strategy

Buy The Dip (BTD) means purchasing an asset after a decline, usually because the buyer believes the long-term thesis remains intact or the market overreacted. It is a form of market timing and can fail if the decline reflects real deterioration.

risk

BTD became a crypto meme because volatile markets create frequent pullbacks. The phrase should not replace risk management, position sizing, or checking whether liquidity, security, or fundamentals changed.
