Bitcoin Forum

There is not enough enthusiasm in crypto to see 10K BTC at the moment. Most dudes are swing traders and Institutional money will not entertain investing into a market whereby the Whales manipulate.
The equation has changed and you need to grin and bear it for the moment.
Best bet is to buy a coin with good fundamentals that has enormous potential.

Many coins have half baked tech and will be taken over in the future.

I don´t think so, the good times are yet to come, there are very serious predictions of an increse in cryptomarket assests and it is the time to catch the train.

At present in a bear market, bear market has been for a long time, although I in 9 k for the bitcoin, but I don't regret, I always watch the bitcoin in the future, so I would like to hold the bitcoin for a long time.

I sold at 9600: it was a gut feeling that something was wrong. Bitches from this website said I was nuts: This space has many people who do not understand markets and how they work. It is sad!

Definetly its true that glory day's are  gone for us now,and bearish in the market is what we feel us this moment,but all this things is temporary because we already know that there is coming bull run,even i dont know the exact month of when this implication begin,but my faith is still there,i never step aside to put all my dreams to nothing,thats why im still holding my faith to cryptocurrency.

this time the market is about under control of the manipulators. The latest news about the bitcoin can't be classified as security doesn't even enough to give a stable price. Look at the market and how more manipulators are creating another bearish trend again. The market is so unhealthy right now.

I don't think the lack of enthusiasm is the reason for the current crypto downtrend. The enthusiasm is always there and I think it's still growing. I can show you some examples to prove this:
- Bitcoin and crypto news are all over the mainstream media all the time. Every time Bitcoin made major price action, it'll be covered by the media.
- ICOs are still popping up with no signs of stopping despite SEC rules, etc
- Great development happening with LN Bitcoin!
- Number Bitcointalk visitors doesn't dropping much :P

You shouldn't compare the price with ATH. The ATH is simple a craze, FOMO fueled by institution picking up Bitcoin. Compare the price today vs a year ago. BTC was trading at $1,xxx in June last year. It was still a 3-4x return. Great, right?

Well it was close to $10k just a few weeks ago. There seems to be a lot of good news recently so hopefully the market picks up soon.

When some institutions invest in cryptocurrency, they are whales. We just don't see it. Although the recent market conditions are really bad, I think it will soon be okay, and this week there are a lot of good things. news!

Bitches: You can not rely on what the price of an ALT was at the BTC high of 20K because 20K is not in the equation for at least a year or more or maybe NEVER!

Now in the market a lot of different coins and to choose really good and perspective is very difficult, therefore all are traded already known and coins and those that are on the market

I think it is just a natural market circulation. It had been a fruitful year for investors last year, so it is just normal to have some market correction after the bull market. The cycle will keep going and only patient people will be rewarded, so just keep holding.

A professional investor will not get involved in this circus as it stands: Wake up bitch!

The only thing that is blocking the growth of crypto are government policy. The one who controls that Bank does not want to lessen their control of money.

There's always a rainbow after the rain. The lower it goes down, the higher it will bounce back up. We shouldn't be worried about this since we all know that crypto is very volatile in nature and there's always the possibility of going back to those values above $10k. The whales are just waiting for weaker hands to fold their cards for them to pump btc back up so take advantage of this dips and profit more in the future.

Hold: Tell that to be people that just saw their portfolio go down 40 percent: Wake up!
This market is in a medieval stage and so is the Technology!
None of these coins are making money: They are simply cash cows for the promoters by virtue of the fact that as long as they sell hype the price maintains itself or goes up. The coins need to turn a profit in their ecosystem!

Spot on there, people forget that it's still 3x more then this time last year and the consent main stream media is showing that it won't just be a bubble, It's here to stay. Take the opportunity to find some solid project to invest in why the price is low again.
Myself I have a few locked in knowing that years down the track I'll see the real rewards, so current prices don't bother me. I just top up with BTC, Eth, FGC and NEO over the last week, so happy times.

