Talented teachers would never start teaching the bitcoin stuff unless and until they are told to do so. Financial education is broad concept and when it comes to bitcoin or crypto currency in general it changes everything about it. The crypto financing is different thing and managing it requires extra efforts as compared to normal finances that we do. But I do agree that financial education is very much important otherwise we would never end up learning how to manage the crypto currency. They have the correlation which we must understand. Otherwise we might just make many mistakes while performing different investment and tradings.

Just because bitcoin is dropping in the value means nothing in the reality. The drop of bitcoin and rise of the same is completely different thing and worth nothing to call it as bubble. Bitcoin always has been painted with the color of bubble and it's completely wrong as we can see that since many years. Everytime people start predicting that it is a bubble then bitcoin starts moving upwards and thus their predictions fail. Later on same people start talking about the greatness of bitcoin and call it as greatest invention of all time. I don't think that anything of this is true, it is just people's concept in reality and nothing else.

I am sure that though the gold supply is limited still it is far far greater than the bitcoin. So we may not compare it straight with the bitcoin. The bitcoin however is good currency and worth investing for other kinds of feature that it gives us on top of other assets like gold. It's digital and transferable from one point to another point with just internet connection and electrical energy. However gold is physical and non transferable international level thus making it more solid. It's value doesn't spike like the way bitcoin's price spike. So yeah surely bitcoin is far better than gold.

Woha man don't curse our crypto currency with that crash. That was old days where people did not understand what the heck internet is (in complete manner). The current era completely different and here we have perfect investor base and people are more smarter than 90's period.

I think we do have enough investors left who still have not entered the world of crypto currency as we speak. There are only millions of people into crypto and the total population is above 700 billions. What the hell that's too much people to count on and hence I believe this crash is temporary and until we get more investors on board we will have the perfect sunset with beer bottle in one hand.

Yeah good hopes always. We should keep the scenario that is going to happen in all positive ways and it doesn't matter if it falls down to 3k or even below. We should be very opportunistic while while looking forward to make investment. This people who are willing to buy at low will love to see bitcoin falling to that much rates.

However, there is always less chance of that happening. Though gox is making the market movement currently still he doesn't have that much power to let it go down. We might see max lower point near to 5-6k. Otherwise we are completely safe and sound while hoping for the spikes in the bitcoin.

Ah I don't agree on that. Bitcoinfuji might be going crazy about all the coins. NEO is doing great and I have invested into it since year now. The coin has given me more than sufficient profits. And who the hell talks about the ETH like that way. ETH is gold laying chicken guys. It did explode from its base price many times and same thing will happen again and again over the time. It's upto us which coin to trust and which coin to let go.

Tron could be worst project and I agree on that. But if you look closer then it is best for swing trading purpose. :-)

Yeah I do think so that blockchain and the depended crypto currencies are all in infancy stage. If they wouldn't have been so then I'm sure that we would have been using them in the real life too. Yes, because there are many missing slices in the pie that we still need to develop which depicts that we are in the infancy stage.

About the blockchain replacing the internet, I don't think that the protocol which was made for the blockchain really contains the info about such networking. I think it will stick to transaction purpose and transmission of digital data with small sizes only.

Here you go :

ETH : Top priority and most popular altcoin around the globe. Plus it is at its lowest value currently if analysed since January 2018. So better spiking chances and at least it will give you more than what you have invested in very short time.

SCL : Recently rebranded as Sociall and v2.0 to be launched on 26th march is being watched by thousands of big investors and is thought to be next NEO. Better you add it to your portfolio as well.

NEO : This coin is surprising coin and I can gift you with double profits at any time. The past is proof for its tremendous increase in the value. Future is even bright as well.

These are top three for me. Rest I might think of enrolling into are XEM, XGM, JNT, IPL etc.

Lolz. Checking it out every hour would be worst thing to do. All the panic feeling will dissolve into your mind and might get you in trouble. Many people do this and that's why your post attracted me to explain why they shouldn't be doing that.

Things we should do when market is down :
1) Stay away from the coinmarketcap
2) keep yourself motivated that it's just temporary drop
3) Always get yourself engaged into different things so that you wont think much about the drop and don't get panic.
4) keep telling yourself that bitcoin is down because it is going to spike huge.

In short keep it positive and let go the fear.

Just because we reached moon in 50's doesn't mean that we will leave the earth and reside on the moon. Isn't that's true?

