How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

I was watching the Bitcoin price. It was holding over $3.7 then suddenly it started to fall and stopped at $3,570+ now it's around $3,610. I heard there will be dump soon may be this is it.

By the way I do not mind the price down though

It would be nice if price go down to $1,000. I have just created some orders on Binance to buy Bitcoin for $1,500, hope that price will hit my order.
But remember, price is not everything. Crypto will surely go back to its ATH.

[diouf67]

It's no dump. It's still within the same support and resistance bands that we've been in since hitting the low 3000s and bouncing back. Anything about 3500/3600 is nothing to worry about and anything below 4500 is nothing to get excited about.

[DeKingCrypto]

Honestly the dump for the past 10 hours has got me wondering what is happening, I really want to know what the cause of this wicked dumping today. God help us.

If you want stablecoins then buy stablecoins. You must take the high volatility risks and the risks of a full depreciation. "Our volatility is insane and our liquidity is a fucking illusion"

How? There is only one way to become free here - to become a whale
One should understand that if you are not creating your own game, you are playing somebody's others one. That's an obvious rule one should always remember.

[CryptoBuds]

It always so funny for me when during the bear market we have a small pump after a huge drop and everybody is excited, because "it looks like a market reversal". Here is my little advice - get in step by step and be very patient.

[gunhell16]

Some of the people or maybe most are not good in this community.
They always bark at fall, FUD is all around the community and everyone is getting panic.
We have seen more than a week rise and then a day of fall make them shout.

[bigcash2011]

I know such movements are very discouraging and disappointing for most of the crypto community but a small portion of the community is still making heaps of money from these crashes. Secondly i do not see any big negative event for this dump other than the etc attack that may have provoked the panic.

[Okity21]

The cryptocurrency market, as we see throughout its existence, shows the down then ups.
This is his state of constant variability, which is due to economic processes.
I do not think that in the near future the market, which showed a gradual rise will fall down.

Don't be disturbed by continuous market downtrend that has been the situation of the market since last year, hopefully things will turnaround for good. Many people have lost hope but when things change they will come back.

Noo..  
There must happen something improbable for bitcoin to hit 1k$. Like ban in EU, USA or some Asian giants like Japan, Korea..
Or total economical crash. Maybe will hit 2500, but not less.

[Esterklu]

Last days i had a feeling that dump will come, but i hoped it won't happened. We have to wait, because in bear market we are blaming whales because of dumps, but when bull market will come we will thank them for incredible pumps.

[Thanasis]

Make some buying orders on your exchanges for now,this year is not going to be much bearish like 2018,we will be seeing the better on the upcoming days so the early bump its just a silent before the storm.Make use of the condition well.

[5thFear]

You can't, it'll do it itself and it will do it when there will be alot of whales then the prices won't be controlled. The more the whales the better for the crypto world.

[el_lobo]

I was hoping that the time of the dump would finally be over and now the price is again going down.
Hopefully it will only be a shorter course break.
Crypto finally needs stable prices for a while, otherwise no one will soon trust crypto.

[wizardcrypto]

This is very bad to see the year begins with bearish trend this was exactly how the year 2018 began with non stop bearish trend. The best advice is hodler for a long time and think for another alternative source of income especially if you are not trading your crypto asset. But if you are trading you need to learn a different strategies than what you use last year that resulted to lost of value in your portfolio. Hence trade and stop weeping for every bearish event you saw.

[Dellosoft]

I read this post and I started smiling because no matter what you do, even without manipulations, there must be green and red days for the crypto market. I'm aware that whales can actually cause a spike or downtrend in the overall market, but I don't think that's the case with regards today's market situation. Expect an uptrend soon. Today, Vitalik tweeted about people having mixed feelings on Constantinople, some don't even understand what hard forks are all about, afterwards weak hands started dumping ETH. I think the crypto space need more crypto education awareness, than price predictions.

[Invigorated]

It seems the panic hasn't died down as more people keep dumping their assets for fiat hence plunging the market even further. However, the truth is, there is going to be good days for the crypto market this year. People selling off their assets now are mostly likely to be selling off at a loss which could turn out to be a regrettable decision in the near future. The most important thing at this moment is to hold your portfolio and add potential coins to it, this way, you can be sure of a good recovery when things start looking positive.

[kramchers]

I hope this is not a dump that many people are afraid of.
I am thinking that this is the turn around and we are now on board.
It is not good to rise with out any form of space and we are making it now.
tomorrow might be good, lets hope for the best.

[edmundo]

It definitely seems that way and it isn't looking good. Ethereum showed some signs of recovery and we all thought things were beginning to take shape only for it to nosedive before even doing a major take off. It could be long before we truly see a major bull run and I guess at this time, only a proper enactment in terms of adoption can bring in that major boost. The most discouraging thing is that, Ethereum is dumping even before the hard fork, what then happens after the hard fuck?

[winstonchurchillwar]

I think this is a manipulation of the market that occurred due to the negative news background. In General, I think the negative news background is a fictitious event. When the market starts to grow there is good news as if it is beneficial to a group of people who bought at the bottom.

[deadthings]

Price drops are always sad for everyone. I think it is another attempt to make panic on the market. Until investors do not understand that this is just a temporary manipulation, whales will continue to shake cheap coins from their hands.

[sabine80]

yes, i think also, all here on bitcointalk find the new price drop not good. i thought the prices stabilized and then again this hard price drop. i am really sad.

I think this is just the end of the cryptocurrency market. He holds out his last strength. It will end soon. It is better to leave the cryptocurrency now.

[Christinebeauty]

The sudden fall of ETH just a day before Ethereum Classic Vision are going to distribute their tokens to ETH holders surprised me. I was thinking ETH was going to experience its higher price during this period

It is very sad to say the least. It happened just within 4 hours because I was constantly checking my coinmarket  cap app. Let's hope the market gets back to its feet again.

[gerjiss]

I think the dump's just getting started. The price of Bitcoin can fall to 2000 thousand dollars, but it is unlikely to fall to 1000 or 1500 thousand dollars. I think that most people here understood that this is inevitable and will happen soon.

[Samyalson]

Yes it's sad, but the main thing is I'm holding, and falls in the market won't change that.

Stay strong everyone.

[Tahdayi]

I think this is a manipulation of the market that occurred due to the negative news background. In General, I think the negative news background is a fictitious event. When the market starts to grow there is good news as if it is beneficial to a group of people who bought at the bottom.

Well, at the moment there is no negative news , I guess just now the moment the cryptocurrency when there are no new big buyers because of this and fall

[AristoteI]

What happened today with Bitcoin and the rest of the market is quite a common thing and you shouldn’t react so sharply to it, in a week or two the price of Bitcoin will return to its place and the market will continue to grow too, so don’t panic and keep yourself in hand. Nothing terrible happened.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

The market is still in a volatile phase and has not yet recovered
The problem is that the lower the volume market the more whales will have effect
This is what really worries me
I hope that the BTC crosses the next line of resistance and then the next.

[Koobtcgal]

I perceive this dump to be the normal dumps we see prior to a hard fork. I am not surprised now but one must remember that it is easy to dump than to buy because you might not get in at this cheap price again. The same people who have dumped ETH by more than 8% in less than  a day can pump it without your notice an you will have to buy high now.

[BitDane]

It is normal for you to be sad. That is the reason why sometimes it is not advisable to monitor the market status daily unless you are training on a daily basis. We need to be very positive. I really feel that this will be a good year for all of us.

[batang_bitcoin]

We just can't, it's the reality and if you can't accept that fact you need to think again if you want to stay longer.

It's just a bit of dip that opens and gives more entry to a higher position for the upcoming investors. There are too many news that many big investors shall come in by next month. A big pump should be accompanied by a big dump so the economy will be balanced.

[bellamente]

Whales still continue to manipulate the market. Today's fall may be the best moment to buy cryptocurrency before the February decision of the SEC

[Ambers]

I would not be so serious about the fact that this has fallen today by only 15%, this happens very often and if every time you fix attention on it, you can go crazy, relax please - the market is continues to grow. I think that this year BTC will be twelve thousand dollars or even more higher.

[KryptoKai]

Can't avoid the manipulation, just need to see tomorrow how far down it has gone. I doubt it will go lower than $3700 as there is a lot of support there and even the manipulators don't want it to fall that low or it may not recover

[pixie85]

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

It's still above the bottom. I see no reason to worry. There can be many outcomes. We can go up from here or form a double bottom at 3200 and go up from there.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

The best way is not to part take in their schemes. Buy and hold. Only a small number of Bitcoins is being traded. The rest is held.

[motun01]

Price manipulation is still a reality of the crypto market and I see it continuing that way for some time until some regulations are introduced to protect investors against it.
The market hasn't found bottom yet and will still go lower if BTC breaks the $3.6k resistance level

You can say that again, I think nobody is expecting this, not even those so-called experts, but hey there is a good opportunity here if you are not afraid to buy the dip and sell it for profit later, I always have high hopes that market will get back again.

[qtronix]

Perhaps manipulation, or perhaps this is a sign that the market will recover soon. We'll never know until the time comes. So it is better now to accumulate good coins while the price is quite low.

but, as a good investors we must be ready for this conditions,
market always right my friend, i just believe this year we will see a green on price again my friend,, but doesn't mean we don't meet the red

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

I might agree with that market manipulation is a possibility of this sharp decline. Since altcoins' prices are dependent on bitcoin, ones bitcoin.has been dump, and so the prices of coins are greatly affected.

[bettercrypto]

It's no dump. It's still within the same support and resistance bands that we've been in since hitting the low 3000s and bouncing back. Anything about 3500/3600 is nothing to worry about and anything below 4500 is nothing to get excited about.

If the prices keep steady at that range of $3500 and $3600, you may be right that this is not a dump. Especially if the market recovers soon. Let's wait and see. But, if the prices continue to decline, something is manipulating the market again.

[Lpim01]

Perhaps manipulation, or perhaps this is a sign that the market will recover soon. We'll never know until the time comes. So it is better now to accumulate good coins while the price is quite low.

It is totally market condition and not manipulation. Indeed, whales will helping the market to rise but they can't do alone if there is no participation by investors. The market flows shows that crypto is truly a decentralized market and it could changes its direction anytime. Preparedness for everyone would be very important to avoid from bumping our head, and so we can easily adjust our self on time.  

[DAVETUN]

I believe the whales are the one manipulating the market, we get frustrated at times, but every dip give us opportunity to reinvest and increase our portfolio, sure 2019 will experience a bull run, thou not as high as 2017. We are here to develop a strong community for cryptocurrency.

[Plecet Bank]

Hardfork has occurred and affects all prices so the price of all coins collapses. We have to wait until the lowest price and then invest. I don't think of selling coins because this is very detrimental. It's better to be patient until the Hardfork Ethereum ends.

[bartusv]

We are still in the bearish market and there were holidays, plus Chinese new year coming, why would we expect a rising
market. It is normal that after a pump here is the dump again. And yes, the market is so small that it can be easily manipulated.

