Bitcoin Forum

I read a tweet this morning saying: "In 2018 everyone wanted to be in crypto. In 2019, we will find out who really wants to be in crypto."

Who's ready to invest in 2019?

2019 - a year for more applications? More useful use cases? Proper token economics?

I know the Elrond Network team will be here in 2019 - buidling as always :)

We needs more support from the institutional investors, your ico will change nothing in the next year.
If there will be a lot of utility token in the future and that should be considered as a good thing dude. We need a utility token to prove the regulators about the usefulness of crypto.

Bullrun will come this 2019, and many people do things as always do. trade hard, buy hard, gain income hard, In todays economics, the price nearly dropped more than half just  for this year. But what happens in 2019 is the opposite. Many experts believe crypto will fight back and go rise up once again

 :o Is it promotion for Elrond Network?

It's a statement :)

I am ready to invest in the cryptocurrency market in 2019. I am confident in the market and believe in the idea that it carries, I think 2019 will be positive to all skeptics out of spite !

Good points

the first is that we have to wait for the efforts of the Bitcoin ethics, accepted or not. other than that, crypto must increase its function, for example, as a payment tool for a product.

We have a lot of great news for 2019 and if all of them are going to happen we will see another bull run. But as we have learned from 2018, it does not matter how big the news is, the market can still be manipulated, so lets just wait for the better times.

I agree with the fact that we need support from institutional investors - I still think our project will shake things up a bit. For any meaningful adoption we need a platform that can scale and we believe we have the solution.

Still waiting for that in 2019 will start the platform Bakkt and launch a bitcoin ETF, so that the results of these events I think will start something to happen!

Like the positive vibe

In all likelihood, 2019 will be for us a time of trial and inspection. The promise to be very tough for cryptocurrency prices. Yes, we continue to gain momentum, and we will see that it will be a great time to buy, since in 2020 a new wave of growth will begin.

maybe the tweet is right, people who stay in crypto world next year is the real crypto believer
because at the beginning of 2018 the price was good enough but now i can said this is a crash year in crypto,,
i'm ready for 2019  ;)
anyway what is Elrond Network ? is this a kind of ICO project or what ?

if this continues, investor confidence in the digital currency will decrease, it requires legal rules or laws such as fiat currency in general because making stable digital coins can be trusted and enjoyed by the community

for predictions in 2019 I don't have it yet, but I myself will be on crypto just not yet willing to make an investment because all this time I have not monitored the crypto market.

all those who invested in "altcoins" last year had no intentions of "being in crypto" and anybody who said that has no idea about this market. all those people who came in the altcoin market were super hyped up for making money and they were seeing pumps while being fed lies about how these shitcoins were the future.
they know now that they were fooled when the same people who hyped them also dumped on them.

Hi mate - check out this thread - it should clear things out for you: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4430681.msg48273320#msg48273320

If people believe in crypto maybe 2018 and 2019 will always invest. With that trust maybe they (Investors) will think 2019 the market will recover. The crypto market is indeed in extraordinary testing, no one expected this to happen. If you believe in crypto, of course you would think 2019 the crypto market will recover.

Very good words, and I think the same.Only now I think in 2019, there will be no significant breakthroughs in cryptography.We will have to wait for 2020.In order for the market to recover in 2019, it is necessary to have working projects with the target audience.

Healing from the market and also information that is also not negative. because of course there is now a lot of news that triggers prices from the market to decline. and that is happening now.

People will need to be using the technology more and not just investing in it. Sharing the technology with acquaintances is good. There are already a lot of good projects out there which just needs recognition. It will recover once trust is gained once again from old investors and also trust from new investors.

If we need a change in 2019 then a big investor need to jump and invest in a huge margin. If the value is continuously dropping investors will slowly get out from this crypto world as trust and hope is only thing which makes them to stay patiently here.

In order for the market to recover we need to double our effort to share or introduce the crypto industry to other people so that their will be increase in the investot and the market price will also increased if there will be no increase in the investors then our market price will not get high and we will still be having a down market.

