2017 Vs 2021

[otreza]

Even in 2021 it has exceeded 2017. We are always wary of a bearish market. However, lately there is no news or sign from the chart that indicates that the beginning of 2021 will be a negative market. As long as I can enjoy the current profits, I always try to make a profit from short-term trading and buy good coins for the long term. My prediction is that in early 2021 we will experience a considerable correction.

The year 2021 is already coming to an end )))
In 2022 there will be a boom in NFT projects. Even Tarantino started to use this opportunity. But things are much more complicated and the big players have gotten into the game. The stakes are very high, if the market falls, it will pull many other assets with it. And El Salvador's economy will suffer because BTC is part of the country's budget.

Things will work out differently this time because the demand of crypto in 2021 is way bigger than that of 2017, huge institutions are into crypto right now and it's growing faster than the past so things will be different, even if bear market happens it won't last long like that of 2018 and 2019

Another factor that is completely different than what we saw back then in 2017 is the state of the economy itself, right now there are fears among the population about whether or not the economy is going to recover, and this means they are looking for alternative investment which are not part of the traditional system to protect themselves in the case of a crash.

Gold and Silver have always been a good way to protect yourself in times of economic uncertainty but now Bitcoin and the market of cryptocurrencies in general is also part of this conversation, making more unlikely the possibility of a crash at the end of this year.

For all those preparing for the last bull run cycle what makes you think that things will work out exactly as that of 2017? Many are expecting bear market in 1st quarter of 2022 if there is anything that have surprised me since stock was a thing in my life it's cryptocurrency, things might work out differently this time

Not just this cryptocurrency market but all kind of markets are known for surprising us with unexpected things. So, we cannot remind 100% sure that bear market is going to happen from the first quarter of next year. I mean anything could happen but we need to to plan up accordingly rather than having some predefined plans which may not be suitable as per future market conditions.

I am expecting to have longer bull run this time compared to what we had in the previous bull run of bitcoin market. Bitcoin market must be the base of all cryptocurrency hence we need to follow how bitcoin is doing and then we may decide about altcoin stash.

It seems like that in this period, the bullrun doesn't happen in very skyrocket very quickly. But there are some steps of the bullish era for Bitcoin and also altcoins. Sometimes, there are still some market corrections in order to rise up higher again. But the rise may not as high as previous in 2017. And let's see whether the altcoin season will really happen in the end of this year like the previous bullish in 2017 or will start at the beginning of the next year.

I don't know but I feel like the market is more bullish than it was in 2017. At that time, we didn't have all the institutional investors and without mainstream coverage. So we're doing a lot better than 2017 even the market isn't increasing its value rapidly as with in 2017. Sometimes , slow and steady wins it.

I have been and experienced where in 2017 Bitcoin experienced a high increase and high Fomo,
yes, this year I think it is very different, because in 2021 mass adoption at a high level is very visible,
such as Tesla, Twitter, and Facebook which plunged into the  crypto world, not only them, Paypal has also joined this mass adoption,
yeah! 2021 vs 2017? of course very different friends!

That's one, there's no parabolic rise, others might be happy to see that kind of increase because obviously they are going to make good profits. But that is a sign of much worst thing that can come in the future, like what we've seen at December 2017, we reached all time high, but after that it's 3 years of crypto winter. So it's better that this 2021 rise will not be as dramatic as 2017, although we are expecting at least 6 digits, I hope it can be delayed in the first quarter of 2022. Slow and steady rise wins the game here.

2017 was very different from the 2021, in 2017 there were no so much Altcoins as compare to 2021 and in 2017 and now the price of Btc & Eth is too high then 2017 and this time many of new investors are taking interest.

yes you are right, the situation where everyone doubts whether the economy will recover or not is a plus for the crypto market. bitcoin is an alternative investment after the recent pandemic. and this is the difference compared to 2017. and don't forget about the NFT hype, many people who were not familiar with crypto are getting interested because of NFT. The current NFT ecosystem is very strong, and it looks like the hype will continue for some time to come. There are a lot of positives right now, and all of them will prevent a situation like 2017 from happening.

The big difference between 2017 and 2021 is bitcoin price can reach $68k as the highest price, although the price now gets a correction and down to $60k while ethereum is following to go down to $4,200. I believe that both bitcoin and ethereum will increase in these two months or next year again but we must have more patience following the prices. Yes, many new investors are attracted to the cryptocurrency now and they already bought many bitcoins at the beginning of this year. So crypto has a bright future more than we can expect because more investors will follow the previous investors.

