The community shares a game plan for the bear market
Crypto-newcomers are uneasy about deciding on the next move as the market becomes unpredictable. Because of this, members of the crypto community handed out their advice to those who were trying to navigate through the cold crypto winter.
In a Twitter thread, nonfungible token (NFT) collects and trades Krissyos highlighted the importance of having a survival mindset during this time. According to the NFT collector, cryptocurrencies and NFTs will “soar in the future.” However, Krissyos believes that many current projects will have to fail.
Because of this, the trader noted that the top priority must be to determine one’s risk tolerance, or the amount you are willing to lose, and the average dollar cost, which “limits your potential upside to reduce possible losses.”
Bobby Ong, co-founder of the coin information site CoinGecko, divided that finding new potential projects and trying them out is one of his favorite hobbies. Ong quoted a tweet with a list of upcoming projects and wrote that getting in early is often rewarding.
For long-term Bitcoin (BTC) and Ether (ETH) holders, Ong said that multi-year market fluctuations will not make much of a difference. Ong advised this type of merchants to spend quality time with friends, family and themselves.
3 / If you are a long-term BTC / ETH holder, multi-year market fluctuations will not make any difference, so spend quality time on yourself, family and friends. Go for a jog, bike, go for a walk. Improve yourself technically and socially. Spend time with family. The market will still be here.

On Reddit, user Kuzkokronk stressed the importance of buying Bitcoin during this time. According to them, if community members do not buy BTC at this time, they will regret it “5 years from now.”
