No doubt Eth is one of the highly potential coins. Eth has and still having its own fair share of the bear market. I think it will be a big mistaake to write Eth off now.

The future is very obsured. Apparently no one saw Btc would rise as higher as happened last year and same might be happening this year too. The market does not look promising and there seems to be no specific signs but just hold on for little while.

Ripple has not shown us much. It is struggling to cross 1 dollor which seems to have become a barrier to it. Litecoin is yet to impress me though but I will choose litecoin over ripple

Hodl has become the commonest word in crypto world such that as soon as one enters he learns to hodl first. Personally, I do hodl to increase my profit and I believe many also do same for the same reason.

The cause of your problem is that you had unrealistic expectation as you entered the market. Moreover, greediness brought you in. I think you can save yourself the next time by taking time to educate yourself anutime you wish to invest in anything ever again.

I must admit, your post carries huge sense. It calls for unity as people with a common believe and goal. We definitely give the governments and anti crypto individuals the chance to condemn what we have if we keep scaming each other.

Change never comes with ease especially when it has the potential to disrupt an already existing services. I believe in everything, some group of people will have to take the lead and serve as a pilot. With time many of these countries will come to know Btc worth and will begin to draw in.

Bitcoin is a digital currency and cashless society will only create a favourable grounds for Btc to flourish. Maybe people will get more reasons to get into crypto in a cashless society

No one can accurately predict the future of btc. We can only predict based on certain indicators but that does not guarantee that, that exactly will be th case. We may be surprised to see a rise even more higher than what happens ffor the previous year.

I personally don't know why we should be concerned because getting concerned does not guarantee a bounce bcak. WE can only educate ourselves more and perehaps get more reasons to trust that Btc will recover.

Knolwledge has been the key in everything and cryptocurrency is no exception. I have said that there are a lot of things one needs to know in crypto before he can successfully navigate around.

This is a good news but it is aways right to provide links to the source of ssuch information. Anyway, it is absolutely good to btc and like has been said, we are gradually moving towards btc becoming mainstream.

It is fine with me because, new coins keep sprouting and there need for more exchanges is equally important. I think it will generate competition among exchanges and this might lead to a more flexible rules on these exchanges.

I don't think people have reported they have lost confidence in Btc. If no one even have confidence in Btc, they wouldn't be buying and selling. No one would be here either.

It is not about they being acquainted with fiat. It is about about the approach you employ to do this. explaining it from the technical point of view only complicates issues. just be simple about it and they will be fine.

Currently, more than 3/4 of the worls's population are on social media. we, in our own small way, can help enlighten people theough our social media platforms. Most of the negative views about crypto are spreadf through this same media and so we can also use that to turn it to our advantage.

I strongly disagree with this. No matter how secured we say Btc is, it cannot be too safe than banking. Have you considered the numerous hacking incidences. The least mistake you make to let your private key out, the end for you. We can even misplaced our private keys and I have seen several threads asking how to recover private keys.

It was to be expected because several ICOs lack real life applications. Suddenly enough, most of this year ICOs will folow this same bad trend. However, several others are built on good ideas and can hence stand the test of time.

There are several ways through which you  can earn free tokens. I will recommend you participate in bounty campaigns. That is signature, facebook, twiter and any other you are comfortable with.

I dont think he knew the worth of it. If he really did, he wouldnt lose that at any cause. He would  have backed up. Anyway, sorry buddy, I don§t think there is a way out.
