Holding is really the best option we have now, as bitcoin price is just moving in a small circle, where could be the next opening? we still do not know. I am very positive on the halving that will occur in 2020 since the previous halvings did really well to the bitcoin price pumping its value for quite some time. Aside from bitcoin, we can still make efforts in analyzing the alternative coins market but I guess the possible profit is not that high.

The economic slow down is mainly affected by the US-China trade war due to international operations that has been stopped because of the current conflict which resulted to a massive decline in many countries.
Nope it's not getting better now, it becomes severe now. Having that said, signs of recession can be seen by now on which I think can be cured and prevented to happen in some ways.

It will look appealing to beginners and newbies because it offers a free service, but won't matter to the old ones in here. why? because experienced trader already knew how the market behaves and knowing it is free it might just be a gateway to market manipulation. Anyway, I would save the link and recommend this to anyone who is willing to learn.

It is still not impossible for bitcoin not to be replaced by any worth altcoin in the market however the bitcoin dominance now is still very huge incomparable with the certain dominance in the market right now. Bitcoin will be the biggest star of crypto that os absolute thing, I don't think any cryptocurrency will ever be ahead of bitcoin.

We have not been in lightning network though,  But i agree the transaction fees are more than what I am paying back then. But you guys would would consider if buying in vending machines is more benificial unlike buying in actual cashier the you are wrong, I have noticed in fastfood chains here im my country, people do still prefer buying on counter than on kiosk. So I would say having actual cashier is better than having electronic ones of kiosk.

For quite some time the bitcoin is just moving in a short price point that's why people are not that panicking. It does not matter if bitcoin does not move in a higher price point, as long as people sees an opportunity to have a decent profit that may be the time we will see a more volatile market. The price of bitcoin, though it is not above its ath, the time it will be at higher than it is now, that is the time we will see a more propagating market that is for sure.

My technique too when I am going to withdraw I will convert it first to XRP or ETH before sending it to my wallet. Another is, I don't really withdraw that much, as much as possible I want a one time withdraw from all my holdings not only with bitcoin but also on other altcoins I hold. Transaction fees with bitcoin is very high right now, So I guess it will be good if you will not use that as escape in the market especially when you earned a lot.

" Trust no one " A single quote that saved many lives of people in here. I would never, ever sell my bitcoin in a way like what you did because it is a big BS trusting anyone in here especially when trading It is best if you use some services of escrow or middle men in trading. Another thing is Paypal is obviously backing off from any cryptocurrencies, remember when it pulls out its support on libra? Paypal could have adopted the bitcoin for many years but they didn't. Actually that says a lot.

As I have read the youtube's statement regarding it is quite obvious why they made an excuse as if it was a real error, I don't think there will be some errors on youtube about that one but it was a real decision that has been made and been regret after the surge. The thing with crypto related videos to be banned is very unreasonable, just think of the videos in youtbe that has no meaning at all but just all nonsensical stuffs. Instead of banning the crytp-related videos, why not make a solution for people not to get easily attached with some kind of scamming content by having ads about it?

No. HSBC is originally from the Hong Kong, HSBC stands for Hong Kong and Shanghai Banking Corporations but you are right the headquarters is located somewhere in U.K. Prior to that information, basically there is a big fraction of China that has the control to the bank, and HSBC itself don't want to withdraw their asset worth billions just to go with HK protesters.

Banks are being banks no matter how silly the situation from the outside world is, money will be more important to wealthy people.

It does not need any government at all given its decentralization system. It already reached an ATH, a massive ATH way back in 2017 without any prior notice from any government so it would probably be at it again. If this happens then most probably it will beat its own ATH ($20000+) perhaps that will be another key to open great doors of reality not only with the government.

So how would the progress move if we have this kind of thinking? Buying stuffs using bitcoin is not awful, what's awful is that you don't use your bitcoin and let it dry from your wallet. I'm not against on what you have said but isn't the main purpose of bitcoin? to be a currency universally? No doubt why the price of bitcoin is still at $7K because there are lots of holders, not against with holders too but that is not the prime use of bitcoin.

-2.19% is enough to go buy because there is only one way to go opposite but to gain some. What I think of the price these couple of months is a good to buy price since it is been on that price range, between $7K to $7.5K, my conclusion is that we already founded the least of our expectation wit the bitcoin's price, so it will be easy for us to know the market condition when 2020 comes.

That is very unreasonable if youtube claims that alibi, just think of clickbaits in youtube, you could see tons of people deceiving the user of the content then it turns out to be far from the title and they get views counted for earning money. Youtube already re-uploaded the deleted videos from various channels and guess what, it is not about avoiding the masses to be scammed.

This is what the US is going to do that's for sure. Reality check, even if bitcoin is popular and universal, still no country will officially make it as their currency because it will never attain the stability. US on the other hand is very known for their economy, I don't think they will risk it with bitcoin and hope the best it can do after being adopted. Perhaps they will make a move, a move that no one has ever think of.

Investor of this coin should wake up! You guys never see any development on this project the last time it went wild way back 2017 up to early 2018. XRP is not going to repeat its pump like it did on the last years, why? because it is getting manipulated and handled by some organizations that is taking their investors money.

As long as I am not seeing any update on this I'll be doubtful about this. I've read about these signals group in telegram which uses their huge community users as an advantage behind the what they so called
" Legit Signals " they are taking advantage after they release a word on their telegram with a chart (plain chart , self-explanatory). Now I got to see the update on this thread coz 4000+ user is a lot.

I never saw bitcoin's price touched at $3K or did I missed something big here? The last time I see bitcoin at $3K was in October 2017 and as far as I know it never dive again at $3K. But let us say that bitcoin hit $3K this year and reaches $7K today it will not going to be the best performing crypto of the year since it is best crypto of the decade. If you are looking for a best performing coin might as well you look with Chainlink.

try and try until you succeed? Trading cryptocurrency makes a difference on that quote, you cannot just try and try after try... it will be more right if it's try and try if you afford to lose because the market will test you until you lose your patience and money since volatility is at the very high rate especially top 10 coins in the market. A good advice for now is just to hold until the next halving, that might be a good strategy for the moment.

Cryptocurrencies cannot be just a normal currency to step on the fiat currency especially that every nation has its financial and monetary system wherein cryptocurrencies cannot intervene. It is good to see some people who wants a complete cashless system but let us face the reality that the ideal society we want is just too good to come true at least not within the next 30 years.
