Many people use FOMO as a short-term trading tool, but in fact, this usage is only half correct. The real strategy should be—using it to accumulate coins.
My own FOMO position has always been small, but every time I see a Meme coin I like, I will add a bit appropriately. It was only later that I realized, rather than frequently flipping, it’s better to treat FOMO as a dollar-cost averaging tool, specifically for accumulating the coins I believe in.
The benefit of doing this is: it helps keep a calm mindset. You won’t be glued to the screen every day, nor be tormented by short-term fluctuations. When the real opportunity comes, the chips you hold will be ready to play.
There have been a few times when I made impulsive trades, but now I’ve changed my approach—rather than regretting selling impulsively, it’s better to set the right mindset from the start. Hold onto the coins you believe in without selling. Next time, I won’t take this detour again. This is the correct way to utilize FOMO.

To be honest, I've already figured out this whole coin stacking thing. The key is to hold back and not watch the market charts every day.

Selling too many times before realizing that instead of chasing highs and lows, it's better to hold a coin firmly and stick to it until the end. It really saves a lot of worry.

nah this is actually the psychological warfare move... accumulation phase wrapped in fomo. most people still don't get it tbh, they're too busy scalping shitcoins into oblivion. the ones who survive these cycles? they're the quiet accumulators. not talking about it until the divergence shows up on the charts.

Data shows that dollar-cost averaging can indeed smooth out volatility... But still, why didn't anyone really hold on during the historical lows? Let's wait and see. The issue of miners consuming too much gas fee has never been resolved, and the logic of inevitable collapse can't be changed.
