To be honest, I've had this question for quite a while. I keep seeing people claiming to just hold and hold; it'll take one, two, three, or whatever years for the next bull market. However, I'm often wondering: do you ever feel tired of waiting for Bitcoin to thrive? The past few months, or the whole past yearI'm not sure I've lost track of timehave been quite stale. Bitcoin has been ranging between $25.000 and $28.000 for quite a while. The volatility compared to other periods is lower than we're used to, or at least, to what I was used to in the past.
The motivation of getting much profit gives hopes and makes holders not tired of waiting. As long as there is enough funds for the daily needs and there is no need for extra money for emergencies then it is not tiring to wait since it is just an excess money that is not needed for the dailies.
I feel that there isn't too much excitement and this adrenaline feeling anymore; suddenly you'd see Bitcoin climb or crash; you'd be curious when it'd stop, what your next move would be, or simply feel accomplished seeing your money's value grow. Price movements are quite insignificant at this point compared to the huge pumps or dumps that occurred in 2020 or 2021.
People get excited not of the present price but of the future profits, and the fuels them to have patience and persever until their target selling price is met.
Don't get me wrong, I'm not against holding, nor am I getting frustrated, at least not yet; I did it in the past and regretted it, even though my only source of income is signature campaigns. It's just that sometimes you can't stop the thoughts from circling around your head. I generally didn't bother to even look at it's price, but I've recently started feeling a little wearied. Perhaps it has to do with the life-induced stress that I've discussed in a previous thread. Who knows? How do you cope with waiting?
I fully understand your point. There is always time in our lives that we exhausted our patience but we must find way to replenish it so that all our waiting and perseverance in waiting for huge profit won't be wasted.
