Title: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: emmiebrizzie on June 17, 2018, 09:21:49 PM Nobody seems to be talking about it but the price of cryptocurrencies has been taking a beating this past week. If you're new to cryptocurrency and you haven't developed the discipline to hold on to your coins during times like this, it could be a very scary time specially if you have invested your money as I did.
I am, of course, speaking from my own experience. It's only my third month on steemit. I've only bought SBD two months ago but I've seen the price of steem double and then drop down below the amount I purchased them within that short time span. So I did what any newbie coin holder does during drops in prices. I read everything I can about the topic. This is what I've learned so far . . . Every Existing CryptoCurrency is Still Coupled with BitCoin This simply means that all other existing coins are tied to the price of Bitcoin. If Bitcoin drops, all other coins drop. If bitcoin gains, all other coins gain as well. Allegedly, Bitcoins extraordinary price surge last December was fueled by price manipulation centered around Bitfinex and Tether. If the price of Bitcoin was artificially inflated, it would naturally correct and lose value taking along all other coins with it in the plunge. https://cointelegraph.com/news/research-tether-bitfinex-manipulation-reason-behind-2017-bitcoin-price-highs https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoins-falling-price-nothing-more-than-perception-or-is-there-manipulation Ideally, each coin must be evaluated by its own merits. That's still not happening but should in the future. It's called 'decoupling' and should benefit the entire crypto industry as we won't all be dependent on the price of Bitcoin. Security Issues Blockchain tech is highly secure. The security problems often exploited by hackers are in the exhanges. One reason often cited as a contributor to the falling prices of cryptocurrency is the hacking of CoinRail, a relatively small coin exchange in South Korea. However, some say that it couldn't have been the cause of the continuing fall of crypto prices. Regardless, it's clear that some exchanges are not taking security as seriously as they should. This issue has been happening again and again. I will not go into how to secure your account, your wallets, and your coins. That is your responsibility and if you haven't taken steps to secure your assets, stop reading this and go secure your coins first. Government Regulation The SEC now considers ICO's an unregulated securities market. And the governments seem to have a good reason to regulated ICO's and cryptocurrencies in general. The general public is not protected from fraud. If you ask me, anyone trying out cryptos should do their homework first. But, government protection should help. Still, government regulation seems to be a turn-off for a lot of investors. And thus, it's a contributing factor to the falling crypto prices. The Sky Isn't Falling The crypto market has seen its ups and downs for several years now. We know that you can lose money if your timing isn't right. Overall, the crypto world isn't doing so bad. As for me, I will continue doing what I'm doing, accumulating as much SP as I can no matter what the USD value is. I know it won't keep falling forever. It might take months to go up again but I don't care. I'll just keep doing what I've been doing.

Well, I think that the market is down because of what we think is the worlds’s way of telling us that bitcoin is unstable and it is suffering from setbacks such as this if we are not careful. I think that bitcoin is a pill that we swallow and think that it is a potion that can cure all of our ailments when in reality it just means that we are becoming more and more dependent on it without really studying what it is than what we experienced from the past Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: shaw1 on June 18, 2018, 12:15:16 AM Nobody seems to be talking about it but the price of cryptocurrencies has been taking a beating this past week.

This is just an additional input, Market is Volatile, no one knows what will happened next, beside on the what has been posted on this treed which is most like a well research statement about Bitcoin, and a lot more information mentioned. Yes, it is true one should do once home work about Bitcoin. But if we are not so objective about what we read on the post or we did not have the comparison/ evaluation before we make our move, whether Buying or Selling we might have a wrong timing for such decision.

Quote If bitcoin gains, all other coins gain as well. that is not always true though. when bitcoin is in bull mode there is a lot of money coming in the market which may or may not go into altcoins to pump them also. some get pumped and some don't and those pumped coins will get dumped eventually. Quote Allegedly, Bitcoins extraordinary price surge last December was fueled by price manipulation centered around Bitfinex and Tether. there is always a certain amount of manipulation in any market, bitcoin also has it. but to say Bitfinex with less than 10% of the total trading volume manipulated the price is just not correct.people are too caught up in the Mt Gox fiasco that they forget Mt Gox was controlling the whole market because it was controlling more than 85% of the volume and the rest of the exchanges were too small to do anything. Quote Ideally, each coin must be evaluated by its own merits. That's still not happening but should in the future. It's called 'decoupling' and should benefit the entire crypto industry as we won't all be dependent on the price of Bitcoin. hopefully that will happen the day altcoins become decent projects worthy of the name: crypto currency. right now they are called pump and dump. so that is what they do.Quote One reason often cited as a contributor to the falling prices of cryptocurrency is the hacking of CoinRail, i personally disagree with this. CoinRail was too small to affect anything let alone its hack be of any importance not to mention that the hacker mainly stole altcoins not bitcoin!Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: Dudeperfect on June 18, 2018, 02:47:19 PM There are multiple factors that affects the price and I believe that the current price level is a result of correction phase that took place in the first quarter of this year. However, I am optimistic about the growth of crypto industry and I believe that we will see a positive momentum in the price in second half of this year. I am bullish in short as we all super long term about Bitcoin.

