Looking at the investments I made in altcoins this time last year they are now at less than half the price.

So the investor lost faith, doesn't think this technology in a coin is worth as much as he was made to believe (surprise surprise).

You may say that It's because it follows bitcoin, but say you need to stop dreaming and come back to reality because BTC is still nearly double the price it was this time last year.

But are we at the bottom? Is the price now the REAL price of an altcoin.

Hopefully we're at the bottom, they've certainly lost a lot of value lately. Bitcoin is the same price as 3-4 months ago, alts down about another 50%.

Most of them are dip but as far as i know in crypto market  there is always bottom for altcoins at crypto market , therefore be carefull while trading and investing.

We are not, there was a lot of possibility to the crypto to go down more than this time. I don't wanna say a lot about that but in fact this is a market with a lot of speculators.
It can be the real price of altcoin but there was a lot of scenario in the crypto. You should remember that so many people are shorting the crypto, manipulated the market and many more. that makes crypto being more difficult to predict.

Although all the coins are indeed very low in price, I don't think this is actually the value. There are still some coins whose value is actually a bubble, so I think maybe we will see a lower price.

I know of a number of coins that did their TGE last year and are now at different positions above their ICO price, some X2, some way higher.
And there are also those which have failed to rise, and fizzled out once listed. Admittedly, some projects take a while to reach it's potential.

Finding a good investment is the key, and never make excuses when you pick a bad project, look for where you went wrong and look for a solution.

The market is in a strong correction, and of course weak ICO projects will soon leave the market. This is the rule of supply and demand, and after a new capital injection into the market the remaining coin will bring huge profits.

I agree with you there however the vast majority of alts have lost more than a years worth of value.

I dumped a lot of non performers last year but kept the following because they seemed to have a lot of potential.

QTUM - disappointed to say the least with current price
Zcoin - hasn't lost too much value
NAV - lost a lot of value but i really like it

The real price depends on the supply and demand of any coin which is irrespective of the bitcoin prices but this year is not good for the crypto currencies and almost all the crypto currencies were lost its price more than 60% but now the price of most coins were getting stabled and swinging at particular range which means we already reached the bottom right so this is time to invest.

Most of them is still overpriced in my opinion consider the state of the project and most of them hasn't release their platform yet while still having big marketcap. But in crypto the price is solely depends on the demand and supply so i guess most people invest in the potential of the project that's why the demand is still a lot.

There are many possibilities for crypto to go down more than this time. crypto will never be stable because crypto is market fluctuations, whose prices are determined by market demand. but there are many scenarios in crypto. You must remember that so many people are shortening crypto, manipulating the market and more. which makes crypto more difficult to predict.

I always wonder why people are so panicked about the price of crypto right now? even though the market is bearish but the price of bitcoin remains more expensive than last year which was only around 3000 USD. It is appropriate for the market to experience a very big correction because the increase that occurred at the end of last year happened to be very outrageous and unreasonable. out of normal limits, and now is the time to normalize the market so that there is no explosion

This is an unhealthy market, altcoin prices can go up and down according to demand and supply, so even if the current price is far from expectations, it is better to hold and keep on monitoring to be able to make good decisions later on the coin.

I don't think we are at the bottom yet, it's only a preparation for the new bottom.  Just prepare yourself, hold till it hurt.

Crypto currency has no value at all, it can only be determined at a specific moment on the basis of the supply-demand relationship. Therefore, judging the price of a crypto currency will always be subjective. For example, I think that the current price of ethereum is much lower than its real value. At the same time, I believe that bitcoin is much overpriced, it can not cost more than six thousand dollars, as it is now. Only the market and time will show the real value of the crypto currency.

I do not really care if they are real or virtual. I can sell at the price I want, so that's not important anymore. Capturing opportunity is the key.

We cant really deny the fact that crypto do take rid of those joy investors which they do just jump in to crypto just to believe that they can be rich overnight which it did result into a bubble yet the hype continues until most or all coins in the market did able to reach out new ATH and suddenly crash out 70-80% of the price which would really leave out those people who invested on peak on total wreckage and I would tell you this that theres no such thing about real price because anytime it might grown gradually or on large price swings.

