unfortunatelly, now Ethereum hardfork are pending and untill now nothing happen big event in Ethereum market, i don't see any hype buy order for Ethereum in market
Yep, it was obvious that OP is exaggerating, but even I expected $200, and I'm usually pessimistic. This shows a complete lack of excitement in the market.

If you know for sure that in two years the situation will improve so much that we will be able to return all our losses, it would be just great, but since no one has such confidence, then most likely they will not decide anything for two years. Five years is a real term during which significant improvements are possible.
We can't possibly have guarantees about any time frame. Every time we got a pump, there was a reason for it. If nothing interesting happens to crypto, it will continue losing its value, the loss of value will cause panic selling over and over and over again.

I learnt that the ethereum fork will bring about reduction in reward per block for miners from 3ETH to 2ETH thereby causing Ethereum to be scarce.
My question is will the scarcity bring about signifant increase in price?
There's no fundamental reason for ETH to pump during the time of the fork as the fork itself has been announced for a while. Your best bet is a combination of: 1. Manufactured hype to pump the price 2. People actually reading up on ETH 2.0 and the upcoming updates But by the looks of it, the pump never happened

No need to wonder what is happening now with dash. Look around - the same thing is happening now with all the other coins that we know. None of them grow in price because there are no prerequisites for this. Such is the harsh reality of 2019. This is sheer disappointment for all traders and investors.
Yep. Besides, OP is only asking about price, not usage. Dash is amongst the most widely accepted cryptocurrencies, but fundamentals and adoption don't exactly matter in crypto, one shill is more powerful than hundreds of merchants using your coin. And DASH people suck at shilling.

They were most certainly hacked. But there's no news on HOW they got hacked. I guess stay tuned for the next few days, we'll have more information. They are a registered entity in NZ, they can't just run away with the money.

trying to be smarter in taking action, now I will try not to make mistakes when investing. Many people hope that including me, this year is better than last year, and I want to improve my portfolio this year.
If assets lose 90% of their value in a year, this year could not possibly be worse. My plan for this year is to only buy when some signals are on. And short litecoin throughout the year just to be more market-independent.

Ethereum is the rightful #2, whenever XRP takes its spot you know this only happens because ICO-ers are dumping ETH to fund their development - and it's not going to last. XRP @ #2 is the best BUY signal you can get for Ethereum. It has proven very profitable every single time so far

To be honest, I thought that the panic sales have already ended, but it turns out that there is not, everything is just beginning and this has been going on for the second year already, who knows how much more such movements will continue. It is terrible to imagine.
People had a year at their disposal to panic. If they didn't panic while everything went -90%, they're not going to panic now. But I think the slow price drop will continue, simply because no-one is buying.

Gold has a millennia-old history of storing value. Whereas in the eyes of the public, bitcoin has a history of storing $18,000 of value and turning it into $3,000. We need a better value proposition.

January 30th is when Zilliqa bears will start hiding. But when it comes to BTC, even 10,000 people on this forum wouldn't be as influential as one big whale. This is how wealth distribution works.

I think the missing piece is that he should not only be advertising Bitcoin, but also some resource where people can learn about it. Unfortunately if they don't know how central banks work, they'll never understand the value proposition. Do you guys know an all-in-one place to learn EXACTLY why bitcoin is valuable? That would be worth advertising.

NO, what the hell. Close your eyes, and imagine you're the guy who took loans to buy the $16,000 dip. Imagine how you feel on each stage - $15,000. $14,000... and so on. Imagine how your family looks at you.

Already a lot of discussion is happened on about it. Bitcoin is the digital way to make money. People are joining with it and investing on it. They are showing interest and using their time on it. Being a strong community, they believe in it.
This is what people really believe in, and these things never end well. You're describing a pyramid scheme, bitcoin might have strong fundamentals but in terms of price, is this is the mainstream idea about bitcoin, we're falling down to $1k

Anyone promising a 10x is either delusional or trying to dump their bags on you. The only coins that will see SOME pump are ZIL and LINK (because main nets are about to get launched) but even 2x would be an overstatement.

This is almost impossible to happen, because: 1. Crypto market is still bearish 2. Every hard fork is followed by price dump 3. This hard fork doesn´t implement some game changing things, like PoS consensus.
That's 100% true but it's still worth considering whether the actual valuable forks will bring us price hikes. We'll be having more hard forks in 2019 and the very fact that development is going well might mean that it's wise to accumulate early rather than immediately before the fork

Shit ICO-s could only work in 2017. I'm 100% certain that high quality projects with great value proposition can still succeed in 2019. It's the result of the market self-regulation and that's a wonderful thing.

The only reason ETH can drop below XRP is because of temporary dumping by ICO projects. Long term ETH is gonna prevail and seeing it below XRP is a great signal that it's time to buy.

We all want bitcoin to be globally adopted right, you want to be able to use your bitcoin as a currency to buy foodstuffs, goods or service in your local community then what are you doing to encourage that? No one here can tell me that he/she hasn't sold anything before, so you have no excuse of not accepting bitcoin in exchange for what you sold be it your books, gadget or anything salable expect you never knew of bitcoin then. I walked into my barbers shop yesterday then notice something was different (i took a closer look at what was printed on the A4 paper pasted on the notice board and it reads "We now accept Bitcoin & ETH as payment options" it went on to explain that ETH will be accepted for the $2 and below fees and bitcoin accepted for fees above that. It gave me joy because I was the one who introduced him to bitcoin few years back. As an act of encouragement I have promise to promote his business both online and in popular blockchain related gathering I attend. Few of my previously sold gadget monetary value were received in cryptocurrency and i have come to realize if we want the world to take us seriously we have to act ourselves so I'm encouraging the service providers and others we have on forum to start accepting bitcoin, charity begins at home.
Both ETH and BTC have huge fees from time to time and I can't in good faith recommend them to anyone. I made the mistake of recommending BCH to merchants, but the hash war destroyed its stability, too.

I already use Brave on my Galaxy phone and it's the best mobile browser out there. I think that BAT is already huge, and that makes it an OK investment at best. It's already priced quite high. At least unlike most other tokens, it's high price is deserved.

A nice informative post for newbies. It's nice to mention that not all altcoin trading pairs are based on BTC. Most exchanges nowadays offer ETH and USDT trading pairs, Binance adds XRP and Coinex has BCH too.