I myself am trying to hodl on tight but it's getting pretty hard. Honestly at this point I'm not sure what has a stronger pull on price: Technical Analysis (which is overwhelmingly negative) or shady market manipulation tactics (the Bart patterns we've been seeing as of late). Let's just hope 6k holds.

Regulation can't fix stupid. Honestly, I agree with you to a point. I do agree crypto should remain how it is, with the people in control of it. However, I also believe that for crypto to actually take off, you need adoption. In it's current state there are very few massive companies that actually want to get involved in crypto, just due to the bad image it has in media, etc. Crypto can't be something that only 'geeks', 'nerds', or 'your weird neighbour' participates in, for crypto to really take off, it has to be something that your 'grandma', your 'teacher', your 'sexy blonde neighbor' uses. For crypto to be adopted by the masses, unfortunately, you need regulation on some of it. It's nice to think that hey, the entire world is smart enough to understand crypto and all the benefits that it can yield. But unfortunately a good portion of these people need big daddy to hold their hand and tell them it's okay. It's not worth it for a company to have a major partnership with crypto right now, it could be a huge problem if their partnered crypto ends up being hacked, hijacked, FUD into oblivion. They need reassurance that the government will at least try to help protect them. Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: rightway00372018 on June 18, 2018, 03:02:04 PM Yes, the market for now is not playing and maybe it's hard for people to trust their money in cryptocurrency invest but still i do believe that once some countries will adapt cryptocurrency and introduce it to their people i think this will be speed recovery of crypto market.
Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: Josiah Dave Leonor on June 18, 2018, 03:02:57 PM Market is down for now because there is an undergoing correctiom in the crypto value right so we expect that the price of each crypto will go down because of the correction, so its adviceable to invest or buy this time because the cryptos are going down and down

This thread will certainly be moved there too.Every Existing CryptoCurrency is Still Coupled with BitCoin I don't agree with this, not all altcoins have the same pattern with Bitcoin. I had an altcoin before and it was going in the other direction while Bitcoin was gaining value. I mean it can happen but it's not guaranteed.This simply means that all other existing coins are tied to the price of Bitcoin. If Bitcoin drops, all other coins drop.

Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: ImageProtect on June 18, 2018, 04:03:23 PM Last year at this time BTC was hovering around $2500+/- with steady upward momentum before exploding around November.
I'm hoping it does the same thing this year because it's trending similarly. The only issue I'm having is whether or not to buy now or see if it drops more. I'm on the fence. Maybe this year it hovers around $6500+/- and explodes again? I can only dream it hits $50K. To buy now and HODL or wait a few more weeks to see if prices drop some more? THAT is the question!

Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: Malsetid on June 18, 2018, 04:12:15 PM Bitcoin and the entire market have been taking a beating since the 20k run started to decline.

With most rumors and news about btc leaning on the negative, and with people already being aware that this market can plunge this way, I don't see why we should be surprised that this market is acting like this.