Maybe it is the real price but who knows when it will rise again. That pump last year is really a great opportunity and it is cause by a massive investors and some who are new to cryptocurrency. I hope there will be more people be aware of this.

Agree with the statement that most of altcoins are overvalued but there are coins that cost their real price and there are some coins the price of which are not correctly valued. And what about Bitcoin to my mind now we are nearly on the bottom, I do not think that the prices will be lower.  

We probably are in the bottom now, there isn't anyone selling btc below the current price. The price still a lot good compare to how much it was before the year started. BTC will be back soon and the preparation of the ETF and regulations are almost done, I think we can then go on with out lives and trade without problems but taxes. The only we will soon think of are the taxes imposed to the holders which most will also try to evade.

Not by a longshot. According to bitcoin, for instance Ethereum is way more down than it should be. But don't worry, if bitcoin will rise, so will altcoins and probably Ethereum too! Let's just sit and see what will happen in the future!

yes, I also expect bitcoin and other crypto prices the price will grow again, and we can be more comfortable in trading as usual, even if the problems are all almost complete and there will be taxes for each bitcoin holder, maybe some people will avoid that, but for me even if it is taxed for every one who holds bitcoin, while there is no one who is harmed, in my opinion it is not a problem.

I don't know, because I just joined the crypto recently. maybe this is an actual Altcoin price but I still hope that it will come back to life as early as 2018.

The price of altcoin at this time is not deserving price for quality altcoin like ethereum. When the negative sentiment is prevalent, market usually over react to prices of coin in the market.

Well, i may say that we have seen this least that we could see for most of the good altcoins, for this year. Although, there are some altcoins that are sh*t coins. That not withstanding, some altcoins that seem to be having their real values now, will definitely moon later. I see a lot of prospects this year. So many of them might even push up high this year than we have had before. I have even see some altcoins with great potentials. I am just try to decipher the wonders that will unfold this year, not just on bitcoin, but also on other altcoins.

Altcoin real price cannot be categorically determined now due to the fluctuations in the current crypto market but in distant time the market will adjust and the final correction has taken place, only by this time that Altcoin prices can perfectly be stated and universally accepted.

I feel that the value of these coins are too volatile, and uncertain, for long term placement into one’s investment portfolio. While their volatility makes them fantastic for day trading, I would not park six figures in there for 3+ years.

This is possible and i started to believe that they say that bullish run is now just a fantasy that this current price is the real demand now that it will never spike off same as last year performance. So lets just hope that the bullish market is true as we have 4 months left of the predictions.

You have a valid point there, maybe this is the real value of altcoin or it maybe less. Hype is the main factor why values of altcoins were rising and that is why FUD also brought them crashing back to earth rapidly.

I made my investment earlier this year, now it's decrease to over 80% from my capital.. I still holding for now and patiently waiting for the right time to come. I can't say that they return to their original price because we all know that crypto currency is very volatile in nature.

Altcoin is currently undergoing development so increased. with this increase will be very capable to generate the actual price and advantageous for many parties. making the real price.

There is no real price when it comes to cryptocurrencies, their prices sway and change depending on the market and the prices they are at right now are the prices that they are in the current bear. It is not about real price, when demand picks up in a coin then the price of the coin picks up which is good. You just have to wait it out

The coins are falling further down. But this will not be the actual  price of the coins for long. Wait a bit and HOLD, the price of the coins are expected to rise at the end of this year.

There are high chances for the coins to hit the bottom, at least for some of them. The bubble might burst for some coins and they might go further down. So we need to be a little more careful while we are trading.

