Tokens Continue to Take a Hit: is SEC Preparing to Target Crypto Projects?

https://www.ccn.com/tokens-continue-to-take-a-hit-is-sec-preparing-to-target-crypto-projects/

Let's discuss!

So what's the relation of your title to the content? There's none dude. The current situation of the market went on the same trend just last year, and the price didn't go up as everyone expected for this year. Some of my friends also told me this before. BTCs price will not be the same as last year. It will go down to 5.5K and resist some more then go back to 6k before the year ends. yada yada. and the list just goes on.

It's normal don't worry almost a year we all suffering for the bitcoin price falling down their price value, nothing new for this because for me 2018 is bitcoin correction hoping early next year bitcoin will moves in good condition.

Indeed, that price fluctuations today wasn't that bad compared of what happened last middle months of 2017. The situations is not worst yet, we still have more challenging times to move forward with btc and if trading will always be our ways to do it, then continue and don't give up holding more coins. If we will see the price is recovering before next year until such time the last days of 2018 must perform surprising demands, so be it.

Don't panic, even though this is difficult. this has happened several times this year. I think it's time to buy and give a positive response. because panic doesn't make the market better

This moment most of the investors are afraid but day traders are really happy to celebrate in this situation. Because of continuous dump in quickly so we should support Bitcoin then only it will grow well at quick period. All the peoples are said it will dump again so be patient and buy at right time is the good move for all the crypto investors.

Maybe black Friday preparations started too early as people want to spoil their loved ones with some gifts but nevertheless this is not the first time prices have dipped....but am suspecting this could be linked with the Binance hack and people are just playing it safe at the moment and moving their money where it's safe.

I don't know what you say, but I feel this is very hard time for us. Hard fork create many poor people and take decisions to leave crypto. That is what happen and maybe soon we all will go and start new life out side crypto market. Face it and cut loss all your activity and take vacation. Just suggestion you need to write topic that have relation with your post, make me stress read it.

I think the falling price of bitcoin will have bad result simply because many people will get panic but I think it is a good result to all people who will invest now. The falling price of bitcoin is totally bad because many people think that it is the end of bitcoin even though it is not. But, do you think it is the end bitcoin? or do you think bitcoin will keep on falling down?

Price will continue to move up and down as it react to the market. There any is nothing much to worry about. If you are so scared about the fall, you can sell off and wait for the jump. This has nothing to do with SEC.

Here we go again, I think the question in the above has no connection with the link stated in the above mentioned. Besides, you don't need to be worry if Bitcoin goes down to 5k$ almost, In fact, you must rejoice instead of panicking about the price. You should buy and take the chance for it actually, this is a good sign actually.

I actually have no idea why BTC tanked around $1000 today.

In the past there was usually some reason like hacked exchange or ETF rejection/delay or China ban.

After research I can only come up with 2 reasons. First one was some over leveraged longs on OKEx, basically similiar to what happened a few months ago with that half a billion liquidated position.

Second one is Craig Wright saying he really is Satoshi and he will sell all his BTC to fund miners to mine SV instead of ABC and SV.

I think the former makes more sense to me.

It's hilarious to see how people react if the cryptocurrency market is in the bearish phase and bullish phase.

If the market is in the bullish trend, people will come to beg and regret because they do not bought their favorite crypto when it was cheap. If the bearish market comes, lots of people are now in panicking because their portfolio is in a bloodbath which leads them to a unplanned selling. ;D

Now we have to keep all the fears and panicness away from our mind. Because we have suffered this situation sseveral times before this year. So now we have to stay calm and hold the coins that are purchased.

Bitcoin's price going down same with other altcoins maybe they follow the price of bitcoin's condition and they balancing the price of every coins in the market. I think that they controlling the price of all famous altcoins.

In one day, my investment portfolio lost 20%, it is very sad. I did not think that Bitcoin would fall below $ 6000, but it happened. Feel the next bottom. I hope that the price will not go below

It is clearly for someone or people that want to make the people scared and get out of the market immediately because another bull run would start again.

The price of bitcoin is hard to explain why this is happening I lost 200$ investing from it last week until Know i dont expect this will happen so need to take a break to trade again.

