What Does a Bull Run Feel Like in Crypto?
I’ve been through some ups and downs in the crypto market, but I haven’t really experienced a true bull run yet. For those who’ve been around during one, I’m curious:
What’s it actually like to experience a bull run in crypto?
How does it feel to watch your portfolio grow? How do you manage the emotions—whether it’s excitement, anxiety, or even FOMO? Were there any moments where things went too fast and got overwhelming?
Also, how do you stay level-headed and make smart decisions when prices are skyrocketing?
I have seen this happen twice, the first time I didn’t understand how Bitcoin works and the second time I had to sell when I was convinced that the price had risen to a level that it could not rise from again and the strongest indicator of this is the continuation of hearing positive news without the price rising, then it would be the perfect moment to sell. Generally you should keep 30% to 50% of your Bitcoin and not sell it until after 10 to 20 years and then sell the rest to buy again when the price drops and so on.
It depends on your knowledge level, really.
Back in 2017, I was really dumb and inexperienced so what I was feeling was generally what idiot ‘investors’ were feeling — a lot of euphoria and unrealistic expectations; thinking that the way to go for all industries was to tokenize everything and all that dumb crap.