There is no fixed price for crypto because crypto will never be stable because crypto is market fluctuations and the price is determined by market demand. but at the moment I feel, the crypto market is more difficult to predict, because there are so many people shortening crypto, manipulating the market, and many negative issues about crypto, and more.

there is no benchmark in the price category, and if we review the occurrence of market turmoil we agree that bitcoin still has a very high selling value even though the decline continues. as for other indications this is better for market circulation which will separate altcoins that have no progress at all will be eliminated. other benefits, you can buy various altcoins that you think will benefit in the future this is where experience and knowledge are at stake.

I believe we are at a bottom but this is a completely manipulated market.  The alts are whatever the whales are willing to pump them up to to sucker in new meat.  Remember they must pump this up to get paid. 

I also agree with you, that this is the real price of the altcoin, because now the price of the altcoin is not rising and falling again (more stable at the current price).

Every price was on altcoin is the real price.
The cheap price just like now doesn't mean it's the real price and when it's rise again will be the fake price.
It depends on the market, and whatever the price will be always the real price

Those people who invest money for a long time should have steel eggs, that's how another trader needs to be able to control their nerves ... Otherwise, do not make money (((

The real value of crypto currency can be seen only when a large number of people leave the market.While it is very difficult to determine.

I think the first mistake when looking at the bottom is to bunch all of the altcoin prices in one category.
This basically makes the market two things: btc price, then altcoin price.
Isn't that too simple an explanation for such a diverse market?

If you take a look at the top 100 coins, there are actually quite a few who are doing very well when compared to this time last year.
Yes, the entire market is down when compared to last jan., but in the long run, it is much better off than this time last year.
One thing to keep in mind is that the market is really starting to mature.
People are way more cautious about what they invest in so the strong coins with name brand recognition and market penetration have all been doing relatively well.
For the shitty coins, there is not bottom, they will just continue to sink until they disappear forever.

Nobody knows a real price of a new technology. This is why there are a lot of bubbles in the market. So now we can just make money at price jumps and keep a part of it on our wallets a couple of years.

Most of cryptocurrencies are decentralised and price will be varied in current demand. But USDT and TUSD is the standard value peoples are never leave this platform. The real world expecting more profit so they take some risks in all the investment then only we will get good profit in crypto. Most of the beginners are panic in crypto so they are all stay away in anytime but actual market is not depends on new investors.

It is difficult to name a fair price for altcoins, especially those who do not have a finished product. It is unclear how to count.

This happened so many times from beginning of crypto, so it's nothing new! Not investors! Traders lost faith and got out with loss! Investors are the one who believe in crypto and ready to put their money in it for years to come and not to move anything! Who done that in last years, he didn't make mistake! Of course you need to know in which project you are investing your money, if you invest it is some scam coin, yes its lost! But investors dont do that, just traders put their money somewhere based on some shitty shill!

I kinda agree with you that the current altcoin prices more or less reflect their true value. To extrapolate this further, I think this also applies to BTC. People just dump and the pump doesn't not overweigh it.

The way I understand the cryptocurrency market to be you can not say that any price is the real price for altcoin, there is no real price it can go as low as it can go and also goes as high as it can go depending on the driving force behind the market.

I myself cannot say that this is the real price of the altcoins in this recent bearish market or not. In fact, the price of the altcoins are still decreasing and it is still struggling to be better rate. However, so far, the price is fluctuating and it indicates the market is still down. But, to say that this is the real price of the altcoins, I don't think so. I think that the prices can still be better.

Of course there is no definite standard for the price of altcoins, all are worthy and appropriate, but of course all users hope to get profit from altcoins so everyone wants to invest in altcoins.

Altcoin who continue to experience an increase will result in prices that continue to rise.
as for the declining state of affairs will bring many disadvantages. making the price daunting.

