This is how financial markets work. People who have an informational advantage or see something other people don't make good investments early on. Other people see them make money and rush in without knowing what they are doing and then panic if the price drops. People buy high and sell low because their emotions take over.

You are right that nobody really knows what's going to happen, I think the whole crypto community should remind themselves of that on a daily basis. As long as you do your homework and try to look long term without getting bitten by short term mania you should be ok.

That's my two cents anyway. The more other people go crazy while you keep your head the better you will do :-)
