I do not even dream about the price of $500-600 yet, but if after hardfork the price goes up and reaches $300 by the end of January, then I will again have hope for approaching the former heights
It's one of my dream to see Ethereum goes to $500-$600 again.
I'm ready to start selling by that time and I think it will be followed by a dump.
And when it dumps, I'll simply re-buy and take the profits with me.
Actually, I understand the situation you are talking about, but since for me today cryptocurrency is the only source of income, Im worried about another dump after a certain increase in prices for cryptocurrency. Anyone who is afraid of losing will sell very actively and provoke another crisis of the cryptocurrency market.
You should expand your source of income and broad it with other sources.
I admire people like you who are dependent with crypto profits.
Just apply the traders and investors mindset and you'll be able to survive.