Agree with you there mate! People need to see the potential of the tech involved.

maybe with market ETFs it can recover. I look forward to the decision on a bitcoin ETF that will be decided in February next year

 Market recovery always follow after the huge drops on the market. to answer your stated topic question. it is only dependent on the consumers volume of investment put in after the recent declined on the crypto market. High level of confidence from the investors also with high degree on contribution to past recovery of the market.Still i do believe that once the Panic Behavior on the market sudside, it will bring back the favorable status on the crypto market.

For the market to recover in the next year we need a positive news for cryptos so that people confident to invest and we should not sharing the FUD news in social media people will panic for sure.

Same thoughts. Everyone wants easy money on 2018 without knowing what they get into. Now, in this era, those people have been reducing and eventually, only those who wants to be in crypto will be in crypto.

The number of coin keep increasing without any direct impact on the market and that means there is no coin that will change the current situation of the market.  The only thing that will impact the market positively in 2019 is if ETF can be approved.

what must be done so that the market will rise again for 2019 is to attract investors with real and quality projects.

FOr the market to recover we need new entrance into the space, from what I read we are just 35 million people now into crypto this is very small when compared to the world population, if the number will move to 100 million or more it will serve us well, we truly need new money to enter the space, so the job is for anyone to introduce as many people as we know to cryptocurrencies

I guess this is a plug for the Elrond Network team. Not a bad one, anyway. One thing remains certain and that is the fact that 2018 has been very deplorable for everyone. We are only hopeful that as odd as it may sound that 2019 will be another 2017.

It's got to be! :)

true that!

Bitcoin will definitely still be accepted and become the main subject for other altcoins, indeed crypto should be a priority to further stimulate investors to be more enthusiastic, indeed all elements needed to participate in this matter

The story is cyclical, I think that we will see more than once the rise and fall of the crypto.

We should continue to support cryptocurrency not only during highs.  Prospective investors would risk their money if they will see an enormous support specially from the pioneers.

The need to lift the bitcoin is the increase of investors and bounty hunters. and the one needed is the bad bounty and replace the good project.

2019 should be an interesting year

Whatever has happened in this year is not encouraging for crypto investors and market so we need to just put that to a side and stay hopeful for the times to come, especially with the token economics and deflationary nature of cryptos and that too with quality projects it is almost guaranteed that all these will grow over long term, we just need to be patient and wait for trend reversal from here, for eth im positive we can see bulls soon both fundamentally and technically it is at a point where reversal is almost imminent.

maybe now is the right time to start buying bitcoin, make investment . but don't panic when suddenly bitcoin price drops lower than current price..

It will be interesting to see what Ethereum 2.0 aka Serenity brings in terms of tech.

If 2019 continues to trend toward 2018, we will continue to see that electronic money is losing 90% of its value and that what's in the wallet will become junk.

The thing to do to get back to the cryptocurrency is to increase investors and projects that are good for more to invest. because if many good projects are sure many investors will enter and bitcoin will rise again.

Although I think you're right - investors need to do their job much better and really start talking to those projects that actually have something to show at least in terms of tech.

So much marketing and so little in terms of tech - that needs to change.

Fully agree, a company that owns cryptocurrencies for the sake of having cryptocurrencies is ridiculous and they almost always fail. Utility tokens with real value use cases are what we need and the projects applying that logic will do well. Been following Plutus for quite some time and they made sure they were legally classified as a utility token since the beginning for that exact reason, the company is super regulatory compliant.

They're coming out in Q1 2019 and let people convert and spend their cryptocurrencies anywhere that is accepted by visa, trying to make cryptocurrencies usable as an exchange of value through a debit card or tap&pay app. Looking forward to seeing if they succeed.  :)

websites here: https://plutus.it/

Let's hope bad ICO start to fail more often and the market will get a little cleaner...

