It only become a solution against a bear market when you are using it to keep the value of cryptocurrencies intact. You can use it to convert your cryptocurrencies into a digital dollar and keep it and hold it until the price reaches your buying point again, resulting for you to get more cryptocurrencies at such a lower price.

This year's christmas is not in favor for my cryptocurrency portfolio. I am in a negative profit for a few weeks and I am hoping for the price to go up again so I will be seeing green in my portfolio. Even though I am in a negative profits, I still see it as a good sign for me to buy more since the price is on a discount and I don't want to lose the opportunity to get more bags.

Good strong altcoin season will make the situation better, regulation will change it, but the process is too slow, it will take few years. Now there too many scams just because ICO teams find it to hard to succeed without scamming people.
The scam ICO teams don't want their ICO project to succeed, they all just want to scam people. We don't need a strong altcoin season to make the situation of bad cryptocurrency image better, we need a good regulation for the cryptocurrencies in order to create a standard and to make sure that less and less scam projects will penetrate the market. |

It is a straight fact that the scammers are smart. If they are not smart then they cannot scam people. Scammers will always innovate and improve their strategies in order to fool other people and get their money. It is a responsibility to other people to keep learning so they will be able to fight against the scammers in the space.

Cryptocurrency are far way better for me in terms of trading because of the fluctuations that the market has. Stock market is only good for conservative investors since it will take years before you get the amount of profit that you want while in cryptocurrency are good for aggressive investors and traders where they can easily outperform the potential of the stock market in a lower period of time.

If you think that you wanted to invest then choose the most profitable coin like bitcoin it’s worth investing. You should check either the coin is having potential or not and if there are so many of that coin. Instead of all those coins, I think we should choose only Bitcoin and ETH to buy with our money and store longer so you will be able to sell it double after a few years.
Yes we need to choose among all those thousands of coins in the market to where we could spend our money or to where we would invest it. We need an active company, active team members of the coin developer, and also we should consider also that they always updating us in what does their team are doin in order for them to stay in the market. completely research will give us best result. its not easy to pick best portofolio from market when almost all price still go down. some projects have low price, but it could not guarantee us will give profits later. if we regularly and dicipline making research , our felling will trained well too. and we will easily to find good portofolio from market. Doing only research will not do any good for you for long term because there are biased articles and information in the internet that will make you think that it is a good trick to invest in that coin. It doesn't mean that doing research is not a good idea, what I mean is, you should not purely rely on research and also try other methods to obtain a higher successful rate of investing. |

Most of us can be considered as risk taker because we adopt bitcoin. We are the early birds which means that we are the first investors who patronize bitcoin and it is the benefits that we get from it. Overcoming fear is really hard and that is why we are very lucky because we still make investment even though there is a high risk in cryptocurrency market.
The others cannot see this advantage that we're still considered to be the earliest adopters of bitcoin. It's just about risk-taking and you're very open to this kind of investment and technology. Right now, swings are very normal to us and we don't care anymore if the price pumps today or dumps tomorrow. I agree with that. Since we are already used to this kind of volatility, everything seems normal to us and we don't care about anything but only the future of the cryptocurrency. We are all hoping for the best to come for cryptocurrencies so we can happily see the revolution of cryptocurrency and also the price appreciation from our cryptocurrency investments. |

Bitcoin is still only around a decade old. It may take many decades for it to stabilize itself. Stocks, bullion.etc are less volatile when compared to Bitcoin, because they have been around for a long time and a lot many people trade with these assets. As the user base increases, the volatility of Bitcoin will go down. Perhaps within the next 3-4 years, the volatility of Bitcoin will become comparable with that of the stock market It is not about sticking around As it is about real-life utility. Put differently, it doesn't matter how long Bitcoin will be around, for 10 years or for 100 years. There is only one way that its price can become stable (other than at zero, I mean), and that is through real-life application when it becomes more valued for something else which is not reckless and relentless speculation. Until then volatility won't go away. But to tell the truth, this is what many of us in fact like about Bitcoin Definitely. Bitcoin's volatility is indeed what I like and also most of the other people in the cryptocurrency world because we can take advantage of the volatility to create money faster than the stock market. Since bitcoin came in my life, I cannot imagine more of my life that is trading a stable or slow moving asset like stocks and gold. |

I don't think you have to put a limit to yourself of bitcoin, I mean as much as bitcoin you'll own it will be so good in the future, because you'll make really a huge profit from it, so it's better to not set any limits to yourself and just work hard and earn as much as you can of bitcoin
There is no need for limitations I agree with that, you can try to buy or earn as many as you can. I know how much I would like to have, and when I come to that point I will focus more on some altcoins I wish to have. Now I choose Bitcoin when ver I can, I pay attention on other good projects, but Bitcoin is my main focus. I think that it is wise to pay attention to other projects though, you know, as a way of making more bitcoin. We can invest in some good projects and after a few months, they will go up high and that is when we are going to exit the train that they have and enjoy our profits. We can focus in bitcoin while also side hustlin' on other altcoins for quick profits. |

