Bitcoin Forum

Heyo. My thoughts:

1) Mining/Staking/Masternodes
2) Airdrops/Bounties
3) Shorting w/ leverage
4) Arbitrage
5)...
6) MacDonalds

Anything else?

May I also add... How to lose more (possibly all) money than the market:

1.) Margin trading w/leverage

You could spend months and years building up your BTC account and 1 flash crash or flash pump can wipe it all away, even with stop losses. I've seen people suggest to not go above 15x on leverage. If you have high leverage, many times your stop loss will not trigger before you are liquidated because the system is flawed in a way that they get your money. Remember, the house always wins.

I reduced my activity in the crypto market to 3 ways:
2) Airdrops/Bounties - participating in Signature campaign
7) New ICOs research to find new gem to invest small amount

seems like a good list. You can also study/research a lot and prepare for the next bullrun to take more then the previous time and avoid the same mistakes

Anyways, price will depend on what BTC does. I'm taking my profits now and putting back into BTC. Repeat cycle if you believe in the some project

If the bloodbath getting worse, change point 6) MacDonalds with instant ramen/noodle because in my country MacDonalds quite expensive compared to our local food.  :D

Saving token from bounty results is the way I often do. That is, the price of altcoin cannot return. This is seen from the price trend that continues to decline ;D

The best way to make profit in this bear market is to participate in airdrop or bounties because it isn't advisable to invest expect you want to buy coins for the future because the price is low.

Airdrops are worthless, hardly can you make good money that translates to a profit with them.  Margin trading is one scary shit I wont even attempt now because I've seen people get rekt from just one trade, not even with stop losses in place

My strategy to make money in this bloodbath is to buy coins with potential at low price, wait for the market to recover and prices to rise.

Margin trading with high leverage is the worst idea, even if you win some trades, one bad trade will burn all your deposit, we need patience for our investments to be fruitful especially during this  downtrend.

I am collecting my investments because I agree with bounty for the time being that I am sure it will not be timely. AirDrops I have now paused.

for now all that can be done is to buy and save for long-term profit, the market is not yet fully stable but this is the right time to make a decision

And what prevents you from earning your investment in the ICO stage? You can also earn in bounty companies.

I have lost a lot of money since last December, but I believe that the market will grow

Making instant gains for me this time is to trade because there are still positions that opens. Buying and hodling coin to sell during bullish time is not making money in this blood birth. It is a future expectation to make money I think that is not directly what OP is asking for.

I like your last option :) But seriously, it seems to me that now is not the best time for speculation. It is better to keep everything in Fiat until the market starts to grow.

BOUNTY is my choice and im earning well from that. im currently doing 30+ different bounties including signature. that gives me very good amount of money to buy more alts and hold for longterm

In this market situation you can choose your last option and you can do bounties and day trading as well these two option will be good if you are not too greedy I mean if you make 10 percent daily profit that will be good also if you have enough capital you can mine coins but I will not suggest leverage trading unless you are professional because most of people always go into loss in leverage trading.

I'm only doing bounty. Airdrops are no longer in my list. I have no money to invest. So my only choice is doing bounty. I know it is not a profitable one some times. But I have nothing to waste there except my time.

Simple, if you believe in crypto and you believe better times will come in the near future, than buy some BTC or ETH and hold them for a while.
Only invest money that you are willing to loose, as you never can know what will happen next.

I just scalp on this season, Low volatile creates more profit if you love trading but ofcourse it's risky. Too much blood bath will kill your ego and confidence.
Make profit as much as you can. Then hold all alts for the rest of your life.

I saw your list but even if you are a miner or masternode holder you still have a threshold you don't want your coins to go below. Those that have made most money in the space this year IMO are those shorting the tokens, those buying on exchange and not into ICO because most of them have lost more than 70% of their value already

Hahah, you got me with the last option...McDonalds!  ;D I think the easiest way is doing bounties, but maybe try mining (if you have spare cash that you can invest into mining rigs) or maybe swing trading.

For me in this blood bath i will normally go with bounty and airdrop, I don't really know much about other methods of earning so I will always go with the one i am already familiar with, with is bounty.

I make some profit through trading and bounty, I don't normally do airdrops these days, during these blood bath, market go up and down, so I normally but low and sell high, that's how i been making so profit.

It's quite easy and simple. During bloodbaths like this, the prices of most of the coins are usually low, and there is no better time to invest in your favorite coins than now. Wise investors make good use of the opportunity that is in this market trend. They stock up their wallets with their favorite coins as it is cheaper to but at this point, and get higher profits when the prices go back up.

In periods of bear like this present condition of the market, I think the best way to make profit is to participate in bounties because by doing this, you get free token and if you hold till when the market recover from the bear and the token is listed on an exchange list, you will make profit as it grows. You can also do airdrops but before you take part in any of this, I will advice that you take time to do a very good research of the projects to find potential and promising ones.

it is important to invest time, when market prices plummeted, people sell off some of his coin. This is the opportunity for those who purchase and wait for opportunity

Well, I am a student so I don't have a time for a full time job, a part time job can be quite stressful, so I try to get signed up in a lot of bounty campaigns as I see that they bring profits that are good if you consider the amount of time you have to spend in them.