I think pioneer support isn't actually lacking. It's the lack of fresh investors that's halting the movement, probably scared of this volatile market. We're too small to actually make anything happen you now. Just don't contribute to the crash by panicking like a little girl.

the funny thing is, once we hit another bull run, it will just go right back to greedy madness.
Yes, 2017 was an amazing year with a terrific all time high.
2018 brought a very spectacular crash, bearish market, then another crash.

But I don't think the bubble has fully burst.
Markets like these get into the trillions of dollars before the real crash.
That means that crypto has got another crazy bull run left in it.
I anticipate 2019 will be pretty bearish all year long, with things finally gradually rising the third quarter.
Then, when it takes off, people will be all moon and lambo and fomo all over again.

Maybe a softer or more friendly government regulations is what the market needs right now to fully recover. Bitcoin bakkt and ETF launch may also help.

I think there is some much loss of confidence in the crypto space especially when it has to do with trust and genuinety of purpose. Bringing in some form of regulation will usher in some bull season as people will no longer fall for shitty projects

       It is very weird. In December 2017, everyone wanted to lower Bitcoin's price, to invest, too, with great confidence in the coin. Now that their desire has come true, they are afraid to invest that they crash the coin and lose their money. I believe that those who invested in 2018 will also invest in 2019. Most are very scared and do not rely on anything when investing. After all, life is a risk. I will invest.

IMO, we need plenty of good news and volumes coming into crypto for a bull run. With 2 new exchanges launching in 2019, it might not be difficult to see this happen.

We don't know what will happen with cryptocurrency in the future. But we still need to support the cryptos. Because after the bearish market there will be a bull run.

i think taht soem things of cours should be done but i am not sire taht i am a good specialists so i am eager to listen to others points of view

Of course for the market to recover we need institutional investors... more use cases for token.. and less shitcoin offering

I only hope that in 2019, eth Bitcoin will be approved with ethereum and several other altcoins, and hardfork eth that runs smoothly according to plan

I invested in 2018 so I could easily invest also in 2019 because I think the crypto world is a great place for our investments. The market needs more investors in order to grow.

People need to get back into bitcoin and increase the volume for that to happen. Right now the sell orders and buy orders are not too different from each other hence the price stays around the same price, whenever it goes down the sell order amount passes the buy order amount which makes the price go down.

Hence technically speaking if the volume increases a lot and the buy orders are a lot more than the sell orders than the price will go up. So we need to focus on getting bitcoin loved again, that's all there is we can do.

A lot of people lost money in bitcoin and went away, we need to regroup them and tell them that the price is looking amazing and instead of buying from the top they will be buying from the bottom and the only direction is up for their investment. If we can manage to convince enough people the market will recover.

is it going to  below 100? i m just confused.

in order to revive the market in 2019, we need a lot of good news and further acceptance from crypto. i think acceptance is the most important thing crypto needs in the coming months.

I really want to see less short term speculators and ICO Flippers in 2019 and more solid long term thinking investors, who just want to purchase their crypto and hold, like people who are in hedge funds and pension funds. I do not think that all these low ball speculators are doing any good in this industry, except leeching the system and draining the markets constantly with their nasty shorting tactics. I think we need more regulation and less manipulation as well, to make this a healthier market to be in.

Agree with you there mate - some sort of regulation wouldn't harm anyone!

Yes, I think there will be a lot of good news for next year, including ETFs that will be discussed again in February next year, if ETFs are accepted, I think Bitcoin will return to the right track, which is a very high price increase.

The thing that needs to happen in 2019 is trust and support from investors, on cryptocurrency projects. At least that will affect the market situation which has declined in recent months.  (holding) to difficult situations, don't panic and sell. That's a good step to make a choice.
Thank you very much and keep the spirit!

It seems to me that 2019 year, will also be a little disappointing for so many people, because it is no secret that most people hope that in 2019, Bitcoin will repeat its maximum it reached at the end of 2017. But this will not happen, and we all know very many reasons for this.

what about the proposal ETF?
I hope there is good news about this, at least this could be the reason investors trust will rise again next year.

I think that tweet is giving a warning that there will be more intense corrections.

