No just hold your ethereum and altcoins. You can buy bitcoin without selling your altcoins . There is solution for that or other better way if you have extra money you can buy bitcoin and you will earn more because you have bitcoin and altcoins.

what if he doesnt have any cash and he only got eth & alts on his wallet ? I bet it is safe to sell them and switch it all for btc because btc is more valueable than any other cryptos but if he loves his alts & eth and he doesnt wanted to sacrifies it just to obtain a btc , he can also work on this forum on sig campaigns or bounty campaigns  .  other online jobs like free lancing or faucets can also earn him a crypto  .

There is even a better 'solution'; dump your altcoins, buy Bitcoin, long or short whatever Bitmex allows you to long or short, and your profits will be paid out in Bitcoin.

Selling your ethereum for investing or buying bitcoin is one of the worst idea ever. As you can many people tend to buy now ethereum simply because of its new update that will happen in this month and one of the reason why they keep on buying ethereum is the new update of ethereum might be the reason to spike the price in the market.
Ethereum doubled in value from its lowest point. If you convert to Ethereum right now you are basically fomo buying around what could very well turn out to be near the peak. The main reason for the increase is that the price catched up to where the cut in block rewards is calculated in right now. People have had enough time to enter below $100 not that long ago, so accept being too late.

honestly, i wouldn't sell anything at this point---bitcoins or altcoins. anyone who waited this long has already seen the worst of it. selling now might not be the absolute bottom but it's highly likely you'll lose coins if you plan buy back (or miss the trade if you don't).

i prefer long term holds that i can "set and forget". i can't tell you how many coins i'd nearly forgot about that doubled, 10x'd or better. you won't get that trading on bitmex because you're paying swap interest or holding limited duration contracts, and you basically only have access to markets for the very top coins. my biggest gains in altcoins have always come from low caps that would never trade on bitmex until after most of the gains are gone.

i occasionally trade the pink sheets, particularly pot stocks, for the same reason.

for me it depends on yourself, selling and buying your own decisions, but if you sell your coins, I think that will also waste your profits, if you see market prices are less stable, and if buying bitcoin today is a positive decision .

God only knows what bitcoin would be worth today had the shitcoin holocaust not happened. Ethereum did unrepairable damage to crypto when the token ICOs flooded the scene. Everyone and their dogs were buying these stupid get rich quick tokens.

You want bitcoin to go up? Simple. Quit buying shitcoins. Buy btc and hodl.
This will not happen, people know the potential of bitcoin but they are not as willing to invest in it because they understand that it is more difficult for it to go through the explosive growth it went through years ago, so everyone is looking for the next bitcoin, even if you know that will never happen, as long as people believe that is a possibility then coins that do not bring anything to the market will keep on existing.

This thread is about a year late.

bingo. ethereum already dropped 80% against bitcoin and 94% against the dollar. some altcoins have bled out considerably worse than that, if you can believe it.

advising people to sell alt/BTC markets this late into the bear market is a lot like advising them to sell BTC/fiat. if you're desperate to preserve fiat value, go ahead and sell because we might grind lower. but there's a decent chance you'll be selling near the bottom and will never get the opportunity to get all your coins back.

It seems like you wrote a poem

crypto must be organized

I think you meant "bitcoin should be legalized"

bitcoin must be separated from eth and all coins


It should not be separated, why?

Look, satoshi created bitcoin for its reasons, but other people can also have their own reasons to create their altcoins, the point is that people must create altcoins that have a good purpose and that is used in the real world because it will do good to the world crypto. But what we see is that many altcoins do not leave the internet and are dependent on bitcoin

ico's Is the biggest fraud in Cryptocurrencies

Honestly, I do not understand how it is possible that many projects want to raise more than $ 100 million to create nonsense things and even being nonsense people have to invest in these nonsense ICOs.

How bitcoin rise  to 19600 usd per btc , last year?

Many people (including me) thought that the "experts" were right and bitcoin would rise to levels of $60,000 or more, so people bought too much bitcoin, after the Future Launch, people realized that there was no coming the lot of institutional money and people started the sale and that sale brought losses to many people and those same people sold with losses and left the crypto world. I did not even expect that someday I would see the price drop below $10,000

There are some coins that I am still hold and I will still sell my bitcoin for them. Bitcoin is making some progress in price but it will not make much profits like those coins that has good intentions and high market capitalization.

