I prefer physical wallet and my reason is simply that I would have it on my phone directly for easy access. What I just need is to save the app on my home screen.

However, both are good ,just that wallet codes should be secured.

If there is going to be any suppression of bitcoin by any altcoin, it won't happen this 2018 defineatly. The reason it won't happen this year is simply that change is hard to accept and thus, always resisted. Even where it would happen subsequently in the future, it won't be a forked coin from bitcoin . Rather, a bitcoin not forked from bitcoin like Bitcoin White .

These two ways of making money are like dissenting angles and thereby, do not converge.

However, bitcoin generates profits more , faster and loses profit easily. These informs my view of being like dissenting angles.

It might not be called a legal tender because it has not been generally accepted but it is used as money, exchanged with money to do i
or transact the things that money is used to do.

In other words, it runs side by side fiat.

I also believe that bitcoin would still be popular not exactly because it is the first to be reckoned with and not because of its high value either but because cryptocurrencies generally are being t
recognized too. So, this will give bitcoin more popularity.

It is obvious that this business of bitcoin is a fluctuating one and highly volatile. Imagine the price of bitcoin last week ($20,000) and dipping to $11,000, then coming back to 15,000. This is highly volatile.

I don't think otherwise too. The price came to $15,500 after hitting $18,900. This is a good dip merging I think. The thing I understand about bitcoin is that, it recovers easily, except there would be another dip to $10,000 .

The possibility of manipution is high as most times humans have the intention to cheat others for selfish reasons but manipulation is minimal with bitcoin.

Basically , I think the increase is about investors buying and holding during the two previous forks and since then , speculation has been that the price would hit the 10,000 stage, which has now been surpassed. Also , awareness is on the high side as there are rush to buy bitcoin. People buy and dont want to release it , this leads to more hype and scarcity which would cause an increase in price .
