I have said a couple of times that I am not actively involved in the bull-run (trading wise). On the contrary, I am earning and staking. This is what I am comfortable with currently. Well, most people are making gains from their trade. I am standing by the corner and watching how everything unfolds. And to be frank, it is fun to watch.

I am a product of a bear-run. I got into crypto at the end of a bull-run. When people spoke about the bull-run I often thought about it as a myth or a past event that would never occur again but here it is, happening right under my nose and I am ill-prepared.

I have been having trouble sleeping, so I stay up at night watching TikTok videos (fortunately for me my feeds are tailored towards self-growth content because that's all I watch on TikTok). Scrolling o through my feeds I stumbled upon this video from a supposed expert trader offering tips and signals.

Now I was tempted to buy into the hype. You would have thought that with my years in the crypto industry I should know better than to fall for such crap (I do), but it's the bull-run. Anything can happen. I just have to be right once. That's all it takes right?

So I am going to buy a bunch of coins because a guy from TikTok said so without any logical reason?

FOMO

I have missed out on some massive gains this year and I probably am going to miss out on more. The projects I am betting on are not doing so great in the market right now. So there is the temptation of opting for the fast route. Everyone is doing it, right? It is the crypto market and there is a lot of dumb money. How do I miss out on dumb money?

Following fundamentals.

One of the many things I have told myself is that I want my investment to reflect my ideologies. That's a weird thing to think about. Most people just want to make a profit. Well, in my case I want my time and money to be put into something I believe.

I believe in hive. I believe in leofinance. I believe in what the hive blockchain stands for. It is not perfect but it is workable. Although the price of the token isn't making crazy moves now (leo just did), I believe that is subject to change. All I need do is be patient.

Patience seems inappropriate for a bull market given how fast things move. However, it is probably the only thing stopping one from getting rekted. So I am going to be patient with the projects I believe in like leo and hive.

How are you holding up during this bull market? Share with me in the comment section.
