Hi Forum
I would like to know what real value you think HODLing adds. What is the point of just holding bitcoin till moon and lambo ? This is cryptocurrency, why aren't we using this as currency? If we all just hold then this whole thing takes on a completely different business model, we lose all real value that it has as currency and it just becomes a full on speculative bubble.
Bitcoin and other currencies have no value if nobody uses them. So I would like to encourage everyone to spend and replace instead of just blindly holding. We won't see merchant adoption skyrocketing if nobody buys stuff with bitcoin. And yes I know it can go up in value, but why not just spend your BTC and EFT some fiat over to your local exchange and replace the BTC you spent ?
If any businesses accept BTC or other currencies it is our duty to support them extra for it and use cryptocurrency.
All of us has a different description on what is happening now in the market but even there are a long period of downfall many of us really holding there bitcoin. I think that those people are really admiring and patronizing btc in all the years of it's existence in the market that is why they not easily surrender their coins and still stay and hold in what they have right now. There believe and trust to the capability of bitcoin is I think up to the sky. And even there investment are in danger zone they always thinking that it will move upward again and btc are leading their way to success. |

I would say that BTC was in a bubble, because let's be honest, the value we saw during December-January was insane, it was artificially increased, it just couldn't keep at that rhythm. Now I think we are seeing its actual value, which in my opinion should be around $6-7k, and I really hope we will start to see a slow increase, but unfortunately this market is too small and some people can really do almost whatever they want, so I think we'll see these pumps and dumps for quite a long time.
I think your right. I think that this is really it's normal value maybe people are shocked because in the last months of the year 2017 there's a very high pump happened and the people are just hoping that it's value won't be downfall again in much lower value. However, there is nothing we can do for that. It's very difficult to us on what are happening as of now but we need to hold on and hoping that one of this days the fluctuation will be better again and no more downfall will going to happen. |

In the USA, bitcoin is regarded as property. Therefore, capital gains are involved for property held less than one year. If you are paid in crypto, it is treated as ordinary income. For 2018, the IRS will be watching out for trades and sales. Last year people who declared gain from coins numbered in the hundreds, not even a thousand. If you trade one coin for another, the coin you trade will be valued as of the sale or trade date.
That's just legal way of taxing bitcoin. In our country also, bitcoin has tax. In every cash out of bitcoin, there is corresponding tax into it. Well, its also good because you can contribute to our country, Yes I agree to that. Taxation will be good to have when it's really goes to contributing for the needs of our community and our country. It is better to help others in a good cause by simply paying some taxes to the government and hopefully it will be distributed to the people who are really indeed. However, when it comes to the taxation fee, it is better if the fee are so reasonable for everyone. What I mean is the government will able to give a taxation fee in affordable cost so the people who's paying this are not been objected for this. |

Everyone around me says, " sell all your tokens before bitcoin dies." Please tell me how to do?
For me, I must say and really believe that bitcoin will never die. After the many years of it's existence to the market it always proven that it's system are totally build with a strong foundation which is has the ability to perform better again after it's long period of downfall. Maybe the main problem here is the people who are really nervous because in what they saw in the market. Some of them are do a panic selling which absolutely cause of losses. I suggested you to believed in what are you wanted to believing for ans don't easily trust and agree to others because in every decision you'd make are only be affected is none other than but only you. |

can bitcoin back as it used to go to the highest price in the price of 1900 $ so that users can enjoy back when bitcoin to the moon
I hope positive on bitcoin will be able to go back up to be able to give a positive impact on users financially
give your feedback
No matter what the price are your talking about I must say that no one can tell what will totally happened. Bitcoin are full of volatility, all of it's fluctuation is normally to it's system. It continuous fluctuate every minute, every hour or every day of it's existence. Nobody can predict it but for sure it goes higher soon and hoping that it will be continuous rising for a long time so everybody will be happy. Just have patient and always think positive. |

bitcoin can go again down? If yes then why?
When if you mean by Down is regards to it's value then my answer is Yes. That is possible to happen because it's system built with a high volatility which means that it can go down very hard or it can be upward so much. No one can predict what exactly going to happen but one thing for sure and that is after a long run of deeply dipping there's always a high rising up occur. For now it still continuous looks green in the market and maybe it is the start of moving up again. |

