chosing a single coin is not about boredom but its the risk that we can potentialy faced  . let say the guy put all his 1k usd on "brand a" coin  but "brand a" coin got dumped and whats worst is that "brand a" coin could not recover anymore anymore  . that is why there is a saying that dont put all your eggs in one basket  . its always better if you can diversify your funds on different set of coins no matter how big or small your capital  is so that you can lessen your risk and you can increase your chances of earning a good income  .

Only these days ?  What about before ?  Actually anything online is risky and that includes online exchange . there is no date or time with that because hacking can occur at all times  .  traders/investors have no choice but to trust these online exchange so that they can do their business  .  by using a good quality exchange you can also still reduce your chance of being hacked .

altcoins today are still the same as what they are before  , the only difference is the price .  altcoins are infact less riskier than bitcoin because alts are more cheaper and more stable  . just make sure that you chose those alts that are on the top list because they are more legit than the unrated ones   .

 it isnt bad to prioritize altcoins , infact alot of trader and investor are foccusing thier portfolio mainly on alts .

Back on the early days  , mining that time is not yet difficult because cryptos such as bitcoin arent also really popular. Hardware mining is also cheap as well as the electricity and most importantly , the price of bitcoin is also verry cheap  .   they mined it or maybe they just buy it directly using their cold cash as a part of thier investment   . its not really shocking or surprising at all in my part   .

not all on social media are legit  . those popular personalities that you are following are only controlled by a fan or its only a dummy account  .  news are still a better source for information but as long as you are reading the news on a reputable source  and not only on just random news sites that are not popular or dont have a reputation yet  . anyway , back on the origial topic  .  its nice to hear that russia is now starting a cashless society    , before im saying that its not possible but it is really possible after i see this  .

Electricity , internet or technolgy in general is still meant for humans or should i say primarily meant for humans  . secondary use would be for animals or for other non living things . they also need a technolgy so that they can improve and develop more effectively just like us humans   .

that is the same as cryptos , cryptocurrencies are invented because of the devs of cryptos wants to exeperience a way of paying or a currency that is independent or not tied up with the banks   . cryptos are really built for human because humans are the only one that can use cryptos  .

Same here , idk why alot of users keep saying that the cryptos can pump too much because of halving  and like you said  , 2016 halving did not have much impact on the market but i guess its normal because before cryptos are not yet popular but today especially on the incoming years , cryptos are expected to be more indemand  and i think that will cause for the price to rise and not because of halving   .

90usd ? Sure it can because eth has no difference between other cryptos and all of them are all volatile which means they can go up or down but that is a big blessing if ever the price of eth drop down to 90usd tho i think it could take a long time for it to happen since we all know that eth is kinda bit useful especially for token creation in an ico so there will always be a demand for eth no matter what 

Marketing ? Advertising ?  No i dont think so .  waves is already a popular altcoin and im pretty sure that every crypto enthusiast do already recognized this coin  . waves before do also have a signature campaign on the late 2017  and thier campaign do also run quite longer  .  but to the question that if will waves replace etherium ?  Id say yes its possible because waves can also do what eth can do but in a more cheaper way  .  

But even if its already listed you cant still guarantee that their price can rose imediately because they are still volatile  . plus  , you can instead expect that their price can fall down evenly because the chance of dumping them is too high since they are already listed .  while on ico ,you can expect that the price of the coin can instantly pump after it gets listed since investors and bounty hunters were only hodling thier coins for a long time .

7k usd is still pretty small to some people therfor they did not consider the increase as a bull run   . for them a real bull run is when the price cross to 18k to 20k usd just like what happened last two years ago  .  when it comes to buying/investing , it also depends on the user if he thinks that he can afford the current price then he must buy now but if not then its better if he can wait for more price decline  .  price of bitcoin is not really that huge , so id say that its not yet late to join  the ride  .

far ? no not really  . by using cryptos you are already in a decentralized system because cryptos are known to be anonymous and is unregulated by banks however when you choose to use centralized exchanged or other centralized service that requires a kyc then you are the one that leaving the decentralized scene   .


oh really ? i didnt knew that fact but thanks btw  .


what about cryptos ? cryptos are also a currency same as money  but why cryptos are known to be decentralized  ?

I check the price of etherium but i dont see any shocking price movements  . the price of eth is still the same and its still below 200usd  .  while on the other hand , the price of bitcoin is now pumping at over 7k usd  . they say that eth and other cryptos are tied up with btc but why btc is the only one that is pumping?  While other cryptos are left behind   . oh well , maybe it needs more time   or maybe it needs more price hike for btc before other coins will start to follow it  .

like what the popular phrase say " history repeat itself " therfor we can assume that bitcoin's value can climb again up to 20k usd like what it did before on the 2017 era but i dont think that it can happen easily  because if we look back on the year 2017 , the price of bitcoin start to pump at the mid of november up to the last week of december  , meaning to say the pump this year may only occur on those said date's  .


what happen is a normal recovery of the price due to the demand that bitcoin gets from the public and yes it was a good news to all of us .

only this month ? what about last month ? this year is actually a good year for all the cryptos not just bitcoin alone because we can clearly see that they are now recovering from a trauma that they experience last year  .


no meyt , we already witnessed this kind of situation before  . last months and last two years ago are the example  . the increase on the price is not really a rare occasion  . best thing to do now is enjoy while it last because we will never know when it will last .

yeah yeah we all knew it but whats the connection from the current market state ? when we all here are only talking about the current state of the market and not the benefits of having a bitcoin   . but anyway  , to answer the op's question `the current market state of cryptos right now is healthy because i can see that bitcoins as well as other cryptos are now increasing more evenly  . by this i can say that the bull run or the bull market is now starting  .

mobile wallet and online wallet are considered as one if you are using a mobile phone and yes all online wallets have risk  , thats why its always recomended to store our funds in a hardware wallet   .


safety ? who says that a market ( crypto market ) is safety ? all kinds of market ( not only on crypto ) are actually have risk as long as its involved money  but crypto market is more risky of them all due to unstablenes of cryptos  . your right that its always a nice idea to secure our funds in a cold storage or offline wallet if we are going for long term  .

your not complaining ? but you are wondering on why the heck the price jump so fast ?  based on that  , i think you are still complaining  .  anyway the price increase was normal and it maybe caused by  fomo ( fear of missing out ) people are buying because they dont want to miss the incoming bull run .  lets hope that a real bull run will finally occur and not just a bull trap because everyone is expecting too much   .  lets hope that btc and cryptos wont failed us this time  .

when he say gambling device he does not mean that bitcoin will be only use as bets to play online gambling but i think he generally means that bitcoin is like a gambling becuase once you own a bitcoin  , the value of it can suddenly rise or fall  ( risky in short , like playing a gambling  ) . i do agree on the person who said it but this isnt new to us  ,  people are already used to it   . being volatile is not a disadvantage but its an advantage

for this week ? yes maybe because we can all see where the price is heading at  , but starting next week ( monday ) dunno if the rise will still continue or not   .  so if i were you @op id rather start buying now so that you can still earn some quick profits  or you can just blindly ignore the pump to be able to wait for another bottom  if you are trully eager to buy bitcoins at a much cheaper price   .
