Bitcoin Forum

The whole market follows and depends on Bitcoin, thus Bitcoin can't pump unless something new happens. The word on the street is Bitcoin is a dead project. Will BTC death free all the markets or will BTC take down everything with it. Do people really believe that Bitcoin has a  demand from institutions with all the manipulation and no adoption going on? How do we get all the norms to demand the supply and get a bull run going again?

Which streets are you hanging around on to hear such nonsense?
I agree that bitcoin and altcoins need to decouple, and more fiat pairings will achieve that, but bitcoin and bitcoin adoption is only becoming more commonplace and widespread.

Be patient and believe my friend

Not sure if bitcoin is really a dead project haha. But yes, unfortunately bitcoin going down affects the entire market bringing down everything else with it.

Basically, Bitcoin can die only if some more technologically improved and conenient cryptocurrency replaces it. Despite we can see some bitcoin competitors which have various advantages over it, they are still too weak to replace btc.

Bitcoin demand and supply is determined by the traders demanding it and the miners supplying it. It is not a death project and like all coins it don't just go up forever. It will definitely go up and come down.

Bitcoin has been pronounced dead since its advent. Its really on the street that it is dead only by those who are naive of the coin. But for those who really understands how things work in crypto will say bitcoin is a great coin. Obviously yes, bitcoin will take down all coins along if it is to die.

This is a good question.

But first, we need to look at a couple of factors.


1. Why is Bitcoin a dead project?
2. Who says that it is?
3. Is there major adoption for the technology of the blockchain?
4. There is adoption for Bitcoin across the world. Is it being used? Yes.



The fact of the matter is that the blockchain is a new technology. Individuals and governments are still getting used to it. They wonder if they will be able to utilize and save money, how will they able to use it to be more efficient?

Then individuals may look at cryptocurrencies. They look to see if it has utility if it is a store of value or something else.

As governments and institutions get involved, a process that doesn't happen overnight, Bitcoin will continuously see growth in its main use case as a store of value.

My sense is that we were spoiled by the quick run-up last year and we want to feel that high again. We want it and we want it now. But we may not see it until more people figure out how to progress and really move forward with blockchain technology.

It is no uncertainty that bitcoin truly is something of a wonder especially considering that it is considered to be the leader and the face of the cryptocurrency market. Thus, it has some lingering and uninown influence over the other coins as the rise and fall of it also shows the importance of the whole cryptocurrency and if in anyway bitcoin is dead it can drag the remaining coins with it but not for death as I still believe that the other couns are separate from each other

Bitcoin is not dead because too many people are holding massive amounts of fiat value in btc. For it to be truly dead millions of people would need to divest themselves completely and the exchange rate would need to go to zero.

Bitcoin is pegged to the US Dollar. Bitcoin is a cryptocurrency fighting for market share as a useable true currency. Pumping bitcoin is called adoption and that takes time. Altcoins are piece of shit scammer tools designed to make scumbags quick money. Shitcoin pumpers peg the value of their dog turds to bitcoin. If they didn’t their scamvention wouldn’t have any value at all.

I think you are mixing two very different concepts:

- Manipulation / trading
- Real world value

Manipulation is what you get with a "so-small" market, used as a playground by some tired of NASDAQ, so nothing to really worry here, as it will certainly go back up, as it always does since 6-7 years.

Real world value is what Bitcoin, Ethereum, and all other altcoins that are not scams are beggining to have. Like it or not, the blockchain has other uses than markets and virtual uses. It IS useful. The thing to notice here is that it is young, too. So the best is to come. Mass adoption :)

Make your bet. I am an optimistic person

what you actually find is that decoupling altcoin<->btc is the cause of the stagnation

in the past to get ether/other coins, you first needed to buy BTC with fiat (btc fiat price goes up) and then btc is taken off the btc-usd market to hand btc to ether market. (again less btc on the USD market, btc fiat price goes up)
those selling ether for btc then hold btc. thus keeping supply away from btc-usd (again less btc on the USD market, btc fiat price goes up)

but now people can buy ether direct via USD, so the arbitrage to ether via btc has not occurred.

that said. btc's price has seen health climbs
2016: never below $300
2017: never below $900
2018: never below $6000

and as the 'buyers remorse' support gets tested. where people refuse to sell for less than it cost them to obtain it. and also the impact of hashrate rises causing mining cost to rise we shall se positive movements in btc.

but with all that said. we really do need devs to stop trying to develop crap features that only help altcoins and offchain multicoin networks grow. and instead concentrate on real bitcoin onchain scaling and scurity and usability

if I had to sacrifice bitcoin to turn on another altcoin, I think that's impossible. Bitcoin is an example for the next generation, but it does not have to turn off bitcoin.  ???

Free from what? from bitcoin. Maybe, on a month or so. Before the cryptocurrency goes down with it. Panic would occur and every investment be withdrawn. At this moment that I’m referring to, not in the future that new main coin be created or surpass bitcoin. Nearly 50 to 100 years from now.



Nope, the people demanded it. Institutions are riding on it to profit. No adoption? Your living as a caveman.


(Space) stop posting negative post that can give uncertainty and fear to new one’s.

You're too dependent to events and news. Bitcoin is still reliant to market's supply and demand although those things give affection.
What street is this? Wall St.? people there are no coiners.
Bitcoin will take down every alt coin not every market.
It's mixed up, manipulation and adoption but we certainly believe that there's effectiveness in adoption.
Look to the charts, after the dip what's next?

