It does. And it doesn't make me feel good at all. That $30,000 was a long battle. The price rose several times beyond that but it also lost hold of that several times. But whenever there was a little increase beyond that, it would almost immediately be followed with a rejection. This is exactly what's happening with $20,000 right now. Again, this doesn't make me feel good at all. But although this isn't what we really want to happen, the good thing is that it's also an opportunity. There might never be something like this in the near future.
Most don’t feel good when they see their value melting away, but at this point it’s really not worth getting upset because none of us can change the situation for the better anyway. The time ahead is difficult and challenging, but every day we are closer to a new halving (less than 2 years), which will probably be a new starting point for a big bull run, although in the meantime some super positive news can happen that can result with a price increase of 10-20%.
Of course, it is wise to look at situations like this as opportunities, because the famous investor who does not like BTC (WB) invested about $40 billion in various stocks a few weeks ago and will certainly invest more - for people who have money, Santa Claus is this year come quite early
It hit me right in the stomach when I saw how much my BTC is now worth. A few months ago I had a lot less Bitcoin than I do now, and despite currently having more than double of what I had, it's still worth a lot less. While I'm mostly fine with waiting it out, I still become a little disappointed now and then.
History repeats itself, this situation is quite similar to 2018, and it taught me a valuable lesson of not giving up. After the crash, I completely abandoned Bitcoin and the forum itself, totally forgot about my wallets, my account here and everything, in a matter of a few days. My goal now is to stick around, hopefully till the possible recovery of the market, in a year or two at best.
Till then, I'm pretty pessimistic on any kind of recovery within 2022, even $30.000 seems too far from our current point.
