I have been thinking if cryptocurrency projects should come back as it was in the early 2016 to 2017 as many of us came into cryptocurrency industry the time it has been made visible to many people, because that early 2016 a lot of people don't really have the knowledge and how it works that time, what do you think that will happen if those days should come back in the crypto phase?

Those were the days of hype. Though no one can guarantee that won't come back but it would not be as effective as the last one. People blindly jumped into any ICO or coin and it rose crazy bringing them instant profit. It was more like a ponzi bubble and when it burst, the prices came to the reality. For some coins, that were zero.
That sort of growth is not much beneficial to the development and adoption of crypto. That burst has plunged the prices to depression for more than 3 years now.

Honestly I hope those days will make a comeback, 2017 was the best year so far but thanks to ICO, that's what made 2017 a possible year for bullrun and altcoin season, it will be hard to see such again but still possible, crypto is full of amusements, let's just hope for the best

That's the early stage of new ICO and many projects were showed their good performance and some of them were disappear after the 2018's altcoin bull run. In 2019, community fill with scam projects and many investors as well as newbies lost their funds and got rekt. Now, there are also some scam projects, but thanks to all scam busters for their great works. If we want back the golden time of Crypto/ICO/Bounty, we must be more educated about crypto and new users must be aware of the shit projects. Thus, we might be able to see some major events/bull run in crypto.

No way.
If that happens, I don't think that the cryptocurrency projects can grow and better than what we saw in that year.
Everything that we did in the past will give something to us, and the process can not be the same as the past because that thing will grow to better or worst.
Related to the cryptocurrency, people see the cryptocurrency now is developing.
It shows with the many new projects, including Defi, which is new to most people.
We will see another new thing in the future or at least, in the next year or 2 years from now.
We don't have to come back to that phase because crypto will evolve to better.

As much as we love to see crypto coming back similar to the huge hype around 2017 culminating to a new all time high for most of the coins, I don't think we can relived that glory days.

(1) Investors now have matured already, they don't just pour their money to a project without doing any proper research
(2) There are still scam projects, legit projects are affected by the stigma
(3) Projects now doesn't offer anything new, it's just a copy cat of previous projects
(4) Hacks are all over, if you don't know how to protect your assets then you won't gonna stay long in this game

That's some of the factors that I think will not bring back the hype around 2017. And if will take some time before we can see a altcoin bull run. Everything is different now.

The tiktok hype on dogechain makes me rethink. It's also mostly due to a lot of people are still out of crypto and not everyone enter the market on their own will and with their own research. As there are more people who are still naive to crypto and the market, there would be a lot of scams to come. And there could even be more of such bullish pump in the future.

 

We are all want the comeback of cryptocurrency but we cannot tell what will happen on the next years so we are positively waiting on it and we are all know that the cryptocurrency is always do sky rocket on not expected day or month just always trust the process.

It won't come back. Don't think that it's possible because it's never going to happen. People are so full about projects like ICOs and everyone has been well-informed today. But giving the idea of the situation and what if it comes back, let's answer.
Investors will try to avoid it, the hype for ICOs is gone and they will invest wisely this time. If it's not Ethereum or other good altcoins, they will mainly invest to bitcoin.

The spike occurred in 2017 and not in 2016. And those days are never going to come back, for a variety of reasons. A lot of people lost their money after investing in scam projects. Even good projects went down by a lot after the ATH in 2017, resulting in several new investors losing their capital. The best example is that of Cardano, which went down by as much as 99%. The reputation of cryptocurrency received a major hit during 2018/19 and it will take a lot of effort to restore it.

Can we talk what will never happen again? Dude' that time has already passed and we are still on the way to the future. i thought that you can even answer your own question too.
That day has already gone and it's the history of crypto.

if indeed those days come back surely there will be lots of people who buy up as much bitcoin and altcoin, but unfortunately that will never happen again

I agree that people don't have really knowledge at that time and that year is just pure hype and nothing more.

Yes we are in 2020 right now and many knows about cryptocurrency already and that includes the scammers. I don't think it will come back TBH because you already said that people at that time aren't that knowledgeable with regards to crypto and they are just investing in any new projects. Many projects at that time didn't scam people yes but some are totally worthless this time.

