We are at disbelief

I'm actually buying right now, I cashed out 30% in december last year and I've been accumulating my position back these past couple weeks
this way next time I cash out 30% my taxes are cheaper due to a higher buy in point and I still have some money left over to spend on shit I don't need

pretty much. Bulls are max deluded.

time flies, we've been in a bear for 8 months/3 quarters, the last bull market was from summer 15 all the way to winter 17, 2 and a half years. i think we'll see a few more months of a bearish market, even if the prices don't decrease much more.

but as far as retraces go. were about 2/3rds down, which is right at the point where bitcoin normally bottoms out give or take 20%

That's req not bitcoin.

goodluck bitcoin holders, may god release his bull seed on to you and have pity on us altcoiners. May he also forgive nocoiners for their transgressions.

HAHA FOUND IT

alts have always risen in a bull market with bitcoin, the problem altcoin bagholders have is that their shitcoins are fighting for liquidity with all the others, and they will always fall out of favor for a hotter alt and get left behind. the only way out of that cycle is to find a niche where your network is actually depended on, like bitcoin, and most recently ethereum.

random icos, funding tokens, app tokens, chinese coins, are all destined for zero at some point in the future, through competition, oversupply, or most commonly a coin that's only useful to pay a fee or service for one niche network that never sees any real adoption.

the myth of the long term altcoin hold is going to continue to burn people for as long as cryptocurrency exists.

still in denial

lol the post literally says this is a sucker's rally - too funny yet accurate when comparing the correlations in charts and sentiments - good find OP

jan crash - now has been complacency, because a significant portion of people are convinced there will be another run this year and everything will be fine

it won't be fine

when they realize this and the market drops to sub 100b market cap with multiple dozens of tokens going dark, we can consider it a true correction

yep I agree, 95% of the people on reddit still talk about how this is normal for crypto, everything is fine, just learn to hodl, blablaa.

It's all about BTC dominance, atm. imo.

you're missing the point, most of the dumb money has loaded up on shitcoins that will be going to zero, the crypto cap as a whole isn't going to dip drastically other than representative of those shitcoins losing all of their volume.

btc dominance is a fake metric, because the only data for it is the fake marketcap of all of the premined and "locked up" shitcoins from ICOs and premines. volume is what you should be looking at, anybody can create an ICO and suck up a few million in cap away from bitcoin, and we've had a few hundred of those pop up.

the important distinction is the vast majority of the altcoin market is a zero sum game, while the market for coins like btc/eth and < 3-5 others is not.

yep. everyone still talking about

You absolute retards have been announcing the "disbelief" stage for months now. You are wrong this time too. Get fucked.

bitcoin has so many centralised die hard hodlers that market cycles dont work on it.
there is no situation where the majority of them get depressed unless bitcoin goes back to 3 digits

What stage is LEH at?

2019 bullrun at this rate

alts are competing for the same small pool of money from amateur speculators/gamblers hoping to get rich. bitcoin/ethereum (to an extent) are attracting money that would otherwise go nowhere near other cryptocurrencies.

thats why alts are in a constant cycle of coins dying and new ones being created, as speulators keep moving from coin to coin depending on how profitable they think it'll be to trade. there is a long tail of bagholders that end up holding onto these alts for years as the volume evaporates, but the main pool of money is just moving from alt to alt.

...until there are no more greater fools to pass the bags onto, and your yearly returns don't exceed sp500 boomer investments. This WILL happen it will be within 10 years. Then crypto will be seen for the useless slow motion bubble that it is. All people talk about is the price, never the usefulness so once that has disappeared as an interesting metric, it will be a slow bleed like gold 2012 to now.

I remember everybody saying 'buy gold' on pol in 2012. I told them all we were at the top of the market but they ignored the voice of reason, gave into hype driven bullshit and now have the heaviest bags going.

This is Bitcoin's fate. Alts will come and go but will simply mirror the gamble of penny stocks.

>lower highs
>lower lows

b-b-bullrun any minute bois

that's only the case if bitcoin remains a niche speculative investment and not a network for valie transfer, or the underlying backing value for some layered network for value transfer.

Like how deluded can you be to think that a bullring will come. What exactly makes you think like that. What major updates will come for bitoin to rise up to 60k ? Nothing . Just your sunk-cost-fallacy

>updates
don't confuse yourself thinking tech is a driving factor behind cryptocurrency valuations, that's a pure finance/social phenomenon

Interesting perspective on alts, but pre 2017 alts were pretty much BTC clones/forks. There are numerous ICO projects which are trying to build something innovative whether under Ethereum or in its own chain. If the 2017 ICOs die out then id have to agree with you, but that still remains to be seen although the market seems to be on its way there.

and how many coins pre 2017 have survived/broken out since then? the same will go for ICOs, only much harsher, because not only are they competing for liquidity and users, but when they inevitably don't get them there's a centralized team to disband to put the nail in the coffin. for pre-ICO altcoins like litecoin, there's always the possibility that it might work out in the end (even though it won't), but that's not the case when the small team doing the work decides to call it quits.

but the difference between a "decentralized" coin vs an ICO is irrelevant anyway, they both follow the same ethos, to obsolete some other coin or fill a certain niche better than before. their survival is still entirely dependant on them getting that critical mass of non speculative users before somthing better than them comes out.

it's only going to get harder and harder to break out of that cycle, and alts will continue fallnig faster and faster, as they have been. i dont think it'll be long before most speculators give up (as the vast majority will keep losing money again and again on these projects) at a rate higher than new ones can be brought in causing an extended winter.

lightning network wich will result in low fees and near instantaneous offchain transactions for bitcoin.
its already a store of value. next is that its a good payment method for fucking coffee and burgers. last is regulation, which is also being worked upon.

