Topic: A Guide for Cryptocurrency Newbies for Overcoming FOMO (Read 567 times)

Even though Hamza2424 got a bit caught up on the pictures and your largely artificial presentation that appears to be a merit fishing kind of a post and that you are likely not providing as much substance as you are making it appear to be, and yes, sure I ended up meriting your post.. when perhaps maybe I should have held back a bit, because it does seem like you probably are not really coming up with too many of your own ideas or even properly sourcing from where-ever you might have ended up getting the ideas in the OP and how you ended up choosing to structure OP.

I am glad some of the members are looking out for plagiarizers and those who are not properly providing source for their information, and I hardly give any shits about images, except when the images have substantive comments or substantive ways of organizing information.. otherwise there is a lot of sharing of memes in order to make various points that are gotten from various image searches.. so the forum seems to be more relaxed about the mostly non-substantive images...

Anyhow, you seem to have had been playing a little dumb with your interaction with lovesmayfamilis's concerns, and maybe if you did not get caught this time or the proof was not strong enough because you covered up your stealing, paraphrasing and/or inproper sourcing, you hopefully will at least take the matter more seriously in the future if you either come up with these kinds of threads or you make posts that are most likely not properly sourced.  You could even cite a few articles and say that you were inspired by this and this and this, and you would like to repackage them.. but yeah, who is going to do that, when they are trying to claim that they just put the ideas together, even though they most likely did not do as much of the organizing and work as they are making it appear to have had been... which seems to be your particular case with this thread... and I had not really noticed it at first.. but I can see it a bit better after a few of the comments... and yeah members need to be putting their sources, just for courtesy sake.. and yeah it is also a bit weasely to be copying others and then rewriting portions of it..... and I will look at your DYOR thread.. in which you decided to put a disclaimer and to say that you had written that.. which sure, maybe you did learn your lesson from a shot over the bow.. which would be a good thing..  

and in the end..  hopefully you learn a lesson instead of being tricky about it, but to instead to do a bit more of the leg work and also a bit more of giving credit to some sources that likely inspired you in regards to your chosen subjects and how you organized them.. .even if there might have been more than one source.. perhaps? perhaps?

By the way, I am really irritated by your use of the term "crypto currency" and also failure/refusal to sufficiently distinguish bitcoin from crypto, so you put bitcoin into the same group, and likely I am also going to be bothered by your DYOR thread because you do the same thing and say that people are confused about the crypto world, blah blah blah. .but you are part of the problem because you are failing/refusing and also propagating a bunch of confusion by your sloppy use of the term crypto and acting like bitcoin is just part of that.. when you have failed/refused to properly and adequately define and/or distinguish what bitcoin actually is in terms of the "crypto scene" and to the extent that anything that you are talking about is relevant to anything, if you don't seem to have any clues about bitcoin's role in the matter... so likely you need to get some of that straight  in your own head . ...

...since you are starting threads and trying to present yourself as being able to organize information and using gobble-dee-gook,  vague and misleading language without clarifying what the fuck you are talking about, which happens to mean that you need to describe what is bitcoin in reference to this vague-ass term that you choose to use, namely crypto.  In other words, in order to provide you with a wee bit of a hint, some things (or even categories in which you chose to talk about in OP) apply to bitcoin, but they do not apply to crypto.. meaning shitcoins.. and shitcoins should be treated as shitcoins.. which bitcoin is not a shitcoin.. but somethings you mention do apply to shitcoins, but you still should be attempting to be clear about which things might apply to both bitcoin and shitcoins and which things might only apply to bitcoin and which things might only apply to shitcoins, but if you were to do that, then you would have to be able to recognize and appreciate the difference, which you don't seem to recognize, either from this thread and from the little I read so far in your DYOR thread..

even the social media accounts of exchanges sometimes do it. it's not false information, they provide advice at the beginning and end of the video. even the decision will come back to all of them. and of course, investing and trading crypto assets is also risky. but there is pressure given to attract more beginners to buy or invest without any knowledge.
If someone is experienced, of course, they won't be affected. but for beginners who are very curious about a lot of news on social media and have a great interest in crypto investment, it will be very easy to get trapped.

You also mentioned a good point "DYOR" which is also a very important step of these days As we know that most of the newbies fell prey to FOMO just because of socia media fake trends. So, Conducting DYOR before taking any decision can be prove very positive step to overcome FOMO. Well, My this Topic gets Old after that i also create another topic on .......>>>[Guide] What is recommended to follow "Social Media Or DYOR" in the crypto world Which i think is also a good topic to read to overcome FOMO for my newbie members.

