Well, altcoins take about 30-40% of my portfolio, so I felt it pretty hard, and BTC fell too. But I'm not selling anything, I strongly believe in my portfolio. Bought some more while I could, so I guess in long term I might be winning.
The entire cryptocurrency market fell significantly because of that FTX ugly event and not only alternative cryptocurrency bitcoin indeed slip dipper in it price even though the price dropping started long before the bankruptcy note that cost much fuds in the market and led to a 20%-40% drop in some coins even some coins dropped to zero in the face of the crisis that lasted for almost 2 to three weeks and beyond to this point.
In general, my portfolio was affected a lot and I lost about 70-80% of the value of the altcoin that I keep in my portfolio. I only keep altcoin for speculation and do not hold it in the long term, but I could not get rid of it in time before the prices fell.
70% to 80% is a big loss but since there is already a recovery sign then it will take some time and you just need to wait out the time, bitcoin most especially have been showing some level of uptrend moves but the market forces always pull the price back each time it attempts to break the present level. And it also good that you took advantage of the present condition to restock your portfolio with new buying since this is the best time to buy.

Good move most especially if you portfolio consist more of bitcoin you can be confident to hold for long and wait for it market to recover because it will definitely recover at some points, but the truth is, some altcoins may not fully recover so if your portfolio consists of such coins you may have to prepare for a long wait than regular because it will take a significant pump to get them back on track but all the same its good you said you already make up your mind to wait.
