In the past couple of days, the push feeling for ETH has been very strong, and some people in the group are asking whether to take profit at this position first.
If you are a short-term trader, then take profit according to the plan, and leave when it's time to go.
But if you are a long-term thinker, things are different - when the market is uncertain, you need to think clearly:
What should I do with the money after selling?
If the funds from selling are just sitting idle, waiting to "buy back on a pullback", then you have to bear a risk:
The price may never return to the position you expected, and instead continue to rise. At that time, whether to buy back at a high price or completely miss out becomes a psychological game.
For long-term holders, there is not much need to exit easily unless there is systemic risk or an investment target that is more certain than ETH.
The current ETH not only has the potential benefits of spot ETF staking, but also has medium to long-term stories such as RWA and on-chain brokerages, which are directions that institutions and large funds are already betting on.
So, if you believe in the fundamentals and long-term value of ETH, then holding on during uncertain market conditions might actually be the safest decision.
Short-term volatility is inevitable, but the long-term trend is the reason for your bet.
