Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What to expect from crypto in 2019?

I think it's important to seperate the "what to expect from crypto" and "what to expect from my investments", seemingly many put an equal sign between those two nowadays. overall the future of crypto is very bright, but yet we're in a quite young stage - even in january the total market cap of every single coin together was similar to what a singular company like Apple's marketcap is today. That's remarkable considering how many actually genuinely cutting edge projects are being built using blockchain!
so, I think we can expect great news during the year, but will people be ready to flock back to crypto? that's a whole other question, and considering how many people are still down 90% of their january investments, and how that generally market cycles are close to 10 years(although crypto is generally perceived to be faster); it might either way be a bit early to start another bullrun this year.

apart from that, are you sure you aren't clicking the windows key + space? it toggles between languages (usually it's english + install language I think)

you've got 5 links in your signature, does none of them fit? what's wrong with them? I mostly use coinbase since it's so simple and instant, kraken is good (but I think only Europe) and takes a few days for money to move.

If any exchange have something bad happens to me, this shows that it is not worthy of my trust. Once I withdraw, I will never go there again. Exchanges that has been blacklisted by me:(These are my personal views, others may not think so) FatBTC:No withdrawal channel after the token is removed. Liqui:Change deposit address many times. stocks: Withdraw fee too high. it is very very high. yobit: Too many scam coins,and service attitude is very bad. FCoin: Price manipulation, liar. CoinBene:Too many MLM coins, and some of which are their own.
For the beginners, 3 points of advice. 1. Deposit security is always the first,So choose only those exchanges with good reputation, such as binance,Huobi. At least they won't swindle your money. 2. Be cautious about unfamiliar exchanges,especially for exchanges that you have not heard of, if you want to deposit, please be sure to deposit a small amount first. 3. Before depositing, it is important to check whether the address is accurate. If it is an ERC20 token, you need to check whether the contract address are consistent. I used to deposit the same name token. Unfortunately, they are different tokens, so my token is lost.
any reason why you'd go with those listed from you? Huobi as an example is one of the largest exchanges, and lists almost as many coins as Binance. and is cheaper than Binance (and Liqui for that matter) why not stick with the big exchanges?

Considering the relatively small market cap of BTC, and crypto as a whole, and the natural volatility - I think it's safe to say there's definitely a group who's moving the market however they want to. I mean, it's not a secret it's happening in general?
What about all the other 'groups' they just sit there and wait their turn? The idea is silly. It's a free for all and an ever changing one. One entity may initiate a move. There's no way they can retain full control of it until it reaches some predetermined conclusion that suits only them. Well, other groups doesn't have to wait, it's more pretty obvious that very rich people can easily move the market. isn't people saying 10% of the market cap is actual amount of money that has gone into crypto? do you relaly believe noone is moving the market whichever way they please? Bitmex seems capable of moving the market to liquidate as many people as possible. It'd be naive to assume that the market is free I think.

is there an agenda in the article to make people scared of crypto? crypto gets so much negative attention about things that are already happening for fiat! paypal accounts are hacked, various website accounts are hacked and sold, email adresses etc, naturally people will try to steal crypto just as the same people would try to steal bank accounts.

I've not read what you are talking about but I do like to read a lot on this subject and I personally think it's the case for numerous reasons, however this is not the first time Europe has been "under attack" in one way or another, but isn't it the first time the population itself is the cause? of course those who disagree with me will say no since they don't find Europe to be in decline to begin with.
indeed it's likely so that all civilizations has a "limited time", which can be seen with all civilizations in history so far! but if this is the time or not is uncertain.

Hi, friends! There is a question: the assets of cryptocurrency owners are oftenattacked by hackers. What method of protection haveyou chosen? What are your most reliable ways and wallets for storing coins?
all the wallets that I have for storing all my coins using a private key and using telephone and email number verification, this step is strong enough for the wallet security factor phone and email verification? so on some exchange or wallet site? then it's not entirely in your hands, that's not the safest choice to rely on a third party! on topic it's more difficult to secure oneself, but once secured it's far more safe than other things. here is some tips: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3576100
