Bear market comes with a lot of tension and decision. In a bear market, there will always be constant pressure to buy or sell which I believe is a part of a healthy market. People always have the mindset of making 100x on their investment during the bear market and this is what brings about greed and choosing shitcoin instead good investment. There are some projects you must let go of during the bear period because the bear market might have exposed them and if you keep investing in such projects you might lose all your money but greed won't let us stop.
The constant pressure to buy in a bear market always comes with two mindsets, to improve your portfolio or to let greed do the buying for us. To increase your portfolio in a bear market is very easy because you are buying at a cheap price but this can be difficult when we let greed take control because we will rather buy a shit coin if the price has almost reached zero calculating the profit we will be making in the bull market rather than buying into a solid project that would have improved our portfolio genuinely.
Some investors always go for the risky ones believing that risk is equal to reward. Reward follows risk but that is when our risk is calculated, when the chances of losing all our money are very low, when we don't let emotions control us and push us into making wrong choices. Greed sometimes makes us feel we are very smart, investing all our money not knowing we are catching a falling knife.
What we do and how we want our outcome to be as the market is concerned is up to us, we
can choose to grow our portfolio by buying the best altcoin and building for the bullish market and not seeking instant escape from poverty by buying dead projects hoping they will rise again. It is a true bear market is a land of opportunities but we can be lost if we do not focus.
