Understanding Bitcoin's Fluctuation: Why You Should Stay Encouraged.

[Itz-prisigold]

I've been seeing a lot of people panicking due to this recent Bitcoin fluctuation, I even saw a friend's post, where he's saying "Bitcoin is finished" and saying "this is the end" all because Bitcoin price has fallen down from $126,000 to $95,500 but my problem is that, this is not the first time such a situation has happened. Bitcoin has always moved in waves, it will pump hard for a while and then it crashes hard. And it will later find it's balance again.

So, Why is Bitcoin dropping?

. Market Liquidity Is Tightening: the global market is very tight right now and when money is tight, crypto will definitely feel it first.
. Investor Sentiment Changes Quickly: any small regulatory news or bad headlines, investors start getting nervous and once fear enters the market, everybody will just start selling.
. Regulatory News and Global Events: any small news about regulation or restrictions can really shake people's confidence.
. Bitcoin Is Still a Young Asset: Bitcoin is still evolving, so all this ups and downs are just normal for it.

 Things like This Has Happened Before:

. In year 2017-2018: Bitcoin actually hit $19k and later crashed over 80%. Back then people still complained that Bitcoin is gone. But Bitcoin is still here.
. In 2013-2014, Bitcoin still dropped again because of all these regulatory problems and exchange issues.
. And it even happened back in year 2011, there was still a massive crash.

And in all these massive falls, every single time, after all the panic and the noise, Bitcoin still found its way back.

Reasons Why People Should Stay Encouraged:

. Volatility is normal: Bitcoin being volatile doesn't mean, Bitcoin is finished.
. Past crashes didn't end Bitcoin: we all have seen that the market has survived at every single or major crash so far.
. Fundamentals is still strong: the technology and global adoption keep on growing, even when the price drops.
. Staying calm matters: see so many people that lose money, they lose money because they panic, and not because Bitcoin failed anyone.
. Long term investment helps: if your purpose of investing was for Long term, then all these dip will just become a noise to you.

Final message:

Bitcoin has crashed before, and even right now bitcoin is still crashing again. And be sure that someday Bitcoin will definitely rise again, and am very sure about it, because that is how the system works. So instead of you to be disturbing yourself, it will be more better for you to try and understand the cycle, stay calm and make decisions without fear

You want to know how to actually feel encouraged? Practise DCA. You will actually see what it means to be accumulating at low prices. You'll then feel like you have more coins, for the same dollars. And that joy only grows, as Bitcoin in its new cycle wanes, and then waxes, as the coins you bought 6 months ago, a year ago, 2, 3 years ago, all are worth much more dollars than you bought them for.

So never mind about the big idea talk. Keep it simple. Stack those sats.

We're in 2025 and yet we still discuss about fluctuation/volatility, really?

It's not something need to be discuss anymore because it's crystal clear if you want your wealth to grow, then you have to choose asset with fluctuation. Since Bitcoin price is getting higher, I'm also sure the fluctuation would be less compared to other previous 4 seasons cycle.

$95K is still big, the dump is nothing, it's a normal days in Bitcoin.

But if the bull run has ended and bitcoin goes back into its usual bear market cycle it may not recover again for months
or years. You could be holding onto losses for a long time. So I would be careful. You don't want to buying bitcoin at the end
of the bull run just before it crashes which it appears to be doing now.

The stock market is grossly overvalued due to the crazy AI bubble, and bitcoin is closely correlated to the stock market,
Meaning it is widely considered a speculative asset by most rather than a safe haven like gold. So people tend to dump it
when there are signs of trouble. So if or when the US stock market collapses it will surely take bitcoin down with it.

Yes, like I always tell my fellow investors, the little sats worth it, the little consistent increase in purchasing of sats overtime is very significant and can cause great result too as well. That is the only encouragement I can boldly tell OP if he actually mean to be successful in the crypto industry space.

Not everyone has the same reaction when responding to a Bitcoin price decline, some seem calmer because they are confident that this is just a temporary situation and the price of Bitcoin will continue to rise in the future, but there are also those who overreact like your friend.

therefore it's important to remember that emotional reactions can have a big impact on investment decisions, and your knowledge of the market is necessary so that you can remain calm and not make rash decisions when facing volatility. because for those who still understand the situation as it is now, they will not be rash in making decisions, and they prefer to remain calm and not rush to sell their assets which will help them minimize unnecessary losses.