[dupee419]

Aside from the market being bearish, the price difference between 2017 and 2021, aside from those I have mentioned, the biggest difference today and then is that more investors are interested investing in crypto compared to investing in banks and start-up projects IRL, investors prefer going crypto since they know how big the profit is in crypto, also, social media has changed throughout the 4-year mark, it is much easier nowadays to promote your coins as there are so many platforms to choose from, the difference back then and now is that there are fewer platforms back then compared to today's crypto market.

Back in 2017, blockchains shot up; this year, NFT and Defi shot up. And the most generous projects win (Uniswap, 1inch) they are not stingy with airdrops. Greedy projects lose because they do not have a loyal community.

I believe the current market conditions are very strong and the market will not crash again after 2017, the market skyrocketed in 2017 because of the many successful projects during the ICO, even many projects that could achieve a hardcap of up to $100 million only when presale or less than a month, while Now the market is skyrocketing due to the large number of big companies and millionaires investing in crypto.

Without a doubt the market of NFTs is strong however we must not forget that back in the day we had icos and they looked to be as strong if not stronger than the NFT market, and yet the ico market crashed hard and it never recovered, and while things like ieos and other forms to raise fund eventuality appeared they never reached the popularity that icos had back then.

So it is important to recognize that fact and understand that most of the time hype moves those markets and once a correction or a crash comes those that are the markets that will suffer the most, bringing down anyone that is invested in those kind of projects with them.

It's already much better than in 2017 in terms of.the hype and the time the hype is still exist. I am actually surprised to see in 2021, we havent seen any major crash and people often becomes more hype with new things that they found. But still, just prepare for any caution and big moves in christmas and holiday later, we might see something there.

Market is always known for not getting us what we are expecting in general. So, this time also we must need to get ready for big surprises like what we have experienced by the times of end of 2017 (like people were speculating about getting into $10k by end of 4th week of December 2017 but we got up to $19.5k by 2nd week of December 2017).

This time there are a lot of possibilities of continuous and of bull bun into upcoming year as well. This must be one of the non-speculated surprise we could expect from bitcoin market but not sure what future got to unfold for all of us with respect to bitcoin markets.

There is no need to compare these 2 different time periods. If the majority thinks that there will be a bear market in Q1 2022, then this may not happen. There is still a lot of positive news to come out on the ecosystems of Ethereum, Polkadot, Solana, Cardano, etc.
  And it will not necessarily be in a sary scenario with the movement of liquidity from bitcoins to altcoins.

There are similar cycles in cryptocurrencies, yes it is true. But as you said, there are many projects that develop their networks today, when I look at the roadmap of all of them, I see that there is a long way to go. This year's bull run is unlike any before. There is a market that attracts the attention of corporate companies and even governments. There have been various developments for this market. NFTs in particular have a lot of hype

If there are similar things are happening in this crypto space then how and why shitcoins are also being created? I mean devs must learn from others mistake and should avoid going for same type of coins as usually repeated/copy-craps are becoming shitcoins over the time. So, if devs are careful enough then they could serve us in fruitful way rather than just by having intention of scamming investors of this crypto space.

We need to agree that repeating of trend is happening in this crypto world in all kind of ways which is not limited to only progressive things. It means even scams also happening in repeated manner which must be a worrying sign for all crypto investors in all sense.

Well, I am very optimistic this time and the reason is mostly - huge dollar emission and crisis of offline business and investments we are seeing in 2020-2021. Also I think we are very close to mass adoption and real implementing of crypto in our lives. The future is near and this time this bubble can reach very high levels. BTC can hit 500K easily. Imho.

[MadeMen]

The cryptocurrency industry is quite unpredictable, the 2017 bull run should not be a yardstick for predictions as several things have changed in the past two years. Many more people are involved in the cryptocurrency space and the market capitalisation has increased significantly. It's best to unlearn the market situation of 2017 and approach the market with a new perspective.

If we compare what happened in 2017 with what happened this year, it is indeed different. Investors who joined this year were already fully
prepared, because they learned from what happened in 2017. Nowadays most investors are much more patient with volatile price movements
in the market, while in 2017 there was panic after the market crash. So when the price of Bitcoin managed to reach ATH, then experienced
a correction below the price of $60k, not many investors panic. Because they know Bitcoin will only go down temporarily and will come back up again.
Moreover, in 2021 there will also be quite a number of institutions joining, this makes the popularity of crypto increase and makes trust in crypto
increase. Even now there are countries that have legalized Bitcoin as a legal tender, meaning that the adoption process is quite massive.
With so many positive things that have happened this year, I don't think it's possible this year to repeat what happened in 2017.
