No one really expected it to be this early but I always give room for surprises anyway since this is not the first time bitcoin is ever going to do that. We can see a lot of improvement coming up eventually and some news that would even make it surge than this in coming years and I have never been so optimistic about something in my life as much as I am with bitcoin right now.

The gospel truth is that no one knows if any crash is ever going to happen and we really cannot tell. We may end up waiting for something that may never even come, some will dump theirs, the market keeps getting large and so many people will be ready to accept it and continue from there and then you will see some people coming back to this thread sobbing they sold their position at a lower value.

No one is stopping anyone from selling and in fact I will be willingly waiting for that crash so I can maybe get in some price I could not before.

Why won't people buy ? How do you think the market cap is increasing daily ? The thing is that we tend to look at the full line and then decide not to always read in between the lines. The fact remains that some smart people who do not have enough cash to buy as much as 1 BTC can just decide to buy what they can afford to buy and leave it to grow.

Mistakes most people are making are that they keep looking at the big one, when the little one can even grow as well. A time will come when people would wish they have 0.01 BTC as that will be a whole lot of money.

That is just it. It is not by the gadget or equipment you are using, your skills and strategies matter a lot which from what I can detect from the OP's question, he still sounds like a noob in trading (just an assumption).

There are so many trading platforms to use which is important and I make use of bittrex directly on my mobile anytime I need to do some stuffs quickly which is highly mobile friendly. With the smart age, you can trade anywhere you are.

I might have to quote your word on this and probably send you a PM related to that effect when bitcoin price soar more than you expect. If you have been monitoring the trend, then you should have known already that there is absolutely no way bitcoin is going to stay on $9000 by the end of this year. We still have one more resistance to break now at $9500 and after that, I am not sure the next support may be lower than $6800. We still have a lot of days before this year ends bro, so you may have to reconsider your prediction.

It really does not have any purpose and every reasonable investor knows that already. No matter what Roger tries to do, to make himself stay relevant, he will end up losing at the end of the day. Sure, he has all the resources to do what he is doing presently, which I am not surprised, but I believe people who fell for his trap are already getting wiser not to fall for it again.

Bitcoin will keep rising for now and the mistake some people are making is to keep waiting for a long time before they buy. Even when bitcoin is in a correction state, some people will still be asking if they should buy bitcoin or not. The best answer is just to buy and forget if it goes down or not, most especially when one is holding. Sure, for some bull runs, it is usually Okay to get in at the correction state, but not when a particular trend has passed.

Best time to buy is just now because the price may surge past this and even if it comes down to test another support, we may not see it lower than $6600 - $6700. Bitcoin has always followed a particular trend when it comes to testing support and breaking resistance and for someone who wants to hold for a long time, getting in now is not a bad time at all.

Even if you say you want to use your PC to mine which obviously will not even give you anything but trash, 0.01 BTC will not even buy a good laptop to consider mining some altcoins and looking forward to the profit you will make from its value in the future.

All the above with trading, this is something that you can start increasing gradually and in no time you can make something good except that it requires some learning, effort and some pretty hard work from you.

Yes, and even the income from our job is stable as compared to bitcoins. Bitcoins can be handled as a side business but even if you want to make your full earnings in bitcoins, than you have to spend a lot of time.

Bitcoin learning is a lot of time consuming and is not that easily earned. Learning bitcoins does not need any physical work, just we need is a good knowledge about bitcoins and a good earning skills.

 Job can give us a good stable income which is of great importance in our financial life but in bitcoins, we can even have major profits sometimes as sometimes luck factor may work in bitcoins. Bitcoins too give us various platforms to earn money like trading, mining, investing, gambling, etc.

I don't think it would go bad in the end as the addiction in bitcoins is not that bad as cocaine and heroin. If we can earn a good profit in bitcoins then i would say that the addiction is good. Also it depends on each individual that what kind of addiction does he want to intake.

If taken positively, bitcoins are a profitable addiction and has no side-effects on our physical body. Also we can earn a good amount of profits in bitcoins and each technology friendly individual will spend some of his time in bitcoins to have some good profit.

Honestly, we really cannot say if Ethereum will or not. It is really long overdue anyway and I really hope it does.
It has been finding it very hard lately to break this resistance and if it can then we should be looking at a new ATH after that. As far as I am concerned, it has been very disappointing and boring thus far and I really do not see why it is not really giving a huge push.

Yes. Current price is still very close and there can still be a very good possibility to hit it early next year or before mid-year. Ethereum has been promising and a lot is being done to make it stand out most especially when a lot of competitors are dropping off daily. We just have to keep watching how things end up turning out at the end. So many developments will happen in the crypto world next year, so we just have to wait and see.

Yes, we adapt so fast to situations that you would not even remember a problem ever existed. We will start seeing a lot of changes happening in most place and power issues will end up solved even if they tend to sound more of a problem. Like you said, there are so many alternative source of electricity and if that would end up paying more than using the main power source, it is as simple as making use of the alternative sources.

Watch very soon when bitcoin cash gets dumped badly and then you will know which is in dominance stage or not. I am expecting it very much this week anyway when traders start pulling back into BTC once the whales start taking their profit from BCH. However, it has been a long run anyway for BCH and a very good profit for those who were lucky and wise enough to stash some.

It is obvious bitcoin has a lot of support than we can imagine which has made it to gain such credibility over the years and being the first on the list right from the beginning, it always will. The dominance will keep increasing as so many other countries and people all over the world keep adopting it massively which is very much expected in coming years which would keep strengthening the currency more than we can imagine.

Everything you have said totally depends on the trader's experience, style of trading and their strategies which they cannot know without having a good knowledge on how to go about them.

Certainly, it is a simple process, but for a trader who is not ready to leave their funds in alts for so long, I have always believed that cutting losses at a certain percentage is just the best thing to always do and look for a better alternative to trade.

The point would be not to consider bitcoin as just an asset and you can remove and spend from it whenever you like. Except for traders who do it for profit. Bitcoin is highly unpredictable and you can sell now and see the price going to the moon any moment from then.

You just have to be very smart about your decisions so you do not end up making the wrong move and even if you do, you just know how to get back in.

That is the point. Not every country can take such a decision and if all countries decided to take the decision, who do you think is going to buy yours from you? We might just end up holding what we have and at a point when everything dies down, transaction may end up resuming as normal.

As long as people still see value with the usage of bitcoin and someone is willing to accept yours, then bitcoin will still have a value except you decide to sell yours $0 anyway.

The entertainment part is what most people do not always want to hear until they end up losing everything while trying to recover their losses. Gambling is a game of chance and luck and that is just the way it is. It is always more like 100 people losing for one person to win and the chances of losing are very high most especially when increasing betting odds.

Like you said, it requires controlling emotions and also accepting that the possibilities of losing are high, which is the only way one can accept losses and move on.

The mistakes most of them make is that they allow themselves to get too overwhelm and then misuse what they have instead of making the best use for it. Some even throw it back into gambling expecting the same fate. Opportunities like this only come once and how we utilize them is very important. For someone who does not really have great plans before winning a jackpot, I won't be surprised when they end up squandering the funds for unnecessary things.

Doubling in terms of value this year is something we should not really expect that much though, but by next year, this is something that is very much attainable and looking at the same scenario that played out this year playing out again next year although sounds unrealistic, would surely create a lot of huge growth for bitcoin the more.

After all, as the value keeps increasing, the less we keep seeing some 3 - 8x growths in the value of bitcoin like the 8x we saw this year.