I don't see any reason or ways for that hype will come back again this year :D.

If that time will come back like those 2016-2017 history events and it will happen today, I'm sure many will become a millionaire because many people already know what to do, but that was only fictional because even in my wildest dream I never expected that particular event in the history of the crypto industry to happen again, the cryptocurrency market continues to grow in number and size but only in the minimal pace.

I think we don't need it anymore, I've witnessed how it went, how it crashed rather in 2018, it all turns out to be  quick scheme business for most of the team handling the projects. I also hope that the time would come back, but the people now are more wary of things happening in the crypto side, there will be less investors who will invest on project that is not hype or not belong to a worthy team, no more experiments in short. Trading now is more open in variety of forms compare to investment, so there is more chance in trading than investing in my opinion.

Well, the difference between 2016 and 2017 alone is huge. In 2016 bitcoin was something under $1k, it was around 600-700 dollar range, even lower at times, in 2017 there was low times as well, until summer I remember it was around 900 dollars in April or so, yet in December it was $20k, that is over 20x increase in just one year.

So, as you can see in order to go back to those times, we have to first realize what those times were. Sure, there were moments when it was $20k and awesome and everyone loved, but you have to realize that it was also not always like that and there was very few of us, much lower number than right now and the price was tiny compared to what it is today, around 10% of what it is today. So yes, I would like to go back to 20k times, but not to other parts of those years.

I kinda agree with your point. The bubble time around 2017 really wild and chaotic back then. Lot of naive people who didn't understand a thing about cryptos but still invest in it because media and everyone were talking about crypto like it was the next big thing. FOMO is strong at everywhere. Lot of scams and shit coins happened too and those dirty money flow back to legit cryptos that stood at today. Really are something that I doubt would come back again at this age.

No, those days were remarkable which gave limelight to Bitcoin and crypto in general but at the same time there were so many newbies entered the crypto market by assuming it as get rich quick ponzi and some of them were lucky who cashed out before the market fell and rest lost their investment and ended up with hardly 20% to 30% of what they had initially invested. This phase was worst for crypto as the market of cream crowd was disturbed because prior to that we used to discuss about further development and new technologies which will make our lives easier but now whole forum is filled with memeber who are into bothered about quick money, the last bullrun created influx of people with no knowledge.

I think the repeat of late 2016/2017 will be everyone's expectations.  Those were the periods of great happenings in the crypto space.  Even projects with some stupid ideas so to say then, get listed and people invested in them.  Definitely nothing is impossible, but a repeat of those time will be some how hard to come by.

2016 - 2017 is the year of the HYPE crypto currency. but the Hype is not 100%, why? because crypto currency users and mass adoption are still small, different from now, everything looks big, if HYPE comes, I'm sure the price of BTC will be more than $ 20000

Oh the good old days of crypto, even though there were so many scam ICOs back at 2017, investors made a lot of money from successful projects and then just holding some good coins can give good profit. Things have changed, crypto investors have become wiser, IEO has reduced scam token sales to an extent but we hardly see massive price spikes as wayback.

i believe the hype will come again crypto world mate, just increase our patience
but, maybe the hype will not huge as before

Consider those as just part of the history, it's part of the early days of crypto where there's a lot of opportunity to make money for those who have knowledge. As crypto stays and experience the ups and downs, it will eventually matured and I think we would not see that anymore as it was ICO back then who are making the entire market to be very attractive, for now, crowdsale is not that attractive yet, at least in the general view of the market.

Maybe in the years to come we will see some big pump again, but it's hard to predict so holding should be our strategy to prepare for that.

In 2016, the crypto world (especially bitcoin) is not popular enough and those who are involved in the crypto world are still limited Not all people also accept the work in the crypto world. Ten, crypto became booming, very hype because of the BTC price that increased so significantly at that time. SO that make many people, newcomers into the crypto world. They come tot his crypto world because they were interested in the high profits to be reached and gained overnight. Many people could be rich overnight because of Bitcoin and also other cryptos. The bounty hunters can get very legit payment of the ICO projects. Yeah. those are the ears of hype.

