#美联储重启降息步伐 In a bear market, those who suffer the most losses aren’t necessarily the ones who are stuck holding assets. More often, it’s those who can’t sit still after seeing prices drop by half—thinking they’ve found a bargain, but actually jumping into an even deeper pit.



People who haven’t truly experienced a bear market can’t imagine how badly altcoins can crash. Drop by half first? That’s just the appetizer. After that, they can easily fall another 80%, all the way down until you lose the desire to even check the charts—only then does the price finally stop.

This is the cruelest part of a bear market—it’s not just about simple declines, but about repeatedly creating the illusion that “the bottom is in.” When there’s a rebound, you think the turnaround has come; when prices stabilize for a few days, you feel it’s time to buy the dip. In this psychological game, the market always wins.

If you’ve already cut your losses and exited, keep your hands in check. A 50% drop ≠ the bottom, and a rebound ≠ a reversal. If you can’t grasp these basic principles, every move you make is just a gamble. The unique volatility of the crypto market means the importance of risk control is always overestimated—in reality, it’s never estimated enough. Keeping a steady mindset is more valuable than anything else.

Here comes that "bottoming out" theory again, I have to say, "Wow." The last time someone said that, they're still in the basement now.

Really, every time it bounces, someone rushes in and is harvested again. Have you learned your lesson?

Another person advising to cut losses, but to be honest, this time there's actually some substance. I'm the type who gets itchy hands whenever I see a rebound—only after losing did I understand.

Oh man, this is the painful lesson I learned last year from getting stuck holding altcoins. Back then, I really thought I’d struck gold, but they just kept dropping until I ended up deleting my market apps...

I see people frantically buying the dip during the rebound again—this time they're really going to take a big loss. Honestly, every bear market is a lesson in mindset; the market just loves to torment people like this. Hey, it's still the same old saying: risk control always comes first, don't gamble your mindset against the market. Don't blindly catch falling knives; a rebound doesn't equal a reversal. No matter how many times this is said, people still fall into the trap. I've already closed my eyes and let it be. No matter how much it drops, it won't reach my psychological price—mainly, I just don't want to get liquidated. Seriously, the worst part of a bear market isn't the drop itself, it's those fake rebounds that seem like the bottom. Watching others go all in just makes me laugh—can't wait to see how they cry later. To the brothers who have exited, stay strong. Don't get tricked back in by a few percentage points of gains—that's the real trap.

I’ve been burned here before, it was brutal—slashed in half, bounced back, then slashed in half again. My mindset completely collapsed, even my scalp tingled from the stress. I regretted it so much.

It's true, those who tried to buy the dip but ended up halfway up the hill are suffering even more than those who are just stuck holding. Every time there's a rebound, it feels like the bottom is in, but then the market takes another hit. Altcoins, you know, getting cut in half is just the beginning—what comes after can really mess with your mindset. I've seen too many people lose more and more through repeated rebounds. Stop fighting the market—those who cut their losses are the real winners. Keep a steady mindset, and you'll last longer.
