Bitcoin: Stress and Happiness

[superman25]

It is very true what you say, Bitcoin has given many moments of joy to tens of thousands of people, but also disappointments, this is a fairly volatile market and Bitcoin is one of the most sensitive cryptocurrencies, if you bet in the medium and long term, you have greater chances of winning

Trading is a mix of stress and happiness, but that's life

Everyone is chosing his own way of making money. Trading is an unpredictable result, it is a kind of casino, so stress is inevitable. Everyone who is going to do this should understand that it is hard and steals nerves.

Out of those stressful moments is a happiness once you gain some profit when trading. Although not everyone is a trader but once you choose this kind of profession all of your hard work will pay off in no time. You just really need a dedication to love your work and that's all.

Well Yes, That's right. In bitcoin price, you can experience being stress especially when the price drop down and you need to wait for a very long time for its price to rise up again. On the other hand, You can experience happiness as well especially when bitcoin double its value, In that way, you can be able to earn a profit from your investment IF you can patiently wait for the right time when bitcoin price surge in the market that we are all expected.

I think that the most stressed person is the person who invested more of his money in Bitcoin than he should have allowed him to do so.  Of course, the positive result of investment and trading always brings joy, but using a cryptocurrency business is almost like roulette, and if you bet more than you can afford, you need to be prepared for stressful situations if problems arise.

I was happy around 2016 to 2017, even up to early 2018.

I got stressed out all the way from then till today due to watching all my holdings crash.

I shouldn't be, since all my coins and altcoins were somehow earned and not strictly bought, maybe except those other ICOs I got into in 2015 to 2016.

In my almost four years of getting involved (just an ordinary holder and part-time trader, nothing so great actually), I am so sure that Bitcoin can be a major source of stress especially if you bought them at a higher price and then the price made some slide. Now, I am not saying that it is Bitcoin's fault because stress in the first place depends a lot on our perception and how we are managing it. But definitely, we can categorize as a stressor at some degree.

On the other hand, Bitcoin can also be the source of "happiness" especially when the coin is having a great time jumping upwards. Certainly, there can be euphoria if in 2020 Bitcoin can go higher that its 2017 ATH. Bitcoin is known for extreme volatility and it can go from one side to the other in matter of hours and days.

No wonder that Steve Wozniak the Apple co-founder sold his bitcoin because riding the roller coaster stressed him out.

How do you manage any possible stress coming from Bitcoin's volatility?

I guess we should just accept the fact that there is a poasibility that you may lose youf funds in bitcoin because of its voalatility. Stress do nothing, what you can do is to be startegic next time. Maybe you should not refer only with bitcoins, buy other crypto and balnce it. You can have 4 cryptos and balance it 25% each. If a certain crypto drops its value then buy some of it so that if its price back no normal you will have a profit.

Bitcoin has made us experienced stress and happiness with its bullish and bearish season. But if we are able to invest only what we can afford to lose, we will not be so stressful like those investors who even used their lifetime savings just to invest in bitcoin. This is just normal for all investors to get stressed for some time but if bitcoin gets you stressed all the time, i think you should refrain from investing in bitcoin.

When you're going to make a plan for a business purpose then you have to face both stress and happiness, every coin has both sides, you should consider this one when you are in this type of platform, Bitcoin is more than that because still, it's not a mature platform anymore, so the price ups and downs are a normal case, you don't call this situation as a stress, you have to manage it properly, again you will see a good thing in this platform then you should not be excited too, every moment is important for you, you need a proper plan for the future vision, for me, Bitcoin volatility is getting a normal issue because I've seen as like you almost 4 years, so it has to be taken very normally.

Yes but don't you think it's time for the next level as we are familiar with the constant fluctuations and kinda used to it but on a longer run we still have a long way to go as you mentioned it's not mature enough. Market will become more matured if the users become mature and stop panic selling and believing in fud.

How do you manage any possible stress coming from Bitcoin's volatility?

Simple. Store your BTC in cold storage such as Paper wallet, Trezor or Ledger then stop visiting the crypto website. In my case. I left my trezor to my relative's house which they didn't know what really it is so that I don't have access to it whenever I'm tempted to trade or sell some. Right now I'm focused on buying BTC using my salary in my job and directly store in my cold storage. Wish me luck that my wallet is in good condition/safe or else I will be fck up my life savings.

----

Just buy and forget everything.

Keep holding in ledger wallet and top opening anything about bitcoin site, maybe when open next two years later price will be higher or pump, less possible next year you will get back your 2 bitcoin, but for five years later maybe possible bitcoin price back above $20k and you can get back your money, why not you sell last two years when price want going down and you just lost little your money than you have lost half now.

Bitcoin is the highest risk investment, volatility or rapid fluctuation is the reason. As you said bitcoin can bring happiness and pain as well. That again, for me volatility in cryptocurrency is a risk, so stress is normal. When I'm stressed out taking time for a vacation is my way to achieve happiness again.

When you are stressed it's best to quit for a while and forget about previous  losses, don't allow yourself to engage too much with such failures as it will not do anything good but only regrets that you failed your position.

Try to cheer up and let those good things to keeps you in the positive side.

is that a qoute ? or is that your life style ,  i mean are you a fisherman  ?  but the idea of using old phones to avoid internet is good so that you wont be distracted  . if we dont have internet or smartphones , we cant possibly access the world of cryptos which can only give us a stress if we dont like what we see .

Stress and happiness are two emotions than you can experience in handling a bitcoin. Why stress? You can it experience due to the inconsistency of bitcoin; bitcoin fall without any explanation why. On the other hand, happiness, you can feel it every time bitcoin becomes higher.

[bitbunnny]

If you are involved in Bitcoin, especialy as a trader, it's inevitable that you will feel both. You can't escape stress and happines comes as a reward for successful trading and profit.
The key is to maintain the balance and not to allow the stress to become dominant. But for that takes time and experience, to learn how to control emotions and to to hurt yourself with too much stress.
In the other hand the right amount of stress and exciting could be a motivation to move further.

I also had experience a lot of happy moment and decent earnings but vice versa i have also lots of regretful decisions and mind buggling losses.
Having a pause from all crypto related activities and travel out of town just to relax, forget and accept, helped me maintain my sanity.

Cryptocurrency isn't really stressful, its the activities and events inside the crypto space that has the chance to be stressful. If you're trading you'll feel more than stress, you'll be excited, stressed, frustrated and anything but then will also feel pleasure due to the good outcome and profit. I usually handle stresses lightly and don't take it that hard so I won't have anything heavy inside me. I'm not letting stress get inside of me and tell me what I should feel.

The stress and hapiness that you can feel in crypto is the same that you can feel in gambling...i dont see so much defference between the two except that in gambling you can get fast stress or hapiness while in crypto you must wait until you see the moves of what you invest in Whether Bitcoin or any other currency and i believ that the profissional trader must make stress and hapiness in his favour and this is the key because even the hapiness can lead you to wast your investments not only the stress
