As much as possible I'm not letting myself get affected much with the price of bitcoin. I've learned from this before because it's causing me panic when I feel something that I'm missing or fear of seeing the price fall.

I don't want to let myself troubled and worry when the price goes down and I'm avoiding to be depressed.

Once I caught by that feeling, everything's gonna ruin my trading and holding confidence.

Yes, it makes the supply lesser to enforce the demand higher.
Apply the law of supply and demand so if you think that doesn't help the project, it's your opinion and everyone has their own points too.

No need to tell that someday there will be clog in transactions, it's happening today. ETH network has been congested and the same goes for bitcoin.

Why is this happening? there are so many users that has been transacting at the same time and this is inevitable. For a coin that can process a lot of transactions for each second will keep on telling that they are better but once they are crowded, they'll undergo with the same problem.

I'm happy to see that a newbie wants to make his portfolio into long term, this is almost rare today. A newbie that just came in to the market wanted to make things quickly and see their profits overnight.

But, yeah there's but. You haven't bought bitcoin? I know that's quite expensive for someone that just came in but you have to include it and as much as possible give the biggest portion to it.

I've seen some coins on your portfolio that I don't really like, well anyway I hope that you can endure the pain if we aren't out of the bear yet.

Everyone knows that bitcoin has the highest market cap in the cryptoverse.
Can't count all of those crashes but bitcoin isn't $9,200. As of today it's $7,400 and I guess it's starting to have a small dump already.
It will only collapse if everyone will sell during the high and there's no need to worry about it, we've seen it before not only this December-January (2017-2018).
Everyone's speculation is BlackRock.

Then stop investing to those coins and only focus with those coins that are already established.

This isn't really a problem for someone that wants to invest in altcoins. You are only scared that you are going to lose because you're not yet ready. Study more about altcoin and the one that will caught your attention, take time to do your research about it.

Bitcoin can be a the global standard of money but with Ripple, no.

I know there are many ripple holders here and this is why it has been said by this major Japanese bank, oh wait that's a bank which is targeted by XRP.

Don't generalize altcoin as the competitor of bitcoin.

There are many altcoins and you have to be precise on your pick on what you think on what will be the next important one next to bitcoin.

Nothing, most of them are going to be dead soon. Some will survive but only those that are popular.

Not really, if you are living in peers and you're the only one that has it then that can make you feel like a king but I don't know if others are really feeling this way.

In God there's grace but we still have to work hard not for our own country but for ourselves.
This might be the feeling of some that they don't have to work hard anymore because they have bitcoin, no don't think that way unless you have hundreds to thousands of bitcoin and you have a decent source of living.

No.

Why we are have to forget the attention that was being thrown to cryptocurrency? we should focus to it anymore. The more attention that was getting caught by crypto's, blockchain will also be with it. Crypto's are also with blockchain so if any one enthusiasts is very worried about, you don't have to think about blockchain too much. Large companies aren't so blind to see what blockchain really is and what it can contribute to their companies existing system.

Mastercard will make cryptocurrency transaction faster as they say.

They are now stepping in and this only indicates that they are adopting cryptocurrencies. Like what others have saw that many will start using crypto's, mastercard, visa and other the same company are following the same step.

Finally there are good news that are coming out recently. I'm almost exhausted of enduring all the FUDs and bad words that the skeptics has been doing just to turn the side of bitcoin.

Now that there are interesting people that are becoming excited to bitcoin and lately there's another good news that showing their interest of adopting crypto's too.

Who's not going to be excited about bitcoin?

I believe that bitcoin can reach new all time high but $50,000 is just too much for me. I'm not being skeptic here but I just can't feel that it will happen this year.

Maybe next year or two that's very plausible just to be sure of it but if ever that happens for this year, then that's the best thing ever and these experts who are predicting it will gain more popularity and they'll get trust from the newbies who are just speculating.

And to prove that this is correct, take a look at the Coinmarketcap now.

This is a beautiful scenery that every holder wants to see and just because of bitcoin has been pumped today, all of the alts are also green. There are few of them that are struggling and going opposite position but majority of them are healthy and green.

I didn't did a backup check on what is this coin but basically when there's "lending" involve to a coin, most of them are turning into scam.

I'm sure that you know what happened to ETHlend, bitconnect and other the same schemes. If you are interested to this coin, I've warned you about my sentiment about these "lending" coins.

It can be a front for them at the beginning that they didn't introduced that lending but their main entry is coming to this point.

Well that's my POV and I'm really seeing lending coins as scams.

This forum has been the major source of announcements that are also being linked to different social media sites.

But if you want to make sure that you are covering all areas of the web with your project and reaches all of them accurately, just hire someone that works as a "marketing professional".

The one that has experience and is an expert to this area.

Yes you are thinking that the bear days are over but we can't say if it actually ended just like what happened. But still be prepared on whatever the outcome of this good and beautiful charts we've got lately.
That's all we can do at this moment, wishing for the best that the bear days are gone and started to sleep while the bulls are back and now are coming in action. There will be small corrections to come but if its really the bullish trend is there, that won't affect much the prices.

I want to consider that too but the fact that we aren't sure yet if this is really the start of the bullish market but if this really is then that's good.

Crypto's, bitcoin has been unpredictable since then and you may not know on how high it can go. You saw how those bounces made us kept in good faith to bitcoin.

Let's all wish but still rely on the charts.

I have found this.
Bitcoin Is Getting a Big Boost Today From an Investor Who Called Cryptocurrencies 'An Index of Money Laundering'
The title is misleading and it's only about BlackRock.
Just like what everyone else talks about BlackRock that's also what's on my mind.

I wouldn't recall their disappointment, its their choice to panic sell but this can be a lesson for them to learn.
I was quite old but not older than the rest but I've sold before when I was also new to crypto's. I did panic selling many times but I've learned from that mistake.
