If bitcoin fails all altcoins will fail ,if people betrays bitcoin then it must be because of a newer ,better coin but still that can't kill bitcoin because we will still see new investors buying it while some are dumping it ,I guess its far from dying now,would have believe if you said this 4years back

In cryptocurrency space the ends justify the means ,crypto is meant for only the strongs, presently if you don't hodl your coins and you are not a good trader you will lose out on the long run ,don't sell your holding unless you have gain profits ,it doesn't make any sense selling off to lose

Yes I agree crypto is not a get rich quick scheme ,if you are not a strong type you will easily become a victim of depressions ,guilt ,worries ,FOMO too ,the most healthy way to deal with crypto is to lock them away and find other things to do with your time

Damn! It does looks like we have to wait for years before we can see another all time high but I'm focused my faith on the next halving of bitcoin which is 2020 ,I hope we will see another huge spike over 20,000$

Haha! Right about time ,binanace did great ,if this continues hackers won't be able to steal from one exchange and sell on the other ,I think what we lack in cryptocurrency space is having each others back ,I've been hearing news of kidnappers demanding for bitcoin for ransom payments ,they don't know that its trackable ,let's keep scammers and hackers off crypto world and that would build a strong trust

I think we need a report thread/discussion on bitcointalk forum to tackle all this fraudulent acts ,we bounty hunters are the promoters ,if we don't promote for them they will find there ways ,we should all stand together and fight this scammers for good

2018 alone has showed that devs and bounty managers takes bounty hunters for granted after helping them spreading words abouth there projects ,its so unfair ,I'm happy that bounty hunters are now united they will find it difficult to cheat or do anyhow with us now

Scam projects will always exist and newbies that know nothing about crypto will always be victims ,the only way you can detect a good project is doing your own research ,e.g roadmap,white paper ,chat with the dev and know how determined the teams are willing to go about the project and one more thing, try to know what the project is trying to solve

I feel like 2019 will be the last year ICOs will see the light of the day ,they are not performing any better but worse  the scam rate is so alarming compare to 2016/2017 which is making cryptocurrency lose face ,the trust issue is why we don't see huge investors anymore ,I fear what to come now

Stable coins are the way to store money because they keep the value intacts  ,coins like usdt usdc among others ,its unwise to use bitcoin and other altcoins to store money as they will surely continue to lose value for some times ,things are really not going has we hoped for this year

No one know what the outcome of this fork would bring ,all we can do now is speculate I'm just hoping things will turn out well for ethereum ,I'm waiting patiently till Jan 16

I just hope you are right, bitcoin cash has done a lot of damages already and right now I'm in no support of more future hardforks ,they seem to be ruining everything, bitcoin will remain the best no matter what.

I don't understand ICOs anymore ,I can see is always about the money ,funds,if you select a ICO to invest in you have to start worrying ad praying they meet there softcap and hardcap ,that's the only way they can stay around ,this is so wrong I think security tokens will be better

Digital currency will find its way out of this mess on the long run I believe ,what's the use of our smartphones if we can't process payments with crypto in a coffee shop or car shopping ,digital owns the future its a matter of time ,the future technology will always preferable digital currency

Good point, I'm sure we have small and big business men among us on here ,even company owners either small or big ,we have the power in our palm to make not only bitcoin be useful as means of payment

They are risky than the top 100 but if you do your research right you will see some very good young projects that haven't make it to top 100 yet due to still very new and I can assure you that when they start taking up there roadmap they will make it to top 100 ,I actually have few coins that are not among the top 100

I think staking coins are heading to the same path as the POW coins too ,i haven't stake any but I heard its not worth the hassles even masternodes that I was still looking forward to setup but as a miner I will will choose prove of work over prove of stakes anyday

I believe things will change in 2019 and I'm sure things like correction and regulations will take place this year as well and we might be lucky to see ETF been approved so we will see huge price surge once again

That's a large portfolio you got yourself ,with patience and endurance things will surely go as expected ,2019 will be better but bullrun might not come too soon as expected by many

Let's not forget the word' decentralization' ,satoshi makes the right move going anonymous, its just that trust issues still haunt cryptocurrency till date and I as an investor I always prefer to go for coins with dev identity because for the sake of decentralized projects scammers run away easily