Because it is very important for newbies to know that there are alot of traps set by influencers by creating fake trending on the social media platforms to catch these newbies in their tricks who don't have any idea about these traps.

FOMO has made some persons accumulate losses instead of making profits, this is a comprehensive guide and I must Say OP did a good job, this guide will help every newbie who comes across it. Decision making is one factor that will impact great on your journey in the crypto space. Due to lack of proper knowledge, some persons results to hurried decisions, this occurs mostly when they certain new about the market.

But it's very important to carefully make decisions, with guidance and DYOR you get to make sound and solid decisions which will help you through your crypto journey. It's Also important to invest in getting knowledge and seeking guidance where necessary as it will really help a long way. After all this mastery will be the remaining rest and you are good in the crypto space.

The point that you have raised is really important that before entering into crypto world put your focus first on learning the basic of cryptocurrency. Try to get a deep understanding of the underlying mechanisms of cryptocurrencies. A proper market research, control emotion, and a DCA method can help you to overcome FOMO.

I am completely on board with these techniques that you have discussed, and although the fact that I am a beginner in the bitcoin market, I aim to put them into practice as a means to improve my own confidence and my ability to make decisions.

hi buddy as i'm pretty new here and in also in the field of crypto currency. i was just looking for the guaidance and by scrolling some of thread i stumbled upon this thread which is really intreasted for me as a newbie

i got to know alot about some terms like DYOR, FOMO and DCA as i have never heard and seen about them anywhere. snowpega did a really good job i hope these terms will help me to in future to overcom my problem and i will be able to take good decions. i also read other post of the member in this thread if anyone have read other tread like this please share with me here i would like to read them as well being a newbie it may really me to add up my information and knowledge Many Thanks!    

so sage words buddy, your are right because any action which is taken in hurry can be a wrong choice thats why i also i mentioned in my top post. Newbies should avoid taking action in hurry or being emotional because they need to work on their knowledge and be ready to enter in the market to understand the market sentiments. In this way, first they will have some good knowledge on which they can be able to take some good decision to overcome their major losses as well.

and second thing i don't think so anyone should be rigid on anyone opinion like i mean to say there are many people who are trying to spread signal kinda knowledge related to market sentiments. i would say newbies should not always be rigid on that kind of opinion instead they should work on their DYOR right?  like sometime they follow these kind of personalities blindly and have to face many losses due to the rigidity on other opinions they follow. 

Indeed, FOMO is something that can really trigger someone, especially newbies, to do things in a hurry, even because they are so afraid of being late, they don't even study in advance what they are going to do. So, maybe not all, but many follow it blindly, without any knowledge or preparation. So the results will actually be dangerous for yourself. Like when investing too, when they are FOO on the hype of a project that they don't even understand, they just follow along, then they probably won't know how the project will continue, how to take profits and so on. As a result, the danger of this FOMO will actually create they more easily experience major losses. This will definitely happen without good knowledge and preparation.

Here is another good read in dealing with FOMO: https://www.investopedia.com/deal-with-crypto-fomo-6455103

To list the things to avoid FOMO given on that link:

• Take the Time to Research
• Rely on Trusted Media Outlets
• You Can’t Win All the Time
• Developing a Guiding Strategy
• Know the Market Is Cyclical
• Learn from Previous Mistakes

Anyone interested on the explanation of those list can check on the given link above.  The link also explains the triggers why people get into FOMO so I guess it is a good thing to visit the given link.  Also I quoted this one from the article:

If a beginner have taken time to follow the due process in learning about bitcoin, this will be their point of establishment and they won't have a mean to exhibit fear on missing out because they have an understanding of what they are doing and have already made the right decision in choosing bitcoin as their investment currency, most cases of where this fear is very common are on those who were altcoins investors, they will always fear this because they don't know what may come after when the market go dips, so for any bitcoin investor, you're halfway solved your FOMO just by choosing bitcoin alone.

Hmm i was just trying to clarify like there should be no reflection in any one's mind what is the source of the image thats why i mentioned. Rest of that many thanks for guiding me in a good way. These tips means me alot. I will try my best to act upon it. Pleasure

Hmm, Well Op this is your direct post to the lovesmayfamilis but I can see here you've mentioned a point of the images used in the content, as far I know I think this was asked by me so, it's really great that to avoid any sort of claim on the images you've designed them at your own still buddy as I said there is no need for these Images, Hope so you've got my point.