But. can it be back to that past time? Personally, I also hope the same. Hope that the price of the coins can reach ATH as what happened at that time until early 2018/ However, I think that it is quite difficult. Why? Now, many people have been aware of how the crypto world mechanism. We cannot be rich overnight. We can face high risk although it may give us high profits. Following the hype is not necessarily right now because many or people are aware of the hype and can avoid it

They can comeback if those projects are serious now with the marker but if they will come to scam people again, then its better for them not to comeback at all. We have to move on from the past and look for a better future, there’s still a lot of new projects coming in so nothing to worry about. You must remember that way back on that time, there’s a lot of scam projects which make people scared to invest.

I think that in 2016. people were lured to make money on them later. Of course smart and experienced people earned money but many lost money. I think if such times come back as easy as it was to earn nepoluchitsya. Although everything is possible, people who have been in cryptocurrency for a long time have experience, Time will tell.

The market is full of -WHAT IT- because it's very unpredictable.
We like to go back of course, or be in a situation where the market is fully bullish, but can we at least think realistically?

I mean, it happened, there was a bull run, some made money, some lose money.
Investment if you did the right thing that time, you could have made a fortune already because altcoins rises even 100 times and that could change our lives, but if we expect that the same thing will happen, I doubt it will happen anytime soon, it could maybe in the future but it will take time and a lot of trials that we have to surpass.

The whole crypto market have grown so much that i really dont see things coming back to what it was. People have gain knowledge and they cant be trapped like before And lets be realistic 10X and 20X are really kind of gone these days

Because of investors clever mindset, scam projects has been lessen and being filtered safely. Holders is now taking more strong decisions to be patient, instead of having panic during price fluctuations while the value declined so bad. This is now regaining people's trust in respective community.

I believe that many changed in cryptocurrency a long ago from now. That 2016 crypto is the time that cryptocurrency starts to bloom and there are also many inveators enlightened about it and earned in thenlong run.  However after that, there comes many scammers and fraudsters in crypto, so that's why some several investors losses their trust in crypto business.

If that day returns, I think a time when there was rarely a project scam that might have been there and it was very small, and I remember once when I first participated in an airdrop and bounty where it was very profitable for me.

Those days will never come back. As many bubbles in the past such as tulip bubble and dot-com bubble, the market keep running after the all-time high price but it almost can not reach all-time high again, because the FOMO mentality of most people has gone.

In 2017-2018, many people making money from crypto. In 2019, people started to lose their money because so many scammers tried to offer them to invest in their projects. Some people got trick by the scammers, and they spend a lot of money that they already collected from 2017-2018 because they think that they can make another profit. But then, the scammers run away with their money, and they don't know how to get their money back. So that makes people afraid to come back to the crypto, and now, maybe they are only waiting for what will happen to the crypto.

If those days will come back again, I think what happened back there will still happen the same as before. People are greedy and as long as there is money involved, there will always someone who will take advantage of the situation. Also, those experiences we had will never come back or happen again because there are no investors are interested anymore.

   If we went back in time with this experience we would know what to do! We would sell everything we have, but any coin or an
alt-coin, and we would sell in 2017! After that in 2018 we would buy back some coins, and we would keep them for this year
now.
   Now when we know what happened it's easy to say what would we do if we could travel in the past, but it's not possible. It
would be better for us to focus on trying to predict which alt-coins can have a great future and invest in them now.

I don't know whether such years will return or not, but I hope that they will return soon whether this year or in 2021, I honestly wait for that. although it looks difficult because now there are enough scammers trying to use crypto, so I think investors will be very careful in choosing projects so that the popularity of crypto is difficult to achieve as in 2016-2018. however, it will return when the price of bitcoin reaches another $ 20k.

If you want the market to return to 2017, I think we must first remove all scam projects from this market. Then the new altcoin market can develop and investors will fully trust those altcoins. Altcoin scam is killing this market

They have tried to return the hype but failed. As you can see, there were lots of revisions of projects from ICO to IMO and IEO just to remodel old ICO. But it is hard to make a come back, the reputation of it today was ruined. And there were just few that was successful.

