There are some countries that don't like the idea of allowing a decentralized cryptocurrencies because they are not yet prepared for it. These countries are mostly in the third world where their economy is not yet stable. Other kind of government that doesn't are socialist type like China and they instead support any coins that are created by them. But not all governments are against bitcoin because some of them have already legalized it.

When you are newbie, it is really difficult to understand cryptocurrencies first but if you are determined in educating yourself on the basics of cryptocurrrency and blockchains, you will achieved that sooner or later. I think many people are invested or bought some coins without the knowledge of what cryptocurrency is all about and the coins works. These lack of knowledge in cryptocurrency often lead to panic selling when the price of the coins they bought go down. They should strive to learn the basics of cryptocurrencies first before buying some coins.

It depend on the quality of altcoins because some of them may not last in the exchanges or their value may not go up again for long time after they listed. The value of a newly listed coin usually go down temporarily but if it have a potential then it will bounce back soon. I'm still holding some of the coins that I recieved from the bounties because they are solid coins and I believe that their price may go up soon.

The growth of bitcoin this year might not like the growth that happen last year because since january up to now, the market is mostly bearish. The last quarter of this year might turn to some price surges if there is a positive development coming to lift the market temporarily. The price of the bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies might go up slowly till the year end.

I think it better to control your emotion during trading than to get to get of it. Emotion will always be there and no one can detach from it. Learn to manage your emotions first before going to trade and learn also on disciplining yourself. Prepare your mind for any eventuality in your trading, accept whatever the result and learn from it. Every loss is a part of a learning process that will eventually make you wiser in your next trade.

I'm not only saving it, I'm hodling it till the price go up again. The best thing to do while its price is still dipping is to invest more if have still available funds for buying the top coin. Bitcoin may not have a bullrun this year but there is big chance that it would go bullish in the following year. It better to set our sight for long term instead of short because it is more profitable.

As of this time, the price of bitcoin is over $6700 again and many people are still hoping about bullish market before the year ends. If the crypto market go bullish, it might not last long because there still no positive developments to support the bullish market into going further. So reaching the previous all-time high of december 2917 is not feasible this time.

Cryptocurrencies can be use to help solve some socio economic problems in some provided that the coins are legalized and already used widely by their own citizens and businesses. People or some non govermental organizations can also raise funds from holding or trading some well-known cryptocurrencies to raise funds for their anti poverty programs. In some countries that experiencing financial hardship because of currency devaluation, cryptocurrencies can also a great help for the people in alleviating their economic miseries.

I think it will depend on your situation and on the coins you are currently holding. Daily trading is more risky if you are not prepared for it. You need enough knowledge, skills and experience to become successful in daily trading. Good trading strategies is also needed to become successful trader. Holding a coin for a long time is for those who had to time trade and it is more profitable because all you had to do is to wait for the price  of your cryptocurrencies to go up. If you have enough patience for long term holding then you can surely earn significant profits inthe end.

The 4th quarter or the last three months of this year are usually the time for some bullrun in the stock market and other equities where most traders are trying to earn higher profits before the year ends. In crypto market, last year bitcoin lead the crypto world with its all-time high of $20k but ended the year with its price going down. This year, the trend might be different from last year and if a bullrun ever happen, it will not be the same like the bullrun last year and we might even end up in a bulltrap again.

This price forecast for ethereum was posted last May when its price is still trading at $515 and when the expectation for another ethereum bullrun is still high. But now the price dropped significantly, that prediction is no longer realistic. Ethereum need a non-stop bullrun in the remaining months of this year to reach that $15k level but it is still experiencing drops in price and a slow growth.

Some price rebounds may happen in the last quarter of this year but it might not lead to another bullrun like the one that happened last year. Most of the market are bearish but growth or recovery will still depend on a positive developments that happen in the next several weeks. The last tree month of this year is usually positive for the cryptocurrency market but nobody know it become positive.

If most of the governments accepted and legalized bitcoin, many shops would soon start accepting bitcoin as their mode of payment and no need to wait for that year 2025 to be fully implemented. Legalization will speed up the bitcoin adoption because the businesses and bitcoin users are no longer afraid of using it. Japan have already legalized bitcoin and many of its shops are starting to accept the cryptocurrency in their transactions.

If you are referring to the price of december 2017, I think it would take time before it happen again. The market, particularly the bitcoin is still in accumulation which can last about a year or more. The current price of the bitcoin is still high and it seems more stable than the previous months. If you are waiting for another bullrun like last year then I think it may not yet happen this year so just continue to hold your coins more till another bullish market comes.

Banks will continue to exist even if the whole world goes into cashless transactions. Banks have also their own ability to evolve their banking services digitally. The fiat can also be converted into digital money like the cryptocurrencies but not decentralized. Only time can tell when will the world doesn't need the banks anymore but I think they will continue to exist longer than you think.

These people might really want to destroy bitcoin to make way for their own coin or they wan to buy bitcoin in a cheaper price. There are many negative news about the top coin and other deliberately want it down but it always managed to recover on its own time. Almost all altcoins follow the price of bitcoin andwhether it is negative or positive. FUDs and other negative factors might affect the price bitcoin but it's only temporary.

Ethereum is still good to hold for long term because it has still a lot of rooms to grow. Ethereum will recover like bitcoin but it is difficult to know when will it bounce back again. The second ranked cryptocurrency has the potential to grow high in the future because of its better technology and features like smart contracts and platform for developing new applications.

If bitcoin recover before the year end, it won't be like the one that happened last year when it price reached an all-time high of $20k. The overall trend of the bitcoin this year is bearish but it is still a normal price cycle for the top cryptocurrency. Some price spikes might happen before the year end but not will not go high. Don't be too concerned on possible price downtrend of bitcoin because it's only temporary.

Cryptocurrency is still growing and its future is getting more promising. There are more positive developments coming in the years ahead so there is no need to give up. These setbacks are part of cryptocurrency investing and these will teach you how to become wiser in your future crypto endeavour.

Bitcoin and ethereum are both good for investment and this two coins has already proven their worth in giving you profits when it comes to long term hold. They both suffered some losses but they also managed to recover later. There is no need to compare them because they are not at the same function. These two top coins are also both popular to many investors and users and almost all bitcoin holders are also ethereum holders.