First of all i don't see any sign of any actual dead bitcoin. That is  just some rummer by some believers. Anyway I don't think bitcoin will go down any sooner. Maybe their are some good altcoins in the market but its still impossible to overcome that bitcoin nightmare just because it has a lot of popularity and market demand just the same problem we are facing with banking system.

I don't think bitcoin nowadays is already going to be dead just because the market had suffered a huge bear market.  I think one factor that affects the bitcoin market is due to many altcoins and ICO in the crypto market where investors had been lessen instead of investing it with btc,  they had invested it on altcoins and new ICO's. But I personally believe,  bitcoin will be back and will continue to grow more in the coming months.  

   I think bitcoin is not just the reason why market now falling down. It is because of the people using it and altcoins. The people behind the crypto is the one who is responsible for the decreasing and increasing of market price not only bitcoin. The value of bitcoin and altscoins always rely on the flow of demand and supply whatever other reasons you could say. But i believe market will move upward before end of this year,we need more patience and we need to grab this opportunity to buy more coins in the market then invest it.

Bitcoin is now rumored to have been controlled by whales, where they can conveniently pump and dump bitcoin for their own benefit,
waiting for these whales to make mistakes, is very unlikely, but we should know that bitcoin is a decentralized asset,
we only use BTC as necessary, and it's called the original market in my opinion

Well because of trading pairs thats why bitcoin and altcoins go on the same tract. But there are always exception to this. We need positive news to go about putting back bitcoin on track. The SEC is trying to look at possible manipulation by whales. But we already know these things exist.

Well, bitcoin's dumping now really affects most of altcoins and people. There are bad and fake news are spreading now thatms why people are losing hope with their bitcoins. But what we should know is bitcoins is decentralized coin and it's price is volatile. We just need to be patient to hodl our coins because we all know that bitcoin will bounce again.

Being the first, highest price and most popular coin then yes it is true. But, ethereum(ETH) is also available now so it won’t just follow bitcoin all along. Maybe majority and eth have a share of the price of altcoin as this two are both used in a project development and investment aspect.

The future of other coins 90% is anchored on what this two main crypto coins prices. Then we can conclude that bitcoin will always have highest effect on the market today and in the future.

All of these happen because of us, we are the victim of our fault.

my opinion if Bitcoin die then altcoin will stay alive and develop because altcoin is an alternative of bitcoin. but if bitcoin is understood then both will stay alive because bitcoin there is a key or icon of cryptocurrency

This series of events seems almost impossible to me. What would kills BTC that could also keep alts alive?

Bitcoin will never die or at least it may take a few decades to be dethroned by any altcoin. Current market situation may seem bad but surely another bull season is coming soon. We gotta extend our patience.

Bitcoin will die if all countries banning bitcoin,due to the volatality many people are waiting its either to pump or drop.When dropping is occur many investors are buying and when it turns to pump the investors sell thier tokens or bitcoin immeadiately only late people always are affecting on it.You said manipulating thats true i read some news regarding manipulation there are fives exchanges manipulating right now they under investigation coinbase and bitstamp are involve with manipulation not only exchanges also the big whales.

My guy I don't think its everything else because not all altcoin runs on the bitcoin blockchain. But I think Ethereum can cause the fall of most altcoin since nowadays ICO's are made to be ERC 20 compatible.

Simple yet powerful comment. Being patient in this kind of investing is really important. Believing that the bitcoin price will go up again is wonderful. Keep on holding.

i dont think that bitcoin is a dead project , its just some people  spreadings fake news or trying to make bitcoin down and the trust,faith of all who believes in bitcoin .
every body do that if theres a good potential in the future. some others doing thier best just to make there enemy down . just what happening right now , all we need is that if we join this crypto world we just realy need to prove them make faith and patiance .

You're from the media or the government or just paid to promote negativity here? There is no such buzz on any street so your strategy to come here has flopped you may leave and never come back here. As far Bitcoins is concerned people are already investing heavily in it, people are adopting it and it's going mainstream you cannot stop it.

The system that started the digital currency trade is to link all the currencies to the Bitcoin
And therefore advantages and disadvantages, but more importantly
There is no strong alternative that can change this fact
Trying to link currencies with some other major currencies has not yet paid off
Because the major currencies themselves are tied to Bitcoin

As of now bitcoin are continuously spreading and widing. There are the continuously increasing of it's demand and adaptation but still there's a lot of speculations and believe that Bitcoin will end or die. There will be the facts that if bitcoin will die the most of the coins especially altcoins will really goes to it's end that for sure because most of it are really depends only in bitcoin so when that happened the market are automatically will be down.

we recognize that bitcoin doesn't have a developed project, with altcoins that have many projects they develop. but why is the price always pegged to bitcoin? I don't think so. in fact when bitcoin begins to rise, not all altcoin go up. and I think it's time for altcoin to explore their own value without having to be under the shadows of bitcoin.

Bitcoin is the best example of a successful creation,that made everyone whose been in this community millionaires or even richer.There is demand mate,the price will never goes up if there will be no demand at all.Bitcoin is not dead but it continues its purpose why it is created.Its concept and existence brings wealth to each one of us,but we need to have more patience to overcome every bearish market that we are experiencing or to experience in the future.

