Why Are So Many People Selling Their Coins? Here's the Truth

Most traders are panic-selling just because prices are dipping. When asked why, they often respond, “It’s dropping, so I sold” but that’s fear talking, not strategy.

Right now, global tensions—like conflicts between Iran–Israel, Lebanon, and even Pakistan–India—are fueling uncertainty. This fear trickles into the market, causing small investors to react emotionally.

But here’s what most don’t realize: large players (aka “whales”) sometimes intentionally sell off assets to trigger a price drop. This creates panic. Retail investors sell out in fear, and once prices fall enough—those same whales buy back in cheap.

It’s a classic shakeout. Whales win. Small traders lose.

So before you rush to sell, remember: markets go through cycles. A dip doesn’t mean doom. Many coins still have strong fundamentals and could climb to new All-Time Highs (ATHs).

Stay focused. Be patient. And don’t let short-term fear steal your long-term gains.
