Will altcoins ever recover their value? A lot wont, some will and a few certainly. There are a lot who move from ICO to ICO and the ICO's are not relenting, tgere is project after project starting and at the moment we are seeing an increase in Bitcoin dominance. https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4900272.0;topicseen

Just happened across an article from May 2018 about a street artist who is earning crypto from his Graffiti work by placing a QR code for people to send rewards - great idea! > http://cryptotimes.org/bitcoin/street-artist-nets-1000-bitcoin-qr-codes-murals/https://www.pboy-art.com/biographieThis goes to show there are many ways to earn crypto and the lesson is to be creative and think outside the box. We can all earn crypto legitimately if we put our minds to the task and market the idea. Im just throwing it out there but I would love to read a part fiction/part historical novel about the creation of Bitcon and Satoshi Nakamoto

Potentially yes it might. Bitcoins value grows year on year and the lowest value every year seems to be higher than the year before for the last 3 years. But its an unpredictable market and anything can happen.
Why 1 year, why not 10?

Do you think Satoshi wanted the market to grow that much? So many different companies, ICO's, different opinions etc...
Obviously its hard to tell if the Satoshi entity WANTED the market to grow but im sure Satoshi was aware that it would happen. Its a simple case of supply and demand. There is limited supply obviously and we could say that the supply is actually reducing due to wallet anomalies (forgotten passwords, incorrect wallet adresses, etc.) Combine this with an expanding adoption im sure if satoshi could create bitcoin Satoshi would have forseen the growth.

At a time when FIAT currency is moving away from being physical to digital why do we want to change a digital currency into something physical other than collectables and wallets?
Smartphones are widespread so we dont necessarily need computers to use bitcoin

54%, thats up from 51.7% in the last 2 weeks, its growing. I floated a thread recently throwing out the idea of getting rid of useless coins and trading them into bitcoin even at a loss. I think for a number of months some people have started focusing more on bitcoin. This and a lot of people gave been burned by ICO's, bitcoin is somewhat of a reliable haven.

I believe also that both will coexist together but they will be used for different things and will perform as now differently. FIAT has borders, bitcoin doesnt, FIAT is rraceable bitcoin isnt.

I bought bitcoin when it was around $14,500 in January and I am still holding because I am not discouraged. I have great hope that bitcoin is going to increase in price and volume in some years to come.
I assume that as you are a Sr.Member this was not your first acquisition of Bitcoin? Anyone with a good understanding of bitcoin and what it was designed to do knows that increased adoption is inevitable and it takes time. Long term outlook of bitcoin is essential unless you are a trader looking to make gains.

Almost anything can seem complicated at the start but with perseverance and dedication anything can be mastered. All people need to know is the value of 0.00000001 for example And how a wallet works for sending and receiving payments.

This is massive and simply allows for an indirect way to spend Bitcoin, Bitcoin Cash, Ethereum and litecoin with 100's of retailers who dont accept crypto directly. I will be able to buy weekly groceries with Crypto (in a slightly round-a-bout way)

Yay, another Satoshi identity thread.
Why do we need to know who it is? There is nothing we need to know from him because his invention is perfect.
If that person did declare to be Satoshi, what proof would be required to for verification? Would it be believed?
None of it matters, its bitcoin that matters.

Bitcoin is emasculated weak and not what it used to be.
And there was me thinking bitcoin was getting fatter with higher values and more adoption. It may not be what it used to be in terms of useage but the technology hasnt changed. Im thinking now that bitcoin is there to be used in whatever way each one of us wants.

Well these are the times to be buying because next year and beyond the opportunity will be lost So this week i have topped up on Bitcoin and Litecoin for these reasons: For me Litecoin like Bitcoin is a future coin, a coin which will be with us in the future. We all know bitcoin is being used more as a store of value and is being 'spent' less. Litecoin will be the spendable coin.
I compare bitcoin and litecoin to Gold and FIAT. We dont go to a shop to buy goods with Gold we use FIAT same with Bitcoin and Litecoin, Litecoin will be the spendable coin IMO.

If the markets are not as good as the OP would like in 2019 just hold.
"If you cannot stick the heat, get out of the kitchen"
When getting into bitcoin and crypto you have to realise there are no guarantees and also there is a long term outlook not just short term

Yes must be regulated,thats what we needed now because they are so many manipulation and some new investors not coming because of the fear of government banning cryptocurrency.
No we dont need regulation, have you just read the thread? Manipulation is not a concern it is up to everyone to educate themselves and make the choice to either buy or sell when they feel is right. Bitcoin cannot be stopped, regulated or banned. Its useage as in entry and exit points can be but not bitcoin itself. Thankfully. There are still a lot of people who seem to have a sense of entitlement to prices always moving up

I would have thought saffron would be the most expensive commodity. Its certainly more expensive than Gold and yes bitcoin can be considered as one of the most expensive commodities in the world. Amazing when you think it is not a physical item.

I started reinvesting at $6180. My thoughts are that the $5900 was a double bottom chart and we will be back to $8000 by Sept 21 (ETF deadline) with an expected "sell on the news" pullback then depending on that outcome, either sub $10000 or over $20000 by Jan 1. ETF acceptance means little except it is a sign of future adoption by the big money.
What we need is bitcoin powered cellular service. Every phone is free but has a mining app that is required to run in order to have service, companies that earn USD but take investment and pay dividends via BTC, and a country to adopt BTC as their national currency (hello Palestine)
-Isa
Well we are at $6500 now so your $7000 is close but a bit late now to hit it. There may be a pump leading up to ETF and $10000 might be possible as per the OP but i really cannot see any country adopting bitcoin as their National currency - ever

personally, i dont care about market bull and bear, i always believe cryptocurrency especially bitcoin will be the future currency, so whenever the price up or down, i will still hodling it, its already 19months since ive buy and hold my btc
I can relate to this, i mainly hold and have been since I started. I have sold also but a small portion. I dont get too bothered about these games played by the traders. I believe in the future of bitcoin not in the here and now of the current trend.

To any newcomers reading this list of recommendations: Be especially wary of the following points, those are a great way to fall for scams and lose money: 3. Mine Bitcoins or other cryptocurrencies. [...] You can also try Bitcoin mining on any device with internet browser: on your computer, laptop or smartphone. 33. Try to participate in very risky High Yield Investment Programs. 58. Try cloud mining. 72. Borrow money for the purchase of cryptocurrencies. 73. Win Bitcoin in the lottery. No... just, no. Well i never would have thought of 100 ways to get bitcoin and some are arguably "Potential wats to get bitcoin" such as those rightly pointed out above. #33 using HYIP sites is not good advice, they would come under the topic of how to lose bitcoin. Good list nonetheless.
