Im not sure if you have taken this issue with very technical stuff but I have different and simple theory behind this. I think big corporations are able to tae larger volumes of BTC and thats why it becomes very affordable to them in first place. Moreover these organisation can easily implement trusted and costly payment processor used for the BTC but smaller organisation may fail into it. So what I suggest here is mare difference of the how small and larger organisation work with their portfolio. Apart from this if the processors are big then they theoretical have more customers and thus more use of BTC transaction which doesn't imply to smaller organisation. So you see here is devalue for the use of bitcoin due to lack of few factors! Thats just my theory and it could different really.

I think we are from having the last dip. There should be continuous exaggerated panic selling going on and thats what causing this dip. The more down it goes the more aggravated chain reaction of panic sell will start. Lets hope that nothing like that comes up front by the end of this month.

Yes, I agree that this dip is very healthy for those who wants to buy bitcoin at the start of this year and want to gain huge money out of it. Just the same way it happened with start of 2017 year, the only difference then and now is big prices. Rest of the patterns are pretty similar and could reused to make investment plan. So yeah some goodness is there in the current dip!

To be honest I'm against the coin which are being forked. They are always overvalued coins and the price tag is put on them once they are released into the exchangers. They however drain to death very fast in single shot as they proceed with the time and protect development. We saw coins like BCC, BCH, etc which were very very valued initially but later on everything got smashed to death. Lozl! These kind of coins are there which are overvalued. Next is XRP, as suggested by many people around here, is the overvalued coin because being centralised one it should never get to those heights really and must be below 1 USD for at least next one year or so. Its market cap to billion dollar was a joke and barely a spiked market.

Indeed. This way we can set up proper scenario for the trading and investment into crypto currency. I mean if we practice with the full fledge and know what we are doing then only we should go for staking our 100% savings really. However I wouldn't even choose to stake more than 20-30% of my savings becasue I think savings are also more important than getting greedy about earning more profits from it. We could need that money at anytime in our real life and thats why we should not put all the money into crypto currency. They are really unstable and unless and until you don't have perfect plan you should not go for it. Think twice before you invest.

I use the coinmarketcap widely. They seek the information from the all available servers of exchangers which they have. I think they have the most accurate information because the have the many exchangers available. However you can always compare the market from where they are showing the maximum market volume by clicking the market section.


Soucre: Coinmarktecap.

You can see the differences according to the volume that is being driven into each of the pairs etc. The whole thing depends on that.

Yup I'm pretty sure than many of the people got rich by the end if year 2017 and many more will be created in the year 2018 end. Most of them were also gotten their banks flooded with huge money who inserted into bitcoin back in the dark ages! I mean really those who had 10,000 bitcoins for 20 USD worth pizza are now enjoying the billions of dollars really and they might not be trusting their own luck at all! Oh all mighty Pizza boy!

Well, there are many more stories like this and many more might be hidden because they don't wanna show up their identity in the reality. Im sure all this is because of the faith in the bitcoin and proper planning of the investment plan. If we follow the same formula today also then you will see how we can work out to become rich.

Why are you so specific about the January 18th? I'm wondering why that date specifically driving you crazy about marking your words! :-) Its good thing really because I'm already waiting for the bitcoin to pop up huge. Bitcoin is so silent at this moment and there is no more marled cap gain since the start of this year. It was expected that BTC will gain some huge market cap in the 2018 year start but may be investors are not ready to take the shot yet and they are still having the hangover of "no free transactions" yet. 

However, I'm positive that bitcoin will never go down than 10K USD because thats the hard cap it is having now and the market cap is sufficient to hold it there. So lets hope that we will see some bright prices sooner and hold the BTC like we did already.

I think ETH is the best one but you can also look into KICK, Waves platform. They are the another best shot now a days and KICK is one of the great platform which helps us to create the whole ICO project on it. You can create your own token on the waves platform and let the thing run in the same manner as it would do for the other project that we see. Apart from this KICK allows you to run whole project on their platform and then they can raise the funds for you. These things are getting real simple now a days and its amazing to see they have made ICO's to run different ICO's.

Anything that is popular is controversial now a days and bitcoin is not the different story at all. So I'm sure that this justifies your presumption which is far than true. Bitcoin has always been called with different names and stories of bubble, 21st century rival and much more. Bitcoin's short journey with huge success is what making it so much controversial and I think there is no way one could stop it in the first place. I mean look at the media around us, the news could be 5% critical but they will outfit it in such way that it will become 100% critical news. This is why one should always stay from the media bugs like that which makes our bitcoin very controversial. Lolz. Its funny sometimes and serious thing for the national economic health.  

That was good you invested into TRX, this is currently most hot project that is going on and you can see the billion dollar market cap has been already achieved by this project. Im very speculative about this project and it is my gut feeling that it will reach the prices of 2-3 USD real soon. If you have investment in it then make sure that you keep it as it is and hold it until the project release more good updates. Im not sure about the DENT honestly and I have never looked into this project. But apart from this one I'm looking after XVG coin, SCL coin. XVG is for its natural spiking and SCL is for its 2.0 version release, a new update thats coming from the official blog. This is what driving me crazy this time.