[Twinkledoe]

There will always be light at the end of the tunnel. I know, it's been very hard for us last year. But let's be optimistic for this year. And take advantage of the situation. I'm very much positive that bitcoin price will still go back.

Market seem looking correction but we are know that crypto is very high volatile. Hopely this market fluctuation just temporary and soon recover again. Hard to predict market movement in short term and thats why i am prefer holding my coin for long term and i think thats a good option

[tabas]

Don't think of yesterday as a said day. If you don't have come up with a plan during these times, you need to start your day refresh and think of a strategy on how you should engage with such unexpected situations. The market can't kicked out the whales or I mean us, they are also the ones who are pouring out the market into good days at the right time.

[akungagal]

i was also quite surprised to see the market situation, i think the crisis period has ended it turns out this still continues. i did not mind if there was a dump, because this would give me the opportunity to buy it at a low price.

but i hope this year the market will recover soon.

[glendall]

we as small investors can only go with the flow,
Today's bear market made me very surprised because it was so sudden,
when the market looks better, suddenly the market turns red.
hope it's finished soon

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Right now is indeed still not the maximum recovery time. It seems it's just begun to recovery. That way dropping sometimes is inevitable.
Just be patient until the market really recover for sure.

[rangnatht]

I am big supporter of crypto and blockchain technology but the things is keep going on the market is really bad for crypto community. 20% up and down within one hour in the terms of top crypto like eth and btc how new investors could invest in it. We should stop whales in the market. This things makes new investors worried to enter in crypto.

[itasannah]

Current market conditions for the price of coins immediately fall and certainly will cause panic again. As small traders, we must remain patient with the current conditions. I think it's better to set the strategy from the start and use this condition to buy coins at the lowest price.

[Omela44]

The prices are currently changing really fast. A few days ago the price went up and now down again. It is really scary how fast everything in the crypto area can change.

[Pffrt]

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

No way, they have the power of money. Lol.
Anyway, I think it's a slide correction and will be turn into green later today or tomorrow and will have a new resist and I amm hoping it would be $4500 for BTC. At this point, investing will be a little riskier though.

[sixexgames]

I'll wait and see how things develop. Hopefully we'll have a swift rebound from this dump tomorrow. If things continue on this path I'll start to get depressed about our prospects again.

[adterna]

Actually it is difficult to release crypto from the whale's hand, what we can do is just follow the flow, because to compete with investors with very large funds is not possible, the path we follow by waiting for a certain moment might reduce losses in trading.

[Leonard2016]

Actually you can't control anybody else but yourself, this market is cruel and it has no mercy, always put stop loss and if you can't watch the market for a period of time I suggest that you stay on usdt, lavarage players are smart and they know how to manipulate the market, that's why I say trading is not suggested for newbies.

Cause with a huge amount of fund, the market will be totally manipulable.

Almost people has been cheated by temporary green signals recent days. Downtrend situation still exist and it may last until the end of this year

[PDAngel]

You cannot fully predict how the market will move, you are only guessing that crypto price is on its way of glory.
This is what you need to avoid if you want to continue living and earning profit in crypto currencies.

Learn to have patience, it is not a problem if your guess is not correct. The main thing is you are still holding your assets, as long as you will not sell your assets then you are not losing any amount.
You can wait for the right time when to sell it once the market will recover as it will surely recover therefore you need to be patient.

[fuer44]

yes, this is just a whales lure. I will focus on Ether first. for a week etherum rose well to $ 130- $ 140 and made people's interest in buying even greater so that the market cap beat the ripple, then the peak reached $ 150 yesterday. but it was indeed a trap and bullshit, when it started pumping and hoping for a bull run, it turned out that Ether dropped back to $ 130 and the market cap dropped and lost to the ripple. early 2019, still a trend dump.

Yea yesterday crypto dump unfortunately about 10-11%. Its very sad to all and I did not find the reason yet.I think it will dump more like below 3000$ before start a bull run in the future.Hope will be good 2019 for all crypto holder.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

For me, it is ok to have a dump today and afterward a long bull run, let's see what is going to happen after the fork, but there's no guaranty that Eth's price will spike.

[mbah]

This is the price movements beyond prediction. While many people wait will be increasing because crypto fork, but it is precisely this fall at a time when many are entered. suspected indeed market like no other and mocked the Whales to be the cause in this case. I think there is still hope for the increase happens if want to wait until the right fork to occur.

[glasbren]

Cryptocurrency is a fully manipulate  space, it could easily get manipulated especially from everyone who has a huge amount of investment in it.
And we don't have any control toward those who has many amount of investment.

[bakermaker123]

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

I guess what we should do is go with the flow. Just sell when you have a profit and buy if you think you wil have a profit. That simple. But ofcourse, you should make your research first.

[mahilchii]

Once again the horror story continues, the market is crashing very bad again. A lot of them were waiting to see a pump as hard fork is suppose to happen today, but things have worsen now change is needed. Guys don't sell in panic wait till the market improves.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

When did you come and start investing? I hope you are not new here. 2018 has given each investor cryptocurrency a lot of learning, I mean a continuous drop in prices until the end of the story, I guess you should be familiar with it. You can rotate your brain so that you don't always focus on the condition of the cryptocurrency price, especially bitcoin, because in the end your investment will just break. Try to look at the other side like the cryptocurrency function because it will make you comfortable.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

No, basically having much more investment in crypto gains power, we do not have control as we are just small investors. Whales on the other hand are much more having capability to manipulate the market and we have nothing to do with it.

Downtrend is going on, it's sad, but time for bull run is not become yet. I think it is too early and need to wait more time, about until the end of this year.

[Caladonian]

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Hope that's easy to answer, freeing the market in the hands of whales is hard to achieved since they knew how things work around and how to play against the emotional stress of weak holders, what we need here is the trust and full knowledge about this industry before you go all in or you give up and stay away from the market.

[Kryten12]

The standard advice for all investments is that nothing goes up in a straight line. You should expect there to be pullbacks after all gains as this is how traders make their profits. Bitcoin rose from $3,300 to over $4,000 so it is natural to see it give back some ground before the next leg up.

[florac9]

Some one argued with me saying 4000$ will be the lowest this year ,I'm sure he is seeing the price now ,cryptocurrency is so unpredictable and anything can happen,no matter how much dumpers dump it will always recover

Well i agree on that. I believe that the we need to to be more smart and play with the whales. Because there is nothing we can do now, of we didn't wanted to loss we must be patience and be more temperate in the market situation or maybe condition. Because crypto market is always pump and dump spending on the market or investors on the feild. I think huge dip will continue so let us be more patience.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Don't be disturbed by continuous market downtrend that has been the situation of the market since last year, hopefully things will turnaround for good. Many people have lost hope but when things change they will come back.

From the first days of this year, the cryptocurrency market cannot rise sharply in the way many want it to. It will still fall for some time and rise in price anyway. Therefore, I do not see anything unusual in the fact that the cryptocurrency is now falling in price. Of course, just before the improvements in ethereum, seeing how it falls in price is not very pleasant.

[amaterazu]

Market conditions make many people disappointed because the price of coins continues to decline. From the beginning of the year, it was actually very good because the market was in a positive trend. Even though the price is still very low and now the market is falling again.

[Svelto]

Bitcoin price will surely go up and down, a 10% move is still not so bad. Let’s be calm and monitor the market further. If you are holding for the long term, then don’t be bothered about dips.

[zauna35]

Yes, the market is red, I was expecting it, I think that Bitcoin will fall very deeply ... you can buy it cheap)

[memecoin]

Honestly the dump for the past 10 hours has got me wondering what is happening, I really want to know what the cause of this wicked dumping today. God help us.

That may be due to part of the volatility from the cyprto market impacting their prices, causing inexperienced investors to be panicked and dumped to save them. I saw they were involved in crypto at the wrong time 

[ethereumhunter]

Bitcoin price will surely go up and down, a 10% move is still not so bad. Let’s be calm and monitor the market further. If you are holding for the long term, then don’t be bothered about dips.

But the problem, when bitcoin goes down, altcoin will surely follow down too and sometimes it down too deep, and it's not to go up when bitcoin price gets up. Many people are frustrated now because they are making another loss and they hope the market can recover soon. I am sure bitcoin will go up again this year although I could still hold while waiting for the price. But I think I will buy more bitcoin if the price can go down too deep because that is my only chance to prepare for the rise of the cryptocurrency in the future.

[qomariah95]

If we play in the long run it is certainly not a problem now, but what about those who play run hit by looking for a little profit every day. I also believe the price of bitcoin will go up and down now.

[leetcoiner]

Honestly the dump for the past 10 hours has got me wondering what is happening, I really want to know what the cause of this wicked dumping today. God help us.

That may be due to part of the volatility from the cyprto market impacting their prices, causing inexperienced investors to be panicked and dumped to save them. I saw they were involved in crypto at the wrong time 

Yes, the times are not easy for the participants of the cryptocurrency market. And perhaps this year some investors will come out of the market.

[avarnet]

Yes, the market is red, I was expecting it, I think that Bitcoin will fall very deeply ... you can buy it cheap)

if I'm alone this year I hope that bitcoin will quickly soar because there are already so many users and investors who feel sad because of the decline in the past year until now there is still no change. so my hope is that this year Bitcoin can experience a good change

[Ociwiw]

After all, you know perfectly well that this market is volatile, if you want more peace of mind, then most likely it is better to get stablecoins!

[leow]

I heard that yesterday's fall, caused by the news of the departure of Jihan Wu from Bitmain, lowered bitcoin quite strongly, and after him all the altcoins.  I think that the market will be able to quickly recover to previous levels

[Pithaxz]

yes the market situation is getting crazy, the price of coins on the market has declined again. I don't understand the cause until the price of the coin falls back. maybe it is true as you have said that the current price of coins is due to price manipulation in the market.

[bitcoinmar]

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Now if anyone answers this question, they have become billionaires because they can shorten the BTC when they know it dumps. But in terms of the current chart situation, Bitcoin is having a long red candle hitting the previous support zone and the next 3 candles are moving within a very narrow range, I think it will likely increase. prices in the near future

[VaLeRaaa]

Market conditions make many people disappointed because the price of coins continues to decline. From the beginning of the year, it was actually very good because the market was in a positive trend. Even though the price is still very low and now the market is falling again.

On December 15, the Bitcoin price dropped to a new yearly low at $3,122, following a two-week sell-off from mid-November.

The intense sell-off the cryptocurrency market occurred on January 10 has led the price of BTC to drop below the $3,600 mark, which may put an end to the corrective rally the market has been engaging in since December 17.
https://www.ccn.com/crypto-market-continues-intense-sell-off-bitcoin-price-en-route-to-yearly-low/

This article has interesting opinions. I think this seems to be true.

[erikoy]

Market conditions make many people disappointed because the price of coins continues to decline. From the beginning of the year, it was actually very good because the market was in a positive trend. Even though the price is still very low and now the market is falling again.

