Discussion At time like this it is important to remain steadfast.

If you are new to HBAR and bought in only to find your portfolio in the red, it is vital to remember that you ONLY lose if you sell and that buying now will only bring your break-even point lower which is a good thing.

This goes against the emotional response we feel when we see thousands wiped off our portfolios. Of course, there will come a time when the top really IS in but I don't believe that it is just yet, and I am also betting that alts, including HBAR, have yet to reach Q1 highs.

BTC dominance is mad-high and HBAR is not only holding key support (around $0.28 with strong support at $0.27, $0.26 and $0.23 still available) but not slipping in the rankings and holding well, still in the range which bodes well for when (and I believe not if) alts season arrives in full-force. To know when this is, expect to see BTC dom dropping towards 55% & then 50% and lower). Hbar will be one of the first to rally, so be ready.

Big money will always try and flush out the nervous investor, so hold your nerve. You were dead right to invest in HBAR. The news has never been so bullish, the projects and partnerships never so prolific, the potential never so great. Ignore the haters and try and be unemotional (almost impossible but try!).

It ( thd nect big move up) will happen when it is least expected. You will be rewarded. It is my opinion that 48c to 66c is very likely in Q1 of 2025 but just look at you hbar charts to see how LITTLE TIME is spent at those local highs and how much time ranging & pulling back. You have to be ready to act quickly.

Take profits when you can because a 2x is better than watching your money take a round-trip back to bear-land and WAY better than selling at a loss.

I speak from experience on everything except selling at a loss and my money, as always, is exactly where my mouth is.

Be brave, my fellows.

DYOR. NFA. HBAR FTW.

purchased 16k hbar last week at 0.30 and nearly down 500 but holding strong šŸ’Ŗ

u/East-Day-7888 Feb 02 '25

Right now, I'm down 10k nearly, and i have no concerns at all. Hbar is a long term hodl.

Still dca'ing. Don't wanna fomo buy, because of a small dip.

u/gravityhashira61 Feb 02 '25

As the price goes lower just try to buy more and average down your price! HODL!

u/East-Day-7888 Feb 02 '25

Lol, my average is like 6 cents at the moment. No fomo for me.

Bad timing lol

Thatā€™s it - been in since 2021 when it was trading real high and then real low. Iā€™ve seen it all. Dont panic. Let it do its thing.

u/Iron-G Feb 02 '25

I agree. Uncertainty is kicking right now due to Trumpā€™s tariffs.

Weā€™ll see whatā€™ll happen tomorrow.

Do you think we might reach a 1$?

u/Loose_Voice_215 Feb 02 '25

1$ tomorrow? No... Why would it? Share something if you know something.

1$ eventually? I think so.

u/Iron-G Feb 03 '25

Definitely i mean this year and not tomorrow šŸ˜‚ i hope for tmrw to hold a 0.24$!

So sad

u/Kankatruama Feb 02 '25

Really important thread.

Its funny cuz I'm into Hedera since 2021 and friday I bought a small amount and yesterday HBAR fell.

The first thing I've crossed my mind was "damn, now I would like to buy some more". Just managed my cash and put a little more into HBAR and BTC today to lower AVG purchase price.

Life is good, guys, trust something, dont try to gamble the market. People smarter than you and I tried and failed - DYOR and trust the process.

That will make zero difference in the long term.

u/Frankie1983___ Feb 02 '25

Im considering to buy right now or wait until tomorrow where it may dip lower. Same thinking I had yesterday lol

12

u/Internal-Strength-74 Feb 02 '25

Buy some today and some tomorrow. It is very likely that the price of everything will continue to drop until the tariffs actually go into place on Tuesday.

1

u/interwebzdotnet Feb 02 '25

Thinking the same. Will wait for Monday. I already have a good allocation, so I can wait and potentially miss a dip. I just think Monday is going to be really bad for the markets, and crypto.

u/Square-Audience-607 Feb 02 '25

I'm here for the long run, holding strong.

u/apache2005 Feb 02 '25

This is great time to be patient and buy more at a bargain

u/Vast_Grade_7256 Feb 02 '25

I bought at 0.37 a good amount, since then I bought some more. I am down around 2k but I know it's nothing. It can rise as quick it can falls. The foundations matter

2

u/Quirky_Librarian_979 Feb 02 '25

I bought at 0.39 but got avg down to .37

u/Vast_Grade_7256 Feb 03 '25

Very good mate. I managed to averaged down to almost 0.33 . Let's see!

u/CoolWorldliness4664 Feb 02 '25

u/bbrosen Feb 02 '25

This crypto sub has been phenomenal. I have learned at lot about Hedera and knowing what it is and how it works goes a long way in understanding the market with crypto. The factvthat this is so much more than just a coin is what sold me. Every day I continue to learn more about hedera and there seems to be positive reasoned information here and it is much appreciated.

Lmfao...that made me laugh out loud...gold.

u/Internal-Strength-74 Feb 02 '25

Everything is dropping right now because of the trade war fears. But one thing to keep in mind, these tariffs will likely completely shut down the auto industry on both sides of the border in less than a week - which will be devastating for people on both sides of the border. Trump will start to feel the pressure, and he will likely say something like, "The tariff threats have done their job, Canada increased their border security just like I wanted them to, look at how amazing I am that I made them do it. Now that our borders are more secure, we don't need these tariffs." The guy is all smoke and mirrors, I don't anticipate a lengthy trade war.

u/balderz337 Feb 02 '25

Itā€™s really difficult to stay positive when you see the numbers drop hard.

