I honestly can't believe people are still doing predictions on bitcoin prices. Have we not learned a thing about bitcoin on this 10 year journey we had. We are talking about bitcoin here. Not some stock or forex leverage deal we all see. This is bitcoin, it can be $2k tomorrow or $25k, no one will know what bitcoin price can be in the future, it is not something we can foresee this is nothing to do with charts, nothing to do with trends, no news, just pure hype.

But, I do read on different journals in internet but all are predicting about something unbelievable price levels for bitcoin prices in coming years. In short term it may not surprise us but in coming years we will definitely have more exciting years which may outplay the year 2017 which is being considered as one of the best year for bitcoin markets. 

I think it is a great news for all of so we can have some breathing room yet it is not entirely enough. We need bitcoin to stay up for a while and we need more money get into the altcoins. Because altcoin prices are still tied up with bitcoins for having some value on its own hence one stable price will heavily impact other.

Unless it stays up a bit more, at least until altcoins rise as well, than we can't call this a growth, its just correction. If bitcoin stays up or keeps going up than we can talk about how it is going on a bull run, until that happens lets wait and test the waters before we get excited.

This is exactly the reason why I do not put all my eggs in one basket. Putting one million dollars in any exchange is really risky, there is no way knowing if they will steal it like what happened here or not. If I had one million dollars to actually trade, I would probably put them in like 10 different exchange websites and even save some aside in a ledger or something and do what I do very slowly with very little amounts while keeping my coins safe in my ledger.

Exchange websites are shady as hell but also lets give them the benefit of the doubt when it first happens because they may think you are stealing from yourself, they need to make sure its really you. However this one goes way beyond that so its valid.

At this point, that HODL idea is something that I have passed the stage. I fell for it throughout last year and instead of taking the best chance to at least make do with the huge bull runs in the market, I kept holding, when I could have sold during the bull run and buy more now at the dips comfortably and then hold for the next bull run again. This compelled me to learn and start practicing long term trading. HODLING is good but for those who simply cannot get the trading knowledge.

Day trading is good when we are in one confirmed trend. But, now a days market simply switches to different trends hence holding tightly may safe-guard us from unnecessary risk taking options.

In the long term, there is no one will panic since the value is still there and the value growing based on real demand as a result of usage is what is going to make it a whole lot awesome anyway as the price in the long term will get sustainable and not just some fake demand from FOMO or speculation.

When bitcoin market is falling, I guess we meed to look at some alt projects as they will do great and some of them with no product will actually get thrown down the bin eventually, but one thing I am sure certain of is that bitcoin will thrive and even though we get to have short term corrections like this that could last up to a year or more than, which is possible, it does not mean it is the end.

Impatience is always going to make anyone miss out. Knowledge is the main thing everyone needs to make certain decision in this market most especially due to the huge risk. Have a strategy, know what you are doing, consider the profit and loss ratio, and take advantage of every opportunity and so on. All these cannot be done without having a good understanding of how your investment space should be utilized for maximum profit.

Easy money is possible but it cannot be instant. I mean, bitcoin may get very good returns which could be unmatched with any other investment's ROI still we need to be patient so that we may harvest the maximum.

Experience is the best teacher only if you have learned first. If you want to bank on experience first and skipping the learning path, then you are really going to understand that experience you are looking for will make you screw yourself over. You get experience by practicing what you have learned, which means without learning, do not think you can just jump into an en exchange and start doing your thing thinking experience will help you all the way.

After experience, we must develop the habit of reciting our past incidents so that, we may make use of our experience. Not repeating the same mistake must be a very good practice which is possible only through above processes.

Yeah this is amazing news. Like we had these kinds of pumps before and we all expected another fall from bitcoin yet it just didn't. I am amazed and kinda worrying if it will actually stay like this. If bitcoin price stays a bit more like this, I can see it going really really high, like breaking ATH levels of high, it all depends on when the rush will come or not. If it goes down tomorrow I wouldn't be surprised though.

Bitcoin is already being considered as a strong platform and falling down up to $5800 did not make it weaker. But the rising prices right now started attracted lots of new investors and adopters which is the prime thing I am expecting to happen as these are the only things which will make this platform more stronger and consistent.

It is different which is nice for them. I do not trust coins that are just copy cats of other coins. Or if they do not evolve and add something better. Monero is not like that, monero has the secrety stuff and anon type thing with it. I do not use it nor buy it but I understand why it can be wanted.

As long as it offers something MORE for people rather than another copy cat coin, I feel like it is a good investment. I have been watching it in plonoiex since 2015, it is performing like a charm with top volumes. Currently prices are coming down to 15 mBTC for those who are all looking to get into.

Butt one thing is that for those who are smart seeing some of these valuable projects being undervalued, it would be a big time for them to be investing in them as fast as possible because when the whole market starts recovering, the chances of them flying pretty fast to their ICO level price is pretty certain and without doubt that alone is some huge profit already for how much some of these tokens have bottomed so low.

Unfortunately few ICOs will never get bumped as the devs intentionally started such a venture just to eat our money. If you have selected your ICOs very carefully then you may go for opting to wait for some months so that you may get good returns for your investments.