Due to its unpredictable situation. We all are doing tread on alt coin. and looking for good return of investment. in this case, New coin are always plus point to make a good income. Sometimes this might not be happen like if the IEO price is high. so we have to choose new coin in different fact like the supply, its protocol, IEO price and so on. But new coin is a great option to get a good ROI.
Coins or tokens provide an opportunity to profit from trading. Investors will speculate on new coins because usually the market will be very active trading and this will result in high price movements. For some traders, this is profitable Indeed. Most of the new coins or tokens are profitable to trade because most of the time, it is hyped up by its community through telegram and twitter. It is a fast money maker in the market of cryptocurrency for years and if you are not actively looking for hyped coins or tokens then you are missing a big opportunity to create more bitcoins. |

It is normal to see and even experienced from the projects that they didn't keep their promises. Most of these projects came from the amateurs developers and greedy team. I don't invest during the ICO/IEO phase anymore, I just invest after those stages in order to see a small progress and measure it to determine if it is good enough for me to get convinced and invest.

I have always treated mistakes as invaluable experience and did not worry about it. Learn from mistakes, as they say. Without them, you will not succeed.
That is right but you should not always make mistakes because if you always make mistakes then it means that you are not really learning from your mistakes and you are just taking it for granted. Minimize your mistakes as much as you can so you will not waste time and effort in making progress. Implement, do mistake, lessen it. |

Market fundamentals are strong despite the price decrease to this point and it certainly is a great buying opportunity if it gets any cheaper for any investors who've been waiting patiently for it to become good value again so make sure to do your own research and invest wisely
If you are really into long term then market fundamentals will work for you but if not, then you should not rely on the market fundamentals because it is so easy to manipulate it and add some flowery words for the investors to believe in. It is better to base your investing strategy at the technical data that the market has been giving to us. |

|

Nowadays, I don't look at the details of a project anymore, I just look at the coinmarketcap to see what are the cryptocurrencies that have a medium to large marketcap and that is where I will be basing my investment and after my filtering process for the marketcap, I slide into doing technical analysis to see the volatility and possibly entry and exit.

As the poll question states, in your opinion, is it a good idea to buy (stack) gold?
Feel free to elaborate your answer.
Bitcoin is good and Gold is good, but the interest you will earn from Bitcoin is more than what you will make in Gold. If you invested in Bitcoin last decade, by now you have made a lot of money, but if it's gold you wouldn't have made that much because the percentage is less compared to BTC. Only from 2016 to 2017 would have been a good investment. There's still nothing wrong with gold, you can invest in it. Gold is a good investment and has been a store of value for a lot of people. The price is stable and unlike Bitcoin, it is not highly volatile. You can invest in it and still have peace of mind. Right now the only assets I have are Bitcoin and Lands. I have once invested in gold, in 2016, and I sold it around November of that year for closely the same amount I bought at. At the end of the day, it is still depend on the investor if he want a fast moving asset or a conservative type of asset that can bring a mediocre return per year. I agree that they are both good investment but in the long term basis, I will still go for bitcoin because of the potential of its market to grow because majority of the people in this world are still skeptical to bitcoin, so there is still a lot of room to fill for bitcoin. |

By having a weekday 9-5 job, i must say my eyes aren't that keen anymore for trends and hardly made any good decision on buying/selling alts. Basically what i did is: Weekdays: Coinalarm app to observe my portfolio real time but it's far less efficient and responsive to market movement, Slack and Telegram app are linked as well but still is very difficult to process insightful information while in working mood. Weekends: More active than usual but time is limited  Any opinions or suggestion to improve my current situation? Thanks in advance and sorry for bad english  You only need time management, that is the solution for your problem, though it is pretty stressful for me to have that 9-5 shift of yours every weekdays and you're trading in the weekends, you have to decide what is the better opportunity for you, your regular job or your trading cryptocurrency job, if I were you I would focus on Trading (if you earn good at it) and I'm going to keep your job if I were you if you don't know that much in Trading and not interested on learning it. But let me tell you this, if you have enough savings, go for full time Trading, learn a lot of stuffs and just do freelancing, that way you could manage your time much better and you will earn better too. That would be a best thing to do since if you can't afford to trade since you are lacking of time then trading is no good for you and we need to consider those fundamentals since we might gonna lose if we are just trading without knowledge or rely on bots. But I cannot risk to leave my regular job just to trade since trading is not actually a best solution for us to gain since there are some instance that faith is not with us and losing streaks will occur that's why much better to do this as side job and trade only on free time so that no pressure will occur and chances to win is great. maybe it would be more suitable when trading long-term, or investing, so we don't need to monitor prices all the time. trading daily is more risky because we must have the expertise to analyze movements in the near future. and that means we have to take the time, don't push yourself, because it will attack our psychological I agree with this. For people who don't really have time to spare in monitoring their portfolio daily then they should choose long term investing because it doesn't require too much attention for its investors because you can try dollar cost averaging which is effortless type of investing where you will buy a fixed amount of coin or token regularly. |

