we are not going to see prices below $300 ever again.
with the current state of bitcoin, I don't see any scenario where price can go that low unless something terrible happens which I cant even thing of happening. reaching $300 and below needs a massive dump and not to forget we are all waiting at 390-350-300 to buy bitcoin cheap so there will be a strong resistance against it.
Something terrible is already happening. If Classic does not prevail soon, Bitcoin is dead. |

1. Community is better
2. Faster
3. Ready to scale
4. More versatile
5. More decentralised
6. Not controlled by chinese miners
7. Not run by idiots
8. More developers
9. Used by banks
10. Not used by pedophiles
That 10th reason sounds just stupid because even if it's true right now, it's totally irrelevant. |

If you had one chance to get someone interested in Bitcoin (on a TV interview, or in private conversation with a wealthy friend, for example), and under 20 seconds...
What would you say?
Fix the money, you will fix the world. |

How much will cost Dogecoin after 5-10 years?
shitcoin which won't last even a year from now on. |

Which Altcoins would you keep if you have $500?
Well, if you ask me, I'd keep $50 worth of different ten altcoins (ethereum, dogecoin, monero, digibyte, dash, startcoin, etc).
good picks except dogecoin |

Buy Bitcoin only if you want to lose money. Development is very slow, soon it will absolutely hit the ceiling with number of transactions and there will be no scalability solution. That's when things gonna get very bad for Bitcoin. Thanks Blockstream & miners & whales.

Most advanced projects out there are Ethereum, Monero, Slock.it, NXT, Bitshares, Decred. Split at your likes.... A word of warning... Bitcoin is dying.

Why not? let's say there are 20 million bitcoins in existence in the future, every bitcoin is 200k, then the total market cap is 4 trillion (4000 billion), this may seem like a lot but it's actually quite modest for a global payment network system...  You're right, but you should replace keyword Bitcoin with keyword Ethereum, maybe even IOTA Token  |

Just the fact that they are able to buy in a large chunk, which would be a hassle to do on an exchange is bending over for these guys enough.
exactly my thoughts. |

BTC/USD seems to be stabilised at around $420-$430.
Thoughts and predictions where it's going to next?
Whales & miners are obviously on Blockstream side, it's the only reason it's not dropping like a rock. Fundamentals were never been worse. It's a miracle it's priced like this, it's a miracle hy whales & miners are supporting Blockstream. But I guess 75 mil USD were carefully spent on bribing.... |

You can't really compare prices like that because of different supplies of different coins. But you may compare price movements in the means of percentages, that's some meaningful speculation right now IMO.

It especially irks me to see actually interesting and innovative projects like Iota's tangle fall victim to this IPO mess.
I fail to see why IPO is not a honest way to get initial funding? If you have a good white paper and all you need is money to implement it, IPO is probably the most honest way: win-win situation for both company making it and for early investors, if developers do the ob well. I don't see it being scammy by default. |

I do not think so. It might take over bitcoin in a few years if the bitcoin does not develop properly and there is big conflict in the community.
It's the matter of months if not weeks if you ask me. |

There were few other coins pretending to be game-changer, that have faded to oblivion or went nowhere: BlackCoin, NXT, WhiteCoin, NEM (did it even launched?), Ripple and so on. No technical novelty will make any coin defeating bitcoin. Just no What a closed mind-set. |

1. Traded on exchange operating from a shed.
2. IPO coin (all IPO coins are scams, no exception)
3. Pre-mine
4. Has no limit, which means 1 gazillion Ether can be created, which means it is as usefull as Zimbabwe dollar (actually Zimbabwe dollar has more use)
5. Has no use; nowhere accepted.
6. No decent wallet.
7. No development; just theories.
8. Extremely user-unfriendly.
9. Only used on exchanges.
10. Massive bubble, 1000%+ increase in just a month's time, for no reason whatsoever.
11. Exchange it is mainly traded on has been hacked times before. Very unsafe and unreliable exchange with little history.
12. Ether was promoted via a mass-spam action, which reflects on its community.
13. The coin has no liquidity. If you sold 100 BTC worth of ether, you'd crash the price by around 30%.
14. To continue on the previous point: it only requires 1 tiny whale (in comparison with legitimate cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Litecoin) to crash Ether.
Butthurt fool that haven't realised in timely manner Ethereum will be the Bitcoin killer. 1. Poloniex is one of the most reputable exchanges out there 2. That's simply a prejudice 3. Simply not, as far as I know. 4. There is news about Uber-type company using Ethereum dapp. .... bah.... what I'm I doing here, losing my time on jealous butthurts. |

As I'm posting this, Ethereum is still going through one of the greatest speculative bubbles any altcoin has ever experienced and in the meantime BTC/USD's volume is down while the price is rising.  People said the start of the year would be a safe time to buy because of the upcoming halving but that was too early, and it's still is. 420 is still above support and there's no guarantee that the coming of the halving is going to secure the price in the meantime, especially with the interest of speculators currently shifted onto Ethereum's bubble at large. You're never too safe with bitcoin. Ethereum is not exactly in the bubble mode. There's no Willy-bot and there is genuine interest for it. |

1) lack of fundamentals
2) artificially pumped bubble
3) anyone who holds alts during the coming BTC halving rise will be slaughtered anyway
What a sweet pile of delusional bullshit. |

Just another way to try and discredit bitcoin and create fud. Better sell before we break out of this triangle and the eth insider traders take all your bitcoins....although if you're holding eth at this point thinking it will replace bitcoin, you deserve to lose them anyway.
BS. There's genuine interest for Ethereum, and if Blockstream/Core is not removed, in few months Ethereum market cap will be bigger than Bitcoin. So obvious. |

The current marketcap is crazy for a project that did not prove nothing. Just words, hype and promises from the development team.
Do you really think Microsoft would take a serious look at just another crapcoin? IOTA is more a marketing product, than a real alternative to any serious crypto project like BTC, ETH, or MAID.
Would not say so given the whitepaper which is available... And no, IOTA is not going to be valued like Ethereum, neither gonna produce a 1000 ROI like NXT.
100x is very real. 1000 maybe too much, but not impossible. |
