Basically we use cryptocurrencies as a means of investment instead of using them as a means of payment. So surely most people are thinking the same thing about this and trying not to overspend their assets. After all, in a bear market like this it would be better if we hold it until the bull market occurs rather than having to spend it now, instead I myself continue to increase the amount of my assets for me to take in the future.
In my own country I haven't seen anyone close to owning cryptocurrency they use as a means of payment, so the chances of using it for shopping are very slim.
That is very logical, because everyone will clearly see the good opportunities that can still happen in the future. So continuing to save assets and then continuing to try to add assets to the same model is a very extraordinary option as long as everyone is able to hold it without any worries, because I personally also still save assets and never spend it unless there is an urgent need. After all, I have never panicked about the current conditions and I still really believe in the potential of the assets that I hold now, especially in Bitcoin.
People's mindset toward spending their crypto in a downtrend is not profitable. I don't know why we are always talking about profit. But in this kind of season, most people tend to sell their altcoins if they need to, and if not, they will be on hold. We should always be ready to sell because we don't know what will happen to the altcoin if we don't (like if there are big news coming), but in bitcoin, I say no matter what the market status is, as long as I don't have any profit or I don't need the money, I will still keep holding.
Everyone's mindset is also different on this matter because everyone also has their own reasons why they have to sell in conditions like now. Although those who prefer to sell altcoins when they need money and keep Bitcoin under any circumstances are people who are extremely patient and I also really like their method because I also sacrifice altcoins very often in order to keep Bitcoins until now.
