Honestly, do you guys think cryptocurrencies will be gone anytime soon?

[maxreish]

Do you even realized that many new investors are still buying and investing cryptocurrencies? If i were to ask about future, btc will still stay for so many years. The development is growing fast and the adoption is starting. I do hope you get back in trading your coins so you would be aware that the train you are talking about is still active and fast just like before. I do not see any certain reason why investors will turn their back in crypto investments.

I haven't been trading my bitcoins and cryptos since this year begins, but I have noticed that the hype train is slowing down since then, compared to last year. I want some honest opinion about the future outlook of BTC or crypto per se. Should investors invest in it ?

Last year's hype was due to the rise of bitcoin. The reason is that there are many new investors who want to keep up with the hype train. They do not wonder if the price of bitcoin will fall further.

Now that last year's new investors are gone, they may never again invest in bitcoin.

The 2017 hype is gone, people are learning they are not taking the risk anymore. They only invest in a few legitimate and trusted projects only. That's a good thing only good remains but it doesn't mean that cryptocurrency will be gone, maybe some of it those sh*tcoin will be erased and forgotten. But bitcoin will lead us to a decentralized future it will never be gone.

We don't need to do hype here only coins that need promotion because it's a new coin that needs hype. but in the case of Bitcoin, it doesn't need hype there are continuous news coming, new videos being uploaded on Youtube, and news articles being written, in fact, Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency still dominate the search engine, you just need to get updated to see the real situation.

Since bitcoin and other cryptos are on bearish sentiment you won't hear much hype about them just wait and when another bullish sentiment evolves then begins another hype especially from the media thus there is no cause for alarm just continue your trading the volume of bitcoin traded daily is a good evidence and yardstick for its sustainability in its future outlook.

In general, I don’t see bitcoin to gone anytime soon as adoption would be accumulating. As long features exists people will recognize bitcoin. Indeed those only shitcoins would be gone and totally valueless in the market. People who believe about the future of crypto will continue adopting and will still invest in it.

[Astvile]

If you mean by invest in it is altcoin yes you can consider and should try and invest in altcoin and trade with it and see if you can profit more than bitcoin can give you. I know few investors who have found their fortune on altcoins and not on bitcoin so you should try it too but only invest what you can afford to lose.

Do you see people screaming about Facebook and Instagram like they did 5 years from now? Do you see people posting pictures of every phone they purchase like they did a few years ago? No it's because technology generally creates hype upon it's inception but this falls once it becomes common it doesn't means that it's use has fallen but people consider it as a normal routine thing which I think is good for BTC. So no Cryptocurrencies are not going anywhere soon the reduction in hype is just because people are normal with bitcoin now

[Andrews193]

this is what is called risk and wherever the risk will always be there, this cryptocurrency currency can disappear at any time, but as long as the internet and electricity are still there then cryptocurrency and other digital currencies will not be easy to disappear.

If we invest in projects that lack manpower and capitalization, do not even have too many plans for development, soon disappearing is possible but talking about the entire crypto market, especially those projects that are high quality, these cryptos are really not easy to disappear when everything is no longer in the ancient period. The position and development of the crypto sector has been built and confirmed in the minds of many investors, with this steady need and capitalization, disappearing at any time is almost impossible

The cryptocurrency market is developing cyclically, with periodic periods of ups and downs. Now it’s just a period of relative calm and nothing more. I do not see any threat to the existence of cryptocurrency. We have problems with the activities of ICOs, however, they are temporary and the market will surely find a way to solve them. Now there is a gradual legalization of cryptocurrency by states and this process has a positive effect on its popularity.
Since the price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies has been practically in place for quite some time, and a long pause is not peculiar to this market, given that we entered the last quarter of the year, I think that we will soon see good news.

Iif the investment is profitable, I will invest. From my view blockchain technology is very profitable, just how we can put these investments in the right place. We have many digital currencies that use and develop blockchain technology, it will be very difficult if we do not understand crypto itself. Bitcoin is currently dominating the market, it might be a good place.

The beginning of bitcoin value was very low, now has a high value. from here we can see changes in people's values and beliefs. Conversely if the user's trust drops, then the value can also be destroyed. So cryptocurrency can be gone at any time, but conditions where users no longer trust cryptocurrency will be achieved first.

It depends on the investors, because they buy bitcoin and other currency exchanges.
And it also depends on their strategy if they continue to buy bitcoin even if it is about to disappear, which is a good strategy to buy when it is low.

I guess some years ago there was huge hype on computers too when they were new thing and hard to access but it doesn't mean demand on them is or was decreased, no, opposite happened. There isn't hype but is huge demand and massive usage on them. So can say the same on bitcoin, there was hype on it when price skyrocketed from 600$ to 20K, yeah, it was really sensation but now it's not like that and it doesn't mean cryptocurrencies will disappear in near future. No, they are innovative things which are gaining roots everyday more deeply, every service tries to integrate them and people see some hope in crypto unlike USD which is massively printed.

Bitcoin won't ever be "destroyed", even not if it ends up tanking back to 3 or even 2 figure levels---there will always be a niche market where Bitcoin will be the in-demand currency, similar to how Bitcoin was used within SilkRoad.

The trust you are talking about is relative too, because in most cases it's all related to the price action---where price up means people have a lot of confidence in Bitcoin, but when it drops by 10% the same people suddenly start to worry.

OGs have always believed in Bitcoin's capabilities as decentralized/censorship resistant money, where the price was less relevant because they didn't see it as an investment asset, but as a tool to obtain freedom.

bitcoin is one of the best cryptocurrency to use as a form of long-term investment, many people believe that in the future bitcoin will be more valuable, even today bitcoin is still being developed. therefore if we feel confident to put some of the money we have in it, it is very likely that in the future we will feel the benefits derived from the investments we make in it.

[Google+]

bitcoin can indeed go whenever it wants but you must know that bitcoin will not easily disappear because bitcoin has very high demand and very many users, when there is a disaster happening on earth and there is no electricity or the internet then bitcoin is only temporarily dead while bitcoin is still on the internet.

[Shasha80]

I am very confident about the future of cryptocurrency, especially bitcoin, and I have never even thought of cryptocurrency will be gone
anytime soon. Many people think that way because they may be new to bitcoin or they may not have the experience and knowledge about
cryptocurrency. Because for people who already understand, learn, use bitcoin, there is no doubt that bitcoin has tremendous potential for
humanity's life in the field of technology. So a positive community that supports bitcoin like This bitcointalk forum members are sure of the
future of bitcoin, so if there is more money, bitcoin must be bought for hold for long-term investment.

[Nhor1011]

So far bitcoin already 10 years in crypto space and for me it will stay for a long period of time. It has huge demand and really helped many people especially those who don't have work only depends on crypto. If you learned about bitcoin i think your doubt will gone. Just enjoy investing and trading bitcoin to get profit and avoid negative thinking it won't help you to succeed in crypto space. But for altcoins i think the weakest will disappear,not all will stay in crypto market for so long.

Honestly in my own opinion until the new technology atill exist bitcoin never gone I suggest for op do not lost hope up and down the price of bitcoin is normal so better to learn well what is bitcoin all about digital ceypto currency you can get a lot of knowledge to avoid doubt of this new form of money in the future.

[Orange Mango]

No, they are here to stay for sure. Just natural improvement of things over the years. It is a digital age the age f technology why would we still be using physical money anymore?
Everything is digital these days that once not so long ago were all not digital. The blockchain technology is safe and can be trusted. I have more trust in bitcoin than fiat.
