For me it's not a big storm but just a correction of a certain size even though there are a lot of people taking losses and in general the market recovery will take place also in this year especially in Q1 2022.
Compared to what we have by June/July, the recent downfall from $67k to $40k may not be a big storm for you but might be still looking like a massive downfall. Still, I agree that we may get into recovery phase here after which may get us into another wave of bullish trend even ATH for most coins will be delayed.
Metaverse and NFT will again be the concepts that carry the cryptocurrency trend.
Yeah, after defi we are into NFT and right now metaverse is seeming to take that hype into a new level but I am afraid that how long it may persist like what will be the another new thing to replace the hype of metaverse and NFT. So, instead of going back to every hype, just investing into top coins alone will help any investor to gain decent profits.