Do you think Bitcoin still has the mass interest and a lot of popularity?
BTCBTCBTCBTCBTC
After a long run of it's dumping, I do believe that it's maintaining it's popularity as a matter of fact because of it's long time being red in the market it become much popular and hot topic in media and other source of it in the internet. Maybe there's a massive interest and adaption happened in the past few days. Other people do investment for this because they taking advantage the situation where in its in the lower value. Many of us thingking that it will be the right opportunity to become one of the rich people in the near future. |

I'm really frustrated right now, coz I have lost a big amount of money, I could have used it on some important things but I chose to hodl Btc hoping it would go up after being down for so long. Been waiting for it to rise back, but can't really hodl for so long coz at times I needed money and no choice but to exchange it a low price. Hmm , I just try to focus on some other things than to think how much it cost me hodling it till now.
It's really hard to think that btc value are continuing dumping because a lot of us are invested to it. But there is always the fact that this system has and a high volatility which means that it's truly risky when we invest to it. We never know how dip it can be or how high it should be. But one thing is for sure and that is bitcoin will never die and it always keep standing strong in the market. |

It appears the market started recovering today from one of the worse long-lasted corrections in bitcoin history. The bitcoin now secure the 45% of the cryptocurrency market dominance. what you have to say about that?  It's really a good thing for us but that little percentage of it decrease can't we consider as the truly start of it's recovery maybe it is just a normal flow of it's volatility. It's better for us to prevent some expectation that it is the beginning of rising up. Just remember that less expectation, more good things will come. Maybe we can be happy for it's little bit rising up, for making it green again in the market. Well never know what will happen after this so the best thing to do is relax and hoping that it will continuously be green in the market. |

A hard hit may not be a bad thing, stopping the irrational game in time to really save bitcoin. It would be a real disaster if bitcoin were allowed to become a highly speculative target.
I think the price reduction is a good thing. What do you think?
I think it's not totally a bad thing maybe I could say that this is in a curiosity level. The continuously dipping are really gives to the people nervous because they only think that there are possibility that they've been suffered from losses if it's dumping will not ended and because of that the panic selling ideas was appear. I think their mind are totally blocked by the cause of situation. Maybe just starting to think positive and try to make a new idea or strategy on how we can survive to this situation. For example, for now I think this the right time to buy more coins because it's price are so low and I'll do it for a while and I'm waiting for the right time to sell it in much higher cost. Then it will brings to me much higher profit in the future. |

is their any institute or college that can grow knowledge about bitcoin? or any other way to get clean knowledge?
I think until now there's no particular schools or institute that can provide any knowledge about bitcoin. Maybe we can get some information about it thru internet but not clean knowledgeable as you want because there are many fake news are spreading in the different site on internet. We can gathered a lot of information here in the forum. Patiently read many discussion or topic for you to be able to gain full knowledge about bitcoin and other things sorrounding to it. Gathering information is better when it comes to your own experience. |

While I'm reading Tony Robbins' great book Unshakeable, I decided to go to coinmarketcap and check the graphs. I noticed that there is another correction and when I went to this forum, I see posts about negative things in bitcoin. Well let me tell you something -- a part in the book that I'm reading.
"In 2009, blue chip companies' stocks went to pennies on the dollar. Citigroup sank to a low of 97 cents a share from $57 a share. You can literally own a piece of the company for less than it cost you to take money out of an ATM. But here's a kicker: winter is always followed by springtime, and sometimes the seasons turn much quicker than you'd ever guess. This 97-cent stick shot to $5 within five months, giving investors a 500% return."
All I can say is that when the market is very depressed, negativity from news, forums, discussions may arise. People really pulls out their investments as a reaction to its very low price but let me tell you this: Big time investors like Warren Buffet, treats bear market as an OPPORTUNITY. They buy while the market is in its very low value, equipping themselves for the future. Winter will always be followed by spring, market will always be reversed irregardless of how long the bear market will last. Imagine if you pull out all of your cryptocurrencies and the market soon skyrocketed, you will miss LOT OF THINGS.
HODL my brothers, winter is here. Are you the one who's stuck outside, freezing in the bitter cold? Or do you want to be the one who's wrapped up warmly by the fire, toasting marshmallows?
It's a wonderful story and it's really related in what are we encountered now in cryptoworld. It wanted us to understand that after all the problem or the trouble or an ups and down we experience is there are always be the way or chances to survive. It is like now, we experiencing a nonstop dipping down of coins value in the market that causes some of us are really nervous and do panic selling because they afraid to loses. But even if the situation is like this, we need to be brave and have faith that this long run of dipping down will end soon and the upcoming highest pumps are awaiting. It's better to keep to our mind that as long as we alive there's only a chance and hope for everyone of us. It is also like a rainbow that appear always after the rain. |