The difference between melo in nuggets, melo in knicks and melo in okc with melo in rockets is that melo now knows he is not the superstar he is. Yes he wants to be a starter, who wouldn't I want to be a starter in NBA too.

However I can't even be the 12th guy that sent to g-league yet melo can put his foot down and ask to be a starter and he can get that. About the difference melo back in those teams were a scoring threat, up until he was traded to OKC he believed he was the scoring number one option. This time he knows cp3 and harden is the real deal and he is not the dude at this team. He kinda realized that in okc but also had trouble believing it, it takes time. I think it will be a lot better this year with Diantoni coaching him again.

I still can't believe ronaldo went to juventus but mbappe went to PSG. I was fully expecting real madrid to grab mbappe so they can replace ronaldo with a young superstar. Dude beasted at world cup for his country and won the cup, that combining with the people he went against on his league, even tho he is a little kid he gained super experience in short span of time.
Just like Luka Doncic in basketball. Monaco basically made like 250 million with just 3 transfers, mbappe+lemar+fabinho totals at something like 240 million or so. Incredible.

I am not ready to believe into any website to filter out scammers. In the past, I have experienced with lots of review and rating sites which had begun honestly but over the time, most of them had turned as a paid review system. The highly paying costumer get listed at the top with ranked number or rated as the best one.

But, when considering a open discussion along with experienced member, such a paid tricks will get eliminated easily. That is the reason I believe only with this forum. Here we have many veteran people who love to share their experience. If we listen to then then we can easily avoid scams.

No. Must be unique. Also all unique things do not need to be great.
Still, bitcoin must be a great invention. Probably you are missing out the very big thing of crypto world : decentralization. In my understanding, this decentralization alone making all the cryptos as a great invention and as per my knowledge no other things have arrived with decentralization before.

If OP is trying to innovate new methodologies for promoting bitcoin for making more people to know about it and its advantages then probably we are slowly moving in the direction. Definitely we need more full time start-ups to make bitcoin famous but unfortunately we are not having enough resources for making bitcoin intensely promoted.

So far not so much. Last year the prices were lower so no matter what happens if you invested in 2017 aside from the last two months, than you are in for a luck. However if you invested during the bull rush at the last two months than you may need to wait a bit more. The percentage that gets up and down is so much more volatile this year rather than last year. Last year it was low and it was closer to days daily changes for a whole year except the last two months.

If we get a huge bull rush this year like last years and go beyond $20k than we can call 2018 better, if not than 2017 was better.

Not surprised. Most of the speculation on this thread as some people forecast what they technically do not even see possible is usually based on their own emotions and how they feel at that particular point in time. For now though, we are in a downtrend and the possibility of still going further downward is still there, and the only thing we can have is patience, which to me should be patience in buying the dips.

No one knows what will be happening eventually. But the way I am seeing things so far, we might as well just assume that bitcoin would be doing anything it pleases. $25k though would actually be a very good one if we peradventure get to see it by the end of the year at all. It is time to buckle up though and rather than trying to focus on the hard possibilities, I guess we should be looking forward to the buying of the dips.

We always talk about how bitcoin may go up or may go down and we try to ask if it will do this or that but we never learn. Bitcoin will do whatever it wants and no one and I mean NO ONE will ever know what it will do. We work on our trading only based on support and resistance levels which means if it is not yet into resistance zone then you may go for buying.

Just a week ago people were asking if bitcoin will go back down to $5800 because it hit $6300 levels from $6800 levels. Today it is over $7.4k. No way we can ever estimate what bitcoin can do. By end of this month bitcoin can be $6k or $10k, yet no one will ever know.

These topics are amazing! I love them. Back like two weeks ago there was bunch of topics like "bitcoin will be $2k by the end of world cup" or "bitcoin is going to $3k" or what not. Today when I look at the topics its mostly like when bitcoin will reach $10k, it means bull market is here and people are once again hopeful that the price will go up instead of sad that bitcoin
price will go down. That shows the price is hopefully going up since people want it to be that way.

As per moving average of 100 days, we may get into $9500 to $10200 region by first week of August. It may happen when the market shows continuous bull run without any major corrections due to negative news.

Like experts do say; the higher the risk - the higher the profit. However like I always say, the more the knowledge you have to reduce the risk by taking good decisions, the better for you. Crypto market is relatively new and lots of potentials yet to unfold hence risking here must be very much similar to buying coca cola's share in 1970s.

It is one thing to want to take high risk for the best of the profit, and it is another thing to foolishly take those risks without any knowledge to be able to make quality decisions and get the best from it. A lot people do this most especially in the crypto world which is one of the reasons why they complain a whole lot.

It is a great opportunity, but at the same time, there is a huge need for one to be very careful so as not to end up catching a falling knife. To avoid the future frustrations, it is highly recommended to go for wide diversification hence, they may cope up with other when once does get failed.

Yeah, the altcoins are really getting a hit pretty fast with the uncertainty that revolves around bitcoin and I am sure no one wants to be caught in the middle of all that. it is best to always relax and wait it out for bitcoin to change trend before investing and then see how the altcoins are gradually responding to that movement before deciding to get in.
