People become panic because they don't have much knowledge about what they are doing, so, they are always in tantrums whenever they are seeing that their investment is dropping, they can't sleep, they can't eat properly and most of the time they are complaining in the community what is happening. Compare to who had read the whitepaper,did a proper research, knows the team, they are calm and just relaxing.
I mean, when they realize that bitcoin itself growth thousand times so they would believe its also possible in other coins.
That's only the opportunity or they are just one sided if they will only think of that possibilities, however, if they will also try to look on the other side, they will understand that there is no assurance that they will be profitable in just a short period of time as BTC before it pump so high, it also struggles in the early stage, so hopefully they will hold as that is necessary to everyone who think of big time return.
