This is not even about popularity, this is the fact that we are in a bear market but who cares really? We are all aware of the volatility in the first place before even coming into this space and in as much as some people are crying, some are just busy having their normal day going on. It has happened before, it will happen again and there is nothing anyone can do about it.  At the end, it is just all about the future, isn't it?

Lol. I guess they have not yet understand how things work. From the look of things, it is always better to panic when there is even a bull trend and everyone is getting greedy and then be very optimistic when everyone is scared and selling. That is always the best way to make money in this space which most people do not understand. As long as you understand that you are holding the future, nothing should really worry anyone.

It totally depends on where you are and the level of adoption most especially by merchants in your country. If there are places accepting cryptocurrency in your country, then you can easily make use of it for your daily transactions.

If we are to look at it in a general way, we already know hardly will you see anywhere now where cryptocurrency is being generally accepted in a way that you can easily make use of it as a currency for daily transactions except for Japan which I heard a lot of merchants are accepting it since it the regulation news.

If we are talking about bitcoin being used globally and accepted by a large population, then we can say that is possible, but if we are looking at it being accepted by government as a currency as against fiat, then we are deceiving ourselves. I believe bitcoin stand a chance of being used worldwide on a global scale which we are gradually getting there, but that is what it is going to be. While some of us will adopt it, some will stick to fiat and the whole system will keep on being like that.

Bitcoin is even already replacing the internet payment system and that is how I am going to see this whole thing playing out in the long run. No government will even want to replace bitcoin with fiat anyway since it cannot be controlled, so that is one we should always rule out, but in the case of global adoption as an internet currency for some, I believe this is something that we can see happen.

Technical analysis is still better than not even having any analysis to do at all. With it, you can at least still be able to know how to play safe in the market most of the time. Some of us may have had a bad time with TA, but this does not mean it does not still work 100% of the time.

Most times, you will just have to stick with your own smartness when playing the market and see how things turn out and not completely rely on technical analysis. Because no tool will be versatile enough to read the psychology of traders. Yes, what most traders prefer that alone decides market directions.

Well, since we cannot avoid the big trader manipulating the market, we can at least find a way to know what they are trying to do in the market and see how we can benefit from it, which anyone cannot do without some level of knowledge. Trading is a very good one which a lot of people can make so much from the fluctuations, but you still have to be careful as you can lose so much at the same time if you do not have the knowledge.

Watching the market a lot will not help you, you should know what to watch out for in the market that would end up helping you. I wonder why a lot of people always want to trade the market anyway without some level of knowledge and that is pretty bad. It is one thing to want to earn passive income, and it is another thing to learn how to be safe in earning it.

No one should even opt into an investment without knowing how to play safe in such investment.
The ocean is so large with a lot of fishes and it would take a lot of pain for such an investor that ended up picking the wrong fish to eat which is why it is very necessary to always try as much as possible to get the whole idea of familiarizing oneself first and a lot of people usually do not do that until they have fumbled.

Once you know what to look out for in your investment, such as the team, the project feasibility, and some other important things, you will be fine.

Why does he even need TA when he is not asking to want to trade ? If he is a trader, he will not be asking when to buy and when not to buy as he would have been able to make use of his knowledge to make the right decision, but for someone who does not have the knowledge, as long as there is a dip, then they should buy, if there is more dip, then they should buy more. It is not now that matters, it is the future because I am sure it is a great one to look forward to.

Buying with the plans of holding for longer duration is always recommended and for this there will be no need of looking for further downfall of bitcoin prices and anyone can buy at market prices right away. Probably price may fluctuate in coming days but there will be no guarantee for any more bottom prices.

It is just a simple economic stuff that I expect even a basic class pupil to know. Once demand increases more than the supply, the value will rise and when supply increases more than demand, the value drops and on and on. The market is new, we have a lot of people who got in early so they have a stronger hand, it is highly speculative, so we should always expect sharp rise in prices.

Whales are another reason for why bitcoin is having more demands. They do buy in large scale and unfortunately they do sell in large scale. When bitcoin will be getting more established these whales may lose their "virtual power" hence no worries  .

So, you really consider this a job ? And you think merit has turned to a cryptocurrency you get paid for ?
Everyone here is contributing in their own way and if you feel no one is giving you merit for what you are posting as a member of the community, then you can quit posting.

It is a free world with a lot of free information, so begging for merit before you continue posting is absolutely ridiculous. If people find what you do useful, you will get merit, but stop begging for it, as that would easily put anyone off.

There are better coins with better and active community and I do not know why the OP has decided to choose these ones. Secondly, is the OP trying to say $50 or he is actually real about the $50,000 ? Because no sane individual will believe this crap. Anyone who has that sort of money to invest, I believe must be a smart investor who must have had experience in investing, but with these questions and with this his choices of coin? I beg to differ!

