Fear is not Real.

[Hypnosis00]

First thing to learn about Bitcoin is definitely not to Hodl ..... Bitcoin is not primarily an investment option... It is a Currency!  If everyone just keep on buying bitcoins to Hodl, it will just eventually die out and the Miners will stop making money...so Mining will also die. 

So please stop encouraging people to Hodl bitcoins.... rather get them to use it as a Currency. The price will move more and be stable, if people used it more as a Currency. 

That suppose to happen but can't hide the reality that people are considering this as a form of investment rather than as a currency. Maybe it could be realized somewhat in the future, a decade from now when major countries and establishments are accepting this. But for now, it was we've heard as "investment" where people take risks for a profit.

Mining won't die even people will hold their Bitcoin as for sure these won't be forever and these holders will sell their Bitcoins.

FOMO means fear of missing out, And not getting out of positions, like you have said. Yes it is right to always hold your positions, no matter how the market might be at the time. We need to be able to have a strong faith and hold on till the market starts going up again.

But, I’ve seen some people who say that sometimes why they end up selling their Bitcoin is because that they are in need of the money that they have invested in it. And because of that the majority of them ends up selling while at loss, they have no other option at a time like that, than to sell the Bitcoin and use it to solve the issues or settle the responsibilities that they might be having.

These people are making a mistake: the mistake they are making is that they’re investing money that they can’t afford to risk, what they’re investing is too much for them, and they’re thinking that the price will go up and they will then make huge profit, but it doesn’t work that way. If they invested a little amount that wouldn't affect them no matter the situation, then they wouldn’t have to worry much when price is down and they have an issue to sort out.

We do really need circulation but i cant blame out people on to hold with their coins but doesnt mean that we are really in big problem in replation to this one because we know on whats its potential when we are holding it for long time being.Yes, it could affect circulation but it is really still sufficient
on making this market progress out despite of those lmitations since people are chosing on holding it out instead.

About fear then its actually real because  its part of human emotion which is something thatt cant be avoided  which is why experience would be the ones
would be  handling out yourself on different kind of situations.

First thing to learn in BTCitcoin is Hodl it - Fear is not Real

Fear is a normal human habit and it's real! You can't just generalize everyone with that one sentence. I do sometimes  become afraid of the thing I see and I need to think twice before doing something especially involved with money. The real thing is, how do you control your fear and think straight so your thought won't be infected with that fear.

Actual good take from you. Tbh, if people knows Bitcoin because it's some "money-making" then they are clearly clueless with what they face.

this incentive that p wants to convey that fear is not real is such a nonsense and what most people have been saying when it comes to bitcoin, they think if someone buys bitcoin for price X and then drops then one doesn't need to stay afraid because one day the price will go up, but they forget that this one day is something relative, it can take years and if the person who bought bitcoin at price X is in a hurry then it is natural for him to sell in fear of losing even more money

It still individual preferences though, just look at those investors who sold early, they've lost big amount of money. So based on that, you can't blame people holding on their Bitcoin is hope that someday they will become crypto millionaire.

Of course it is also a currency that we can used, however, not many are still accepting it.

Nevertheless, adoption might be slow, but sooner or later it will be big. So we can take advantage of it, used it as a currency or be a long term holder for profits.

I don't think fear is real either. As in most situations in life, everything is psychological for bitcoin. For now, it is wanted to be feared that it will go down, but I am waiting for a new record, but there is a possibility that it will be in the first quarter of 2022, even if not this year.

90% of crypto geniuses failed just because they failed to HODL it learn from them don't be one of them.  

First thing to learn in BTCitcoin is Hodl it - Fear is not Real

natural instinct people who have never traded in the crypto market before. Seeing assets drop drastically must be hesitant to make a decision. but it is undeniable that so far it is the holders who make profit. the intention to become a holder is always there but there is always a temptation to always be afraid of losing. trader crypto must have felt that feeling every time.

this is related to psychology that is not well established, where human nature cannot be controlled properly. things like this must be trained slowly, we must focus on holding it if the main goal is investment. lest we change our minds from investors to traders, so that we experience big losses.

Fear fades out given a brief time of constant action. Some people that do not hodl bitcoin help the ecosystem grow, which contributes to the exchange rate of bitcoin. However, participants may want to invest a high sum of money while another party would prefer a gradual investment.