This will lead to lose interest on some of the people who join and invest in cryptocurrency. However, fluctuation is a good sign that cryptocurrency is still working. Eventually after some downtrends it will make another run and a good market price increase. There are reasons now why cryptocurrency made some fluctuation and that probably because of the latest hacks from ETC in an exchange.

[Bittalk12]

This is nothing new if there will be an incoming hardfork to be made from a popular altcoin like ethereum. The whales are on the move to manipulate the market and their goal is to bring down the ethereum price at its lowest price so that they can fill their bags for a free token after the hardfork. There are some exchanges that stops some whales if they detected unusual activity but overall, there is no way to stop these guys.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

First of all, you need to understand that this is the nature of the crypto market, and stop each time to fill up with growth and get lost if growth does not happen. Before the crypto market grows full, the market must go through many stages of recession.

Its not easy to predict.. hopefully this is the bottom of BTC for 2019 and start to drive the price up again.

[PlusOne88]

It happens most of the time, just don't worry that much I think it will go up again. Just do a lot of research to know better why such dump happens. If it is because too many are just holding their coins and trading it when high, then this is not good because certainly others will be doing just the same. But if this is because of some other reasons then this might just be the normal usage we have oftentimes experience since cryptocurrency had been established. Volality is a constant and a common thing. You really need not worry just set up a stop loss level.

[galya.crip]

Yes, it's time to get used to what is happening with the crypt now and the fact that everyone is waiting for growth is nice but now it is not possible.

If you can't fight it, just follow it. Why we not think like whales? even with lower capital than them, if they can make profit, we can follow it. It means we must know what they look like and what they do in market.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Cryptocurrency market is a free market, everyone can buy and sell Bitcoin or any other coin so the answer is no. No one can free crypto market from huge investors and not only in this market but all kinds of market (stocks, forex, etc...), there are whales that will always affects the market. Red days is a normal scenario and you have to accept the realty and be used to it. Of course there are people that will always take their profit when there is a certain amount of gains from the market, small or big investors have rights to make profits as long as the money that they are using is from legal activities.

[youcansee]

Yes, it's time to get used to what is happening with the crypt now and the fact that everyone is waiting for growth is nice but now it is not possible.

what makes it impossible? because in my opinion, whenever big investors will come we also never expect it, so everything is still uncertain. it could be faster or be very long time

[Trexmarket]

I completely agreed with you.

[nikola22]

why did you think that 2019 would start from the market recovery? there are no reasons for it so just relax and wait for ETF approving.

yes you are right, I think that makes sense especially for me who is not as good as those who can manipulate the market today. somehow must be able to survive even though this is not in the real world. at least with trading options while waiting for the market to recover is the way we can do it.

[meldrio1]

ye the market was down so much I don't know why this happen, I think because of upcoming ethereum fork? I remember bitcoin cash same happened when bitcoin cash forked.

[ihaveaquestion]

My feeling is that we tested the buying pressure on Tuesday and found it to be far weaker than expected, and that this problem remains. As a result upwards momentum is small compared to downwards. I would not expect a large move to the upside, unless the Asian markets decide this is the time to buy.

[IVEXO]

The truth is that the dump has always existed in 209 and t is no surprise

The recent pumps were not a surge but a brained, and that’s why traders and hodlers ha s to be smarter and have focal knowledge about whatever project they hodl

Let’s be smart and vigilant

If you can trace how things works with whales then you can tail them, but the saddest truth, it is really hard knowing what they are planning and what would be the fate of the market after, we don't have any trace what is really happening why there's such a pressure of more bearish than the bullish to run strong and start the pumped.

[Msworld83]

Why are you so worry about the dump as this is not the first and will not be the last , I see more dip coming this year and moving up will be this year too , though we do see market manipulation from whales and it both comes in pump and dump but I see many crying when we see a dump but happy and don't think pump also can be manipulate , why people so worry when dump and only want pump which is not right if I may ask? Once there is pump we should expect dump and vase on the chart we are still going more down.

Yes it was sad day because it back again to a dump price. But in this situation we should need to calm down and not being greedy to sell your altcoins to a low of price. But if we believe in crypto ill think we can hold our altcoins until it be back again, Holding is the best way for us to avoid selling low of price.

[TWW]

but now the best choice is only to hold the altcoin we have. if we sell it now, then we will lose, because we don't trust crypto. now we can trust crypto and choose to hold all the assets we have rather than we have to lose. we just need to be patient and wait for the situation to improve.

[bitcoin31]

Let's gives bitcoin more time there is no instant everything have progress and I think bitcoin need that too. I can see pumping will start soon so everyone will not give this time because if they are not give up in the year 2018 there is no reason for us to leave to bitcoin we need to be always be positive here in cryptoworld so we can pursuave other people to Invest and you can see the market rise.

exactly, earlier this year it was not very good for cryptocurrency but I still believe that this year will be a good year for cryptocurrency, because this year there is a lot of good news about cryptocurrency so we have to be patient waiting.

[rasulibragimavic]

I think it's just manipulation or a combination of circumstances which affect the psyche of people and they leave the market. I think you need to get in and not to pass if we believe in the market ! My personal opinion.

[incomefromcoins]

Market is still in correction mode so we are experiencing the downtrend in the market but soon bitcoin may cross 4000 dollars and get stabilised in 5000 dollars

[panjay]

I am not sure how we can get a free manipulation market though, but I think we will see more dump to come. I think mt.gov fund for covering the loss of customer fund will be released again? not so sure though.

[Sanford]

This is a game . Newbies are not welcome here. Whales simply control the ball and make huge profits. We do not like we can not change the situation. We can only create.

[xkatarinax]

I am really do not understand what is happening with the price. I thought that news about hard fork will hit the price. But for any reason it goes down

[bestpikka]

It seems the market conditions will recover not as fast as we expected, I think it will take a long time to be able to restore market conditions to a better one so I think people are patient and sure that will be the winner.

[TrevorS]

This is not like a dump, rather small manipulations, a real dump will start after hard forks, or a strong turn of the market is waiting for us in a positive direction.

[andor.gellenhidi]

Dump really started to happen and we see how many whales begin to work manipulatively, which today have the opportunity to work with cryptocurrencies. You understand that these are obvious facts?

This is the usual the dumping of tokens, will that not always decreasing we still have to observe because we are in Q1 of this year and theres always chances for bounce back. Leta just hodl and continue to observe the market movement.

[Oceat]

I am not sure how we can get a free manipulation market though, but I think we will see more dump to come. I think mt.gov fund for covering the loss of customer fund will be released again? not so sure though.

We can be free only if it is our coins though it is impossible to happen due to a lot of factors. Anyway, we can't really get a free manipulation in every aspect of life once we are on the bottom of them. Expect more dumps to happen because bear market is not yet done, this is just the start before we see the bull market to happen.

[gendang_cinta]

This is not like a dump, rather small manipulations, a real dump will start after hard forks, or a strong turn of the market is waiting for us in a positive direction.

I believe that because the dump on the market is something that many people have been waiting for and with that decline will increase purchases and the market will react to that until the bull market is coming.

[xuv500]

Current market conditions for the price of coins immediately fall and certainly will cause panic again. As small traders, we must remain patient with the current conditions. I think it's better to set the strategy from the start and use this condition to buy coins at the lowest price.

That's right as a small Investors we need to remain patient but how about buying coins??? What If every small investor are facing Difficulty without money? Yes that's a wonderful plan that buying according to the strategy is agreed. But we need to think about others as well.

[none of us]

these strong price changes on the crypto market are increasingly unsettling me. i am starting to wonder if the crypto market is right for me.

[puremage111]

Damn didn't expect price to be dump back because of upcoming Bakkt launch

Hmmm, Bitcoin need to hold for some time else i believe it will drop again

[Animunie]

I was sudden shocked the other day when market started to dump while I was hoping that it will goes up more. A panic attitude on my part again. Anyway let's not lose our hope that crypto market will come back with good status soon. It's just normal for market the dump and pump.

[bangjoe]

bounty is indeed the best way to get coins because we don't have to spend money unlike trading, mining and investment
Even though we don't spend money, but we can get big profits but the problem is there are now a lot of scam bounty that make bounty hunters even more difficult to get coins and I hope all of this can be fixed soon

[dominos]

This is not like a dump, rather small manipulations, a real dump will start after hard forks, or a strong turn of the market is waiting for us in a positive direction.

Look, there is no volume in the cryptocurrency market if you have bigger money you can make such big green/yellow candles due to derivatives markets, that's the real reason.

Welcome to crypto!
After a few days on the green, always expect that the market will turn red especially that there's no major news or even like ETF or Bakkt that will trigger another upward trend.

[Cryptrx]

The things that happen in crypto are far bigger than most of us can comprehend. It's shocking how within seconds the whole market falls drastically as if it is a coordinated attack.

Whales still cannot keep the cryptocurrency market stagnant for a very long time. Otherwise they will incur heavy losses. Therefore, we should be patient and expect a rise in the cryptocurrency market. He will in any case. In the meantime, we better prepare for its growth.

Dude, the market dump started a year ago. The only hope for recovery was in April 2018, but nothing happened ... And I am sure that the fall process will not end in the near future. There are no indicators that would suggest otherwise. We will have to wait a very long time.

Of course, when the prices on the market go down, this is not encouraging, but to be honest, I didn’t even hope that the market would recover in the first months of the new year. At the moment, nothing has changed, and no one knows when the trade will change to the bull one and prices will rise.

[belli4388]

also according to me is the work of the whales this sharp descent in the market, i do not believe it is a solution to these market manipulations maybe we can maybe stem going out occasionally in stable coins

It's okay that we have a small dump today. Tomorrow it will return to price of 4k$ I hope. That's sad that I bought a few ETH for 150$ and now it's 127$.

[smoolae]

We had a nice time when it lasted . I really wouldn't call it a "The dump of 2019" though, it really wasn't so different from the dumps we had throughout the year 2018.  It's just the normal "some guy sold 20+ Bitcoins at once".

I don't see this dump as a great danger for rest of the year

[Luke NY]

In 2019 it began with a landfill, but this is not a reason to give up and is in a passive state. We must be patient, the rise of the market will surely come, we need to tune in on the upward movement.

[pedpedped101]

There will always be manipulations in the market and we cannot just stop them, because this is a decentralized system.
If you want to play along, then you must learn to do that.
Then even if you will be investing, be contented with little profit, else your whole investment might go down with it.
Those who are optimistic about this year are already planning, putting some things in place and doing what will makes things work for them in the crypto space.

[zabir.brutov]

It was very unpredictable that the market will dump. There were simply no signs for it. Moreover XRP has replaced Ethereum again and we should to do something about it, but unfortunately I have no idea what to do right now.

You thought right after the New Year everybody would rush to buy Bitcoin and Ethereum? I'm afraid the nearest 2-3 years will be false. Only experienced traders and manipulators will make a profit!

