90% of the things you read online on the forums is pure garbage because most of those who are saying them are altcoin bag holders losing money and those who understand how the market works don't feel the need to talk about it that much.
the year 2018 will be the best for the cryptocurrency, but then the whole year we saw a fall and all people in a panic were selling their crypto.
2018 WAS the best year for altcoins BECAUSE of the dumps!
those prices that the altcoins reached in 2017 was bubbles due to pumps so they were fake and unhealthy and needed to come down. and the dumps meant the market was becoming healthier again so it was a good year.
Everyone says that now there will be an update of Ethereum and we will again see a million dollars for one ETH.
ever since ICOs started dying, ETH is having a lot of problems keeping its price up because the ICO scams was the only reason it even existed.
Firstly, I believe that all hard forks and upgrades will only hurt the price of Ethereum and this year we will see an ETH of $ 50 each. I'm not saying that this is a bad coin, but its price will be low.
it is a shitcoin but it won't go to $50 this soon. it has gotten dumped nearly 90% and the pumpers are ready and hungry for a pump. it will be pumped then the next dumping stage we will see $50 and lower.
The launch of a Bakkt will not affect at the price of the Bitcoin or the capitalization of the entire market, not now.
the "capitalization" of the entire market ONLY depends on how many shitcoins with how much token supply is being created. 2017 proved that when there is at least 10 new shitcoins being created every week the market cap goes up fast.
that is why market cap is considered fake.
I think that we should wait for a clear regulation of the market and only after that we can hope that the bear market will weaken and we will see the arrival of the bulls.
there is no bear-bull market when it comes to altcoins. there is only pump-dump market.