I whole heartedly agree. If what he was saying is true that bitcoin actually is dead, then it wont make even small movements in the price right? And aside from that it will drastically go down to the smallest possinle value, and to think that it will drag everything down, i guess it doesn't make any sense at all.

No one can say bitcoin is dead.
Just like with any other business system it experiences ups and downs.
There may be a lot of people who has reservations against it but we also cannot deny the fact that bitcoin is now being supported by a huge community.
Only time can when bitcoin will totally be adpated worldwide and i believe this is prevalent.
We just all have to wait.

I do not believe it will die, because all transactions in the deep web must go through the BTC.

Nice topic to read actually and I have one news for you! If you need my recommendation,  I can say to you that you need to study about Socratus. It is a platform for insurance companies that was created in order to make the communication between customer and insurance company more convenient and simple. It helps to get read of annoying personal meetings and paperwork. With this ecosystem, companies will be able to cut operating costs, create new insurance products, deal with data analysis more efficiently and many other benefits. I really like their philosophy! And I think they deserve investing. Moreover, if the one buys their tokens, they will be provided with an additional discount and special conditions.

First of all I don't think bitcoin will die. But let's assume bitcoin dies. What will happen to other cryptocurrencies depends on the reason of bitcoin death. If regulations have caused this, Others will die too. But the reason can be a better coin that has replaced bitcoin. Even if other cryptocurrencies die or most of them die, new cryptocurrencies will come and will be successful in future.

Not everyone knows this, but bitcoin is still a Beta software. So it is not dead. People are still working behind it(core devolopers). Bitcoin cannot death free all markets. I don't even how that is possible or what it even means. This is so not a simple question but a stupid and a senseless question. The price of any monetary item is derived by demand and supply. So for a bull run, you need more demand than supply, which is likely to happen, but there are people who just send bitcoins from one address to another and fuck basic economics up.

Wait a minute, please reconsider your statement. The first thing that you should understand is bitcoin price is depend on people interest, but since bitcoin is not spread evenly then there some people who have many amount of bitcoin and they can manipulate bitcoin price, and you should know that someone can influence bitcoin price only with 1000BTC . Second, most of bitcoin investors are speculative investors so they are like you and me who waiting for bitcoin price pump to sell bitcoin in the high price. How bitcoin price can rise if most of people want to sell their bitcoin??   Please don't focus in bitcoin price only, but most of us should more focus in bitcoin acceptance by merchants, that's very important.

some news made bitcoin back pumping performance to re-master the market and there are some news that i read to make btc price back. I believe btc is a living coin and will not die because the concept is that all markets rely on bitcoin. such as ethereum, bitcoin cash, ripple and other coins. they have incredible community and developers so if you want to buy the coin, trader must exchange it for btc.

A dead project?  Which one?  Bitcoin cannot be considered as a dead one if theres a community continues using it, as you can see all altcoins prices are depending on bitcoin's price, if bitcoin dies, do you think that all projects behind crypto currency will survive without bitcoin, i think its now. you are so obsessed of it because,  idont know if you are loosing hope or you are getting more losses now on your investment. But considered it as a part of the ecosystem in crypto currency.

Bitcoin trading is pegged to USD, I see no reason why altcoins won't emulate this.
Altcoins suffer whenever BTC market is red, and this is because their trading is been pegged to BTC.
Nobody asked any company to peg it token/coin to BTC, if they want to see changes in altcoin market, they start trading with USD instead of the usual BTC.

Bitcoin plays an important part in the market, if you pay attention to the market you can see the alt rising mostly happened when bitcoin also rise, a lot of people keep on saying bitcoin is dead because it's unable to get out from bear market, but they don't pay attention to the transaction volume, bitcoin still got huge transaction volume, we need fresh fund to support bitcoin so it is able to breakthrough the resistance level, I think if bitcoin could surpassed that level,  alot of investors will come back again

Bitcoin is far from a dead project -- the very fact that we are having this discussion is a testament to the current lack of maturity of the market. Bitcoin is still the leader in the market with plenty of developers working hard to build its infrastructure for mass adoption. While it could lose the number one spot at some point, the project is still very much alive.

Show the beginning of the following lines to be line lines to ETH because it is an toàn and priority is over the Bitcoin. Bitcoin may be die but its line of it will be pump into other coins

A lot of people keep on saying bitcoin is dead because it's unable to get out from bear market, but they don't pay attention to the transaction volume, bitcoin still got huge transaction volume, we need fresh fund to support bitcoin

I think there are many simple bitcoin questions.
first of all the simple bitcoin question is how people use it that they do not have trouble when they invest in bitcoin.Before you invest you should also know the bitcoin cost because many people ask questions they have not yet found the answer It is good to think that you are the only one who can answer your question.

The death of bitcoin would decouple all the other projects from it but it would leave most of them dead.

When bitcoin goes up, the other projects go up because their rate is "fixed" to bitcoins, but then the people holding altcoins might decide to exchange some of the alt for the higher security of bitcoin.

Once bitcoin is finally decoupled from fiat and more tied to everyday items (like a gallon of milk, or the price of a house). The other cryptocurrencies may follow. Such a decoupling would break the strong connection bitcoin exchange rates on exchanges and the value of different currencies.

If anything bad happens with bitcoin and cease to exist, which is very unlikely to happen, most crytpocurrencies tied to it will also fall and few promising coins will survive the onslaught. What will attract investors to BTC is its wide utilization across merchants who accept it. The people should realize the truth about BTC and not just because of the hype that surrounds it.

