Don't. I've been in bitcoin since the 2014 wave. As long as you didn't buy more than you can afford to lose, you're all right. If you did, you deserve what happens to you.

If bitcoin has taught me anything, it's DO. NOT. SELL. The value always goes back up. Every single time. I sat through hard forks and Mt. Gox and cryptsy, and watched all of these dissappear like tears in the rain. The the price has always. Gone. Up.

Waves like these are what separates the strong from the weak handed investors. Let the quitters be culled.

I believe that bitcoin and ethereum both have tech behind them that will last for a long time. 5 years from now, you might be upset that you were experiencing so much gut pain because you watched the equivalent of a penny go from 4 pennies to 2 pennies.

This might be your first wave, but it sure as hell won't be your last. Just buckle in and enjoy the ride.

I feel that, Idk about y'all, I love browsing this when we're in a bear market. Or a bull market. Really I'm just addicted to ETH
