Putting money into crypto? Yeah, it's risky. But here's the thing—sitting on the sidelines completely? That carries its own risks too. FOMO, inflation eating your cash, missing the next bull run. So which risk are you actually comfortable taking?

The data shows that when analyzed hourly, the risk curves for holding coins and empty positions should have crossed long ago, but... let's wait a bit longer. I still feel we haven't reached the historical lows yet.

Instead of worrying about the risks, better to ask yourself how many bullets are left in your wallet.

From a risk control perspective, both sides are playing with fire. Entering the market carries the risk of a chain reaction of liquidations, but staying flat also depends on how much borrowing rate and inflation eat away at your position. The key is how much volatility your health factor can withstand.

To be honest, doing nothing is also a form of action. Holding cash that depreciates every day is not better than taking a gamble, since it's all a gamble anyway.

Sitting and watching is also a loss. Instead of the devaluation of fiat currency, it's better to take a gamble.

All-in or zero out, it's just a choice. I'm the type to reinvest after getting my initial return from free projects; anyway, quietly harvesting profits is a huge gain. But now, more and more people are concerned about electricity costs, it seems I need to change my approach.
