Understanding the Cryptocurrency Investor Mindset

Investor reactions to market corrections change, but often follow a predictable pattern:

• In 2017 (35% correction): Investors thought, “Why sell? It’s obvious the market is going to explode after this drop.”

• In 2021 (30% correction): Looking back, many thought, “If I had understood how promising the market was, I wouldn’t have sold. These corrections were just manipulations before a big run.”

• In 2025 (17% correction): Today, the mood is much more pessimistic: “It’s over, all is lost, the market doesn’t work like it used to.”
