Guide: How to Build Mental Resilience

The crypto market is one of the most volatile asset classes in the world, and inevitable periods of decline can be extremely emotionally challenging. But how do you deal with difficult times? By building mental resilience.

Have a long-term vision

Innovation in the crypto market has been rapid, even over the last 2-3 years. This acceleration has been fueled by the huge inflow of capital that we’ve seen since the start of the pandemic. Increased funding has led to better, faster development. Do you believe that this will slow down over the next 5 years? 10 years? We do not, we believe the trend will continue - that is our vision for crypto.

By developing a 5 to 10-year vision, we can see the bigger picture and look past day-to-day fluctuations and short time horizons. As Warren Buffet famously said: “Always invest for the long-term.” This helps us think rationally when the market periodically turns against us. 

Manage your expectations

The crypto market has been through several boom and bust cycles since the introduction of Bitcoin in 2009. But no matter how much experience you may have, going through drawdowns is never pleasant. Managing your expectations regarding market volatility is key to building the mental resilience you need to weather the storms.

Have conviction

Having conviction in your investments and accepting that there will be volatility in the crypto market, in both directions is essential to weather the storms and come out on top. 

No one likes seeing drawdowns, but in the crypto market, it’s just part of the game. If an investment is making you feel uncomfortable, figure out why. Ask yourself- do you know exactly what you’re invested in? If the answer is no, it’s time to learn more about the project. 

The only way to build conviction is through research and understanding. Without an adequate understanding of the assets you’re investing in, it’s impossible to achieve long-term success in the crypto space. 

Understand how emotions affect decision making

The human mind is one of the most complex entities in the universe and learning more about psychology can help us understand the emotional responses that influence our decisions. As investors, we feel a wide range of emotions watching assets appreciate or depreciate over time. Understanding the psychology of investing can help us avoid letting our emotions take control of our decision making.

It’s important to learn to be sceptical and critical, not fearful. Scepticism keeps us rational and prevents us from making poor decisions. But, if fear and stress take over, we aren’t really making decisions at all, we’re merely succumbing to emotion. If we’re overly fearful, we’re not in a position to make rational decisions.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I trust Cryptonary's calls?

Yes. We've consistently identified winners across multiple cycles. Bitcoin under $1,000, Ethereum under $70, Solana under $10, WIF from $0.003 to $5, PopCat from $0.004 to $2, SPX blasting past $1.70, and our latest pick has already 200X'd since June 2025. Everything is timestamped and public record.

Do I need to be an experienced trader or investor to benefit?

No. When we founded Cryptonary in 2017 the market was new to everyone. We intentionally created content that was easy to understand and actionable. That foundational principle is the crux of Cryptonary. Taking complex ideas and opportunities and presenting them in a way a 10 year old could understand.

What makes Cryptonary different from free crypto content on YouTube or Twitter?

Signal vs noise. We filter out 99.9% of garbage projects, provide data backed analysis, and have a proven track record of finding winners. Not to mention since Cryptonary's inception in 2017 we have never taken investment, sponsorship or partnership. Compare this to pretty much everyone else, no track record, and a long list of partnerships that cloud judgements.

Why is there no trial or refund policy?

We share highly sensitive, time-critical research. Once it's out, it can't be "returned." That's why membership is annual only. Crypto success takes time and commitment. If someone is not willing to invest 12 months into their future, there is no place for them at Cryptonary.

Do I get direct access to the Cryptonary team?

Yes. You will have 24/7 to the team that bought you BTC at $1,000, ETH at $70, and SOL at $10. Through our community chats, live Q&As, and member only channels, you can ask questions and interact directly with the team. Our team has over 50 years of combined experience which you can tap into every single day.

How often is content updated?

Daily. We provide real-time updates, weekly reports, emergency alerts, and live Q&As when the markets move fast. In crypto, the market moves fast, in Cryptonary, we move faster.

How does the 3X Value Guarantee work?

We stand behind the value of our research. If the documented upside from our published research during your 12-month membership does not exceed three times (3X) the annual subscription cost, you can request a full refund. Historical context: In every completed market cycle since 2017, cumulative documented upside has exceeded 10X this threshold.