Ethereum is still looking like a good place to put your money into if you ask me. I mean hard fork increased the price a lot but we are still way below the 200 dollar levels it once stayed, if you believe bull is coming and bitcoin price will be going up than you must see that ethereum price will go up as well. If you think bitcoin is not going up than no point on switching back to it neither.

Moreover, if we consider the fact that while bitcoin was 6.5 thousand dollars the price of ethereum was 200 dollars, and right now price of bitcoin is about 4 thousand dollars (with 50%+ more to go for 6.5 thousand dollars) and ethereum price is around 150-160 levels than we can say if bitcoin can go back to 6.5 thousand dollar levels price of ethereum could be 300+ dollars easily instead of 200 like it used to be. I would say instead of a 50% gain from bitcoin it is better to gain x2 with ethereum.

People invest in altcoins with expectation that the price will jump and they will cash out their money at the moment and get good income from that. The points are only which coin and when the jump is going to be.

I also witness this one since the market are quiet huge now with bitcoin and its not that profitable because of the small pump. So if you are holding a good altcoins better to stay on hold and don’t just put it on one place. Bitcoin is good, but there is also some altcoins that can be more profitable.

This thread is about a year late.

it is never too late to right a wrong!

everybody makes mistakes but only those who learn from those mistakes are going to end up being successful. in this case only bag holders who stopped wasting their time hanging on to a dumping altcoin are going to be able to recover the big losses they have sustained over the past year due to being on the wrong side of the altcoin pump and dump scheme.

Weak hands have been complaining about missing out ever since bitcoin was $1 and never buy the dip.
Whales are those who keep buying the dip.

Right. Btc's been moving quite against where i'd want it to be and i don't think it's good to go all in at this point. Like trx right now. It's making considrable noise and has made good profits already for me.

Of course you are right, Crypto is still not used in a proper way like making transactions and buying stuffs. This is not happening in a regular basis and the main reason I do feel is most of the government is not in the favor of this which causes them a stir. Else the demand will be more for BTC.

Ordnung uber alles

Things are known to go wrong with Ethereum

As it happened before, it may happen again, a lifehack of sorts. Yesterday I tried to install Ethereum Wallet from Ethereum developers and it gave me a lot of pain in the ass. I couldn't even import an existing private key into it, wtf. So that thing about coming update should be scary for long-term Ethereum users given the shitty quality of the software Ethereum developers produce. The bottom line is that it may in fact be a good idea to sell your ethereums and buy some bitcoins before this upgrade proves to be consistent and bugfree

IT needs to be only your decision, but remember that it is better to buy BTC at these levels rather than even on 6,XkUSD or ETH on 300+USD.

No just hold your ethereum and altcoins. You can buy bitcoin without selling your altcoins . There is solution for that or other better way if you have extra money you can buy bitcoin and you will earn more because you have bitcoin and altcoins.

Only people who have a lot of fiat can buy bitcoin with new money but since most people are not that wealthy and are stuck in altcoins which they have bought quite expensive in the last bull run. I still do not think that this is time for selling and going in for bitcoin as BTC position is not good currency and it is testing support again and again.

What is the point of creating coins and then the last going without return?where is lot of coins for example (WeTrust /bch........... lot of coin in bittrex and poloniex and other exchange before some month)!!!!!!
How bitcoin rise  to 19600 usd per btc , last year?Did not you hear screams that bitcoin is the only legit investement and BTC Dominance
People must stop investing in eth and other coins , all funds of icos or coins of future must be turned into bitcoin
eth Is the head of all coins
what is the Beneficial from Curse coins ? who accept it?
If we take money  of icos and And invest in bitcoin Imagine!!!!!Must be maturity in the minds of traders
The currency of internet is bitcoin only
i think etf must approved for bitcoin only and soon
bitcoin does not need etf or bakkt for go up
etf and bakkt is a way for crash prices of bitcoin

Still they have time for doing it,you can convert your coins into bitcoin and wait for the next bull run to happen it will still increase the bitcoin to much new high level which can give profits in terms of USD or other fiat but if the altcoins didn't worth any then its already dead.
