How to sustain the value of your Bitcoin in bear run.

[fredericktaylor]

Op The strategy you are talking about it very risky to me because it is not possible to know for sure when the price of Bitcoin will increase or decrease, assume Bitcoin is price $80k, seeing the volatility of Bitcoin, you convert all your Bitcoins into stable coins, if in a few days you see that the price of Bitcoin has reached $100k, then can you consider yourself a successful or profitable trader, your strategy will not work completely to make money or reduce risk.

From my perspective, it is very important to consistently buy Bitcoin with a long-term plan. If you want to reduce risk by investing in Bitcoin and become a successful investor, you must gain proper knowledge about Bitcoin and maintain consistency. You must purchase Bitcoin using discretionary money and not get disappointed quickly. You must wait for good times with confidence. As a result, success can be expected in the future.

Exchanging Bitcoin into stablecoins like Tether during a bear market can cause short-term volatility reduction, but it's an essential market timing. The purpose is to know when the bottom or reversal actually happens. Many individuals sell expecting further drops and eventually miss the rebound, where by ending up with less Bitcoin.

For traders on short term it may work when they are experienced ad disciplined. Yet for many investors to to swap frequently equally attract fees, stress, and the risk of wrong timing. Which is why long-term methods such like holding or DCA are mostly easier and more reliable.

Therefore it isn't necessarily wasting of time, yet it demands solid market judgement. For starters, it normally creates more mistakes than protection.

You don't have to keep your coins in a centralized exchange to be able to access a stablecoin like USDT you can do so in some none custodial wallets. Some none custodial wallets that have USDT are Unstoppable and Cake wallet, you can do you own research for other none custodial wallets. The strategy is quite tricky because you can be tempted swap your Bitcoin back and forth when it rises to a certain level or dip to a certain level. Swapping your Bitcoin during dip is an option that is open to us, we can either take it or leave it. Do you think that it is a good strategy or a waste of time?

Let me emphasize that this strategy is not important for investors that plans to DCA for like 10 years and more because Bitcoin will reach many ATH before then. It is good for investors that plans to sell within a short time or a few years.

Instead of doing this trading, cause what you're describing is basically trading, so instead of using DExs to do this, it's better to use CEx, I mean, the fee is small and you can both buy and sell in this for easily and more comfortable in spot trading, no leverage, small fees, make profit both in a down trend and up trend.

In my honest opinion, if you want to preserve your Bitcoin, hodl or convert to stable as you've suggested, and wait until it is time for bull run in the market, no need to be swapping back and forth, or swapping and each check point, it's unnecessary.

Bitcoin is a very volatile cryptocurrency, it goes up and comes down any time, to me , if you are investing for long time, their is no need of swapping your bitcoin to stable coin, doing that can make you lost opportunities. This has happened to me before, during cryptocurrency bear market, I swapped my bitcoin to USDT, time came when there was a sudden increase of the coin. So when I swapped the USDT, I was having lesser Bitcoin than before. It sounds to good to swap your cryptocurrency during bear market, but could make you loose opportunities, More especially if you fail to monitor the market closely.

You’re projecting the famous “Sell High Buy Low”  just that your explanation seems to be digging into something else which I will just ignore.

The strategy could work  but it also comes with a risk of FOMO and PANIC at the same time, both could eventually cost you more than what you are planning to get from your strategy if you’re bad at predicting.. Besides, Bitcoin is hard to predict so most investors would just prefer to HODL through it .. which is much better.

No one is stopping you though.. you’re free to make your own decisions

It's a dead trap strategy bro, don't do that.
It sounds so cool and safe but don't do that, to playing the newbie game by doing that, you gotta step up the game and be mature, swapping to stablecoin in the bear season for safety isn't mature.

Swap it once and for all, then leave the market and never come back, never reswap it again to and fro, it will burn you up.

The mature trick should be, leave the Bitcoin as it is during the bear season, grab every opportunity to top up whenever the price drops and continue the process till bull season. If you can't do that, swap your Bitcoin to stablecoin and leave it till bull season starts approaching.

Why should I swap my bitcoin to some stable coin like you have mentioned, I think my first thought is only to make bitcoin investments, and before i starts making bitcoin investments it should be known that we always have bear season and bull season, so why should I be stressing myself in swapping my bitcoin, when I can keep buying and accumulating bitcoin on a consistent basis with having any problem or Challenges, bitcoin at the first place is something we should be more aware of before starting our investment instead of panicking in such manner that you have just stated, because making that decision obviously means that you are panicking.

The magic is very simple to do, when we are in the bear season, hold, do nothing but this because you stand the best position to regain your losses after the market starts rising back, good morning make a decision to sell and take action on it, it has already turned to a loss because we are selling below what we are buying, every investors know this except they are not being informed or have any experience from doing it