Are you high bro ? i mean, look at us right now. The market turned into shit and a lot of peoples are losing their investment, and you said bull run would start again ?
what SEC did was testing our bottom-line by suing decentralized exchange as a test, and in the end We were losing it because Etherdelta paid the penalty.

It is scary but if you have been in the market in the last year you have experienced such things a lot , I think bitcoin would fall more because of the new miner that has a better mining hash with almost same price , I believe bitcoin is going to 4000 $ channel soon .

I completely agree with you, market is already in downtrend for several months and was in consolidation phase for a long time, now again it has started going down since yesterday, I think this is to panic investors by big whales, I think this is the right time to buy, market may bounce soon or later.
Market makers are very clever they always hit the market in critical times, be aware and take decision after calculating all your risk.

Bitcoin pricing is move forward and downward in every year so your thought is look like same. But If you have good knowledge in crypto skills you should never says it will reach 4k USD soon. Because market is little stable know so if you think it will move downward you should not aware in crypto technology. I hope all the investors are understand the Bitcoin potential soon.

In winter all investors were waiting for the crypto-currency spring, but it never came)) now all investors are trying to maintain composure and calmness. Bitcoin, what are you doing? I'm from a number of patient, but I feel that the fall of bitcoin will drag on for a year.

It will come, bitcoin price will eventually become better, but not for now, for now the market still very chaotic, all of the expert speculation is not correct at all, I also feel that the price is going to stay stagnant like this until the end of the year, several good news still unable making bitcoin out of the bear market, so its a bit frustrating situation for crypto investors and with this SEC news, it could create a worse situation

It may grow up in 2019 but not this year! However, it is a good sign that we need to buy bitcoin today. 5500 is a great price to buy. Imagine, it may become 20000 USD in the future or above once it breaks the large amount of resistance level. I assume that we will become successful if we invest in cryptocurrency today.

we as traders do not think negatively, always think ahead in the future, always believe that the world of commerce will definitely need a safe and fast exchange tool that cannot be controlled by any country, so bitcoin is very suitable to be the future currency , if something like this happens, then the price will certainly be stable and will rise ...

A lot of people for now maybe only think when bitcoin can increased and wouldn't ever think about future currency. If me at least bitcoin can increased it's value and can be adopted by a lot of county i will make it as bonus.

The SEC will be doing its job and I do not believe this is due to the fall in prices


this reminds me of the times that china dominated the crypto world, constantly had sudden increases and sudden price falls


Bitcoin Current  price: $5 603


Bitcoin’s Breakdown Will Take ‘Weeks, If Not Months’ to Rebound, Says Fundstrat Analyst (https://cointelegraph.com/news/bitcoins-breakdown-will-take-weeks-if-not-months-to-rebound-says-fundstrat-analyst)

when the price of bitcoin falls, analysts begin to make very pessimistic predictions


I agree and if the price of bitcoin in 5 years is $40,000 then people who buy today will have reasons to go on vacation in the Bahamas

I think this is a normal specifics of the market at the moment. the market is now stable but it will still go up or down over time...God knows that. we hope for the growth of bitcoin and the market as a whole)

Yes bitcoin price is reducing alarming rates. I don't know what can I do... Many experts assured me November market will recovery but nothing can happen? What can I do?

Where did you hear that alarm? In your head? I don't know what kind of experts made any guarantees to you, but who ever guarantee anything in crypto is a crazy person, and you shouldn't trust them.
What can you do? Funny question to ask, forum is full with good advices, so you should start to read more while you wait bitcoin price to grow again, that's one more good advice.

Is just a price drop, as i heard on TV some foundation had get some large amount of bitcoin by buying with fiat money and hold it for some time and now tried to lose their trace and sell bitcoin on market and as i heard they withdraw money to another persons and after they will get commission.

According to me, big whales are manipulating Bitcoin price. They are the big gamer of crypto market. But I trust on Bitcoin and price will increase very soon.

The fact that one single individual or a few individuals have the ability to crash the market and bring it to it's knees says a lot about the crypto space in general and this is one of the reasons the SEC site flagrant market manipulations as a reason for not approving Bitcoin ETF applications. The fact that a few people can put the investments of several others into complete jeopardy is a cause for worry.

