I should have passed the decision not to sell my investment but with the ongoing decline till the end of 2018 I can't make it go away. Yes, maybe it's a new lesson that should be fixed when the new ATH comes back, as @adaseb 'sell in parts and buy in parts' that is good decision, so as I have already benefited even though the price of bitcoin has dropped dramatically.

Yes, I can justify what was chosen by the OP. Hold is a way to recover losses that have been felt. I guess the OP uses money that it can afford when it finds a loss, and with the confidence that it has towards BTC and ETH he chooses as a very high investment place. Hopefully, this year can be a good year for cryptocurrency so as every investor gets trust again to invest in.

Honestly, you don't buy bitcoin on your investment, it's very regrettable. I only heard and read information that in 2019 there are many altcoins that will not have a price, they call it shitcoin. Hopefully, the coins you buy are not included in shitcoin, or maybe you can change them back to sell some and exchange them to bitcoin.

After the price decline that occurred in 2018 and the predictions made by each expert who do not match with the facts, I am not sure I need to listen every prediction from an expert. I only believe in those who predict according to the fact, for example some companies will accept bitcoin in 2019 and will make the price of bitcoin rise, maybe it can be trusted. However, for those who predict only by looking at the price movements of bitcoin in the previous year, I'm not sure that's the right thing.

Maybe your opinion is right, investment in bitcoin is different from other investment places such as investment in land or real estate, I am sure both of these investment places will provide large profits for everyone who chooses long term investment. Unlike investing in bitcoin, everyone is still confused about the future of bitcoin, especially the regulatory issues and functions that can be used by the public when accepted by various countries. The number of cryptocurrency so far is very much not only 100 coins, so there are many opportunities for each country when he wants to adopt one of the coins legalized in their country.

No, for investors who have invested in bitcoin for several years. I guess they have understood the characteristics of the price of bitcoin, even I have a friend who has invested since 4 years ago, he wants the price of bitcoin to decrease so that he can buy as much money as he has. He only gives me one reason, bitcoin will have high prices and all parties will use bitcoin in the next few years. Actually I'm not sure that will happen, but his confidence in investing in bitcoin is very high.

Being a bounty hunters who can be sincere is very difficult, the problem is that every ICO project runs almost 1-3 more and this takes up the bounty hunter's time. Meanwhile, when the project was completed and the needed funds were reached, the next problem came, the distribution of tokens that could take more than one month. And the bounty hunter must wait for the token that they want to come to their wallet, besides the scam project or token they get is not balanced with the work they have done.

Indeed, it's a good idea when developers give a tokens on time or before the ICO project ends, or another ways bounty hunters really want each of their jobs to be paid with altcoins that are already in the market, developers can share the type of payment like one month they pay participants with altcoin like ETH and the next month they pay each participant with their own tokens.

Playing gambling on a casino online provides convenience for every gambler who lives in a country that prohibits gambling. It seems that if a person is accustomed to gambling but he has never gambled at the casino, it can be questioned that he is a gambler. As for the problem whether or not it depends on the gambler itself, many of the gamblers are cool when they gamble on their own, without anyone around him. And there are gamblers who prefer to gamble in crowded places with drinks or things that support their hearts to be positive.

I just think there are many investors out there who have gained a lot of wealth from bitcoin, so as they will suggest to the people closest to them or in forums like this to invest in bitcoin. Most of them do not pay attention to the technology and functions of bitcoin in their lives, which they hope is only good information and they will sell every bitcoin they hold. Maybe that's a reason for some people who believe bitcoin will always be at the top of the cryptocurrency market.

First, I came to invest only to get profit. I am not hypocritical because I have suffered a huge loss during 2018. Also, I will get the crazy title when selling investments that I have now. Second, as long as the risks we will always face when deciding to invest, wherever the investment is, an investor will be faced with several risks. Third, don't focus too much on the bull run, cryptocurrency is not as sophisticated as you would expect, need a process maybe a few months until the cryptocurrency market is flooded with purchases.

