How to Survive This Crypto Bull Run Without Losing Your Mind🧠

Altcoins pump, then dump. #Bitcoin dips, CT panics.

If you’re stuck between FOMO buying and panic selling, this thread is for you.

Here’s how to play this bull run with calm, conviction, and capital intact🧵👇

1/x Every bull market has two traps:
🔻 Panic selling after a red candle.
🚀 FOMO buying every time an alt pumps 30%.

This cycle is no different but if you want to thrive, not just survive, you need a long-term mindset.

Here’s how I’m approaching it👇

2/x 1️⃣ Don’t overreact to small dips.

When the market pulls back 3-5%, it’s not the end of the cycle. If you're panicking, you’re either:
❌ Overexposed to microcaps.
❌ Overleveraged.
✅ Or just emotionally exhausted from 2022.

The bull run isn’t over, it’s still early.

3/x 2️⃣ Control your FOMO.

Every time #Bitcoin dominance dips a bit, CT screams “altseason.”

So people ape into low caps and get trapped again.

This isn’t 2021. Most coins aren’t doing 100x. And even if they pump, they give it back the second $BTC moves.

4/x Truth is: there’s plenty of time.

Altseason doesn’t happen overnight. When it’s real, it lasts months, not days.

You’ll have time to rotate when the trend confirms.

If you're rushing into junk because dominance dipped 1%, you're gambling, not investing.

5/x So how do you stay calm? Portfolio allocation.

I hold:
🔹 50–60% #Bitcoin
🔹 20% #Ethereum
🔹 20% #Solana (sometimes rotating into $XRP, $BNB, or $ADA)

When $BTC dominance goes up? $BTC holds strong.

When it dips? My blue chips slightly outperform.

6/x This setup does two things:
✅ Keeps you from panicking.
✅ Keeps you from feeling left out.

If your portfolio is nuking 20% on a $BTC dip, you’re too deep in low caps.

Balance gives you patience and patience is the edge this cycle.

7/x People ask why I don’t go full degen yet. Because I want capital left when the real window opens.

When $BTC dominance breaks down:
🟢 Below 50w SMA.
🟢 Weekly close under trend.
🟢 Clear lower highs and lower lows.

That’s when we rotate hard.

8/x I’ve made this mistake before:
🟥 Summer 2023.
🟥 Q4 2023 breakout.
🟥 Trump pump.

Each time, I aped too early. If I just held $BTC and large caps, my stack would be bigger and stress-free.

Lesson learned the hard way.

9/x So here’s the game plan:
✅ Stay deployed in $BTC and blue chips.
✅ Watch dominance.
✅ Wait for the trend to really flip.
✅ Then go degen.

Don’t try to be a hero this month. Try to have capital next month.

10/x Final thought: If you feel like you're “not doing enough” right now, you're probably doing it right.

This cycle rewards patience, not panic.

📉 Don’t sell the dip.
📈 Don’t chase the pump.
🧠 Just stick to the plan.
