Instead of taking risk with some unknown entities, why not we just trust only bitcoin kind of decentralized opportunities. Because, we can do nothing about the investment opportunities which are derailing in middle. Like you said, studying them carefully about their past performances will not help you to guess what is waiting for you in future. Being simply bitcoin holder is much better option rather thane being a struggling bitcoin investors.

I guess it would be too hard to find true bitcoin lovers like God. Honestly I am not disturbing my current bitcoin holding, even prices will go down to $800 levels, I will keep it in same cold storage. I guess Mr. Namamotto will do the same (I learned this after some frustrating selling buying in volatile markets ). I am not going to listen any speculations nor sure-shot recommendations. Probably I will buy more if I get chances to buy cheaper.

I guess every altcoins will get dumped very soon as there will no backing for them except few new business are not deciding to accept them (still one or two coins get that level of reorganizations), others will face the consequences of dumping/profit booking.

The rise of altcoins would have made the dev of bitcoin ecosystem to find one reasonable solution for bitcoin scalabilty issue. Other than this, I guess there is no in sight problems for bitcoin is existing. Hopefully bitcoin will come out of this hurdle too like what it has done by earlier 2015 after mtcox collapse. 

But I am afraid you may face your eggs broken in the new basket. The rally of leading altcoins seemed phased just before falling back. So close watching is highly suggested.

Today I read another group of people tried for bitcoin ETF and got the same consequences what Winklevokoss faced. I guess some people by "somewhat " will make bitcoin ETF into reality in very near future. I feel just holding bitcoin is more safer for me.

There are a lot of people believing the upcoming projects and plans for radium by the dev team will raise the price of radium but I believe there are a lot of holders out there who will take advantage of the new raise of price and sell which will cause the price to not skyrocket, maybe not even go too high to care.

There needs to be a raise in the price that will surpass the amount of holders coins to even make a dent in the exchange markets.

OP is not talking about tossed aside, he is asking if bitcoin could be passed by eth on the price probably. If we are talking about market-cap and the value than yeah maybe eth could pass bitcoins one day, maybe not that is to see, if we are talking about the PR and the userbase than I think it won’t be even remotely close to getting passed, bitcoin won’t be passed on by eth or any other coin in the near or I personally believe in the far future ever.

Your actions show your lack of self control over your emotions. You should not breach your own predetermined plans even in frustrating moments. You must always stick within your plans so that you could avoid more losses.

Many gamblers do start betting in big amounts once they get losses. Actually they would have planned for some small base bet amount for their gambling for that day, but they do breach it because for the reason of recovering losses.
But, at the end of day they would come out of gambling with empty hand for sure. Sticking with plans is always important and decisions taking under pressure will never give us good results.

Lossing 200k sat makes you worried ?
Then probably you are still staying safer with gambling. In my beginning days even I am losing 0.001 bitcoins made me so frustrated. But now a days, even losing 0.1 bitcoins within single da,y I'm not bothering that much.

Your all-in will vary with your experience. As long as you are keeping your losses small, you may keep your all-in small and getting frustrations could be avoided.

But what is the difference between re-starting afresh and trying to recover ? Probably the time for coming back into gambling would be the big difference, but the gambler's mindset will be same after facing losses.

When you are giving importance for your money in gambling and then facing losses will make you to come back with your tailor-made reasons.

Now if we have to answer one or the either I would say neither. If we are going to talk which one would be closer to your estimates I  think bitcoin would be. Litecoin was the big deal once upon a time.

Gold of bitcoin to silver of litecoin, but now we can see litecoin has been passed by couple of coins mainly by eth, so that means Litecoin is not peoples choice of silver. It won’t go as big as you think it will. However bitcoin is another subject, 7.500 is a lot of rise in the price, I think it will definitely rise from what is today but not that much.