I did mention a very casual reason why, in my above post for the Paraphrasing I think you need to wait for the lovesmayfamili's reply because I had never used the detector with a similar kind of interface, so I can't even guess. As far as your concern sometimes when we scan for the Palgrism and Paraphrasing Scan on the free tools they really don't provide reliable results but for testing purposes it's a good approach to at least scan from 2 or 3 different scanners. Don't worry if you haven't abused any of the rules buddy. Remember my Tip for using the images for a more valuable respresnetation.

Hi there

hope you doing well first of all really sorry for the late reply as I was kinda busy in the past few days. I read all the replies and really came to know that this platform has very good potential where I can show my talent to my mates here.

I know Dear people like you are the motivation for newbies like us because when I saw your reply I really got impressed to see your account stats. well, you were trying to say this article is actually not the whole of my science of (OP). I'm not trying to say why you objected me rather than I would say it's your right to ask this question like how I wrote the article right? because by doing this this community will stay clean from redundant users who are just trying to get any position here very soon.

Well, let's get to the point I respect the thing you said So can you please let me know like give me the source link from where/which tool you checked my content? Most of the things I learned from here like from senior members of BTT  which I also mentioned in my article. I put those learned things into my topic so those who are junior to me may learn easily some of my points.

To be very honest I have never seen the link you shared in your post which is somehow relating to my post. If you have any concern about those pictures I used to increase the understandability of post I edit them from Canva on my own. In the end, I would say I did my best to add/compile those things into one post which i learned from my senior members of bitcoin talk. i hope you understand my points and show some positive response.

Many Thanks

If we only talk about cryptocurrency investment, then I would never agree to diversify your coins aside from bitcoin. Know that bitcoin is the only trusted and secured crypto investment so far so if you dare to invest even in top altcoins, expect that there will be inevitable losses that’s bound to happen. That means your profits from bitcoin might only be used up investing with altcoins. That’s the reason why I only apply diversification when it comes to physical investments like real estate or gold. With crypto, I’ll only chose the one and only bitcoin.

For my part, I would advise the OP to add sources where he paraphrased all the information. It is difficult to think that the entire text belongs to the OP since, when checking for plagiarism, there are a lot of phrase matches, which indicates paraphrasing. I found several, but here is an example of one article that is very close in meaning.

https://ncse.info/cryptocurrency-investment/

One thing that should be done to avoid FOMO and that is not to trade with emotion.  Emotion trading often gets us into a problem since the decision is often affected by hype and FUD.  So in order to get rid of FOMO, we must get rid of the emotions so that we can trade rationally.

Emotion can cloud our rational decision-making, so in order to see the market trend correctly and see what lies beyond the hype and FUD, we must stay calm and avoid greed and fear to control our heads.

When we mean diversify, the best way to diversify is not to diversify into the same kind of investment. Since you are already holding bitcoin, when you want to diversify, let it be on stock, bond, gold or real estate. If you are bitcoin holder and you diversify into altcoins, it means that you have made the wrong decision which might bring regrets to you.

Bitcoin is valueable than all the altcoins joined together athey are duplicate of bitcoin and no need to sell your bitcoin for altcoin.

All investment needs patience for notoring so that it can grow. I don't know why people think that bitcoin is different from other investment because they got the wrong information on bitcoin. Patience leads to success because it shows investment commitment.

Yes, I agree with you on this very statement of yours about how setting a clear objective can help make a newbie cope with the "Fear Of Missing Out" when it comes to Bitcoin investment, because what a clear objective does is to help an individual know how much fiat he/she will love to invest in BTC, whether weekly, monthly or yearly. While you will notice that with such individual, whether the price of Bitcoin rises of fall, they never get worried, simply because they already got a plan, unlike a non-experience member who might invest all his funds, and if the price of BTC starts falling again, he/she start getting panicking.

I agree with you that the thread counts towards tips or strategies to manage FOMO rather than a guide as it doesn’t have specific steps to arriving at a result but then, you’ve raised concerns that are valid or relevant to the thread of observerd.

Impulsive decisions which is one acting out of thought and no conscious examination of the systems and dynamics within. Mostly, it sterns from lack of knowledge on the course or not enough time to take the necessary steps in understanding the context to the course but still, you want to jump in for fear of coming too late.

The first approach towards any course and not just cryptocurrency is, seeking knowledge on that which you hope to invest in. It gets serious when money is involved and mo hasty steps is necessary as, scammers prioritize on hasty steps and lack of proper knowledge on a course.
Education ensures you some securities about your decision as you become conscious on what could result from your decisions and how to mitigate flaws.

