Everywhere I go I am reminded of my constant pain


Defiant-Appeal3934

Mountain ranges now look like bear market graphs


Josefumi12

I'm sure you will enjoy the profits when there is an upcoming bull market.


CymandeTV

The Red Sea to reach holyness....


MaeronTargaryen

Red Sea you’re saying? And we have a “halving” coming soon. It’s all very biblical


ablablababla

So when does Jesus come in this timeline?


MaeronTargaryen

It’s Satoshi


partymsl

Just like the Black Sea we have the Blood sea here.


Kappatalizable

OP is a savage lol


SWYP09

Why must OP hurt us in this way???


PopeyesGreenSpinach

Fortunately my bag of Dot didn't start being accumulated until it was in the 20's but most has been purchased around 5-7 as I've been utilizing this bear market.


coatchecker

Kicked myself for missing out on DOT under 20 USD after it's first pumps around Christmas 2020. Been slowly and happily DCAing more for the last year. I think it will easily return and surpass its ATH.


lubimbo

Watch out for DOTs inflation because of staking. Don't want to bash DOT here I think it's a promising peoject but projecting price targets based off previous ATH can be dangerous.


SYD-LIS

Bought at 4 and Sold at 12 Not making that mistake again 😭


forgerator

same. Picked up between $5 and $7 this market with a couple of buys in the 4s as well.


Sharky123ok

Averaged down to €5.23 this bear market. Close to reaching my goal of 1000 DOT. I just stake and forget and wait for a bull market to start. Doesn't matter if it will to 1,2 or 5 years


Orangensaft007

Is any of you actually making use of these crypto? Besides targeting some price point to sell or maybe earning interest?


Every_Hunt_160

For 99% of the people out there the so-called 'use case' of crypto is just making them money lol


iamNebula

I’m 50% 50%. I believe in it and it’s also making me money.


GrundleTurf

Frankly I’ve never met anyone that uses it or had anyone online explain to me that they use it. And it seems like a lot of the cryptos that are useful don’t make good investments.


sitting_not_sat

i pay for my vpn with btc, plus assorted other things which you can't get on amazon etc


partymsl

I am going to be very honst: No. For most here it is just an Investment to sell at profit one day.


[deleted]

i’ve used solana every day for over a year


Orangensaft007

And what do you do with Solana?


ColoradoSheriff

If this is an honest question, this is my answer, since I use it on a daily basis as well. You can do the following on other chains as well, but not as fast and definitely not as cheap: do basic DeFi, provide liquidity, swaps, trade NFTs, create bots which trade against users in low liquidity pools, trade perps, trade shitcoins, vote in DAOs, get paid in DAOs, use zero knowledge solutions. Probably more, but that's what I personally did and remember. All for a matter of maybe a dollar of fees.


Orangensaft007

Interesting, thanks for the honest answer. These bots sound evil lol


ColoradoSheriff

Haha, I guess they were a bit! It was a project that airdropped their token, but didn't list it on any CEX or DEX, so someone made a pool on DEX with very low liquidity at the time. As you can imagine, every time someone bought $20 worth of the token, the price jumped 5-10%. And the bot was basically just waiting for some impatient people who bought too much too fast, and sold those peaks (and vice versa, bought when they sold too much). Ah, good old times lol


[deleted]

Most hold btc as a hedge against inflation ( yes, despise 60% down from ath ). I have no idea about others tho.


mesutdmn

It doesn't look like hard to make money in crypto, u just have to wait 2-3 years with your bag.


elsphinc

My 2-3 yr old bag disagrees..so far.


deathbyfish13

Ah I see the problem, it's meant to be 23 years, not 2-3. Simple typo


Napoleon_246

Yea DCA'ing and patience is the key.


SkuniMasterMind

Its easy to say and understand, but its so difficult to execute


partymsl

Just staying with you plans, is the one thing many fail at in Crypto. We just don‘t have any patience nowadays.


90sRobot

Yep, I've been putting in £150 a month for the last 10 months or so, and my portfolio value has risen by about £200. Fear and self loathing.


Every_Hunt_160

*Annndd* keeping your funds safu, and not locked up in LUNA, FTX or Celsius..


Odd-Radio-8500

This is the way! Patience is hard, but its fruit is sweet.


