Friends, when the situation stabilizes and we surely go to the Moon again, it’s clear that selling Bitcoin will worth it, but how long the cryptocurrency market will suffer a loss? Can you buy promising altcoins or even Bitcoin using a huge decline?

There is no certainty in this space, and no one can predict how long a bearish market would last.


The price dip presents an opportunity to buy coins at cheaper rates, so you can invest in promising currencies. And cash out during a pump.

i am pretty sure its over, the problem is structural, the bitcoin propaganda ministry will never admit and stop running their agenda, they simply will continue till they have realised its hopeless.

they have to suffer first till they are ready for reforms.

Probably a bearish market on New Year eve.  Ther is yet a news about a possible catalyst for Bitcoin bull run for this year.  Though if you feel confident about the altcoin you wanted to buy in this huge crash, go for it.  Besides I believe a potential and promising altcoin will give you much profit than holding your Bitcoin dearly.  There is much room to grow for a starting good project.

if you still have a little confidence in bitcoin next year then buying is the right choice at the moment, and also the altcoin on the top 10 list will have good potential

We could see some changes by January 2019 with the launch of bitcoin bakkt.

Buying altcoins is really risky at the moment but you can still do so. It just depends on your risk appetite really.

It's uncertain to determine on how long we will wait for the ending this bear season. No one has the exact time when we will see the market stabilize again, if you bought bitcoin earlier somehow last year or even earlier than that you can still say that its worth selling it.

Because we saw it went $20,000 on its all time high, no one would like to sell at this level. We're all patiently waiting and this struggle has broken most of the expectations that by the end of the year, something good will happen.

I think everything will end in this month. We have some good news like sec, etf etc in the first of 2019. So i think we are very close to the next bull run.

Selling bitcoin now is not worth it. if you will buy at this rate that is fortune for the future.
lets wait more days and it will rise, money on December!
People get bonuses and more money at this month, lets wait for them and give them more time.

We won't see any major improvement within the next 6 months at least. And you can be lucky if the price doesn't go below the $3000 line. Now we will need at least a year to get a decent market. Aaand decent is a subjective word. I don't expect anything so I know I won't have disappointments. Live the Bitcoin life and use it, fuck the value.

The system is filled with so many uncertainties, which is a peculiarity to the human existence anyways! Best we just enjoy the moment and worryless about what would happen tomorrow. DOYR to key into any promising altcoins of your choice and live with the outcome.

The 4000 USD is a proof that bitcoins will rise back again. If it has driven down the way to 2000 USD then I know hope will be lost for it resurrection yet it was able to bounce back from 3800 to 4000 in a short period of time.

I think that at this point we can say that the situation is stabilizing in the range of $3,500 - $4,500. I think the situation will look like this until around mid-January, then prices should start rising.

But it also has a good side, could say this is a rare moment, by buying at this low price and holding it for some time, such good profits will be obtained at hand. Only it just we are not patient enough to run for that some time.

Don't be so sure. Bitcoin is so volatile that a single big thing is able to move it by thousands of dollars. If Bakkt and Vaneck ETF were accepted in December we would be at $5000 at the very least. 1000 up or down for Bitcoin is nothing. It could be at 5000 tomorrow, but it could also go to 3000 in 1 day. I expect the situation to get better by March.

Hope is always the highest, it is certain that all crypto holders expect it, but we cannot know what will happen next because at this time the market is red again, after all, I also feel the bitcoin price will definitely drop even lower, maybe it will sit at $1.2k+, but with the fall of the crypto market this time I'm sure will there have a big increase that will happen next.

yes, of course, we hope BTC can improve better and go to the moon quickly, so BTC can create bullish, but, in my opinion, a fast bullish market will not occur in the first year of 2019.

BTC need a long time to recover its popularity, and I can't promise, because it's about fast volatility.

 In the current  situation, btc fall below 4K and I do believe that this situation is the best way to buy btc at a much lower price value. If  people are in doubt, then they should shift to altcoins which they think is more promising based on market data analysis. Going back to btc,  I believe that this will spike further in the coming year and most likely,  no bullish run this month.  

Huge decline is opportunity to buy bitcoin or altcoins
But depend on the people how much they want to hodl volumes of bitcoin or altcoins
Because for sure peoplle  every time they have an opportunity to buy during price decline they grab it

This could be a bull trap. Big whales are actually waiting for a good time to start things moving up again. So just be patient and don't make them know that you are still in the market.

I'm not sure BTC will pump in the new year, I don't see good support, and the development is still slow, but I bought BTC and several altcoins for long-term investment.

and trading with a fast cycle is my choice today. because there are several good altcoins for trading.

I expect back to 10k range around mid january / february when we will see bakkt operating if they will not delay it again and some hopefully good news about ETF approval . Lets wait and see what happens as nobody knows for sure

No one knows what will happened. No one also knows when is the expected bull run. So in here, we just have to deal on the current trend. Setup and analyzed what's your purpose, to hodl, to take profits on the swing, or whatever.


Of course yes. You can take advantage of the price swings whether on btc or alts.

