You missed all the trains, not just bitcoin

[ProofOfLambo]

I have read many posts of people saying they are sorry to have missed Bitcoin. But I wonder if they realise that there have been more than 20 trains out there that could have made them millionaires.

They have managed to miss at least all these, some of them as recent as July last year. It is not that you missed Bitcoin, is that you (and I) just missed many many others

And there are going to be a lot of trains ahead.
It's not so smart to say " you missed the trains" after it happened.
You could also buy apple stocks at about 1.5$ and could have made about 50000% on a regular stock.
I believe that everybody misses chances, but we should be happy that we are going to have some chances ahead.
Also don't forget that the people who held those coins when they were so low, probably didn't wait and sold the coins after a profit of 100%/200% or even less.
It's almost impossible to hold coins for so long.

[biascoin]

oh really ? So tell us one thing... with hundreds of coins (if not thousands) and most of them going up with a value that goes higher every time... tell me my friend, where is that blockchain block scarcity ?

If all coins are worth some dollars they provide the same value that Bitcoins does today. Nevertheless, some coins may be technically superior, others an obvious scam, and some maybe just equivalent clones.

But having dozens of coins to chose from, I see not BlockChain Asset scarcity and no reason to trust Bitcoin over any other coin like say Etherum, Monero, LiteCoin or even one more regulated and already mined like Ripple (XRP).

And if you are going to tell me that the other coins that are based exactly on the same technology of Bitcoin are shitcoins well... maybe you can explain a reason why they increase in value just like Bitcoin ? and please, do not tell me they are just pumped because for now all cryptocurrencies are pump and dump stock-like assets, they provide almost no real value to anyone other than in trading.

Still it's a ways to earn some money on trades. It's not a last train, it's just the beginning. At least I look that way on the situation.

[sserge009]

Crypto is such a large railway station, with so many trains that you can not travel at all. It remains to study the station itself and try to grasp the constantly passing trains.
and I think that for example the etherium is not the last crypto miracle that we will see.

[shulio]

Crypto currencies are all like trains. Nearly every coin, that you buy at ICO stage or from an airdrop, will make you earn good fortune. A lot of trains missed but a lot of them are coming.

[speem28]

Nice statistics and yes, we missed a lot of trains that could make us millionaires at some point but we don't have to worry about the future of cryptocurrencies in the world is bright. It is still gaining a lot of attention and besides, there are lots still a lot of trains that we can ride on to the fortune we desire. Let's just be patient and observant about those oncoming train.

[isaac_clarke22]

OP you could have stated "some trains" not "all the trains" , well this time we're out of the trains but soon we will get to the flight instead. The Bitcoin is now steadily rising, not yet out but it will soon enjoy its flight to 20k that we always had dreamed of. Do you think that those "train coins" will last for a long-run. NXT that launched in Novermber 2013 but now how was it? A successful coin is just normal to be high-priced at the market but that is not where it will end. Will it sustain drops or crashes? Bitcoin became more than a bull-et train at its first run like because of its rapid price in US Dollar, many treated it like a bubble. These trains you're talking about are still connected to Bitcoin, as Bitcoin became more than a mother for cryptocurrencies. When the Bitcoin market cap goes "dark" red, it is a bit difficult to see a green market in other coins. Like some people are really general-minded in the way that they sell their other coins if news about a certain ban or regulation or even FUD were just for Bitcoin. We could have missed those trains, but we always have a bull-et train here that is guaranteed to push through these threats it getting lately.

There are always opportunities everywhere which could have been profitable to average people. Amazon's stock opened at $18 under its IPO and is now worth more than $1000. If the venezuelan bolivar recovers from its hyperinflated state, the growth potential could represent an investment opportunity to rival the gains of many crypto currencies over the past 16 months. Someone could have made good money betting on the Philadelphia Eagles to defeat the New England Patriots in the 2017 NFL Superbowl.

Certainly, those are all opportunities lost.

Its ok. There will be other opportunities in the future! The important thing is to learn from experience and do better the next time! There may be other opportunities similar to bitcoin. Don't get discouraged and don't give up. 

[taiwww]

But have you noticed one thing that these things will repeat themselves again and again as the bitcoin will rise this year or next year. Altcoins are completely dependent upon the bitcoin and if this time bitcoins spikes then I’m sure that altcoins will spike too and we will see huge trains this time. I’m getting sense that bitcoin and altcoins patterns are following each other. Just check the CMC where you see exactly same graphs for the bitcoin and even for all alts too. It’s like it is one currency throughout and only the name is different.

[pitiflin]

So be it. Opportunities like this may occur once every blue moon but that doesn't such opportunities end here. People who have missed it may or may not have another chance. Fate may decide whether or not people will catch trains like this and get rich. And one more thing, people who don't like holding also get rich, trading is not opportunity and I believe instead of waiting forever for a dream price so that we will have a chance to get rich,its better to trade and get rich. Because time is money.

[Ayiranorea]

As mentioned in the Op's quote users have missed the opportunity to invest. We got the opportunity to invest on each and every altcoin, because price dropped low when price of bitcoin fell low. Now once again along with bitcoin the price of most of the altcoins were growing forward. So days back investing into any of the altcoin would have got good profit in a short time period.

[ohlawdy]

It is very easy to look at things like that in hindsight.
The problem even if you owned a significant amount of it , you never know how long you would have held it.
So best is to look for new opportunity's because i am pretty sure they are here.

[ggg123]

Lol, this is kinda sad but still none of us wouldn’t know the possibilities.. even i know that i’ve missed lots of trains i don’t wanna blame myself for this

It’s hard to find a diamond in the rough. I remember buying Etherium for about $1 and selling for about $1.30 a few years back. I made profit but I had no idea it would reach $1000 and beyond.

I feel like I did well with Iota by buying in September for less than $1 each. I hadn’t even heard of it until last summer.

Another problem with getting coins really early is that not many exchanges will be selling it so their hard to get and no one knows if they will be worth anything.

[BossMacko]

To be honest i only focused in Bitcoin never had the chance to invest in alt currencies, but right now with the list that i saw here i am very eager now to find crypto that will make me profit. Hopefully i get to see a crypto that worth investing in the future. Anyone here can provide new list that can sky rocket in the future?

Just make sure that you're on board the right train, and that is going in the direction to where you want to go. And hopefully get there safe  and sound.

[Bezobraznike]

And there are going to be a lot of trains ahead.

   Even those alt-coins mentioned in opening post can rise more.
Some of them are still under a dollar, or couple dollars. Buying them
now for that price and keeping them is a good thing, they can worth
hundrends of dollars in that time.
-Nxt (NXT)        $0,209318 USD
-IOTA (MIOTA)   $2,02 USD
   And there are so many new ICO`s that now costs just cent`s per
token. This tokens can worth a lot one day too.
   Bottom line is that tere are going to be a lot of trains ahead. If we
missed some that is alright, do not miss other trains, learn from your
mistakes.

It is easy to miss the train when there are too many coins/tokens popping out every day that it becomes quite difficult to do a research on all and spot the golden ones. Also not every one has the resources to invest in virtually every coin/token that looks promising at each research done.

You literally miss the train for nit having investing in promising alts. It's still the good time to buy some like cardano, tron and iota. These coins are in the top in coinmarketcap, I hold some of these and waiting for its mooning
