yeah diversifying might be helpful to prevent a small percentage of loss, better than converting to fiat especially if you want to use crypto for transactions.
Yes, that is what I am also inclined to.
Indeed, it's good if there are assured people like some visitors of this forum, who are not subtle to panic if the winds just blows a bit, but what if this is the case of tsunami?
If those who do the tricks (mainly developers and most influential persons of Bitcoin world) will not reach consensus (hope they will) and some smartest will go their way, a lot of variants are possible, including not positive ones.
As a usual investor could read articles like (just an example):
https://bitcoinmagazine.com/articles/bitcoin-beginners-guide-surviving-bip-148-uasf/the only conclusion for new or typical investor is: "now go to fiat and wait what will happen for a month at least". And, what is pity by fact - those who did that way were right, because since the 1st of June '17 the negative delta was from 2984 USD to 1882 USD (if to speak about BTC only) which is about 37% negative delta. This is not a stability we all want (hope so).
I do not care much of any specific media sources or other tokens, but I care general positive trend and stability, I want, as an Investor, to see BTC as a strong, predictable tool for a long-term use and sleep nights calm.
May me yes, may be no, but what is better - go to fiat or go to other tokens to save common reputation of crypto economy?
I prefer latter because even if something goes wrong, it will deal with BTC only or even with some fork of BTC (time will show) - all cryptos fighting v/s fiat for the place under the Sun with the BTC as a leader, and Bitcoin in the same boat with all the other tokens, BTC is still a mainstream, so may be it is the time for other tokens to help BTC (instead of leaving cryptos at all) and all crypto economy? Do not fright the crypto investors in other words.
You guys really let me think that all will be OK, but I just want to have some more backgrounded opinions to make right decisions in this period. I do not want to go to fiat even this time. So is it in OK if I choose other crypto (which are also relatively cheap nowadays)?
Thanx a lot for your thoughts, appreciate it.