Time will just tell if investors will get interested "again" for some ICO projects which I highly doubt because there are new projects that are better ones.

The problem is projects and even crowdfunding is not the same as before. People had lost their faith in it due to the number of projects who had run and scammed funds. The number of scam project tarnished the name of crypto specifically in investment. But still, it is good to know that there are still a lot of projects blooming given the current scenario.

investors will definitely compete to join one of the bounty projects that have good prospects for future investment, and I think this forum will also have many participants who want to participate in a project.

I would love to call 2016, 2017 and even the early days of 2018, "the years of Lambo", because during these years, cryptocurrency investors became so rich that buying Lamborghini was a normal thing.

During those years, you could invest 500 dollars and cash out thousands of dollars in just a month, so what went wrong?

The truth is nothing really went wrong, reality only set in, and cryptocurrency has evolved into its next stage. You may not be able to cash out as big as those days, but one thing is for sure, cryptocurrency has progressed.

I don't know if those days would ever come back, but I know there's going to be better days.

The problem is what will cause the next bull run? Those people who already in cryptocurrencies are no more interested in buying more cryptocurrencies. We need to attract new people, and for this, you need real fundament behind the cryptocurrencies. Something like cryptocurrencies is the future of means of payment and big companies are ready to ensure their credibility.

But I miss the years when there were many profitable projects so many people were interested in flocking to find out more about the world of cryptocurrency, Including me who came to seek profits and trade even though only relying on luck without much knowledge

That will not be easy because we don't know which project will scam people. We only know if that project is a scam in their journey and make the investor disappoint with the project. But not all altcoin is worse because many altcoin are trying to give us the profit, and many projects are still trying to survive. You should be careful if you want to choose the project and make sure you can get much information before you invest.

they are not predictions, just speculation. some people make predictions that will happen in a long time or close. we see from the signs carried out by the project in the update. we really won't know when it will happen. but we always prepare when there will be a big moment.

Big wrong, the crypto market in 2017 has plenty of scam projects too (bitcoinnect, hello?). They even more rampant with scam projects compare it today. I thought 2020 would be a big year for crypto and bitcoin but the covid come in play and f up everything. Now, we're dreaming about back then, 2017. Great!

I understand that you mean if you have more knowledge about how cryptocurrencies are working and if all cryptocurrencies are available like how it was priced by the times of 2016 to 2017, then you will become a bag holder, right? But, I am sure I was having enough knowledge about cryptos by the times of 2015 itself still I did not find ethereum as a good investment or did not get enough money to buy more bitcoins when it was doing under $1000.

So overall, you can still find many similar opportunities to make yourself rich; I mean you do not need to worry on the past and all about the missed opportunities. Because there are still enough high potential altcoins are available in the market and you can invest and make yourself rich; but you need to find the right one.

If the altcoin season do come back just like it was in 2016 or 2017 then you will do a better job in earning and also trading because now you are more established in the community as compared to the year 2016/17 because the time you invested will pay you well now in altcoin season.
The ICO that give you good returns have decreased now because a lot are coming daily and out of which only a few percentage of those projects are only legit and rest are either haphazard that won't make you money or either are scam which can easily be identified right from the start.

Your message subjects and topics aren't perfect. I think so many people had knowledge about cryptocurrency without only newcomers. Cryptocurrency is changing slowly before 2017, the situation was the same in 2013 but not as big as 2017. Maybe now you get the right point, even though let me clear the next flow will be bigger than 2017. Because more investors are already including the cryptocurrency.

The shortest definition  of cryptocurrency is "Cryptocurrency is a platform where anything can be done" more like a new internet. it's pioneering project was Bitcoin whose original purpose is to serve as a replacement to Fiat currency, building by all the shortcomings of Fiat.

Cryptocurrency is an amazing innovation. Cryptocurrency is not quite where it wants to, but we must admit, it has come a very long way.

In theory Bitcoin is simple, you create a wallet and get your special transfer code, it is similar to opening an account with a bank, the difference is that with Bitcoin, it is easier, involves less paperworks and faster transactions.