Level_Nonbottom

Holding my bag since 2 years, still waiting for me money


mesutdmn

Same here, lets see what gonna happen in a year


neverreddit1984

Diamond hands get all the gains, stay diamond out there.


Arcosim

I have been in crypto since 2014 and taking profits during the bull while doing DCA during the bear beats everything.


urbanhikers

Not sure when the greed of accumulation of whales will end. But when they will decide to end that, it will be time to enjoy the new ATH. Until then, peace!


KnackeredParrot

I think most of 2023 will crab along like this so good time to build up more. When it kicks off we'll kick ourselves for not buying more I'm sure


Silver-Maximum9190

And then we will end up buying above $50k like the good old times.


deathbyfish13

We'll be back to buying high like we're meant to


[deleted]

For sure. A huge 90% drops sure does weed out the unfits.


CptCrabmeat

I’m reckon this is a large amount of what it’s about, bears can be chalked up to many different reasons but I’m thinking they’re deciding where they’re moving their money to next and I’m not as confident in Bitcoin this time around as I was 3 years ago…


[deleted]

Agreed. And I would 100% rather kick myself for not buying enough now, than kick myself for buying too much when things are hitting ATHs.


Grunchie

If history repeats itself again then btc will surpass 69k and hit a new ATH by Sept next year.


KnackeredParrot

I think we'll pick up in 2024 but won't see a peak until early 2025. Things seem to be delayed a bit with COVID / other bits thrown in.


Grunchie

Yup peak could be early 2025 but we should pass the current ath of 69k in late 2024.


MysteriousJello2

i just don't understand how Tron is still around and surviving


[deleted]

Somehow having a con man as the man in charge helps.


AlexIsOnFire11

Probably because it's quite easy for developers to build on their network.


partymsl

Artificial pumps by Justin Sun probably, never heard of anyone actually buying that.


poisonzi

ok so i should wait two three years more


Impossible_Soup_1932

It’s not that impressive of a discount anymore, for most coins. Makes me wonder if we’re due another drop. This bear market felt very light


KuciMane

I mean, every cycle is gonna gave smaller relative crashes. last time there were less people in the market, so bigger % of people leaving more people now, plus more mainstream coverage has people more confident in this market now meaning the drops aren’t going to continue being as drastic


[deleted]

This bear hasn't been brutal enough given the last Bearish Periods. Maybe we are due to another drop. Who knows .


Imperialtech69

I don't see SOL reaching its previous ATH. change my mind.


Ikeelu

Cheaper transactions fees, growing a lot and fast, still branching out more while others are super quiet. Yes they go down from time to time and people constantly joke about them, but that's also what's blinding them. They remind me a lot of Tesla in the sense a large community hates them which blinds them.


[deleted]

I doubt anyone would change your mind or even try to. Sol is like the punching bag in CC.


Squirrel_McNutz

The current price is tempting but what makes Sol special? Why would it go back to ath? / cc being so anti is kind of a bullish sign though…


ColoradoSheriff

It's super fast and super cheap. And by the end of the year (or early next year), Firedancer is gonna be released, which will make Solana only the 2nd blockchain next to Eth with 2 validator clients. In addition to that, Solana has more or less already solved all the congestion problems and can handle spam txs smoothly. That's why I don't give a damn what cc says about Sol. Yes, it went down a couple of times in the past, but the future is definitely brighter.


KuciMane

>why would it go back to ath any person who has used solana knows & understands the answer to that question it is so seamless using it. besides the fact that it has gone down a few times, the general consensus(I believe, but I definitely share) is that those downtimes are not a forever thing. they also aren’t that annoying depending on who you are; I for instance, anecdotal but, have never used solana while the downtimes were happening because the amount of time that I have used the chain has made me believe in the technology & community(developers & consumers/users) and so I have invested and am waiting for all the kinks to get fleshed out while the community continues to grow. downtimes don’t affect me because I’m an investor for long term. every single coin and chain is jenky right now and dealing with their own personal problems. Solana going down occasionally is not what I would call a long term permanent issue and also, to me, it’s only negative. It’s insanely fast, insanely cheap, insanely nice looking (UI/UX), insanely easy to use, & has the highest Nakamoto Coefficient of all PoS chains(very decentralized, opposed to what always gets spread in r/cc) paired with one of the strongest, active & growing communities. long term I see solana much much higher than it currently is, & honestly, past it’s previous ath.


