This act of "influences" looking down on the market is very unhealthy to the rest of the community because by spreading these concepts people especially the newbies get worried and start selling and would only help it continue down the dip allay.
I agree with your reply. Talking the market down especially by 'celeb' figures only makes the situation of the market worse because negativity spreads easily and it will start getting other people worried.

In my opinion, that's a scam straight up and I hope that people targeted by those types of messages consult with other before they provide them with the most important details because this just sounds too good to be true, and when that happens its a big, big scam.

No; I don’t think it’s good time to invest in ETC now. The current is in a downturn at this moment. And most people are not investing on it. It will be a risky investment if you invest there now! Wait till the market becomes stable.
Yes, this holds true for any other types of short term money making strategies such as day trading. The market its too volatile and the prices can drop and rise at any moment so its very risky investing right now, with coin buying exceptions though.

In my opinion, if you always keep an eye on CoinMarketCap then you will understand which one is better for you. Because every time the coins are being added to the market, so it is very difficult to specify which one is better for you. Because there are different price coins. However, in fact, a coin at CoinMarketCap is actually with its details that a coin can be found at any exchange, how to grow up in 24 hours, how much volume is being sold, these information is easily available. So it will be easy for you.
I agree with you that Coinmarketcap is a main source to get information on coins and its also among the best ones. But to keep this post relevant to your question, in my opinion now is difficult to say which coin is really good because of the market down though BTC or ETH have always been top coins.

I believe that this is a kind of manipulation, which is very beneficial to someone. At least for investors and holders to sell their coins at an attractive price
I don't think anybody knows the real reason because the movement of the market is influenced by all different factors and yes it could have been caused by the news, or exchanges or people just selling and panicking.

I agree with you, do not have anything that makes us too panic. It will be okay if we keep it. We should believe what bitcoin has done in the past few years and wait for prices to be able to go higher.
Its hard not to worry but many people remain still hopeful in the power of Bitcoin and maintain their holding positions. I just hope this trend upturns out soon because we all need a little positivism.

Whats the point of bitcoin anyway? there's no way a normal person will be able to use it on a daily basis! its not gold (to store for value)...
if one day everyone drops bitcoin, bitcoin will no longer be valuable, bitcoin will only become garbage. bitcoin will only be a history of the type of digital currency and crypto type of currency I agree with the above because its the community that gives Bitcoin its value but in order for that to happen there would have to be a lot of investors dropping it at once.

what is going to be the cheapest cryptocurrency to invest at present and get double future return from it? ![Grin](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/grin.gif) Digibyte, Redcoin, pinkcoin and bytecoin. Digibyte is good for investment purpose as it has strong background. Redcoin is also good but on average. Pinkcoin and bytecoin are below average. I would recommend you to invest in digibyte as it was pumped in 2017. I think if we where to know for sure which coin you could buy for cheap now and good investment in the future, the people speculating or thinking they know for sure won't probably post it here.

Being content with what one has its never been the most attractive trait of human nature. As such, its quite difficult to be stress free especially when the crypto investments aren't looking good, worrying about whether you'll make it or not is normal.

I do not think that bear market is good for us because the number of people selling will only make it worse and I'm afraid that this scale offsets any new investors into the market.

What is the nature of the forum? Is the quality post the most important? In my opinion, if a forum is full of quality posts, then it becomes a scientific journal. The forum I like is an easy discussion environment.
I don't think bitcointalk is lost. Still it is one of the best Bitcoin forum with quality posts and with zero spamming. I very much agree with the reply from above. Bitcointalk is still the best forum with many quality posts and in no way its anything close to a scientific journal. It just has the right balance, I think which is why in my opinion its the best crypto forum.

nowadays there are so many altcoins in circulation, if we look at coinmarketcap, there are already thousands of altcoins, I want to ask you all, what are the best 3 altcoins in 2018?
Yes, there are a lot of coins making the decision even harder. However, in my opinion the top three altcoins in 2018 are Ethererum without a doubt, Neo and Litecoin.

I think with more people accepting Bitcoin around the world the price of Bitcoin will stay within the volatility zone because of the mass selling from the new investors especially, now when we see a reduction in the price of Bitcoin. Having said this I think the price of BTC is not no way near its real value as I believe this to be >8.5k.

People were disappointed of the bearish market since January and they are trying to cash out and make money on the growing bitcoin, so it makes alts to drop even more.
There is that as well as the fact that Bitcoin price had fallen by more than 5% which would also cause the altcoins to drop down in value. To be honest I'm not surprised because altcoins follow into the steps of the Bitcoin trend but what I'm not sure about why that's happening to be honest.

The stock markets have been there for decades whereas Bitcoin first appeared in 2008. The stock markets are regulated by governments, therefore being more stable and earning more trust from investors. Bitcoin, in contrast, has in its infancy stage without regulations or legal grounds from financial authorities. The price of Bitcoin, thus, is much more volatile and its market cap is more highly variable.
I agree with this. The stock market is fully regulated and less volatile with prices controlled by political moves while this is not the case for Bitcoin. At the same time, they're both risky to invest but overall to me Bitcoin brings better rewards.

I only have first hand experience with trading. it's been up and down but I'm ahead. Everything I have heard about mining has been that its a loosing proposition. I would love to make my money mining over trading if possible. Trading is high stress.
Both take a certain level of skill and dependency and I think while its easier to do trading, mining would be preferred but is less practiced because of the hardware and energy costs.

What I do is to hold my coins and tokens to a much safer wallet like MyEtherWallet. You have also an option to trade your coins and tokens to gain profit, it's all up to you what you want to do with your coins and tokens for good.
There are many ways to keep your coins safe as many people already have mentioned. One thing for sure is too never leave your money on exchanges as these can easily get hacked.

There are many opportunities to invest bitcoin in but these must be weighted carefully and cautiously. One such opportunity, for me is buying more altcoins like ETH but also ICO.

You're right, and holding a coin is still the effective strategy for gaining profits in long term. Holding coins is very effective during market downtrend when their prices goes down and all you have to do is be patience wait for their price to go up again. Their price could go down further but if these coins you are holding are known to be potential then you don't have to worry because they will recover soon.
Holding your coins is the best thing you can do right now while the market prices are still dropping in order to avoid losing your investments because the market prices are volatile. Yes, I very much agree with the above. Holding is what we must do even if at times it seems frustrating but in the end it will all be worth it because then the profit will sure be good.

It has survived already and has come to stay and also given birth to a whole lot of coins and more and still springing up everyday.
Yes, with Bitcoin being the mother of coins it sure is to stay with us for a long time and I think the future will reflect the use and value of Bitcoin.
