The "Buy the Dip" Trap That Nobody Talks About 📉🔁

When influencers say "just DCA" or "buy the dip" after a major collapse... pause for a second. Let’s break down the math behind those losses — because it’s not as simple as they make it seem.

The reality of recovery:

• 🔻 Lose 10% → You need +11% to break even

• 🔻 Lose 50% → You need +100% to break even

• 🔻 Lose 90% → You need +900% to break even

Let that sink in.

If you have a coin that fell 90%, now you need a 10x rebound just to get back to zero. No profit — just breaking even.

Now the mind games begin:

Just when your coin finally returns to your original entry, influencers and voices from CT start singing:

"Don’t sell yet. Diamond hands 💎✋!"

"This is just the beginning!"

But here’s the trick:

👉 Your break-even point is someone else's +900% profit.

Ask yourself:

If you were up 900% — would you take profits or keep holding and waiting?

The hidden trap:

Platforms and influencers often show losses from the top down (for example, "down 80% from ATH").

But the real pain comes when you zoom in and measure from the bottom up:

• $1INCH

• $ICP

• Countless others...

They didn’t just fall — they imploded. And recovery requires miracles, not just patience.

Final thought:

Buying the dip works in healthy trends — not in dying projects.

DCA works with fundamentally strong assets — not with coins that may never recover.

Before hitting "Buy", ask yourself:

Is this a temporary dip... or a long-term drop?

Think about risk-to-reward ratios — not just the price.

Because what looks like a bargain could just be a value trap.
