because bitcoin was created with the times and technology and that's what makes people invest in crypto currencies that are in advanced and modern countries
and also now that the investment in many countries has grown a lot which makes them get freedom

But what kind of technology we need to invest on the bitcoin?

An android or a pc with internet connection will be enough for people to buy and sell cryptos.

So the analysis based on number of ATM is not going to be right.

Lets be real, US is one of advanced countries, people there have really high paychecks, monthly paychecks. I work entire year for almost nothing with what money will I buy some bitcoins and how much, but average american can take $100 and buy bitcoins, in my case its half of monthly salary, can we compare that.
In my town people still dont know how to use credit cards, what to say more, they dont know to use cash atm, about bitcoin atm they never heard. And this is story how to get some bitcoins, where to spend them is again similar story, in advanced countries you have where to spend bitcoins, in my town you dont have a single place to even talk about it.

From the last three months prices of Bitcoin are range bound and hovering around 3600$ .It seems that the prices are settled and waiting for the uptrend movement . Is it the start of the journey towards 20000$ again?

Your theory is kinda stupid. Grin

The prices aren't waiting for anything.The whales are waiting,which leads to all the other traders waiting.
The market is waiting and this helps the bears,because if they start mass selling btc,the price will go down for sure.

Yeah, it's more of the other way around and as we can observe with what's been happening the last 48 hours, it's by far not going upwards. We may yet see another new low since the 2017 run. A stagnant movement in a price this low can take the guts out of potential new investors.

Even tough I think prices are not going up soon (it could, it might not, we don't know) I also think you are wrong too. I mean just because price is low and it dropped a bit doesn't really mean it will continue to go down. It can recover and go up by a big number as well. Hence I think we should say that we have no idea what will happen to bitcoin.

The real problem comes with the uncertain things if you ask me. If we know what will happen in the future (even if not the price but everything else) we can calculate what the price could be, however during bitcoins life there is always unexpected things that happen changing the price and honestly there is absolutely nothing we can look forward to that can take the price higher or lower hence we are just "waiting" right now.

This theory can be stupid, prices can drop more before they start to rise, anyway we cant deny positive side of this comment, lets be honest its what everyone with some coins wish to happen. This world is very corrupted, 10 years of crypto are to short, we need more time. Do you see governments across the world, what banks do in every country, who can tell me that this world is normal when kids are dying from starvation, people are still slaves, working for couple dollars, while some people are billionaires. Crypto can change many things, will it happen or not its a big question, we will need to wait and see, but I hope for the best.

If you have a desire to trade, then you just need to do it. You have already allowed fear to defeat you, so you just need to force yourself to do it without much thought.
In order to start trading you will need knowledge, so don't ever neglect them. Knowledge is the foundation of trade. But in order to become a successful trader, you need practice as a result of which you will gain valuable experience and learn to act in different situations.
I want to recommend you to plan your actions. This will teach you discipline and help cope with emotions that will certainly arise in the process of trading.

It is our emotion who sometimes bring us down, if we just let it to control our mind definitely we can do the right thing for us. Many traders have fails from their goals, even their courage turn into worries and afraid of that will happen in the future. Everything have change when can't this feelings.

Emotions are always present, how you overcome fear from anything in your life, some people gave good advice long time ago, close your eyes (or don`t) and jump! You need to face it with your fears, only way to do it is to look your fear in the eyes, confronting with it with practice, day by day. Its how you make a progress in any activity or life aspect, I don`t know how else to say it. You cant learn anything if you dont fail occasionally, its the part of learning, you didn`t fail 1000 times you found out about that ways that dont work, 1001 can be the right way.

Naturally, more and more countries will introduce blockchain technology. After all, these are new technologies for the exchange and processing of data, though not yet completely perfect but still.

The blockchain technology has a wonderful feature,thats very appealing to a lot of Industries,countries etc and in the coming years the blockchain technology would be massively adopted as it affords it's users transparency and a system that is impossible to influence.
Countries may not fancy the bitcoin due to its thread to their national currencies,but they will be more accommodating to the blockchain technology as they could use it for a whole lot of use cases

Naturally, it was what we expect for all this years to start happening. You know what, its still slow, bitcoin had ath before all this interest from big part of the world, you can imagine what is waiting for blockchain in few years when majority of countries accepts and adopts cryptocurrencies. This is only a beginning, there is many things that are waiting to happen with blockchain, with some certainty we can say that in future entire world will be in blockchain in one way or another.

Hello Everyone.

So next two days i'm going to buy some Bitcoins for long term investments.

I'm also going to invest in https://trust-mining.com because of clound mining and the possibility for big growing..PoS clound mining looks very interesting for me..

Please advise any other good coins with big future, or maybe another PoS mining services.

Thank You!

in my opinion you should avoid cloud mining, because most cloud mining ends badly, if you have enough capital you should buy a miner, I think it's safer than cloud mining.

