Aren't we killing the market ourselves?

[jpnl0005]

That's a clear case of shooting yourself in the leg cause the complains are everywhere and they are same people saying the market is down yet they dump which is very bad

[kzozenberg]

I equate that with the fear of loss and panic in the market, smart people buy and stupid people sell, in my opinion. The market will not always fall if you are in a drawdown, it is better to buy coins than to lose money by fixing losses.

[Golftech]

there are few investor and the lack of demand make the price drop. when price drops there are always that panic as a result they sell there coins and others will follow.

Common misconceptions of those who so called investors, they always follow news and that results to a certain directions, when the market is pumping more fomo's are investing money and when the market fells fuds will show up and shaken weak holders to sell out, the problem will just continue until
another pumped showed up and repeat itself.

Fraud ICOs are killing the market. People are tired of loses and nobody wants to invest in something, because this year was very unprofitable. I think we need to wait for the better market situation to see the better picture.

Most people are here complaining about the dip in crypto and asking when the market is going to recover, yet they are the same people busily dumping all their holdings hard on exchanges. Who should continue holding and stabilize the market for you? Don't be a selfish investor.

Crypto has always been about free market with supply and demand determining the price. If you believe in some project or product just be happy you can get a good price right now because people act like sheep.

In any market, some people hold their investment and some people selling their investment and its uninviteable. Anybody have their own decision and thats why market always fluctuating. If supply and demand equal, i think market price will stable but we know that in this bear market, most people panic and selling their coin at cheap price.

That is for sure! Basic truth is that as we have two sides to the market which is the bullish and the bearish face, whereas we also have different categories of people in the market, which includes those who are busy selling at loss, those who are packing at the bottom and accumulating as much as possible, those who have been able to sell at the peak and now looking for a right moment to buy the bottom, and then those who are simply waiting patiently and holding to the future and possible long term increase in value. We cannot kill a market that has great value, but one thing is that our own actions will depict whether we are killing our own future in the market or not.

People that are investing in fraud projects and hunters that are promoting such projects are also responsible for the current market situation. It is too difficult to investigate a project? They are just too lazy to check the project before investing.

as well as many bounty hunters do not analyze the projects. they don’t even upset for their time spent on scam advertising

I think the decline in cryptocurrencies is closely related to everyone, because each of us has a different amount of crypto, but we all choose to sell them to protect our own interests!

[tosmartak]

Haha, so true. Everyone giving messages of HODL and yet market keeps going down. That just means people want others to HODL, so they themselves can cash out.

Many people are hodling their coins but not to that point of taking so long sometime it need more effort and patience. Most of them weren't able to survive and given up the commitment due to need of money even though they're losing much. However when price started to recover back, buying back is the other options for them.

Well, one thing for those who have been holding their coins is simply based on the fact that they do not have any other choice anymore than to just hold, knowing that to be selling now is not even the point for anyone who is smart. One way or the other, we will always get to have people who end up panicking for no reason at all, and then people who are smart enough to see the market right now as an opportunity. It happens in every market, so one way, I would not say people are responsible for killing the market, but the truth is that people are basically responsible for killing their own pockets if they sell at loss in the long run.

It is a domino effect, and it's human instinct to save whatever you can save, especially when the trend keeps on, only die-hard investors who are comfortable even if they lose all their investment, but there are only a few people who are doing this and many people are selling their stocks even at 50% lost.

[baby222]

I think not everyone here is killing the marker. For example I am a long term investor and I encouraged all of my friends to not sell in times like this.

[RobotNIK]

Most people do not have so many assets to conduct a serious manipulation of the market, only those who work with a large number of coins have this opportunity!

[sh4dtechnr]

Like many, I was bought in January, when there was great excitement in the market. To sell for me now is meaningless - let it fall to zero if it comes to that, anyway, the loss is so huge now, there won't be much difference.   And, I think, for many the situation is the same. Honestly, I do not know how long this artificial lowering will last, but I think the bottom is very close. Need to buy now.

I think panic sellers are also responsible for the current market situation. They are making the situation even more worst. However, we cannot blame them, some people choose to cut their losses and buy the dip just to average their investment cost. If you have the capacity to hold, just hold.

Cryptocurrency works with the demand and supply principle so if we really want our tokens to have value, then the best thing to do is to hold and motivate others to also hold.

And shouldn't the market be stable even in such a situation? It turns out that now there is a real value of coins, and not overvalued due to demand. Then what kind of ideal market can we talk about when no one is engaged in improving their product, and is only waiting for recognition and high prices.

How does "holding" increase demand? It potentially only decreases supply. The fact is a lot of these coins and tokens, I'd say 90% of them, offer no real utility and only exist because from 2014-2017 crypto was the next big thing. They are ideas marketed to people looking to cash in on the whole crypto craze without any long-term goals or will to follow through with them.

Do not assume that this is what the market ended. I think there are people who like the market going down like last time. From there they (probably the organizers) are slowly buying into the BTC and altcoin they see potential

[TrezorMade]

We already killed this market, it will take a very long time to recover. Vitalik said that the 1000x days are over. I certainly disagree if bitcoin goes sub 1,000$ (unlikely) there will be more chances to have 1000x returns. The people who have bought massive amounts of bitcoin in the early days and are dumping, those are the people that are guilty. I believe that people who bought bitcoin in 2017-2018 are still holding.

Blame the fake holders from the early days. Most of the people in this forum have sold this year, the bitcointalk forum donation address has spend 8,000 BTC
I thought that this forum was made for true holders? LOL