This is one advice I am yet to actually get used to, portfolio diversification in cryptocurrency is something I find funny, because If one is investing into bitcoin as a sole investment then it should be bitcoin In totality and nothing like diversification to other cryptocurrencies. It is because once bitcoin faces any challenges like falling then I don’t see any cryptocurrency surviving either. Once you have some assets into bitcoin mostly an amount you can lose then it is best to diversify into other assets outside the crypto world such that even if the market of cryptocurrency becomes unstable you can have other assets to fall back to and this way you would have beaten FOMO too.

The only place you would think of diversification is when you have some set amount that for only Alticoins then I wound also say you shouldn’t put them into one but rather into the top Alticoins. But be rest assured that even if you diversify in Alticoins it doesn’t save you from losing because they didn’t have guaranteed returns and are seeing as just pump and dump coins. So for long term holding prioritize only bitcoin as cryptocurrency asset

This comes timely cause we will soon be seeing lots of posts about bull market and the halving which is coming up next year.
FOMO will drive lots of new investors into many coins with little or no value as they chase the profits that they see in blogs about certain coins which have given a certain return on investment and they are driven to buy shitcoins.

OP you do not need to write the topic title at the beginning of the thread and do not have to increase the size or change the color of the text. And as already suggested, you do not need images within texts, this forum is majorly text based so we should only use images when it is really necessary to relay a message.

You have created a good topic, and it was very useful for me, as I didn't know that to avoid FOMO we can use the DCA factor, it is a very creative method by the way. For example, if I am getting into the FOMO of buying BTC at the price of $29k and I do know that in the long term, BTC will make a new ATH but still get into the FOMO just to buy BTC at a lesser price. Unfortunately due to my greed in me, I also did not have that opportunity of $29k and did not take the entry and now the market is not coming down.

But we can avoid that if we would do DCA, like if we take entries in small parts while keeping some funds in the save zone to deal with the market when it dumps. I do have some idea about it before, but I am just agreeing with your method and you really learned a lot, in your time here. I can see you are almost 1 year old here but you are not that active. I would love to know from where you learn the above things. And you should try to add some facts too along with the source links. TO create something more interesting.

Hmm, A good effort, a couple of tips to improve while creating a new topic next time, the the secondary headings are oversized it looks weird. It's good you are using colors in the Heading.  You are adding necessary Photos it's not a blog, we use photos to show some useful large set of data or to show emotions and from both of these there's nothing in the images you are using. Becasue the motive for writing a post on the blog and writing a post here in the forum (I think you can get my point).

It looks like you've created all these images by yourself because I cant see any source references, yes then it totally fine if not buddy better to add a source link because you can be careless anymore with the rules.


For the rest, I think your post is effective but a couple more errors as you are suggesting DCA here I'm giving the benefit of the doubt due to bounding the topic to a particular length, as you are just explaining the DCA in much more generic way as it's not that simple you really want substantial gains. Due to the lack of experience and limitations strategic implementation and personal choices. On DCA you need to work   as per my observation and are pretty new to it, I'm getting bossy but I think while guiding someone we need to figure out a lot of factors, and the strategic implementation of the DCA holds a significant role while execution.

Good work OP the idea behind your post is quite valid and I respect you for that but I would love to suggest when you taking about a guide into crypto-currency for newbies I expect you to be more educating like talk to newbies about what crypto-currency is all about.

Personally I would suggest you talk to them about Crypto-currency from things like
Terminology: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/terminology-126798

Bitcoin wallet: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/general-bitcoin-wallets-which-what-why-1631151

And any thing that is about the basics of crypto-currency.

You have made a great effort in compiling this article and it is really comprised of useful points which not only newbies but experts should also keep in mind. I mean, I am a senior but sometimes, fall prey to a FOMO just because I trust some person, like on Twitter AKA X or on Discord, and I know that the posts from that person are accurate but unfortunately, the same person (I am following) if fall prey to FOMO then he will make a post accordingly and I as a fan of his accuracy will not doubt for another second and abruptly follow him. And end in FOMO as well.

The above example shows that we should do a search from our side, even though if we are following a top Ultra Pro Max expert. They (pro) are also human and they also make mistakes. But the point is they make fewer mistakes because they have more knowledge about the industry and newbies don't even newbies lack the main factor of objective. They think of BTC and investment as quick rich schemes. But it is not?

