Ever heard of FOBO? Probably not—and that's exactly the problem. While FOMO (Fear Of Missing Out) became a household term in crypto circles, its less famous counterpart FOBO (Fear Of Better Options) operates silently in the shadows, shaping how traders make decisions every single day. Both emerged around the same time, yet FOBO remains largely overlooked despite wielding equally powerful influence over market behavior. Understanding this psychological force is crucial if you want to break free from impulsive trading patterns.

I've definitely never heard the word FOBO before, but upon reflection... Damn, isn't this exactly what I go through every time? Always thinking the next coin will be more explosive, but in the end, I waver and miss out on everything.

Damn, I've really never heard of the word FOBO, but it hits hard... I always get stuck debating until nightfall over better options.

FOBO is really incredible... I keep obsessing over two coins repeatedly, and in the end, I didn't fully copy either of them.