The bitcoin and banks are the same thing like moon and earth where we know that there couldn't be better place than earth and there is no meaning to reside on moon because it is still harsh and technology is not advance enough to sustain there. We better know the facts that bitcoin is not sufficient enough in terms of its development to fulfil the needs of common banking. The banks work in different ways, to work them out properly they themselves needs rules and regulations so that they can handle the stress of economy and regulate it.
Take the fresh example in bitcoin world where one guy comes in and sells his millions and millions of worth and shake the prices of bitcoin thus leaving everyone unspeakable. If this continued then how bitcoin could be a good bank.

I am pretty sure that it's not over yet. On top of that I believe it won't over anytime soon in the future. Bitcoin is not understood by many people around the globe and it is said that it's in the infancy stage of its development. The corrections, different dramas and much more are just hoax. They are there because they are trying to create fud about it or they really want to develope it really. So you don't have to crazy about it if someone is saying negative stuff. There is still great hope for the bitcoin to rise and it will be gradually but surely.

Great money. If I have that much then I will put half million into my bank account and will start playing the crypto with another half million. Other half million I will divide into bitcoin holding and few of the altcoins portfolio. Later I will put some money on gambling websites like bustadice which seems to be profitable and legit one. I will also play freebitco lottery with at least couple of thousand dollars invested in it. That's just my wish so I will give it a shot. I think doing all this I might get started with decent passive income and will train million into couple of millions.

Woha! Hold it man! It better doesn't go down to 500 USD! That would be unrealistic and worth nothing. I mean if that starts moving down like that then people won't believe the crypto currency again ever. Most of the people are loosing money right now. If the prices go even further down then they will loose so much that they will loose hopes too.

Mt. Gox holds most of the pie and I think he is enjoying his days now. I'm sure he was waiting for this day since long and he exploded this time like anything. Good for him.

Good start as newbie person on the forum. However the information like this has been already published many times by various analyst over the forum and that too with huge details. I'm actually surprised to see guy like you posting all this as you see to me very enthusiastic so keep that one up. We need member like you and hope that you will bring up even detailed topics later on.

About the method you have put forth here it is perfect no doubt about it. We should also note that above all these things there exist your mind which you should control a lot during the trades. The trading can be dangerous if decisions are made with heart rather than the brain.

This is the situation when they say "keep it calm and do the karma".  You have to be very patient during such situations. If you don't keep your mind calm then you will make decisions which you will regret later on when you will see yourself in loss or when you will recognise that you could have gotten huge profits on the holdings.

So you see I'm depicting you the future here. This is what will happen if you don't keep yourself firm on your decision today. So it's in your hand now whether you have to be strong during such situation or whether you have to regret the whole thing later on.

I think this is second time we are experiencing the darkest red bloodbath after the month of January and it is not that bad thing. Let's learn from the experience that we had just a month ago. When it was red all over we bought as much as crypto as we could (at least me) and then traded them when we went into Greenfield. I think there is no great feeling than this that can occur to us. Now is the time history repeats itself again and we should not stay out of the opportunity. I think we must this second time and earn some bucks for ourselves.

We don't need concrete proofs to explain that bitcoin is not a bubble after all. It was already known to us that crypto currency are based on the advance algorithm like blockchain technology and that couldn't be bubble because being virtual it is actually real. The applications of which are real and that's why businesses like this are accepting them now a days so that they can evolve based on blockchain technology.

There is always perfect time and inevstment opportunity for few things in this world and crypto currencies are one of them who has bought best of the two worlds altogether with the help of bridging between them. So it has to be successful in the future too.

Who cares about that. It's simple logic now that if it goes down then we refill our wallets and if it is going up then just sell it off. Then again when it start going down then just buy more and again sell at high. Repeat, repeat and keep repeating that's what we need guys. That way we might just keep the proper circulation of the economy and might just earn more and more profits.

You see this one, we just made profits from your bitcoin which was going under 10K.

I don't trust this method of earning. It could turn things upside down when these projects get listed on the exchangers. Many times they fail due to airdrops only and many time they fail due to bad reputation of the project itself. So it's not worthy to get into these airdrops but people do get into them as it is free and you have to do nothing much but just get yourself registered or something. One thing is sure that the companies do get huge publicity due this method.

Also, there are fewer projects which can start airdrops when they already listed on the exchanger. This project can be good deal though because we already know that they are working and worth something.

Sort of true. There are many around ways which can be used to see that how bitcoin can help us in the daily life. The most useful way to do it is by converting the whole stuff into fiat currency and thus making the use in daily life. I am doing this method of using the bitcoin since very long and it is most convenient way to do it.

I have seen many more threads in the forum which also list the number of hotels, motels, food industry, entertainment industry which use crypto currency as their payment mode. So I think it's unexpected call for the bitcoin that it's not useful.