[2tang]

we are still not in the bullrun phase, we are still far from that because the market has experienced a long bearish period and at the end of the year the market starts to rise so people want to sell their coins directly because the prices have dropped, especially bitcoin and ethereum because they show an increase which is quite high so people will immediately think of selling while the price is improving, even if you have bitcoin, you will definitely do the same.
and because there are many people who do that, the market will turn red again

[novy]

It was very unpredictable that the market will dump. There were simply no signs for it. Moreover XRP has replaced Ethereum again and we should to do something about it, but unfortunately I have no idea what to do right now.

You are totally wrong, by technical analysis the dump was predicted by some experienced traders from tradingview service. It will one more dump wave to 3500 by BTC and then price will move to 4500 in a mid-term.

[maxilopez]

I am still sure that it is extremely early to start rising in price so early because the correction phase cannot last less than 2 years.

[newdevices]

Is this really market manipulation or just a decline due to the high sales volume on the market? the price has dropped now,
is it very difficult to experience a significant increase, when does the pump occur? can anyone help answer?

and i believe thats news will increase the demands on cryptocurrencies world
just be patient for your profit 

[bakulgarem]

indeed crypto is very difficult to predict now, sometimes we think it will rise this year but the reality is actually going down dramatically.

[dimastegar]

This is not a dump, only a big correction. Maybe the price will continue to fall and can rise even later. It is undeniable that many "whales" play in the crypto region. And we small traders can only go with the flow.

[simplelamp]

i dont know what is happening anymore, mixed feelings, crypto will not die. it just has to shake some ppl out and probably retest 3k. then we can talk moon.

[CryptoAlphaStar]

I really can't imagine another bigger dump after the one that happened in 2018. My prediction is we will be trading sideways and 2019 will be uneventful. 2020 is more likely to bring some price movements with the Bitcoin halving and events around it.

Yeah, we make some good speculation and yet the price dumps again. Try to buy ETH again to do some averaging and if the price dump again, analyze if you will buy more or not. This dump is still the result of last year trend so i think we can still see a good price this January, let’s all hope for the best.

I think there is no way to remove those whales investors, they had the fund power that we hadn't.
The only thing we can do is joining force together to pull up the crypto market even with just small amount of investment, but if we can do that together.
Then we won't need those whales investors anymore. That is what i think.

Well i believe that there are whales that controls the market based on bitcoin purchasing history and dumping history of big amount of bitcoin in crypto market exchange. I believe that ordinary investors can afford to buy or hold that biga amount of bitcoin on the market place. So whales is maybe still on its way to manipulating price. Thee only thing we can do for sue is to join them be smart and we need to joind them if they buy we also buy for sure there will be a great earnings soon.

[kipoel]

This is really sad, after all the rise that makes many people feeling happy about it, then someone just dump it again, making many people getting worried about what will happen next.

[Farahtenan]

This situation is indeed sad, it seems that crypto recovery is currently failing, and this must indeed be faced. The value of the bitcoin market capitalization has dropped and there must be an improvement, but no one can be free from the pope. This year it will look neutral and this decline is also temporary, we will see tomorrow for a better improvement even if only a little.

[lehnelora]

You have bought a coin with a high price and a price decline that is happening now, you don't do a seller. It's disappointing if you look at the market with falling conditions, but selling coins will not give you an advantage. It's better to save your coins because the market will definitely rise again.

[Alisha FR]

At present, Cryptocurrency is looking for a position to establish itself in the financial sector, the strongest reason, in my opinion, is about the new altcoins appearing, causing investors to move horizontally and glance at new tokens on the market, so the BItcoin Movement is slightly hampered, so the crypto market is not stable

[Pffrt]

It should not be your sad day just because market is being red. You know what everyone investing in traditional stock market or here in crypto should know how much risk is there. By the way, I think the red will go for 2-3 days and later it will be stable for 1 week and then it will turn into green for a minimum of 3x from the current value.

[needtor22]

I think right now I doubt that we will see any changes this year, even though I really want to be honest, but I still think that nothing shines for us this year.

I think your post is out of facts specially if you always visit some website like coinmarketcap.com and etc, cause if you really monitor the movement of the market...the 3x green is not true. Still the loss is much high percentage than the profit, more or less it will continue on this year.

[canaveralnonie]

I think right now I doubt that we will see any changes this year, even though I really want to be honest, but I still think that nothing shines for us this year.

Your prediction of continuous downfall is too early, this is just the first quarter of the year. Just like 2017, the bull run starts on the middle part of the 3rd quarter through the 4rth and last quarter of the year 2017 . If will be better if you stay tune, this will be a good year for crypto currency ( good positive aura is more appreciated than the bad one )… peace.

[partysaurus]

feels like we have one more year of bear market or side ways moving market to look forward to

[prororo]

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

we will not be able to be from the hands of whales they are very intelligent and they have power and also money it will be difficult to free themselves from them. what we can do is just wait for the price to rise again.

[nreal]

The market will go the way it chooses, People have been expecting a bull run in the beginning of 2019, regardless of whether the bear market has actually ended. According to many experts, it has not ended.

[MattyBversion3]

Remember... manipulation goes both ways.
No one was complaining when it ‘magically’ went to $20k... right?
It’s a marathon not a sprint.

If you believe then just have patience.
If you gambled, well, should’ve bet on red.
And if you actively trade short & long... you’re in heaven.

[ameliana]

The market will go the way it chooses, People have been expecting a bull run in the beginning of 2019, regardless of whether the bear market has actually ended. According to many experts, it has not ended.

I think that in early 2019 not only this month, I think the next 1 to 2 months will still be included in the early 2019 category so I think there are still many possibilities if the bear market ends earlier this year.

[Snaic]

It is still difficult to say what awaits cryptocurrency this year. It is hardly worth expecting an increase in the cryptocurrency market from the first days of the coming year. Such a slight fluctuation in the price of cryptocurrency does not mean anything. We still have hope for improvement this year. It’s still too early to be nervous.

[Krismanto]

Maybe market conditions are sad when prices fall. But it's different for some investors because they think it's time to buy coins. Bedagang will be more profitable, even though the profit obtained is only a little. The price of coins will increase again because this decline is temporary.

[mariogomer]

2019 will not be different from 2018. We were all hopeful for 2019, but the market is getting worse. The whales are waiting patiently and manipulating the market 

[icalical]

I really hope this is the last of the dump, and the end of the bearish market. Earlier this year, we see how the market cap recovering and the price also starting to go higher recently, but then some bad news regarding hacking, and other stuf come up and now crypto market are dumping again.

[Absolutep]

It is really so sad to see the price if coin go down just like that when we are hoping that the price will rise the more, I just hope people don't get frustrated and get out of crypto this time around.

[LUGHUL]

I think in 2019 there was a new beginning in cryptocurrency, a lot of positive news came to crypto like the launch of Bakkt on 24 January 2019 later. We just need to be patient until the time comes for crypto to blossom again.

[TheClownSong]

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Market looks not stable in early 2019. After drop for several months, i think what happen right now is correction. Hopely after this month, cryptocurrency market could recovery again. 2018 is not good year for crypto and hopely in 2019, we can gain profits from this market

[nemey]

Many people really hope that in the early year of 2019, the market starter will be brighter for all token holders, investors, traders, and also bounty hunters. But in fact, it has nothing to do. The market is still red and they are keeping dumping all the time. So, what should we do? Just wait little bit and never hope for bull-run these early month. Probably it will not happen in this year.

[GREENch]

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

While the whales are manipulating the market and earning millions, most enthusiastic float in the Wake and get your small gesheft. So it is necessary to change the angle of view on this situation.

[sky9314]

Don't care about whales. If you think that the future of crypto is bright, you only need to hold the coins that you think have potential. We can't stop the whales from controlling the market, and we can't reverse the market. The only thing we can do is wait.

[Enzo05]

Well for me its already normal and I know it will bounce back to $4000 again lets just wait for all crypto to recover 2019 will be exciting for crypto I am sure of that .

[TKarollah]

Well for me its already normal and I know it will bounce back to $4000 again lets just wait for all crypto to recover 2019 will be exciting for crypto I am sure of that .

yes it will definitely rise again and grow better, by 2019 it will be more interesting because there may be changes in the Cryptocurrency market. This year is expected to not be like 2018, whose value has dropped very long and hopefully this year the value will rise. This price increase is usually experienced in the market and it happens because of various things so that whatever happens hopefully you are always safe and rest assured there will be luck for us.

[jonaire99]

It is not yet certain if the whole crypto market will really go for bullrun this year but I hope it will be better than last year. Cryptocurrencies can't avoid these price declines because of their volatility, sensitivity and price manipulation by some big time investors or whales. Nobody know what will going to happen this year so we better prepare instead for any eventuality.

[billy.ryoko]

The crypto dump and bump is usually, you never know when the price dump or when will the price pump, I think I am gamble in the market, is not the investment in the market, if I can get my loss in the market, I never want to invest in the crypto again.

[likit123]

The first reason is that the market is now oversold, perhaps the strongest in the entire history of Bitcoin. The second and main reason for the fall of Bitcoin and cryptocurrency in general is the plan of the central banks of countries that want to discourage individuals from working with virtual money, which could pose a threat to fiat money.

[amos77978]

We might continue to see the bear this year... I'm yet to see any positive movement to make me think this year will be profitable for investors..

[magicrypto]

We can just watch that "big game" and adapt to it, many people are doing profit on that bearish market with trading for example, but of course we all want just to sitting and watching like everything is growing up lol

[Globen]

I do not really think there has been dump this year 2019, all i see is bitcoin at the support level, we are waiting for it to break or move to a higher level where it will meet anothe resistance  level. In a short time to come, there will be great movement up.

[raptorez]

DUMP started a long time ago. A whole year has passed. This is a huge pressure for people who are just entering cryptocurrency today because they will be millionaires, because it is they who now have the opportunity to do so.

[Emperor of Man]

Yes, unfortunately arrival of the new year is not supposed to solve this dilemma. Most probably a big part of 2019 would be sideways/bearish action too.

But patience is the greatest virtue of an investor/trader. I believe sometime during 2019 we will see some action. You just shouldn't expect it in the first days of the year. 

[mailklue]

if you are worried about the risk of loss due to fluctuations in the price of bitcoin, you can buy stable coins to get a lower profit or loss, all you have to do before investing is analyzing with small capital, when you are good at looking for profits, then investing with big capital.

[ethereumhunter]

It is sad to see the dump has started at the beginning of this year, but I still have optimistic to see the pump will come soon. Maybe we don't know when the time will arrive but one thing that we should remember that we still have time to try to buy and sell the coins. So we don't have to just wait for the time only, but we also have the opportunity to make a profit, and we don't waste our time waiting only.

Stop thinking that crypto currency are for making quick profit and getting rich over night. Once you get over this stereotypical thinking, all these ups and downs of the price will seem normal. Whenever the price drop, everyone keeps blaming the whales and their market manipulation. But when it starts to rise for the same exact reason, no one says a single word of those manipulation, rather enjoys the market being controlled.

