Was 2017 the "Golden Year of Crypto"?

[leea-1334]

Maybe it was just because I did not fancy altcoins too much, or even was not interested in selling anything no matter what but the year I properly entered Bitcoin was 2017,,, so it will always be the golden year for me.

Note that I got into many projects that turned out to be scams that year and got into coins and projects that are no longer alive today,,, so golden does not mean profit for me, just good memories:)

Longing for beautiful memories, when indeed the memory of crypto that gave happiness to many people in 2017, agree with your opinion that it is a golden memory that is hard to forget and maybe until now it is longed to happen again.

but with full confidence I feel that something like that will happen again next year, this is the prediction that I see from this year's Halving results. if that's true then maybe it will be more than in 2017, and we hope that can happen.

The year 2017 was the year where Bitcoin went as high as 20000$ and as per the record, it was the highest price ever for Bitcoin. So many investors thinking it was the Golden year of crypto, but it depends on the perception of each investor. Halving just happened a few months ago, so many are waiting to break that record this year. Who knows before the end of the year will have another "golden year of Crypto".

I just became active again in crypto during that time ICOs were successful, bounties are generous and the market rose like crazy in just a snap. We can say as of now it is the best moment in crypto, but cannot determine what is in store for crypto this coming days, months, or years. Cryptocurrency is evolving as time goes by and more and more people are getting ibvolved on it.

[harapan]

We don't know the best is yet to come or not, but what we do know is that during the crypto world, 2017 is the best year for everyone. now just hoping there will be even bigger surprises in the future

[Sembadapuja]

We still remember that the market cap value of the crypto market reached a high of almost $ 800 billion and the Bitcoin price reached $ 20k. But I think a better year is coming back and now it's starting to show positive moves marked by rising prices for the DeFi project. Now we have seen a lot of projects that have a uniqueness which makes them valuable. We have seen mass adoption of the DeFi and coin market cap increase significantly. I believe that the BTC and other crypto prices will rise again, but no one knows when. Well no one really knows but im still optimistic that it wont be long and we'll see  another bull market again.

Q4 of 2017 and Q1 of 2018 is the most golden period for everyone related to cryptos even bounty hunters made thousands to millions by doing simple tasks even when they have not much knowledge related to cryptos.

Agree as I also experienced this a golden moments for bounty hunters earning like $10k-20k in just one campaign, not anticipating that a bear market will come in the middle of 2018 and all of my holdings fall really fast I dont know if I can say that 2017 is the Golden year in crypto but its one of the best days.

[minatour]

2017 is the best year so far, best year for hunters, traders and for all cryptocurrency enthusiasts. Am sure there are more goodies ahead.

If we compare it to last year, I think this year is a sign of the golden year crypto revival because there are many successful projects this year, and there are also many airdrops and bounties that provide free tokens of great value. and that seems to be improving in 2017, but I'm not sure next year will it be the same as this year or it will come back to like 2019.

[icekohl]

Time past, the crypto market is more and more mature, so making money from it will also be more difficult, but in my opinion, the number of scam projects is very small compared to 2017, which is also a good sign. The market will develop more stably and sustainably.

[disconnectme]

Yes it was, 2017 prove to us that institutional investors can trust Crypto and allocate part fo their portfolio to it, the rush of money from the institution helps drive the market up that year with numerous ICOs project, I believe it is still going to take time before the space can get that kind of money again because most of the ICOs in 2017 have failed to deliver even just few like Binance that did exceedingly well and for me is a stand out story.

[Nalien]

Yes I do think that 2017 was the golden year of crypto and I will always remember it. People went crazy after buying bitcoins and it was easy to earn it as well so yeah I believe it was a golden year of crypto.

Ah yes that good ol days when the price went up to 20k. It just took a month for its massive increases actually, and it was insane. It should be marked as a part of history of Bitcoin already from its price range.
Kinda sad what happened next as you mentioned, but it's unavoidable as it is a government and you can't do a single crap against it singlehandedly.

It should be something yet to come for me actually, although regulations are happening, some are even lifting their regulations lately. The only question is when.

[tycsols]

Do you think that 2017 was the "Golden Year of Crypto"? Or is the best is yet to come? Your input will be greatly appreciated.

In my opinion the best year is yet to come and i expect it to be really parabolic because you are asking in terms of value gain, right. I think 2025 could be the biggest year because till then crypto would be adopted by masses and 2024 btc halving would also have happened and considering the adoption and historic bullish pattern i assume 2025 can be really reqlly big for crypto market.

[n0ne]

It was one among the year for crypto, because the growth took place in large scale with no big drop. More such years can be seen with the upcoming years. For me personally that was a big year, because I had good volume of tokens that grew high. Now even if there is good bump in the market I don't have anything to profit big. With every form of investment, the history repeats and the same happens with bitcoin for sure.

[Abiky]

2017 was another year where we saw cyclic bullish wave which is a historic pattern that was previously seen in 2012-13 and then in 2016-17 and now hopefully we will be seeing a similar market in 2021 as it is the time after halving when markets are aggressively taken over by the bulls.

Agree. There's pattern of a bull market every one or two years after a Bitcoin halving. If history repeats itself, we might be able to experience new ATHs during the course of 2021. Only this time is different since we're living in a pandemic. This brings a period of uncertainty never before seen during crypto's lifetime. It may turn out that 2021 will remain exactly the way 2020 is right now with only a minor increase in price of major cryptocurrencies on the market. Or another boom like 2017 could happen during 2021, making many early investors wealthy. In a crypto world that often behaves in strange and bizarre ways, anything can happen.

Nonetheless, I'd expect the crypto market will reach $1 Trillion in the not-so-distant future. Until that happens, 2017 will remain as the "Golden Year of Crypto". It'll always be remembered as a year where crypto became widely adopted in the mainstream world. So many exciting events happened back then from the formation of ICOs, to the foundation of Binance exchange. In such a short amount of time, the crypto industry has grown into a force to be reckoned with. As Bitcoin's third halving became a reality on May 2020, it should only be a matter of time before prices start rising all the way to the moon. Just my opinion

[Alohadanc3]

2017 was really a good year for holders and cryptocurrency enthusiastics. Those who hold bitcoin or any big or mid cap coin made a huge amount of profits. But many people also lost  their money on that golden season too. Cause many newcomer started to invest in that high time. But 2020 is also a good time for many people. Normally those who hold some specific akta they make profits in good amount. But this run is not like 2017 cause in 2017 the whole marketcap also pump in huge amount. In 2017 the market cap is almost half of 2017. But let see many good news comes from many institutions maybe this time we break all the records.

[scolary23]

At the moment, too little time has passed to give a final assessment or present an award such as "Golden Year of Crypto". It was just a stage in a revolution in the global economy. The highest point has not yet been. It's just that not everyone understands and understands the importance of cryptocurrencies in the modern digital world. It will take time for those who have doubts about investing in cryptocurrencies to take part. Only by covering the maximum number of participants can conclusions be drawn.

[Kez1817]

End of 2017 is the best time of crypto but I think when you say Golden Year of Crypto it has not yet come. Cryptocurrency is still at development stage , So let's wait the Golden year ahead.
