if you're holding fundamentally strong projects, you should be okay in the long term

If you're holding fundamentally strong coins/tokens, you would fare well in the long term. Bull runs are all about hype, shitcoins with no usage pump several 100x while coins which have actual utility don't pump much. Many beginners make the mistake of holding hype vaporware tokens well into a bull market and regret when their portfolios are -90%. We are in a bear market, your first goal should be having projects which have actual use case. Most of these shitcoins will never reach their ATH. Stay safe and keep stacking for next bull run.