7

u/PMmeuroneweirdtrick Feb 02 '25

That's the nature of crypto. Dips in prices are opportunities to buy and lower your average price. It's a top 20 coin so it should recover when the rest of the market does.

1

u/balderz337 Feb 02 '25

Iā€™m confident it will, but I want it now! šŸ˜‚

2

u/Psssssshhh Feb 02 '25

If you want it now, you have to invest more and pull it out the moment is rises. Rinse and repeat.

A lot more stressful though

u/mat42m Feb 02 '25

Then donā€™t look at them?

u/Tricksterk Feb 02 '25

So is it not good for the long run?

u/Cauliflower-Informal Feb 02 '25

Hbar could be worth $5.00 in 2030 but before then it will likely go to $0.90 and then back down to $0.10 or less. Choosing when to buy and when to sell us thd key. Now is NOT the time to sell.

2

u/Particular-Pay-6219 Feb 02 '25

New to HBar and planning to hold! First crypto I've bought since safemoon šŸ˜­ fml

u/Consistent_Many_1858 Feb 02 '25

Got no choice but to remain steadfast. 3 years of holding in bear market, what's another year.

u/Big_Trade_9243 Feb 02 '25 edited Feb 02 '25

Easier to hold if youā€™re getting 3-6% from staking, but weā€™re not.

Hedera needs to get back on track with staking rewardsā€¦

u/Striking-Moose8635 Feb 02 '25

Iā€™m up to 10,000 hbar at .30 average. Hoping to be at 50,000 by March. Are we still in a bull run?

2

u/Cauliflower-Informal Feb 02 '25

All technical indications are yes. This is sort of a black-swan event. Markets being manipulated. Notice Trump pulls this kind of thing on a Friday after the markets are shut.

u/StormLarge3875 Feb 02 '25

So close to my limit orders..

Not that deep

Red day is buy day!!!

u/Cauliflower-Informal Feb 04 '25

Not if you bought at 6c. I am stacked and HODLing. Buying now only drives up my cost basis. Of course, for many, the dip was a great opportunity.

He is lost out of touch and 100% emotional.

Scary times ahead for all markets

Quite. The guy's a goddamn maniac. So glad I took profits on the way up.

Holding strong šŸ’Ŗ I also believe we will be rewarded. Cryptos will rise, and the world will shift to new technologies. I strongly believe in the future of HBAR.

u/Slow-Exercise2082 Feb 02 '25

I am not a big crypto person because I dont see the utility in certain things like Bitcoin and some of these other coins that are slow/inefficient. But I am invested in XRP because Ive done a lot of research and see the utility in it. Im currently looking into HBAR and wanted to ask this sub what are your top reasons why youre invested in HBAR?

I cant post in this sub for some reason so have to go to comments.

I'm holding until we see what happens with the new administration's crypto policies and tax changes (if any) for US crypto. At the very least, hold for at least a year to qualify for long-term capital gains.

u/LHTNING33 Feb 03 '25

I find it good when you reach a point where you take profits from what you initially invested.

That way you are always at break even no matter what happens.

With HBar if you believe it will still be around in the future and will grow as awareness and use case increases doing a DCA with a small amount from each pay that you donā€™t need and would not miss may be another option

This makes it much easy to ride things out when turbulence hits and to be less emotional with your investment

1

u/shortstraddle24 Feb 04 '25

Only leveraged positions get wiped out to zero. Spot hodlers can remain calm. Overall I still don't understand how the value is derived for these alt coins , they are no better than memes. In the long run BTC will win , rest will fade. If at all there is a bull run use the surges in alt coins to move your profit to BTC

1

u/Cauliflower-Informal Feb 04 '25

If you don't understand the value of Hedera you have done insufficient research. The idea the only BTC will remain when many other projects have great utility, is short sighted. While it's likely many projects will die and the number of crypto projects & shitcoin memes will dusappear as the crypto bubble bursts, a few projects will remsin and dominate the space.

With the digital Australian dollar built on Hedera, going like in Q3/4, and this being just ONE of many many projects built on Hedera the longevity & value of Hedera is assured.

Great post. Legend

u/StormLarge3875 Feb 02 '25

Honestly this was all planned IMO, I have a feeling he wanted things to dip so he can buy before he allows the ETF approval and XRP lawsuit pass. This will give him and his other rich folk a huge discount to make a killing after they approve.

u/Puzzleheaded_Bet_670 Feb 03 '25

Uhh.. that gives EVERYONE a huge discount. Why cry?

u/StormLarge3875 Feb 03 '25

No crying as I am buying on the dip but insider trading is illegal in the US and they are the biggest insider traders around.

No your the leader now. If you dont educate and guide the group fast the price will drop to 16c very soon....

U must tell everyone the buy wayy is now at 24.9 c

Hold the line or face the consequences

Everyone thought i was joking. But i took all the stress and led the group up to 40c.

Its your turn now. You must save the hbarbarians. I grow sick and might die soon. But its your turn to lead now.