The crash market has been happening ever since many makes money and many ran out of the market which are the newbies who never understood the market. When I was a NEWBIES I was at the same position seeing the whole bearish market. I keep understanding without having to get scared about it.

Well, the timing of the SEC to review some crypto related  projects is not good while the crypto currency prices plunged to below $6,000. This is not good as it will create additional FUD to the crypto users making them the market performance to become worst, the worst part is if they will rejet the ETF again in which everybody are expecting that it will trigger the market to become bullish if will be approve.

Well I think you are quite overthinking. There might not be such association as you are making between these two elements. Keep going with good spirit and don’t lose control.

SEC is not doing anything, all I see right now is the whales trying to usher in more ground for the institutional investors to get in, by scaring away the weak hands since that is what they have always wanted. So in a way, it will only take those with balls and the long term focus to not get shaken by some of the things being done by these people. Whichever way, I only see this avenue as the market trying to give a good chance to at least manage to get to pick bitcoin at a much lower price.

Even though there has been a lot of anticipation for a bull run before the end of the year, nothing is still impossible. We just wait and see.

I don't think the price of bitcoin will be the same as last year he will continue to fall maybe below 5k.
maybe he will go back up at the end of next year or another two years, which obviously will be very lethargic this year.

It is difficult to understand why in just a single twink we suddenly saw like this.  Such huge fall really makes people's mind to think negatives and we can't blame to do have it.  In fact,  only strong believer will stay forever and doubtful individuals will leave and loss. We have tested our trust again and yet, we need to survive and conquer our worries.

I know a lot of people think that fake satoshi is selling his BTC to fund his BCH SV coin but I don't think it's related to that.

What happened most likely was that too many people assumed that since November is normally bullish for BTC they all went long on margin or on Bitmex and basically some large whale started a domino effect when the $6000 and $5800 yearly support broke.

Basically people either were margin called, or stops were hit or they set sell-stops below $6000 and basically there was a huge lack of demand and huge supply hence why price went down so fast and so far.

They only look at the organizers, but they can not come to it. They can not manage such anonymous transactions. Our market should only be for decentralization and there should be no government or legal involvement.

Yes, I don't know why people always blame the Satoshi, why can't we consider that whales are maunplating the market in order to grab the Bitcoin at a low price. Whales will easily spread the negative news about the Bitcoin and start dumping the Bitcoin to lower value in order to grab them. This is completely market trick by the whales.

bitcoin price is not stable, it always volatile so we can't predict but definitely price will increase.

It's probably whales indeed playing that started this decline. We all know how easy it would be for them to cause a snowball effect when they stage what would seem to be a sell off. And i agree also that stop losses have bet met with people not actively selling their btcs. As of now we have a new yearly all time low. Who knows, whales are probably waiting for this to happen.

I think there might be something more to this than just Craig and Jihan and roger fighting. I mean people were expecting some sort of bull run by now and instead we are going backwards instead of high. I think people did not expected anything like this at all but we are so scared of anything going wrong at this moment that people literally sold at cheaper prices because they believed the price would go even further down. We still don't know if it will go even further down.

I do not like it when other coins fall though, I mean I understand why bitcoin went lower because some people sold bitcoin but at least it should have made altcoins go higher, they will be valued higher compared to bitcoin since bitcoin lost value, but all of it lost value for some reason. People sold bitcoins, not ethereum, not ripple, not dash, but all of them lost value for no apparent reason at all.

These seem reasonable causes but I wonder, and this point is intertwined and relevant to your last point, if it's also got to do with the fact that miners experience a mining crisis with more and more inefficient mining?

i think speculators now take action sell the rumor and buy on fact.on next week swiss ETP trading launched and next month december 12nd BAKKT also launched.so they make drama to take lowest price before both of that happen.

Most of the experts believed that we are still in the middle of bearish trend that is why many people are still in doubt and decided to wait for the bull run in which its looks like just a fantasy now and with the SEC on the move to clean up some questionable crypto related projects then i don't know if this will add on the miseries that the Bitcoin market is enduring now but i believed that Bitcoin will surpass these all as it has been in these difficult situations before.