The answer to all these questions is actually very simple. I can explain in one sentence. Free Market Economy! The market fluctuates continuously until it reaches equilibrium. When equilibrium is achieved, the market calms down and only rational moves come.

People are talking on the street that Bitcoin is a dead project? Never heard anything similar of that. Maybe Bitcoin is surviving the slump in prices this year, which leads to a decrease in people's interest, but Bitcoin is not dead, because too many people are holding massive amounts of him.

I suppose it depends on how you define dead. Since the last major criminal money laundering exchange BTCe was crushed by the USA there is no one exchanging massive amounts of btc. Money laundering was the best destiny and most realistic market for bitcoin.

The months of $6,500 btc price is major terrified investors using bots to prop up the price for fear of losing it all in a crash rally. Most of the major businesses that were accepting bitcoin have stopped. Other than some crazy people in a very tiny country (Japan) using bitcoin I can’t see any major sales market developing anywhere in the world. People buy bitcoin to hold like it’s a gold bar that will go up in value even if it’s never used for anything. That’s simply not true. If it’s never used it won’t go up in price. Bitcoin is still very difficult to use compared to your debit/credit card. The exchange cost and transaction fee adds an expense to routine purchases that makes sales tax and shipping look cheap. Many countries have outright made bitcoin illegal or like Canada imposed a banking ban against it. In another “Trendon Shavers” style major bitscam, billions in bitcoin were lost in an India Ponzi scheme effectively turning off a huge country full of potential users. Monero is more effective for bitcoins previously huge market sector - criminals.

If your definition of dead is not used or held by anyone anywhere in the world then no, bitcoin will never be dead. I still know a guy that uses 8-track tapes to play music. If a couple of people are still using bitcoin then it’s not dead. If your definition of dead means slowly becoming little used and obsolete in favor of newer and better options then yes, bitcoin is dead.

Although this year the market has fallen too long, that doesn't mean that bitcoin is dead. Be patient, bitcoin is a trusted cryptocurrency, and bitcoin is more likely in the future to grow higher.

I do not believe it will die, because all transactions in the deep web must go through the BTC. If you need my suggestion, I can tell you that you need to study about Socrates. It helps to get reading annoying personal meetings and paperwork. I really like their philosophy! Moreover, if a person purchases their card, they will be provided with an additional discount and special condition. But let's say bitcoin dies. If the rule has caused this, others will also die. Even if other electronic coins die or most of them die, new electronic money will come and will succeed in the future. Altcoins bear whenever the BTC market is red, and this is because their trading is pegged to the BTC. Bitcoin plays an important role in the market, if you pay attention to the market, you can see that alt increase mainly occurs when bitcoin is increasing, many people say bitcoin is dead because it can not exit the market. bear, but they do not pay attention to the volume of transactions, bitcoin still have large trading volume, we need new funds to support bitcoin to break through the resistance, i think if bitcoin can overcome that level , many investors will come back again

Bitcoin is not a dead project. The problem today is that we need to tell people about cryptocurrency. There are still people who don't know about Bitcoin, and crypto. If we can spread it, then Bitcoin will grow.

how do you assume that, the death of bitcoin I think is impossible because we can see that there are already many cryptocurrency projects that are running and developing rapidly and all of them are still closely related to bitcoin as a coin if bitcoin dies then they will become a substitute for bitcoin as a derivative. in digital economic transactions

Bitcoin is in a deep fall down but I know bitcoin will recover , you just need to be patient because it takes time. Thats why we need to be understanding in this kind of situation. It will never happen , the death of bitcoin. Just be positive.

It seems like a lot of people are wrong in interpreting bitcoin, initially the vision of bitcoin's mission is to compete with Fiat currency payments, in this case, most likely like PayPal visa or moneybooker.

if it is associated with prices, I think it is normal if there is a fluctuating price where prices will go down and up. This is different about the technology system adopted by bitcoin.

Yes I believe that bitcoin it will recover cause we know it always happen the value is up and down, that's why only we need is long patients and calm for waiting for increasing the value in the market.

there is no death in bitcoin, bitcoin has become a means of cryptocurrency technology in the present and for the future, bitcoin has captivated some people in the world, the current price of bitcoin is reasonable

I've been in our streets for long and no one even know Bitcoin. Even if you believe in Bitcoin or not it will still move forward. The government will not react if Bitcoin is not a threat on their control of financial sector. 

I doubt that bitcoin will die, and more believe bitcoin will survive. Bitcoin has become popular and more and more people are believing in bitcoin because of the benefits it receives, the demand for the market will continue to exist and therefore bitcoin will not die.

It's a bit difficult to get a bull run again, because the current market conditions are a critical dizone, but I still believe that bitcoin will never die, maybe now there is still no news that can raise the price of bitcoin

I think your outlook is negative
It's not as you see it
Yes, there are rejecters and skeptics
But in the end the adoption increases
The convoy is moving slowly
But it is moving.

why you said that bitcoin is the dead project? we can see bitcoin is the great thing and there are many things about bitcoin that we can learn, the question is how? how we can trust about bitcoin? we need to trust in bitcoin to make sure that bitcoin give good impact for us

Well, i agree with you, we do not have to hear the comments of people who are against bitcoin, they will only make you confuse about bitcoin. No matter what they try dump bitcoin it will not affect it, because bitcoin is powerful and strong in crypto world.

the first, if bitcoin dies, the market will not die. bitcoin is a decentralized currency, so no one can control it in the market. the more you buy, the faster the pump will be, and vice versa.

i dont think bitcoin can die, its fresh and a lot of room for develpment in its blockchain itself, it will act as etherium soon to cater smart contracts, bitcoin will be big enough to as technological application it can serve in future, the the only usecase that the commoner see it is for payment which very very wrong

Bitcoin would forever remain the biggest and leading digital currency there is absolutely no qualms about that, the altcoins cant compete with incredible bitcoin. Bitcoin has proven itself for quite a long time and I believe the best most altcoins can do is to follow the good example of bitcoin so blockchain technology can further become much more popular.

