My only fear regards bitcoin is that internet becomes unavailable at some moment of our history due to massive wars or censorship. That is the kind of uncertainty I most fear when thinking if I should keep my investments in bitcoin or not. In extreme situations I'm not sure if digital goods are a good idea, so it's preferable to focus in physical intrinsic stuff, which you can have direct access to, without having to rely on a third party service or item to transact or deal with.

On the other hand, in a chaotic scenario like that, bitcoin would fit as a decent choice to be used to help rebuilding the world, once the storm is over and new times begin. Consequently it might be worthful to keep holding even when the scenario looks the worst possible.

That's what I was thinking when there were rumors that WWIII will broke out due to Russia/Ukarine conflict. In such scenarios it will be impossible to come in contact with your bitcoin and for daily living we need some physical stuff that has some value. But then again, in which physical asset to convert is again a big question as fiat will be useless in case we have uncertain situation like WWIII.

When it comes to bitcoin I believe that every price is a good price to buy. If only I had enough fiat then I would be buying bitcoin every week.
Although I am accumulating but who doesn't want a lot of coins. So whether you buy at a higher price or lower, if the price went further down then just collect fiat and keep buying more.
BTC always recovers and goes to ATH. It's just a matter of time and then after that you are already in profits. So it depends on you when to sell.

One thing for sure is that Bitcoin never disappoints. I cannot say the same about shitcoins such as LUNA or SHIBA INU. With a proven record of development and innovation, Bitcoin's demand should only become higher over time. That, coupled with a limited supply should make the cryptocurrency a lot more valuable in the future. I'd recommend anyone to keep investing in Bitcoin especially during a bear market in order to reap huge rewards in the future.

Losers are going to sell, but those who're smart will accumulate more coins no matter what. As long as there's a strong community backing Bitcoin every step of the way, the cryptocurrency will last for a very long time. Just my opinion

Obviously bitcoin is people's choice of cryptocurrency to invest in. Bitcoin has proven time over time that it is the best cryptocurrency to hold in the long term.
Although there are many altcoins to invest currently but bitcoin is most of the people's first choice.
It is still holding a dominance of 42% versus all the altcoins combined so this shows that even during a down trend like this it still holds it's value at best.
Accumulating bitcoin in a down trend is the best thing to do and I think people should buy as much BTC as they can before the price goes back above $45k.

What would you do in uncertain times?

I never understood those people who don't sell when bitcoin goes up and then, when it starts going down, they get scared and even sell losing money.

The simplest explanation for that is that, these weak hands made the purchase when Bitcoin is in the process of hitting the ATH or in the process of recovery after these weak hands found out that Bitcoin is capable of these unprecedented rise.
And then when Bitcoin starts correction, they tend to freak out and withdraw immediately to avoid further lose and then come here posting about "Why Bitcoin is dying?" or "Is Bitcoin would still be able to recover?" lol this sounds hilarious but it's kinda true.

In terms of uncertainty, is better you sell off your coins at that moment. Is better to lose a little percentage of the money than losing a large percentage of it. But this still draws back to the type of coin you’re holding. Shit coins are better sold off immediately if there is uncertainty that its gonna fall down in its worth but stable coins and the likes of BTC, Etherium, BNB can still be kept because those coins will definitely pump back as the market keeps going.

What do you think we should do with our investments in times of uncertainty?

Nothing. If you hold, keep HODLing. If you buy, keep buying. Don't do as many people do, when the price goes down, they get scared, think it is going to go to 0 and don't buy. Only to regret it when the price goes up again.

Now is the time to buy. And if you already have a good amount that you hold, keep holding.

Yes I also agree as you said, but different people have different opinions and thoughts, so it's not wrong if they feel afraid and it's more to secure their money than later on, they feel they have lost their money, it's better for them to hold on and keep the money just.

A few days ago I talked about this a bit but I didn't go into depth as such and I wanted to see what you guys thought. What would you do in uncertain times?