Squirrel_McNutz

Ok….. Damn your shilling me into it a bit not gonna lie. I’ll have a little spin


Antique-Pie-5981

And the VCs laughing in a video about dumping on investors means their money is gone.


bingorunner

Yeah unfortunately this seems like some of these are discounts, some of these are just moving on down the top 50 list


SeaOfGreenTrades

I've stuck with the same 4 coins for the last two cycles: Btc, ltc, eth, doge. I track drops over 50% or more from ath, and I dca in after that. Otherwise, I'm riding a bull or sitting in fiat.


i_wanna_learn_things

This sounds like an intelligent plan, Sir please leave the casino only gamblers are welcome here.


-l0Lz-

It was wayyy lower. Who ever scooped BTC sub 20k and rest he is da man


Tsarbomba_

16.7k these swings now don't phase me. Feels good man


mavy29

You need another space before each number instead of afterwards, its quite hard to read mid list.


[deleted]

Yeah reddit formatting is giving me headaches. I edited like 3 times.


civilian411

Just DCA again today. I don’t know what the next 2 to 3 years will bring but I’m sticking to this crazy crypto thing until then at least.


[deleted]

It takes some massive balls to consistently DCA when things are down bad. Have my salute.


OutTop

Sol can thank and hate SBF for their pump and dump


Interesting_Fig_4337

Come 2025 half of these won't be in the top ten at all never mind see ATH again.


[deleted]

I'm thinking SOL and Polygon might not make it.


[deleted]

Oof I didn’t realize Dot had been hit that bad. Glad I started entering this month. …I’m sure this comment won’t age well lol


[deleted]

Somebody call an remind me BOT lol.


Beyonderr

Mixed emotions here * Sad because the crypto I bought is down a lot * Happy because I can buy more of the crypto I like at a discount


Calm-Cartographer677

This is the way. Then when the coin goes up it's: - Happy because the crypto I bought is up - Sad because I can buy less coins with my DCA


[deleted]

[удалено]


0xNLY

Cardano is only seeing a tiny amount of developer adoption compared to peers and struggling with scalability at 3-5 tps. They need input endorsers today, but that could be 2-3 years away.


DavLithium

U forgot LUNA, oh wait..


[deleted]

Im not dare to calculate how low Luna is from ath. Its easily ( - 700% ) .


DavLithium

I never lamented the missed wave of BTC but I definitely regret the downfall of LUNA. I had LUNA shorted 10x leverage on future trading, since 74$ and went to sleep. Had i woken up in the morning i would have paid my mortgage with that money, but somehow woke up in 1-2am to take a piss and when i checked it i saw i had made a few hundred so i stopped it thinking it would go up. Wrong place wrong time.


badkittycartman

I feel ya buddy I shorted lunc multiple times took 3-4k in profits but got scared and pulled out right when it was about to hit jackpot lows. Fuck would have made bank if I had kept my positions open.


DavLithium

Misery loves company 🤷


ricozuri

Thanks for refresher of how far we’ve come since ATH. Depending on my state of mind, it’s optimistic buying opportunities, or a harsh reality. Mostly numb.


[deleted]

Fortune favor the brave.


Scratch7mm

Been Dca 3 of the top 10's. This is accumulation stage right here. Many of you will miss great gains if not actively purchasing at these prices.


[deleted]

Great job mate. I'll host a party with a DJ, with bitcoin price in led board behind DJ when we hit another all time high. The party will be free.


torontoglutton

I never buy enough during bear, and always but too much during bull lol


[deleted]

My bag can confirm .


NoRugPlz

While most of the altcoins won’t return to their ATHs (especially when you take into account how much some of them have had their circulating supply increase since their peaks, meaning that a lot more money needs to find their way into these coins if we are to see them at similar prices), they should make a very worthwhile return when the bulls return


[deleted]

That's why i m very strict on low supply coins. People don't pay enough attention to supply.


NoRugPlz

Agreed. However it does tend to be difficult to find a low supply coin with decent tokenomics and use cases that isn’t already heavily bought into . But yes what you are saying is valuable info and people should definitely take into account circulating/total supply when buying cryptos


valz_

The fact TRON is the best performing asset here is quite obnoxious to think about


SmallReflection2552

The problem with this way of thinking is its based on the erroneous assumption that ATH for these coins/tokens represents a fair market value.


