We all know that feeling, maybe you were out when the news arrived, or you were in the bathroom, or making dinner or asleep.

You open up the charts, price-tracker, delta, blockfolio or twitter and it’s one of the two bogeymen of the crypto world. A sea of blood in your bags, or you missed a pump, or you missed a token launch, or one of your bags on an exchange has been hacked.

Your pulse rate increases, pupils dilate, the adrenaline starts to flow; you flick through browser tabs searching for more info to confirm what you have learned, you can feel a scream building inside your head…

‘No, no, no, NOOOOooooo!!!!!!!’.

Someone DM’s you ‘looks like you missed out dude’ or ‘RIP’.

The fear of a lost opportunity or of huge damage to your positions kick in — what to do? WHAT to DO?

Congratulations, you are in the grip of FUD or FOMO.
