitcoin, But the value decreases so you think that your money had also decreases, But you still had it as a portion of bitcoin, The good thing is you will just need to wait for the price to roll back and increase again and the price might increase as not the way you had expected and it will also gain profit with it when you do, You are investing in cryptocurrency expect the worst and expect the risk and gains in the world of cryptocurrency.

the money he has goes with the bearish market, and goes with the correction market.

I'm sure he never sleep well, he will always think about the capital he has and goes with a bearish market.

so, in my opinion it's better to wait until the market is normal again.

That is how everything works here so, apart change in the real life changes is normal aswell in the marketplace where the charts got red and green.
Now. Where does it go ? In your wallet
It just stays there it never been stolen just been deducted or increases due to corrections in the process of the investors movements and idea which they trade, sell, hold and buy.

You already said th $1000 is an investment. so it is governed by principle of markets.
News made the phrases  like "lost billion dollars" to make you believe that really a worth of billion dollars wasted?

It is never real Dollars. It is the potential that you lost.

For ex. I have a house that I sell it now for $1000 but after one month if I am getting offers for $800 only , so according to investor /News I will lose $200 but in reality I just lose the only potential $200 but no actual loss.

I am alive
