I hope all Cryptocurrency will climb same as in 2017

There is a lot of good news, good things seem to be coming to the crypto market. Epay's will accept crypto payments and Facebook has removed the ban on crypto ads on their platform. Facebook has also released official information about its own plans to release crypto. I don't know if the market will grow like 2017, but at least we entered uptrend after bad days.

Yes, I am so happy about all this news I am hearing because we are going mainstream at last, I knew that this companies are going to come aboard to the crypto space and that it's just a matter of time before it begins to happen. This companies have seen that in some few years to come,  fiat might not be relevant anymore in the world and seeing that crypto will be the next move, they are doing everything possible to come on-board quickly in order not to miss out from what is coming.

Bitcoin may continue its rally and when mainstream of adoption is happening then we may see x100 times more faster growth (I am not talking about the price levels but the rate (change of price/give time frame) at which rally is happening). I guess before halving may test one million levels too just because of FOMO among new bitcoin adopters.

Bitcoin is getting to be interesting to watch how it will be behaving this 2019 in contrast to its surge in 2017. There are many predictions on how the bull run will be transpiring this year but only Bitcoin and time can tell which of them will eventually come true. Suffice it to say that it is moving good and soon an avalanche of bull riders can be coming to the market including some money from institutional investors...and this can further put fire to already burning market. Certainly, many good news on the horizon are helping a lot. Interestingly, there are no sticky FUDs this time around as bad news were clearly ignored.

Such innovations help us move forward about adoption. This year adoption develops without stopping. Anyway, this is the best way to essential increase, and will make price tighter over time.

all of these news that you are listing here about eBay accepting and Microsoft platform, and a couple of others that missed like Whole Food,.... are all about bitcoin. meaning eBay and all those other companies stated that they either already started accepting bitcoin or plan on doing that soon. it has nothing to do with "cryptocurrencies" and i don't think they will accept any altcoin any time soon if at all.
in fact that is one of the main reasons why we are seeing bitcoin price rise to $8000+

in Consensus New York, the world will know about cryptocurrency, blockchain, and bitcoin.
I think now till end of the year will being bull run for all cryptocurrency  :D :D

The cryptocurrency space is getting some boost with lots of positive news and i hope it will continue until the end of 2019. since i love to read those positive articles these is the prove that cryptocurrency adoption are already entering the mainstream in the next following years im pretty sure that it will be more results than everyone can imagine.

various good news have been told before this bull run but the market sentiment doesn't move along eitht the news, i think the bull market doesn't base solely because of good news.

Bull markets may not be based on good news. But market sentiment is often influenced by the news especially with regard to adoption by large companies. In this case, consensus certainly has a big role. Can be seen with a list of guests and visitors as well as presenters from various sectors on an international scale.

Yeah, the news that Ebay will start to accept cryptocurrency came in as a huge surprise to me and we're definitely seeing the effects of that.
It's a pretty big deal, even though Ebay really isn't what it used to be.

If Amazon ever decides to accept cryptocurrency, i think we're really going to see new price levels being reached!

Samsung Electronics plans to expand the application of blockchain and cryptocurrency functions, which were loaded onto the Galaxy S10, to other models such as the budget Galaxy phones.

The Korean tech giant also plans to cooperate with telecom companies in blockchain-based mobile identification cards (digital identity authentication) and local currencies. Currently, SK Telecom and KT are taking the lead in the digital identity authentication and local currency sectors, respectively.

Adoption is what matters the most and many giants entering the market in some way.
The market has finally reacted positively  to all these good news.

Although ebay has not confirmed of accepting crypto yet rather they have said there is no such official news or notification yet but other than that both technically and fundamentally market is ready to boost from here so im expecting a really nice run from here.

This is a great news and a very good step for crypto to be accepted wholly and globally.But I think its just for selected coin I guess like Bitcoin, eth,xrp and top crypto in market since other coins are still not stable and questionable by other goevernment organization.

Ebay has sponsored the consensus and one or two placards were there that ebay will also accept cryptocurrency. It's way good for us.
There's some tools in blockchain industry as of now which can be used heavily since microsoft is thinking of developing identity tool, existing software like DeepVautl will also be more popular.

Another news (good for many and neutral for majority) needs to he added to your list. It's about Bitcoin ETF and came directly from SEC,

https://news.bitcoin.com/sec-commissioner-time-right-bitcoin-etf-funds/

Even though SEC didn't release any official statement yet and the statement is coming from personal feelings, but I am sure sonething is cooking up for better!

I haven't yet seen the detailed prospectus but as per the article, both Bitwise and Vaneck Solidex are physical ETFs. This certainly brings some reason to cheer!

ETFs are not longer considered news whether good or bad so people don't care about them anymore since SEC has already rejected dozens of them each multiple times and this time there is no reason for it to be different. all the similar news that is coming out were coming out for most of the previously rejected ETFs too!!!
not to mention that ETF won't do bitcoin any good or bad.

Is ETF so much important for the good of bitcoin? I doubt it has so much impact. May be the price will get bumped in the short term while in the long term, we need more adoption in most of the places.

What is kind of suspicious to me is that there were lots of good news and rumours last year, too, but no news had any positive impact on the price. Nowadays, a simple rumour is enough to push BTC that hard?
News like JPM releases their own coin, big players entering the market and ETFs were planned are way more positive and should have had an higher impact than "ebay might accept CC" ...

The market is in full green and good news about crypto is everywhere ,from Facebook coin down to eBay implementation of crypto I think this is why crypto turn out full green but for ow long? I hope his growth will be like the 2017 or even surpass that and stay longer

Ebay clarified the rumor: they won't accept bitcoin or cryptocurrency. See reference: https://coinnounce.com/ebay-no-plans-of-accepting-bitcoin-cryptocurrencies/. Many companies leverage bitcoin's reputation to advertise themselves nowadays and it seems like Ebay is no exception.

Consensus definitely contribute to the increase of cryptocurrency price because people can see the big names there in the block chain industry. However about eBay they already denied the rumor that they will accept cryptocurrency as a form of payment etc, i think they are still exploring the best option but eventually in the long run they jump into crypto.

A major merchant like E-Bay accepting crypto currency is merely a rumor at this stage because no official announcement has been made by the company itself even though this article has been published by a somewhat credible news source, but if this does eventuate it will of course be a very positive development for the industry and may entice PayPal to enter the market too

Even if they don't, they'd soon be replaced by other crypto supported platforms. It's easier for Ebay to implement crypto but Paypal on the other hand is a direct competitor of crypto itself. It may accept deposits like skrill is doing but in the long run when all of the paypal customers comes to know about crypto, they'd realise paypal is just a middle man feeding on their money.