Once you have your wallet, you can either mine token (which involves a lot of technical processes) or buy Bitcoin from an exchange. Over time

With more investors to come inside this market, the chance that the value will rise even more. There's a big chance that we will reached
another peak, new ATH i the near future.  The more investment to flow the higher the value it can go, end users plus adoptions
results to a explosive journey, so while you have a chance to store your coin best
to start collecting and treat it as long term investment.

Everyone is obviously ready to face a big moment, but not everyone is ready to face a bad moment in the crypto market, so please wait for the moment of that prediction, but don't be disappointed if it turns out that things did not materialize as predicted.

I think no one is ready for negative scenarios. only experienced people always have several strategies. a strategy in case all is going well and a strategy in case everything goes not according to plan.

Yes, it is absolutely true in 2016 and 2017 that were the most profitable for cryptocurrencies. And all projects honorably followed their rules. And participants received rewards according to the rules. And now I think that the time will soon come when the cryptocurrency will again delight us with its achievements.

That was the old-time when many investors were unaware of cryptocurrencies. Now a day almost everyone is aware about cryptocurrencies and investment in crypto space has increased a lot. However having said so, many scammers have also entered in this world and created thinking of uncertainty or fear of losing the investment.  As the crypto market is growing bigger, I think strong regulation should be applied so the keep up or increase the confidence of investors and help genuine projects to grow which can really shine the crypto markets.

This time is already very close. Now there are already many projects that bring great profit to their investors. many new startups give a profit of 100-500 percent after listing on exchanges. I am sure that positive changes in the market are already close

Most projects succeed back on that year, not because of their supposed used-case but only "hype".

With lots of people earning decently during that time, it's easy to attract investors, whatever the project concept it. Those peeps now experience the 2018 bearish market and I think only a few of them stay on the game.

Be thankful that those hype days were gone. It's better to see that crypto is moving forward with real enthusiasts and not just because of hoping an overnight profit.

The projects were already out there that would have made you 2x to 5x your money, its just that they get overshadowed by the huge number of new projects coming in the market every day. The biggest problem right now is that the bounty that these projects provide is too much less as compared to the reward that they are giving in the bounty pool. Also more the number greater the competition of the ICO, so the competitors are making each other loose money.

It is the utmost desire of everyone that cryptocurrency should return to the days of old when the rate of profit making was at its peak. However, no matter what the present condition of crypto is now, there is still a high possibility of having crypto shooting higher than the way it was in 2016 down to 2018.If this happens, I know this will incite many people to want to get involve in cryptocurrency. Also, a lot of beneficial bounty campaign programs will start to emerge alongside with it because everyone will be so concerned on how to make profit. We need to keep our hope alive in cryptocurrency believing that better days of better profit is ahead of us.

It all depends on us. new projects that come will become junk when they come to compete with other projects that are already on the market without a good innovation. whatever our investment, please determine your own based on your desires and abilities.

These days are what led to this day.  There were too much hype and mostly resulted to nothing. There were many investors blindly investing in hyped projects. It didn't work out so well for many. But, there are better crypto years ahead. Years,  when great ideas will be invested in and supported. The old days won't come back.

Back to 2017? it is very difficult. All things change as time goes by, now investors are entering the maturation stage, many people are already involved, it is very difficult to create massive hype like today, in short, we are approaching the saturation point.
However, that does not mean there is no hope. Remember some time ago Doge to the moon because of the viral TikTok video? from this I conclude there are still niches that can be optimized to arouse market interest, mobilize large numbers of masses to join. Apart from technical matters, this also requires luck I think.

Of the other projects come to compete with the existing projects then there must be something wrong with the project that is already established in the market and if the other team does it right what the former was unable to do then I am sure the new project is going to succeed, but these new projects don't understand this thing many a times that they should mind their own business and do their work and due to not minding their own work they loose the interest and this becomes the number one reason for demise of the project also the fall in price of the token accompanies it.

it will be great, and there will be a lot of difference if the situation returns again. crypto investors have matured in making decisions, meaning they will be more confident in determining their investment. failures like the past few years will not be repeated, everyone has begun to think realistic in exposing the crypto market.