I think bitcoin will not be able to hold the value that it has currently or neither any other currency will be able to hold its position as crypto currency. They will drain within next day of announcing that we are suffering from the major financial crisis because BTC is what holding most of the investment today with about 300 Billion dollar market. This means around that much money is in the market of BTC. If financial crisis is there then there could be forceful act of government to shut down such investment and bring the money back to the national financial system. Or at least there could be big investors who will be putting back the money into banks for the sake of their own safety leading to dropped value of BTC and other currency. This is what will happen according to me.

There is definitely no relation between people buying low valued under 50 sats coins and new comers in the crypto world. Thats just not comparable at all and we can not really predict it from the hidden data! I mean people are joining the world of crypto and I agree on that definitely but mostly when a new comer comes he will be joining the BTC or major alt like ETH. I know how a newbie really works or how his mind thinks when he first steps into the crypto currency. They come here all because of the BTC and not the alts. The alt coin buying or trading comes later on when they first start to lear what crypto world is actually?

The 50 sats coins which went up recently were a year old and most probably their development has come to an end which caused the hyper activity into them. For example, the XRP, which was worth 20 cents last to last week now has got billion dollar club because many of the new developments that were published. In similar manner the small valued currencies are now getting the attention because they are either fully developed or having some good news in the development.

If you know the share market or the torsional forex market then there is nothing new in the crypto trading too. But if you know nothing about it then everything would be new for you and you may find hard time finding a good spot for yourself. Here trading is fun game as well as serious stuff at some instances. The market is really really unstable here and you can be rich in blink of an eye or you could loose everything too. So understanding the coins and the related projects is real thing here. The study that you make on the coins is really important because that is what defines the real fate of the coin in the crypto market. You should checkout all the listings in the coin market website. Then choose the portfolio for you and come back in the forum to read about that coin project in depth Make the analysis on how they will out perform and when. Then accordingly make your investment.

That would be just holding and nothin much. The trading would be actively involving yourself into a trade and checking out the coin's market on daily basis. You may wanna apply some swing strategies in between if you see goo opportunities or if you see bad storm is coming soon. This way you can be actual trader of that coin. Holding is different thing really and making the real trades is completely act. Trade could also start with being at lowest possible prices and then selling at highest possible prices. If you accidentally fall into trap and the prices fall for that coin then you can just sell it in the early stage to gain less loss. Now thats good trading strategy. Next thing you will do is to buy that coin at the lower rates and lower than the exit point point at what you lost the trade. This way you will gain the profits real quick ones the coin is back on track. Thats real trading.

Yeah this is what happening over the time I believe. What you are suggesting here is true upto the mark. I think for bitcoin to become the bubble it needs to undergo elevated upgrades or changes in short. I mean if bitcoin shows up the power of its utilisation in the first place then it can be real thing or achievement for it. Otherwise most of the analyst around the world call it as bubble already. The boom step that you are depicting here is actually done already when the bitcoin past the prices and market cap of 200 Billion dollar last year. Because that was unimaginable MCAP for it and no one ever imagined that it will happen for next ten years which happened in snapshot! However, the trillion dollar market would be actual bubble that has yet to come and who knows another euphoria this year might just take us one step closer to that one too. So yeah, your five steps are what we need to achieve to get to that bubble and the reality later on.

Why not. Bitcoin is having all the possibilities to gain the market cap in the year 2018 and show us the dream prices of 40K or more. This is juts double of what we are seeing today. The rates could be achievable because in this year number of followers of the crypto currency and specially the bitcoin will increase to double and thus the followed investments too. Also there is one positive and indirect approach of investors now days who are coming from the alt coins side. I mean as we see the alts are growing fast and people are getting into it, some portion of this is also shared with the BTC indirectly and thus we see the good leaps in the bitcoin market too. So yeah this is perfect year to grow in double and the easiness of which will come through the contained development of the bitcoin.

The thing is crypto currencies are getting their power from the fiat currency only. You go to market and buy the crypto currency with your bank which is nothing but usual shopping. The fiat will always be there or should always be there because that is what giving the crypto market a real value. We have fiat with fixed value and that’s why we have value to fiat. :-)

Free of charge currency is not there but you can always enrol into different airdrops which offer free coins for you. This as equal to getting free coin or currency and this you can later on trade with the fiat.

In the crypto however you have to mostly warn money yourself and they say that there is no such thing called as free lunch box. You have to work for it and earn it. :-)

If this really happens then we will see new ways of earning as well as new ways of spending the bitcoin. I mean if it gets published all over the world then people will Lao take interest to invest into it. This will surely increase the market cap a lot and thus we will see all new price for the bitcoin.

This is like attracting more investors in natural way towards the bitcoin and making it very stringer day by day. Apart from this human culture will evolve in great way in terms of business relation amongst two different spheres of the world and different countries as well. Bitcoin will give equal opportunities to all of us.
