Fear is not Real.

[carlfebz2]

I do not understand what you mean by saying that fear is not real, of course fear can be real. Take a look at possible regulations that have come about in certain countries, like china for example, they threatened to ban bitcoin for a while and then they finally did. That fear of them doing so was and is very real.

Fear is real on literal yet its always been part of human nature on having this kind of condition of emotion which we do know that we are investing which means we do really value much out of our money which

it is normal to have those kind of reactions and speaking about fear into those banning then its normal but if you do trust up that Bitcoin community does have that strong support then you would at least
not really been affected that much as long you do have that trust and experience in the market then it is unlikely you would really be panicking because of these events.

Its unavoidable in general sense because emotion is always been part of us.

~ Regarding borrowing money to solve urgent financial problems, it can be done, if indeed we no longer have coins that can be sold. But as long as we still have coins to sell, we should not borrow money from anywhere

That's what I think too, but I heard many times things like OP is saying here: "Fear is not Real", "Sooner or later we'll hit a new ATH", "Hodl, don't sell" etc. I personally believe those words myself, but there are times when you have to cash out even though you know well that the price may be several times higher in the future. I'm an optimist regarding the future of Bitcoin, but I wouldn't recommend anyone to bet big money on that, especially short term.

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

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.

There is a relevant reason for fear to arise, and it is the panic caused by losing money, this is all that causes fear, many who enter the market always have the fear of losing their money, and in fact when entering their capital decreases (more if they do it at the moment) but there is a principle by which everyone must start and that is the fact that the best investments require time, and above all to choose the best stock / currency to invest, no matter the As long as it passes, what matters is that profits can be obtained, in crypto they are obtained quickly compared to the stock market.

Fear is something that cant really be avoided since its part of human nature on having this kind of emotion on where you would really be able to feel it because we dont like to lose money.

Whenever you do tend to resist on not to fear but still it would cripples out into your spine and mind because you do know on what would happen if things gets more worst.

No matter how experienced you are but still it wont be something that cant really be removed on someone for  them to feel out.

Fear is a difficult feeling to control, usually when it comes to money it is something that is difficult for many, especially when they realize that their money falls in value compared to other currencies, of course when BTC falls in price The other altcoins suffer a lot, and this is something that everyone knows, but when you have all the money invested in BTC you just have to be patient, because if it was bought before the last ATH it is obvious that at any moment it will go into a bullish trend and you will have better returns, investing in BTC is a WIN = WIN factor.

[MSahidan]

Fear can occur because we do not fully believe in something we have, in this case bitcoin.
When we want something, of course we have to sacrifice something, whether it's time, thought, energy, material or something else. Likewise with bitcoin, before we have it we must do research first, right? Find out, what is bitcoin? What is the purpose of bitcoin being created? And it takes time and thought to work on it. Then after all the things we have learned and all that we have sacrificed must disappear because of our fear? If so, I say, it would be foolish to lose by fear.
Don't let fear overpower all our ideals.

Through the history of Bitcoin every ATH was always surpassed by another one, sooner or later.  Even after a pretty long lasting bear market we always saw recovery, growth, and then one ATH after another in the end. Of course, this trend can't last forever, and one fine day we'll see an ATH that will never be surpassed, but at the moment we are far from saturation. Imo, it can happen after $200k for 1 BTC, but not earlier.

[Desmong]

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.

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

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.

New entries are more infected by these two viruses FOMO & FUD, with experience we learn how to deal with it. If there are no more new entries BTCitcoin will become more stable.

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

Should I smile? Cause I don't really understand what you meant by fear is not real. Just imagine you bought a toke and suddenly the market falls and keep falling and you kept calm and keep holding. Before you know it, the initial worth of your taken had fallen to half the value. Are you still going to keep holding when you know that the market will keep falling. This had happened to me and i sold all my positions and later I noticed that the coin lost its entire value.

It is really fascinating what can happen, according to the S2F model it can reach $ 288k, which is a figure that I see very possible, of course, I do not know how long it will take to get there, but it will be reached, in fact the new ones ATH is what allows investors to continue to believe in BTC widely, what I can imagine in the future is that BTC will be everyone's default currency worldwide where money will be handled and transferred immediately and with the acceptance of all, I think this is not far, we have been seeing countries that are joining the adoption of BTC and this causes the demand to increase.

Fear is real when you think it is something scary and fear is not real when you are able to control that fear with an opportunity. many people fail in investing when they are always afraid of the occurrence of losses and loss of assets, while they are able to control that fear by investing in the right coins, so that now they become rich and become the most successful people in the world.

But there are people who doesnt really look up that way on which they do really tend to make out some short terms sells for them to have those short term gains.

They dont care nor mind about into those long term perspective and hopes towards bitcoin because they dont prefer on earning 1.5x or 2x since the value is on the rooftop now

on which this is why people do mostly focus on altcoins.Fear is obviously real and we are just humans we could normally felt it on every circumstances that we are on trouble.

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

Majority of new comers (including me when I initially joined crypto) come with mind that they will become rich overnight since thats what crypto is all about. With this mind set they adopt day trading and end up losing all they have. IMO HODLING is the only strategy that can save you from losses in the long run.

Overcoming fear when it comes to any crypto related stuffs is a big challenge that is not easy to be overcome as a newbie, personally as a newbie I feared whenever the  the price of bitcoin is dumping and consequently sell off my coins then, however with time and experience I began to hodl my assets having studied how price dumped as well recovered in the past that historical events had allay all my fears in any event of price dumping while having confidence of price recovery, infact with reference to charting analysis it very obvious that price always bounce back after correction.