Nice to hear, your approach sounds to me very funny but true because you cannot actually win in gambling unless you are just some lucky dude who if not careful will still take the huge winning back to gamble it the more. Some have always been lucky but very few compared to those who have been losing. It is always best to know that the chances of losing in gambling is high and anyone who cannot start with that mindset should better not just gamble at all than starting what they cannot finish.

Yeah, in fact, how will a man in his right sense even allow his kids to make the same mistake he is making unless he is totally cursed by his forefathers ? An addicted gambler even as a father should always know better what he is trying to battle with, so trying to bring your kid into the picture is just evil.

Secondly, if it were to be genetic, I am sure I should have been a hardcore gambler by now, but it is a path that everyone can decide to take in their life and a matter of choice. A child who can see the impact of gambling in his father’s life even if he gets to know he does will never choose that path.

Yes, apparently. One gambler would be surprised that in every little scenario, you can always find something interesting in real life to gamble with friends. I am not a normal casino gambler, but in real life cases like this, you can always count me in and it is always very fun.

I remember having a drink with some of my friends recently, and betting on those to receive the highest slap from a lady by doing something stupid and the winner going away with the entire amount we have all put down; you should see how guys can really get stupid for things like this.

By global regulation, I am assuming you are referring to where all the major countries stand. From that list, we can see that minorities are actually just limiting themselves from the future and they will surely have a change of heart pretty soon, most especially after the G20, and also with the way Japan has been going with hers, it is going to be a case study for others and how to go about theirs as well. So, let's wait and watch, but I know cryptocurrency is here to stay.

Yes, no regulation is going to shake the entire kingdom of cryptocurrencies. It will keep growing regardless of whatever stand any government will impose on cryptocurrencies.

I think you are even understating the fact. Banks are significant more than 50% in our society except we just want to lie to ourselves. I do not see banks being ripped off their position in long time from now. Most especially in places where there is even limited access to information and internet, and in even places that there is full access, some are still playing the traditional card to everything and the prefer it that way. In some perspective banks already tarted to lose their significance from common people's economical aspects. I strongly believe this will keep on increasing in coming days.

Hey OP, a nice list you already have there and I am happy you raised that issue with cryptotpia so that people can know firsthand before even trying anything.

I personally prefer only binance, bitfinex and bittrex while using KuCoin for some alts as well. Also, Yobit is not the only one that is 100% scam, hitbtc sometimes tend towards that area as well, so I would better stay away from them. The other ones you have mentioned though, do not have any good review and in terms of liquidity, I would not even bother except for Huobi that is a Chinese exchange, which I have nothing much to say about that.

That is who he is as he is always busy looking for negativity in everything and I wonder how he keeps coping in the real life if everything that pertains him is negative. I do not know when regulation becomes something that is a problem. Japan has been regulating for a while now and the cryptocurrency space in Japan is doing absolutely well and if at least someone wants to gain attention with bad news, he should try as much as possible to be sensible with it.

It seems some people always allow themselves to get blinded by FUD mongers like the OP until they miss the right thing. Op already missed it a long time ago and apparently has nothing to offer, so I believe whatever comes from him should be taken as nothing. Regulation like 1Referee rightly said is not a problem and in fact I believe it would give the cryptocurrency space a breathable atmosphere for going forward and if OP cannot see that, then I wonder why he is here.

Who even cares? Let the death cross happen, and then we will be gladly buying more at the end of the day. This is just a way to panic some people in the market, but from the look of things and the news going on, I want to believe that we are going to have good times ahead of us from the bounce we already had. It is just plain stupid for anyone to be panicking right now when the market is about to set off for another bull run.

As much as I believe that the 50 and 200MA will not cross on the daily chart, one must also be ready to get careful in the market as things are presently. I am very optimistic though that we won't get to see any doom, but if that happens, I am so sure, the bear rally is going to be a huge one, and that is one that would set us way down lower. Let's just see how this would suffice in coming days.

It is just a matter of patience anyway. We are always eager just because some of us keep looking for a quick profit without even knowing that this is something we all need to be patient for and wait to see how things turn out. We may have seen the way things were last year, but that does not mean that we cannot still see it this year or we may see it, the future is what no one can tell, but one thing is that we can be optimistic based on our trust in what we hold.

$11k may be soon, it may not be soon, but the thing is that we cannot say and we can only hope for the best. Bitcoin is getting stronger every year, and I believe that is one thing we have to keep the hope going. I am not even ever bothered about what the price is right now, because if there is anything that has always been sure with bitcoin, that is the price recovering and over time setting a new record.
