Although financially 2018 year was not the best for crypto, it was very useful for general development of cryptocurrencies and technology of blockchain. This is a necessary stage of cleaning process, as well as improving technology and linking it to life's realities.

I think that bullish stage of market development is not far off. Bitcoin has long been fairly stable around 6500 dollars. The number of new coins does not increase as fast as the number of people interested in cryptocurrencies increases. This will sooner or later lead to a new phase of growth. This will be facilitated by a new phase in today's bears, which will become bulls.

A lot of altcoins being clones of bitcoin and other successful projects will definitely disappear. They are not needed and survived only because of the hype of 2017. Only few of them should remain, which will gain greater capitalization and become more stable.

Ethereum is an excellent tool for investing in the coming month. Its price is guaranteed to grow after Constantinople update, which will reduce the reward to the miners from three to two coins.

XRP competes more with Bitcoin, as another payment system. Ethereum is not just a payment asset, it is a platform for decentralized applications. Transactions of assets in it is secondary thing and Ethereum team is working now over increasing their speed.

I do not believe in new promising altcoins, if it's just a payment system. Now there are many different cryptocurrencies, most of which remain afloat only because of the pump in 2017.

If you choose ICO with good quality and reliability, then this can be a very profitable investment even now. There are very attractive projects for investment on the market. Unfortunately, sometimes their tokens are completely sold on closed sales, for instance as it was with AERGO project.

Market cannot constantly fall. There are more and more new messages every day about legalization of cryptocurrencies and increasing their use in trade. This will inevitably unfold the market, at least in the sector of the most reliable cryptocurrencies.

Bitcoin is completely safe, if elementary security rules are respected when working on the Internet. If you use reliable software, don;t visit suspicious sites, then the risk of loss is minimal.
