In cryptocurrency generally you only got what you deserve, we might complain of how bad or the terrible experience you have had during trading or holding the wrong asset, but in reality you only got what you deserve.
Look at those that have DCA into Bitcoin over the years, right now, they will still be in profit because that's what they deserve, you might decide to hold an alt and let go at the right time and come out profitable, because of the knowledge you have on how to navigate your way in the crypto space make it deserving.
You might decide to lose your money by holding shit coin, instead of Bitcoin because of your lack of knowledge in the crypto space.
If you still want to keep holding Bitcoin, which means you believe in it, so when the bull runs comes and you start reaping your rewards, you deserve it.
Because you were patience enough to hold the right currency which is Bitcoin.
As a newbie or experience trader, if you decide to do revenge trading, emotional trading or high leverage trading, and you lose everything, that's what you deserve, because you lack the knowledge and discipline required to know when to stop and when to continue.
In this space we all get what we deserve.
for beginners in crypto, keeping it simple and diversified can be a good strategy. I agree with you, because cryptocurrency, like every other form of investment, is largely about informed decision-making, experience and patience. 3 years ago, I started trading in small amounts but still regularly minimized risks associated with market volatility. Because we know the crypto market can plummet suddenly. If you have taken time to thoroughly research, practice patience and held on to reliable assets like Btc.