Another variant it's doing a teaching. To tell people what is it cryptocurrency, how is a working a blockchain, how is a doing a investments, to sale and etc. Income from two ways promotion and courses.

What's that McDonalds?

Making profit through the bloodbath is by just buying why everything is bleeding. This is the cycle that will never go wrong, keep on buying on the dip.

These days really good for keeping yout portfolio on TUSd.   or you can do short  buy and sell. day trading. if you  get 10% profit then sell it. we can not expect big green days.

understand that prices will depend on the value of bitcoin, so if bitcoin falls, then everything else will fall and reverse, bitcoin rises and everything else is related to bitcoin.

No, you are wrong, the best way to make profit in the blood path is buying coins, you can't always make profit in one day. Just buy cheap coin that will make the new bull run.

As the market look volatile it better to hodl your coins rather than thinking of selling. In this tough situation if you hodl coins then you will be smart person in the world. All I can say is wait for your day it's not far away from you ;)

In this market situation, my strategy is to hold my coins instead of selling at low price. At the same time, I buy more coins at the current low price. I believe the profits will be good once market recover.

This is the only realistic option to profit for the fall. The leveraging options are available however for the main coins, there is no way to short other smaller tokens, but I would appreciate if someone could share an exchange that allows shorting any token in general because I think that true profit lies in there.

Keep averaging down or swing trade every trade on your watch list.

They are profitable if you are holding, for instance, Mining/staking and bounty campaigns are not that profitable if the market is red, you can't sell if you've done some mining then the electricity cost is more than the value of coins that you've got due to the market decrease the same thing applies to bounty and airdrops most especially if ICO releases their tokens to exchanges, holding is the best option for this scenario.

well i dont think any strategy works in bearish market. it can work for 1 or times but after that you loose more. margin trading is an option as well but it is also so risky. i would prefer to just hold and wait till market recovers.

In this market, it is almost impossible to make money especially on trade and bounty campaigns. Projects have stopped paying money for our work. I honestly do not understand what this is due to

The most experienced players of the cryptocurrency market are able to earn good money even in a situation when the market falls. However, today I do not know such sure techniques for myself.

I think trading for the short term is one way to generate profits in blood baths. monitor the market, buy at the time of dumped and wait for the pump to immediately sell it. but all of this is not as easy as we think, because there is still a big risk waiting if we are wrong in choosing it.

Airdrop is not suitable anymore to be used as a place to get money / coins. Just bounty campaigns and signature campaigns that are paid with btc that will give you money or an income. If you are a design maker, you can promote what you can. Many new projects are looking for these skills. In this way you can get money or an income.

Looking for the short term profit from day trading can be a good choice these day, cause the market is fluctuating, it could be easier to find for profits from the rapid market movement.

Bounty and airdrop is the way most do in circumstances like this. relying on the market as this would be an uncertain result would even be worse. only through the bounty and the airdrop will be a lot of people can get results even there is also the risk that must be experienced in this field.

make profit in blood bath? I go work McDonalds lol ;D. well I still doing bounties even the market is down or up and I don't want to sell cryptos this down market I just hold for now it will increase soon, how about buy more cryptos this down market you will earn profit soon.

If we have  more free money i think it is worth to buy more crypto that we think it can give us profit in future. Because it is still better than do nothing else than hold. Holding will give us profit but hold more coins means more profit.

Simply,holding can be the best option to make money in the bear market but through trading can minimze the loss ans sometime even can increase our capitals through altcoin trading but still it needs huge skills and luck as well,I don't suggest minin because it has been less profitable since the price dropped very huge.

If we are on a bloody coins like price of coins dropping It's better to participate in airdrop/bounties to earn free tokens and avoid lossing funds. Than putting your funds in trading Its hard to make a profit in that way.

the best way for make profit for me, trading using arbitrage methode, this is the best and fast way for make big profit using the different price in few exchanger

For me mining and bounties are the best options. I think it is worth mining if you have the right and good equipment. If you don't than bounties are also a good idea

The most profitable thing to do in the current market is to accumulate bitcoin and strong alt-coins. When the market recovers (which it eventually will) you'll profit. All though you may make a loss in the short run the long run is where you should be looking.

According to my experience trading is a difficult thing when the market is red, if you can profit then you must be grateful and of course this never guarantees tomorrow you will profit.

Crypto market is volatile, suitable for short-term investors to guess the opportunity! But in general, the market is quite risky, consider carefully when deciding on investment!

bitmex is the answer for this. anyway still i havent tried this. but my friends are earning very well from bitmex. so i think its a good opportunity in bloodbath to increase your portfolio.

Investment is the best choice, profitable and not risky if you invest in Bitcoin and Ethereum. Currently coin prices are cheap and this is a good opportunity to buy and sell when prices rise.