I don't think so that the real prices of altcoins is what we see now. The decreased of the crypto market affects the altcoins prices that's why it goes down a lot. And I don't think also that altcoins have real prices, its prices change every seconds so it could only have always be a temporary prices and that is why I always want to join cryptocurrency, sometimes it is high and sometimes it is low but in that way you can do a strategies to have earn a lot of profit.

no, because in my opinion the real altcoin price will be determined at the end of this year, so there is still a possibility that the altcoin price will increase.

price, value and all its development no one can know for sure because here it takes confidence and patience in the investment to take advantage of the opportunities we will get

No, I don't think so, the actual altcoint price is certainly when the market condition has risen, but it cannot be predicted when the market will rise, hopefully by the end of this year there will be a bright spot about the market rise

Let's just say the wise thing is that every product and services are subject to market forces to get the right price. This is what has come to happen to cryptocurrency and the Altcoins in particular after Bitcoin took that tumbling from its ATH of $20,000. Investors confidence has been eroded and many are chickening out of the industry. Bitcoin goes down, altcoins nosedive. That's the way it is here.

I am not sure about this because we don't know how much the normal price of the altcoin and the altcoin price always changes follow with bitcoin price. but today, I see that the altcoin price is trying to increase although it's not too big as before. maybe this is the real price of the altcoin or maybe it's not and I think we can buy any coins we want with the price now. besides that, we don't want to buy the coins when the price starts to increase, right? so use the chance as long as we can.

You need to look at BTC so alts cnat be higher ,but as we see BTC keeps higher 6300 -6200 and alts keep thier prices too and i hope and think we would see bull soon.

I think this isn't fully because of the bitcoin price that are dropping.
There are many things that cause the price of altcoin dropping, some of them is because of panic selling from the token holder that are afraid on loosing too much if the keep on holding their altcoins.

There is no real price in these coins - strongly small trading volumes. When volumes are to a bolshta then the price will be real.

Right there's no real price for these coins.

That depends to the volume, supply and demand of those coins. These seemingly the bottom of altcoins though others are judging the market through the colors by looking at red and green. But sometimes if the market is green percentages aren't giving the real numbers on how much it still needs to recover.

Probably we are closer to the floor price of most altcoins and I also think that majority of them are overprice or overbought, to be honest. If you looked at coinmarketcap, those shitcoins are really pump hard, its like every week there's one coins that its going to be pump artificially and then a massive drop on the next couple of days.

So we might be witnessing altcoins like Ethereum really bottoming, but there will be shitcoins that is being pumped everyday. And as long as there are coins born every minutes, the process will go on.

Bitcoin price has a lot of things to do with the altcoin price at the moment. A whole lot of them have hit their bottom, we can see some bullish divergence on most of them and then we can even see some already trying to make some solid attempt and as far as I am concerned, the only way they can easily start getting flooded with new money is if the btc market tends to move sideways for a while which is what I am going to be expecting in coming weeks anyway, but nothing is guarantee, because a quick move downward for bitcoin can easily affect the rest of the altcoins.

Well, it is a good thing you said HOPE! So far, the only way we may be able to get to see the altcoins doing much in price is to see bitcoin really doing some good bounce to the upper side and then consolidating sideways for a while even though it might end up not moving up much. The altcoins are actually looking for a way to bounce and so far they seem suppressed by bitcoin movement and because of that, smart moneys are not ready to start participating.

If you gonna see in the market altcoins price you gonna see now is not's their real price.Because lots of altcoins from now has already fallen its price And not already recovering.

There is some misperception that crypto was made for investment, actually its wrong, crypto is supposed to become the currency, but all ICO now focusing on become an investment, I don't think the price now is at the bottom, I personally see the worse yet to come, the market few times showing a positive movement but it end up being dragged back

No. I don't that the low price that we were seeing is the real price of alternate coins. It's not even near its real price. Alternate coins appreciate overtime and it should have a higher price than what's on the market today. This is just a result of big investors that already sold their coin and also there are thousands of bots that were trying to ruin the price of a coin. Exchanges should block those bots because it can ruin crypto in the long run.

No, I think the current altcoint price is not the actual price, now the altcoint price is still low, because the market situation is also not normal, so if you are going to buy Altcoint buy now and invest your altcoint

No one understands a genuine cost of the brand new technologies. For this reason, there are plenty associated with pockets on the market. Therefore right now we are able to simply earn money from cost leaps as well as maintain part of this upon the purses a few years.

