I had this feeling viscerally in 2017, the only way to fix it is to go even harder next bear market.
Class of 2021 here. How do I enjoy a bull market? I’ve conditioned myself to desire drawdowns and max pain as I can obtain more sats per dollar. As I experience my first true bull market after diligently stacking in the bear the past two years, I’m filled with anxiety as I can buy fewer sats per dollar.
Am I overthinking this? Why does a rising bitcoin price give me anxiety when everyone else is celebrating?

and it gets worse with every bull market. for me the worse was having to deal with the noobs "i have just arrived, let me explain you why worldcoin will moon". very hard to avoid just pulling the "dude, i am here since 13, so shut the fuck up and listen". but with experience you learn to just let them touch the stove and start give them the alpha only slowly when the hubris passes
Assuming the next bear market never sees $54,000, doesn’t that mean we need to get stacking more sats now?!? The pressure!
I like that approach. My conviction has naturally grown seeing the cycles play out. I will be more aggressive next bear as a result.
