Everyone decides for himself what he wants to get from cryptocurrencies. I don't think cryptocurrencies are entirely risk-based. If you invest in the long term, you are more likely to make a profit.
The main people that make the big profits are the hodles because they wait for the prices to move more for better incomes and the more time the wait the more prices will change so it is better to wait and hodle.
Yeah those who waits get better result for their patience at the end, holders hold as they know risk taking is important because price is low but if we will buy and wait for long time it will increase itself, so I am sure price will be high very soon and after few months only we will see market has recovered and prices now normal to sell out, I took risk and now I feel blessed for it.
