If we won't see bullish and bearish cycle then, hence volatility has probably stop serving its purpose which is very unlikely. There's no way it will happen, otherwise the people will lost its interest in the crypto market.

However, hodling may not be the best but it's always the safest one, most particularly for beginners. If you find it hard to timing the market, which I guess is everyone's problem, then stick to hodling. Surely you won't lose there.

Traditionally, one of the most effective strategies has been timing market cycles—exiting at the peak and re-entering at the bottom.

Yes, timing the market is informal trading and we know that trading most especially cryptocurrency trading leads to a lot of losses since the market is mostly unpredictable and for that if the market goes against when you already traded you will be in a sorrowful state.


The best thing to do is to buy Bitcoin and hold it for a certain long time so that the market will recover and give you the desired profits in the long run.

Well said mate!
The issue of timing has always been my watch door, which resolve to me losing a lot of money, then I always think that is all about buying low and selling high, and in so doing I'm always conscious of time looking at the trade.
I was always having little time frame consideration, not knowing the real play has to do with long time frame.

You should not be quick to let over-regulation limit your options. Look into De-Fi exchanges and also some traditional ones with no KYC. Also, remain aware of Bitcoin's established history of brutal bear markets. Accurate market timing is not needed to successfully sell part of your holdings when prices surge higher and buy back more when the crashes come.

Many traders have relied on stablecoins for this, using them as a safe haven during downturns.

However, the landscape is shifting. New regulations in the EU are tightening control over digital assets, leaving only a few approved options for stable storage.
One dominant player is emerging, but concerns about centralization and potential asset freezes are growing.

This raises an important question: What if the safest move isn’t to trade in and out but to rethink the entire approach?
With uncertainty surrounding off-ramps and increasing scrutiny on transactions, long-term holding may become the best option by default.
Perhaps the era of cycling between bull and bear markets is coming to an end, and the real power play is to stay in the game permanently.

The truth is that people would always try to seek ways to increase their investment and from what they have been told crypto-currency is a very good way of increasing their investment.
With stories about Dogecoin, Shiba and other alts that has at a point made profit people I don't think that we would see a decline in buying low alts and selling when high strategy, but to the best of my knowledge it has lots of risks. With scam and useless projects feeding on the situation investors has lots of options but only very few actually yield any result. I just believe in holding Bitcoin right now.

If you could get good timing in the market for sure that is surely going to be a higher profit for you but it's always difficult to do that in any way since you cannot really predict anything, most of the time we are gonna sell at the wrong timing and there are only a few traders that is going to be lucky to sell at the top of the market. I mean stablecoin is convenient and been using it for years not, there are for sure some issues and we have seen stablecoins like USDT get some problems even having some kind of drop on their market price.

You're the only one who can see how risky it is in your country, there are a lot of ways to store your assets, there are tons of stablecoins, you could take out your funds, etc. If you think it is going to be difficult or your gonna have some kind of problem, then you better do it the safest way possible, Staying in trading for sure is gonna be good move as long as you could sustain it, I mean at some point there will be a huge drop the question is, can you hold it on bear market? it is easy to hold at bull market, its great to take profit, personally I would sell some if I can store it on stablecoin.

I've never cycled between markets because I thought that moving money to and from exchanges poses too much risk.
I'd lose my anonymity, mix my old coins with whatever comes on exchange, risk being hacked, have to go through KYC process, assign my addresses to my real name... Too troublesome.

I'd only convert some of my coins to cash at a p2p exchange, or physical exchange, then during a bear market go to a bitcoin ATM and buy some bitcoin with cash with no KYC. Unfortunately that came with high fees, which is why I'd never do that with more than 1% of my capital.

As for the market cycles, I believe they'll diminish. We can already observe this by looking at bull market corrections. It used to be normal for bitcoin to correct 30% in bull runs, but last year we only saw approximately 10%. The way I see it, there will be no more 80% bear market corrections.

It's very true to my mind. It's almost impossible to time the market, you are either lucky and sell coins during a right time or there is a very high chance that you'll sell at a wrong price, then it starts growing, you become a victim of FOMO, then market falls, you sell it and you'll be in a loss.

EU banned only USDT but it was never the best stablecoin. There are better ones like USDC and the liquidity is normal, next to USDT. By the way, if someone is afraid of freezes, they should use DAI.
I think that no stablecoin is safe long-term and after lots of thinks, I came to the conclusion that you don't really need to convert your money in stablecoin or stable currency. Convert Bitcoin to another popular currency like Ethereum and try to earn more coins. Don't look the value of your coins in USD, focus on growing the numbers of either Bitcoin or Ethereum. I think that this is the best long-term strategy.

Stable coins have always been centralized and the issuers have always had the ability to freeze it even if you stored it in your own wallet, it has never been a 'safe haven' and it is not recommended to store it for the long term. So my point is that the people who 'trusted' it and used it during the bear market will still likely do the same thing.