There have been many many big major news and setbacks on bitcoin, the biggest ever is ahead of us right now for example but that is not affecting the price as much as people are afraid of, bitcoin is not suddenly 1$ each (all of us would sell everything we own and buy bitcoin at that price even if it dropped ) same for litecoin, it had some issues, it will keep having problems but it won’t make it “dead”, it will just affect the prices for a while and will return to normal.

I am considering a scenario that bitcoin, eth and litecoin is just too high on volume to do a regular pump and dump, it would take millions of dollars to even attempt, maybe people do pump and dump of huge coins like litecoin with news and media and human mind manipulation instead how regular pump and dump is done?

Why not I assume that people are suggesting here the altcoins where they have invested or where they are part of inside team. Basically I am always against altcoins and hence I like to suggest not to add little-known nor highly manipulated altcoins.

We have shapeshift kind of instant services and hence limited altcoin options will be fine imho.

A lot of countries all around the world are constantly racing to get their reserve of gold and dollar, the current economy makes the dollar dominate the market since we import things from us like gadgets, food and other things, and I don’t think that bitcoin will never be able to catch up to that at least not at its current state.

Fortunately no one single country nor some group of people will not be able to compete against a community. Bitcoin community is growing strongly and hence we could expect bitcoin replacing anything and it is completely beyond control of anyone.

I guess almost all people are saving bitcoins like you, people who start saving bitcoins as a serious business find the fun within it after some times. Similarly people who were starting saving bitcoin for fun, had found the use of it like life changing opportunities.

Yes, people are having their own reasons to save bitcoin and regardless of for what reason they are saving the benefit of holding bitcoins for long haul will definitely available to them. That is the beauty of bitcoins. Your reason is not a constrain here.

The actual reason and the only reason why normal people should use bitcoin is to make money and secure their saving, just like gold bitcoin has many advantages that makes it the best way to invest money into, it is limited so the more you have the better profit you get and, the reason why they should invest in it instead of the gold is for the short term investment, bitcoin could have a low value today and the next day you find out that it has gone up.

It does not matter what your friends think of the bitcoin and whether they want to invest in it or not, you should do what you think is right, if you think that bitcoin is a good investment and it has potential like everyone claims then go ahead and invest, many people don’t realize the fact that bitcoin can improve their financial state.

I would say the same but if you mean by kid you mean teenagers than yes you could teach a teen about bitcoin early so they could start earning their own money if they don’t want to get a part time job, and you could tell them that they could use the money to buy games, I taught  my neighbor about bitcoin and he bought wow with the money he earned and pays for the monthly subscription with it.

I agree, there are a lot of ways to invest your money into, but the thing is you just have to find the right one for you, and not make the mistake that everyone falls into is that jump without what they are risking, they don’t even take the time to look it up, they think that trading bitcoin is easy and everyone and his dog can make money out of it.

Not all types of trading are easy. But people are sharing that they are making good profits with bitcoin trading and even with altcoin trading many traders are facing losses.

This is true, not just with bitcoin but for everywhere. Unfortunately before bitcoin I was unable to find more money making opportunities. Even I was aware of all these things, finding suitable opportunity was really big challenge before bitcoins. So I like to suggest to go specific with bitcoin so that you could find more easy opportunities for your time and efforts.

Not just with entertainment reason, people are finding it too hard when they break their hopes of becoming rich in quicker times. That must be the prime reason every gambler is finding quitting gambling as very big challenge.

That is the reason we should not believing into gambling for making money from it. Practically gambling will never make anyone reach but we are developing such type of intentions within ourselves by seeing when some people are sharing about their big winning from gambling.

When we are not holding any commitment with gambling, I believe it will be so easier to give it up.

To play according to the situation, anyone must need some experience.
Without experience, it will not be possible to stop gambling after making some money. Because that is the human nature to continue gambling once you see some profits from it.

Even luck will be the influencing factor in your gambling, your decisions will get you safer places. To make those right decisions at right time you must need some experiences.