We can't just use one and disregard the other. First of all we are all here in bitcointalk and most of the replies are about how bitcoin or crypto in general is much better compared to fiat so I am not going to talk about why we should be using bitcoin, that part is already understood by this community and if I had to defend bitcoin against fiat lovers somewhere else I would have said the same thing said here.
However, fiat can't be disregarded completely neither, it is a good system that has been going for years now, the problem is not with the fiat but who is controlling the fiat and that could be the issue here, given the power people who ruined fiat economy could hurt bitcoin economy as well, even though it is harder thanks to blockchain it is still quite possible.
This topic is been ages, still I will choose cryptocurrency, yes fiat is needed in many ways, paying for food, buying clothes etc but the thing is, cryptocurrency is far greater more better in terms of investment it can really have a good profit on it, besides many countries are now rooting on it. in the current conditions between cryptocurrency and fiat both have a positive role depending on our goals. fiat is more accepted wherever to trade, without difficulty to do so. but cryptocurrency is a good investment tool to produce fiat, so we can buy the things we want That is the scenario that we have right now. Fiat is still the leader in doing transactions whether it is through online or offline transactions. Cryptocurrencies are indeed just an investment or a way to create more fiat currencies but it can be also used as a payment gateway because there are cryptocurrencies that only takes a few minutes to be received and that is what cryptocurrencies solve that the fiat currencies cannot. |

Our economic situation affects our lives. I have 10 BTCs in the next 20 years. But there is a condition. Spend bitcoin after 20 years. You shouldn't be turning Bitcoins into dollars today. This way an investment can give reasonable results.
You should depend that decision base on the price movement of bitcoin in the market. If the price of bitcoin is continuously dumping then you should convert it into dollars so you will save yourself from losing money and just observe the market for the possible entry so you will have more bitcoins because you will be buying at a cheaper price. |

the thread was posted last year 2018 . 2018 was late imo and people only realize to start or to focus on blockchain tech ? if they do that they are now behind because others are already done with that but they can still catch up and make thier performance better so that they can won the competition .
anyway we are now currently on the year 2019 and its also about to end , blockchain is also more popular . i think people are done with it and now foccusing on other things .
it's never too late to start. It doesn't matter what year it is or people say oh you're too late the others are more than that. as long as development is still needed there is no harm in trying, remember the more you try the more opportunities or opportunities that will arise. There are people who doesn't want to make investment because they think that they are late. They are still many opportunities in the market and they should not be discouraged. Changing their mindset can help them to be a better person. Once they able to change their mindset then they can see the opportunities by making investment in the market. They are not late and they can still say that they are part of the early investors. besides changing our mindset, we must be aware of the risks, so that panic will not come later. especially to invest in cryptocurrency, of course, is different from investing in property that tends to always go up in price. therefore the courage to invest in crypto is currently needed because the price is cheap Just because it's cheap today, it's worth it to buy. We also need to consider the market chart thus we can get rid from the situation wherein we needed to hold for a long time just because of a wrong decision that was performed within a day. Although courage if vital in investing, it doesn't always necessary in crypto because it can cause you loss too. When it comes to investing, we need to check all of the data that we could find in the internet before we have a judgement if we are going to buy a certain coin or token. Check all the fundamentals if the team are still working hard to sustain the project and also try to apply some technical analysis to find some sweet spot for potential entry of your long term investing. |

I just saw their official announcement here https://www.alibabacloud.com/blog/new-solution-for-third-party-logistics_595584 and https://www.alibabacloud.com/blog/securing-deliveries-with-smart-technologies_595585The important point that I got is the business model being employed under the 3PL approach includes the use of low-cost and versatile frequency sensors that would be installed inside Shipping Containers to monitor their movements and status via the immutable Credits blockchain database. And the use of the Smart Payment Service based on the combined Alibaba Cloud and Credits blockchain platforms is a solution that is currently being implemented by the companies in the Chinese market. The Credits blockchain provides secure transactions between the parties to the delivery process and logistics providers, such as DHL. What do you think about this guys? Will it have a positive effect on the Chinese government regarding cryptocurrencies and blockchain technology? Or even have a big impact on other crypto communities? I've read the news about this, this is the best news I read in 2019 about cryptocurrencies. Alibaba is a big company in China, Alibaba Founder "Jack Ma" is an influential person in the world, this is great for the cryptocurrency ecosystem especially "Credits". I think that Alibaba has recognized the importance of blockchain which may be why they have started cooperating blockchain platform in their business model not so many blockchain company is playing in the logistic transaction. alibaba knows the potential of that field and credits is trying to provide a very scalable blockchain. I believe if this cooperation will go very smooth and we will see more coopeartion with blockchain platform to be implemented into the various ways or service. It will become a huge start for the ecommerce industry to have blockchain technology in their system. Alibaba is one of the most successful ecommerce business in our world and Jack Ma is a wise man, so he is aware with the power of blockchain technology and just like what you said, if this thing succeed then it will most probably open a lot of opportunities to other industries also. |