Your chances of winning will depend on how will you managed your strategy along the way.

The fall can't go on forever. Of course, soon will come the recovery of the market, but nobody can say exactly when this will happen. So now there is time to start investing in altcoins and bitcoin. This year we are unlikely to see something positive, but perhaps next year it will be better.

I think we can make a profit even the market is declining because we can buy some coin or even bitcoin and make a profit mostly to altcoin that a great value that you can really make a good earnings.

I think we're gonna keep going sideways between the 3k-4k range for what's left of the year. Unless the bulls decide it's time for a bitcoin rally right in the middle of the holidays, I don't see the btc price going up or having a significantly surge in price this month, it might sound pessimistic but that's the reality of this bear market. But it's all part of a cycle, sooner or later we're going to see a reversal, for now, you either hold or accumulate more coins.

No one can answer that question directly. Even last years massive growth wasn't even predicted, the price keeps fluctuating, but that's the bitcoin that everyone knows, very volatile, and some see it as a negative traits, but for most in a opportunity to buy bitcoins at a cheap price.


As I have said, the the current market situations offers a advantage for those who wanted to be a bagholder for a long time. I'm not sure about altcoins though, majority of them are just for pump-and-dump scheme.

For the time price will continue to fluctuate somwhere between 3500$ and 4000$ at least it looks so now. So, nothing from the huge pump for the end of the year.
And it's very hard to tell what exactly could we expect from the new year. I expect for price to recover but again there is no guarantee for that and definetely no time frame when this might happen. I think that the next year will be full of surprises too.

I also feel that way. for this year, it looks like the price of bitcoin will remain stable at the current price range. even though there is a lot of good news, I am sure this year the price of bitcoin will not grow even higher. well, I also feel that 2019 will be a pretty good thing.

I hope when the price stabilize in the next year or so it doesn't go to the moon like what we've experienced last 2017 because you already know what to expect the next time it happens and it's not good for everyone.

You can definitely make a profit during this time by shorting Bitcoin and alts but it has a risk to it and I don't recommend doing it.

That's unlikely to happen there's too many people selling right now and it might last until the end of December or January.

We can expect the better situations in the new year because i'm sure we all here bored with downtrend but as long as market support for crypto still high or even increasing then possibly next year the price will slightly better but indeed to see bitcoin price high again i will very pesimistic it will happened in 2019

To be honest no has the answer for your question? The market is turning complicated, Even the experts are silent these days. But what I have noticed here is a lot of people are buying coins in cheap prices from panic sellers, also those who have faith in cryptocurrency are still holding their coins.

It's basically what we should expect because as we all know, coins are dropping off. And yes, things in crypto space isn't good this season when it comes to its value. Many of us still thinking when will definitely the price stop and this will be a good time to buy.

The crash has been so big that I doubt any ETF or Bakkt is going to give a positive result honestly, or maybe just for 3 days each.

People are also looing their hope about ETF, it's too late to use it as the argument to revive the market, the impact will be less.
Generally speaking, people are demoralized with crypto, it doesn't make newcomers want to do it. No matter how good is the news.

Bakkt won't help, simply because the average Joe won't use it, it will target the institutional investors with a regulated market. But like the average Joe, institutions won't really be interested to invest in cryptos now. Most will consider it too late.

Even myself after all these years on crypto I do see those upcoming events wont really be effective to recover the current market condition.
No one knows on whats ahead on those months but talking for this years recovery it is impossible. We are sitting strong and cant able to break that 4k resistance
again.

You can literally buy anything as of the moment as all of them will surely rise up once the market recovery will begin, but I don't have the answer for what coin will have the biggest gain as even if they will recover it will surely be another FOMO in the market in which they will be crazy on buying what coin they think is surely rising faster. If you want a safe bet you can always go buy Bitcoin as it is the market leader and it dictates the flow on where the market will go. If you want the biggest gainer then you should research on what coin you should buy next.

I guess sometimes when most of the traders are putting too much hope on the official launch of Bakkt to trigger a bull run in the crypto-currencies trading market, the result would usually go towards the opposite direction. But I still truly hope that Bakkt are able to trigger another round of crypto-currencies madness in year 2019, as this would surely raise the confidence level of many new investors to invest their money into crypto-currencies.

Be patient and wait, bitcoin will definitely be able to return to the moon, but to be able to reach the moon, bitcoin takes time, and I think approaching 2020 bitcoin will be able to make a recovery.

I'd expect a continued price in the 3000s and 4000s for most of the first half of 2019. Usually takes a while for the transition from bear market to bull market. So in the new year I expect same as it is now.

Our market can't promise on that cause all the prices is depending on the investors and the buy and sell the'll do everyday. Recovery will soon to follow but it will take more time with. If we can wait on it, then will all see the sunlight again.

And what reforms do you suggest? I can see a lot of issues with altcoins, especially when it comes to icos but I do not see how those issues could disappear, but when it comes to bitcoin what kind of problems to you see? Because I do not see any significant problem that cannot be solved, the biggest issue people have with bitcoin are the fees but developers are already working on that.
