- Taking profit from Bitcoin or altcoins to stable coins or fiat currency but you are waiting to join the market again. It is risky. Because if you rejoin the market when the trend flips from uptrend to downtrend, you might lose your profit.
- Taking profit from your Bitcoin or altcoins and use it to buy real asset: cars, real estates, etc. It has less risk. At least you own something in your hands, for your life, and you buy it from your real money, not from loan. They are liabilities, someone will argue it but those liabilities give you real use cases and have less risk of value loss than cryptocurrency.
In bear market, cryptocurrency can lose 90 to 99% of its all time high values.