I believe that bitcoin and bull run will come at any time. Keep  HODL your bitcoin and you will be happy later.

This is a simple question that must be answered “how to stop stupid people like you posting in this forum”

What word on the street or what street is this Sesame street?Damn you will die first but bitcoin will never be.because future relies on this technology and on this currencies

i think bitcoin will continue growing and it can not die. now with big volume the bitcoin can affect the price of crypto market.
all people still believe in bitcoin and the future of it.

yes, bitcoin takes a long time to pump, bitcoin is not a dead project, if you say that bitcoin is a dead project, then you are stupid.

many people adopt bitcoin and it's not manipulation or formality, but this is a reality. and of course, that increases public demand.

bitcoin will be bullish when we see good signals, such as increased purchases, little FUDs, high demand, and scarcity of bitcoin.

Why btc price is decreasing these days??

If Bitcoin begins to fall, he will undoubtedly pull all other currencies with him, too much trust in him.

Altcoins are not completely depending on bitcoin's price. There are many altcoins which are pumping everyday when their platform is getting developed or their main net is going to be implemented. Also Bitcoin is not dead, yet. Its still young and got lots of space to grow.

Why bitcoin price is decreasing these days??

I think many people don't know how bitcoin works, bitcoin technology cannot be influenced by market capitalization. It's time for you to think about how bitcoin can benefit everyone and not think how bitcoin can print money. Market capitalization on coinmarketcap ( Market Capitalization  (http://https: //coinmarketcap.com/charts/#dominance-percentage)) with the use of bitcoin based on GitHub is different (https://coincheckup.com/analysis/github).

In Bitcoin continue to invest no less, and even more than in other coins, so why did you decide that he's dead? The current situation on the market is a certain stage in the development of cryptocurrencies, because no one has argued that the rate of crypto will steadily grow without periodic drops.

How can something that consistently tops the list of digital currencies in terms if market cap and price/value be dead? Despite of Bitcoin's high market value, it is still considerably the most sought currency in the crypto market. Bitcoin and altcoins do connect with each other in many ways. But I believe that even with Bitcoin's extinction many altcoins will still survive since many of them are independent from Bitcoin. Adoption and bull runs will come naturally. These are not to be rushed since everything goes through a process.

why bitcoin must die, it's like a big tree, where bitcoin is a branch and its leaves, while the blockchain is the root. Bitcoin is protecting all altcoins, and the blockchain is life for new altcoins. then bitcoin must die. It will not happen. bitcoin is an inspiration for all crypto. and crypto growth is part of bitcoin.

Bitcoin is a very good project
In the future, it will be the subject of universal adoption
Because it really serves humanity
We are still at the beginning where scammers find a chance to manipulate.

There are no prerequisites for bitcoin to die. Do not disseminate this information. So far, there is no decent coin that could replace it, so bitcoin will not die.

bitcoin popularity is down right now, because the dropping price since the early of 2018, until right now we can see the price is stuck in that value, so bitcoin popularity is down, but imagine but the price of bitcoin is increase, i think it will change the situation

I believe there would come a time that bitcoin will change the value of will increase. I think it take time this year to pump it’s price or it may happen the following year. It is not dead once good news comes their is a good thing to happen in bitcoin.

Yes you were right the whole market depends on bitcoin,as we can see that when bitcoins value lowers down or goes deep,altcoin alse suffer but we cannot see it as a dead project since everyone around the world had already hold their bitcoins and just waiting for a pump.Bitcoin cannot be surpasses by any other cryptocurrency by now and maybe i the next decade maybe it would happen when adoptation stops

You right. don't blame bitcoin. the influence of bitcoin is very large on the market. but that does not mean that all the falling in the market is due to bitcoin. some altcoins do crash due to internal problems. and one thing bitcoin still has potential. don't worry about it

i think that too,
indeed, altcoin now learns not to rely on bitcoin, they begin to develop themselves with various interesting strategies. i've also seen several altcoins that pump themselves when the price of bitcoin is decreasing. but there are indeed a number of other things that still make altcoin dependent on the bitcoin situation.

yeah, bitcoin will still grow. and maybe someday it will grow even better.

Bitcoin is a modern tool with a variety of properties, so it can make an excellent tool to be developed. Whereas the market always sees bitcoin as having a high value so it is very good for the future. And most of the ups and downs of Altcoin always follow bitcoin. But there are also many coins that have their own policies so that their value does not affect other altcoins.

it will continue as long as there's still people who supported the chain, and new open projects that inspired to contribute more and develop more useful things
around this industry, there should be no doubt regarding to this market as value will continue to grow together with all the alternative projects that will cater different venue for more successful transactions.

