Oh, that was very unfortunate.

If you are able to recover and save the archive post it here so that I can read that article which can boost not only me in terms of remaining optimistic on the market but to encourage my friends who are upset right now.

The people from the bank will have the same statement on how crypto is complicating the market, on how crypto's are risky and so on. They will never say as of the moment that crypto's are beneficial to the people who are striving to get success, why? They are the only ones that wanted to succeed in terms of reading the market.
Crypto's are pulling their potential investors so that will be obvious to have that statement to avoid such incidents to let most of their previous investors, depositors.

If you'll go back the time when bitcoin wasn't adopted by most, it all started in the deep web where its transactions are mostly with illegal stuffs. It didn't killed bitcoin but it's the start although we are in the new beginning where it's now on the mainstream, I think people from there are using something new or they are still relying to bitcoin - I don't know.

It's not new and this is the reason why some countries doesn't have the appetite to adopt crypto's because they only think that it's main use is to purchase illegal things.
Don't worry as fiat money is also use in that way.

Not only for the Filipino's but for the whole crypto community as well.

Getting more investors to invest is a hard thing to do and giving their eyes to a specific place to start their own operation is already a success for the country. But it's not only beneficial for the country but for the crypto market as well, giving idea to the people who lack of knowledge on how crypto and blockchain can be included to real businesses.

Don't expect that you'll get that much coin in airdrops, it's just a simple reward and part of their marketing as giving the people a free taste of their coins.

Many bounty hunters are just selling those coins before it drops and just jump to another bounty where they can get another token. What you guys are doing is also rewarding for yourselves but you are coming to the point that you are dependent on it and your expectations are going up.

If you haven't experienced to buy a coin, use an exchange or buy from someone.

That's also me before when I found out about the time deposit offers of the bank but after conducting a research and inquiry to the bank personnel, they discourage me to do so. They didn't told me the reason behind it so basically if you are thinking that it's profitable to put your money in a time deposit, think again. And you mentioned about emergency fund, why would put that fund on a time deposit? you know the rules when you put your money on that type of agreement.

Who said that? the banks? well obviously they are opposing bitcoin because it's a threat to them so it's not that really new when we hear them say that bitcoin is risky. Every cryptocurrency has their own risk and as the time is passing by bitcoin is being treated as an investment.
The article itself isn't even convincing and was lack of words.

Many doubtful people are keep on asking about if it's time to invest.

I'll tell you that whenever the market suffers, it's the time that you should keep your storage or wallets full with various coins that you think will eventually give you profit.

Please stop creating duplicate threads like this one. 

I don't know why this can be a problem to you.

Just multiply the number of your coins with its current price. There's no need to ask what if the price is very cheap then just buy if the price is cheap and it doesn't matter if you hold a lot of coin. An investor knows what he is buying and what are the coins that has the potential.

The logic is don't sell if you are not comfortable and you are not yet in profit.

Great news, if this will also be reported on mass media like television then the skeptics about crypto's will change their minds and belief.

wvizmanos when you are posting like this news always include the reference link on where you got the copy paste or else you'll be banned because it is plagiarism. Although you included the link on the 3rd post.

I really care a lot when the market fluctuates that much but my principle is as long as I'm holding, there's no harm in it so you are doing the right thing.
As long as I can endure the pain, it's fine to hold and if there's no need to sell, why would I sell?
I only sell if there's something that I want to buy at the expense of some of my holdings.

Don't also let the crowd of negativity drive you down, they are also leading each holder to have the portion of their negative energy. Don't listen to FUD, all of what they are saying will just discourage every crypto investor.
This is the root cause when the market is playing bad, these people who are doing their job of spreading lies and bad news are coming out to add the impact of the red market.

I would like to see and read the translation of that article.

1. This is why the market is unfair for the new projects that are coming out. There are good projects that aren't noticed although they are proposing it the nice way and the content of their proposal looks interesting and does really have the guts to compete the market but because of circumstances such as lack of budget, they never have a way to advertise it.
2. That's a fact, most of the new investors doesn't see the technology, the future and what they are investing. As long as they can see that they can take profit on it, they don't care about the things I mentioned.

Those people who doesn't have time to research on their own and can't type of search engines the things that they don't understand in cryptocurrency.
To the interested parties out there, it looks like there's a competition about this announcement.

I've learned a lot of things in the forum such as trading, holding, being calm when the market isn't doing well.

This isn't the right section for your topic, move it to Beginners & Help.

Yep majority as is.

Correct, if the demand goes high and people are buying bitcoin then it makes the price fluctuates higher. But expect that this won't last as there will be swings that will come. If bitcoin won't fluctuate or it will only move with a positive line, it won't be the best coin of all.

It's due to some of the coins that projected their scammy behavior such as bitconnect.

And you know that once the people see something similarity and they'll compare it to each other as the same thing, they'll think of it as one. Bitconnect scammed, others are thinking that bitconnect = bitcoin so it was affected on what bitconnect did.

Another thing is when others doesn't have an idea on what bitcoin, they'll categorized it as scam.

There is bitcoin.com and it doesn't really support bitcoin now as it's shifted and more focused with their own fork altcoin which is bitcoin cash as stated above, owned by Roger Ver.

Don't visit that website and warn your friends who are newbie to bitcoin, it is deceiving the newcomers for telling bitcoin cash is the real bitcoin which is very wrong.

Bitcoin is the only real, genuine bitcoin and there's no any other coin that is real bitcoin.

1. Law of supply and demand. (Number of bitcoins in the market and in circulation)
2. Volume of trades
3. News
4. Speculations
5. Whales manipulation

Almost the same factors with the others in my own point, these are the things that what gives bitcoin a wave for its price.

I can't compare why you would end up speculating by the month of August and you jump off there from April.

But my point on this one, the strong for this month which is $8,000 has been broken and teared off to $7,500 which made many to be disappointed. The flow of the market is totally unpredictable but what I'm holding right now is what goes up should go down and what goes down should go up. ( I got this someone from FB).
