Is your asset worth holding? This is a question that not many of us ask as we scream 'HODL' at the top of our lungs during the bears. It is one thing to hold on to an asset, but another to really put faith in what you are holding on to.

I have a friend that sold his meme coin assets (shiba) some months ago after watching it decline with no indication of a recovery anytime soon. While there may be some hope of a rebound in the near future, relying on Elon Musk to chart the destiny of your asset does not inspire confidence in the asset itself.

Not all coins are worth it, and it is why trading is so popular. The entire space sometime feels like a madhouse with the nature of coins on display, and you really can't blame those who are overtly cautious about the chain. I mean you try explaining how a token goes from a couple of hundreds of dollars to dead in a the blink of an eye.

Going about during the bears unbothered by a drop in value is not an easy thing to do. I mean what exactly is there to hold on to in a situation where an asset loses 90% of its value? We saw the scramble to pull funds out during the Terra Luna crash and I wonder how things will if if Hive experiences a similar decline.

Except, we already have experienced a similar decline with Hive, haven't we? Going all the way down to 11 cents was no joke and was the ultimate test of the potential of this place. I doubt we'd ever dip so badly again but you just never know when it comes to crypto. How was the reaction then though, and has anything changed?

Yes a ton of people did pull their funds out during that period and some completely gave up on the chain. Yet, there were those who stuck around, grinding daily and believing in the fundamentals of the project. I have no words to describe how much we owe those set of people, especially the devs for continually grinding it out and bigger accounts who stuck around to help smaller accounts grow during the period.

Many people choose to stay because they believed in a project that promised more than just price fluctuations. I'll always sing the utility song when it comes to crypto because looking at prices go up and down and claiming to invest in blockchain technology simply doesn't count. I personally don't pay too much attention to Hive's value these days (I haven't even checked deliberately in a few days) , even though I keep coming across the value somehow. That in itself is a big flex.

Conclusion

Those who know where they are going keep going. Only those who have no destination are easily pulled aside when the going gets tough.