And by finding out on who's really the people that are willing to stay and wanted to support crypto shall remain. This is what probably that tweet is all about. Why invest in 2019 if you can start investing right now? Nice topic starter with a side advertising.  :)

I see from year to year ICO is getting better with various security features and transfer speeds in 2019, but it is very much appreciated that people's interest in crypto is gradually diminishing. there needs to be strict rules so that you throw away coins that don't work on the project

I guess there should be a new generation of ICOs with strong teams and interesting ideas which will push the market ahead! All of this crap will disappear because the market and the community will be cleverer!

The potential use case that will make cryptocurrency recover in 2019 is by having some good news on cryptocurrency and any other news regarding to coins and tokens. And if possible if the ico were regulated, we can see more good market growth.

if the survey is made now it seems like no one really wants to invest in 2019 because they also see a good market if the market is still not good means everyone will take another step.

I doubt they will get convinced very easily especially after this year no matter how many people try. 2018 has proven that cryptocurrencies can lose their value in matter of days with no rhyme or reason.

The extreme volatility of this market will always push many investors away from this market and the only thing that can pull back investors in my opinion is governments approving cryptocurrencies pushing for widestream adoption.

This was actually true if you don't even wanna read the thread.

A lot of people are still having intention to invest in the crypto but this thread was discussed about what the factor that will make crypto will recover again.  :D  :P

In fact, in 2019 there should be quite a few events that must necessarily push not only the market, but also some coins in particular!

2018 is arguably the start of exams on crypto. next year in 2019 will be serious people who will look at crypto and also people who will lose their trust in crypto. not wrong them also in this regard because waiting too long increases too boring especially sure they need a steady income for their needs.

Right at the beginning of next year we will see the bakkt come into operation. This will be the catalyst for a full recovery. It might only be a few months rather than years for the next ath

Crypto market is a harsh world, only those who had a good strength and so much patient in this bear market is someone who will be able to survive in the next year of cryptocurrency market.
In order to be able to bear the market, i tried to kept the coins that i had and do some trading in the market.

A good impetus for the development of the cryptocurrency industry in 2019 will be the arrival of institutional investors and the launch of the Bakkt platform. Many people who are associated with cryptocurrencies are likely to wait for this

BAKKT will bring huge investors such as institution investors that interested to cryptocurrency.and i think this is best time for them to buy coins, because all coins in lowest price now.

I think that in the cryptocurrency market, as in other markets, there are stages of psychological impact on the person and when there is a surrender of despair and everyone ceases to believe in the idea because of the price reduction, the price paradoxically begins to grow. Falling prices do not change the essence or the idea that has cryptocurrency. Weaver that catch bitcoin when people stop believing in it, I think this is the main factor that will affect the growth !

maybe if it is true that crypto is recovering next year, maybe investors will start investing again to cover the losses they have received because of the worsening crypto situation and the very drastic price decline that has survived until now, and even now crypto has not showing signs of recovery even though there have been many predictions that the market will recover at the end of this year.

The market needs more investors in order to recover. Many investors panicked and most of them sold their alts and b3cause of that the market fell. A bullrun would lure investors like it did last year.

certainly what we need is a miracle for the market, because that's the only way for the market to experience major changes. and it could also be with the help of many investors in this world who want large amounts of investment to make the market go up again in the price of the coins

We will need many things, we need governments to accept cryptocurrency, build regulation for ICO and cryptocurrency. We need main adoption of cryptocurrency in economy and real life, we need real working products of cryptocurrency with millions users

In 2019, in many projects have planned a large number of significant improvements and upgrades, for example, ethereum after the implementation of new protocols can become a currency that can transact at a tremendous speed per second, if this happens, then the entire ecosystem of ethereum-based tokens will receive a very big stimulus .

Another is the cryptocurrency to increase or return to the original. this is the rise of bitcoin but to increase the bitcoin the investors need to grow and the beautiful ico or bounty projects come out to increase the bounty hunters. because this happens everything will be fine and it will return to cryptocurrency.

wait, what if it doesn't work. are there other ways to make the market recover?
I have hope with Bakkt but it's not too big because we don't know investors' interest in this matter.