[Elorika]

I do not think that now there will be another upward movement, the market is bearish and there was at least a double bottom, so I think that we can see even lower levels

The whales support the main cryptocurtrencies, invest in them, and do not let them vanish. The more money invested in the crypto, the greatest influence it has. Thus, these people can make the market stronger.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

You are in crypto investment, so you must be ready for it. Everything can happen in these crypto-sphere, one thing i've learned that crypto-currency thing is associated with risk and anytime we can lose our investment ,so we must applied extra pre-caution before we do our action. Just think about it "Invest only that you can afford to lose " thats simple to accept our losses if the case was happen.

[ifightformerkel]

This was expected, as the market was in correction after a long fall rather than growing. Not to be confused. So I think that the cryptocurrency market will decrease by another 30-40 percent before the growth.

[sandgluenick]

The market showed at the beginning of this year that it was not as we expected, almost not developing at all. what happened I did not really know clearly but the worst was that it was very difficult for us to find the right to invest properly and clearly.
a possible way to increase market prices is that Bitcoin pumps high prices because Bitcoin has the most influence.

[qwerty1337]

I think that the time for growth has not yet come, even despite such a good news fund, we see that volumes are growing, people are accumulating BTC, I think that growth is not far off, the main thing is not to miss it

[jvper]

So far the year mins are higher than 2018 mins, so we are going up.

[Harley29]

Well for me its already normal and I know it will bounce back to $4000 again lets just wait for all crypto to recover 2019 will be exciting for crypto I am sure of that .

Not only you but millions of people are really very excited because they invested their money. For me 2019 will be great year because I bought very low price coin almost 3000$  but the best one and the promissing one that’s why I am waiting impatiently to see how the coming pump will be after such huge dump last year.

[Osayo]

The whole Constantinople stuff is really killing the market. I no longer support all this crypto hard forks especially of major currencies. It always has negative impact on the market.

[hxtop]

When it compared with others, it can't be called as a dump. I saw a strong resistance to this slight fall and there also was a correction or recovery movement on the price. It is too early to decide which trend will dominate the crypto-maarket in 2019.

[royalfestus]

Contrary to most beliefs I expected a dump at the early part of the year (January) to the 4th month before we see fair pumps and profit for traders. Am not surprised because it has been the trend for few years. It is still above $3000 and does not call for any form of concerns, it will be side ways with insignificant dumps for a while.

[RomertL]

This was expected, as the market was in correction after a long fall rather than growing. Not to be confused. So I think that the cryptocurrency market will decrease by another 30-40 percent before the growth.

Yeah, I'm afraid you're right... Bitcoin will fall down to ~2700$ and than will slowly raise, really, really slowly.

[melomanskiy]

I am also saddened by this beginning of the year. Although I don’t know how much I would be happy if bitcoin suddenly fell to 1000$. Probably I would have thrown all my strength to buy the maximum amount of bitcoin for me.

[lotfipro]

Yes, we all waited this year and expected big growth. I think that we need to wait some time. Maybe it's typical fud from big whales of crypto market. THe dump will end soon!

[goodbuybitcoin]

I think that in 2019 the cryptocurrency market growth should begin. I do not want to believe that the market will go even lower.

[Inu.Guren]

we can see clearly about bitcoin and market condition in the middle or Q2 2019
like precious year ago bitcoin and market condition are seeing clearly on this date

[novy]

The end of the 2018 showed that crypto is receiving, but the second week of the 2019 we are again in trouble. If to see what was in 2014-2017 chart, we will fall more till the end of the 2019.

[dominos]

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

We'll never be free of whales.In any market,in raw materials,financial,cryptocurrency there are major players who determine the game. Unfortunately,we cannot guess where they will send the course tomorrow.Hope for the best...

Whales still cannot keep the cryptocurrency market stagnant for a very long time. Otherwise they will incur heavy losses. Therefore, we should be patient and expect a rise in the cryptocurrency market. He will in any case. In the meantime, we better prepare for its growth.

Yeah, but they can clearly hold cryptocurrency market stagnant for quite longer timeframe at least for a longer accumulation period (if there will be any - in future there will be proof of that on price charts). Always bigger amount of money was manipulating the market in this way or another, that's how financial world looks.

[blokklanc]

Until the market is small it will be always easily manipulated by the whales. When the market grows over $1 trillion then it will
be more difficult to manipulate it. Until that we cannot  do nothing against it.

[bettercrypto]

The whole Constantinople stuff is really killing the market. I no longer support all this crypto hard forks especially of major currencies. It always has negative impact on the market.

I beg to disagree. The Constantinopole hard fork of ethereum is not killing the market and will not. The downward trend might be the effect of bitcoin to the altcoins. Bitcoin went down and so with the others.

I know a lot of people may argue that there is no manipulation simply because it is a decentralized market, but whether we like it or not, there are a few people always manipulating the market prices to their favour.

[AdeySpadey]

prices are too high anyway, there is no real economy in cryptos,
just trading.
The real price should be a few dollars, so im happy at $3000
Instead of whining, we the community should be coming up with ways to create a real
economy, that will bring in the masses.
Then you'll see profit.
 

[Alucard2425]

Im still waiting for the bull run hopefully it will come but no worries when the dumping stops its bull run time

[zauna35]

I probably will repeat it, but this fall was expected and I think that we will fall even lower .. you do not worry, maybe not soon but the rise will be sure)

[pedagang2]

in my opinion we as small players, will not be able to change the market like the pope.
all we can do is wait for the right time and release the coins that we have a little.

I also experienced the same thing because I saw the development of market prices still had not increased, I was sad because the price of Bitcoin had still not recovered and made everyone disappointed with the current market price developments.

just a miracle that can free crypto from the whale's hands and manipulate the market, and we won't know when the price of Bitcoin will rise high.

I think that this is the month to accumulate more tokens while the price is low because it is pretty sure that the price of coins especially ethereum will surpass 300$ according to experts. Right now, I'm getting everything that I can because I do know that the price will go up somewhere this month or the next month.

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Too high ups and downs. I do not know now what to believe. The situation is very sad. It remains to be believed that after January the market is stabilizing.

[Turkish88]

Because nothing changed from 2018 year.
Cryptocurrencies still in that point which was in the middle of january last year, so no reasons to gain

[arifteguhr]

Right now, indeed, if we see such a big decline this year. in my opinion right now the right thing is to hold hold so that you can get big profits later. or we add our assets by making a purchase

[red4slash]

Right now, indeed, if we see such a big decline this year. in my opinion right now the right thing is to hold hold so that you can get big profits later. or we add our assets by making a purchase

must always be careful if you want to start an investment by buying crypto assets at a time like this. if you want a long-term investment, it is better to add assets, consequently the hold time will be quite long.

[starblocks]

There is not a real lot that can be done as the current demand for more speculative types of assets simply isn't as great as it was a year ago, which has resulted in less liquidity and more potential for volatility so you basically need to change your investment strategy if you're not gaining any benefits from it at present or just be patient and make smart buys if there's dips and then sell once the market goes up again

[Distinctin]

I'm more interested on when the pump will start, dump is not new anymore, we have seen it last year many times .
The reason we are here is because we want to see a pump, we feel that the price has already bottom and I hope that is true so it will stop the bleeding soon. The market has still a chance and it's important that people will start buying again, it will also help altcoins not just bitcoin alone.

Have you invested your earnings and saving for the coin you are holding, if you are then, you have a reason to feel sad, as always invest what you can afford to lose and you should ignore the market, if you don't want to feel depressed it could go on for a few more months.

[desticy]

In my opinion, the 2018 dump has not finished yet, it is still ongoing, the market is bearish, and current prices are kept artificially by stock bots, after the hard fork of Ethereum I expect a strong price drop.

[Classica35]

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

I am glad you know that the present backdrop in the market, is as a result of the the activities of manipulators and this might continue to be prolonged, except there is a big news, that first trigger the growth of btc, then, others will follow suit, but then we do not yet know when that will happen.
If you intend investing, even in btc, try to watch out to see if it will dump further and look for a suitable price to buy.

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

I think that from us now little that depends. Manipulation was and will always be and affect the situation, which now we, as small fish just can not. Do not worry, the moment will come and we will go up.

[dominos]

Because nothing changed from 2018 year.
Cryptocurrencies still in that point which was in the middle of january last year, so no reasons to gain

I can't agree, in your mind there is something like you feel the fundamentals of the whole cryptocurrency market are the same as a year ago but you're wrong and probably in a few months you will see how big mistake have you made, even with writing this.

[DenysM]

I'm more interested on when the pump will start, dump is not new anymore, we have seen it last year many times .
The reason we are here is because we want to see a pump, we feel that the price has already bottom and I hope that is true so it will stop the bleeding soon. The market has still a chance and it's important that people will start buying again, it will also help altcoins not just bitcoin alone.

The market is like a swing. An excess in one direction leads to an excess in the opposite. In the near future, I think we will see where the market will be moving this year.

it is true that many people do not believe in price manipulation because of the decentralized nature of crypto, but in my opinion it might happen and be done by large investors, as small investors we can only be patient and hope the pump will happen soon

[VPScreator]

I think that many expected that prices will go even further down, as the recent price increase was only a normal correction of the market after a long fall.

[cryptolidus]

The market is still in bearish mode so it is normal that after some pumps the dump is following. It is early to make
conclusions after a pump and think that the bulls has arrived. We need more proof for it than a just a pump.

[abstractednerve]

I am not sure this time, because I don't think whales are manipulating crypto market right now! Though it was discussed that bitcoin price should down under 3K USD, maybe here we come! But don't worry mate! Crypto market will not recover in one day or month, it will take time. So, I recommend you, stop checking crypto market price for a while, keep doing your job perfectly. Everything will be fine.   

[basici]

There is no dump, and there is no need to talk about it. I think that 2019 will be the year of the bulls

[Elorika]

There is no dump, and there is no need to talk about it. I think that 2019 will be the year of the bulls

Yet there are no clear signs that this year will be the year of the ox , I think we are waiting for another decline and maybe even long before we see the bull .

[dominos]

I think that many expected that prices will go even further down, as the recent price increase was only a normal correction of the market after a long fall.

Maybe, because of many people expecting that prices will go even further down, we started already the bigger consolidation period for the whole cryptocurrency market.

[evanescence]

I think that many expected that prices will go even further down, as the recent price increase was only a normal correction of the market after a long fall.

When we see people FOMO into shorting, we know that prices will go up just so those guys would get liquidated 
Going AGAINST the market is more likely to give you a head start, than blindly following trends.

I am sure that this is another manipulation and the market will soon begin to grow well, because the market has been falling for more than a year.

[Pontorez]

I believe that the crypto market has a really great potential for the crypto market. The main thing now - the situation has gradually stabilized. Therefore, we continue to wait for a gradual increase in prices and a rise in the cost of coins. You just need to wait at least six months, the situation must definitely improve further.

[belcini]

Now, really, many people are hoping to correct the situation on the crypto market. After all, they continue to hodl their coins, believe in the rapid improvement of the situation. And I am very glad to see that the situation on the crypto market has gradually stabilized. There is every reason to say that the bull run will happen soon.

but now I think it's not so good to say it's stable. I even think that now bitcoin and some strong assets are struggling to maintain the current market. there is a possibility for the market to fall even deeper. but we all can't stop hoping to keep waiting for the bull run.

