I don't even think that whales are buying Dogecoin and thereby pushing its price growth. Most likely, this is done by those who succumbed to Elon Musk's tweets. You can only invest in this coin for a short time and you need to be ready to lock in your profit in time, since I also agree that it can fall deeply in price over time.
At the same time, the price effect of the Dogecoin bubble can also last for a long time if the buzz of investors continues. Cryptocurrencies are sometimes very unpredictable. However, one thing is clear: the risk of investing in this coin is now great.

Today, for the first time, we saw the price of ethereum above $ 3,500 and this, apparently, is only the beginning of the triumphal procession of this coin. Apparently, in the coming months, the ethereum price should rise to $ 5,000, especially if the stages of its network renewal are successful.
It is also interesting to observe the growth of capitalization and the level of dominance of this coin in the market. Ethereum's capitalization has already surpassed $ 400 billion, while Bitcoin is stuck at a trillion dollars. A little more and the capitalization of ethereum will reach half of the capitalization of bitcoin. The level of dominance of this coin is also growing. It is now 17.7 percent, while Bitcoin's dominance has dropped to 45.5 percent.

No, in order for a single currency to exist in the world, there should not be many states, all the more so with different political systems and other factors that separate them. A single currency is possible when all states are united into a single superstate, or when they are closely united with a generally recognized single government.
However, decentralized cryptocurrency is not suitable for this role for many reasons. It could be one of the future regional stablecoins of states or the stablecoins of a major state.

In less than two months, ethereum has practically doubled its price, which now stands at over $ 3,300. I also see for the first time the current ratio of dominance of bitcoin (46.8 percent) to ethereum (16.5 percent), which, of course, should have a very positive effect on the altcoin market in the near future.
The Ethereum 2.0 update is only starting to show its first positive results, and the ethereum price is already constantly updating its price highs. So I agree. This is the time to accumulate and hold this coin.

No, the ethereum price will continue to rise. This is just the beginning of the growth of this coin. After real improvements with transaction fees, scaling and others as part of the Ethereum 2.0 update, the price of this coin will only go up. Of course, the growth will not be great if the overall market growth dynamics is negative. However, there are still no objective reasons for this.
It is possible that ethereum could rise to $ 6,000 - $ 8,000 by the end of this year.

I hope that if bitcoin further drops significantly in price, then some potential altcoins this time will still not follow the bitcoin price as strictly as it did in 2018-2020. The cryptocurrency market is changing and this will continue in the future. Therefore, a similar situation is hardly possible. Although, in general, the market falls, and the falls are large and long, there will also be more.

Yes, I totally agree here. States and their governments have a lot of power and great ability to strongly influence cryptocurrency. We have a recent example with ripple. As soon as the SEC filed a lawsuit against the abuse of two executives at Ripple Labs, XRP immediately plummeted in value. This despite the fact that there was no real danger for the circulation of the XRP coin itself, and there is not. What will happen to the price of any cryptocurrency if, for example, the G20 states declare it illegal and establish responsibility for its use? I am confident that the price of any such cryptocurrency will almost immediately drop by more than 90 percent. At their own peril and risk, some will still be able to use it, but this will no longer be its previous use.

Tokens are easy to create. They say it takes about half an hour. However, now there are already more than nine thousand different altcoins and without their usefulness for society, it makes no sense to create additional ones. Now, thousands of altcoins have already become practically useless and unnecessary. Sometimes people put their money into them and thus actually throw them away, because after a while they disappear from the market forever.

One of the most difficult problems in cryptocurrency is making the right decision in time to withdraw funds to fix profits. Since the price movement of cryptocurrency is very bad to predict, we all make mistakes in this and no one will be able to avoid it. Therefore, possible losses should be treated as inevitable costs when working with cryptocurrency and rejoice at even a small profit.

Yes, temporary difficulties in the ethereum network with high transaction fees and low scalability are a good opportunity for cryptocurrencies like BNB to grow. In addition, this growth is well deserved due to the good functional characteristics of this network.
However, ethereum has its own large community, which has been formed over the years. After the upgrade of the ethereum network, this coin will become even more attractive and perhaps then the current popularity of BNB will drop slightly. However, there is still room for good price growth. If this year the cryptocurrency market will retain its growth rate for some time, then it is quite possible that with the current BNB price of $ 631, it could reach one thousand dollars.

I am not at all embarrassed by the current activity of Elon Musk on social networks in his open attitude towards some cryptocurrencies, such as Bitcoin and Dogecoin. In general, it does a good job for cryptocurrency: it advertises cryptocurrency and draws people's attention to it.
Yes, while Dogecoin is temporarily pumping up in price. However, people themselves are responsible for their decisions and actions.
I do not think that at the same time Elon Musk does it because of the desire to make money on it. He seems to be very amused by the reaction of people to his tweets. Let him have fun.