The whole market depwnds on the investors, traders and enthusiasts not Bitcoin. Though prices of Altcoins depends on how Bitcoin behave on the market. Manipulation was made by investors not from intstitutions. I don't think if there is no adoption going on anywhere else and for me Bitcoin will pump due to adoption even though nothing new will happen on it's way to the next generation.

In my opinion, bitcoin does look dead because it doesn't know who the team behind the project is, but more people believe that bitcoin isn't dead and still use it.

the occurrence of the altcoin pump is actually not only because of the price of bitcoin, but the big investors and the team are very influential on the price

If you answer the question "do you consider bitcoin money", then my answer is Yes. Of course it's money. Money is the equivalent of the value of other goods. And bitcoin is used not only for speculation, but also to pay for goods/services.

Bitcoin is the money of the future, perhaps not in this century, but ultimately it is bitcoin to replace all the currencies of the world. Do not be afraid of bitcoin, we all need to support it to hurry the process.

the price of bitcoin is based on demand and supply of uses and miner. bitcoin is never death, but always change s as a cycle , going up and going down

Firstly, bitcoin is not a "project" in the general meaning of this word - it is a technology provided by efforts of millions of people. So I wonder why somebody "on the street" (well I understand you mean rumors) would say bitcoin is dead?
Secondly, bitcoin has never been dedicated to use by any of the institutions - it is an alternative financing instrument for common people like you and me, which should facilitate dealing with restrictions imposed by institutions.

Bitcoin falls because bitcoin fluctuates and bitcoin prices will continue to change, demand and supply will continue to occur, and bitcoin still has the opportunity to have such high demand and that will make the price of bitcoin soaring.

I think that there is no place for gossip and skeptics. Bitcoin is a unique project that has created an entire economic infrastructure, and it will never die, and it will always be used, which means that the price will rise.

Bitcoin price is good for current market and it will rise again, it will change the world as a digital world.

Well the only way to get the bull running again is by making sure the is demands for bitcoin increase to a level that can result into significant market rise and in doing that we need more awareness on bitcoin to get to the general public and making sure their are well knowledge on how bitcoin works in other to avoid panic during price fall dou to bitcoin volatile nature.

Bitcoin despite the attacks of  2018 by various government has remain resilience and maintain a modest above the support level of $6K and this  strength has been what is holding the crypto market. If bitcoin by chance break this support all the other altcoins will collapse and the bear will continue to hold the market. We all need to support bitcoin to enable it find its true level. All the necessary manipulation for personal selfish interest should be dropped by those who delights in doing them. We are waiting for the SEC -ETF to resolve their difference for the rally to begin.

If Bitcoin is a dead project then how so many buyers and seller are there for Bitcoin in cryptomarket, Falling prices of cryptocurrencies does not mean this market is going to end, there are many reasons behind it, if you have ever traded stock market such crashes are inevitable, this does not make anything dead, after consolidation phase big whales enter and market starts going to north.

I agree with you that bitcoin must replace world money and I am glad you think like I am very reasonable and must be updated properly

People always spread false speculations saying bitcoin is a dead project. I always get surprised on how shallow minded people would be in this technology advanced world. If you don't believe in Bitcoin, please don't spread false speculations about it.

Bitcoin is leading the cryptocurrency market and this is not in doubt. But bitcoin need our cooperation as holders so that if there are underground actions that some of do that is inimical to the growth of bitcoin and this will always be for our selfish interest. All this kind of attitude should be stopped immediately. If we stay our hands from manipulating bitcoin market we will be surprise how the sentiments will push the price to fairly stable.   

I don't get it!! Why are you blaming bitcoin. Most of people who knows about crypto knows about bitcoin,so if they makes mistakes by trading altcoin with bitcoin instead, it's their problem.

Yes there are so many altcoin available in the market but you should always remember that pioneer is always pioneer. Overcoming bitcoin is only a dream to some altcoin miner, but I don't believe that bitcoin will be dead any sooner. So I would suggest you should do some research on it.

yes you are right, whatever happens to bitcoin will not be able to turn off bitcoin, because bitcoin has no control and all can use it even though it is not permitted by the government. maybe this year is the worst year of bitcoin, but I'm sure everything will end soon and the price will rise again.

currently the price of bitcoin is not as expected by many parties, but even so I think that does not reduce the confidence of most crypto users, bitcoin only requires a little more time to the moon again, so don't ever doubt it

It will last for many years more. Still, all the cryptocurrencies depend on Bitcoin. However, if BTC loses 1-5%, the altcoins can become the bigger losers and get off 10-20% of their "weight".

Bitcoin will never die and if that happens in any circumstances then no one can save this crypto market as more then 50% market share is in the form of bitcoin but that situation never comes as per my opinion.

Yes, when we join in any kind of business we need patients and believed, especially in joining in investing in bitcoin cause in this kind of business we need lot of patients cause we know the market price is unstable and we need to believed and be positive that our investment it will grow and gain high profits.

this is the most logical reason,
but if we refer to the OP post, it is too ridiculous to make useless posts that don't even build education in bitcoin insight

It is quite logical that the entire cryptocurrency market depends on bitcoin - it is the first of all coins and continues to be the leader. And as for its implementation as a currency-this will undoubtedly happen because this technology can not remain in the shadows because it is very convenient for the modern world.

There is no doubt that institutional investors are interested in investing in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. This is written in a variety of media. There are very few effective and convenient tools for fund managers in the cryptocurrency market. They need transparency for reporting to regulators. But there are several new projects that are developing steadily and are trying to solve this problem.