I am always having belief on the crypto currencies so I am willing to invest on the bitcoin any time,we need to make this kind of attitude on everyone's mind if we want the prices to recover in 2019 or later since the process is going to take longer than we expected to be.

I really hope to see more applications in year 2019 but with the price, it's not so promising to have a big difference but with varied useful applications, price will surely follow.

actually there is no need for anything to happen to make the market recover. just stop selling, then the market will slowly recover by itself. whatever happens as long as people prefer to sell there will not be a pump to come

2019 and I still have not ventured to invest, because in my opinion there is still far a view for the market to return as before. Even if prices are stable, this stability tends to decline in the future. So for the foreseeable future I will only see how the market will run

I think we need more quality investors - people who are not typical to the crypto world - but investors who look for successful long term projects.

2018 is really hard for all holders I'm a newbie here but I prefer to stay whatever happens this 2019, it's been ten years, and cryptocurrency have gone a long way in these ten years and we will just leave it because it's not performing very well this year? we need to sum up what cryptocurrency have done over the years.

In 2019 we need real investors, not just everyone who are tricking the market to rise and attract the others to purchase a coins to make the price rise and then they dump them for their own profit.

Investors who understand that this is a technology that will shape the future are here for long term - we should not be afraid of tough times - it's all part of delivering something good.

Market recover when new moneys come to the crypto.
This happen if new utility or idea developed for easy income new moneys.
Pumping crypto from this point need huge amount of moneys i dont think what big players want to do that

Value. Crypto-related projects must start adding real world value.

I don't think there is anything that needs to happen. Capitalists only need to buy coins to make the coins take off again. Now the cryptocurrency market needs to take off continuously. The US stock market has officially entered a recession, so this is good for the cryptocurrency market.

News does not solve anything...
Just whales should want to pump the market...
And when they do that, market will recover...

It look simplistic but the fact remains that without investors the market won't make any progress people just need to put their money into the market for there to be revival

As a bounty hunter, I can say that 2018 really is something to test who are those really passionate about the things that a bounty hunter do, also, it filters out the cryptocurrency market for those that are just trolling over the bounty hunting industry.

Well, there really is no certain thing(s) that need to happen in order to bull market start again. What was the thing (and still is) that really grow BTC to 20k USD? The reason behind that (and all the other Bitcoin bulls) has been simple greed. People just want to receive some easy money and BTC is perfect for it.

What we really need is some years of nothing and stagnation. People have to see BTC as a possibility to make a lot of money with a relatively short time.

at the beginning of 2018 the bitcoin chart showed a correction sign at that time the bear season began, until now there are so many bitcoin price factors dropped dramatically, when people who own lots of goods and sell them at prices soar then the price of these items will fall, and that is happening to bitcoin but don't worry and panic because when people know the price and scarcity of goods then prices will sooner or later be high.

For me it is clear that institutional moneu should enter crypto market to change the game.
Bakkt and ETF should be adopted in February and there is also ethereum network upgrade. A lot of positive news!

yes you are right, Bakkt and ETF are the most appropriate way to make the market recover. if the two go according to plan, I'm sure there will be changes that will occur in the market

1. Bakkt being a huge success.
2. If not - I don't see any reason to be bullish about BTC short or long run. So maybe some sort of flippening - ETH or EOS or something else, that everyone immediately gets bullish on.

Well, we obviously need an influx of fresh money, so let's consider what could bring it.
ETF-s are a big deal, but institutions can also short BTC, not just long it.
Fundamentals aren't going anywhere. Altcoins are not popular - maybe some popular altcoin can bring us the next bull - but it will have to be spectacular and I'm seeing nothing spectacular so far ...

Development from the cryptocurrency and the demand from the people.
Demand will dictate the price of any tokens or coins in the market.
Development will gather more demand from the people to get their tokens.

ETFs must be approved if indeed the market wants to recover. without this the crypto market will not have the power to grow. so if you have to wait until February for certainty from the SEC.

