It's perfect to be patient but where you channel your patience to is very vital, I mean, what kind of crypto assets you purchase and then begin to exercise patient in, so many newly traders buying meme coins that has no utility and use cases and practice been patient in something that keeps depreciating through out the rest of the market till they get delisting on whatever exchange they were.

So in general, a trader has to be patient in very volatile assets that is sure to show appreciation over time and not in a useless token that can't bring forth fruits.