We have more than once come across the arbitrariness of the development team of various projects, which after the bounty campaigns at their own discretion change the order and any conditions of payments to bounty hunters of the stipulated remuneration and already treat this as something inevitable. However, how defenseless are we?

Many of us took part in the bounty companies of the UnitedCrowd project, which is registered in Germany. From the outset, they announced that the reward pool is 12.5 million of their UCT tokens, which is € 250,000, meaning that their token is supposedly valued at $ 0.02. Moreover, the payment will be made to the participants' ether wallets without any KYC checks and other restrictions.
Now, after the end of the bounty on March 31st, they broke their promises. They offer to register on their website and go through KYC there with the provision of their identification documents and selfies with them, the payment of tokens will be made to the personal accounts of the participants on the site and they will be frozen for three months. However, most importantly, due to the fact that their token has grown in price to $ 0.3, they decided not to pay out the number of tokens that is already indicated in the table and want to reduce them by about 20 times.

This is outright deception on the part of the development team. In this regard, some bounty hunters propose to go to the German courts with a lawsuit against UnitedCrowd in connection with the team's unilateral violation of the essential terms of the contract with the participants of the bounty campaigns. Yes, there may not yet be any judicial precedents for this category of cases, but the case looks quite promising due to the obviousness of such violations.

Do you think it's time for bounty hunters to unite and defend their rights in court?

The reasons why participants in bounty campaigns are deceived are different and not everything here depends on them.

Human nature is such that everyone wants material well-being and this is absolutely normal. It can hardly be said that people are now more greedy. Cryptocurrency and the possibility of quick earnings in it attracts primarily the young generation, which does not yet have sufficient material well-being. Apparently, you are just in their environment, and therefore it seems to you that everyone is concerned about cryptocurrency and the opportunities it provides for get rich quick.

It seems to me that with the further increase in the price of bitcoin, it will become more and more difficult for him to do this. After all, the risk of losing invested capital will increase if the price of bitcoin falls. If people see another big drop in the price of bitcoin, as it was in 2018, then they are unlikely to invest in it next time when it rises high in price again.
In addition, the cycles in terms of the depth of the fall and its duration in time will not necessarily repeat even with approximate accuracy. Altcoins are developing very actively now and they will also influence the further movement of the market, despite the state of bitcoin.

It's right. If at least some of the miners remain, they will still mine the same amount of bitcoins as before with a large number of miners. After all, one bitcoin is mined every ten minutes. And the number of miners is no longer important here. It's just that the remaining miners will mine them more often.
In addition, about 18 million bitcoins out of 21 million have already been mined. Even if bitcoin mining stops completely, then only those that have already been mined will go, without the remaining three million.

The price dominance of bitcoin in the cryptocurrency market is still large, so in general, when bitcoin falls, the rest of the altcoins will follow. However, even if you look at the situation in today's market, you can see that the price of bitcoin is now practically standing still or even falling slightly, and ethereum has already exceeded its price record and reaches a price of $ 2800. The top BNB and XRP coins are also doing well. Concurrently, Bitcoin's dominance fell to 48.3 percent, while ethereum rose to 15.3 percent. The situation on the cryptocurrency market will constantly change and it is quite possible that some altcoins will move away from the dominance of bitcoin.

The current problems with high transaction fees on the ethereum network are temporary. These problems may disappear within a few months. Many people understand this, so the ethereum network continues to be in demand. For example, the current price increase for this coin is already about $ 2,800 due to the fact that the European Investment Bank began issuing digital bonds in the form of security tokens on the Ethereum platform in the amount of 100 million euros for two years. In addition, other banks are going to do the same. Therefore, in the future, the ethereum network will expand, and the coin will grow in popularity and price.

Well, in principle, this is true. No matter how the SEC lawsuit against Ripple Labs ends, the court decision will not affect the circulation of this coin. We are only talking about paying or not paying a large amount of fines. The SEC is claiming a $ 1.3 billion fine. Most likely, two managers of this company will have to pay it, to whom the SEC has filed claims of abuse.

To solve the problem with high transaction fees on the ethereum network, we have to wait a few months. During this time, this coin is unlikely to lose its current position and popularity. Moreover, now the whales are very actively buying it and it is now growing well in price. It even shows much better growth rates compared to Bitcoin. Ethereum has set an all-time high again today, rising above $ 2,700. I think that this year we may well be able to see its price of $ 5,000, especially if in October its scalability increases, as planned, 25 times.