Come on bitcoin,go go go pump now l can't wait to see the bullrun coming.And everyone will rejoice to multiply all our profit.Even though bitcoin have no good result now l believe its coming soon becoming expensive.

the situation is getting worse and we should be able to deal with it with calm. I am sure there has been a lot of panic because the price of Bitcoin has dropped very significantly. Investors will lose their assets if they sell at this time, they can try to be patient and sell it when the price increases again. However, the risk is that when prices do not increase they will experience much greater losses.

No one has the clue of this falling market.  Different people have different point of view regarding the bear market reasons, there is no perfect answer for it. Some are saying the price is down as the future contract is ending while few believes that bitcoin will fall more as it is just a bubble. We need to wait and survive this bear market with patience.

Don't expect that much cause we don't evenly knew when it come or it doesn't come to us. Our market still unpredictable and Bull run seems to be surprising but its something difficult to have it for this year and yet, we are still in way fighting bear season.

The same situation happened back in 2013 or so, and I am doing exactly what I did back then. Just waiting, just reading, nothing more. Because I know BTC has the potential to "make it again". True, Investors are losing a significant value of money but if they are smart enough they will do the same. (I can't imagine the face of someone who invested all his retirement funds in cryptos back in 2017 :/)

I got shocked today when I woke up , Going down and downer everyday , really what is happening! Th market volume had been decreased redicusely , I'm start thinking that it was all just a bubble that is bursting slowly , I don't know If i hold or not ?!

yes, i like that too, even i sell some bitcoin that i have, and some eth me to secure the assets that i have. well, maybe the price of bitcoin, and eth will rise again, but I think it will still get better when you are patient. well, i am the type of person who is impatient.

Just like a gamble just wins and loses, we do not just dump the scenes as long as we can go back and return the previous price just wait because when the price drops it will rise too.

hope that is very important with no hope we will not be able to get what we dream of, so an expectation is important.
and most importantly, we must always wait until bitcoin experiences a high price increase

There are still good sides to this story. In peoples minds the price of all time high is 20 thousand dollars which shows and proves that it is actually doable. Nobody knows if bitcoin can ever reach 60 thousand dollars one day but everyone knows it can reach 20 thousand dollars because it once did. Now considering this fact there is still hope in peoples minds that the price will reach 20 thousand dollars one day.

Would you rather be at 15 thousand dollars right now and going to 20 thousand dollars from a profit stand point or would you rather get bitcoin at these prices and go to 20 thousand dollar from here? I would prefer going from here even if I had no bitcoins because that would show a bigger impact and interest for bitcoin that going from 15 thousand to 20 thousand. That is why I am hoping we will see an increase, that would help us a lot.

but we also have to be realistic that the current conditions in the market are indeed in a bad condition, the price will not improve if nothing surprising comes, excessive hope will only make you panic, the current price decline occurs because selling panic happens massively, because the prices that occur differ greatly from their high hope/expectation

Well, I guess by now, a lot of people should have gotten used to this. This is not something I expect anyone to be worried about to the least, considering the fact that whatever has made a lot of people dump out of panic, that is pretty much their own cup of tea as they are basically doing what the whales and institutions want them to do.

I am actually looking forward to the day where the market will be less speculative, and any whale will actually get burned instead. For me, I will say, no one should be deceived by anything going on right now but should be looking at it as a means to accumulate more which is the most important as far as I am concerned.

Is it not always obvious people will always get to find someone to blame even when the whole blaming game looks absurd and ridiculous to think of in the first place? Sure, there are obvious reasons to say there are market manipulators, but they will not be manipulating the market, if they know for some good reasons there are weak hands in the market who will want to be busy selling for loss.

That is always going to end up being their target, to keep making money off the dumb ones and the dumb ones busy playing all the time into their trap.

I do not think they will be able to come back and negotiate with us again. This is a very difficult market to control. It now seems that the organizers manipulated all the altcoins. It is very difficult for the SEC to protect us.