If you understood the idea behind those projects then you will not call for that, people took advantage of the solution that the token market was providing on a global scale and the idea was novel but then the scammers turned on and even if we see a resurgence we will see regulation where the people accepting these huge amounts should be liable for everything and if they are not able to fulfil they need to refund the investors rather than keeping the money they collected.

People had lost their faith in it due to the number of projects who had run and scammed funds. The number of scam project tarnished the name of crypto specifically in investment. But still, it is good to know that there are still a lot of projects blooming given the current scenario.Those people who already in cryptocurrencies are no more interested in buying more cryptocurrencies. We need to attract new people, and for this, you need real fundament behind the cryptocurrencies. Something like cryptocurrencies is the future of means of payment and big companies are ready to ensure their credibility.

Indeed it just good to bring back those memories in crypto but those days we're gone and people really benefited from it. As always wish by others to bring back the old times we're prices are in bull run state. Instead of thinking those days in crypto why not search further for a good project to invest in. Also the good times in crypto will come it just take times.

the market is cyclical and the return of the same positive times as 2016 - 2017 is also possible. I think from the start of 2021 we will begin to observe a very large phase of market growth.

Crypto market is growing every year, but not always in terms of price. Some years are very good for cryptocurrencies when the price grows exponentially, we have bad days, but in the past 10 years we can see that we have a good direction, nothing can change that direction and it's why I believe that we will see even better days than we had in 2017!

I always miss 2017 Crypto where ICOs were real and many that invested gained back not like 2018,2019 and 2020 is partially good because scammers didn't see many to scam anymore. Like you said, we have started seeing some changes as people are aware of scammers and their ways of scamming.

There is this saying that what will be, will be; it doesnt matter what influence or what time it happens; if projects from 2016 are re introduced back in 2020; the solid projects would still survive; while the weak project misses out; there is no escaping that. No matter the hypes and glooms; a bad project will always fail; could only take time.

During those years, the market is in good condition. Many investors engage themselves in crypto due to the hype and making profit is the main reason why they invest. But after that the market slowly turn down and many investors lose their money as well for not doing a proper research and just going with the flow because of greed to earn. It would be better if we invest because we understand well the nature of crypto and not because the market is bullish thats why we are investing. We cant turn back time, and we must learn from the past that the market is unpredicted and has risk so knowledge is important.

Are you saying the hypes of cryptocurrency?  As far as I know, the continuous flocking of new project, scam or not, does not stop.  It is the hype that revolves around the market that waned.  Aside from that, people are more knowledgeable today and won't easily be hyped with the same old strategy done on those golden days.  Also, new investors are much careful now since they learned from the experience and losses of those who were late on the scene during the 2016-2017 hype.   So I guess we won't be seeing this kind of event for sometime until the market performs better and the project developers delivers so that the news of profit of people who invested in those project brings another hype to the market.

I really wish the good years of cryptocurrency can come back, everything was cool and smooth in 2016-2017, years of good projects, nothing like rapid ICO Scam, investors was very safe until early 2018 when alot of people started flooding crypto community with scam project. Am sure better days of crypto will surely comes back.

Let's wait later there will be many Crypto projects will make IEO, we know that currently only IEO projects are trusted by investors, not for ICO. Now we have seen some good IEO projects, and I think that make the Crypto world will shine again. Just wait and see.

2017 was the year I made the most money in this market because any ICO project I participated in was very profitable and I saved a lot of money during that time. However, now that everything is different, making money is becoming harder and riskier, so in any investment, you need to consider carefully because there are many scam projects that can cause you to lose money.

Yes, that's our hope, hopefully in the future there good IEO project so the situation like 2017 can be repeated again. But we also have to be careful because the Scammers also will not stay silent to continue scam us, Maybe they will find a way to scam on the IEO project.

I would love to be able to go back to early 2017. The year 2017 is really the prime of crypto but those days are long gone now and market like a river, you won't able to bath again on the same flow of that river.

Totally agree with you, in 2017 I also made a lot of money investing in ICOs. Most projects were successful and prices increased many times. But when we went to 2018, everything changed, there were scam projects and made me lose a lot.

