The dollar value of a coin shouldn't matter. Marketcap is a bigger consideration than dollar value and mostly how well it will perform against other cryptocurrencies. There is a projet I like called Cashaa that hovers around the 1 cent value. It has a marketcap under 10m and is similar to omisego. It aims to bank the unbanked and recently started offering such services after acquiring their banking licenses.

That seems like a terrible requirement to add. Many people don't hold 20+ coins and why should they? Even if they do the majority wouldn't have them all in one wallet for security reasons.s

I haven't even heard of WAU which makes me think there are probably other coins I haven't heard of that have performed better or just as well. Of the major coins I don't think there are any. There are very few that are even in the green for this year but that's to be expected. What is WAU's marketcap?

With Bakkt and ETFs on the horizon as well as many other unforeseen avenues we could see a big amount of institutional money entering BTC, although I do think if they're planning to accumulate a lot of it will be done OTC so as not to cause a big price increase overnight.

Any coin is going to struggle to moin in this market. Even on major announcements low cap coins just seem to pump 50-100% in a day or less and then return to near their previous price within the following days.

Do you think that 2019 will be a good year for Altcoins ? and if yes which of them will performance the most ?
There hopefully won't be many more years which are good for altcoins in general. The market needs to shed the thousands of shit coins and be focused on the handful of projects with true promise. There's no reason why shitcoins should be doing 10x or more like we saw throughout the last bull market.

In a bullish market we might have seen it happen, ETH quickly rose from sub $100 to over $1000 without any major upgrades. But in this market it's hard for any coin to experience real growth. Even coins with major announcements seem to experience growth only to have it wiped out in the next sell off.
I was very surprised if in such a close time the market could grow quickly. but I also expected that to happen. whether it's next month or throughout the next year, I will wait for the market to grow very well again. The recent growth we had has almost all disappeared already, it was a normal reaction to a long period of selling. The price is now finding a narrower range to sit within where it will likely remain for some time. I suspect we could remain between 3k and 4.5k for most of 2019.

ETH isn't dead, nor are ICOs. ETH is still one of the most used cryptocurrencies, it will take a lot to knock it from its perch. ICOs are in dire straits but they'll return, they're really just a way of raising money, there's no reason for them to be dead. Wait till the market recovers and we'll see projects raising absurd amounts of money again.
Here's my 4 words.
Crypto bubble burst, hodl.

I do not know why the Binance adds a new trading pairs for a ripple, but this will obviously lead to an increase of the price of XRP. I do not believe in the ripple itself but you can buy it just to take some profit
ripple trading pairs on binance will increase the trading volume of ripple,, but not the price,, because price will increase if a demands coming,, somebody could correct me if i'm wrong  Yes and no, I guess. Having Ripple as a base trading pair can also mean that people will buy XRP to trade on Binance, especially if they want to hold on to BTC and ETH, which a lot of people will want to do now. At the same time, XRP volume trading means there's more XRP earnings for Binance in terms of commission. More available XRP to sell and at more competitive rates = more demand? Hard to tell with Ripple! It's still going to generate demand for ripple. People will buy ripple to trade alt-coins or they'll use it as a hedge, some of these people will then sit and forget about their XRP and it is then out of the supply at that moment in time, therefore it influences the price.

now ETH have good movements, 100% grows in 5 day. and price is 160$. and ETH have fork on 7 080 000 block. what you think about prices after fork. becouse after fork, new ethereums will only 2 in 1 block. and i think in future will hard to earn eth.
ETH price is likely going to see an increase but going up towards $800 will require the market to change dramatically. It's not a low cap coin that can pump on major news by 500%. That's too much money to flow in to the market so it can't happen. Yea, I also think the same way. ETH is too big to rise that much in such a short time. Look at Waves for example. It had quite some hype in the last weeks and did a x4-5, but it might have seen its max already. However, it is quite a bit smaller than ETH, so we ll need lots of money to pump ETH that much In a bullish market we might have seen it happen, ETH quickly rose from sub $100 to over $1000 without any major upgrades. But in this market it's hard for any coin to experience real growth. Even coins with major announcements seem to experience growth only to have it wiped out in the next sell off.

I appreciate having further options than just BTC and ETH, it can allow the market to be more free from dependence on their success. It's highly likely this will benefit XRP price given that Binance is the biggest exchange and there could possibly be a lot more through traffic in XRP

Crypto has probably performed all other assets every year since its incubation but that doesn't mean people will suddenly transition to crypto. It is a different type of asset with different allures and different risks involved, some will be better suited to crypto and some to assets like stocks or real estate.