I advice the same, avoiding cloud mining services! I think buying miners is very expensive, why not to settle with bitcoins and saving only them. Risks are much less, I always recommend buying some other altcoin too, why not, that`s a good start. I recommend researching some pos coin, its better to buy some coins and stake them, its safer than cloud mining!

There are some similarities but I wouldn't make such comparisons or expect the same scenario. In 2015 market was quite different compared with today, smaller number of investors and not such influence from the side. We can't expect the same growth pattern as it was back then. Today people are quite sceptic and reluctant to invest in crypto market so we need some fresh blood comming and some big influental investors to start the market moving in right direction.

I think there are much more people now involved with bitcoin than 4 years ago. There are similarities, and one more similarity is between 2014 and 2018, price suffered from drop both times for more than 80%.
I can imagine bitcoin price to break this support by the end of this year and rise to $8,000. There is a lot of time, many things can happen, we need to be patient and wait the end of the year.

I gamble and trade, I participate in signature campaigns and some other bounties, except mining I stake some coins, its only difference, cause I don`t wish to say that I`m a miner just cause I`m having some fun with electroneum and I have two phones mining electroneum 24/7, its like a fun.
Why to not do everything you can? Rich people can focus heavily on one thing, but its never smart decision, be in everything you can, a little from everything, its what I do for years, and why not!

When the price drops, it is sure to then rise, so I start to buy at a lower price, but do not need to do it for the full amount of the deposit

Surely it will play well, just stick to your plan and don't bothered for any downfalls happen. Mostly traders fails because they don't have a concrete plan and even they have but they can't manage to follow through.
Following the steps of some successful traders will give light for a better result and even made you more profitable.

Downfalls happen every once in a while, we dont make money when price is dropping, its the time we need to risk our chances and get into something and wait. Its the great thing when you buy at bottom, than a way from there can only be up and thats the time for making profit, when price is rising. Now when price is down risk and buy, than wait to start rising again, waiting can pay off.

Being optimistic 101. Find possible positive things in all situation. I assume that this market dip is just a hard reset of the market's value where 'virus' or unworthy investors, mostly those who panic sell, forced to withdraw their account because of the dip. With this, all weak accounts will be perished and all remaining strong holders go on to victory. After it has been cleaned, we could now enjoy green fields on our wallet. 2019 will be great again for us crypto holders. Stay focused.

True, but you are asking one of the most difficult things for an investor, you are asking them to stay positive and to not worry when many of them are losing more than half of their investment, those that can do it will definitely be rewarded but we need to admit is difficult, just look at how other markets move and you will see investors panicking over losses that compared to what we have gotten are not that big so while I agree with your advice I can see why others are panicking and leaving the market.

If you wish to be correct some investors lost 90% of their investments, I`m talking the about the people who bought on top in december 2017. This is not the first time, same happened to people in 2013. Every market has this huge dips, same happened with many new inventions in the past, with internet, amazon, even apple. Not everyone is panicking, as I see many people still work a lot in cryptospace.

I think the real key is "become smarter". You are not always to hold your assets with patience every time. For the coins that possibly die, you are absolutely better to sell them even if it is in bear market. While for top coins that may be promising for the next rise, it is no problem to hold. Become smarter means you know the best decision and how to make it to be true. But patience doesn't always mean a smart one, you should understand it..

I agree with you except we must be patient we must have more information, knowledge about the cryptocurrencies, businesses and investing. It is useful power in cryptocurrencies space and other, our knowledge will helps to make decision on all of instrument of investment, with knowledge investment is not risk we will get high risk if we don't know anything about the cryptocurrencies, so we must follow the trend of cryptocurrencies and the latest updating about the cryptocurrencies to be smarter.

Before patience you need to make a right choice! You can sit on some coins for life, but that doesn`t mean that will pay off one day, you need to choose right coin and sit on it for years. I saw many new tokens going to 1 satoshi after hitting exchanges, many coins had a long way to bottom, the key factor for succeeding in cryptocurrencies is choosing the right altcoins to invest in them.

It seems to me that we should not expect a high price for Bitcoin this year, the growth dynamics of its price this year is not very active, and on this basis it can be assumed that approximately the same dynamics will continue throughout the year. In my opinion, the highest price that Bitcoin can achieve this year is 8000-10000 dollars.

Yeah, there are too many speculators in the market today and everyone has it's own prediction as where the price should be, but we can't really tell at this point because of the wild price swings, who knows, maybe we can top $20k or down to $2K at the end of the year. What I'm trying to drive out is that everything is possible but we also need to take in consideration that we are still in the bearish market so don't expect any high price.

That everything is possible should always be in the mind of every investor, one problem I notice a lot is that people make a prediction and then they believe the market will do exactly as they say then when that does not happen they think there is something wrong with the market when the easiest explanation is they made a mistake when they made their prediction.

