There were many huge developments for btc last year that really pushed it into the media and people's attention.
The first, of course, was the price. It became trendy for news outlets to report on the price and that drove hype and popularity up to incredible heights. This all came to a crypto frenzy last dec. that pushed everything into all time high prices. It was really the first time that btc had become a mainstream thing. Of course, not mainstream adopted, but basically everyone knows what crypto and btc is now.
The other thing was there was a huge schism in the btc network. Scaling was starting to become a huge issue and the btc community was basically split on how to fix it. There were some who pushed for larger block sizes while others proposed adapting different protocols. Of course, there were those who wanted it to stay as it is. This debate included mining pools, blockchain developers, whale investors, etc.
It resulted in quite a number of forks (the biggest being bch) that still continues to today.
after reading your explanation, I got a lot of descriptions that made me understand the reasons for the difference between BTC in 2017 and 2018. It is very useful for me personally and beginners who are still in the learning stage. to be a learning evaluation material later. thanks. suskes always for you.

I cannot fully believe in such a point of view. altcoin only goes down normally, that doesn't mean it will end or be destroyed. indeed, with the presence of several new tokens, it will affect prices in the market a little, but that does not mean that they will die for the near future. keep thinking in a positive way will the resurrection of the slump that is only for a moment. Keep the spirit !!!

in 2017 everyone was curious about BTC and started trying various ways to get BTC. so that in that year BTC reached the highest price. and this year 2018 everyone understands that BTC investment is very risky, then lots of drama and issues so that whales play a role to play the price. this is just a simple analysis, and my future will not take a big risk.
at the same time in 2017, making many people curious about BTC. at that time they had not thought about the risks. I hope people don't run fast to leave BTC which has made many people curious. thank you for giving a little description about the difference. success is always for you.

other than the price, what difference happened to BTC in 2018 and 2017 ago? then what is your hope for the future. according to your personal experience. thank you!

if we have to talk when to buy, of course someone will buy when the price is cheap. and will sell when prices rise high. actually not only consider the current price situation, but also have to evaluate the market situation in the future. indeed the ETH is currently at a falling price. that doesn't mean it will stop here. it is also possible to go deeper. all nobody knows.

very small possibility if bitcoin has to be (controlled)! no reason or method for that. and that will never happen. the government should support bitcoin by considering the future potential and technological progress.

ICO projects that affect ETH are becoming more popular today. even though the price is also decreasing, but still much in the interest of most users. it can also be in terms of technology and features in ETH that can attract the attention of many people. thanks.

you are right. I also want to say the same thing with you. Cryptocurrency is more likely to decline and is not stable this year. maybe many users also feel the same way. the problem is there is manipulation or not, i really don't understand that. I just concluded that in this year cryptocurrency was less stable. thank you

even I just found out that IGNIS also had a pretty good potential, for now I have no intention of trying it. but there's nothing wrong if I still want to know about the news. in the current market situation. thanks.

I don't really understand and understand what you say. I will remain in this forum to learn cryptocurrency. and fill my little bag with some good coins even though it's not in good condition right now. and I will not come out, instead I am silent and enduring. Thank you very much!

if another coin falls, I think that's a natural thing. we know that the prices of BTC and ETH are experiencing a protracted decline. maybe that is the reason to this day. it even seems difficult to predict when to jump. I don't know, I can only be patient for now and the day after tomorrow.
|

I suggest to be more careful in keeping the BTC wallet key, why is that? because if it is lost or forgotten, it will be fatal. may also lose forever. I have never experienced that, but at least remind each other. to be more careful and disciplined. hopefully it doesn't happen to other friends, because this is very important.

so far I have not been able to conclude that BCH will exceed ETH. may have to do extraordinary hard work if BCH wants (over-take) ETH. we know ETH is the king of ICO. a difficult thing to do. I prefer to be silent now.

considering that I am part of a new member who still doesn't have much experience, I can't think much about Aidrops. but that doesn't mean I don't follow developments or information. for now I have not been interested in airdrops. thanks

even I can't give a long comment about (XRP) Ripple. All I know is that Ripple doesn't have enough interesting potential. if it must be said to die, I don't think it's time. it's still possible to wake up from his long sleep.

I don't think you need to be really worried about the current situation of the price of bitcoin. if we look at the graph, that is a natural thing for bitcoin. Bitcoin also made an incredible leap as of the end of 2017. And I was sure at that time nobody knew that there would be a high surge at that time. thus it is not impossible if the BTC can repeat the jump again.
|

currently I only use ether wallet. for ETH coins I have not tried to get. it looks like the ETH coin is very good for long-term investment, and the price is also stable. My friend contributed to the ICO, I also tried to follow him. thus I will get more experience about ETH more.
|

I think it is part of the risk that you make yourself. maybe many people have experienced what you feel. losing thousands of dollars, be patient and don't panic. make it a valuable lesson and experience so that it doesn't repeat itself. keep the spirit of friends.

if you have to say bitcoin will be number 1, I think it's hope and dreams. it takes a while for that. through a long process that is quite complicated. the main factor is that it cannot be accepted by all countries, some even prohibit bitcoin. with bitcoin data being the 6th currency in the world, it's just an achievement.

10 ETH will take the target of 50 ETH in the near future, I see it will seem a little difficult. in a situation like this, something that needs careful and measurable speculation. if you win investing in ICO projects tempting and there is great potential, please do that. maybe it can be the right choice for you. Of course, with full consideration that will accurately reach 50 ETH in the near future. good luck friend.