As a result of the continuous decline in market conditions, perhaps this has resulted in the large number of other bitcoin / crypto users feeling exhausted in dealing with it. As a result of the market price never recovering, the presence of such conditions of course can saturate / bore/emotion for most users. For people who cannot control their emotions, there's a high probability that they have sold their virtual currency, and usually people like them don't care about the price. Even if we study more deeply, actually what they do can cause a loss of some of their money.

Bulls make money, bears make money, pigs get slaughtered. That's how it is and how it has always been.
What does it mean? People with a strategy prevail. Some are permabullish and hold, buy more when the market is crashing, are ready to wait for another bull run for years. They are aiming to get more cryptos at all points. Bears short, they sell at the smallest jumps and take profits, even small ones, they don't want to hold cryptocurrencies and prefer fiat, so they look for ways of making more fiat.
Pigs buy when others are buying, because they heard that somebody became a bitcoin millionaire or that their friend made a lot of money in 1 year without having to work at all.
They don't focus on the asset or on managing it, they focus on future profits and the things they'll be able to buy.

That's what's happening with the price. Pigs are selling below their entry levels.

BTC goes down because high supply low demand, that's the explanation. Because what no one can give you the right answer everything is only prediction. But I can't see connection between your title and post. Are you bot? because if yes please stop it or I'll report you.

Find a new and interesting exchange. I was watching their foresact. It's quite real. So will also start to follow their news. Waiting for their start.
I quite like their thinking - Velvet. Exchange is a centralized platform for trading of digital financial assets. We don’t create something new — we just do it better.

https://medium.com/velvet-exchange/the-forecast-for-the-week-of-cryptocurrency-pairs-btc-usd-eth-usd-xrp-usd-november-12-18-f4af6d7aef6d (https://medium.com/velvet-exchange/the-forecast-for-the-week-of-cryptocurrency-pairs-btc-usd-eth-usd-xrp-usd-november-12-18-f4af6d7aef6d)

BTC is having a difficult time. Bitcoin prices have dropped dramatically and that has made a lot of chaos happen.
Many people experience panic and they end up selling Bitcoin that they have is much cheaper than when they bought it.
This is a difficult condition and we must be fully prepared to face situations that might occur next.

   It`s not just up to Bitcoin, other crypto-currencies suffer from loss too. Money is going away from crypto-currncies, it`s nothing
strange, how it goes away from it with same path it will go back.
   Conditions are hard in this moment now, it`s for what we should have been prepared already. I am prepared for holding and that`s
my only plan, to stay strong no matter how dip price goes down this time.

Velvet exchange is not fully functioning yet, let's see what happens next. You can watch the demo, it looks very nice, in fact, let's wait for the development to the full functional. What else do they want to bring to the table?

Yeah this is like it. Overthinking might take you under confusion hill and you could lose the way that may lead you to success. Keep things easy and don’t mix them up it will create complexity.

Bitcoin price is no surprise to some of us expecting it to be like this. Since the beginning of the year, a lot of predictions gas been going on. Some says it will go to 20k, some says it will go 50k while some predicted that it will go below 6k. Right now, BTC has gone below 5k. We might stay at 4k for months before making any movement to the top.

Well, I think this is something comparable to last year's increase. if last year the price of bitcoin rose very high, and attracted so much attention, then this year the price of bitcoin returned to its origin.

Not likely returned yet, bitcoin still stable around $4.5k. For those who still believe with bitcoin, ETF and BAKKT would be the good news for bitcoin on next month and next year. Who knows bitcoin might be rise to $40k on next year?

The thing is that it takes being knowledgeable to be able to get used to, which is one thing a lot of people, actually are not. Take a look at the mentality a lot of people brought into this space initially, with the media calling all sorts of moon, and then seeing people buying into the FOMO with the promises of a market that is going to grow out of nothing but greed.

Nothing warranted that growth except people who just wanted to get rich overnight, and lo and behold, the whales took advantage of that and here we are now with them wallowing in their fear of what tomorrow holds or selling out of panic. Until they get used to the fact like you said by trying to understand the long term potential of what they have in their hands before they will know what to always do appropriately.

