Maybe they would eventually approve it but we don't know for sure when would that happen. There are still so many speculation as to how bitcoin and other altcoin should be treated that's why the stance of SEC when it comes to ETF is still doubtful. Regarding the huge bull run, it may happen when there is an announcement of its approval but I would rather see the price slowly go up than a pump because if its the case then there would a dump afterwards which is not an organic growth.

All investment has inherent risk because you cannot be sure that you will get back your investment or have profits with your investment in the future. The advantage of using bitcoin as an investment is that you can use it as well as a currency which is its actual use case so if ever you have profits then you can just use it immediately for payment unlike any other investment in which you would need to sell it first like if you are investing in real estate so that you can use the money for other purpose.

I do see altcoin as an investment opportunity but not for the new projects because we have yet to see if the team would be able to carry out what they have promise in their whitepapers while I may be willing to invest in the coins that have been existing for years because we can already see their developments and their project may already be complete and we can see the demand then if the people would use it for its actual use case or just for speculation purposes.

However, there are still new projects that are worth looking at and you will be lucky if you would be able to purchase it during ICO when the price is still cheap. Of course, you still have the option to purchase it when it is already listed in exchanges.

Yeah, it's disappointing to see that the market is not doing good nowadays and so the crypto enthusiasts are not feeling enthusiastic because as the price goes up, it would just come back down again much lower than it has before making the investors think twice if they want to add up to their investments or would just pull out what they have because it seems like there is no indication of an impending pump. However, I still believe that the crypto party would be back sooner or later and we just have to have patience for it to happen.

You cannot exactly know when a coin would pump because if there is a formula for it then many people would be rich by now. You may search for some hints though or signs that there is an impending pump for a coin if the volume is building up for that coin and there's an incoming significant event then maybe sooner or later it will pump.

If the buy volume for a certain coin is higher than its average then there is a possibility of a pump. You just have to observe the normal movement of a coin and if there are some changes when it comes to volume then there is a probability that sooner or later, it will have a significant change in price. You can use technical analysis as well for anticipating a pump like a break-out perhaps.

Due to the bear market, people or shall I say, investors are somewhat discourage with what is happening in the price that's why some take a break and just find other investment opportunities waiting for the time when it seems like the bulls are back while others did leave the crypto market totally thinking that the exciting times are done. Well, if you are a risk taker then maybe you can just wait patiently and think of the advantages of having a stable price wherein those merchants might think of adopting it finally causing a mass adoption slowly.

When it comes to investors, maybe they are frustrated as to when the price would skyrocket again while those bitcoin traders has the option to either trade in this market or they would just wait for the market to get better. There is still a lot of opportunities when it comes to the market because there is still a fluctuation and this is where the traders would come in. It depends on your strategy then on how you can profit from this kind of market.

It would depend on the market condition because some investors are taking a break not investing in projects because the market is not doing good in this bear market so they would rather wait for the time when the bulls come back so that they can easily get their profit in a short amount of time. You cannot entirely depend on the reputable ICO sited because some of them are just paid to promote the ICO so you should do your due diligence in choosing a good investment.

It may not look like bitcoin is getting a traction in the crypto market but then behind the scenes, some companies are slowly getting engage and adopting cryptocurrency because they can see that it would be valuable in the future. It would be better if they would engage when it is not that hot topic because by the time the price gets better then they would be celebrating with us and those that are just buying would have a little profit. A trillion dollar is possible because why not? Bitcoin always surprise us.

You should choose an altcoin that has a higher volume or those who have been existing for a time and have proven that they can still recover after a bear market because most of them won't be able too especially those that have been existing on the market for trading only and the projects behind has not been continued because the team abandoned it or it is just a pure scam. I would prefer those coins that has an active team and the development still continues.

When the price seems like heading up, after a few days it would go down again that's why investors are frustrated because of the price stability. As for the traders, it is a good opportunity to trade because even if the price goes up and down, there is still volatility which makes it a good opportunity to trade for short term. Others are now thinking of knowing how to trade because while traders are happy about the price, investors are patiently or impatiently waiting.

There is still so many opportunities in cryptocurrency because even if it has been existing for almost a decade now, there are still so many things to be developed since it is still considered to be a market in its infancy compared to other markets like foreign exchange and stocks. Its scope is not that wide yet that's why there is a possibility that it would continue to grow and as long as there are people who are willing to use the coin for its transactions then its a good investment opportunity.

Both can be profitable depending on the movement if the coin and as to how much you would put as capital into the coin. When you are a short-term trader then it may be better for you to choose altcoin because it has a fast movement compared to bitcoin since most of the time, it has a low volume so it has more price volatility than bitcoin bu then be careful with pump and dump because you may end up catching the dump so you would incur much loss and it is riskier to trade an altcoin especially if it has low volume because it may not have any demand in the future.

I think price would be higher than what it is now and it can even reach maybe a new all time high. It has been a long eleven months wherein people are waiting for the price to recover and maybe aim for a new ATH but then so far, it is not happening. Since market is a cycle and we are in a bear market, bull market would eventually come and I believe that a new all time high would be reach then. Maybe a $50,000 a bitcoin price would be achievable since it will be fueled by the old and new investors.

Yes, that's the beauty of this technology because it lets you have limitless possibilities because it can have a wider scope in a trustless system. Unlike in the technology that we have nowadays that is mostly centralized wherein there is a limit as to who can access it and then those who handle the system can freely do to whatever information is there in the system since they are the authority while in blockchain technology, it needs a permit to more than half of all the people who has access to it which makes it next to impossible of being hacked.

As for the usage of blockchain technology without cryptocurrency, yes it is possible because it can exist without the other while cryptocurrency cannot exist without blockchain technology.

Well, he is a famous and rich person and we know that there are times when they choose to give something for promotional purposes or they just want to give something to people and for those who are new to crypto world seeing the price currently, they would be convinced that they can get something out of it. When I am just new to cryptocurrency, I easily believe this kind of giveaway that's why I got scammed before.

Of course, I regret that I easily believe it but then I learned my lesson and  try to help others who are just blindly believing this kind of stuff by warning them.

I think the one who are having a hard time understanding it would be those generation ahead of millennials because they aren't that much familiar with the internet and some even do not attempt how to use a computer. As for those younger generations, most likely they can relate because cryptocurrencies are just like in the games wherein one would have a coin, token or whatever to do some transactions and people are familiar with it. For those who aren't that engage in technology then they would be the one having a hard time understanding it.

It's no problem for me as long as I can use it smoothly. Maybe in that point, all merchants already accepted cryptocurrency as one of their payment options considering that fiat would still be use during that time. I have no rpoblem as whatever kind of mode of payment I am using and I believe that when cryptocurrencies would be used then it would be easier to trace the transactions. In that way, it would be easier for me to trace what are the expenses I have incurred since I can trace where my money went.

It is already a given that when you decide to invest on something, you should know already what kind of investment is that because if there are some events that may affect the price of that altcoin then you can act fast. If you want to invest in a coin for the long term, it would be a good idea to take profit from time to time so that when the market is not doing good then you can adjust your holdings by either accumulating more if you have extra funds or selling it earlier and maybe incur a little loss and then buy back later on when it has a cheaper price.

Investing in a coin for the long term is too risky for me because coins are unpredictable and price is very volatile that's why as much as possible when you have the chance to take profit then you should grab it.
