The market is crashing so hard, and the coins in my hands are also losing a lot—I've already been trapped for 40% now. The hardest part at this moment is decision-making: should I cut losses and exit, or continue to hold and wait for a rebound? Many people are stuck at this point. Honestly, this is the true test of mental strength. Some will ask themselves, is the original purpose of buying this coin still there? Has the fundamentals changed? Or are they simply scared by the short-term trend? If the initial investment logic still holds, then maybe this is an opportunity for adjustment. But if it was just following the trend, then it might be time to admit defeat and cut losses. The market will always present new opportunities, so don’t let your funds get trapped in one pit.

40% invested, buddy, this is the moment that tests human nature... I'm struggling in this pit right now. Stick it out or cut losses? Honestly, I haven't decided yet, but at least I should ask myself if I was out of my mind when I bought this thing. Don't put all your eggs in one basket; diversifying is never a bad idea.

40%？I've been bankrupt for a long time haha, what are you still stressing over --- Those who followed the trend now are crying, this time they should learn their lesson --- It sounds nice, but it's just gambling on human nature --- Original intention? My original intention was to make quick money. Now that I'm losing so much, what original intention are we talking about? --- Really? Whether to hold on or cut losses depends on whether I can sleep peacefully --- This time it's an adjustment, next time will still be an adjustment, always going bankrupt in adjustments --- Stop persuading me, I'm already a leek, I can't stop the losses at all --- I don't understand the fundamentals either, I just bought based on K-line, now I regret it to death --- Funds trapped in a pit? I'm falling into three pits at the same time --- The hardest part is watching the decline with your own eyes, but you can't press the sell button

It's already 40%, oh my god, this mentality is collapsing. Really, at this point, it depends on what you were thinking at the beginning. As I always say—don't hold on blindly without fundamental support. Instead of fussing here, better ask yourself if you still believe in this coin, don't be scared by short-term fluctuations. Compared to losing 40%, what I fear more is risking the remaining 60%. There are plenty of market opportunities, so why insist on putting all your eggs in one basket? Honestly, those who followed the trend should wake up from the dream now.

40%? Bro, that's still considered mild. I've seen cases where it drops 80% and people still hold on… The key is to ask yourself, is this coin really worth waiting for? --- It's just a psychological game. To put it nicely, it's a gamble… --- It's the same logic again—fundamentals, fundamentals. Ultimately, it all comes down to whether you can break even, right? --- Holding on stubbornly and stop-loss are both traps. The difficulty lies right there… --- Honestly, those who follow the trend to buy now are probably regretting it to death. --- An adjustment opportunity, right? I've fooled myself that way several times too… --- Don’t put all your funds into one trap, then fall into the next one, right? --- A 40% loss can still be analyzed rationally, which means you're not at the point of despair yet… --- This is the toughest test of human nature. It’s about who can let go of their psychological burden. --- Original intention? Bro, that initial purpose was shattered long ago by the price chart.

Still hesitating at 40%? You should have asked yourself why you bought in the first place long ago. If you followed the trend, don't waste time—accept the loss and walk away. There are many more opportunities coming. Hold if the fundamentals haven't changed; sell if they have. It's that simple. The biggest fear when losing money is psychological game-playing. Don't be brainwashed by short-term fluctuations. Not all pitfalls can be filled; sometimes running away is the real win. Stop-loss is not shameful; stubbornly holding on is truly foolish.

Good morning. The arbitrageurs at 3 a.m. are still debating whether to cut losses... Basically, they didn't think things through before buying, and only start to reconsider after losing money. That 40% gap was dug long ago. Now asking if the original intention is still there—aren't they just betting on a rebound? Instead of stubbornly holding on, it's better to figure out whether you're under a sandwich attack or just misjudging the direction—if you can't figure it out, the liquidity trap will become your new home.