Its better to not expect it, if you do expect high price maybe you will end up disappointed if something else happen. Crypto market is very potential market, it can grow a lot, in my point of view many things can trigger some mass adoption of cryptocurrencies, even more than in 2017. I think we have a good direction, we hold good stronghold at this price. Will it happen this or in next few years no one can say, my prediction is that in next 5 years it will happen.

Quote from: qwerty6274 on January 24, 2019, 07:00:15 AM

I do not quite agree. Predictions are different. If the forecast is based on faith, then you definitely should not make your plans based on this forecast. If the forecast is obtained by investigative links, then it makes sense to follow such a forecast. For example, there is a forecast that Bitcoin should grow in price this year. This is explained by the fact that prices have stages. All last year there was a stage of falling prices, now a stage of stabilization at the lowest point of this movement. After this comes the stage of price increase. Personally, I adhere to this theory, because it always works in practice.

I don`t agree at all! Prediction is a prediction, false promise is something else. Prediction can be based on facts, in prediction you can consider all possible risks but in the end you can see different results, nobody can predict the future. False promise is promise that is made with no intention of carrying it out and especially with intent to deceive.
Predictions about cryptocurrencies are not false promises, people just expect a lot and we believe in our optimistic predictions. Normal people dont give false promises, scammers do!

I will say from my own experience that patience doesn't always benefit. I agree that need to keep in your portfolio the main currency, from the top - 10, for example. The rest should be sold and not wait for high prices, otherwise your portfolio will grow like a snowball, but there will be little benefit.

Most of my money made was on top 10, but I made a lot of money with many other altcoins. Patience is the key for long term trading, and for trading generally. When I invest in something I check where they are in top 100, but if they are lower I believe that they will rise and I wait that. Many times my altcoins were sinking but I didnt sold or panic, I just waited and that paid of. Thats my experience, in this times I wait and for a year I will tell you how much that waiting paid off.

As for me it's Binance. There are a lot of advantages and not so many disadvantages.

Op is looking for exchange with a lot of coins listed and many pairs, binance is the perfect place for him. About fees, there are some less unknown exchanges where fees are lower but sometimes people should forget about fees and think about security of their coins. Idex is not bad at all, I`m using them for some time already and I have just good experience with them.

Quote from: sunanbonang on January 22, 2019, 11:37:52 PM

when the price falls I can only expect prices to recover and try to find out the cause of falling prices, I am very difficult to determine the lowest price, so I don't buy when the price falls.

Its what most of us expect when prices are going down, to recover one day. Main thing is to not panic in this times, and if you have some money to buy more. Diversifying is a good thing, I do that with my investments, but when prices are going down I don`t sell for any other coin, run away in this times are stable coins. Stable coins are safe haven in times of falls and like that I keep my money and I buy again when price goes down more.

Quote from: Klausi on January 22, 2019, 02:48:33 AM

If there's a possibility of price to be bullish this 2019, we can see higher market demands. For now there is no signals that it will happen. But, I do believe that this situation might become a big surprise and that's very unpredictable. Hopefully everybody will learn to trust crypto specially those who just started lately, and they should be able to learn how to control emotions towards holding crypto assets.

Depends with how much money you can try to trust. Its all about that trust, if you trust in bullish market than invest now, if you believe in drop sell what you have, dont wait to lose money. Its bottom line, you try or not try, believe or not believe, either way you are risking, why not to risk for what you believe in, dont wait others to tell you that.
If you know that bitcoin will hit $100 K in next few years, you would sell everything you have and you would wait, like any of us here. We don`t know that, so we need to risk, each of us is risking, to take $100 now or to wait few years and have nothing or $10 K? Choice is on each of us.

Yes, trading and even holding requires constant attention and checking the price of cryptocurrencies, there are convenient applications about the growth of various digital currencies

Depends what kind of strategy you wish to apply that much time you need to spend on it. I don`t pay attention on prices everyday, I`m long term trader, I have many coins that I wait to grow. Last year wasnt so fruitful for many of us, but I still have my coins and I will wait new bull run before I sell anything, in the meantime I will work for more. Just move the price from your eyesight and concentrate on technology you invest in.

Quote from: Mechesinor on January 21, 2019, 08:19:55 AM

Am getting it a bit confused, my question is that,is it bull run or pumping?cos I saw someone making augment that's not bull run buh rather pumping, anyway whether pumping or bull run all are good,this year all I can say is,it gonna be good pumping, bull run of this year,it's gonna be amazing.

We can say that bull run is heavy investing in cryptocurrencies, times when big players are buying and holding their investment. Pumping coins is a term for low quality coins, when one player can set up buying orders and like that to artificially rise demand. After pumping price can goes down to 0, after bitcoin bull market price will not go to zero, it will settle somewhere, higher than before.