I agree, look at the January prices and today's prices

January:

BTC = $20.000

XRP = $3

ETH = $1300

today's prices:

BTC = $4500

XRP = $0,44

ETH = $134

The most important question is: Will most altcoins recover their previous value? in January ETH reached $1300 and had a Market Cap of $130 billion dollars, now has a Market Cap of 13 billion dollars, this is a very big fall, and with the regulations and with many cases of Scam ICO the chance to see $1300 and a Market Cap of $130 billion dollars are very small. In the case of bitcoin things are still more possible, but the altcoins can have a very bad destiny


truth


well, this is a very dangerous market and from what I could observe, knowing the right time to get in and out is the most important thing that people should know.


I agree

It is going even further down. When the first wave hit us it went from 6 thousands to 5 thousands and that was horrible and we all had a panic and fear of what happened because not only did the price fell but also it showed how weak our hands were holding bitcoin.

Now it dropped again to 4 thousands this time and we are really scared, not because bitcoin won't go up one day, I am pretty sure bitcoin will be 20 thousand dollars one day eventually but this showed how weak we are against a whale who decided to sell his coins to make some money for himself and his project.

It is not normal that bitcoin could be manipulated this way by a semi-rich person, if a hedge fund of billions of dollars decides to change stuff up in bitcoin market we wouldn't be capable of stopping them at all.

The certain truth about this whole thing is that only the investors that have chosen to worry will end up worrying for nothing. What is there to worry about actually? The fact that the market is giving more chance for the smart ones to invest and hold for the long run, or the fact that trends will always change and downtrend, just like uptrend will not be there forever, without at least, getting to see the two interchange once in a while. Everything right now is an opportunity for those who want to take it, and if you end up not taking it, it is basically just your own decision to make.

No one can really exactly predict what will be the future ahead, though there's still a lots of possibilities that this fall will continue and can touched 3k$ level, we still need to look forward if those big news will reflect to investors, if new big investors will go and invest against the whales and make the
market be green again, even small players if there's a lots of willing to hold and wait it will make the price to rise back.

I was shocked myself and I was actually expecting a possible bounce at the $5k region but with the way things are going right now, there is a possibility of seeing this market going as low as $3k, which is something I am really looking forward to anyway.

Nonetheless, what the whales and institutions want you to see is that the bubble has busted and there is no hope any more, and only if you get carried away by that mentality that you will certainly get affected by the movement of the market right now. There is a lot that would be happening positively later on, and I am sure the institutions want to enter at a very good price before then, so one way or the other; we just got to see how far they really want to be going with this.

In most cases it depends on how you want to actually see that reality. Do you want to be seeing a bad one or a market with an opportunity ? So you see, reality can always come in different ways but that would be dependent on how you have your whole goal planned out.

Yes, the market condition may be a bad one for some people now, based on where they got into the market, but at the same time, I really do not see it as anything bad for those who are smart enough to know that this is a market with a great opportunity to be investing more for the long term. It all depends on you as an individual.

the impact of ICO which often causes problems and scams affects crypto in general, including BTC and ETH. if this continues without the awareness of new ICO makers that can damage the cryptographic climate, crypto will be worse off and difficult to rise because investor confidence has begun to disappear

I have heard this being brought up by many crypto investors and gurus and the prevailing thought among them was that Bitcoin is the safest store of value if you want to remain in cryptos. Nobody is going to create laws for altcoins. Nobody is going to make sure you can buy coffee with dogecoin or litecoin. All laws and all adoption will be built for Bitcoin first and if it does fine then it will be extended to altcoins.

ICO has nothing to do with bitcoin price here though ETH may be get affected a little but it is due to the FUD that bitcoin price is falling. If this FUD ends you will see a sudden and massive increase of prices and that's the start of bull run but i don't know if it will hit this year i highly doubt that.

I think ico contributed to the current falling and that is because many investors are not investing into cryptocurrencies market again because of how there are being scam through icos.  I believe that if ico can be regulated the cryptocurrencies market will have a boast. What ever move fund from the market affect bitcoin and ethereum.

You are right. Additionally, only really rich people can make millions and billions even during the bearish market. Unfortunately, the majority of the traders are people, who do not know up to the end their business.

