Are we entering a crypto bear market?

With a score of 10, people are in âextreme fearâ now.
As prices of crypto fall, many investors get scared and pull their money out.
$UST was one of the biggest stablecoins in crypto.
It should be pegged to USD at $1, but it depegged. Itâs currently sitting at $0.06.
This caused Terraâs secondary token, $LUNA, to fall from nearly $100 to $0.00018 USD.

According to punk9059, the fall in the top 6 NFT projects was the most dramatic.
That said, no one could be spared: not a single NFT set in any of these indexes was up during this time.

Maybe the best solution is a self-custodial wallet solution (ie. coinbase wallet, metamask, gnosis-safe) đ€
Itâs not just crypto...
The overall macroeconomy is looming: slow economies, the Russia-Ukraine war, and supply issues.
Even tech stocks plummeted on Wall Street. The S&P 500 saw a 9.19% decrease compared to last month.
So are we entering a bear market?
Itâs tough to say.
The crypto market has a long history of extreme volatility.
Make sure your heart can weather the storms and that you are investing money you can afford to lose.
But it is worthwhile to end with Warren Buffetâs quote: âBe fearful when others are greedy, and greedy when others are fearful.â
