With all this your suggestions here, you should have added we should stop living our normal life, just because we invest in bitcoin, as if we are the first to do so.

 For you to panic anytime the market is crashing, it shows that you are not doing something right,  which is very clear, because if you are investing only what you can do away with or what you can afford to lose, you will not be panicking when you already knows the characteristics of bitcoin.

Volatility is not what any investor that is doing the right thing will get himself worried for, because he believes that even though his investment did not later go as expected, he will still be ok emotionally and financially.

anyone who is into panic because the price of Bitcoin is decreasing in the market it is basically shows is still a novice in cryptocurrency investment especially in Bitcoin investment, as someone who invest in Bitcoin you don't need to consider all these things you listed, you need to conserved in mind but the price of Bitcoin can crash at any time and the price can also recover to each state at any time so therefore we don't need to panic because panicking can make you to be in depression so just have it in mind that it is the nature of the business they bitcoin price always fluctuate,

Although panicking is basically for people who may not have a clear understanding or perhaps not knowledge as you said, but every other can also panic especially traders or will I say short term investor with high expectations on a short while, but the question to ask is, if Bitcoin was ever created to be stable, what makes  bitcoin a a specail investment is the reocuring opportunities for investors to buy at any given time, and one of the important thing to note is that dumps does end the investment, it only affect the stash of Bitcoin in ones portfolio temporarily, and goes back as it was before on even higher than expected on a long-term, so dumps should be seen as an opportunity to buy as much as we can, at a comfortable and reduced price, instead of panicking.

That is just the fact. If someone has been in the crypto industry for a long time and understands certain things about how Bitcoin works, they are hardly going to panic just because the price of Bitcoin decreases or continues to decline. They know that it is normal for the Bitcoin market to behave that way, so there is nothing to be scared of for investors who take the right steps before investing in Bitcoin.

For instance, they invest with money they don't need for a long period. Most of the time, people panic not because of anyone else, but because they have made the wrong decision by investing money that they are not supposed to invest in Bitcoin, such as money they plan to use in the nearest future. Some even go as far as investing money that doesn't belong to them, thinking that the price of Bitcoin may increase within a short period.However, if the market doesn't move in their favor, they will start to panic. As a result, because they don't want to lose more money, they will start thinking about selling and may eventually sell their Bitcoin investments at a loss.

One of the things that makes it easier is setting goals as to what you would sell. And not having to make that decision during a crash. Just because the price has dropped. Does not necessarily mean that your original investment thesis has shifted. But if new information comes in that warrants a re-thinking of your thesis you should do so. I would also not use borrowed money or money that I would need to pay living expenses with. As it would be very difficult to keep my cool if I was in a financial situation. DCA is a good strategy for some investors over a long period of time, but it's not for everyone, and it's only suitable for those with a lower risk tolerance and who have the financial means to invest in this manner. The idea is not to pull out of the market entirely. It's to not be afraid to make a decision.

Basically, experience teaches you a lot. Once we have the experience, this shouldn't be an issue anymore. We should already be well aware of the conditions in the crypto market. It is always fluctuating. Volatility can be extremely high or relatively moderate. Because of this, we ought to be mentally prepared so that we don’t end up stressed.

That’s understandable if we're new to this. But, if we are around for a while and still find yourself constantly stressed, it might be a good idea to take a break. Just calm yourself down and step away from the crypto market for a while.

I think the best way to avoid stress during a market crash is to have mindset that ihave done this investment for long term and also never invest in market more than you can afford to lose. Market crashes are just normal part of the market, and instead of panicking, we should avoid going to the exchange and also avoid making emotional decisions. If u take a break from checking the market conditions will also help u alot.And also u should busy yourself in something physical.If you try these things u will probably relieve stress during market crashes.

All the points you have noted are quite effective but I would suggest you to try to keep yourself busy in some way. Because only when you are busy you can forget about the market but if you are spending idle time then you will keep visiting the market again and again. And you should not be alone at that time because when someone is alone he thinks more about things which can be harmful for him like checking the market again and again and trading frequently or gambling. So you should never be alone at that time. But it would be best to spend time with friends who are not serious about crypto and at that time no one will discuss crypto.

At the beginning of investing, you have to set up your mindset in such a way that even if the market falls, there will be no regrets or remorse. Because before investing in Bitcoin, we should invest in a long-term plan to hold it. We should avoid short-term plans to invest in Bitcoin. When we plan to invest in Bitcoin for the long term, if the market falls in the meantime, we will not have any regrets. Of course, all the things you mentioned are perfect to reduce unnecessary worries.