I think this is normal, then the four-year cycle is the same, so there's no need to worry too much, my advice, follow the plot, don't fight it, all will be beautiful in time, but IMHO, why the circle like this (BTC down) must be happened now, i need to do someting with more money this years :(

it's true that as far as I know ICO has no effect on the price of bitcoin, because most of the influence of ICO is ethereum because the ethhereum platfrom is the biggest in the crypto world

Volatility is happening, nothing strange. But it looks like everyone is forgetting about volatility when the price is on rise and when dump starts everything is questioning what is going on.
Bitcoin price will not always be on your favour and there will be times when you will face possible loss. You just have to be flexible enough so that you can adjust the market and react properly otherwise it might turn that Bitcoin isn't the right choice for you.

So does not that give you an incentive to invest in the market right now when the boom is thought of at head? It really does and I believe that if you invest in the right asset in the right time, the coincidence will be worth a lot in future.

But listen how can you work freely and legally if no government or legal offices aren’t involved. For smooth working of crop in a country, government must legalize it else you would be counted as criminal.

The bitcoin price is really high on volatility and it is really always happening in a repetitive way. So there is no reason for being afraid with regards to the bitcoin price that is now experiencing a huge dip, because anytime bitcoin price will rise up high without any prior notice because it is decentralized.

based in bitcoin price history, this downward happen every year.so it just a normal cycle in crypto market.each years has different issu why price down alot.so personally i would not affraid with this.

I do not think that the price changes in the market surprise us a lot. Unfortunately, we are used to the volatility of the tokens and the main crypto, Bitcoin. Hope, that soon, these prices will go up.

Yes I really agree with your opinion. Bitcoin has a circulation of price movements at all times. If it is currently experiencing a decline, it means we must try to be patient. I am sure there will be an increase and that is something that is commonplace. We only need the right momentum to be able to take advantage of every situation and condition. Bitcoin prices have volatility and this is a test to success !!

Lol. I would not doubt that. The market brought in greedy hands into the market last year, and now trying to scare out those greedy hands this year, which is what they will do until they are sure the last of them are out. People should understand that what the market players want them to think is there is no hope, and the truth of it all is that they are accumulating the dips as we speak, and possibly just tapping the price down the more until there is no more sellers.

If you allow yourself to get played instead of trying to accumulate when the market is down and be patient for the long term, then, you will end up getting a lot more screwed eventually when the market recovers.

Bitcoin price already dropped out same with ethereum with other trader says that they loss for a huge funds for investing and trusting for bitcoin and other traders switch to XRP or ripple coins so it overtake top2 from ethereum.

yes indeed at this time bitcoin is dropping and falling dramatically even the price is not unexpectedly thought to be that low. I think the XRP coin has the potential to rise at the end of this year because it has shifted the ether from marketcap coins.

we must know that bitcoin has an ever-changing and volatile price, so the price of bitcoin will definitely go up and down, all we have to do when the price goes down is to stay calm and patient because it will definitely recover again

a very unpleasant thing is happening on the BCH and it affects the bitcoin price, so the bitcoin price falls and causes the price of all crypto currencies to fall.

Of course, the main reason why a lot of people tend to panic is because they keep approaching the market without a plan, without knowledge of how to even handle themselves in the market and all they do is to keep doing things blindly. Until they realize the need to learn and be able to use that knowledge to formulate a strategy and always develop a trading plan at every point in time, it will be a bit hard for them to know what they should be doing. What is happening now either as an investor or a trader is just a bearish market, but there is always a time to buy and a time to sell, which for now, is a time to be looking into buying.

The price of bitcoin is indeed down and unstable so that many people get a surprise with every second, irregular heart exercises so we must be able to follow it without having to get sick and panic. Because of intrigue and want to drop so that bitcoin is affected and dropped, but this will definitely come back and peak again.

What caused so much drop in price for bitcoin in so short time, almost 3000 $ drop?

they are playing a big game.

they will make bitcoin 2000s. after that, they will collect btc from here. and they will seel again from 10ks.

There should be many who are collecting bitcoin right now because they see an affordable value, of course, there are many who survive by holding it, so it is difficult to obtain. Various assumptions about bitcoin but this still hopes that bitcoin continues to grow and has more valuable value.

