Do you mean 60% of cryptocurrencies is held by newbies or 60% of holders of cryptocurrencies are newbies? Whichever way, there is no way that verify that number and no tools with which to arrive at that inference. This post is just an opinion and there are no facts to it.

The most important factor now might be the upcoming bitcoin reward halving which is dated for mid next year. This could have a more than significant impact on the price, in the interval before that time however, some suggest the market would again turn bullish in the coming months and recover some of the lost value.

I totally agree with the statement, the blockchain has huge potential to disrupt the payment sector. With improvements in key areas and launch of more projects to support more transactions and make it more user friendly, blockchain could go mainstream.

Most trades are made by traders buying across various exchanges. This constitutes the trading volume of a currency and also determines the circulation and popularity of a particular currency.
It's importance is it's ability to grow a currency and make it more resistant to manipulations

Hacks and thefts follow every financial technology or system, as far as there is a prospect of acquiring the funds and assets of others.


Most hacks happen over the secondary market mostly centralized exchanges, the chances of a wallet address getting hacked is very low, you can secure it further by using a hardware wallet.

I think the meant to write a guide on how to turn your post into a mega thread and attract multitudes of replies. Majority of mega threads turn out to be spam threads though.
Instead of trying to make your post 'trend' try to keep it on topic and relevant for as long as it is required. Use the 'self moderated' and 'lock topic' options when needed.

Progress would be made when the price consolidates and gets to it's actual value or a close range around which it fluctuates, rather than steady drops and pumps, for this to happen it has to lose its speculative value and be tied to actual products and services rather than fiat.

If you've activated 2FA on your account on exchanges then your accounts should be secured even if your email had been hacked.
This is really a large breach and would lead to loss of lots of personal information if it's true. You can also security your email address using 2FA to keep it protected.

This is an eccentric but efficient way to offload available smerits. And as you've previously merited the posts in question, you are sure it is up to your standards of deserving posts. And depending on how many merits users has racked up in the interval, you can check the growth of the account.

Bitcoin reward halving could spark an increase in the price. Or bakkt and bitcoin ETF which could be coming within the couple of months (if ETF gets approved). Any of these could bring about mass adoption. For sustainable growth, the network has to be able to support increased usage and work efficiently.

Are investors and hodlers ready to use bitcoin as a means of making daily payments, most are only interested in it for the proposed impact on the price ans not for the actual utility.
I predict it would have an effect on tbe price, and if it succeeds in gaining traction it could be a long-term impact.

There has been a steady rise in the market capitalization over the past years, if there is to be a pattern, 2019 should at some point surpass the previous market cap. That is unlikely to happen looking at the current trend, and the market does not follow patterns.
The next Bitcoin halving would significantly affect the market, hopefully we reach a new support level.

For the current market, yes, we could have hit the bottom, the price held up above $3100 amd rose from there upwards.rhe value can of course always fall below any threshold, for the short term, it should stay above $3000, considering mining difficulty.

The US is advancing rapidly in bitcoin adoption ans popularity amidst tight regulations from the government. Government recognising bitcoin appears to be key in gaining the citizens trust.
Citizens of developing countries where the government are indifferent to digital technology are less exposed to it's possibilities.

Any developer who could create a 'killer Bitcoin app' is sure to get revenues from the usage of his/her product. I believe rewards would stimulate actions from the community of developers and attract more innovation.
It would be difficult to attract donations and organize marketing.

Long term hodl is the best strategy now, and can be done without in-depth technical abilities. Knowledge of bitcoin fundamentals would suffice for hodlers. Your prolonged accumulation period suggests you have learnt along the way. Good luck.

Bitcoin total dollar equivalent is currently about $60 billion, although it has reached an all time high of over $200 billion. This is not sufficient to cater for reserves of nations of adopted.
There is the issue of scalability as well. Bitcoin is not yet matured as a currency to support the global financial system, and it doesn't need the dollar to collapse in order to get recognition.

Trading is always difficult, and the possibilities of losing is similar in the bearish and bullish markets. Trading is an art which is learnt, to be sure it's still a gamble and everyone loses at a point, with more experience one would profit more times than not, in any market.

You would not need a separate account. Draw up a sheet or ledger and designate funds to your specific desires and act accordingly. You set aside funds dor cryptocurrency trading and only invest that. You would need to adhere strictly to your plan and be in control of your emotions.

Forex traders also make use of fundamental analysis and how the media affects the actions and sentiments of other traders. It is quite different in cryptocurrency trading with full products which are all different from the other and serves a different purpose.
