We are sure all hoping for the same but not so fast. What happens to being realistic ? We all keep coming moon but instead we have all forgotten that steady growth is even more important than just mooning up or expecting some bull run like it is always going to be that way.

It would sure be a good thing for the community to see the price of bitcoin skyrocketing but it is not something we should just expect would happen all of a sudden. I would be happy to see some $25k to $40k levels by end of this year rather than expecting some unrealistic levels like some people do speculate in millions.

I would really want to assume that as well, until further notice anyway. We all expected more low after the market fell back into the downtrend channel, but on breaking it, we can see some patterns already forming with the bulls showing some actions. The market may end up moving up further in some few days, but we will have to wait and see. I am still keeping both sides open though as anything can always happen at any time based on how things have turned out in the previous months.

No market is capable of keep rising all the times. But most people are not ready to accept these facts. They are happily accepting when the rise up is about to start but when fall down happening they do cry. Yes, we must understand that growth and fall down are part of every markets.

Simple! It is even absurd to be asking such a question in the first place.
It is more like trying to invest in something and asking a passerby if I should invest in it or not. Obviously, the passerby can just give a random question, but does that mean he is right ?

Everyone should be able to make investment decisions on their own; otherwise, they are not qualified to be an investor in the first place. If OP cannot check out if he should be investing, I wonder why we should be the ones bothered for him.

Obviously, some of them never understood the risk and they never even understood anything and all they heard was the news about how bitcoin has made people rich, how it was less than a dollar and how it is going to turn out to millions and they thought, this is a good way to get rich and never bothered about digging further into the area where they are putting their investment.

In that case, it is normal to always see people who will cry no matter how you give them a hint that the future remains bright irrespective of what is going on.

It is normal in every market, as we cannot definitely expect the price to start soaring after long days of bear in action. It is very normal to build resistances on the way down and very normal to have them broken before we can even think of hitting the previous all time higher price levels.

Even though, some levels of resistances are stronger than the other, so we should always expect the response to always be quite different. In that case, those who are expecting some huge level of bull run immediately will still have to take some chill pill.

Anyone who tells you that bitcoin has no value must be a full time fool. If Bitcoin has no value then we will all be picking it up for free and we will also not make any single profit from it. How can you be telling me that something that is worth $9000 has no value ? If it has no value then why are investing on it ?

If it has no value, then why are so many people working very hard everyday just to earn from it. Don’t believe anyone that tells you Bitcoin or any other cryptocurrency has no value, they might be just jealous or angry cause they never had the chance to join. Bitcoin has value and the value is the current price it’s being sold for.

Once we are able to change trend from this correction, I am very sure the next target to go hit is obviously $11k and that is something I am not really optimistic we will get past though. However, the market is one surprising market which can actually decide to do its thing most of the time without any form of apology.

The only thing we can just at least rely on is the trend and once that is intact, I believe we should know in a matter of weeks, where we are going to be headed from any of the resistances above us.

Very funny.. lol. Who lost interest in bitcoin ? You ? No one has lost interest in bitcoin and in fact, at this dip is even when the smart ones are getting even more interested. What else would we have expected from a market driven by people who were trying to make quick bucks and get rich overnight ?

Speculation driven market always result into FUD when the market is being blown away by negative news and only those who are no longer interested are the weak hands as the strong ones are still in the game.

I wonder why a lot of people think that they would just get to see another bull run with the market hitting the all time higher price levels like it did December. They must really be dreaming.

Still, like you said that I still see either $10k or $11k in sight as it is and from there we may actually get to know what is really next. Rome was not built in a day and the mindset a lot of people always have that they want to get rich in few hours is alarming which has always been one of the major cause of the insanity going on in this community.

Yeah I agree , it is time to buy up now before the big launch, even these two months we had bear markets I was always bullish on main coins. Cryptocurrencies like bitcoin, litecoin, ethereum and so forth has always been bullish in the sense that wherever they fall down, they will go back, you could actually purchased bitcoin at $20k and I still think its not a bad investment because it will go beyond that.

It is of course bad that its at $9k now and you lost some opportunity, of course its better buy as low as possible but that doesn’t mean you won’t profit when bitcoin goes over $50k one day, maybe tomorrow maybe a year from now maybe five years from now but it definitely will rise back up higher than we imagine.

