Why is it market manipulation if price goes down and then up... Isn't that what markets do?
Because there are a small handful of whales buying or selling large amounts of bitcoin all at once. They do this to move the market one direction or another with the purpose of inducing fomo or panic selling. Then they cash in on stupid/ignorant investors. So the little guy gets hosed again and again.
Obviously, which is why you should only buy dips and only sell after a run. Whales make money tricking others into panic selling for a loss or tricking them to buy after a pump. Basic market psychology.

So it's been 2 months since we saw the X10 X10 holder who is certain to hold, look for coin to hold, everywhere on the list and target on Mars. Many portals do not hold out early, there is only "potential", "good coin", "pump", "event" etc. And of course, as usual, right now, people are starting to get discouraged and forget about their hold (or if they want to hold on because they are not worth the loss), some beginners hold plan. Fundamentally to ensure a sustained market sustainability, some stocks such as BTG are about to enter the very good range. When the BTC finishes the second bottom of the D3 frame you can refer to the short-term strategy. The safety strategy is still when the cash flow is returned to the official new investment market, regardless of a number (though it is very cheap compared to the peak).

How long do you refill your money?
How long have not seen people who do not know or care about technology or finance to buy BTC?
Personally, I have not been pumping money for quite some time.

Both subjects: old trader class (exhausted) do not pump money, the new layer of chicken has not appeared, so where the capital flow to market growth?

It was a game where the winners were all gone, only a few losers beat each other. Who can make the market return? It's a shark with the ability to pump a dash of hope for a litter trader because the swing is too high, bringing the blue color of the X account to a great way to find new chickens, and the capital of the main shark. When converging all three factors, the market will be excited and thriving again, it is a safe time to play.

For you to swing too high, you can expect it to deepen, deep enough to lose most of the recovery quickly and healthy. If it goes slower then the recovery process can be years, years. However, the market is still small and new, we hope this process will not be too long.

Quoting the sentence in the old post: "Actually can not wait, the longer wait to buy early and soon depressed when the hole." I bet there are a lot of coin you aim for A, B, C, hold hands to wait for a change of life, and now it is half as cheap as you expect. The market always gives us the surprise, take the initiative not to fall into the situation: "Please do not be too happy."

[Common terminology when discussing Blockchain] Updated - 2/2/2018
(This post will be updated continuously based on everyone's contributions.) Note: This is the unofficial definition. People learn more about the material to understand more)

Blockchain
Chain-of-block technology, transactions are grouped into 1 block, blocks are joined to the chain following the block mechanism after saving the key hash of the previous block.

Consensus
Consensus algorithm, which is an algorithm that validates a block.

On-chain
Used to refer to tasks performed on Blockchain

Off-chain
Used to indicate tasks not performed on Blockchain

Cross-chain
Techniques for transferring tokens through different blockchain

Mainchain
Used to refer to the main blockchain, in a multiple blockchain group connected to each other.

Sidechain
Used to refer to the blockchain with a smaller ecosystem connected to the mainchain

Proof Of Work (PoW)
The consensus algorithm among the nodes in Blockchain, the consensus based on the effort (hash, hashing power) of the nodes.

Proof of Stake (PoS)
Synchronization algorithms between nodes in Blockchain, stencil-based relational representations of nodes.

Miner
Excavators, used to refer to computers participating in Blockchain, pack and confirm (Block).

Validator
Often, only the nodes involved create, confirm Block in Blockchain. Quite like Miner. This concept is used in Blockchain using the Proof Of Stake consensus algorithm.

Fork
Only splitting a blockchain into two or more branches, when two or more blocks are in the same block. Fork can be created accidentally, occurring when more than one miner digs a new block at the same time (will only exist temporarily), or deliberately, when the community breaks into two or more groups running the version Software incompatible.

Hard fork
It occurs when the consensus rule is loosened (if the old rule is a subset of the new rule), if all the updates update to the new software, then there will be no split, if there is one. The miner still running the old software will split.

Soft fork
Occurs when the consensus rule is tightened (the new rule is the subset of the old rule), if most of the miner update the new software, there will be no split, if only minor update will split.

Nothing at stake
Only happens when there is hard-fork. Because in PoS you do not have much energy to create a block, so you can create blocks at two chains at the same time.

Long range attack
This is because it does not take much effort to create a block so you can create your own chain, and your chain is longer than the main chain.

Big Numbers Predictions! The first was true for Venezuela!! , when they released CRYPTO last week!

1. At least 1 currency of a country will break down very soon. High probability is Argentina or Venezuela. This leads to the bitcoin in these countries being replaced and leading to a bitcoin rise to over $ 50,000.

2. The orthodox bank began accepting bitcoin, providing bitcoin storage services and related software. Then these banks began to monetize secondary numbers. CME is preparing to do this.

3. The wave destroys other coin. Ninety percent of the new coin will die as the state of the previous dot-com crisis. 5% of the survivors will go up. This will likely happen in the next 4-6 months.

4. The US government secretly collects small coin to conduct transactions with third countries in secret missions. This is happening but will intensify in 2018.

5. China will make its own kind of coin but not bitcoin. The reason is that China wants a new kind of competition against bitcoin and under the control of the government. When China reveals this, the whole world will turn completely into digital money.

6. The basic problem of monetary numbers is that the rising and falling rates are too high. However, at least in 2018, a kind of coin will enter into a steady decline.

7. Most companies will pay freelancers on a payroll, which will lead to tax reforms and less power to the government.

8. True to the way the internet is killing voice over conventional telephone services, the money will kill everything monopolized by the government.

9. Governments will release their own departments to analyze and manage the money. This will make bitcoin and lottery numbers are traded at high prices.

10. There are thousands of kinds of money born, but few will survive long.
Collectibles from popular newspapers! Currently VENEZUALA has released its own money, Does the above 10 have come true?

Sooner or later big players such as Facebook, Google, etc. will join the CryptoCurrency market. This status of Mark Zuckerberg signaled an implicit signal of the race of the world's leading technology corporations.
Mark Zuckerberg recently announced on his personal profile that he wanted to find a way for Facebook to integrate electronic money into his platform.

Facebook's role in our lives may not be the same. Some people use it almost everywhere, update and share their daily activities with friends and family, as well as see what others are doing. Meanwhile, many companies, businesses, newspapers see Facebook as a tool to reach out directly to customers and partners.

Crypto Currency is creating a game that connects players in the online advertising industry together into a Smart Contract - Decentralized solution. Can be with Facebook, Google ... Waiting for welcome 🙂

AND MORE !!

Each time we invest in any Altcoins or ICO projects, I think we MUST CONSIDER CAREFULLY about:
- A technology that adds value to society
- Infrastructure and encoding facilities
- A team of developers and startup entrepreneurs which is building technology and coding
- Which and how widely people use these coins to pay ?
- A decentralized, free, secure and active internet network for these coin

That is the reason I still think: Holding is best way to make maximize profit in long term.

I need other comments about it. I want to learn.
