Not necessarily. If you consider the investors who are waiting for the down market to buy cheap coins, they are not losing anything at all. Instead, they are gaining. They are taking it as a perfect opportunity to gain more wealth. And then there are also those who were able to buy when the price was way cheaper a long time ago. And then, why lose when you are not selling them?
Majority of the people lose money and this is quite disheartening in this type of market. Not everyone loses money as their are people that place short trades in the market. These people make money with it in my opinion
moments of crisis in the market are designed for those people who do not know exactly what they came to the market and what their goals are
They dont loose money as long as they are not selling their coin. Remember that as long as you have 1 BTC in your hand then it stays 1 BTC all the time. If you start looking at it in terms of your local currency value then you are giving it foreign exchange rate and thus that is but obvious to go down and up in the value according to the volume of trade that is being put over it. Its better not to look at it in that way otherwise you will always see yourself in a loss.
Everyone looses dollar nomination of the bitcoin and not the real value. So if you are holding then you still got the same crypto currency and nothing else. When the market is down its more or less better opportunity to trade even more effectively as you can buy more in such situation.
Yeah you are right not selling your coins means no losing of money, but the problem is that many people are impatient or they need money for their financial problems. They are compulsive to sell their coins. To avoid this thing I always say that one should invest only extra money in cryptocurrency. Anything could be happen because it is cryptocurrency world. Everyone looses dollar nomination of the bitcoin and not the real value. So if you are holding then you still got the same crypto currency and nothing else. When the market is down its more or less better opportunity to trade even more effectively as you can buy more in such situation.
Most of coin holders - yes, they do loose money when market falls but there are still a number of people who manage to earn profits in such conditions by daily trading.
The daily trade is not so easy for almost all the people who own coins. You need to be a well off person and have to have a weighted portfolio if you want to day trade. Majority of the people chose to hold their coins and simply stop trading when the market is down. Moreover, a down market just means that the business activities are down and the portfolio is not gaining weight but the market ultimately reaches the phases of recovery and boom anyhow.
"Everyone loses money when the market is down right?"
Only believers, permabulls and people that do not know what hedging is.
This is a big mistake made very often by people that own cryptocurrencies. You don't lose money but you lose value. In december, when BTC was 20.000$ you could have bought a Ford Mondeo/Fusion with it but now with the same BTC you can barely buy a Smart. So, stop being lazy, learn TA and when you make a bad call be a man and accept it because you do not want to buy and hold in a bear market. Imagine buying BTC at 17k and still holding it (with altcoins is worse). Could you handle the pressure? Many will say that those who bought almost the TOP of each of BTC's bull markets (except the last one) made huge profits but how many of them were able the handle the pressure of a drawdown of at least 75% drawdown? Or how many of them were able to hold the coin when they were in profit for the first time after the bear market ended?

that isn't loosing money to me, that's an opportunity for new investors to enter the market, and existing investos to increase their portfolio base by way of buying more bitcoin. it is better to buy when the price is low, with an anticipation for a future rise in price.
I think, not everyone loses money when the market goes down even though many of them lose money because they panic, for people who have a good strategy and they still hold the coins they have then they will not lose their money and still have the opportunity to get profit when the coin price rises again
It's true that not everyone loses their money when the market is down because the fortune of your money is depend on your decisions and depend on how would you manage it wisely. The market is unpredictable but your decisions are predictable so you must be wise enough on every plan and decisions you made especially when the market is in fall.

Yes, many people have faced a lot of losses in this down market. Because almost all coin has dumped too much.For which I lost a lot of money on this bear market.
I do not think that every one loose money when the market is down. There are those who have invested long ago when the prices were lower than the current down prices. They still have a margin of profit and can earn if they sell their coins but such people tends to keep the coins and rather wait for a market which can give them as more as possible. This is the primary quest of all the investors and should not be regarded as greed because greed is only a factor that affects rationality.

right, so low market could be just an opportunity to purchase extra coins with a good discount

Not everyone losses money when the market is down.Those who are invest their money for short time or they much needed money may be they looser.But on the other hand whose who hold their bitcoin for next time when price will be high they will be gainer.
but if that person can buy the coin at a very low price, he can still make a profit even if the market is down and this is only for people who can see this chance in a long time ago. not all people losses their money when the market is down and I am sure that there is any person that still makes the profit from the market and if you can do margin trading, you can make a short trade when the market is down so you can make a profit from the coin. but for doing margin trading, it needs high skill so you can detect where the price wants to go.
I think only about 5% of trader possible made profit from current situation of crypto market, and others 95% is loss loss money, iam one of the trader that loss alof of money. But this loss can be recover when next bull market coming, i still hold all my coin untill others bullish come, and i pretty sure bull market is will be coming soon.
It is a good thing that you understand the realities of this market, many people seem to think that just because they are trading they're going to get money as if the money will just come out of nowhere and they're going to get rich by trading, but every single dollar that you get out of trading will come from other traders that are going to lose their money, that is why it's so hard to make money out of trading.
For those who bought or invested in the market when the price was high, then obviously this means that their investments are running in loss. But we should remember that they will not lose a single penny unless they sell their investments at a low price. Moreover a real Investor always invests on the project rather than just throwing his money on the speculation of the coin So I think it is better to hold on and wait for the market to recover. There is no need to panic as the whole market is down and not your specific coin.
The truth is when the bearish market was happening, some people called these situation as a chance. They take advantage of this bad market to buy more and more. However this can't be applied to everyone. Money is limited from person to person. They want to buy, but they can't. Only some big whales was ready taking the chance. It's really disheartening, but this actually is the truth.
No one is out of the trend. It has dragged so long. investors and traders lose faith and hope. But that is also the time when crypto becomes the most special. The loss is unavoidable.
That's right, but it's not necessarily money. It shows the value of your portfolio is reduced. But you should know that investing is a long-term business. You should invest in a certain altcoin for a long time and do not be afraid when the market goes down. If you are confident in your portfolio, you will easily succeed.
