The thing with bull market is that every correction has a chance to actually not be a correction, but rather the beggining of the crash. I remember how when Bitcoin was hitting $20,000 in 2017 and then started falling, everyone was saying "HODL" and that it's just another correction on the road to $100k. People who buy deep into the bull run should really be careful about it, otherwise they'll have to endure years of being in a loss on their positions.
Yeah, buying in ATH is of course not a great idea, I would hope that people get in earlier and lower instead of at ATH prices however we should also realize that last people who bought at ATH in 2017 made a 3x return in 3 years, that is actually a good good amount of money to make in 3 years, very rarely anything gives you that kind of return. Sure it wouldn't be great in midterm, it could go up to 100k this year and crash to very low numbers, or maybe it can crash even today, but in the long run it should be going higher than 60k for sure eventually.
@OP
do not be upset that you didn't hold your coins, nobody knew it would be this high, even the maximalists did assume it would go up but not this high and this quickly, so you were doing the right thing at the time I am sure.
