2018 is already better than 2017.
Don't be fuled by prices, just look at people interested in bitcoin and other cryptos, their number is increasing and this is what matters.
well, this year my knowledge has greatly increased regarding cryptocurrency. however, my income dropped quite drastically. well, I might think that 2017 is the year for cryptocurrency. that year was really great.
knowledge is more important than money because it cannot be buy therfor you should still be thankful and you should consider that bitcoin in 2018 is better than 2017 not just because of price comparison but also based on your learnings as well .
2018 is also a better year compared to 2017 because this is the year that all cryptos have experienced a big break . if you are an investor , you can greatly enjoy this perfect oppurtunity to buy alot of coins since the price is down for a longer time span .