I recently, read a topic in which OP received a phishing link, I mentioned the story of Vitalik's hacks, which resulted in the loss of almost $691k dollars. If you wanted to read it check out some recent posts of me. The point is in Vitalik's case people also got into FOMO and thought that they might not get another opportunity like this and go straight into a trap. And end up losing money. So better to remain sharp in the crypto industry.

Introduction:
The cryptocurrency market is a thrilling space with the potential for significant gains, but it's also notorious for its extreme fluctuation. As beginners, it's easy to fall victim to the Fear of Missing Out (FOMO) phenomenon, making hurry decisions and emotional decisions that can lead to financial losses which is guess not good at all. In this article, we will explore strategies to help newcomers to overcome FOMO in cryptocurrency field and navigate them in cryptocurrency world with confidence. So, let’s get head to the topic.


Educate Yourself:
The first step in overcoming FOMO (Fear of missing out) in cryptocurrency field is to education yourself. Take the time to understand the fundamentals of blockchain technology like how cryptocurrencies really work, and the different types of coins and tokens available in the market. Knowledge is your most mighty weapon against your fear and uncertainty. You should have to know about the FA (Fundamental Analysis) and TA (Technical Analysis) for being in this field.

Set Clear Objectives:
Establish clear investment goals and a well-defined strategy like DCA (Doller-Cost Averaging). Determine how much you can afford to invest without impacting your financial stability like if you are able to invest 10$ to 100$ than its sound well for being in the market and set realistic profit and loss targets like what you’d like to see in your PNL. Having a plan in place will help you stay focused on your long-term objectives its sound Better when you are doing accumulation of you desired token or coin in cryptocurrency field.

Avoid Impulsive Decisions:
Cryptocurrency prices can be extremely volatile means the prices of the cryptocurrencies changes time to time, and it's easy to get caught up in the excitement of sudden price surges it also happen a lot of time when you are listing to the rumors surrounding on the social media Sometime these news are fake to liquidate the short investors. Remember that FOMO (Fear of missing Out)-driven decisions often lead to regret.


Diversify Your Portfolio:
Diversification is a risk management strategy which can help you to reduce the impact of volatility on your investments. Don't put all your funds into a single cryptocurrency; instead of that you should spread your investments across multiple assets like different Alt-coins but do it after deep research so that you can diversify your portfolio very well. In this way, you can reduce the risk associated with any single alt-coin's price fluctuations and increase your portfolio.

Practice Patience:
Cryptocurrency markets can be highly speculative and driven by hype and most Probably some hypes came from our social media which can be fake most of the time. The main key to avoid FOMO to remain patient and avoid making sudden or aggressive decisions based on emotions. Successful investors often hold their assets through market fluctuations because they do FA and TA before taking any action and believing in the long-term potential of their investments.

DCA (Use Dollar-Cost Averaging):
DCA (Dollar-cost averaging) involves investing a fixed amount of money at regular intervals, as I have aforementioned like you are investing 10$ to 100$ each week of month for the Adaption of DCA technique from the cash inflow you have each moth regularly. This strategy can help reduce the impact of price volatility because at the end of the day you will see your portfolio giving you good profit and you'll buy more when prices are low and less.

The main thing is that how you are adapting this technique having good decisions by doing some Good Research. So be active and stay patient to Avoid FOMO (Fear of missing out).

Don't Overextend Yourself:
Never invest more than you can afford to lose rather than newbie should learn first and invest very short amount to see how actually market behave and to know its sentiments as well. Cryptocurrency markets are known for their unpredictability, because there is no one who can time the market so accurately and it's essential to protect your financial well-being.

Seek Guidance:
This one is very important to stay in touch with some seniors but also DYOR (Do Your Own Research) before taking any action. If you're still unsure about navigating the cryptocurrency world like market sentiments and some kinda analysis. Consider seeking advice from experienced investors or financial professionals who can advice you but after that its Upto you how you take action on that but the thing which is highly recommended is the DYOR (Do Your Own Research) doing this it will bring a lot of knowledge to you. Joining online communities or forums can also provide valuable insights and support which also can help you to avoid some wrong Decisions.


Conclusion:
Overcoming FOMO in the cryptocurrency market is a Important step towards becoming a successful investor. By educating yourself and learning the sentiments of market, setting clear objectives, and practicing patience and stay discipline, you can make informed and good decisions that put you on the right way with your long-term goals. Remember that the cryptocurrency journey is a long-distance running race where no one have any exact idea because of its volatile and fluctuate behavior , calculated choices will ultimately lead you to more sustainable success.