In my opinion to return back to golden era like in early 2016 to 2017 might be rather difficult. See now many projects that were born both ICO and IEO ups and downs in terms of rampant development and scamer besides most people already understand have the knowledge and how it works. I really hope to feel back in the crypto phase like you said.

we all hope like that. I really hope that this year or 2021, things can return to the conditions of 2017/2018. some people think that halving will make his condition almost achieve it. it's just that, if the conditions return, I think the conditions are not as good as in 2017/2018.

Things have been very great with those previous years and i think there are still chances that this crypto market will be very bullish again but definitely not this year. Investors have become smarter these days and even if scam projects are still flooding, there are still a lot of ways where we can avoid them. Crypto continues to evolve and we can expect better days for crypto in the years to come.

No big change gonna happen if an year similar to 2016-2017 comes again. Only thing, the holdings of the wealthy people will reach the peak. During the year 2016-2017 many cryptocurrency investors benefited big out of different tokens same as that of the investment on top listed cryptocurrencies. Now the scenario is entirely different, very few tokens have got good growth possibility.

That time only few people knows about cryptocurrency.I think it won't happen to come back on the past years of crypto. We are already moving forward for more growth and continue increasing of mass adoption. Moving forward not backward, so it 's impossible to happen what you think. Much better focus on your future by looking ahead and not looking back and hoping that it will happen again in the future.

you mean the price ? yes it can but the old skool vibe no that wont happen anymore because cryptos are now popular and there is no such thing to make it unpopular again but you can use the situation like we are on older times and then compare it when we reach the future because the awareness of btc today isnt yet big compare to when we are in the future because cryptos are going to be adopted or accepted anywhere in the world by that time

I have the same thoughts as you but surely this will never happen because after 2017, the market continuously has a lot of big adjustments. In my opinion, this period will certainly return in a few years and you should plan to invest now. Of course, I recommend choosing the top 10 CMC coins because these are the options that can help you make big profits if you have a reasonable investment strategy.

It's contaminated by so many scam projects, plus those hackers who are waiting like a shark to everyone that will jumped
into this river, the time might not the same though opportunities are still there if you are really seeking
for it, no need to live with that past but instead move forward and look for your spot success will follow
to those who are really aiming to get one.

Phase 2017 made the ICO succeed, I also gained many advantages of the ICO at the time. But it's hard to do again like a phase in 2017. We see in 2019, STO is set to be a new trend. STO is more prominent than the ICO. That makes me think since 2019 that STO can enter the next stage of success such as the ICO in the year 2017.

And actually now we are supported many factors to reach the success stage again. Since 2019 many major corporations and corporations will most likely spend millions of dollars investing in blockchain.

If everyone will not be able to bathe again in the same river, then the crypto world will not return as well as 2017, because it has been passed for more than three years and every year there is always a change in crypto.

The number of scam project tarnished the name of crypto specifically in investment. But still, it is good to know that there are still a lot of projects blooming given the current scenario.

Yes it is getting worse the arrival of newcomers continues most of the project carelessly its contents are only fraud that makes a lack of income and makes people reluctant to invest, Honestly I have difficulty distinguishing real projects such as looking for a needle in a haystack

I think of course all crypto players hope that everything will happen again where many rich people suddenly it year, I personally also get big money easily by following bounty and trading, hopefully for this year or the following year crypto will are back at the top

If you want that, then we must improve the confidence of many investors who have lost their money from the scam. In 2014 fraud did exist but was not as brave as it is now, imagine that the scam project succeeded in taking in so much investor money, it greatly affected a project that had no investors. I think the cryptocurrency industry is very dependent on the users themselves, so the current conditions reflect the behavior of the users themselves. Cryptocurrency is built on trust and of course technology.

Yes it was basically a ponzi bubble back then it was like a ponzi hiding in the name of ICO's.
And all of what you said was true they are just jumping on any ICO that they could invest in I wonder how many people lose in those glorious days that you were talking about.
Hunters are earning huge money from the bounties and so does the early investor the only problem back then is who would be the last one to sell.