This market is destroying its potential: The media is full of stories about the negative prices and manipulation: Who would get involved in this BS: Think like they do and you can see where the market is going: DOWN!
A price movement up is just FOMO what I said is reality: Reality includes Retail and Institutional: Wake up bitch!

You picked the wrong coins: see you in hell and good luck!

You might be right with your statement. It will not forever be a straight way to the top, situations like this should happen in order for crypto currency world to grow and be adopted by merchants, corporations, and institutions. Who knows, they could be buying discreetly to not make it obvious to the public so that they could get lots of holdings with a cheap price.

I think the glory days is just beginning. Because now we can buy bitcoin and altcoin at lower price. And wait until their value recover. And we can be rich when they grow again.

Yes, this is true. I strongly agree with you mate. Let just not pick coins that are only focusing on market but not prioritizing their own project development. This could be said that investor invest not only for the market profit but in what is in the project to be used.  

nice term AT THE MOMENT, let us be positive that this time is hard time for the bitcoin to have a value like for the past year it is better for us to wait and hold until the moment that bitcoin reach the top again.

It depends on how you were going to invest your money in cryptocurrency. If you want to invest in the long term, then you might not sell, as in a year or two Bitcoin will be more 3 - 4 times the cost. Of course, it is better to withdraw your funds and buy Bitcoin when it will be cheaper, but not everyone can predict what will happen to it in a day or a month. But the General trend of growth will still continue.

That is probably true because no one knows what will happen next. But I know for sure the coins will be back on track especially top coins. We should keep on buying good coins and hold again because we don't know when it is too late to buy coins. The season where you can buy more coins is now.

Wrong Bitch: Take price out of the equation and look at the graph from BTCs conception. If it was a graph for popularity BTC looks very unpopular.

Tell me what you think are TOPCOINS.
Top coins fo not take 20 minutes for a transaction and top coins do not have security issues like EOS.

As and when we get regulation I think more institutional money will start flowing in. I'm waiting to see what happens to the proposed bitcoins ETF and the Goldman Sachs crypto trading desk

An EFT that is heavily promoted is the only thing that can save the day: A FACT

So much fall in a short amount of time gives us the hints that Market will be get back to its glory form soon. Also I have heard many experts said the same thing. In this period people are investing with all they have. After that it will rise again.

After the positive announcement by SEC, there was a greenery in the market and market seems to absorb the positive news. The glory days are not gone. The volume is at ATH in OTC trading. Big guys don't trade on exchanges, but go OTC. Also, a report from Thomson Reuters states that institutional money is waiting to enter the market and many are expected to enter by October. They are just waiting for a trend reversal. Indeed, Bitcoin went for an extended bear phase, but the trend is expected to change in second half of the year.

The reason is that nobody knows what will happen next. Uncertainty. But we must continue to buy good coins and keep them until better times

You should remember one important thing that only projects with working product, great idea and strong team can become really successful and make monry for investors. There are a lot of scam projects and one thing you should know is that your money have to be invested in strong projects and not in speculation. I recommend you to look at Remme project with their enthusiasm to make authentication better using blockchain

Everyone has it's own opinion and we should have to respect their views. In my opinion, I have to disagree that the glory days are over for btc and alts wherein this is the time to buy such crypto's at a lesser value and just have to wait until it makes a full recovery. Then the good thing is that once it had fully recover, good profit awaits for those who continued to believe that it will happen soon.

I think if believe blockchain and bitcoin, then you should ignore short-term fluctuations, BTC and encrypt the glory days of money market is not over, at present is just a correction, hold is the best response.

coin with good fundamentals, what kind of coin do you mean? give an example, so we do not choose wrong.

Good News? Market is going down more and more!

