Market's been drowning in FUD lately, man. Every dip gets treated like the sky's falling. Classic cycle really—whenever prices pull back, the fear machine kicks into overdrive and everyone's suddenly doom-posting everywhere. You know how it goes: one bad headline, couple of negative tweets, and suddenly half the community's convinced we're headed to zero.

The irony? The OGs who've been through multiple bear markets barely flinch anymore. They just sit back and watch the chaos unfold while accumulating on the cheap. Meanwhile newer folks are panic selling at the worst possible times, feeding right into the FUD cycle.

It's wild how predictable it all is—fear, uncertainty, and doubt wash over the market like clockwork. But that's also where the real opportunities hide if you can keep your head straight.

NGL, this round of FUD really can't hold up anymore. Newcomers start shouting bankruptcy after a single dip, while veterans quietly buy at the bottom...

Another round of FUD washout show... Look at how panicked these newbies are Definitely the harvest season for retail investors, buying at low prices is the most comfortable That's why OGs never miss a bear market, and newbies always scream at the top Predicting the next big news will trigger another wave of panic selling Wait, could this FUD really be a bit different this time? Human nature is like this, always swinging between fear and greed Every time they say to stay calm and hold, but in the end, emotions take over Big institutions are just waiting for you to sell off, accumulating quietly is no problem Some people really should take a good look at historical cycles... they tend to make the same mistakes over and over

The new rookies are panicking again. How much did this wave of decline actually amount to? OGs have been quietly buying up, just waiting to watch the show. With so many cycles in history, haven't you learned yet? A drop is an opportunity; panic is free money.

Nah, this is the filtering mechanism—newbies are automatically eliminated, while the veterans continue to profit.

NGL, this is the difference between retail investors and whales. Beginners cry and call their moms when prices drop, while veterans have already set up ambushes. Really, every sharp decline is the same show... Panic selling is actually the best buying opportunity. When FUD comes, it's best not to look at the group. The more you look, the more you'll be brainwashed into selling. That's right, those with a steady mindset have already started to buy the dip, while the panicked are still losing money. History always repeats itself, it's just that the participants are different. I'm actually more excited about this drop... Truly, the opportunity has arrived.

Nah, this is the standard operation for harvesting the leek, it's exhausting just to watch --- Old people hoarding coins, newcomers running away, the script is the same every year... --- It's always like this, when FUD comes, everyone panic sells, so stupid --- Really, "keep your head straight" is perfect, but most people just can't do it --- You're right, but executing it is damn hard. I only understand after being cut --- OGs are just making panic money from new leeks, cycle after cycle --- The opportunity is indeed there, it all depends on whether you're willing to go against the trend --- It's not the first time, yet you're still afraid. How can you get out of the game like this? --- Emotions always dominate the price, fundamentals are rarely looked at --- Why is it so hard to stay rational, haha

Look at these people starting to panic again. Every time it drops a little, they shout about clearing their positions. It's really funny. I've seen through this routine long ago. When FUD comes, everyone panics. I buy more as it drops. This is how beginners are. They lack resolve. Wait two years and you'll understand. Actually, the best time to get in is when it drops. It all depends on whether you're brave enough to buy. Daily negative news bombardment. Those with a steady mindset have already made a fortune. Honestly, those who don't move during such times are the real winners. Everyone else is just giving OG chips.

It's just so surreal—every time it drops a few percent, someone is crying and mourning. The new rookies have been wiped out, and the veterans are still bottom fishing. Those with poor mental states are really just giving OGs money.

Sold out again, and I didn't buy the dip this time... Seeing OGs buy at low prices makes me feel uncomfortable.
