Down down we go.

[Viecoin]

Perfect time to buy. I like how everyone in my daily life asks me if Crypto is a bubble after losing trying to hop on the top of every pump (IE Ripple). I tell them to hold, but in my mind, I'm telling them to dump everything as crypto is no place for weak minded individuals. The only losers are the ones that sell at a loss. Trader or Hodler.

Bitcoin has gone down, with more bad news that keeps feeding the FUD, the price may decline below 10K. All the bad things seem to take place simultaneously and bring damage to the crypto world. Fraud, scams, hacks are threats that are very harmful and do no good to bitcoin. More and more people think cryptocurrencies are a bubble  that will soon burst.h

[Minecache]

Today the whole market dived to the bottom once again. Does someone have money to buy coins at low prices? I'm not. It's a pity that I will miss this opportunity)) I hope that after this fall there will be a good surge.

[ZZ8ZZ]

I think market will start growing back and stabilizes by march

I think so too, people say that the market is so volatile that checking the history is not worth it, but it looks like that every single year, around this time, bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies went down like crazy and after March things stabilized again and the crypto world boomed again. I'm pretty sure that after the Chinese New Year things will be OK and we'll be in the green again.
One other interesting opinion from a whale I know is that if BTC doesn't go to the bottom, the big guys will force it to hit the bottom and then skyrocket it again. What is the bottom you ask? Around the 8k mark.

All the fud and whales taking profit,slowing down progress in crypto.no wonder new money is not coming into market .perfect opportunity to short the market. I don't need new money to come in to profit, I'll just take a chunk of what's already there . In my opinion this is very healthy. Lots of weak hands exited crypto lately. Serious investors and hodlers remain.

Perhaps, we are in the stage of the coming back into increasing value whatever coins we are holding it. Yes its true serious investors are still remain because that the only things we could do about it. So I believed that everything will comeback  into normal things, for the past couple of weeks the market was totally devastating and frustrating for the weak holders only.

I wish I had enough money to buy in at this dip. Seems like a great time for people to make a lot of cash if they can just hold for a while. Bitcoin was well below $1k today and all I could think was "man, I wish I had a couple hundred k" lol... You can pretty much double your money right now if you buy btc where it is and hold until the bull run.

[Good Bo]

We are on a BEAR market now. so it is much better to margin trade short. However at any time crypto can break this bear market and be on a bull run again. We need to be very careful for our short trades. remember crypto industry is just getting started.

Do short trade now is better than long run trading.
The problem only with the bitcoin or any asset that we bought last time and now the price is lower.
But my believe in crypto that this can be passed. Lets see

[Webcelerator]

On the news on Bitfinex and Tether the market collapsed again, there are suspicions that Bitfinex may fail. But the price is now right for the purchase of bitcoin.

[Haunebu]

Another $1 per token lost. 

This is getting really weary. The downs seems to not end everyday. It will just rise for some time but the dips are way too large.
Bitcoin fall might be really affecting every token that is out there. It is not like before when bitcoin falls alts are going way up. Now, they are both going to hell.
Thousands of dollars are now lost with a lot of investors.

It has hardly ever happened that (in fiat) alts go significantly up when btc goes down.  When btc goes down, so does the rest...But I wouldn't worry too much.  Lightning network is coming and there will be a bull market.  + Eth doesn't seem to get affected much which is a good sign.  Tokens and newer alts seem to get the hardest beatings but that is to be expected.  A lot of them went way too high in the first place.  Place some buy orders a bit below of what we're seeing today.  It are in fact great daytrade times...

Well said. So many people are going crazy over the blood red markets these days and spreading unnecessary FUD here and there without thinking clearly. The market will stay bearish like this only for a few more days and will convert to a bullish market soon as you said due to the integration of the lightning network(Testing already underway) and higher segwit adoption numbers.

Even though the market is in a blood red state currently, I am expecting bitcoin to reach $40k by the end of this year. South Koreans just like the Chinese will find other ways to invest into crypto soon which will also boost the market.

Yes, its a good comment. Taking a look at the market cap in the beginning of 2018, it was around $850 billion but now dangling at $500billion because the whales already take profit and also the week hands already sell off their crypto. Its indeed a healthy one for the crypto market.

It has happened, not as rarely as you seem to suggest, but if an alt is reputable and at least useful beyond the normal "low fee, fast transaction" argument, they will always have their own individual price growths, that don't depend on how Bitcoin is performing. BUT, once that growth (or decline) has happened, then its "stable" price will always move around the same pattern as Bitcoin's. This is only natural, just look at any chart when there isn't anything special going on with alts. They mirror BTC.

You're right. Lighting will kick in and everyone will forget they ever doubted.

as i said this is best time to buy potential coins. i personally got lot of coins in this dips. this dip is market correction. actually this may be till January ends. but after January ends means in February then potential coins definitely going to be moon soon. my recommended coins are sia, agi, trx,xrp,nem and eth. eth is the main thing. in the year end eth will go up to 3500$ , my radar says like that

Do you have any source so thats why you are thinking that in february price of crypto will start to the moon.
I have believe with crypto but not all, only pitential crypto will go to the moon not just shitcoin.

I think that is his speculation, base on past history of bitcoin it usually in a bull run on February and continue up to 2nd quarter of the year and suddenly drop and make a bull run again up to December.

[Gusk]

it's all time and the crypt to recover and very quickly even look back before you have time. Better now hold and not look at the price. The most important is now time

[Cryptoshops]

It needed to go down to attract more investors

Now whales are buying cheap bitcoins and cheap altcoins and then we will fly up. It's a game. Investors with strong nerves win.
Now is a good time for buying cheap altcoins.

[dicaprio]

Yes, yesterday was a fun night. Because yesterday I almost did it in my pants. But all the same, I understand that the decline stopped and we rebounded to $ 9600, of course on different exchanges was +/- $ 200. So I think that we should fly soon.

[tiar4dewie]

Winter is the best time to buy. Right now all the markets are going down, and crypto especially, as the Chinese New Year is coming soon.

I think this year, Chinese new year will not affect the price of crypto. the news China is in crisis policy of crypto money. but I dont know if on the day of celebration, the crisis can dampen.

[ruskytailz02]

of course it is better if you can join the ride of those whales haha. seriously I am a holder and also a trader I take advantage of the dips of course and
as long As I gain or doubled my profit for example I will stay again in the Ethereum or my first currency as it retrain its price hahah . nd also now as the bitcoin price it was back again like last feb march april to june of the year 2017 and I think it will high up again . hopefully

usually at the beginning of the year the price of all the coins have decreased,
if the analysis is like this,
I suggest to keep calm and hold long term if do not want to lose.
