A sharp criticism has emerged, stating that the irrational attitude of investors who are caught in the illusion of past bull markets and emotional attachment, failing to liquidate virtual assets stuck in loss zones, is the biggest reason for recording losses in a bear market.

Crypto analyst Adam Stokes revealed in an interview with Lark Davis, host of the crypto podcast The Lark Davis Show, on September 28 (local time), "I liquidated numerous coins and realized losses for tax purposes." He added, "I disposed of a significant amount of Cardano (ADA), but I am still making the mistake of leaving a small amount." Stokes shared his experience of selling Cardano in the $0.40 to $0.50 range, despite it having reached a peak of over $3 in the past, stating, "I am taking risks, seeing the possibility of a rebound to $0.80."

In response, Davis pointed out the need for decisive action to boldly liquidate dead assets. Davis asked, "Why are you clinging to the dead baggage of a previous cycle when a new cycle is beginning?" and "If you didn't hold Cardano today, would you buy it now at this price?" He continued, "Cardano has not shown significant ecosystem expansion for 8 years," emphasizing, "It requires the decision to move funds to assets with stronger conviction and opportunities instead."

Stokes agreed, stating, "Emotional attachment is the biggest problem," and "If I had that money today, I would invest in Solana (SOL), Bitcoin (BTC), or Hyperliquid instead of Cardano." Stokes predicted, "Solana is an asset that can easily go from $700 to $1,000," and "In this cycle, $2 trillion to $6 trillion could flow into the market."

Both experts unanimously agreed that training to realize profits by selling in installments during a bull market must precede. Stokes explained, "We press the buy button countless times, but we feel extreme fear when pressing the sell button," adding, "Only by converting assets that are merely numbers on a screen into real-life cash and purchasing actual goods can one escape the emotional trap." Davis also added, "We must break the vicious cycle of being trapped by greed, thinking prices will rise further, only to return to square one," and "Coins are just code on a screen that do not take responsibility for investors."

The attitude of being buried in past glory and unable to make a sell decision carries a high risk of leading to investment failure. Abandoning blind loyalty to specific assets and communities and establishing objective indicators and thorough installment selling principles are considered the key to survival in the rapidly changing virtual asset market.
