First time to hear about this IDO, a new type of crowdfunding through decentralized exchanges. So after, ICO, we have IEO, defi and now IDO. I see the same thing for this crowdfunding.
It will be ending up as the same as other tokens but the first projects that will conduct this strategy would be the first most successful of them all. And the ones that will follow the steps of the first tryouts of IDO, they're already late and investors would just come and by to those projects without any seriousness but only to make money.

Never heard of this "CEL" crypto through Coinbase or is it the Celsius Network? but if that's a coin that they've ever supported and then delisted it afterward, they're the only ones that can help you. I'll compare it with other exchanges that are delisting coins and tokens onto their platform by giving a notice that users have to withdraw it with a given period until before they get out its fully support to that token. They can't really allow you to withdraw CEL to your bank account if that's a crypto, you have to convert it first with USD if it's tradable to another exchange or at least sell and convert it to bitcoin and then, sell bitcoin to USD to be deposited to your bank account.

Maybe up to 2022? we all have the same question and this is a guessing game until when this bull run will last.

Ethereum, Litecoin and other altcoins are also making themselves a run but it's not big as what you're expecting. Maybe you don't see the push for their prices but there's a small addition to them and you have to reflect on it until you see the bull run for alts starts. IMHO, it has already started but it's on a gradual process and could show its full extent after bitcoin's bull run.

We have no problem with bitcoin. And there is no question and doubt about it. For most altcoins, it's likely that many of them will be exterminated in the market and altcoin investors will start to realize that they have to consolidate their investments into one particular altcoin. Ethereum could be a choice or any other altcoin that's very popular. But what if most of these altcoins will just into a merge and will start supporting one coin, could be bitcoin and for alts Ethereum. Although it's hard to imagine that someday there will be a closeness to most of these investors if there are always developers that keeps on making new projects and will say that they have fixed the other coins fault and lack of features.

It just did broke $20k and within less than 24 hours price broke $23k.
The big institutions that have joined and invested influenced the market but this is also about the halving.
With the latest breakout to another ATH, google searches is yet to increase because we have lower than 2017 google search for 'buy bitcoin'.

That is a lot of tools that anyone can try each of it. But only choose what are the useful and you don't necessary to use all of them at the same time.
There will be some that will be useful and helpful to your trading or holding career to make our choices easier.
Usually the tools that I use are the ones to monitor the prices and compare it from one source to another one.

That seems to be a good offer for any stranger online but you don't do that. You don't trust random person on the internet that shall give you advise what to buy and when to sell. And what's with the borrowing of money? why did you allowed them to do that knowing that you haven't profited with them.
You don't have any friends if it's about investments. You will depend to your own guts and decision if it's about crypto investments. But a piece of advise that I can give to you, buy bitcoin!

To let you know, the highest that I've seen lately for bitcoin is $22,700. That's so far the highest and it looks like it doesn't want to stop its rise.
The more you hold bitcoin, the more profit you'll get obviously. The prepared investors that have bought bitcoin when it was quite in lower price, did a great decision.
And what we know about bitcoin as the best coin all of the years will never fade.

I doubt it but who am I to say that it won't happen because with the performance that bitcoin has shown, it's very possible that it can happen. With the 14 days/2 weeks remaining that we have for this 2020, with that time, a lot can still happen within that period.
So whether me and others doubt it that it can reach $25k by that given period, if it will happen and this bullish trend continues, who are we to say no right? But if not, leave the rest for 2021 and that's another year that can make our expectations goes into reality.

Sorry with what happened to you shubh. Just a correction for the spelling, it should be phishing not fishing.
Anyway, it's really a requirement to use 2FA apps like Google Auth or Authy whichever you prefer but I've seen experts are preferring more Authy. Would you mind to tell us what are those fake wallets and website that you've been a victim of? in exchanges and wallets, activate 2FA all of the time.

Being in the market for a couple of years, I don't manage bitcoin's price risk anymore. I'm looking to it as something positive just as its volatility will make my investment someday higher than what I'm expecting. Just as you've said that a forever hold guy, I think I belong to that group.
No worries even if the market swings from top to bottom and vice versa, what's important to me is that I'll see someday the bitcoin I've got will rise in an unexpected price. Although it's a tough game for holders, patience is really one of the key to overcome those market swings. With the experience and witnessing and enduring several bears, it made my feeling numb as I look at the price.

It has finally removed those barriers that stops it hitting that price. Next move is wait until it corrects as bit and if it makes the support at $18k to $19k, that would be the greatest support for bitcoin this time. I'm firm with my plan of holding it for more years and this only shows a greater encouragement that bitcoin can hit prices that we're no longer expecting before. Can you imagine when it has hit $3k on 2018? the majority didn't expected it back to $20k by that time and this time, we're expecting a higher price. I guess that belief increases in due time as it passes new high prices. And for the alts, we'll see that they will eventually rise with bitcoin.

Bitcoin is used to be volatile ever since it has been made. The likely that we're getting just like in 2017 is just a mere coincidence. Read the explanation of people on this thread[1].
[1] Why Christmas
You'll get ideas why we're having this bull run this month. Last year, we got almost the same bull run it didn't closed $12k-$13k and that happened on June/July IIRC.

That's for sure for bitcoin. The total market cap of bitcoin describes how huge it is and with those thousands of useless altcoins, bitcoin remains the best out of it.
The comparison would likely be bitcoin is gold and the rest of the altcoins market are just plain metal. While the top altcoins could considerably be the precious metals as well.

There's no actual pattern for that. We have seen that happened before and there is no certain clue when the 1, 2 or 3 scenario would happen. There's no actual synchronization of those and we'll just see it randomly. Each of those can happen at no particular order. Glad that you have asked this kind of observation as it shows that you're truly interested to know about how the market works but as a newbie, what you have to do is to follow the advise above which I'll quote for you and focus on it which is the easy step of determining your status in the market as you watch it. No need to worry about such patterns as long as you secure yourself while holding bitcoin.

It's the place of most scammers, they can change their usernames easily and groups could be composed of paid telegram members or a service that puts fake members into that group. Don't be fooled by those scammers and do your part of being vigilant not being greedy if there are giveaways or airdrops that have been said. It's an inappropriate reason that you are interested of that, you need to be aware and DYOR, check the official pages, websites and everything for that certain group or project you research.

And most of the market cap from low cap coin will eventually go to bitcoin. Investors become wise in this trend and don't wanna miss every single opportunity from the train we have for bitcoin. As you compare that we're like in 90s of stock market. I've also read some comparison for the great gold rush which is also similar 5 decades ago or so. Which is turning everyone into this great digital gold rush which is gaining itself becoming common due to the necessity that we have through internet.

Things are getting positive for bitcoin this time and it's coming from JP Morgan. Just going back and remembering a few years ago, they're one of the bashers of bitcoin and then turned suddenly that they're accumulating bitcoin that they've hidden for their own sake.
Bitcoin will take every assets share in the future once most of these investors see that there's much more opportunity that their money would grow by just buying and holding bitcoin. It's an asset class although a speculative one still, a very rewarding and they will not go wrong having it.

When there's a surge, that's what I usually ask. What's the common reason for that rise. I just want to know what's the reason behind it and as usual, the logical answer is the higher demand and lesser supply per se. Plans that we have when to sell doesn't really go along if you're impatient. Like selling at @$18k-$19k or any price that you set. Because when a newbie sees a plunge, he'll create a decision that he'll regret soon. They all think the same that it's like the end of bitcoin. I once had a thought like that before.