I am a more long term investor and don't like to sell my coins at the first sight of a bear market. Finding the right time to sell and to buy is very hard, that is why HODL investing is so attractive to many investors. Dealing with uncertainty is part of the game and it shouldn't be a quick stomach decision when to sell. First of all it depends on what do you expect from the future. Selling now all the crypto coins just to buy them back in a few months at a similar level doesn't seem like a good idea. We should also have a plan what to do with the money after sell, holding large amounts of cash is also not a good idea at the moment. If there is no existential threat to our investment than it is best to hold on in my opinion.

for now I'm holding back and waiting until the market recovers and gives optimal results, that's what is recommended because the minus has reached 50%. And don't ever blame others when we're in a minus because actually the decision is in our own hands

Definitely, you can't blame anyone on what is happening in your portfolio because the decisions are made by you. For now, if you are holding solid alts, what you can do is just sit back and observe the market, selling would only give you losses. So if you have no urgent financial needs, hold on and wait for the market to recover.

In times of uncertainty, if you don't have a plan or a goal, you have a hard time. In me, investments should be made according to certain goals or according to certain strategies. If you plan your investments this way, you'll have less stress on reaching your goals. If you're hodling, you'll continue to hodl, and if you're trading, you'll continue to trade. you will be sure of yourself.

a very common thing to do when the market is like it is today is to hold out until the market recovers and this we can do if there is a big opportunity in our assets that gives a 75% guarantee to return but if the assets we have have no potential it is possible to sell them is a better thing to suppress greater loss or before it becomes ashes

When you do have that sufficient experience in the market then this is something that you could really know on what you should gonna do with your investment on which you will really be holding and never intent to
have some panic selling kind of action which is something that really could be done by most experienced people but not for newbies or just new into this unpredictable market.It couldnt really be avoided
to have those kind of negative thoughts since we are just humans and once we do see our portfolio is dropping or having that deep negatives then it couldnt really be
avoided to have those kind of thoughts in mind.

What would you do in uncertain times?

If you didn't sell before at this point the smarter thing to do is hodling until the market recovers again. Maybe it'll take a few months, maybe more than one year, but it's gonna happen. I never understood those people who don't sell when bitcoin goes up and then, when it starts going down, they get scared and even sell losing money.

Assuming I don’t have all my bitcoins in one position, I’d hold it. Of course I would calculate the risk before investing in the first hand. If I can’t handle the risk of that asset, it’s not the right time for me to invest in it. Simple.

If you follow Kitco on YouTube you would know many of the experts outside crypto ( people with 30 and 40+ years of experience in financial investments ) are going back to Gold and Silver. Gold especially, is not only uncorrelated to Bitcoin and Stocks, but also known to do well when Bitcoin is doing badly, so that makes it a good alternative for the bear market. During a Bitcoin bull run, Gold has no chance, but who knows when that will start again, maybe late 2024.

You may have some point in what said about Gold is not correlated with Bitcoin but what you don't understand is that every asset correlates at some point.
Having said that, I believe you're making the exact mistake some people made during the bearish market which is the time you invest in something like Bitcoin not that you invest in something somehow stable in price like Gold this is what most crypto millionaires did

I know it's an unpopular opinion, but I sold *almost* everything into PAX Gold at 30K. Prior to that, I had sold a big chunk of my portfolio into BNB, one of the biggest, safest bets in crypto. I moved it all into Gold when I saw Binance drop 15, 16 and nearly 20% per day. Gold will never 2x or 3x, but it will not drop 20 or 30% in a day either. I thought of moving to stable coins, with UST and Tether in trouble, I can't think of a worse time to go the stable coin route.

Gold is known to be stable but not the same as a literal stable coin that rarely moves but I think that gold can easily times 2 of its price whenever the market is in good condition but 3x and above can be a little harder for a much stable asset like gold. Drops are also rare in gold (obviously) but when it do, I still don't think it can drop 30 percent as that can be too much already for it.

Good thing that you didn't invest in ust because it has an ongoing issue right now but other stable coins like tether are I think still fine. If you want a more safer stable coins then why not try busd? There is also dai which is decentralized. I rarely seen an issue with these two.