See we have to move according to the market situation because most of the people don't control towards the market but based on the market condition the price of coins is fluctuating. Last week we have seen huge pumps in the market and this week we are seeing some downward trend in the market. As a trader, we need to prepare ourselves for the uptrend and downwards trends.

[D3m1r4wanti]

I think that many expected that prices will go even further down, as the recent price increase was only a normal correction of the market after a long fall.

Is the price decrease that you mean now? now the price of the crypto currency is very far from the highest price. is there no possibility to develop again or is there an improvement in prices?

[Taner]

After passing the support level at $3298, the price of bitcoin may fall to the lows of September 2017 around $2970, this is the most likely scenario. Only a convincing breakout of $3658 can change the market picture.

We really hope to get a stable situation. the current price has decreased considerably, even though at the beginning of 2019 we have received an injection of enthusiasm when the crypto price increased by almost 15 percent. Hopefully there will be a positive stigma that can drive the price movements of the digital currency. With the positive stigma, the level of investor confidence will increase and the price of the digital currency will gradually increase.

[doycku]

After passing the support level at $3298, the price of bitcoin may fall to the lows of September 2017 around $2970, this is the most likely scenario. Only a convincing breakout of $3658 can change the market picture.

I fully agree with your opinion, but in order for the cryptocurrency market to have dramatic changes, you need to have some prerequisites for this. Today, Bitcoin cannot show good results, since its capitalization does not exceed the volumes that are available today.

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

The whales are the ones that are holding the most coins in the market so you cannot really take away the control they have over the market, what you need to do is to improve your ability to predict what will happen in the future, you can do this in several ways like learning technical analysis, fundamental analysis and watching the news about your favorite coins.

[cewekimut]

We must be patient because the Crypto market is very difficult to predict and does not sell coins when the price is red. It's better to keep holding coins because the market will definitely return green. We must remain positive that this year will be better than 2018 and the market will definitely recover.

[patz22]

Dump season already started and bloodbath every now and then. I wondering that will happen next. Are we going to see green graphs in the next months? Or it is over for other altcoins because see top coins will survive but if this will continue more or most coins will die.

[sempak]

Dumps have occurred since the declining trend in 2018 where the price of Bitcoin reached its highest point in history and in the following month there was a considerable and drastic decline in the history that exists today.

[Dragonrage201]

Hard to read much into these day to day up and down moves. The market has been going sideways for last two months so getting close to making a big move up or down soon.

[Irvinn]

There is no dump, and there is no need to talk about it. I think that 2019 will be the year of the bulls

Yet there are no clear signs that this year will be the year of the ox , I think we are waiting for another decline and maybe even long before we see the bull .

Many predict a further fall in the cryptocurrency market, and this is very sad. Hopefully, the market will soon recover. However, without addressing the issue of the normal activities of ICO projects, it is unlikely that the cryptocurrency will continue to develop normally. And the problems in iCO are very big now and they will not be solved quickly. Apparently, this type of activity requires government regulation. Meanwhile, the state in matters of cryptocurrency in no hurry.

[victoria444]

Not selling off my ledu or my other alts. This is but a one time occurence.

[Seeker#9]

There is always dump of prices in the crypto market and no one can avoid it. The market is not yet on the road to recovery but some price of the altcoins are going up and I think they are the one to recover first before bitcoin. The price of leading cryptocurrencies might continue to be in roller coaster ride because there is still no positive development to support a price rally.

you are right the possibility for crypto assets to experience a downturn is still there, we must see it carefully on the market. it is very difficult to see the increase that is happening in the market, because there is a possibility that it is just a trap like what happened to chemine.

Dump is natural with in downtrend and bear market. Cryptocurrencies are volatile financial assets and alternatives are limited. Pump and dump happens as fast as possible compared to forex news pump&dump.

[ethereumhunter]

The dump still happens in 2019, but the rises are on the right way to happen. Let we see what will happen in 2019. And if everything was run like this, we could see an explode of the cryptocurrency start on this year. But still, it's too far to expect the bull market will occur because the bitcoin price doesn't increase too higher and maybe we need to give more time for bitcoin.

does that mean we can't control the dump or pump that happens on the market? maybe the crypto market is indeed moving very fast, but all of that doesn't happen just like that, there are a number of processes that we can see the mark on the market for we can anticipate what will happen.

[batkaMahno]

I hope that 2019 will be successful. It seems to me that good growth will begin this year. At least I want to believe it.

There will be dumps everywhere and no one is exempted. Even fiat currency has dumps to and this makes everything so interesting because it keeps moving unlike to the others that staying in the same spot.
If you guys want to see a bull run then stop selling all away your cryptos it doesn't help.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Don't blame whale at this very point because many traders or small investors are also giving up on the cryptocurrencies. Sometimes, your needs is still stronger than your faith and we small individuals surrender easily when we don't have money left. The dump has already happened in 2018 and the cycle just continues and no one knows when will it stopped.

[bellaayu]

In the current situation, it's better to keep holding coins and not throw coins. In 2019 this certainly has very big hopes. We see that in 2018 the market price is high and low. And now we hope that in 2019 the price of coins will be from low to high.

I also think that I keep holding coins because the market is red, maybe adding coins will be better. Surviving and saving coins is an attitude that must be done, for now, it is still a shame if you have to throw it away.

coin or token are all choices of each person. we know that right now bitcoin itself is also experiencing a lot of price reductions and of course we must be able to be selective in choosing coins that are really good for us to invest

Dump movements are same as pump movements this january. They barely move aggressively. I guess we'll see a very lazy, boring market movement for likely most of the 1st quarter. Accumulate if you want. There's not much room to drop anymore anyways.

[Cnut237]

It's not looking great in the short-term, but I am still confident that we will break out of this bear market this year, and return to prices increases. New ATHs seem unlikely though. If we do start to get up to big prices, everyone will be wary of another big crash.

[ongkok87]

Hard to read much into these day to day up and down moves. The market has been going sideways for last two months so getting close to making a big move up or down soon.

but this year, of course, in the middle of the year there will be a lot of dumps because the market will definitely experience a good movement that makes many people sell their coins

We can absolutely do it if we get more money than whales.
 The crypto market is so, unfair and there is no general rule. so we only expect good luck to help us get out of poverty.

Your luck must be balanced with patience in waiting. this market will last a very long time, throughout 2018 it looks bad and at the beginning of 2019 it all looks worse. everyone wants luck to be immediately on the market to make the price of crypto assets increase rapidly.

[Oleg88]

I am already used to the fact that the market is falling periodically, so I do not pay attention to it. you just have to wait and that's it

[Prosperityforall]

It hasn't started yes, you know. Ethereum is simply in a range, but onve accumulation is finished, it is going to show bull run! I have no doubts! To my mind it will definitely show positive trend!

[Robotbitcoin22]

This is indeed quite tedious, but we should indeed be working bounty hunters to be able to focus more on the project and also look for the clear. prices will also increase later even though it's not fast

everyone is in a panic mode to sell everything in their crypto wallet, they are now quitting the crypto space. Such a very bad years for us crypto people, this is becoming worser day by day, we thought its gonna be green and then suddenly it will become red and its double way down. But we still have to keep our faith with crypto, this is just the beginning.

I don't think it's just whales manipulating things. Everyone's confidence is low right now, and all it takes is a small sell-off to cause more people to panic and join the selling, which obviously makes things worse. No-one knows when prices will stop falling, but I am confident that we will see price recovery in time... it just might take quite a lot of time.

[aervin11]

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

If you would ask me, I would say if the market turns to ZERO. LOL, we are here to make money, there is no lambo if no one would pay for it, in this case, sadly, it's you.

[^BuTcH^]

no, in 2019 there is no way for a dump. As you see market is just going up, there is no space to go down, don't you see it?
I am totally sure that market will show more positive signs!

[niteroy]

What is happening with the prices on the stock exchanges is not yet a dump, even though the price tends to fall. If the Bitcoin price drops below $3,000, then you should expect a major drop. Because the price of 3,000 dollars is a psychological price and another panic and sale may begin, but I am waiting for the fall to get Bitcoin as cheap as possible.

[goaldigger]

Dont lose hope mate. Its not because we already jumped to 2019 the price should change exactly according to date. This slight changes is also okay, weve only just starting and the price could change anytime. Its normal its still going downward for the first quarter since weve been through one year of negatives. It'll be back soon.

[inanilujimi]

familiarize yourself with these conditions because this is not the first time for bitcoin.
the most important thing is not to let this condition affect you and I personally believe this year is a crypto revival.

[Jesabela04]

I think it's hard to conclude this early if we are already experiencing or having the dump. The market has been shaky and I think changes like this is not as reliable as it is. Bitcoin is always in its minimal movement but I'm still hopeful about it no matter what.

[rodel caling]

familiarize yourself with these conditions because this is not the first time for bitcoin.

yeah great thoughts mate oh well we will survive for all these situation especially those people didn't learn well all about unpredictable virtual crypto currency market. The year 2019 is almost in the beginning let's keep on holding and do not lost hope don't give up for all of us bitcoiner.

[wxganz]

 I want to ask you a question. Do you really think that this mythical whales exist and manipulates the market? Because I see only masses of little fish that just seems to have weight like whale's weight.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

We can't do that. they insist on keeping it to be able to earn more money in the future as more and more investors join the crypto market.
That is why the BTC price never falls below $ 3,000 or below $ 2500. When its price is too cheap, other manipulators will acquire BTC and the whales will lose power.
Don't worry too much, the price of the BTC will soon fly high again.

Only through adoption.

And the bear run is going to be longer than investors expected now we need to really hold our coins without giving much space to our emotions here because it is the tool used by the whale to control the market.

It seems to me that everything happens quite the opposite. As if big whales are pumping out money from our wallets themselves. In some cases, with the help of provocations and panic, And In some cases, because of hopelessness, because the cryptocurrency market is the only source of income for many users of cryptocurrency.

[Token_King]

hold is not solution if you have many dollars in your crypto wallet. you need to moderate your holdings.

this year also be like that don't think about the highly expected changes will easily happened at this year and it take long time to make a normal position for all the cryptocurrency because the market will going down deeper side if it need to come back it takes long period of time

Many have already cashed their portfolios, expecting an even greater fall, so that later, at a lower price, to buy all the top coins again.  But this year will not exactly maximize and bring great profits, the recovery will take at least five months, and the intensity will remain low.

[DonFacundo]

I don't think whales can manipulate the market maybe the people tired of holding cryptos because of this bad condition in the market, it is so sad that we still face down market.

[Altero]

There is no manipulation case in the market, the undesirable market flows now will certainly not made by group of people or anyone.  It is just a normal case happen to the market,  due to the continues legalization process of crypto which it gives some effect. But we shouldn't be worried for this declines cause we are still have a huge from the community which helping us not to fall back into zero value.

