Those are usually paid articles meant to pump the price so that Ripple Labs can sell some of their stash.

XRP is not exactly a ponzi but a centralized company coin where the company sells certain number of coins every year to make money and continue running their operation. Their CEO must be earning a million USD every year. Those money have to come from somewhere.

They will never let their coin pump too much because every time it does they take profit and curb the pump.

You still have time.

I'm not saying that to unload my bags or anything like that. I'm not planning on selling anything before 20 thousand and probably going to wait at least until 50 before I move my coins to an exchange.

People who bought sub 10 thousand will have a lot of opportunities in the next 2 years. Quote me on it

If the reset will happen it will not be due to covid.

This "dangerous" virus is infecting thousands of people in Europe every day and there's no panic. They will develop a vaccine sooner than this virus can cause any serious damage and I'd like to remind you that it's mostly old people who are dying. If there's a reset it will be in the politics where old farts who still support communism will no longer be there to vote.

In your picture rich countries end up with fiat money and poor countries with Bitcoins. The problem with that is Rich countries are already accepting Bitcoin while some poor ones are not. In India there's more poverty than in Germany or South Korea but it's India not those other countries that is fighting Bitcoin. How is it going to end up with crypto?

Also the dollar is not the only big fiat money in the world. I live in Europe and I haven't held a dollar bill in my hand even once.

Not really. If something is valued in a certain way it doesn't mean it will be valued higher later.

You bought coins for 10 thousand and now the price is 1 thousand. You can't say that you haven't lost money on this investment because in the present you have less than you used to have. It doesn't mean you will not get even next month but as long as you are on the loss you are on the loss. There's no denying it.

Would you still be saying that you havben't lost anything if Bitcoin went to 100 dollars and stayed there for another 5 years?

Ahh, this. I thought you bought the previous high and then did not exit when it peaked the second time.

It looks like your TA has failed.

What you've indicated as a triangle breakout was really a lower high. Even if it became a double top it still would be a bearish formation.
Triangles and harmonics fail as many times as they prove to be correct, especially with altcoins.

You can see the mood change on the forums every time there's a significant move in price.

In a bear market people are giving up, leaving, taking on other hobbies and turning to other investments. In a bull market they go crazy speculating and dreaming about getting rich when the price reaches some crazy numbers. It's always the same.

When we approach the previous ATH people get excited because there's a chance to make a lot of money if we break that level. In the history of Bitcoin it has never broke the ATH and went back into the bear market. It always kept going.

The chart doesn't work

If you bought ALGO within the last 24 hours the worst you could have done is buy it for 0.59 USD and just 2 hours ago it was at 0.59 again so worst case scenario you should've been able to exit without a loss.

In general sports where players have no physical contact with each other can be played during the pandemics.

There's really a lot of them like all bicycle sports, horse races, f1 races, all marksmanship sports, tennis, ski jumps, skating...

Participants can be easily screened for covid as long as the stadiums are closed down there's really not much danger even in close combat sports like boxing.

We don't know the whole story. Maybe this simplex doesn't do KYC and it's a requirement with your bank so the bank blocks all Simplex transfers. They can't know what Simplex did with the money but they can assume simplex is a scam.

I had my bank send me a warning when I received money from a bitcoin exchange. They explained that they do not deal with crypto exchanges due to money laundering problems and ask me not to receive money from them or they will be sent back. They accepted that first transfer and did not block my account. I guess OP's bank is very strict.

Most people think HEX is a scam because it's a scam made by a shady individual that is a guy who changed his name to Richard Heart for the purpose of establishing presence on youtube. Does he look like a trustworthy person to you? Does HEX have a real world use? For me the answer to both questions is no.

Don't ever think that a scam coin can't have a pump and a pumping coin can't be a scam. You are being naive.

I usually don't hold altcions. They are for mee a means to an end which is getting more BItcoin.

When I get altcoins from an airdrop, a campaign, a raffle, whatever else, I usually assess their potential and either sell now or wait a few weeks and then exchange them into Bitcoin. This is the only coin that I'm willing to hold for a long time.

This is something people were talking about every major level. 2 years before reaching 1000 dollars the price was at $20 and 2 years before going to 20 thousand we were at $300.



It couldn't reach 20 because it was in a bear market. Between 2014 and 2016 the price still was wtruggling to surpass 1000 because of the 2 year long bear market.
When we break 20 thousand we will most likely go to 50 within the same year.

It's not something we were not able to predict. People these days are unable to do simple jobs, unable to live on their own, do some farming, build their own home. They depend on other people offering them jobs and when they get fired they don't know how to proceed.

100 years ago people would find something to do, something to fill their time with. Now all we do is complain about not being able to find a job in some fancy corporation.

Bitcoin is such an easy investment, pretty much like Apple, Amazon and Microsoft. If you had balls to buy and hold it for at least 2 years you made money at any given point in time.

I don't get why so many people hate on Bitcoin. You tried to play the game and the game played you. Is there even anything to complain about besides the part when you prove that you're one of the maybe 5% of Bitcoin's investors who lost money? It's like saying you failed primary school

What do you mean by calling people? Should we start telling our friends and families to invest? I wouldn't want to take responsibility for their losses.

While I see all the benefits there's still a chance this will fail or the investors lose money dou to their stupitidy or carelessness. Crypto is not easy nor safe for people who aren't tech savvy.

I'm very happy with my investment after buying every single year since 2016.

If someone were to ask me if they should invest I'd say yes. Those who don't play don't win and chances of you winning with cryptocurrencies are by far greater than in gambling or investing in startups.

Because many of us are here for the long run. I haven't sold almost anything in 2018 and still hold coins bought in 2017. I've even managed to increase my portfolio in the bear market of 2018 and 2019.

Scared cats call it speculative trading but for strong hand holders it's still investing.

Most are not.

Even if you find one run by a reputable manager all you can be sure of is that you will get paid but not if the token will have any value or even be listed on an exchange. When it gets listed it can have low volume or be abandoned soon or have a very low value.

There's so many things that can go wrong that it's not worth the risk. New coin bounties are only for desperate people.

Fear can be good and bad at the same time.
 
Fear keeps your feet on the ground and stops you from being overcondfident but at the same time it can turn into panic and turn off your thinking.

I guess it depends on how you react to a little bit of fear. Like when you approach the edge and are about to fall a litle bit of fear will keep you from killing yourself but too much will paralyze you and make you stuck there unable to move back.
