This is my opinion too since I first met my bitcoin. As a person working in the banking sector today, I do not think the banks will survive in the near future. Cryptocurrencies can change the financial system completely.
lol survive from what? We will not going anywhere in near future. What will happen is banks will likely adopt blockchain and go full digital

those factors will only give temporal impact on bitcoin price, like previous events. i think only reward halving will have impact on bitcoin, or bitmex shutdown (only my hope)

If you don't understand how you can make money in the project after reading the whitepaper... that's a really bad whitepaper for me.
many times i read whitepaper only to find out that i don't understand anything written there. it only explain about how node chosen and similar boring things that investor like me don't really care about. so usually i use ico rating sites and ann thread if i want to know basic information about the tech. i only read whitepaper for best ICO only and go all in support 100%

Offering too high bonuses either locked up or not will still cause some form of uncertainty for investors and prompt weak hands to dump.
That might happen nevertheless if the product is solid and investors have their full trust to it then dumping will lessen. 50% for me is still reasonable especially for early investors but 70% to 100% is too much as it's more likely a give away. Having too high bonuses isn't a strong basis to call an ico as a scam because it does have many aspects to look at. solid product and investors with full trust aren't a guarantee that ICO will not dump on its first exchange. instead big holders will try to buy at lower price by dumping their big bonus and trigger panic sell. big bonus is not a sign of scam ICO but a sign that the token will become whales toy

2 times i made mistake, i not sell my token ATH after those token get their first exchange. So i'll likely sell immediately, if the token price get multiplied. Then for good project i'll buyback at cheaper price

Both are important but the money needs to come first, to me this is simple if you see a prediction that the next day is going to rain you take with you an umbrella to work, this is the same, we know that bitcoin will become huge so at first investors will put their money here before that happens, and then years or even decades later the adoption will come, something similar happened with the internet and almost every industry in the past.
both need money and i think we already have enough money, beside it bitcoin and cryptocurrency itself is money, lol. and you know what will makes cryptocurrency huge thing is its adoption, lol. adoption can't just happen if people don't know about it, and we don't have any marketing department to teach people how to use bitcoin coz cryptocurrency is decentralized and not a company. it is all depends on its community what had happened to some dot-com companies with their shares value was bigger than company value? they fell at dot-com crash. and now we face same situation, market crash, ICO hard to grow, new coins price free falling to the ground. lets take eBay as example, it survived and grow after dot-com crash because it continue to expand the company, reaching new users, and then it's company become bigger and shares price rise again. now what would happen if more ebay shares investor come, instead more ebay user? that will only become another bubble

Basically if ETF will be approved more investors will come into crypto and will be a domino effect and for sure adaptation will be done globally.
I don't think so. I'm not sure more investors mean more adoption. That will only bring more wannabe investor, who buy in ATH and sell when panic sell occur. I agree, etf and crypto adoption cannot be separated, will society adopt crypto if crypto itself is not regulated by anyone?
That goes to government for regulation, and that's only for real world usage (i.e if you buy bread from store). And as digital currency i have used crypto long ago without much trouble, even when no regulation at the time. see? no ETF needed

When i think about ETF, i think more investment will come. It is good for bitcoin and also alts. But how if it will become like late 2017? when majority crypto users are traders and investors who expect moon and lambo. And cryptocurrency become speculative things rather than digital currency.
Now we see the result. Crypto market hard to recover because no one want to buy, we only hold and waiting whales or random person to start a bull run or "institutional money" to come in. Same person who buy and sell.
I think we might see different result if cryptocurrency have wide adoption/real usage as digital currency, because that will bring continuous real demand. and market recovery wouldn't be too hard

Here is something I have observed as regard ICOs raising funds and why many are trading at below ICO price soon after listing on exchanges. The reason could well be the fact that project teams are making ICO tokens too expensive, almost at same level with what we had at the bullish market.Meanwhile,the market is now 25% of its usually market. Project teams implement better funds management strategies, avoid wastages and unnecessary expense and thus have a cheaper ICO, I personally believe that they can reduce their expense by at least 50 percent and thus ask for less, cheaper tokens as such, that way, investors will be better make returns on their investments.
I don't think so. Have you noticed now more ICOs have token price under 1 cent, and also have huge supply as 1 billion total supply for token now is a common thing. my assume is those presale and private sale investor dump their token coz they get token under ICO price

I think all bitcoin ETF attempts for the foreseeable future will be denied. It doesn’t seem to be negatively affecting the price. I do wonder what the hell will drive the next bull run though.
wait for whales pamp, lol I'm not expecting bull run. Organic price rise and stability (at 8k-10k) seem more safe. I dont want another bubble popped

Cryptocurrencies need to solve their problem first, before try to solve other problem. We need more crypto atm, we need more crypto card, we need faster and powerfull network. And KYC problem. That's what crypto need to solve now. Some coins have strong network, but still used as speculative coins. some tokens have tool for wide adoption, but built on a weak network. Cryptocurrencies created to be payment system, but they still not qualify for stable payment system

I was late to sell when it's at 1 cent, but i'm not dissapointed. Pundi x have really strong fundamental, this down is just because binance.
Pundi x just start first operation at Hong Kong, and start adoption in South Korea and Middle East. once all xpos delivered and working, everything will go back to normal, price recover and possibly moon

Lol cryptopanic. Why we need to hear Goldman Sachs? They are not crypto expert. Bitcoin is different than gold, beside that we still have huge potential market
|
|

Maybe they are overhyped, but ADA is still in development, at least it has Charles Hoskinsons ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) They are not bad coins, just too big volume for mediocre coin in current standart

those exchanges which start with airdrop of their exchange token will completely become dust after several week, so no effect to crypto market volume. also traders will always go to the safer and more crowded exchange

it is more like a tradition to increase subscribers, build your community and make a hype. To be honest, without bounty no one would retweet tweets and subscribed and as long as other project have more subscribers, investors can simply skip this project with low audience.
agreed. also in many case, bounty participant itself become investor for their promoted project. and bitcointalk still a centre for crypto communities, so signature still very effective

the best is of course money transfer and internet payment system. bitcoin will dominate payment system in internet if it was cheaper to use. i recently buy a domain with ripple because bitcoin fees too high

lol this feel like bounty
