Short form for ‘fear of missing out’. The feeling when you see a huge green dildo on a chart and you don’t own that coin, so you sell other shit to buy into it freaking out. As crypto trading is still very much driven by emotions rather than valuation, FOMO is a huge factor to consider when swing trading in crypto.
Sold all my shitcoins and FOMO'd into WABI, Qlink, and THEKEY . Gotta make sure I catch that green dildo yo.
