This is FEAR and GREED.
Today we will talk about fears.
In my short time in crypto, I have already heard/read about many fears.
One of the biggest scare stories is the threat to cryptographic security $BTC due to quantum computing.
No less frightening is the end of the 4-year cycle. It is believed that traditional Bitcoin cycles will not occur and 2026 will be weak due to changes in global liquidity.
The next - the collapse of the artificial intelligence bubble, which will pull down all risky assets.
Of course, the influence of geopolitics. Wars, conflicts, tariffs, and even the speeches of the US president are causing capital to flee to gold, while the crypto market remains unsupported.
Dependence on institutions. Crypto has become part of the global financial system, so now it reacts sharply to the meetings #FOMS and outflows from ETFs. This is what we are currently observing.
Regulatory pressure. Although the rules are becoming clearer, the fear of new restrictions on anonymity and DeFi protocols remains relevant.
Loss of keys/seed phrase. The eternal fear of forever losing access to the wallet due to one's own carelessness.
Hacks and scams. The risk of exploiting smart contracts or falling victim to phishing. Although AI protection tools are becoming more effective, just the other day we faced a data leak.
FOMO. The fear of missing the next 'bull run' or the next gem that will shoot up against the backdrop of overall pessimism.
Did I forget anything? If I did, please add it in the comments. Share your fears. Although it's already hard to scare Ukrainians with anything.
My fears are not that global. Right now I only fear not guessing the asset I'm buying. Previously, I fell for all the scary stories I read.And to not be afraid and not look like this young lady, you need to build your strategy and stick to it.
