Nah nah... OP ' s speculation of $250k is far too much without regulations?
And $40-60k this year, I doubt. I don't see bitcoin being stable for a week if it breaks its all time high for last year without crashing back below $20k. But, I don't see it hitting $30k.

Guess you sold off at $1,000 . Running off with joy... with some meagre profit at that time.


The most painful was when one of my altcoins was heading for the moon and I didn't know it was doomed to be dumped and after two days, the price crashed and I went into loss .

The happy moment is, I'm happy that I sold one altcoin at the right time.

Guys, please is there a way I could transfer my token that is in ethereum address to my MEW ? I could see my token in the etheruem wallet but it is not on ERC enabled . What do I do ? Thanks.

Sometimes predicting the movement of a coin I'd good because it guides an investor either to go in, wait for certain time or not to go at all. In other words, it would now be in research mode.

Meanwhile, waves for me is a nice coin, built like ethereum. $ 100 this year is not bad.

I believe it is not easy for you with struggling for after the incident but hodl for the first half of this year, by then you could see a profit from any of your 20 coins. This is a great year for altcoin. Sorry for your ponzi loss. Good luck

I prefer ethereum. The coin is beginning to get accepted by the whole crypto community. It is serving as optional to bitcoin and its transactions are faster and cheaper too. Soon, this coin would be the talk for every investor. Icos prefer it too which is a sure growth as you hodl.

It can't be denied that bitcoin is taking over the world economics and its recent come back is a proof. I see the coin doing wonders in just few years. The government support will speedily give the most awaiting lift to its growth.

Bitcoin is the big player. Most likely, anytime it is going down, altcoins too starts sliding but I have also noticed that the altcoins don't also appreciate rapidly the bitcoin do. Some altcoins never even recover after such slid. They just remean there, on the floor of the CMC.   

From the whole list of OP's catalog, number 10 and 35 are what I look out for first before any other criteria. 35 is very important and it indicates that the team is ready to see there coin through. So, investing with a team that has come up with new technology, maybe by way of separate wallet etc, will make me be optimistic about the coin because they would want to make a name too. I rather dine with such team.

You might not have noticed that there are some season or certain times that strategies , methods etc that where hitherto working and very accurately, starts failing for no clear reason. At this time, technical analysis don't conform to plan anymore.

Thus, going by the date of your post, this is around the time bitcoin was on an uncontrollable bullish ride , just like it went through free fall lately. At this time, no technical analysis was helping to understand price movements. This could be a reason you are blaming yourself for making wrong judgement of the market . Nobody could have got it better,  so get up, cheer up and start embracing the market again.

The politicians are usually the government officials when they are "elected" ,aspirants and ex officials. From whatever way it is looked at , politicians are people with interior and personal motives because politics itself is the manner or ways of sharing scarce resources.

Therefore, they - politicians can't say what will not benefit them whether directly or indirectly. Take away tax and what comes to the government, they might be looking seriously on how to totally erase cryptos from the face of the earth.

I'm hoping that the G20 meeting would bring more breath to digital currency .

Unfortunately, I have exhausted my merit. This kind of post and reality is why I agree with some fellas that, this merit system is not really doing what it is meant to do to the right post. The 'buttons' to the merit should be in the confines of the unbiase mode. This is, so that; either instantly, you get what you deserve.

Yes, I understand that it might not be easy for the mode , and I also know and understand how the (merit source) works - but we are yet to feel it .

My point is, I wonder why no user was moved to give an (s) or merit to OP's post from first page.  Or, either they have exhausted theirs like me too  

Alright, enough of vitupuration. OP,  I feel what your point is. What is happening to you is passion and in your own case, strong passion. Mate, it is normal. It is not that you are only guiding your investment but your body and heart are intertwined with your passion. This is just what you enjoy doing. We are both in same boat and luckily, crytocurrency is the new rave - very lucrative but be wise as you invest.

Come to think of it, that can only happen when regulation has taken place , then maybe to acquire cryptocurrency would now be a difficult task . It is very possible and thats what we are expecting to happen. Obviously, if regulation comes in , the market will be stable and focused.

But such account is a bad influence on the forum. Off course, a member that goes all the way to sell merit and with multiple red tag would perpetrate more attrocity with the same account if allowed to continue.

I guess an existing account continues to generate merit (if not stopped) which obviously would be used irrationally and inappropriate. Is just a bad influence.

You are not coherent to me OP. We need to get our writing straight and clear so that contributors would even know when they are derailing from the idea.

However , if I should say something about falling price and knowing when to sell. I can't certainly say if anybody here knows precisely what direction price will go. Even when you plot a graph and technicals , fundamentals to study the market, they might fail if the "wave" comes. Just as we are witnessing at the moment, some investors have dived in and expecting a reverse upward but market is still nose-diving.

In other words, instinct is also part of the techniques to trade and being successful

The estopping of the usage of cryptos have been a long time struggle. In the short time, It is a way to instigate panic selling.

On the other side,  if at all, I see the struggle being to achieve some level of sanitation in the crypto world to push out mediocre. These countries will come around in the long term.
It will work to protect investors , guiding against shit icos .

However, history has also shown that change is always resisted. Crypto is new and trying to gain grounds.

Yes , cryptos and taxing issues are synonymous especially with the huge money churning out from this new technology. Probably, the government could be looking for ways to want to tax investors but they really can't, if they don't put it down in black and white in their constitution.

It has to be backed by the powers of the constitution which would now be a guideline to punish evaders for instance. As far as I know therefore, I'm yet to read or hear a country that has actually adopted the digital currency in totality because if they do; it will be in the constitution either as optional financial means of transaction to fiat, in other to avoid being made a feast for the solicitors

What I then think is that , before taxing will seat, regulations and control will be introduced and if that happens,  whether cryptos are touched or felt physically will be inconsequential because the government would simply start from the registration and regulation of exchanges , off course we know why. Thats where withdrawals and deposit most times are sent to.

The price of bitcoin has always been speculative , nobody can say prices where price could head to. Really, negative news are suppose to drag bitcoin down but we also have to remember that last year after the ban news of icos , bitcoin went to the top. So, is all speculative.

I do believe that a sound and constructive communicator would appreciate this merit system. The system is nice and workable to push out lazy posters but I just hope that it won't be dragged to the mould by favouritism.

I'm already seeing signs to that favouritism. If mode could come up with ways to check these cheaters that are beating the system, it will be appaulded .