I actually agree with you on this one. After the crypto rush that happened in 2017, I guess that the only ones left to buy crypto are institutional investors, but they will not jump in until the market gets regulated, and the risks of market manipulation are lower. Until then, we will probably just have "swing traders", like you said, playing with the market. Since they keep buying and selling, they can't make the market grow, because the money just keeps jumping around.

This doesn't mean that it's not worth investing in crypto, because the coins with good potencial, like you said, still have their fundamentals intact, and this makes them a good investment for long term. It's risky, but I think it's a risk worth taking.

You are probably correct!

That is life not all things will be blessed and not all days will be bad to you. You should know how to appreciate the things that comes to yours life no matter how hard to accept it in order to become successful.

I personally disagree with your point of view. Yes, the current cryptocurrency is in a bear market, and the bear market has been going on for a long time, but I always think that this is just a normal market correction, a good opportunity to buy and hold, I am now As we are increasing our holdings, I believe that with the development and application of blockchain technology, the cryptocurrency market will recover and move higher.

Bitcoin was invested, when it was an acceptable price. Bitcoin can not always stay at the peak. It's like a scales bowl. While someone earns on the growth of coins - someone on the other side of the scales loses his money.

In this market it does not matter how steep the coin and what prospects. because they also fall down as well as shit coins with the oscillation of bitcoin

The glory deals are not over yet, not even for the moment. I refuse to see it that way. there are people who are still taking advantage of this market trend, and still making a reasonable amount out of it. So, yeah, the glory days are not over. Even though we are waiting for a better market condition, for now, there is still some gold to dig.

As long as this market is still volatile, there will be people who will gain interest by manipulating the market. This situation will not disappear, so we should not be too pessimistic. We only need to be patient and wait for the market to rise again, although this time may have Some are long, but the bull market will always arrive.

I agree. The glory days are gone for NOW because crypto is passing through a decisive phase of existence. It is either going to perish for good, or become transformed towards a stronger, more secured and more accepted stage of existence. And I cannot say which way it will go.
So all enthusiasm about cryptocurrency should be put on hold.

We are in the bear market right not. The prices of crypto are really in the bottom (though not as low as the early days of crypto) and I think it will continue in the coming days. We really need to be patient and hodl and wait for the time that the market will correct itself and raises its prices again

Yes, the glory days are gone when crypto brings a lot of goodies. Gone are the days when we people earn big amounts of money in crypto.

Glory days are gone, but only temporarily while the market recover and turn into bullish again.
Things in crypto change in cycle  and it is normal that after the storm shiny days will come soon.

Market is  bad for now, but in crypto market a preparation stage for new glory days. We should wait for good days, be patient, prepare a good portfolio.

It has gone for a moment but it will come again in near future. As the crypto market is volatile so we can't expect a bull market for a long time through the bear market staying a long time. I hope the bull market will come and recover everyone's hope and believe! Th crypto market is recovering slightly, who knows it can be the good start!

There are so many controversies right now about where the market is going to go that no one knows who to believe. I for one, choose to be on the hopeful side and hope that it will rise above our standards.

I don't think the lack of enthusiasm is the reason for the current crypto downtrend. The enthusiasm is always there and I think it's still growing. I can show you some examples to prove this:

yes I agree with you, especially this sentence LOL
and the most astonishing thing is that if crypto really starts to be worthless, why does the incidence of asset theft occur more often? isn't the thief only going to great lengths for valuable things?

The crypto market is undergoing a very turbulent period and a strong bearish trend, but the long term continues with excellent prospects

 I disagree with you on this, the good days is still coming and there are many notable forcasts of an increase in the overall crypto market capitalization and this is the best time to prepare for those days.

I think cryptocurrency is still ahead of us. We still have good days and great prices, now it is better to buy more coins and wait. IMHO

Ah I agree because last year crypocurrency was rocketing over the moon and most of the investors are millionaires today it may be considered as a glory day. Everyone was hoping this year too it will be the same But now the market is very tough struggling every moment. Well let's hope for good as the Q4 is going to Start.
