"It always goes back up"
Bullshit.
To be fair, I don't think this statement is being used that much with altcoins though, mostly just with bitcoin. Though bitcoin is never guaranteed to "go back up", if there's a coin in the cryptocurrency space that's most likely to go up, it's definitely bitcoin. But of course, as always, risk control.
Those who think that shitcoins will "always go back up" are simply delusional.
