Crypto has its own secret language — and if you don’t speak it, it can feel overwhelming. In today’s episode of New To Crypto, I’m breaking down three of the most common (and most important) terms you’ll hear everywhere in the crypto space: HODL, FUD, and FOMO.
✅ Learn the funny origin story behind HODL and why it’s become a badge of honor for long-term investors.
✅ Understand how FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) spreads through the market — and how to separate signal from noise.
✅ Discover why FOMO (Fear of Missing Out) is one of the fastest ways beginners lose money — and how to avoid falling into the trap.
By the end of this episode, you’ll not only know what these terms mean but also how to spot them in action and make smarter investing decisions.
If you’ve ever felt lost in the jargon, this episode will give you the clarity and confidence to join the conversation like a pro.