Folks, what a terrible year 2018 has been so far. I invested around 60K and now left with 5K. I did terrible mistakes and I hope there would be a turnaround sometime next year or so. Any suggestions?
Without knowing your mistakes it's hard to say. You should invest in some solid and well reputed coins and do not for one second consider chasing your losses. Forget that you lost 55k and just pretend you started with 5k. That will help you to make sound and sensible decisions.

for everyone that invested when it dropped to 83$ kudos because you made the right move.
Isn't hindsight a wonderful thing. I have to agree that ETH shouldn't be evaluated on its price. Adoption wise it's the king for smart-contracts. I am dissapointed still with the amount of dapps that ETH has, I hoped it would be more by now.

Now as the market looks more optimistic and with all the news of some of the coins going up substantially it's easier to forget, that most of them underperformed in terms of the forecasts that were made previously. Iota is up 67 percent, stratis 108 percent, and bitcoin cash 150 percent. It’s an impressive recovery, but it’s certainly not a reversal. Back in January, “expert” traders were throwing out wildly ambitious end of year targets that, amidst full bull market hysteria, may not have seemed that outlandish at the time. So, what is ypur opinion on 2018's altc performance?
Altcoin performance should not be evaluated on price but on adoption. In that regard they're also largely failing. No coins had any major breakthroughs, there were some partnerships with large firms but no concrete information on how that would mean their coins would be used. Price is secondary to adoption because it follows it. If coins start having real world uses and adoption then their price will sky-rocket naturally instead of purely because of speculation.

stop living in your head ,its wrong it can easily make you choose wrongly and flamed up the greediness in you,proceed with caution always All of your decisions will have to be made with your head but the important thing is to make thoroughly thought out decisions and then to stick with them to a large extent. If you let every price movement get to you then your mental health will suffer and trading will feel like a chore. It should be fun, exciting and rewarding.

Bitcoin (BTC) is looking increasingly bullish on a key technical chart following its strong move above $4,000. https://www.coindesk.com/this-price-chart-indicates-bitcoins-bulls-are-back-in-businessi believe, when the price of bitcoin rising, others crypto will rising too,, be ready everyone, choose the right cryptocurrencies now, so, you don't miss the bull train  i bet ethereum, ADA, EOS and waves will be huge in 2019, what about you ? I'm very skeptical of this recovery, something doesn't feel right with it. Further lows to come in early 2019 I think. As for your last line, all 4 of those can't have huge years because they're all competitors. 1 will be triumphant or none of them.

I had seen the best green today, from 3K to 3.7 price of BTC market is moving up as well with the altcoins. Will the bull ready to run? Or trying to give signs that it is already ripe to go up? What is your thought?
Even if this is the beginning of what will be a transition to a bullish market, it's not going to be without some hiccups, there will still be big price drops occurring from time to time and so it's not a simple case of put in money and ride out the wave to the top. Well said, it would be a foolish think to thing the next Bitcoin growth would be a linear growth. To be sincere it is a good feeling seen green allover the space because the feeling and the much awaited recovery seems to have begin, for me if we go above $4k and sustain this I think we have seen the worst and expect the price to do a steady growth until the hype of halving kicks in The strange thing is that we have not had a long period of stability near the bottom. Bitcoin's previous crashes had long periods of stability around the bottom. I would expect the same thing to happen here which might mean being stuck in the $3k-$4k range for the next 6 months to 1 year.

yesterday and today I saw all altcoins rising. is this the beginning of the recovery market? if I buy now whether it's good or I have to wait until it's really safe.
give me your opinion, which one should I do.
You can never be sure if the market is safe, cryptocurrency is one of the riskiest possible investments that there is. You need to understand this risk and only risk what you can afford to lose. Given your adversity to risk I would wait until there is a stronger bullish signal. For me there is nothing to worry even you invest now. Market making the change. I do not want to wait for the start to hold invest but invest now while waiting because for sure the market will recover. It is good to have something while waiting for you not to regret for losing opportunity to buy at cheapest. I literally just said that you can never be sure if the market is safe. There is no certainty in life. Even if you are the biggest bull for BTC you should never be naive enough to think that it is a certainty that it will succeed because its success is not completely within your control.
