👉 People Keep Asking What Happened In This Bear Phase And Honestly Most Didn’t Even Notice
Most people only look at price, becuase that’s the easiest thing to see.
What really mattered in this bear phase was who actually lost coins and who just sat through the pain without being forced out.
Look at the holders.
Big holders like MicroStrategy didn’t reduce exposure during weakness. No borrowing, no rush, no panic. While sentiment was bad, they kept adding, pushing holdings above 200,000+ BTC. On paper it looked bad, but in reality they owned more BTC then before.
Same with Tether. Instead of cutting risk during fear, they added BTC to reserves and held through the drawdown. No leverage, no liquidation pressure.
That’s smart hands.
Now look at leverage-focused money.
Take Trend Research. They play with billions and still, becuase they used borrowing and leverage, they ended up taking a huge realized loss when price moved against them.
Not a paper loss.
Real money gone.
Pause and think.
If a fund managing billions can lose like this using leverage, what makes retail traders believe $1,000 becomes $1,000,000 or a $100 to $1M challange is realistic? Some influencer opening a challange doesn’t change math 😭.
I’ll be honest. I’m around $2,500 in unrealized loss, almost 60% down, and I still haven’t moved a single coin. No leverage. No liquidation price. Time is still on my side.
+$1 → “I am god of traders”
-$1 → “market is scam”
That mindset doesn’t survive cycles.
This bear phase wasn’t about prediction.
It was about who could stay in the game.
Leverage broke.
Weak hands exited.
Smart hands stayed.
Keep thinking...😼