[stomachgrowls]

Fear is another word of getting panic, and you only become panic when someone gives you the wrong information, or you have a lack of knowledge about investing. Bitcoin is all about holding the coin, and if you know how to control and not to sell while you're in a panic, then you'll earn the profits. If you want to enter the bitcoin community, you have knocked out the fear inside you; otherwise, there are no chances of getting profit. That's the summary of bitcoins.

Fear is on general which do include in all scope under it which would really be a normal since we are just humans and these emotions would really be always a part of us.

We are dealing into something which doesnt give out assurance and we do invest our money which it is normal to have these kind of reactions whenever we do something wrong.
Fear is real and every human would definitely be going into this process because we wont really be doing our best on the first place if werent serious on dealing with things
because you dont feel anything like getting scared or being afraid.

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

Fear is a mindkiller,
It may not be real to be seen, but it really can influence our reality. Fear is an emotional thing and feeling.
In this crypto industry, fear includes several things. Fear can really make some people panic and in control in doing something.
If you say fear is not real and the first thing to learn about Bitcoin is by Holding, not all people have a similar mind.
It may be a good thing, but not all people have that kind of capital for holding. Additionally, the next question is "how long is holding that should be conducted?"

Fear is on general which do include in all scope under it which would really be a normal since we are just humans and these emotions would really be always a part of us.

Yes, and we are likely cannot be separated from this, except we can control our emotion and fear itself. If we can't, fear will drive us to do something under control, drive us to think negatively, overly, and others. It needs some learning process in the crypto industry to be able to control our fear and be usual with this situation.

If you are in group of people where majority of them get  panic for sure you might be gotten on what they feel especially when you keep reading the news about latest happening and watching your portfolio. This is unavoidable and might we will think about what other did already. But if we just listen or learn from our experience then delete the apps where it tracks our portfolio then possibly we can conquer the fear and wait for something good or bounce back to happen.

Yes, I think it's totally legit to apply the stock-to-flow model to Bitcoin, because BTC is a store of value(in spite of what haters say). We have built-in scarcity, not more than 21 million coins will ever exist. We have a diminishing supply, cut in half every 4 years. And, do we have strong demand? You bet we do! How long it will take to reach $288k? Just look at the history of Bitcoin price movements, 7x from today's price can be reached in less than a year.

Investing in Bitcoin the first time wasn’t really an issue for me, because I was already investing in some stocks, and with the experience  I have had with the stock market, I was expecting to have similar experience in Bitcoin, and even worse than that because I already knew that Bitcoin was a volatile investment.

So, when I started and I was seeing how the price kept fluctuating, I wasn’t really scared and the good thing was the amount I invested wasn’t something that I would worry much about, and I was also ready to go for it long term, which I would say was because of me doing my research and understanding everything about the market before I started, although the view that a lot of people had back then is quite different from what it is now. But I was able to hold on and gain profit from it before making any sale at first .

You invested in a shitcoin. No well developed and well known coins will drop that much within short period of time. Whatever OP said isn't applicable for shitcoins. Shitcoins are for greedy people willing to take a risk  to get rich overnight (which is very unlikely to happen). If you see a shitcoin tanking down really bad, sell as soon as you can to cut your loss short. But if they are coins like Bitcoin or Ethereum, then don't sell when you are at a loss. Don't panic. Don't fear. Keep holding and if you can invest, invest more when the price is low. In the long run, it will give you some very good profit.

There will always be fear because every investor or Bitcoin trader will never think alike and there will always be newcomers to the space. We cannot say that only the newcomers have this fear but even the veteran traders too but some have been able to overcome this by understanding that, what FUD and FOMO cause to the market can be corrected if you are a HODLer and there has been proved to this, so until many traders/investors understand this, there will always be fear which I believe is part of the system. 

[hd49728]

Fear is real, indeed. If anyone says there is no fear exists in his or her life, it is a lie. We are human so that we have to experience our lives with emotion and uncontrolled psychology as well.

You can not control such things but if you have good investment strategy and understand the market, you can build up a strategy for yourself to cope with fear.

Most of people who are engaged in the market fail to do this and it is why we see fear and greed reflected in market.  The Fear and Greed index shows that https://alternative.me/crypto/fear-and-greed-index/

Do you think all people will feel fearful in red days or all will feel greedy in green days? There are minority of them will do oppositely with the crowd. So who are they? They are winners on the market.

[noormcs5]

Fear is real, while panic is also real. People tend to panic when they see the price rise, so they think they will be too late if they do not buy right now. If you can manage your emotion and not panic when you see the price move, you will see your chance to buy any coins, not just bitcoin because only with calm down will you see that chance. You can hold bitcoin without having altcoin but still, you need to calm down and not fear the price movements because that will happen with the crypto.

If fear was not real, we would not have seen selling pressure on Bitcoin prices. Unfortunately, the fear is real but the genius are those who buy in fear times instead of selling. That's how you can get crypto at a very cheap prices.  Buy on fear and sell on greed is a secret to sucess.

Fear is applicable to others while not in me, there are ways that is why Fear is dominant and that happens in dumping market, this is also the reason why we are seeing the volatility of the market because of those weak people in which can sell the coins when they felt afraid .
so Fear is Real but not for everyone .
