A wave of growth will be necessary, there is no doubt. You just never know when it will happen. I think that everyone is just tired of waiting and it contributes to the negative mood in people. But all must be well, we must not lose hope.
I do not think that there is a negative atmosphere in the crypto world today. Those who pursue a HODL strategy wait for the right moment knowing that the market will grow in any case. The rest do not wait for anything. They left crypto.
