🤑While 90% of admins are crying over a 20-25% correction, here's a sobering short post for you.
✔️TON is correcting on the general negativity, but is falling less than others. Take a look at the basic L2 on Ethereum or coins of other blockchains. If you bought TON at $7, don't be upset. Someone bought Starknet at $2.5, or ATOM at $12.
✔️If you can't survive a 25% drawdown, take a closer look at the stock market. Its volatility will be less if you buy fundamental companies according to Graham/Buffett. In crypto, it hurts when the portfolio is 3-4 times larger. When it hurts, I'll write.
✔️Instead of despair, you need to look for the positives. If you believe in TON, any correction is a reason to buy. If you don't believe, don't buy at all.
✔️Hedge risks with the right tools. Any correction on TON is a reason to average.
