Note: This is an educational perspective – not investment advice
✅ 1. Price drop = lower participation cost
• When BTC drops, the risk of 'buying the top' is lower compared to the FOMO phase.
• Newcomers have the opportunity to start with a small capital while still accumulating a relatively good amount of BTC.
✅ 2. The market cycle always has a correction phase
Bitcoin's history shows:
• After each strong increase → deep drop → accumulation → rise again.
• The downtrend phase is often when 'weak hands' leave the market, while long-term investors start accumulating.
✅ 3. On-chain activity often shows signs of a bottom zone
Some on-chain signals are often considered positive when BTC decreases:
• Low MVRV → average investors are at a loss, close to the 'value' price zone.
• The number of small wallets (retail) is increasing → new investors are accumulating.
• Hashrate remains strong → Bitcoin network stable, miners not panicking.
✅ 4. Market fear psychology = opportunity
The Fear & Greed index often falls to extremely low levels when BTC decreases.
In the past, strong Fear zones often coincided with discounted price periods.
✅ 5. The atmosphere is less FOMO, easier to learn – easier to observe
When the market is quiet:
• Newcomers have time to learn without fear of being swept up in a hot rally.
• Easier to practice discipline (DCA, capital allocation, risk management…).
✅ 6. DCA becomes attractive
During the price decline phase:
• The DCA method helps neutralize risk and accumulate BTC over time.
• Newcomers don’t need to catch the bottom but still have a reasonable long-term strategy.
General advice for newcomers:
• Focus on knowledge, risk management, do not use leverage.
• View BTC as a long-term accumulation, not 'quick in, quick out'.
• Only invest money you can afford to lose.
