Whenever the market plunges sharply and a flood of pessimistic voices fills the screens, I do the same thing—close the candlestick chart and reread the technical documentation of my core holdings.
For me, DUSK is such a project that requires repeated confirmation. I revisit its technical papers, roadmap progress, and then ask myself the most fundamental questions: Does the core problem this project aims to solve still exist? Is the market space for privacy protection and compliance needs truly shrinking? Is the technical team still making orderly progress?
Every time I ask and answer these questions, the responses strengthen my confidence.
You’ll find that market sentiment is as unpredictable as waves, but the fundamental value of a project is like a reef beneath the sea. This habit helps me filter out the noise and also teaches me to distinguish between two concepts: what is short-term price fluctuation and what is genuine value destruction.
I believe this way of thinking might be something all long-term holders should develop.

I've also used the trick of closing the candlestick chart, but to be honest, sometimes I can't help but sneak a peek haha.
Re-reading the documentation repeatedly can indeed help calm the mind, and DUSK's privacy track definitely still has room for imagination.
But I'm more curious—how do you ensure that when you're reading, you're not just adding footnotes to your beliefs?

Turn off the chart reading documents set, I am also using it. But for DUSK, I am still observing the team's actual progress. To be honest, the market is too noisy.

lol reading whitepapers during crashes is the move, but let's be real — most people won't actually do this. they'll just panic sell and fomo back in at 3x

This guy is right. Reading the white paper instead of charts is a trick I often use too, but to be honest, most people can't stick with it for more than two days.

Close the candlestick chart to read technical documents. I've used this trick before, and it really can save your life. I've also looked into DUSK's privacy + compliance logic, and I think there's still potential.

That's right. At critical moments, you need to open up the candlestick chart and see what's underneath, instead of being led by others.

Close the candlestick chart to read the white paper. I also often use this trick, but it's easy to get distracted and start scrolling again haha