I've only bought SBD two months ago but I've seen the price of steem double and then drop down below the amount I purchased them within that short time span. So I did what any newbie coin holder does during drops in prices. I read everything I can about the topic. This is what I've learned so far . . . Every Existing CryptoCurrency is Still Coupled with BitCoin This simply means that all other existing coins are tied to the price of Bitcoin. If Bitcoin drops, all other coins drop. If bitcoin gains, all other coins gain as well. Allegedly, Bitcoins extraordinary price surge last December was fueled by price manipulation centered around Bitfinex and Tether. If the price of Bitcoin was artificially inflated, it would naturally correct and lose value taking along all other coins with it in the plunge. https://cointelegraph.com/news/research-tether-bitfinex-manipulation-reason-behind-2017-bitcoin-price-highs https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoins-falling-price-nothing-more-than-perception-or-is-there-manipulation Ideally, each coin must be evaluated by its own merits. That's still not happening but should in the future. It's called 'decoupling' and should benefit the entire crypto industry as we won't all be dependent on the price of Bitcoin. Security Issues Blockchain tech is highly secure. The security problems often exploited by hackers are in the exhanges. One reason often cited as a contributor to the falling prices of cryptocurrency is the hacking of CoinRail, a relatively small coin exchange in South Korea. However, some say that it couldn't have been the cause of the continuing fall of crypto prices. Regardless, it's clear that some exchanges are not taking security as seriously as they should. This issue has been happening again and again. I will not go into how to secure your account, your wallets, and your coins. That is your responsibility and if you haven't taken steps to secure your assets, stop reading this and go secure your coins first. Government Regulation The SEC now considers ICO's an unregulated securities market. And the governments seem to have a good reason to regulated ICO's and cryptocurrencies in general. The general public is not protected from fraud. If you ask me, anyone trying out cryptos should do their homework first. But, government protection should help. Still, government regulation seems to be a turn-off for a lot of investors. And thus, it's a contributing factor to the falling crypto prices. The Sky Isn't Falling The crypto market has seen its ups and downs for several years now. We know that you can lose money if your timing isn't right. Overall, the crypto world isn't doing so bad. As for me, I will continue doing what I'm doing, accumulating as much SP as I can no matter what the USD value is. I know it won't keep falling forever. It might take months to go up again but I don't care. I'll just keep doing what I've been doing. Well, I think that the market is down because of what we think is the worlds’s way of telling us that bitcoin is unstable and it is suffering from setbacks such as this if we are not careful. I think that bitcoin is a pill that we swallow and think that it is a potion that can cure all of our ailments when in reality it just means that we are becoming more and more dependent on it without really studying what it is than what we experienced from the past Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: virendarnagpal on June 18, 2018, 04:41:56 PM Market sentiments are the major reason behind the movement of price. Nowdays the price is down because bear mode is running. Whenever the bull mode is in the market; everyone tries to buy more and more. And as a result; the price rises more and more.
Opposite is true in bear mode. No body wants to buy. They fear buying. So as a result; the price if not falls also not rises. Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: stayeduptolate on June 20, 2018, 09:37:17 AM Nobody seems to be talking about it but the price of cryptocurrencies has been taking a beating this past week. If you're new to cryptocurrency and you haven't developed the discipline to hold on to your coins during times like this, it could be a very scary time specially if you have invested your money as I did. The valuation of bitcoin is very volatile and it depends on the number of investors investing into bitcoin and specifically the big whales who use to spent a huge amount into bitcoin and second thing on which the valuation of bitcoin depends is demand and supply of bitcoin, this time the market is down because there are less investors investing into bitcoin because of negative rumours spread about bitcoin and I think this is the best time to invest into bitcoin and then hold.I am, of course, speaking from my own experience.

Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: code on June 27, 2018, 04:48:39 PM I don't think you need to invest more than you can afford anyway. this is the main rule that allows you to safely give your money to grow
Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: sitnibtc on June 29, 2018, 03:01:19 PM i think we should just be optimistic that the market can go up again. we all invested in this afterall.

These are great lessons to learn from an experience crypto fan, thank for a job well done, I believe every crypto community member will take these lessons seriously. Again I think whatever that goes down will surely goes up again, altcoins prices would soon up again. This is the financial laws of inertia. Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: danbitcoin1 on June 29, 2018, 03:25:50 PM I don't think anybody knows the real reasons why. Probably just a few whales deciding to cash out and then a knock on effect.
Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: Coinlover9 on June 29, 2018, 03:35:28 PM It think it's down because it has grown abrupt and was bound to explode in our faces.once it's become stable and grows steadily it won't be a problem the Major issues was it unexpected and uncontrollable growth in a short period of time.
Title: Re: Why market is down and What to Expect Post by: alihassan99 on June 29, 2018, 03:39:47 PM you can say it correction... without such corrections the market can not be said to be a healthy market.. so such corrections happens :)

This is demonstrating you still don't have a clue what bitcoin is. If you want the government to be involved, go back to paypal. This is a free market. If you invest in horrible ICOs without doing due diligence, I'm actually probably going to chuckle about you losing your money later. Because you really don't respect it enough to have it in the first place. We don't need governments to think for us. And to require businesses to comply with their standards. Blockchain technology is cryptography. And not much more. But it allows us the freedom to create a whole new world in our little sphere of complex, chained math equations. That isn't the domain of the government. The problem will fix itself. The ignorant will lose their money, and then the problem will be over, because they won't have money to invest poorly anymore. Regulation can't fix stupid. |