Really don't know what to think, but yes is possible bitcoin will grow a lot next year.

Bitcoin prices fell due to the impact of hashrate wars that occurred against the stronghold of Jihan Wu and Rogers Ver, which resulted in the price of bitcoin falling, because they bitcoin prices fell this deep.

be calm and dont panic, bitcoins is decreasing because of the low demand from people but once the demand for it rise again then bitcoin will surely hype up anytime soon now

Yesterday it was around $4,000 and now lost -$300 quickly. The whales are still pushing the price down so they can accumulate more. We need to be patient and see if the test is already done but if not, hold on. We are near to this whole year of bear market and after this we've got to be celebrating on how we are able to survive another bear trend.

The 4000 support are not strong enough to hold the price, maybe we will see btc price will be around 3500-3700 level at this week. To be honest I still wait & see how the market are gonna be by the end of this month, we all hope that the green will be coming at this field but let enjoy this for awhile.

Bitcoin price is often fluctuating and always unstable at the end of year. It is normal when the price decreases sharply, but you should believe that the Bitcoin price will recover after this reduce.

 it's possible bitcoin will grow a lot in 2020 i think

Price if bitcoin has consistently gone to the downward direction. And it is happening since form the beginning of this year. But according to the time, it's not the first when bitcoin has falling like this. As per the chart when BTC lose its value after that it comes with bounce back.

Don't skip the 2019, we're not yet there but you are moving forward to another year.

There are even more potential surprises that awaits us next year. Some big institutions announced that they will starting to get involved with crypto's so that's one big thing for next year.

what you convey is very true before investing in crypto currencies we must understand and understand all the risks that we will get in investing, the development of the market and the crypto currency in my opinion depends on the investor itself

Is ETF approved for bitcoin? If yes is already starting exchange?

Now the whole cryptocurrency including Bitcoin is going through very difficult times. I think that the beginning of growth will be in 2019

We do see it now that bitcoin is on that level. It excites me to think on what's going to be the end of this year. We do hope that this year will see some quick growth just like last year. It only take few weeks last year for bitcoin to reach $20,000. This won't happen but it can happen for the quick recovery.

I do not forget to feel the btc price up to $ 20000 which is when I am most satisfied with the digital money market we always expect that we always get a lot of profit from the market investment number

BTC is still in a correction alongwith the entire crypto market. It has happened to BTC many times in previous years too so hopefully it will recover and be at new highs in 2019.

I don't know what makes these people think of many things about bitcoin when its starting to correct.

Everything that goes up should go down and vice versa. A simple logic would answer that and when the price goes up, you'll never hear them ask why?

The fact that this correction is clear to everyone is unclear how this will end and how it will be corrected. What now has a significant impact in order to change everything and everyone in an instant.

Yes, I also believe that Ripple can grow more than the other currencies. Many banks are ready to invest in XRP and they already do it. As for Bitcoin, it will also remain the leader whatever happens.

So a 90% drop from the ATH is a correction now? What's a bear market for you guys then?

I do love Bitcoin and hold it, but I do not believe that it will go to touch the 20 thousand top again. maybe it can happen, but not earlier than in 2019 mid. The market capitalization should grow.

Bitcoin prices fell because maybe the influence of the war on Bchsv and Bchabc which had an impact on the price of bitcoin fell to this extent, when there was no hashrate war the price of bitcoin did not fall like this.

BCH hardfork is one of the reason for this much dump in the market. But real reason is unknown and whales are create the big manipulation in this year. I think next year future is bright so we should turn off our internet and stay away in market active. May be end of the year market is moving forward.

Regardless of the reasons for this months big selloff, the fact remains that the bear market is not over yet and investors will have to wait longer for the next bull.

Bitcoin price was too stable a long time i think but other altcoins huge down basically we all suffering with coin in the last year. Bitcoin price recently big falling.

It is very difficult for investors to understand why BTC prices fluctuate continuously and increase in short time and then decrease. I think there are too many speculators and Bitcoin collectors to make prices fall quickly.

graphically and seen last year, bitcoin has decreased dramatically and in conditions like this, confidence and patience are the most important, of course, investors' expectations prices will soon rise and investors benefit
