I think you are absolutely right with that statement. Bitcoin for example is the introduction point for investing in the blockchain. The cycles show bitcoin value decreased when ETH started gaining market share. Then it decreased again when the ALT coins got their share. It's about time for the cycle to move up, and the big institutions are working hard to push prices down to buy the dip.
I unfortunately, will not be able to buy the dip because I believe in each one of the tokens in my portfolio (day trading is too stressful for me). The market will recover, but as somebody say in a different comment, the HODL strategy needs to be adjusted to the market conditions.
Great post @aggroed