The Bakkt launch. This platform was created by the largest players on the market like Microsoft and Starbucks and I have no doubts that this platform is going to make mass adoption happen even sooner as planned.

- Very reasonable, and I can not disagree with your opinion because I see this market getting a lot of positive news but things are still without a big change, good news does not seem to have too much influence on the crypto market. While the influence of whales is quite obvious, although the market does not have the good news and almost only the negative news but with the help from whales, the market can still get a very strong green, this is a situation that we see very often, the pump appears very unexpected and does not have any rules, and that is enough to understand the market wants to recover, it needs their impact

Early 2018 everyone wanted to be in crytk but the stories that followed is quite unpleasant and it threw many persons out of the market. Let's see what 2019 will bring.

For the market to be recovered, of course, it takes a short time, we can't do anything if it's time to recover this condition, of course it will recover itself, especially the crypto cycle that happens every year, early 2019, hopefully it will be a good start

The main factor to recover my sense its about ETF and ETH hardfork. In 2018, already delayed several times with the support of a lot of fud strewn about make the condition more worse. And why a lot of people told invest in 2019 due in year 2018 is already too long with a bad situation and all altcoin already in the bottom price.

More stores need to start advertising Bitcoin and the volatility has to come down for that to happen. For utility tokens it is purely about adoption of their technology in real world

It seems to be, the infestation process already been started, i can see that most of the cryptocurrency rising together.
I believe it makes many people feeling a bit refreshed after being worried because of he market condition that was keep on falling.

surviving and invest in future means they have patience and trust with potential on crypto. of course, this is also because more people are starting to go and does not believe its crypto conditions that exist today where everything is almost never given results within one year. the loss of confidence is clear and therefore only the best will survive.

Maybe it's a good step, stores or companies can use crypto for transactions, development is increasingly widespread and many social media offer a variety of online services and this is a good opportunity to be able to receive crypto. Hope this can be accepted and applied.

that is what should be the focus and attention of every developer, because if their product is not developed and is useless, then people are not interested and do not want to use the product, so there is no request for the token.

besides adoption we also need huge market capitalization to cryptocurrency price recovered again.total market capitalization at this moment only around $122 billions.meanwhile at peak price at 2017 there are more $800 billions.and if we want it get back we need insituttion investors.

Need positive news/ rumors and also people trust to keep trade/ invest using crypto as the main income. Market can survive depend on that but we all know market is pairs from another market, this is we can't control and great analysis it doesn't mean always get income. As long people still use crypto, this red market will gone and survive but how we can do that? Please don't think about it just use your asset to buy/ sell crypto, that's it.

Absolutely Nicolas! I believe people need to look at crypto with different eyes - not just a quick buck opportunity but a long term support for a technology that is changing the world.

In order for the market to recover in 2019, it is necessary to take active and bold actions of the ethereum development team. These actions should consist in making decisions on the regulation and protection on their own platform ethereum from the actions of ICO fraudulent projects and the closure of such ERC-20 tokens.

I hope that in 2019, ethereum fork will run smoothly and the bitcoin ethf will be approved and the bitcoin future will soon be released, 2019 will be an amazing year

For the market to recover in 2019 we need regulations to enable institutional investors to enter the market.
And need projects with strong use cases which will prove the benefits of blockchain technology.
And also we need less scams.

Is it a news for you? Bakkt and ETF are most waited events in crypto world,man
Once those are accepted, crypto is going to the moon,believe me!

Don't wait next year invest now. For now the movement of the market is good because they increase again.
I hope it will recover as soon as possible don't waste your time invest now your money and it will grow.

For 2019 recovery, we need more organizations to get involved in cryptocurrency or adopt the blockchain technology. More businesses also need to start using it as medium of exchange in place of local fiat money.

If the cryptocurrency market does not develop well and recover this year, then 2019 will be a cruel year, but now the cryptocurrency market is beginning to recover in the last few days, so the cryptocurrency market will take off again in 2019.

