It’s perfectly okay for people to not be “loading their bags” right now especially if they’re at risk of losing their job or are struggling in this economic climate. No one truly knows how long the downturn will last and crypto is in uncharted waters from a global economy standpoint. The 4 year cycle may not hold true this go around. Ultimately do what’s best for you and your family in this time and if that means reducing exposure to crypto, that’s okay. It will be here for years to come. </p> <p>TL