My first exchange was actually poloniex and bittrex as well until poloniex started messing up and I guess they have lost that privilege from me already of being referred to as a good exchange. Although, there is really no exchange that does not have its own flaws but for the time that I have been using bittrex, I have never had a single problem and there comes binance which even started making things easier.

Security wise, as long as you are using a tough measure such as 2FA and you do not give any phishing a chance, one should always be good on any of these 2 exchanges.

If people cannot take just little risk in life, I wonder what they are really living for since every investment is actually risky but at least for someone who can take their time to understand the cryptocurrency market and the opportunity the abounds, I believe it should be easy for this caliber of people to take into account the fact that this is the future and investing no matter how little can be worth it in the long run.

We cannot force anyone to do what they would not want to do anyway and that is their cup of tea. But time will make them realizing the fact of how much it will pain on missing out one per life time opportunity. Yes, not investing in crypto and especially with bitcoin may turn as a life time mistake too.

Obviously, market will never remain in a single position and will always move and this is the reason why no one should be waiting for the best time, but they should instead be looking at the best opportunity the already have now and not let the chances blow away.

I do see lots of my friends too have missed $6k because they were waiting for lower, but the best time to buy is when everyone has sold and there is just no more people selling and even if the market ends up moving downward eventually, then either you wait it out or you buy more.

Normally, no one will be ready to offer service without putting that into note. It is a good step and most especially in this world where it is easy to render services for anyone anywhere in the world and easily gets paid within seconds.

Moreover, all that is needed is to give a full definition of the service he is trying to render and like someone rightly said, there is a need to even try to add some level of promo, depending on the service, I believe there would be competitors already and it is necessary to know how he would want to beat them to it.

Well, I believe that is why the OP has decided to share it. The thing is information is always the key and you always get new information when you always read and search for new things which I believe most people always find very hard to do but prefer their own lazy and easy way to things.

There have always been some great community members who always are ready to help in their own way, but the community has been polluted with some who are just after the gains and ready to mislead a lot of people. It is good having something like this.

Apparently, most people who do not understand how the market works are the ones who usually see things that are not there. The market was due enough for correction and we are in the corrective phase, which is believed to at least, have a little bit of slowing down in the midst of a flight. A lot of people always expect the market to just keep moving up hugely without thinking that there is no way that can ever happen even outside the cryptocurrency market.

Those are just some speculations which a lot of you always use in consoling yourself anytime you see any downward movement in the market as you will just get to see people who will be so eager to read meaning into everything just because it is what they believe it to be. Yeah, all those happened for sure, but the market was really due for correction anyway since it was overbought and a little pull back was definitely necessary.

I am sure those who are very vast in technology or some information technology savvies are always going to be the ones to enjoy a whole lot of this in the long run, while we may end up having some not so savvies as laggards in the long run unless they cut themselves lose from the ignorance they have been tied to.

A lot of opportunities abound in the cryptocurrency space in general and depending on each individual, it is just so much to go around from business to earning and rendering of services.

This simply summarizes it all. I know a lot of people have said it does not have to do with the person, but it surely does. As long as you can compensate your earning with your living without doing more than yourself, one will still be able to live right.

Yeah, some places are more expensive to live in than the other, but we also have to understand the level of income they earn as well on the average. Nevertheless, earning some pretty good income in some places though would make it very fun to live in them with some huge level of peace and happiness.

Right, we still do have a lot of time in our hands to know how things are going to end up turning out. If bitcoin has attracted lots of new investors last year by its wonderful rally from $1k to $20k and those people are waiting for perfect buying points then there will be no doubts that there will be no more bottoms for 2018.

Judging from what has happened in the past with bitcoin's movement. We all know how easy it was for bitcoin at some point to bore holes on what we all assumed could be a support and dug past it. You have said it all and this is certainly more like the bots trying to rip a lot of marginal traders. Hopefully we get to see a green light and even if we do not, at some point, we will be back up.

Most especially the altcoin markets and we may actually get to start seeing bitcoin entering a period of consolidation for a while now and then we may see how things turn out for the altcoins. Most of the time, seeing the market this way shows some bullish signs are coming up and we always know how the table is most of the time. Let us see how this one is going to be playing out in the coming weeks and days.  I sure see some pretty good rise in the market though.
