The scariest thing lately isn't the drop, but the market depth suddenly becoming as thin as paper, with orders being canceled and slippage flying everywhere. When liquidity dries up, thinking about "buying the dip and doubling up" is basically just risking destroying yourself first: lower leverage, cut positions smaller, set tighter stop-losses, better to earn less than get pierced by a single needle.
In the community these days, there's a lot of arguing about privacy coins/mixing coins and compliance boundaries. I see it as quite divided, but for me, the impact is more practical: as soon as there's any rumor, liquidity immediately flees, and the trading experience becomes downright disgusting. Anyway, I just treat it as patching myself up—small fixes are enough. I don't chase perfect strategies; surviving first, then talk about "low points."