I think that this will happen immediately after the global financial crisis. when the coronavirus will leave us and people stop to be afraid to invest money - then cryptocurrency will return again

Maybe for the purposes of leverage, going back to 2016 and 2017 could attract a large mass of investors and consequently increase the marketcap. However, the period we are going through is essential for all areas and lines of development of cryptocurrency. The creative sector is finding new ways to develop its projects and so is the investment sector that is understanding that it is necessary to have a product and not just speculate.

The financial crisis hasn't even started yet, it will be a lot of time after which The financial crisis will start and that will be the worst time that we will ever see in this decade after the 2008 financial crisis. We can easily see the price of cryptocurrencies skyrocket after the end of the crisis, but that rise will be a gradual rise which will not be as exponential as we have seen in the past but if we compare it on the macro data we will definitely see that tremendous growth over time after which I think price will reach at least $100k per bitcoin.

Weird since I know a lot of traders back in that time and ICO is more of loss for them tho. Sure people always said about do research first before invest but ICO around that time is mostly scam so you're really lucky. I'm glad those days are long and market is a bit better than before.

Hello there everyone. What I personally would say - the real value solution is coming with makes sense. And I wouldn't say that I am aware of many solutions that bring real value. My own favorite is Centric CNR and CNS tokens. The first token, Centric Rise, is the network's transactional currency - it steadily increases in price hourly in accordance with immutable price blocks set publicly one year in advance. The second token, Centric Cash, is pegged to the first and will freely trade on major cryptocurrency exchanges. Centric is listing on Bittrex on 28th of July, so have a look there and check their website joincentric.com

It is just because of the hype. After ICO was not hype anymore, the hype are moving into IEO, so many people that suddenly jump onto IEO and instantly participated on it even without want to knowing about the project itself. And right now, the hype are currently on Defi project, people also getting into it since there's a lot of Defi project that rised up on it price.

Let the industry go in the direction where crypto will be recognized by government. You will be able to pay with eth for utilities, taxes with btc, and so on.
And how industry is going to do it - that's of course another question.

I believe that we do not need an official recognize of cryptocurrency by the governments. it’s enough for us that cryptocurrencies are not banned by the government.

there were indeed many investors who lost their money due to wrong investments at the time, so there were many big price reductions for coins that had good investment prospects, now it takes time to go back to that time.

2016 is when I started my crypto journey. Really surprised how bitcoin pumped its price from $1000 to $20000 in a very short time. That's is why I am still here holding my crypto hoping that the bullish run in 2017 would happen again. I observed that what is happening in crypto is cyclical so Im pretty sure bitcoin will pump again and much higher.

Why comeback do you mean they want you to scam us again, so many back then are now existing anymore and abandoned, the technology is evolving we don't need to go back in the past we should learn from it and embrace the future, it will not come back anymore because the Crypto structure is very much different today than it was before.

You are right, we don't need to go back. In the past, there is also something bad gold. so in the future. we will see gold and something bad. but we still haven't found the moment. we can only take advantage of what is happening in the market.

Thanks to ICO?? that's what made 2017 a possible year for bullrun and altcoin season??

No bro, ICO is new ways to raise funds, it is not related to bullrun, the most reasonable explanation because the previous halving happened in 2016 and after that bitcoin keeps increases and it takes 1 year before the effect of halving is truly felt. That's why 2017 becomes bullrun year

he judged from the number of successful ICO projects I think. and assume that successful new projects that make bulls run on the market.

As you said, the halving effect cannot be felt quickly. we have seen it in the past. so we don't need to rush into an update published by the project.

I like this, different opinions on this 2016/2017 come back issue since people had different experiences. To some people, they got burnt by scam ICOs and so-called lending coins then. To others, they invested in some coins and got 10 to 100x gains. 2017 especially was a blast for me, I made a lot of profit from NEO, ICX, NEBL, WABI just to mention a few. There is no point talking about a comeback/repetition of 2016/2017 since people had varying experiences, that's my point.

Burn tokens can in time have a very important influence, but when I get here I do not see the efficiency of burn tokens because there is no effect at all, the price of the tokens is still cheap and can not rise to be expensive, very lucky you can get a lot of results from altcoin.
