In general, today the market drop and ETH drop are around 7%, of course not because of the merge process that has been completed for almost a month but because of the bearish market, it is impossible for Eth to run alone while the market is dropping, all we do is only patient and buy again when the price is cheap .
agreed with this one, the market isn't getting better meanwhile eth trying to breakthrough meaning it's going against the current and as a result it's instead losing its value almost immediately, I think as you said, it could go against the bearish, meaning eth isn't that strong.
Making decisions against the tide is definitely risky but to be honest I'm not too worried about Ethereum,
the market is also still in bearish condition and we don't know when the market will rise,
let's see how Ethereum will develop in the future
If you can risk Holding ? then there will be no problem at all mate because this si how the market must go , but the problem here if you are in need , I mean all of a sudden there is a badly need for funds and you have to cash out then nothing you can do but to sell out.
