Though the reason of Holding an asset is solely for the reason of long term duration, but some bearish seasons can make the heart of some investors to beat faster.
It is clear that there is no much risk involved in holding an asset either BTC or ALTS but when the Crypto market is suffering a down trend for a longer period, most Holders are prone to sell off their assets as a result of fear. Believing that the market will keep experiencing more down trend, putting their portfolio at risk.
And some others tend to buy more at every significant price drop and even hoping to accumulate more asset at the dip.
As a matter of fact, every holder has no reason to fear because there'll always be a bull season. A clear example is the market trend since the past 7days, BTC reaching over 76k from it's price of about 42k as at January 2024. For those Investors who has placed some of this asset on hold for the past one year is likely to be seeing an x3 or even x5 profit.
In conclusion, every holder has to exercise patience with any asset placed on hold and reduce their emotional stress when the market is bearish because the season for the bulls must always come by.