I have no doubt that bitcoin can be implemented as a currency. Yes, this is a very long and complex process because not the whole world is favorably disposed towards it. But we have to use it, it opens up more possibilities than the usual national currency.

The simple answer is that until now bitcoin still has the trust of many people and bitcoin will always be the best of all coins. No one can replace bitcoin until this moment. I still agree with you, if you conclude that bitcoin is followed by altcoin. And what we need to believe is that bitcoin isn't the time to die, and it's still fresh. Let time and atmosphere answer all of these situations.  ;D

Do that believe Bitcoin demand determined supply for follow this people (traders,holders and investment).so don't crazy about it because the down situation will end soon and up come back :-*

I do not see bitcoin will going to end. Satoshi Nakamoto has worked hard for this system and he has a great vision for it in the use of this system for the benefit of the bitcoin users. Aside from that not only Satoshi Nakamoto created a good system instead he also created a lot of business opportunity from cryptocurrency. Many do love cryptocurrency now and of course many will not going to allow that bitcoin will going to end.

Today, bitcoin is a means of accumulating capital for many, from ordinary people to very rich people. It is convenient to own Bitcoin, since it is virtual money and its real owner cannot be traced. The rate at which BTC enters the market is very limited, as is the amount of currency. That is, bitcoin is a limited product.
Advantages of Bitcoin:
    1. Lack of inflation. Bitcoin-system is formed in such a way that the number of coins (1-BTC) grows with a certain speed, which coincides with the speed of gold mining in the world. Since nothing can change these conditions, there is simply no room for inflation. That is, Bitcoin is even safer than gold.
    2. Deficit currency in the future. Since the maximum number of BTC is strictly limited to 21 million, it is easy to guess that the day will come when the cryptocurrency will become much more scarce than today. And this means one thing - a tremendous increase in the price to incredible amounts. Acquired today Bitcoins - one of the most profitable investment decisions.
   3. Absolute anonymity and full transparency. Bitcoin combines the incompatible: operations with cryptocurrency are completely transparent, but at the same time can be completely anonymous. That is, if the sender or the recipient wishes, no one will be able to determine who sent the BTC to whom, but information about the transaction will be available.

I think lots of bitcoin enthusiast are thinking of possible bitcoin price hike. But the question is that, is there any possibilities that bitcoin price will recover again and demand will soon be increased? I think we need to explore everything how we can help bitcoin industry to grow bigger and to exist forever with profitable investment.

Of course bitcoin can lose demand. However, the holders of this coin must have a good reason to refuse it. Currently, the technical component of bitcoin lags behind the technical part of altcoins. But this did not make it less popular. Bitcoin confidently holds its position no matter what. I think that this will continue.

I think bitcoin has a huge influence on other altcoins because markets sometimes are only bitcoin prices anywhere I think there must be altcoin market exchange anywhere and can be transferred to any bank ?? I think everything will change doesn't have to follow the value of bitcoin

I'm not an economist, but if you give this idea to leading economists, they will see this, well, it will be a shock for them. This is why Russia, on a global scale, where the rules of the game are determined by others, is not allowed to grow.

This is very obvious that now the whole market is following the bitcoin graph as now there are millions of people around the world who are investing into bitcoin so now bitcoin is a very huge investment but on the same hand this is also very true that bitcoin is not a dead project and moreover the death of bitcoin is not possible as bitcoin is very sustainable crypto currency but this thing is also very true that few new adoptions are required for the bitcoin to grow further and this is only possible when bitcoin will get legalised all over the world.

And who actually decleared the dead of bitcoin and which word can even describe that bitcoin is death. The fact that prices are low does not mean the death of bitcoin and we all aware of how bitcoin directly and indirectly affect the crypto market and for sure we hope things get better and never think bitcoin is dead and will definitely go down with all coins. As things were good in 2017 so as things are not going welll but not necessary to say btc is dead.

I think some altcoins will go with the Bitcoin if ever the coin will be going dead. But i hope that would not happen though. There is a lot of factors that needs to be consider if altcoins will continue of the project and their token since many traders and investors will take some news on what will the bitcoin will do to the project.

Even there are more improve technologies or token still they can replace bitcoin because once bitcoin die some cryptocurrency will also die. Every days,months and year bitcoin was also improve so basically its hard to predict if bitcoin will going to die. Bitcoin will be still on the top and no one can replace it.

I think your words are true, indeed almost half of the market conditions depend on bitcoin. because to date the decline in bitcoin has also been followed by a decline in the market such as coin-coin declining. so I believe that the development of bitcoin is very influential.

This is really unpredictable. But bitcoin still works and grows not as you say on the street Bitcoin is a dead project. But I think bitcoin has all the criteria needed for strong growth like late last year. Hopefully by the end of the year it will come back, help the market recover and help investors make a profit.

Surely you have already seen that bitcoin is not a dead project. At the moment, his course has stabilized and is not reduced. This suggests that investors believe in bitcoin. I am sure that regulators will soon believe in bitcoin. They just need more time to make the right decision.

Bitcoin will definitely experience increases and decreases in prices, and these conditions are highly dependent on supply and demand, we know that some coins begin to look active and seem to rival bitcoin, even trying to defeat bitcoin. But we also know that the crypto market is always moving in price following the price movements of bitcoin, thus finally we can conclude that bitcoin is the best crypto currently available, and I believe that nothing will beat bitcoin.

