His choice is fair and good for altcoins and he knows what he's investing so there's no need to choose from those set of altcoins. I agree with that, any of the top 50 coins can potentially pump by the investors depending on the positive news that they are coming with. But with your set of choice through XRP, it is currently on 2nd spot on CMC but many thinks that this isn't a good buy. I guess you know the reason why that coin does get a lot of hate.

No price boost as of the moment but instead we got price decline.

Its not difficult for me to say that it will recover because I believe that it will but I can't tell on how long does we have to wait for that time.

Impressive. I'm looking at the coinmarketcap.com few hours ago and I've seen this "crypto.com" I thought of it as a new token but I guess I was wrong assuming that way. That's good to hear that you've been holding it a year ago until now but did you missed the time of selling it when its ATH? 100x is possible but that's only possible to happen if the king starts to act that there's a need to skyrocket too. Well, good luck on your MCO holding. 

I think this is the reason why binance did that.

Banning bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies is the decision they made because they don't understand the possible benefit that it can contribute to the economy. It's still too early to see that every country will start adopting bitcoin. We just can't please each of them, some will do adopt it and will understand the benefits that it can bring to them but some won't really understand and is unlikely to be open with anything that regards to bitcoin/cryptocurrencies.

I hear many good things about Zilliqa and Cardano so you are in both good coins. But if you are into investing with one full blast to any of those coins, I'd prefer to look for a better coin than these coin.

As most of these people are saying both are good for long term but we don't hold the future. But as long as the progress and development for these coins are going to be consistent then you can rake the profits in the future with any of them.

I'm looking for the source of this news. I don't want to be so gullible by just reading what Op shared to us. But its also important to know if this news is real and legit. A lot of fake news are circulating now on the web whether good or bad about cryptocurrencies.

But I think they are going there, the adoption is a big thing and crypto ATM's are going to be one of the biggest industries as well. I have read an article on how big this business. One concern is the fee for withdrawals.

And when these new projects gets into exchanges most of them will start to be dumped. It is not questionable if most of these tokens are dropping after they held an ICO because many don't like those tokens to stay on their wallets. Participating during the bear market would give you the idea that more ETH/BTC you'll invest, the lower value they've got. But if the price of these coins starts to bull, you will only need to spend small amount.

Big news? that will have no effect even there are that type of news there's no swings for the market. But see to it if the news were fake and bad, the reaction of the market is quick like the flash.

It is not the very factor why the market isn't growing, if governments would take action and regulate the market the purpose of crypto's are likely to be least prioritize. But we don't have choice if we want the market to grow.

I guess OP has a plan that whenever that 13 ETH is more than the worth of the car of his girlfriend then that will be the budget for their marriage. It's not his car but there's a consent from her girlfriend. I wish all the best for these people who have sold their properties for crypto's, bitcoin or ethereum.

That would be a crazy move if he's going to use his credit card to invest in ETH.

We are half of the month and still there's no change and possible opposite movement for the bulls to come. People who are losing their patience with the market can't survive and up to that point where the drops are quite high, they will never survive. They can't take the bear but for us who have been experiencing this bear market not only for this year but for past years, we are aware of what to do.
Holding is the best option so far like what everyone is saying.

All of the time bitcoin is volatile and it can hit lower than your expectation. Buy only if you think that you are ready to do so but if not then you should stay away and don't do any unnecessary moves that you will regret later.
Yes, it could drop a lot lower and that's not a surprise if that happens, you also know that it could rise a lot higher than what we are expecting so that's basically a normal understanding.

Alts are just following bitcoin's trend and if bitcoin tends to fall, alts will tend to fall too. Just like what happened few hours ago, the market crumbled and there's a massive dump that happened. Bitcoin affected all of them and is now starting to make the whole market bleeding. Knowing when the market can be stable again as before, no can do. Looking back when op asked the question, the market is falling including all of the alts.

I used to changed my expectation that a boom wouldn't come by end of the year so I won't be expecting something. If the market crashes then that's unexpected but I'm not expecting more of it.
Don't panic, the market is red for now but it will go green afterwards. This isn't really a new scenario in the market, there's time to heal, there's time to feel weak, there's time to hold. The reason for the said crash is speculated and has relation to the fork.

And as a perfect example, the market crashed again this night and look on what the alts did. They also went down so this significant fall is due to bitcoins dominance in the market. It predicts where the alts will go whatever happens to it.
Yeah, right now it has no rival and the cryptocurrency market will always have bitcoin as the king of it and there will be no next crypto explosion if its not for bitcoin.

What all of you are waiting for? 10% of the total market cap few hours ago has been withdrew to the market. This means that every coin in the market now is cheap and that's what you have to consider this that it is time to buy. I looked at my portfolio and its very disappointing but at some point its also a sign that I have to keep on adding to my stash. Looking at it will never solve that disappointment but doing something and acting accordingly will do.

You have analyzed it perfectly. Those youtube analysts are only giving their opinion regarding the market, I watched a couple of them before and loving the encouragement and optimism they've got into the market.
But they have disclaimer that it isn't a financial advise and its only their analysis and everyone is free to hear and ignore their words. You'll see that everyone is going to buy back and this is the best opportunity for most.

You suggested not to take a look at CMC but you just gave the link.  
That's right and big mining companies has the control with the hashes though it shocked me to see the prices. I'm pretty stable and sure that the market will be up again and they'll be pumping bitcoin. This is what they usually do, they dump the prices so they can have the best time to re-entry for pumping the market.

I see so the news that I've read before was right that this has something to do with the upcoming fork. The hash power transferred? I'm not sure if that is really what Jihan Wu twitted. But if someone here can translate this tweet, much better.

Chill. It will recover and everything's going to be fine, you're not the only person in this world which your portfolio has gone down. Everyone that has been holding is experiencing this.

Man, I was away and sleeping while this happened. I've been looking for any news but until now I haven't found with any reliable source too.

But there's one article about this right now.

I'm not sure if there's a connection with  BCH hard fork.
