The Dogecoin bot has just been set up, and BNB is also on the chain. I only added a few thousand addresses yesterday, spent 48 hours researching various parameters and PVP strategies, and went through dozens of documents to understand what the "Mimi Coin" gameplay is all about.

Now that the market has suddenly changed, some people say they want to withdraw. If I follow and withdraw, all the previous learning costs and time will be wasted; if I don't, I risk being trapped.

Ironically, the logic that made me step back is the same logic that made me stay on the sidelines. The market is like this—caught between a rock and a hard place. This is probably the most heartbreaking feeling in the crypto market, especially at the moment the trend shifts.

BNB-0,4%

This is the sunk cost fallacy. Spending 48 hours in vain is really frustrating, but no matter how much money you lose, it can't be made up. --- The market turns into a trap at a glance. Basically, it's a battle between human nature and luck, with both sides blocked. --- Damn, I've heard this kind of argument countless times. It's always this dead cycle, truly incredible. --- Instead of obsessing over sunk costs, it's better to see if you can break even based on your current position—that's the real decision point. --- Got it, you're just caught in your own logic. The market won't give you face just because you've spent time. --- Honestly, if 48 hours of research didn't bring profit, it's just the tuition fee paid for a lesson. Just accept it. --- After a while, you get used to it. Next time, don't use "I've already invested so much" to shut yourself up.

The market turns sour just like that, wasting 48 hours in vain.

48 hours of wasted effort, this is the norm in Web3 --- The sunk cost fallacy is the most deadly; when you exit, don't think about how much you've invested before --- The feeling at the moment the market turns is truly amazing, but honestly, I should have set a stop-loss earlier --- That's why I now try small amounts more often; anyway, I can't afford to burn too much brainpower --- Got it, and now I'm caught in the psychological game of "can't admit loss" --- Dog coins are like this; quick in and quick out is the way to go, overthinking just ends it --- I just want to ask, is this set of parameters worth 48 hours? --- This feeling is so familiar to me; indecision in the crypto world is just the middle ground between taking losses or getting liquidated

This is the sunk cost fallacy. The things learned in 48 hours instantly become negative assets. Really, the moment the market turns, my mind just collapses. Holding or withdrawing feels like gambling. Then just cut it. Anyway, holding on will only blow up my mentality. Better to look for new opportunities.