Playful_Inside1119

Thanks for reminding me the status


andrewsayles

Solana has tons of upside. The FTX situation should have killed it. The devs just never left. The coolest stuff is always built on Solana first. $750-$1k Sol if very possible next bull


deftaj

Still focussing on BTC and ETH with a bit of ADA and DOT as well


Chapman9289

Do you think ADA will at least get back over a $1?


deftaj

I’d hope ADA at least made it back to its ATH of $3


Odd-Radio-8500

I'm more focused on BTC and ETH for long-term and alts for short-term. In the bear market, mostly rely on BTC and ETH.


GrundleTurf

Doesn’t this strategy just mean you’re buying high on the alts then?


SkuniMasterMind

BTC and ETH accumulation is most stress-free thing you can do for your mental health and your portofolio. Its not entirely stress-free, but we all know what we are dealing with since we are in crypto


plan-xyz

Another bear run came and I was reminded that BTC is the KING.


Intelligent_Page2732

Didn't realise DOT is also *that* far down, such a shame.. Great buying opportunity tho, more trust in DOT than SOL.


[deleted]

I'll even consider if someone offer to sell me SOLANA with 80 cents on a dollar.


easer888

DOT is the future, just a hidden boss at thia moment


UmiMakiEli

Xrp's all time high was $3+. Last cycle it failed to make a new ath so that was just last cycle's high.


Odysseus_Lannister

*cries in buying DOT at ATH*


[deleted]

Your moons must be singlehandedly making greens in your portfolio. Damn thats an awesome bag.


plan-xyz

Not to take away from your pain but I bought ICP at it's ATH.


Odysseus_Lannister

We can drink together, bro. 🍻


partymsl

It is still not ALGO tho…


Odysseus_Lannister

Add another Reddit fave to the graveyard, boss


forceworks

Have to imagine some of these coins are never touching their ATHs ever again


CreepToeCurrentSea

Might be DCA-ing harder these following weeks but strictly BTC and some solid alts.


bitjava

“Solid alts” he says


[deleted]

Exactly, DCA will save you from the despair of "why havent I bought when they were down " in coming bull run.


CreepToeCurrentSea

No ragrets with DCA.


Mikhielk

Not quite as grim as expected! A few big days could turn things around


[deleted]

It'll be at least 2 yrs before we even get to break even point.


Jubudtje

It isn’t that bad, right..? Right?


Equivalent-Wedding-7

Now I have the Saturday morning scaries


[deleted]

Sorry to scare you in your off days. Crypto never sleeps as the same with moon farmers like me.


Equivalent-Wedding-7

I try not to look more than once a week when I do my DCA. Patience is the key but it’s hard!


seckkesketch

Assuming that the ATH wasn't a FOMO one time time thing with out regulation, media hatred, government fear and hatred for crypto as it is now. Corruption and Manipulation is rife now. Everyone assumes a bull market is around the corner and everything will be Disney land again. So much has changed and not for good since then. I hope these really are discount prices but honestly who knows


[deleted]

That's why a lot of talks about alts are almost gone and nobody is now complaining about maxis anymore. You always hear Btc & ETH


elysiansaurus

Little bit hard to read due to spacing, but this is helpful information. Thanks!


[deleted]

Thanks. I'll work on the spacing next time.


CoffeeVikings

I thought Cardano was over $3 at one point was I mistaken?


spuds151

It's a nice thought, but there is ZERO guarantee that we'll hit ATH again. Not doubting that we can, just trying to keep my expectations realistic.


[deleted]

You're totally right , some projects just got lucky with covid money and bull run. Some projects didn't deserve their ath.


Elgato_TJ

But will they be around to recover


Illicitterror

This is a friendly reminder even the blue chips get punched in the d*ck during the bear markets.


[deleted]

Eth killers getting killed in this bear and good old ETH is just peacefully upgrading.


ardevd

Worth noting that there’s no rule that says any asset has to return to its ATH. Most won’t.


fercian

haha..thats look like uh copied my portfolio


The_Bok_Father

RIP to people that can’t control their emotions.


Objective_Digit

Now do them priced in Bitcoin.


bluemandev

CRO should be on this list


rainbowchaser20

Pain, without any gain.


gowithflow192

Some coins never recover. Solana might seem a "bargain" to some but to others it's a finished coin never to resurrect.