[asayoyaasa]

I don't know how to manipulated marketplace in world-wide, if it just 1-2 exchanger you can say this is manipulated by the whales. No manipulate right now, its pure, real market condition. If you want to learn about trade, at least you will know how it possible.

[Juse14]

Really ? i tough the dump already begin at 2018, where are you went the party already over, still holding your crypto until you going to die with it ? you should use a stop lose feature man.

Yes, it seems that the market reflects the real mood of the majority of participants. We can imagine: if there was a jump in prices, few people would want to buy, because the opposite momentum is expected. There is no sustainable long-term market sentiment. This has been going on for a whole year.

[galundan9]

I think the popes are still waiting for prices to drop even lower so they can buy them back at that price, the market conditions lately I think it's normal and there is no manipulation of the popes, because with a red market situation for quite a long time make some people sell their assets to avoid greater losses. this of course makes the market cycle continue to decline in price.

[Yamifoud]

Looking to the market trend, we can see that we are badly declining since from the start 2018 until now. Though isn't the first time happen but it gives some worries for many people especially for newly adopters. Prices is not the worsen happen compared to previous years  and we are far enough for that to happen again unless we all dump it.

[jupppo]

I think that patience is the key to success. Only strong investors can survive on such market. When all cryptocurrensies are falling it's better to open short positions, you can use margin trading.

[sweetbet]

Totally agree. I've been shorting my bags with great success.

[okan]

there is no any dump and pump waiting in 2019.
it will be a stable year.
marketcap will swing around 110 and 150B
bitcoin will swing 3250 and 3750
etheum will swing 100 and 125

[luongdk]

I don't think so. As you know dump hasn't finished yet and as long as market has cycles, now we are at accumulation stage and next stage is growth. Hope it will show power soon and all crypto enthusiasts will be rewarded finally. I am not sure about time range, but you can wait for a while and see results

[TravelMug]

Hope it will show power soon and all crypto enthusiasts will be rewarded finally. I am not sure about time range, but you can wait for a while and see results

But it's possible that the bears are really exhausted and not dumping as hard as they can. Remember the price is on trading sideways, a indication that there's no more big movements and could potentially break a new trend and hopefully the price will go South again.

Of course patience is needed specially today, so there's no time frame. But we need to be ready and continue to accumulate and purchase more before the market changes cycle.

[romero121]

With each and everything there is up as well down. It is us who handle the situation. It is a cyclic process, bitcoin has started from a valueless giveaway to the peak value of around $20000. In this regard price increase and decrease were part of the market, we need to be prepared to meet the market. When there is a dump surely pump is promised, we need the patience to keep our portfolio high.

Unfortunately with market conditions like this, most of the value of the portfolio kit will definitely decrease. many people have to be forced to sell some of their assets because they have no savings. I myself only have to leave a few assets in my portfolio.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

Yes, now we are seeing another decline in the price of cryptocurrency. All our problems, first of all, from the beginning, are created in our heads. It all depends on our attitude to the situation.
If you bought coins for hold and believe in their future, then you should not worry every time the price of cryptocurrency goes down.
If you bought coins for trade, then trade. Of course, if you see that soon the price may fall, then you better stay in usdt. Then, when you see that the price should increase, just buy coins and wait for the opportunity to sell them again.

[eagleman]

Market stability is just showing onto this time.
Altcoins are just becoming stable because bitcoin has reached another probable support.

[Teraboy]

Market stability is just showing onto this time.
Altcoins are just becoming stable because bitcoin has reached another probable support.

Due to the a lot of good news has come this week and that builds a lot of support in the market. ETF rumour has been creating the next hype to the bitcoin in the future. Some regulators are against each other about the security definition that created by SEC.

[Juse14]

I think just the manipulation from the market, big whale try to make the price go into the support. A lot company want to invest on cryptocurrency thats why they try push the market into the bottom.

[Vispilio]

There are big and small players in any market, but very very few actors can refuse fundamental forces for long without losing

tremendous amounts  of money, so as most prominent cryptos are building a strong base here for some months now,

so called "whale" activity is immaterial...

[marketone]

I think just the manipulation from the market, big whale try to make the price go into the support. A lot company want to invest on cryptocurrency thats why they try push the market into the bottom.

Exactly, with mass adoption it is impossible to increase the prices but whales are manipulating the market and they started accumulating them in the market when the coins are at below prices. Which will help to increase the prices in the market when they started increasing in the market.

Better get used to it because it is already part of cryptocurrency trading. Even during a bullish market, there is always a price dump whenever a coin go into correction or accumulation. But if a you are a trader, you can still earn profit by means of short trade even during a bearish market. The big players in the crypto market, also called whales, are also the ones who push the prices up and without them there will be no enough funds to make the prices go up.

I actually consider that trading daily in bad market conditions especially the volume that keeps falling is not very good. it's okay for prices to go down but try to keep choosing assets with high trading volumes, it is a trading solution at the time of the market as it is now.

You can tell everyone that the time is getting near. Now the bears are even hungry. They need money from crypto so they are going to run away very soon. We all want money from crypto just that as part of the game, it is not a nice experience but that does not make it seem like all is lost. I am hopeful that the market will recover soon.

[Omega Weapon]

I don't think whales can manipulate the market maybe the people tired of holding cryptos because of this bad condition in the market, it is so sad that we still face down market.

Of course they can, this is no different than a business that holds a monopoly of a technology or a service, they can ask whatever price they want for their services and they will get it, the whales are the same, with the huge amount of coins they have they can crash the market if they want or they can make the price to go up but it seems they are deciding to accumulate more coins and prepare themselves for the next bull market.

Yes, this market is like where they play and whatever they can do. Because they have large funds and large amounts of coins. As a small trader, I play safer by trading every day. But this is also risky because every day you must always monitor the Crypto market.

[gembira]

The 2018 y. was a year of depression. Every day we had bad news. But in this year i see almost only positive news. Some big players going to eantry in crypto.

yes, you were right in 2018 was the year that put pressure on depression on crypto currency holders, that year I never even opened the forum again because I was frustrated with the crypto future. but I returned in 2019 hoping that this year would be a good era for crypto currency.

before end of year dumping in market still continue, and i believe in end of year the bearish in market are over after bitcoin halving in 2020 and maybe the price of cryptocurrency going to the moon until 2021-2022 like in 2017

[glowing10]

I think that instead of dump it should be pump because this year their has not being that fall by now and prices will recover in coming time so it will be the pump which will happen . Also 200$ around has rose in this last 5days which is a good sign .

[tarable]

that's right because this year the market has started to have a pretty good increase, so if you all want to get a big enough profit it's better to be patient until the market experiences a large increase

[TIDOVEE]

I have kept my eye off the market for now in order to reduce pressure and unnecessary enthusiasm since the price value for now is still far from what I want to see. I'm not even expecting much for this month. Simply busy with other campaign. So,I suggest you rest your mind and don't give yourself headache.

Been day trading for the last 6 months because of the bullish trend. Would suggest you to do the same for now and stop for a brief moment before investing all in. You could still invest for a longterm with very small amounts daily, like $10-$50usd but not more and keep daytrading to get yourself rolling in while the bearish market is still here.

[rozak]

I have kept my eye off the market for now in order to reduce pressure and unnecessary enthusiasm since the price value for now is still far from what I want to see. I'm not even expecting much for this month. Simply busy with other campaign. So,I suggest you rest your mind and don't give yourself headache.

I agree with your words , the most important thing is that when the market is in bad condition, you don't need to think about it , because I'm sure a bad situation like this won't be forever

You do have to think about it if your bags are full of altcoins.
Market is in bad condition and things can become worst but frankly I think things will become better one day, not this year but maybe in 2020, just give it some time.

[trader34]

The 2018 y. was a year of depression. Every day we had bad news. But in this year i see almost only positive news. Some big players going to eantry in crypto.
Fidelity, Bakkt, may be ETFs. Biggest Japanese banl going to launch crypto platform too. Seems very huge money coming in crypto in this year.

Yes, I agree. There are many positive news in the crypto space, so, in my opinion, the sentiment of the market cannot stay negative forever. Things are developing, so sooner or later I expect a positive impact.

[rosebrand]

not always the market will be in a bad situation and it's time for the market to start growing soon, I think this year the bullrun market will be imminent.
we've all been waiting too long for the price situation in the market to be at a high rate, yes maybe if you read predictions from people who are very experienced in the field of crypto said significant new growth will occur in 2020, I hope growth can occur in the year this.

[Kucink]

Today is a very sad day for me ... just when I was thinking the crypto space is on its way to its formal glory ... here we are again... the market is red and over 15 percent down...

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

You can tell everyone that the time is getting near. Now the bears are even hungry. They need money from crypto so they are going to run away very soon. We all want money from crypto just that as part of the game, it is not a nice experience but that does not make it seem like all is lost. I am hopeful that the market will recover soon.

just calm and wait in a little time, bearish are over and go away from the market started in the next year.
we will stop fasting and start partying again in the market.

[sky_Gritzz]

maybe yes the dump market are starting, at the moment the bitcoin price is still being tested whether it will touch the resistance limit or not, if it touches the resistance the price might drop back in the future

too long waiting for the market to up until 2020 , bull market already seen, all of the altcoins up from before were only waiting for the bull run market to arrive , I'm sure the bull run market will come this year too

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

To me this is expected and during Chinese new celebrations we should not expect too good price as many Chinese traders are out of the market.  I think we are not going to have upwards movement until around second quarter of this year.  So I am not surprised of the current happening in the market.

[aziziasa]

By 2019 I think more people will invest. 2019 must be a good year for Crypto because we see that throughout 2018 the Crypto market crashed. We must be sure and think positively because this is very important to foster trust.

[Dragonrage201]

More and more big players are getting involved in cryptos. Even JPM announced their crypto coin recently. Market is going to turn bullish in coming time.

but if my own predictions for this year until the coming year the market will experience a good movement so that the bull run will definitely be there even though many people are not sure of that

[Cryptosaja]

Don't be too sad because many people believe that this year Crypto will start to rise slowly, so be optimistic because dumps have been going on for a long time, so this year is bullish time

[pungopete468]

Actually the decline from the market has occurred since 2018, it can be seen that the downward trend of the market seems to be declining and until now it seems clear that the decline is still happening

[bitcoinisbest]

Actually the decline from the market has occurred since 2018, it can be seen that the downward trend of the market seems to be declining and until now it seems clear that the decline is still happening

Well their has being no such dump in this year to say it was just couple of 100 dollars which has risen as well and quite stable at this time. All thing that created down was in the year 2018 and this year it can be quite opposite and market could just rise much very quickly and cross even 10k in coming  time.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

2019 cannot be used as a benchmark for continuing to be in the pump position, because if you see the market is not stable, I think it can still be a dump. but there are many ways to anticipate and we must always be vigilant and take care of our assets.