The only way to destress upon wild numbers is to me to recognize not all numbers are equally significant.  Sometimes the lowest number is thrown out by necessity to a market struggling to find buyers and that can mean fear is apparent and the sentiment of the sell has peaked.

Stopping all price update notifications

This suggest to me at least on the surface an over reliance on price alone.   Its our makeup from birth to look more then once with varying perspective, we have two eyes for this purpose and it adds depth perception to our aim.   You should not look twice purely at prices negative or positive in trend without adding context of some kind to add accuracy.     Vary your perspective, by timeline by the people or institution of category and sector of interaction in the marketplace.

  Some people are on leverage some aren't, some only check price once a week or month yet these buyers or sellers count, add depth to your understanding of what drives the market; its what makes us far superior to computers.

Well it could also depends on how you are into your investment. If you are a newbie or novice, then maybe you will be stress to see your portfolio down and panics and even thinking of selling it right away.

But if you have the experience and looking at the long term, like investing 4 or more years, then I don't think that you will have problems seeing the price fluctuating or going down hard. So that is key, focus on the bigger picture and not the current price. And if you believed that the price is going to go up in the future, then it's not going to affect you seeing the current price is going down hard like what we are seeing as in this month we have a lot of increase and going to $86k now, the price is below $80k.

Tbh fear isn't just a newbie thing. Even seasoned investors can panic when they have got too much money on the line or face losses they can't stomach.

So having a longterm mindset alone isn't enough to keep fear in check . You need to manage risk from the get go. Don't invest money you  need to cover your basic living expenses, and don't risk more than you can afford to lose. Know exactly what you're putting your money  into , have a solid plan and prep for different scenarios. Only then will emotions have less of a say in your  decisions.

[drangos]

What I would add is that you have a written investment plan prior to a crash. Establish your willingness to accept risk, what would alter your investment approach, and when you need the money. This can help to distinguish fact from fear reactions. I believe it's also essential to have an emergency fund in real money as well, because when people need money to pay bills, they are more likely to panic-sell and take crypto out of the mix. Resting from the chart isn't bad, but it shouldn't be a sign of missing out on real dangers. Not being afraid does not mean that you mustn't sell, but that you must make decisions based on your plan, not just a drop in the price.

[Sulegzy39]

Establishing objectives for what you would sell is one of the things that makes it easier. and not having to decide that in the event of an accident. simply because the cost has decreased. doesn't always imply that your initial investment thesis has changed. However, you should reconsider your thesis if new information becomes available that calls for it. Additionally, I wouldn't use borrowed funds or funds that I would need to cover living expenses.

If I were in a financial predicament, it would be extremely hard for me to remain composed. DCA is a good long-term investment strategy for some investors, but it's not for everyone and is only appropriate for those who can afford to invest in this way and have a lower risk tolerance. The goal is not to completely exit the market. It's to make decisions without fear.

When we always talk about investing with what we can afford, that statement at times is overrated. During investment, we buy bitcoin or altcoins in badges based on what we can afford at that moment, the more we buy, the higher the value of that money and that's how painful it can be if loss is to occur, not really that easy, but we can always do better by just learning the best possible ways to limit the emotional effect of every bear market if we can just consider it to be a temporary move and time will come when the market will bounce back.

If you have the mindset to hold for long term, then price movement isn’t going to disturb the person because you already know that you not going to be selling the bitcoin anytime soon. But if you have the mindset to sell after making some profits, you going to be worried when the price drops, because you don’t have plans to hold for long term. Lot’s of people are making the mistake of not investing only the amount of money they can afford to lose, most of the people investing now are going it with all the money which they are having, most of them don’t understand how bitcoin works, and all your money is not suppose to be in bitcoin.

Market crashes are just normal part of the market, and instead of panicking, we should avoid going to the exchange and also avoid making emotional decisions.

We can’t avoid volatility in crypto space, so we should be use to up and down happening. When bitcoin price is increasing, we should always prepare for dip, don’t think the price is just going to continue increasing.

The main strength to keep Bitcoin investment for a long time is patience, if you do not have patience then you will not be able to maintain Bitcoin investment even after following a thousand strategies because there is always panic in your mind. And you should use such money in Bitcoin investment that even if you lose money, you will not regret it,
so in this current position you should be more patient and if you can invest Bitcoin according to the DCA method then it will definitely be easy for you to maintain it for a long time. Moving forward towards the future by maintaining the continuity of Bitcoin purchase, and following the strategies given to you, it will be easy to keep Bitcoin investment for a long time.
