Five reasons 2018 could be the best year yet for cryptocurrencies.

[esetop01tryba]

Unfortunately last year was much better but not yet over so no need to panic, there is still a huge chance that the year ended with the growth of the price of the cryptocurrency !

No this year was terrible, a real test of survival. Next year will be a banger for crypto!!!

More legitimate ICOs ? Are you sure? It seems to me that number of scam ICOs is just growing and I don't see any reasons showing another side and claiming OP words. As for other reasons, I am agree with most of them. Regulation can cause coming of institutional investors. Those guys with big money will never invest in crypto prior to ETF adoption. But once it happens, big money flow into crypto market.
I also disagree with year, in 2018 all of these cases won't happen and probably 2019 will perform better results

Security ICO's will be big as well. Having a stake in the actual business and receiving dividends will be an improvement on things.

Hosp has explained before why a potential cryptocurrency bubble could burst in 2018, but there are several factors that make him see upside potential in the space.

For bitcoin, the most important cryptocurrency by his estimation, he sees a 150 percent potential upside for 2018.

Taking into account several factors, the cryptocurrency market's upside potential could rise to up to seven or eight times present levels, he says.

1. The work on scaling issues
2. Large scale and more legitimate ICOs
3. Regulation
4. A lot of execution and usability
5. Institutional investors

I think this is reasonable.

The third point that you bring about regulation is something that I disagree completely, people want regulation because they want the protection of the government so they avoid losing money, but the market of cryptocurrencies is based on the fact that you are completely responsible for everything that happens to your coins and if you cannot take care of them then it is your fault.

I have a good feeling about the future of BTC and ETH. It does not boom like last year, but it's growing step by step steadily. Looking forward to the rest of 2018, Crypto will make a big breakthrough in 2017.

I think there is a possibility that people will remember 2018 as a good year, the prices came down to reasonable levels and there are a lot of positive things going on behind the scene. I have more confidence in crypto than last year when most was speculation. Now the projects are being built and plenty of good ones undervalued.

[lingwistiko]

I don't think that this year is the best year for cryptocurrencies because it's actually almost a year now that the market is down and we're already in the last quarter of the year and cryptos are rising up so slowly.

[cluit]

Maybe 2019 will be better, so far 2018 has not been the best year in any case not price, not volume, not user count. People have been getting away from bitcoin and all crypto together thinking the price has been going low constantly and the stagnancy of the price after the drop has not have been recovering and that's not helping as well.

2018 was the year bitcoin and all crypto just stands still and waits, waits for something to happen so it can get to a bigger movement yet it is not. Good part is the "drop" is not too much, even tho we are in a bear market the price is still high compared to what it used to be except december.

I think that the real reason Bitcoin and blockchain were created was so that the people could have real financial freedom. Yes, the governments will do what they have always done. The people have always had the power however we all need to come together and say NO MORE CONTROL over our lives. As long as the people use cryptos p2p and not government cryptos and exchangers then we will be in control. Remember that's why Bitcoin was created after 2008 crises.

Right, if the first half of this year was the time of the deepest bloodbath, the second part of 2018 has turned into a period of the longest cryptos stagnation.

Well, see it as you may want to see it but in the actual sense, not everything about the market is all about the price only. Have you taken your time to consider the development we have seen in the cryptocurrency space so far? Have you taken your time to read the news to see how countries are really beginning to see how they can adopt it? Are you seeing how banks and government are really trying not to be left out? Are you also seeing the same people who have been attacking the crypto space, investing hugely into the space based on creating tools for the cryptocurrency space? All these things are gearing up for mainstream adoption and those who are smart will see this moment as an opportunity to accumulate.

[kolsernik]

To raise the potential for cryptocurrency growth, we need to create demand.Only then we can talk about scalability and ultimately increase the price.I do not think that the price will change depending on the regulation of the cryptocurrency.If they regulate cryptocurrencies, then the slag and garbage will simply be eliminated.Other respectable people are ready to work with cryptocurrencies legally.

This is a year of transition, the last year was obviously the year of a great bull market and after such a year it is impossible to have another one like it that soon, this is something that applies not only to cryptocurrencies but to any other market, so it's completing natural that the price action in this market has been a lot lower than it was in the previous year.

[Harrisonimo]

I do agree as regards the increase being reciprocal to functionality and usability of the altcoins. I strongly believe that when this comes to full play, then the resultant price of the respective tokens will also increase.

1993jochico is very optimistic guy.

if today he think like his post in early year.


2018 is not best year like 2017 maybe 2019 is not better than 2018 too.

[andika2018]

2018 untill now, not too good for investor. Most coin drop the value more than 90% from highest price. Market cap value decrease from $800billions to $200billions. Its not good year for cryptomarket but i do believe cryptomarket will recover again maybe in 2019

Maybe, we will not see such a great hype around these cryptocurrencies which we had in 2017 but it does not make me sad. It gives me the confidence that I can work with the cryptos calmly and get my stable profit.

[yvesp110]

2018 is about to end and the crypto market is still volatile. I think only in 2017 it was the glorious period of cryptocurrency and bitcoin.

There is no doubt 2017 was really an amazing year for bitcoin, but the one thing is we cannot say that any specific year will be the only year for bitcoin, it use to grow even bigger day by day, last year bitcoin got to increase at the end and we are expecting the same for 2018 as well, so I am sure price will recover once again up to high extent, trust me you will regret your words at the end of 2018.

[valnd]

If I had read this post back in Feb when it was posted, I will totally agree with it, but since i am reading it on the 10th month, I don't think I will believe it anymore, and I think this is a clear reverse of the post, the beginning of this brought so much hope in cryptos space, but currently the hope is fasting fading away, I think we still have chance if bitcoin ETF will be approved before this year runs out, if not, many will not forget this year in the history of cryptos.