I look at the graphs and think the coins should still grow. I am waiting for the beginning of winter to understand how to continue trading. Let's see, I expect 80% growth.

Yeah I think price in this market reflect true value, only coin that have good technology can survive, some time we need bear market to remove trash coin  :-\

   The Crazy market movement for the past few month give us the idea to look back the price on the same period as of last year, yes, we may consider that we are on the Bottom but on some coins only, we've seen the big drop on almost all Crypto or ALT coin price value but somehow it recover fast, market correction always follow after the market glitz.market stability are more visible now on the thread if we can have time for our own market review, we can see some of this coin even goes up the unprecedented level on the market.

Altcoins is still unstable in term of price as the price of it will rise high and also drop very deep. The price currently also is at the bottom but It will rise and thus it is not a real price. Not like bitcoin that have the range and stable price.

Altcoins (https://coincodex.com) got massacred during the last few months. A lot of them were way overpriced (like 90% of them) but coins like Ethereum (https://coincodex.com/crypto/ethereum/) are at a very good buy price right now I think.

Who bought the coins when they are on the peak price have more loss. Just normal rule of an investment buy when low and sell when high. Many coins have really good growth over the time. Need to continue buy and sell whenever we see opportunity  :D

No one no which price is real.
And if someone knows, they will not disclose this information

It's hard to know the bottom for most of the altcoins, except of course you're a trader with knowledge of technical analysis that helps you know the support point. Then you can know historically the lowest prices it can get to

for the price of bitcoin to fall can be a factor and influence, but the biggest problem is that altcoins that are in a low position and many people sell in panic sell that is a factor that causes the price of altcoin to be lower, I think it's a thing that I feel is reasonable for cryptocurrency .

I think price not stable yet becouse we still watch correction and bear market,real price for altcoins some will change,we not have stable market and prices for now everithing who have some good % of coins can manipulate this altcoins prices and this current promlem i think.

when looking at the market, I see that this is not the actual price, because many altcoins are corrected to above 80% and far below the price of ico

for me when the market is a reality and it's a real price, we can know when a coin from the ICO project listing in a market the price will go down because the interest in the coin is very low and that's the real price.

For investment, in the last month I chose ICO. Because there are much cheaper tokens with new technologies (the AVAILCOM project).

I also think so, I'm sure the market will go back up only takes time. if only a lot of positive news is circulating, I'm sure the market will be easier to rise because crypto is very sensitive to bad or good news because it greatly affects the investor's mentality.

Bitcoin investment is the best and some altcoins potential. Very good projects available. But finding an ICO that will much earn these days is difficult, I continue to research without giving up.

In my opinion, I think there are still room for growth in many different altcoins you may not know it but maybe later this year you will just see the markets booming with profits since there are many rumors.

No this is not the real price of altcoins because the projects devs do not care about long term they just want to get their eth and bitcoin and then dump the project.

The choice is incessantly yours, hence, don’t invest what you can not afford to lose, and don’t limit your investment till the risk allowance, go with your understanding of the project and market trends till you fully grasp the innate feel and fluctuations of the chosen cryptocurrency along with its vision, belief and decisive purpose it is longing to serve.

Most of the Altcoins are now at the dip price. you should buy some coins with high potentials and hold them for long-term.

The market now isn't healthy so it's high time we look forward to the recovery of the market. Most altcoins are at their dip price now so you need to hold it for sometime before selling it.

I think many altcoins will lose value forever, there are a lot of scammers among all this, and some projects are burnt because many teams after the collection of money stop working and start putting off the release of platforms and so on, but even some projects just turn out to be unnecessary

I think that at the moment, the price for coins is more or less favorable and it will be increasing. I think that in the nearest future, the price will be bigger thats why we need to buy coins now

Most altcoins have not attained their real price, whereas there are some that are over hyped. There are some altcoins that are just growing and owing to the fact that bitcoin has been in existence for quite some time, so the comparison might not be that adequate. Although, the altcoin i can say seem to have their real values and are still growing are Ethereum and others like Stellar.
