2018 is not a very prosperous year for cryptocurrency

[guillot1ne]

In my opinion, the 2018 was so afull for cryptocurrency. But it made a good start for cheep perspective investment and rich more in future.

To begin with, it is too early to judge and draw any conclusions. The year is not over yet, and what it will bring to us ahead is a surprise. Good surprise.

We are almost at the end of this year and we can only hope in a pump but realistically we will are not going near the ATH or to 50-100k some "advisors" predicted on 2017.

A cryptocurrency can not always be all stable and successful. She herself has no such opportunity. And we coming to the cryptocurrency world should understand this. Corrections, recessions and rises, it will all be uninterrupted.

We have not finished the year yet so it's too early to sway that the price does not have a chance.

It is just start of the last quarter of this year alone so we can not said yet that it is not a prosperous year of crypto. There's have been two months more that market can recover. Manipulation i don't think so, because it happen that we can say that market is ups and down from January 2018 up to now but looking back last year how high market was, that's why we are expected much more on it but the reality is market is still good and strong.

[1cak]

many are stuck with unreasonable increases in early 2018, and after that the price continues to decline until now, it may be lower than what happened in 2017

[ivanklich]

This is a very bad year for cryptocurrencies. It is bad not only for the market, but also for ICOs. I think that manipulation is present, but it was last year too. I hope that next year things will be better.

[Magiklair]

I think that this year will end with some positive news. To my mind, it is better to expect something good because the market is going to recover in the nearest future. To my mind, we need to wait patiently

[ttking]

I think we can't say so because it hasn't finished yet and there is till some time for the market to recover. I hope that this happen soon because I am going to earn good profit on coins I have

By seeing the first month Of 2018, We thought this year gonna be huge for every crypto involves! But We proved the wrong month by month! 2018 is not really a prosperous year, but this year taught us a lot of things about the crypto market! People got patience experience, fudders realized their Fudd just worthless, scam, spammer learned a lesson to not do it again! People know when to sell when to buy and so on! So, overall we can tell this year a glorious year too! 

[Rostock]

I also think that 2018 is one of the most terrible periods for cryptocurrencies. I doubt that this year the cryptocurrency market will be able to recover and start growing again, if this happens, it is likely to happen on the night of December 31 to January 1, as a gift from Santa Claus.

[Lilmon]

Like most, I think there is manipulation, but I also think that the investors who decided to put their money in December did not endure so many losses and preferred to withdraw, that's why the market is so low this year, it is necessary to realize that such a high rise in such a short time was practically unreal.

Where do you get the whisper if investors decide to put their money in December? I am personally still not sure if an increase will occur at the end of the year. This belief will indeed make you optimistic, but too much hope will make you disappointed if that hope does not materialize. So just wait and be patient to see the next increase.

[Awoben]

Contrary to expectations, 2018 has been a year of corrections from all the pumps late 2017. Crazy things do happen in Crypto though, we might wake up and suddenly see a bull run.
We all have to wait and learn the patient part of the market if you are stuck on some coins.

[jamids]

I agree. 2018 is the year were crypto is being tested and shown that anything can happen regardleas pf how famous a coin can be. Just like what happened on Ethereum , no coins is ever safe on markdowns. It can also be a year of comeback if Ethereum will be able to recover from the low price. I also want to mention about the failed ICO's. Although there are no stats yet, I think 2018 has the most failed ICO's.

Yes, there are many failed ICOs this year not because they lack marketing strategy but because some investors are just losing their interest in cryptocuurrency due to the bear market. It's been ten months and still bitcoin has not even reach half of its all time high price. This year opened the eyes of those who joined cryptocurrency for quick profits to think and have a strategy so that they can still recover their losses even if it has been a wild ride.

[Kristina3456]

Manipulation certainly exists in today's market. But this cannot be a permanent phenomenon. After a while, the bullish market will come again and prices will jump up. at least I want to believe that this time will come very soon

[fianaindriati]

I think we can't say so because it hasn't finished yet and there is till some time for the market to recover. I hope that this happen soon because I am going to earn good profit on coins I have

indeed we cannot conclude everything directly. because the trip in 2018 is still so long and it's difficult to predict the increase.

Hey guys, I just wanted to share. I've observed and read many articles too regarding this topic and I would like to hear your opinion regarding this. Do you think that the cryptocurrency market is on a downward trend? Would altcoins be following this trend as well? Since Jan 2018, the market of crypto had been moving up and down way too much in a very short period of time. Do you think it is possible for an entity to manipulate the market so big?

Indeed it seems to be not as good as last year. Continuous dumps dominated this year's crypto market. The market value of most cryptos fell down at their worst which caused huge profit loss at this moment. Holding therefore is the best thing to do and desoite of lack of assurance on when will the increase happen, patience should be put first.

[KRAUSS]