Hi guys me want suggestions
me planning to sell all my btc and wana buy etherium ETH as btc is down 6.23 % in 24 hr and eth is down 10.68 % so me thinking best time to buy eth as it will grow
what says guys ?
Anything that you wanted to do to your investment is up to you but let me give you some advice. I just thinking that you can invest in both of it. Just do a diversity, maybe you will locate your 50% of it to bitcoin and the 50% left is located in Eth. Both of it will surely gives you a better profit in the near future. It's also good thing to do is be calm and do patiently wait for the upcoming highest pump. |

I just stop looking at bitcoin price. It hurts me actually, that's why I took this decision. I am holding few of BTC and I will not look at my wallets too for 2 months. I hope after 2 months when I will go to see bitcoin price, maybe I will scream happily. What about you guys?  Your strategy makes you feel calm and gain you a peace of mind. In doing this you're being out of nervous and panic that cause of the deepest dip of value in the market. And the good thing in doing this is you won't think the idea of panic selling that makes you some losses. For me, I wanted to buy more coins because it's in the low price and I hold it for the meantime and waiting for the right time to sell when the value in the market will rising up again. However, i think that it's better for us to be updated and aware to the flow of the value in the market. Patience and hope may lead us to the way of success. |

Can we expect bitcoin below $50 ?
I think nothing is impossible to happen. It's value will possible to down to $50 or maybe much lower than this or maybe it's possible to reach it's highest value that we're not yet experience. All of this are possible to happen because this system built with a high volatility. But for us, for being one of the investors of btc it is better that we don't expect anything from it and we need is patiently wait and still have faith and hope that sooner or later it will risen up again for us have benefit from it. |

https://www.coindesk.com/bitcoin-breaks-7000-to-50-day-low-amid-market-sell-off/We know that cryptocurrencies are without a doubt changing hands right now, but is it even wise to invest into the crypto economy anymore with the top 20 tokens all showing a 10 to 20 percent sell-off within the last 24 hours? Is this the end, are the days of bull runs over in Crypto? Ever since February we've been struggling to break $11kish and now it's back down, what are we to make of this? As of now the value of coins in crypto market are so miserable because it's continuous dipping down. The highly volatility of it makes us felt nervous and because of it,some of us decided do sell their coins in much lower value. No one can knows when it last but most probably as a investor we need to do some good strategy for us to avoid losses. But in my own speculation Bitcoin and large coins will be recover again and the people are continuously dmanding and patronizing it and by this it could help the system to reach it's fully recovery. |

The trend now regarding bitcoin is that it constantly goes down in every second and every minute. Is this the end of it? Will there be any possibility that its value becomes zero? Or specifically demonetised? Because for me I think 5 to 10 years from now this will happen simply because of the appearance of other alternative coins. What's your opinion about it?
I see no chance of it happening anytime now or in future. Especially when countries and global leaders are showing interest on the technology as well as on the bitcoin itself. I think it is just preparing its ground to take the next dream run. This usually happens before any upcoming growth. That's true for any real world stocks as well. I am sure a lot of small investors are already buying in small numbers, just need the whales back in the market. Yes, I agree to that. Maybe it's possible that it's preparing for it's surprisingly rising up that's why there's a continuous deeply dipping we are experience as of now. My though here is I think the reason why we engaged to this system is just because we are believe and trust to the capability and ability of this system but now I'm just do suspicious to those people here because their prediction and hearsay about btc are so miserable. Those people are not giving importance to this system and making some negative issue or topic that may cause of downing the system and push it to it's end. And even I've heard many negative speculation, my trust and belief to this system are still strong and won't ever last. |

The bitcoin system may consider as a newly technology that really valuable and resourceful. Now a days we do recognized and appreciated the benefits and opportunity that it brings to us. It already changes the many lives of people in regards to financial stability. It's not surprisingly when there are much more benefits and opportunity that this system can bring to the near future.I believe that btc can produce more productive things on it's system that can be use in the future. |

Can you buy a house with BTC? Yes! All you need is a buyer with coins and a seller that will accept them. The value of the transaction is as of the date of the contract, when the coins change hands.
Yes it is possible, most specially when you doing transaction to the people that also engaged to this technology. Not only the house you can buy, you can also buy whatever you wanted just make sure that the seller person or company are applicable to accept bitcoin as a payment. It is much faster and easier if the payment are thru bitcoin. Nothing is impossible in this world. |
