Experienced traders base their decisions on factors beyond the negativity brought about by devastating events happening in the crypto space, according to Dan Tapiero, founder of growth equity funds 10T Holdings and 1RoundTable Partners. Speaking with Cointelegraph, Tapiero shared some of his most important strategies to navigate the market, including having a broader perspective and avoiding the influence of feelings and people’s fears. He also pointed to developments in the decentralized finance (DeFi) space and highlighted that despite the space’s locked value going from $200 billion to $50 billion, it was also at zero a couple of years ago. Tapiero believes crypto is a market similar to other currencies, bonds or stocks and rational judgments that aren’t impacted by what the news is or what people’s fears are are important.
