Why is everyone expecting continuous growth?

[CristianOff]

I don't know if it's only my perception but I constantly notice people who expect continuous growth. Whether it is bitcoin, crypto,
stock, they only see one side of things and never the opposite.

Yes, things go up but they can go down, and going down does not mean the stock/crypto is dying. It means it is alive!
So please stop all these recession & bitcoin going down topics and be wise

Because they want to be reach in short time.they think that they bought bitcoin or others altcoin it will be rise not going to down.who always think that they always frustrated with market.Also these kind of peoples got panic when market down and sell there coins.I think they can't win in long run.

[leowonderful]

A lot of people expect linear growth or extreme growth because that's how some people are introduced to cryptocurrencies- a place to make money quickly, which is sometimes true, but the same volatility that makes crypto so great also works in the opposite direction.

Also true. Emotional trading never pans out in the end because of how random and unpredictable they tend to be, and the market flushes out these people eventually. That's not to say that holding guarantees profits, but have a set plan and stick to it instead of acting on a whim.

The expectation of the market going up has historically been related to the much anticipation and hope of many crypto enthusiasts. And not only that but people have also found from looking at previous market behaviour from the past years, and observed that there is a trend and thus people expect that to hold true.

However, now there is a completely different story, and the much anticipated inflation in the crypto market price is revolved around the BTC halving event which by its economic definition, in simple terms means that due to shorter supply, demand will increase and thus the price is expected to rise.

It seems though, that for any major skew of the market price there's always a reason which ties to the demand and supply. For instance, the crush we're seeing now is believed to be a 'money laundering' effect which led to millions worth of BTC being dumped on the market. Thats said, there always seems to be a factor driving the price, which sooner or later becomes common knowledge among the crypto enthusiasts.

For me players seem they are only being optimistic which is good I think because it has effect to cryptocurrency. Everyone expect continuous growth because they have positive thought about it and they believe its gonna happen which I think its really happen right now. Being optimistic of many trader have big factor in result of growth, so i think  we should more being positive all the time.

[GreatArkansas]

For me it's because they know that when you are in cryptocurrency there is easy money, just like what happened in cryptocurrency market cap or in Bitcoin where already in already more than thousand returns in the span of 10 years only.
That's why lot of people thoughts cryptocurrencies are scam because of it's high votality.

[andulolika]

I be seeing this in crypto since 2014 i guess. But this way of expectancy and knowledge is another way to pump bitcoin. It is never enough for people that's sure.

[JeromeTash]

Come on. it's just human nature. Nobody goes to trade wanting to make losses so it would be normal if someone only expected continuous growth of the asset they have bought.
The same applies to things like gambling... people just expect the capital to grow without any short comings.

But in reality, lets say if bitcoin's price was just ever growing without any correction. I personally would think it's a bubble that would burst at one time

Most noobs do have this kind of perception where they do believe out that market do only goes up and never goes down which is really wrong.Even veteran ones do really have this kind of mindset
where they do believe on things which arent supposed to mind of.Market does really move up and down and we cant just expect to have that constant upward movement yet that thing do signifies pure
manipulation and we dont need it and its much more preferable to look for a market which do have organic growth with having those ups and down.So its totally a wrong perception that people should
really get rid of.

It's not just you. It has to do with psychology and human nature. We humans tend to extrapolate too much. The stronger a trend looks, the more emotional and unrealistic we become about it, thinking it will never end. This is why "sentiment analysis" is just as important as "technical analysis" or "fundamental analysis" to traders. https://www.babypips.com/learn/forex/sentimental-analysis

It happens in both directions too. People tend to get overwhelmingly greedy near market tops and very fearful near market bottoms. For this reason, there is even a crypto-specific index that measures perceived fear and greed across the market: https://alternative.me/crypto/fear-and-greed-index/

You wouldn't invest if you expect the price to go down though and its true the price had continue to rise up. You can always check how much it had been from less than $1 back in 2009 and now more than $7K. When a hopeful kid sees how much it had grown over the years, they may expect the price to beat the ATH 20K too.

The people who don't expect a continuous growth are the traders of course these people will keep taking profit every single chance. We're happy to have pumps and dumps that's what Bakkt is created for.

Well said mate! Most people aren't aware of this fact and only think about one thing. They do not think about things from different perspective which is why they land themselves into this category of people.
We should be conscious about the fact that things also goes in the opposite direction because it has too. None of the things can go in one direction forever.
Time changes everything. A person born has to die some day. Bitcoin price going up has to come down some day. This is how it goes on with every thing.

[maydna]

That is because we want to make a profit again, whether it is a big profit or a small profit. At least, when the market can grow to the higher price, the possibility for us to be back to make a profit will come so we can recover the loss that we got before. Besides that, we already see a low price for a long time ago, although bitcoin and altcoin price can increase, the price still not increase so high. I think we still want to see the price will increase so high so we can make that profit. We need to have the patience to see that market will have time to increase back because until now, the price still gets down again.

[Jating]

I don't know if it's only my perception but I constantly notice people who expect continuous growth. Whether it is bitcoin, crypto,

Simply because they wanted to see their investments grow overtime.
Do you want to wait 10 years to see your money goes from $1k-$100K?
Or like two years?

Yes, things go up but they can go down, and going down does not mean the stock/crypto is dying. It means it is alive!

Yes, there's no such thing as parabolic growth in any market. That's why patience is the key here. If you don't have that kind of attitude, sooner or later you will be burned easily. That's why I believed that investment is not for everyone, specially those who don't understand how it works in the first place and always think a short term growth.

I agree, patience is a good behavior for traders particularly when the market is falling. Those people who expecting the continuous growth are the people are actually have positive attitude toward in trading. For me its better to be optimistic because it cause us a good reverse in our life and give us more good happen in our life. Also people expecting because in the first place they only follow what their instinct.

[mersal]

Because everyone is greedy and selfish that is why they want to make profits and they only want to make profits.

But the current decrease on the every market is due to corona outbreak so everyone is afraid of what will happen in the future and total world economy might get into recession so they are looking for safe heaven to store their value of assets.

[hahay]

Continued growth is indeed a hope for most individuals because indeed, it cannot be denied when they have spent a lot of money to invest in this market. Whatever it is, I don't think it's a problem as long as they still have good control because the most important thing of all is just to be patient and confident to keep holding for longer.

[Yamifoud]

Because that is particularly the mindset of everyone. Just like the other says and what the people are thinking about crypto, a money generator? It always sucks in our minds and even we lose in the past days, and even seeing the market dump we are still thinking positively because we want to make more money and that is all we wanted to happen. But somehow we couldn't realize how hard it is and only our minds drive it.

[FanEagle]

There has never been anything in the entire financial world ever since humanity started that had a continuous growth of price without ever having some downs as well. In the long run anything could be going up (or maybe bankrupt) but even if something goes 1000000% higher in 10 years, it still has to have some fall down days as well.

Finance is something that basically constantly goes up and down and you are only trying to predict when you can buy so it would be at bottom and when you can sell so it would be at peak and continue to make profits that way however if you miss the bottom or the peak you can always try to wait it out and trade on the next bottom or peak. Patience is very important and in the long run bitcoin is very profitable even if it has some down days.

[travwill]

Adequate people with some experience in the cryptocurrency market will never expect continued growth after growth.
As we can see, another recession happened, but the themes in which most people prophesy endless growth are still alive.
Remember them, they will return with similar statements already at the next growth.