Sure, if the ETF is accepted. Crypto will be like gold, its price going to the moon soon after. But it is not easy for an ETF to be accepted, with my thinking it will probably delay again

The market began to recover at the end of 2018. The influence of Christmas, the capitalists once again benefit investors, but investors who did not insist will not earn more profits, so the cryptocurrency market needs patience.

There will have to be a rebuilding of trust and many succesful project to turn around the negative perspective about ICO funding and then investment. A kind of regulation authority that is decentralized will have to happen to check excesses of scam ICO!

First of all, whales need to be saturated :) Trust in the market needs to be increased, more investors need, unnecessary useless coins should be removed from the market.

I think all that the cryptocurrency market needs is the absence of pressure from states and the absence of manipulation by the whales. We will see a huge increase in cryptocurrency, which can stop nothing.

In the near future, if BAKKT puts into operation, there will be good signals for market because many big investors will approach this market more easily and the reliability of Bitcoin will be raised

there are many opportunities for growth that will occur next year, yes we can examine the number of Q4 that are running. plus now there is a lot more profitable news on crypto trading, but again I say.
the market will need a long enough time to recover as in the previous year

2019 looks a promising year and lots of opportunities to come for cryptocurrency. Most of us are expecting a recovery and bullish market next year. We are expecting ETF approval, stronger crypto regulations, massive recognition from new investors and NASDAQ to list bitcoin futures by 2019. With these incoming big news, market recovery or a new all time high is inevitable.

I hope people focus a bit more on the technology rather than trading and quick buck

Donat and investment are different things. If a small bull does not come, perhaps investors will be much less for 2019. Now everything depends on the first few months.

No single token can expand the market. We need fundamental changes. We need large investors. Many people say people stop believing in cryptocurrencies.
But these people never believed. They only believed that they could make money in this market.  We have to stop looking at cryptocurrencies as an instrument for make a money only.

I am also waiting for a very good period that will bring all the investors the profits they have been waiting for so long. Ethereum will recover and gain a lot as well as the best tokens like TRON and ADA

The Market will not recover until the whales get the ETH and BTC from the retail investors and the 2017 ICO projects.Because the whales are the banks.They give lots of bank loans in 2017 to people who invested in crypto and now these people will burn and became slaves of the system which is the point of their strategic tactic.These people will not be able to play the game soon so in the next bull run there will be fresh new fishes to catch with promises for lambos etc

I think there should be a regulatory organ. Then confidence will increase in 2019. The market can not recover in one month. I think it will take months and years. Although growth is very rapid. The main thing is not to drain the coins while the price is low, so that we can not manipulate.

It is right that these steps will recover the market and with that we also know that in the coming year ICE will start Bitcoin futures, NASDAQ will also start trading of Bitcoin and with these there will be a security to the manipulation which will cause the SEC to approve ETF which will recover the price faster.

Crypto will recover once most useless altcoins are gone, but at the current rate that's going to still take a couple more years. A lot of people are desperate and continue to cling to dreams of getting rich (or their money back) off of pixie dust (i.e., Blockchain 2.0, AI, side chains, China government partnerships, supply chain chips...)

In my opinion. one step for the market to recover is to buy coins at high prices and as much as possible. And also investors want to invest in crypto currencies. thus I am sure if the market conditions will return to stability and interest in crypto will increase.

The end of 2018 will be the beginning of an increase in crypto market prices. I am sure if in 2019 there will be many investors returning to the market. Because we need great investor support to restore crypto glory as happened in 2017.

In any case, in 2016, the informational PR campaign of cryptocurrency was successful, as indicated by the capitalization of the cryptocurrency market in 2017. Today, many people are deceived and it will be very difficult to return the old figures.

The market has changed, development and exposure is way up, the number of buyers and sellers is like 1000x more now, it makes sense that recovery patterns would condense in time with more people involved buying and selling, trading bags.

It seems everyone understands what is needed for the market to start moving up again. Today we need new investments that will be really attached, and not just some USDT tokens that have not yet been audited. Therefore, I hope that the market will still work correctly.