[dodgrad]

Actually the decline from the market has occurred since 2018, it can be seen that the downward trend of the market seems to be declining and until now it seems clear that the decline is still happening

We can not say that the bear market is definitely over, but in my opinion we are already in a period of stabilization. If the situation does not change for another month, I think that we will be able to say with certainty that the bear market is over.

we are expecting this market will get into a good stage but the dump was being continually affecting the market again and again so it's leads to the market will go for again once and it will definitely affect the condition also.

[Koobtcgal]

The crypto market is quite stable these days and I think we are in a new trend. I do not want to be bearish this time but rather say it is a positive news for the crypto market as the prices are not further falling.
IMO, are about starting a new bull run. All the things needed to make this possible are set in so I will not be surprised if it happens earlier.

[Omega Weapon]

I don't think whales can manipulate the market maybe the people tired of holding cryptos because of this bad condition in the market, it is so sad that we still face down market.

Of course they can, this is no different than a business that holds a monopoly of a technology or a service, they can ask whatever price they want for their services and they will get it, the whales are the same, with the huge amount of coins they have they can crash the market if they want or they can make the price to go up but it seems they are deciding to accumulate more coins and prepare themselves for the next bull market.

Yes, this market is like where they play and whatever they can do. Because they have large funds and large amounts of coins. As a small trader, I play safer by trading every day. But this is also risky because every day you must always monitor the Crypto market.

As long as you are smart and you have a tight stop loss you have nothing to be afraid of the whales, just make sure that you have the necessary amount of knowledge before you begin to trade because there are many people that think they have what it is necessary only to find out too late that was not the case and then they lose the money they invested in the market.

It seems to me that today only those users of cryptocurrency who have not lost their assets can use this situation and, moreover, still have certain funds for profitable investments. In any case, today there are very good chances for buying cheap rating coins, which in the long run will bring very good profits.

[playboy654]

There is still and stability will continue to make this field more weak in this time equally the pump and dump will happening again and again that's why the investors very confusing this is the right time to sell or not but definitely my open any you can wait for sometime to get the good result.

[Bezobraznike]

   What you people think to whom you sell? When someone sell`s, others bought and they are continuing. It`s an economy, as long as someone is
buying and selling, dumping or buying furiously economy is alive and well.
   Many dumps started and ended, prices are holding strong position in 2019. People talk about accumulation and this position where we are now is
great, from here it can only be better.

yes definitely the pump and dump field continuously happening to cryptocurrencies in this time but don't judge very quickly this will be the value at this time definitely it will grow input 10 because there is the possibility also being that to see here to move on.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

I will say we should not think about how to free bitcoin from the hands of the whales! Rether we should think on how to become a whale ourselves.  I have desire to be among the whales because either we like it or not the whales are going to remain with us as they exist on all market.  However,  whales are there to makes profits from the market and whenever there desires the move the market to that direction for there benefits.

[Anc92]

Want to be free of whales?
Get into real use case projects and hold their coins for the long term.
If you're a small investor, you're never going to beat the whales.

[airdagon]

I think this all happened because of the market conditions that wanted it, not because of the pope or the other, because almost all coin dumps

[MidnightWolf]

I think this all happened because of the market conditions that wanted it, not because of the pope or the other, because almost all coin dumps

I think that soon we will see the results of what is happening in the cryptocurrency market.  Up to 11, due to various negative news in India, where the government wants to impose imprisonment for users of cryptocurrency, the market reacted very negatively with falling prices.  But since the 12th, the indicators have somewhat improved and I think that users of cryptocurrency adequately perceive everything that is happening.

[Rooster101]

Dumping is already a part of every coin price abd expect it to happen again. But the situation this year is totally different from last year's bearish market because the price of many of the coins in the market has appreciated for the five months and is still continuing up to now. The price cycle goes on, dumping followed by pumping but I believe that this year pumping will outnumbers dumping. Despite some price dumps, the bitcoin and other altcoins remains to be bullish until the end of this year.

[Google+]

I think this all happened because of the market conditions that wanted it, not because of the pope or the other, because almost all coin dumps

not all coins dumps, at this time the price of bitcoin has started to crawl up and I think at this time it has begun to do a price recovery again and the proof of the price of bitcoin can rise again to the price of $ 8000. hopefully the price of all cryptocurrency can be expensive again by the end of this year.

I think also like that, seeing bitcoin increase again and if it continues to happen I don't think the market is likely to improve. because if we see now some altcoins have also started to increase.

What is dumping fo now!were still in $8,000 level from $3,000 early this year so what considers you that dumping has started?seems like you wanted a continuous growth?

Lol correction must happen in every pump and this situation is normal since we only drops $1,000 from the value of bitcoin and all the altcoins in top 10.i strongly believe that this is just the start of much better pump in the next days to come

The opposite is happening, which is the pump started in 2019, slowly but surely the price rises again.
We have to be optimistic of its going now, bitcoin been bullish and I thought we will stay longer at sub $7000 but now it's stable back again at $8000, and good news is its increasing.

the only thing that can make us free from whales is by hodling your coins and not into panic selling, weak hands gives the whales more power. This is the best time to hodl you favorite coins whales and bulls will dominate this year.

[Fredomago]

The coins still trying to bounce back from those dumping that happened, many investors and traders already have an ideas on how to continue profiting even the market is falling, some continue to buy and wait till the price bounce back again and create new rise.

All this is true because the market is happening and negative news will affect it even though it may begin to decrease. but was very sure that the change towards improvement had already been seen and was just a matter of time. all hope for that improvement.

[WannaCry]

as many people is expecting-- we cannot predict the price or what will happen to the market.. there are whales out there playing there money that is why price are declining

[btcmegastar]

I think also like that, seeing bitcoin increase again and if it continues to happen I don't think the market is likely to improve. because if we see now some altcoins have also started to increase.

Again, the price of bitcoin increased today which helps the other potential coins like EOS, ZiL, ADA etc will also increase their prices in the market. Once the price of bitcoin start decreasing automatically the price of altcoin will surely decrease in the market.

[Chikito]

I think this all happened because of the market conditions that wanted it, not because of the pope or the other, because almost all coin dumps

What dumped?, no, aren't coin dump by market, no body want this happen. Some of them want to sell it when price become high, then happen couple week ago, then they want to buy back to day, at cheap price.

How do we free crypto from the hands of whales.. manipulating the market??

So sad! Really it sad for me because that time, I was in my practice teaching. I did not think how it could be grew today. The market is recovering right now, from 4k dollars bitcoin pumped up over 100% price. We will see how it will surge more for more than two months. Since bakkt is waving for the crypto industry.

[sanida]

As of today Bitcoin has recovered from that deadly dump last year. we can still see $8000 in the next month if the trend still there, this is the most losngest hold from $800 since last's years deep fall. we just need to believe that after hard fall there will be a bounce back just like we see in the market chart today.

That's right, the bounce back always followed when we suffer from dumped around the market, giving investors trust to come back and
start all over as they expect to have some good profits in returned, if you believe things will happen don't be bother that much when you
see some corrections that happened wait for another cycle.

Indeed we're heading back at $8000 and hopefully there will be more demands coming in order for the corrections of the dumps. Although we seem to notice the start of dumps this 2019, don't worry this kind of scenario because that's normal occurrence during long bearish period. For my own perspective, that price declined based on the opportunities seen by more traders who've been long term holders; they're just grabbing their chance for them to cope up their financial needs.

[deathcode]

What dumped?, no, aren't coin dump by market, no body want this happen. Some of them want to sell it when price become high, then happen couple week ago, then they want to buy back to day, at cheap price.

I think it would be natural if people sold it and would buy it back when the price was cheap. that is a normal situation I think in a crypto trade. because of a growing asset with investors and traders. traders who increase trading every day and investors who make price stability by maintaining the assets that they have. investors will also sell their assets when prices are good, because it relates to the function of the platform on the market that can make asset prices rise.

It was not a real dump - just a temporary decrease in the market. We will see these moments this year many times. However, the mainstream of the cryptos now is their growth - they are gaining and do it pretty well.

[sulendra12]

Yes, and please stop claiming that whenever the assets are going down, you call it dump because that's not how it works. If you think like that then it will probably spread up as FUD and will make the market even worse.

[andibongkol]

the increase in crypto has been seen lately but dump is always haunting no one can ensure the dump stops for next keep investing and always be careful

The market now is good than before so I think you don't need to worry about it because the bull run is coming. Just be patience and go to market to gain and make profit. Don't lose your hope about the price or in the market because everything will be alright again.

[Kasabus]

I am still waiting for the changes to be happen in my investment because dump will not easily happened in the middle of the Year so I think again it will develop and make the changes in value to be developed

Everyone of us here are waiting, and that's the only thing we can do for now.
The dump happens last year, not this year, maybe if there are dumps this year, it only happen in the first or 2nd month of the year, but so far see some major improvement in the market, especially on bitcoin and some major altcoins, so this is just a sign that sooner pump could also happen.

[moynul2050]

currently it is the worst downturn, but the situation did not last long, as we saw together, now the bitcoin price is showing improvement.
and hopefully this year is also the beginning of a big pump.

[criket]

currently it is the worst downturn, but the situation did not last long, as we saw together, now the bitcoin price is showing improvement.

why do you say this is the worst now? this year will be better than last year, believe me. bitcoin has increased as you said. but indeed the market movement is still slow, this is like the market movement in early May which surprisingly experienced a pump.

[shoreno]

I am still waiting for the changes to be happen in my investment because dump will not easily happened in the middle of the Year so I think again it will develop and make the changes in value to be developed

What changes are you waiting about ?  You mean the pump of the market ?  Anyway , we are already on the middle of the year  and the dump just happen recently  . dump can easily happen more than the pump because there are more sellers than compare to hodlers and buyers but dont worry because the dump wont last a long time this year not unlike to last year where the dump lasted a long time  .

[coingrowth]

I think this all happened because of the market conditions that wanted it, not because of the pope or the other, because almost all coin dumps

not all coins dumps, at this time the price of bitcoin has started to crawl up and I think at this time it has begun to do a price recovery again and the proof of the price of bitcoin can rise again to the price of $ 8000. hopefully the price of all cryptocurrency can be expensive again by the end of this year.

Yes, everyone has a huge expectation about the cryptocurrency prices but due to fluctuation, the prices are kept decreasing. So we need to have patience until the prices start recovering and we might see higher value to the coins, so we need to wait for them with little more patience in the market.

[DEX-Champion]

How would you guys identify a 'dump', rather than just a regular dip in the market?

[Hypnosis00]

We experience a lot of time in dumps and it seems to be normal in a decentralized market. We're moving into accepting the reality and not just be blinded.
I do believe that this dumps never takes so long, we have a 1 year in correction and I may think that 2019 is more on recovery.

How would you guys identify a 'dump', rather than just a regular dip in the market?

Don't think about it made, those people are just looking on the negative side but not of its real purpose.

Lol no one can identify in other way,because dump will base on the movement of the prices from the exchange,or when the selling is massively happening

[cepot9]

don't cry too much about the price because it will make your actions rash so that you will be in that stream forever, try to always hold some bitcoin and altcoins that are worth keeping up and down