BTC ETF is basicly garuanteed somewhere between now and 2019 in the USA. Most likely a BTC ETF will be available in the EU even faster.
BAKKT payment processing/investment into BTC with Starbucks and Microsoft partnership.
Samsung starts accepting BTC.

bascily, BTC is going to kill all alts and all fiats and if you dont hold at least one BTC you're basicly retarded.

op is right
the value of cryptocurrencies is so fucking obvious lmao, they are money free from dirty government intervention.

If you aren't hodling/accumulating you fucked up.

I've been here a long time, rarely post but I have made a fortune off of crypotocurrency and I have no plans of stopping now.

Remember, the fundamentals are strong. Fiat is going to implode and we are all going to be VERY rich when the world is forced to adopt cryptocurrencies.

its fucking obvious unless you are a pleb redditard normie idiot who doesn't see what is happening in the revolutionarycryptospace

capitulation, wait for the golden bulrun of LEH in 2042

Eth won't happen dude, at least not for now, Bitcoin is too obviously manipulated and unless we get some resemblance of a "real market" we won't get an etf. I don't see it as bad news tho, Bitcoin have been doing fine without this "serious" stuff for years, and more traditional exposure means more restrictions in the end. We need to get rid of LN, that's a must. When that happens (please cap this) we will start again.

No more lightning network, no more manufactured limitations, that's all we need.

What's up with this retarded meme? Just look at the chart to see that it isn't.

A pathetically small number. I know for a fact that a vast majority of the 2017/18 projects will die, but they have better chances to survive than pre 2017 coins, since they are a lot better funded, have real partnerships and advisors, have professional teams and are not just "pet projects". Pic related are some "high cap" coins from 3 years ago. I dont have to check, but im sure most of these are just a variation of BTC with a single developer and no real world partnerships.

yeah if those all came out in 2017 most wouldn't have broke into top 100 let alone top 30

lol, delusionals like you are so profitable.

PLEASE proselytize as many of your friends as possible with your views.

Wild, fantastical speculation. You people are worse than goldbugs.

I've been hearing about the DEATH OF FIAT for decades.

Bitcoins becomes more valuable when information becomes more valuable

this thread is proof we're in the denial phase

no one is in denial, its realism

bitcoin is a deflationary asset, therefore the price can only go up when the limited supply

say it with me biz. this is disbelief. the replies in this thread support it. too much bobo salt, every pull back will be a bear trap. golden bull is approaching.

what does any of this have to do with bitcoins

i agree it's the most likely scenario but that doesn't mean it can't go to $5k before that. so accumulate carefully!

its over.

Got onto crypto March 2017

Reached peak portfolio of $1.7m in Jan. Held like a pleb until today... just sold it all for $500k... I won't let the market makers take everything from me.

Nice so it’ll go to $100k then that $100 then back to $8200 you really thought that one through huh

Bitcoin is the most mainstream of all of the coins touched by normie investors. When market conditions suggest normie investors might have more reason to buy into Bitcoin, THE PRICE GOES UP BECAUSE PEOPLE BUY IT and subsequently there are fewer on the market.

LMAO imagine the bagholders when it's at 100$, down 99,9%

Nigga are you blind??? we never got out of complacency.

I mean I'm not a conspiracy person, but think about it. Nothing but bullish news, ETF most likely going to be approved, and yet we are nearing 8 red days in a row.

8 red days. Even during the last bear market, it was never THAT bad.

What's the only conclusion? That this is the final shake out, and this is completely planned. The whales sold 8200 and are not buying back in, and when they don't support the price, it bleeds.

I truly believe this is the last bearish cycle before we shoot back up again and break 12k. I don't know where the bleeding will stop, but undeniably, there will be a day where we bottom up and start going up again. Same thing happened to MJ stocks, same thing will happen here.

Think about it. If the ETF was going to be rejected, the news would be positive, they'd be pumping this as high as it could go before selling the top, then waiting a couple of years for this to recover from the inevitable crash.

full retracement =/= rally

Looks like the Bart between hope and optimism for me

you're retarded, TA is all that matters in bitcoin

seems like everyone thinks it's going to rally right now

that means if we were contrarians we should short

just drop from university meme and hold until BTC is worth $1,000,000 then go retire in PR

Jow Forums is not contrarian

it used to be before gamergate

now having the opinion of your typical boomer is considered edgy

nah. Mt Gox guy has no intention of crashing what made him rich, it wouldn't make any sense. I'd be more worried if I held BCH b/c BCH doesn't have the liquidity to absorb sell volumes like he could bring.

You got the joke, well done.
