Slump is just figurative, overall crypto market is getting stronger ?

[CreamIce]

The market has been too volatile but overall the shape for crypto is improving in the world.

With countries building regulations and big shots co-operating the trends, you think it's ok to bear some losses?

Is crypto really creating its dominance? You think regulations will help coins get stable in the long run?

yes, indeed regulations are made to make it better and more comfortable and guarantee investors to be calm and not afraid of their investments. but some people believe that regulation has a bad side, can hold hostage, manage or intervene and manipulate all of them with their will.

I think that now the influence of crypto has become much more than a couple of years ago. This suggests that cryptocurrencies are slowly but surely taking over the world and taking their rightful place in the modern world.

What do think about ICO's? I personally feel nervous when thinking to invest in them. One reason why my graph isn't going too well here. You think ICO's they will ever fall under regulations ? How is regulation going to make them safe?

Regulations are meant to work for the governments in order to feel that they have control, Crypto is on the rise in every country every day as it progresses and improves.

Of course, regulations can make the cryptocurrency less volatile, but there is an otherside, because initially cryptocurrencies were created in order for people to be independent from the government and banks, and to obtain greater freedom of action.

Once the crypto market matures, the wild wild west of 3x to 10x gains will be gone.
Sure it will increase the crypto market cap but the trade off will be a slow and boring gains/losses.
Q4 of 2017 will be remembered as the one of the best times to be in crypto

that is not what i see to be honest.
what i see is a lot more shitcoins compared to a couple of years back with a huge market that is only big because of these shitcoins. in fact if you remove all of them you can see that there has been growth but nowhere near an acceptable level to be called "good shape"!

With countries building regulations and big shots co-operating the trends, you think it's ok to bear some losses?

no it is never OK to bear losses, you have to take care of your money specially when it is not "some" losses! you seem to be missing the fact that altcoins have gotten dumped a lot. some has gone down more than 90% and 90% loss is not acceptable let alone be "ok"!

Is crypto really creating its dominance? You think regulations will help coins get stable in the long run?

no and no.
as i said above the bloat is shitcoins not real legit crytpo currencies. and regulations don't have to be good. in fact in most cases they are damaging.

I think governments will eventually try to control it. Now that crypto is spreading its reach I think governments are realizing its better to take charge or else they'll forever lose the control over their most cherished economies.

But what about the stable ones. For example ETH or Ripple? They show progress. Bitcoin has always been there. You think we still shouldn't trust these coins?

This is what I'm trying to understand TBH. In longer run you think we'll see more filtering and limited coins? Is there a probability for this? Or With market's reach spreading out, things will get even more messier with more shitcoins and scams pouring in?
How will we be able to determine what's good for us then?

The domination of technology is true, but the credibility of it with such events is increasingly falling and some countries are really creating rules and barriers to change or make it profitable for them. Let's see with the advent of bulls as they react to this.
