Any advice from those who have been in crypto for a long time for those who are seeing this market for the first time?
Do not panic. The market price fluctuations are just normal because we are currently witnessing a bearish market scenario, and this will only be temporarily. If you want not to fall for losses, then do not sell your coins at a loss. Just stay calm and continue observing the market. Once the market falls for a deeper correction, always be smarter and take advantage to buy a lot of promising coins while the market allows you. Once the market turns into bullish, you can never do these things again.
Be used to it. The market will never stay up all the time, it will eventually go down too so expect that you'll be definitely riding in a roller coaster. Once you panic, you lose your control that may lead you making wrong decisions. So always be calm and never gets affected with the current market condition as its never going to lasts. And with this type of current market, its always a challenge to stay patient as its the only way you'll survive and will still be profitable when the market turns bullish.