I am sure that this is a good opportunity to look for bitcoins and invest and hopefully next year come and fix all the bitcoin weaknesses and prices too.

Those who think bitcoin is a dead project are those that do not understand bitcoins and have never used it before. These same naysayers are those that think Bitcoin is a bubble and will burst soon. The demand of bitcoin will continue to increase as long as cryptocurrency is concern.

"Well" i agree with you losing of people support of bitcoin or cryptocurrency is the cause of cryptocurrency die, but i still believe there's a lot of people understand well about bitcoin as currency and what is the future of bitcoin in this new era of  technology.

I think those questions are mainly ask out of frustration or by beginners though the price depreciation of cryptoxurrency I think it cause by low demand and people lossing hope on bitcoin but for sure bitcoin cannot be dead because is here to stay as long as technology keep improving bitcoin will succeed .

If you really believe in bitcoin — to its potential and capabilities — then you should not listen to those who don't. They're just mad for two reasons: either they once become a btc investor and hold grudge after losing money or they don't fully understand btc's essence. It would be a good idea to stop wasting your time revolving along that "street" simply because it's toxic.

No one knows unless it happens. But in my opinion, I think the market will survive and eth will replace btc (assuming that it remains on the second place).
That was a tough one too. Even how great we introduce the concept of cryptocurrency and how hard we convince others, chances are big that few will only follow. Most of them are just interested on its huge price, nothing deeper than that. Like what happened before 2017 ends, many invested due to the hype it created but ow that btc is on its downfall again many of them backed out that's why the market seems not improving 'til now.

bitcoin as a benchmark for all prices so that bitcoin  is very strong, so it is inseparable because all are interrelated, and in the future bitcoin can become the main digital currency next to altcoin, because with so many choices in the future it's easy, the most common answer it really depends on each country that uses digital currency, actually bitcoin will facilitate all types of business transactions in the future...

Failure to learn is really a canker to the whole crypto space. It is so sad to see crypto users turning away from Bitcoin when there is a dip in price. Perhaps, they had inadequate knowledge in how the crypto market works. Cryptocurrency belongs to the one ready to learn and patiently wait for a rise in price (no panic sellers).

How to save and keep bitcoin to be a good investment...?!!!

Bitcoin is a project that is easy to grow, it is not possible for a dead project to develop, so many people are involved in exploring bitcoin as well as collecting. Here we are challenged to be more creative in managing bitcoin.

I'm curious on what makes Bitcoin the first cryptocurrency that is being used by a lot of people and what makes it different from other cryptocurrency.  :)

I think yes, people do believe on bitcoin. If not, no investors would invest on it. There is time for development and lets help bitcoin for the strong volatile market.

Every grand idea was not immediately recognized by society. Everything happens gradually. Now bitcoin and cryptocurrency, in general, is developing at a very fast speed. Regulation will come, but up to this point we have to maximally develop in technology

The system for electronic transactions without relying on trust that is equipped with peer-to-peer networks uses proof-of-work to record the history of public transactions

of course if we want our investment to be good, we must be clever in processing it and always be patient for all the trials that come to us. the most important thing is that we should not be careless and always be careful with our wallets so that things don't happen that are harmful.

It is not at all important that you and some other people don't believe in Bitcoin.
For 9 years, this currency is constantly growing in price. Bitcoin trading began with $1 = 1.309.03 BTC. Now [15/11/18 at 06:18 PM (GMT+1)] the bitcoin rate is $5 499,74 = 1 BTC. Interest in Bitcoin is growing every year. So your statement that everyone on the street thinks that Bitcoin is dead is not true (especially since you didn't provide statistical data on what percentage of people in the world consider it dead).
I believe that Bitcoin is an excellent means of payment and accumulation. This is the currency that is already changing the lives of its owners and the world in general. Thanks to Bitcoin, a crypto market and new monetary relations in the world have appeared.

To say bitcoin is really a dead project means nothing, because bitcoin is alive for 10 years. People who support and invest bitcoin have right to decide whether it is a dead project or not. Not people on the street.

Well to me bitcoin is not a dead project if you really take your time to study the bitcoin white paper you will see that bitcoin has a long term plans and how it will remain relevant even in the mist of whatever economic situation it fines it self and that is why bitcoin remains ever volatile and decentralized, and the only force that control the market is the force of demands and supply.

First of all, bitcoin is not a dead project, despite its influence on other altcoins, I don't see it bringing them down. Whatever is happening right now is normal and there is no reason to panic.

Since we don't really know when the hype and the demand of people is going to go high again, then we don't know too when the bull run is about to happen again. Holding your crypto assets would be the best thing to do and keep your patience with you.

People know very superficially about bitcoin and crypto in General, even after the HYIP that was collapsed on bitcoin at the beginning of last year. Many people still think that this is a financial pyramid and are afraid to invest in promising and interesting projects. We are waiting for a reversal of the markets and the bulls should show their power in December. Fasten your seat belts, ladies and gentlemen!

I consider btc a very profitable coin with no cons. To my mind, btc will rise in price with time and become more stable than any other coin at the moment. To my mind, we need to use btc for the long-term investment

To be too pessimistic about it, it will be fine
If there is a thought that bitcoin will die, it seems that everything around it will be affected

It can't be a dead project. The market is volatile but this is what we have to pay for decentralization. The prices can’t go up all the time. I think now is only the beginning of cryptocurrency adoption.