I know that, ETH has gone down to the price of $80 a few weeks ago, and when that price was a great opportunity to put up a buy, I don't know how many people bought ETH at that time and sold it now. There is no convincing that ETH prices will recover or at least reach ATH last year depending on the overall market conditions.

It's useless, if ETH developers update their systems to a better line and are liked by many investors until they are interested in buying and the price goes up dramatically again if in 2019 the bearish market still tuck the cryptocurrency market. The increase in bitcoin prices is different from the increase that occurred in altcoin which did not have a big effect on the cryptocurrency market as a whole.

I only have investments in Bitcoin, Tron and BCH and until now only store them in the online wallet. Indeed, I will face many risks if I choose a long term investment and only store it in an online wallet, but I myself do not focus too much on the long term investment, sometimes I will sell my investment if there are good signs to sell and of course minimize the crashes that will be faced. Hardware wallet is indeed highly recommended for long term investments, the risk of losing coins is very little, only I have not been interested to use it.

When the price dropping you will not get a profit, but if you buy when the price is low and wait for a while the bitcoin price rises then you have the opportunity to make a profit. Everyone has a misinterpretation when a price dropping someone can make a profit, I do not believe it really happened. You can remember the basic strategy for profit, buy low and sell high.

You can define between gamers and gamblers, not everyone defines the two people have the same vision, which is satisfying the hobby they want. I guess being a gamers starts with hobbies and gambling and starts with a hobby. But the difference is that every gambler must be willing to put his money in the hobby they want, the only goal of winning is to get money to be able to gamble every time they want.

Every bounty must also know the authenticity of the project, do not just assess in terms of the potentiality of the project. Today, the bounty hunter only looks at the prediction side if the project is completed from the bounty campaign, without looking at the team's credibility in the project. So it's not weird when the bounty is a scam and the bounty hunter blames himself.

Actually, I prefer bitcoin to be a payment system, not a place that is hoped to be to make someone get rich. Because of that, many people regret having owned bitcoin, they are experiencing losses that are reluctant to return to having bitcoin. Different if bitcoin continues to be used as a payment system, maybe until now no one has felt disadvantaged because they have bought and owned bitcoin. I myself really feel the ease when using bitcoin as a money transfer place especially for different countries. This is really needed by everyone, because using a tool that is regulated by several parties is very complicated to solve.

I guess it is a process, gold can be recognized by everyone and even many people be very fond o, it because their government accepts and recognizes gold as a valuable item. Same with Bitcoin, when many people want to use bitcoin and especially the government recognizes that bitcoin has value then sooner or later everyone will be fond of bitcoin. The problem with the relationship of bitcoin is inseparable from technology, so it is an easy matter, everyone already has a smartphone and internet, with these two tools you can turn things around, I mean every thing you do not know then both devices can be a bridge to know what do you want to know.

For people who are still hesitant about the price of bitcoin for the next few years, you can see and follow every one of what Jhon McAfee said. Logically it is hard to believe, with the bitcoin price movements that always decrease monthly. However, he has another view of the future of bitcoin, he even predicts the price of bitcoin will touch $ 1 million in 2020, a figure that is fantastic and he swears when the price of bitcoin does not reach that price in that year he is ready to eat his cock. He is a person who is very enthusiastic about bitcoin, let's wait for what will happen.

I appreciate what you say, but I have a little less understanding of the reason. So, you can provide an explanation for why this can happen. For me, bitcoin is a reason why altcoin exists, as well as ETH. Most cryptocurrency users must have bitcoin on investment, this is something that is definitely done. When your words really occur, then I guess all altcoins will not exist. The reason is quite simple, they are afraid their money is lost because bitcoin is dead, which means it will happen to all altcoins.

The price of cryptocurrency can be influenced by various speculations, including what you say. However, for now it is not easy to give a passionate injection to cryptocurrency investors, most of them already have different beliefs, I mean, previously if there is someone or some experts who predict the price of bitcoin for intance then they will rush to buy bitcoin, but in fact the prediction is very far from the approximation. Had better you can save what you have for a while, if you believe in the future of cryptocurrency then you can entice some of your friends or relatives closest to you.