Established businesses invest fiat to purchase bitcoin, and it helps the price skyrocket. And some growing projects can decide to panic sell bitcoin to save their project in times of need such that they will invest back into bitcoin after solving the dispute and continue earning higher profits.

They are other patterns of trading bitcoin that help every participant of this great project to get an opportunity to get hold of a few Satoshi given a period of work time.

But the actual facts are that fear is real. You can see everyone talking about 30,000$ bitcoin or even less. Everyone talking about the bear market starting soon. And when you see the marketcap of overall crypto going down, shows people have fear and they are exiting crypto.
Only the ones who are the real believer of the technology will hold in these tough times.

[Woodie]

When BTCitcoin is under 1 dollar people think it's another WebMoney kind of thing, greed was becoming Fear people failed to hold on it.

When bitcoin was at this price, paid to click where common and unfortunately some didnt pay out when the threshold was reached which is why others had the fear in them....

Same thing keep repeating itself first Greed enter's and it turned up into fear and bought wrong judgements.

Truth be told bitcoin markets can be volatile at times and the fear gets worse if you are looking at the charts which can tempt most of us to sell so as to try cut our losses. But with experience this becomes routine and you are immune to this fear and any easy sells.

Fear of loosing FOMO is where we get out of positions and accept losses, FUD is what makes market down and it keep repeating itself.

Totally agree with you

[Doell]

actually fear is useful and its real ,during the bullrun people will buy more bitcoins and sell when profit "investors" ! Fear of loss should be a natural and real thing but depending on the thinking and depending on the need it ! the company will always hold bitcoin and in fact continue to buy is mandatory because to pay employees with bitcoin ! there are also some people who continue to hodl without sell because of their love of bitcoin technology for that person's future ! many perceptions for it but fear is a natural thing and real !

[Desmong]

When it come to fear of the market, I think those who had experience and losses with other project would tend to have the fear of losing their funds again. Having fear is normal and it's not a crime but sometimes some fear of the market are not just it because they are just as ignorant and abnormal.

no matter how smart someone analyzes bitcoins will surely find mistakes and this is what creates fear but with the occurrence of mistakes sometimes makes the holder stronger to hold on what will happen is a challenge for holders like bullrun 2017-2018 which is still a scourge for me personally

[romero121]

The evolution and it's growth till date have happened in a gradual manner. We don't know whether the community will widen or not, but on some trust people started to get into cryptocurrency. Slowly the same had made the market to be more stronger than ever.

Fear is part of every investment. When the investment is long term planned, the fear is low. Always the immediate money have got more risk, so good is to move along with the market and book the profit at the right time than keeping focus only on immediate profit.

There is always panic moments, and these are created in the past and people are easily manipulated to follow it. Now things are different, everyone have better learning and they don't easily fall as a prey for the Whales play.

If it was for bitcoin, the risks are worth it because it has never been like the other altcoin where its price has drained down to almost zero, it always finds some ways to recover and get back on track. But if you use that mentality on altcoins, then we have a problem because you could use all your funds thinking that it has the same attribute as bitcoin where in reality it was just used for pump and dump investment, and when the price will fall, it will never recover forever. That's why you need to establish fear in investment because of the high probability that something bad might happen.

As long as they can manage their fear and still analyze the bitcoin movement, I am sure they will see a chance to enter the market and trade without making a mistake. That is why every person who wants to enter the market needs to learn to control themselves, especially control the fear that can happen later. It needs the courage to say that they can control the fear while still trying to analyze the market and see their chance to buy low comes.

I don't see anything bad for the bitcoin market at this time even though the bitcoin market is falling very sharply unlike usual but in fact bitcoin is going through a year-end correction closing the year-end period cycle for stockholders as well as dividend distribution to bitcoin asset owners. So there is no need to fear for the bitcoin market not recovering again as it will only take a few weeks to restart the start of the new year period.

whale prey will remain. those who are just getting in as the bitcoin hype is getting stronger are prey to whales that will fill them up.
new people will start to be manipulated again just like old people in the past who are still groping about crypto.
I used to be prey to whales, but then as time progressed, I started to break away from whales and cultivate my mind to survive in crypto and coexist with whales.

It should be underlined, these errors can add insight. I don't think we can completely eliminate that error in analysis, but at least we can minimize it. Fear occurs when we think a mistake is a failure.