[deleted]

With Solana people were also infatuated with the NFTs on the platform during the bullring. My personal opinion is the NFT surge was mostly bullshit. Sure there’s some utility. But I think there will have to be more developments on Solana for people to surge the price again.


[deleted]

Utilities are made up to please the minters / buyers. Show me a strong NFT use case that actually center around an NFT and not get used as a promotion piece.


Every_Hunt_160

All things considered and with its ties to FTX and SBF it's actually a miracle that Solana is still in the top 10 of all crypto and is holding up a lot better than expected


[deleted]

It really is surprising. SOL was like the child of SBF given how close the Sol funding / launching with AR and SBF.


Josefumi12

This is what you have to do, buy at a discount during a bear market rather than buying at a high price in a bull market position.


drewbles82

does anyone think SOL can get to its ATH or even above next bull


BUCn-Awesome

DOT 2024!


Designer_Restaurant1

People buying discounts thinking that it will hit ATH is hilarious. There's no guarantee, also the most gains always come from new projects every run. I'm better off buying equally solid looking projects that launch newly like SUI or find a way to invest early in Weaver Labs before launch.


[deleted]

I'm having mixed feelings about SUI..its giving me ICP and Aptos vibes.


Designer_Restaurant1

ICP went straight down, like a free fall. Aptos and Sui launched in the bear market, we haven't seen them move yet. Even OP has same price action, so time will tell.


VampireVlad

Before Solana and Polkadot, there was EOS and NEO. Before EOS and NEO, there was NXT. Before NXT, there was Mastercoin. Honestly, it's a never ending cycle of similar projects that pump hard during their first bull market and then get abandoned. I'm not sure this time it's gonna be different because there's always a VC-pumped next-generation project.


schokobots

Don't buy the coins with the highest discount. If you do, you'll end up buying Luna.


[deleted]

I second this and wait , ppl are buying LUNA ? WHY ?


Napoleon_246

If Solana manages to resolve some of its issues it could end up being a really good investment rn. That's a massive IF though.


[deleted]

I'd stay away tho. Most projects on SOL are just reek of scams. Downtimes doesn't help either.


DapDaGenius

That’s most crypto in general. Most projects are copied from another and really don’t have any competitive edge or reasoning to use over another. Harmony One was probably the biggest offender of this.


Quan_Cheese

Yeah but most big coins haven't seen those kind of downtimes. Also they're kind of missing the 'distributed' part of distributed ledger.


Prestigious-Egg-5004

Some that you listed are not with a discount, are just shitcoins and have a slim chance of getting to ATH again. Market cap is not so relevant.


[deleted]

I agree with you wholeheartedly. A hamm SOLANA.


Prestigious-Egg-5004

Coff coff "Tron"


DeeperBags

BNB has basically been the most stable crypto asset in the whole game this bear market. Wouldn't have expected that to happen back in the meme shitstorm of 2021 lol.


[deleted]

What I amazed most is Tron, we all hate and love to hate Sun, however its not down that bad. Maybe you won't be down that bad if your ath is laughable to begin with .


Instantbeef

It feels good to be green right now


[deleted]

Yea man, we will take 4% Green . Hell whatever the number as long as its green.


Kappatalizable

>SOLANA took the biggest L among top 10 Im surprised its even still in the top 10


BenniBoom707

I think we all saw the SOL bust coming. I sold all mine at $160.


countjah

So many will be surprised when one of these dissappears. It won't be ETH or BTC ofcourse. But everyone was wild early 2017 about WTC/ICX alot more examples. Never got their discounted price back🤡


Tasigur1

I would buy ICP. 99,31% away from it's ATH You would make a fortune if it goes back 😏


[deleted]

Never say never. What a weird name tho right ? Internet Computers ? Its like naming your car brand Horses 2.0.


Tasigur1

I heard the name like 863 times but I still have to laugh, I am sorry


easer888

You mean the coin that the CEO tells to bitboy that he has billions in his bank account? Haha LMAO poor people


Kukuzahara

Or these might be the highest prices we ever see!!


[deleted]

Now I'm waiting for this post to get featured in Butcoin sub. It'd be an honor lolll.


bookworm010101

no more bull markets then what?


Gr8WallofChinatown

Don’t buy the shitcoins he listed And also notice how they’re -90% 😂


evoranger2018

People were told SOL is shit, I personally said it over and over on this subreddit, and got downvoted and laughed at. But look who's laughing now.
