The market has become excessively oversold which represents an amazing buying opportunity if you're a new investor but cryptocurrency as a whole isn't ending it's just a major correction
There's a huge increase in long trading positions that will help to create a turn around very soon

Soon there will be more regulation introduced in different regions including a global set of standards for ICO's
This will mean that projects will need to register with the relevant authority or apply for a license to conduct a fund raiser which will provide consumers with some level of protection for their investments and help legitimize the industry and eradicate scams

According to a recent survey 50% of consumers who've invested in Bitcoin think it's a good long term investment so if you're focused on the shorter term it might not be for you, but if you're in for the long haul then you'll likely benefit from HODL'ing even if you bought in at a more expensive price
If you're a new investor then big dips are the ideal time to enter the market as you'll get good discounts on alternatives
|

Historically an alternative asset hasn't led the market forward by any significant degree without Bitcoin playing a big role but that doesn't mean its impossible
The quickest growing asset in terms of adoption with the fastest transaction speeds would probably be the leading candidate in this case
|

There's nothing wrong with being optimistic provided you've made what you deem to be sensible choices based on conducting your own thorough research and technical analysis however, holding more assets doesn't necessarily guarantee you'll get better returns
It's important to diversify just be careful not to over do the risk factor
|
|
|
You can make moderate returns from this emerging market even if you are quite risk adverse simply by investing in the top assets only, but for a better performing portfolio it can be a good idea to add a select few higher risk assets just make sure you choose ones that have solid potential for future growth based on adoption regardless of market cap
|
|
|
Perhaps you'll worry less if you do more research about current market trends and important upcoming events which can have an affect on the price (ETF, regulation, adoption, halving etc)
Don't base your sense of "hope" on the opinion presented in this forum as you'll find a lot of it can be biased so make sure you discover the facts and draw your own conclusions
|
|
|
It's impossible to avoid missteps and losses entirely because no one can accurately predict the future movements of the market although you can rely on analysis to remove some of the guess work
The market is currently bottomed out and the recent upward movement didn't result in any further improvements price wise so it may be an indication that a breakout above the current trading range is not going to be easy to achieve although anything can happen
|
|
|
It's not like Bitcoin is all of a sudden going to shoot up toward $10,000 at the very end of the year!
For the market to climb out of the present bottomed out phase it will likely require more time even though a resurge can typically occur after an extended period of consolidation
|
|
|
Unfortunately not all will but that doesn't mean you should just liquidate all of your alternatives
If you have too many high risk assets in your portfolio that don't have a way to increase their usability and adoption it might be a good idea to diversify those into lower risks ones that do
Apart from that you could wait for another market wide pump should one occur again but that's more speculative
|
|
|
If you're seeking to invest it is obviously the best time to buy when the market is oversold
Trading is always going to be dicey as there's a large amount of volatility and whale manipulation in the market so you'll likely profit more from HODL'ing if you lack the necessary expertise
Chasing after quick profits can lead to losses as the risks are usually much harder to manage so do invest prudently don't just follow the hype
|

It is likely the market will begin to recover next year especially if an ETF is approved which will help pave the way for a lot of institutional investment to enter the market, and more regulation in will provide consumers with better protection which should improve the sentiment amongst the retail sector which has hit an all time low since the crash
|
|
|
The success of crowdsales not only depends on market conditions it also depends on the timing as some ideas can be more popular or trendy when launched than others
A lack of new investment can be attributed to the fact that there are still too many scams and vaporware projects which has reduced investor confidence overall, but once more regulation gets introduced the market should become a lot more attractive to both retail and institutions
|

Whoever's in here hoping for a significant increase in value perhaps hasn't realized that developments to the platform are slow at present and the market is still in a post-bubble scenario but there's plenty of expectations of a moderate appreciation by the end of the year regardless
|
|
|
Too many assumptions...
1) Not all experts have predicted an upcoming bull run in Q4 2) Volatility is not necessarily caused by price manipulation 3) There's no proven basis for cryptocurrency and stock market correlation
|
|
|
Lots of masternodes are copies of other projects code bases and won't offer much in terms of liquidity or ROI % once all the hype wears off but there are some that might offer good potential as a long term investment like Helium (HLM) but do of course research each one thoroughly
|
|
|
It's best to invest wisely and not gamble with too much high risk just make sensible choices and diversify your portfolio with a mix of low and higher risk assets
Keep in mind there is always the potential for the market to crash so don't invest what you can't afford to lose and be careful when investing in alternatives that don't have a proven track record just focus on the major ones and you'll likely avoid potential losses
|
|
|
It definitely should rebound when the market improves which will most likely occur by middle of next year if not a bit sooner and the focus should be on what institutional investors will potentially buy
In fact a lot of the very best alternatives are currently representing good value particularly ETH, XRP, and NEO even if they do dip a bit before the market takes off again
