It might seem like a lot of people are still here, but actually there is only a small amount of us left. When things kick off again, all of us here will be the small minority of people that others go "omg you stayed in crypto through 2018/2019, how could you tell it wasn't dead?"
>not using this period of nothingness to work on improving your own life while accumulating BTC
Nathan Green
is there are worse feeling than knowing about crypto since 2012 and not buying until 2017? KNOWING the potential it had, but never buying because.. life. The universe punishes this kind of retardness, i dont think it will give us another chance
Brayden Hill
It's funny when Litecoin crashed from $50 down to like a dollar I told myself I would buy a bunch, but during the boredom of 2015 I just never got round to it.
>Not going away ever again
This is what I told myself when it was going to 20k etc, I was like 'Never again will I doubt Bitcoin or get bored with'. I also realized that the bull markets are not actually the best time for getting rich off of this, the best times to get rich are the boring times, the bearish times. It's obvious when you think about it, it's the same with any other investment.
Yes brother! Me too, I am attaining positions in coins like a mercenary.
I left in 2015 as well. Sold off most of my holdings. Alts were dead and most people really doubted if we'd ever see new highs again.
This time feels a bit more optimistic
Nathaniel Ortiz
yes knowing about crypto since 2011 and not buying til 2017
Evan Perez
I still had some holdings from 2015 fortunately, I had to scan through tonnes of junk on my pc to find the wallet.dats lol, lucky I didn't lose them desu. Still though, I had some holdings but not enough. Making little bit of money is ok, but with crypto it is important to seize upon the opportunity to get huge wealth.
Brody Miller
equally justed in my book
Henry Myers
I knew about it in 2012 too as I watched Adam Kokesh and Cantwell etc, the Libertarian/new hampshire scene, got involved in the 2013/2014 bull run. It's not too late to get involved now.
Joseph Gray
I re-bought all my holdings in 2019 pretty much (sold during the last bull run though didn't get the top).
Leo Adams
>Have you ever invested in crypto? yeah i bought btc at $300
Luke Diaz
How much profot made? Do you hold any crypto now?
Sebastian Cooper
wish i got earlier, obviously for the money but also because of how much of a fucking newb i was with markets when i got in in 2017, costed me what couldve been very decent gains during the bull
Adrian Miller
profit*
Of course we all do,
Henry Young
i bought 2-3, bet sports with them, still have 2. not sure how this is relevant.
Carson Fisher
do you think the bullrun shitcoins will pump again? im thinking a new round of shitcoins will emerge during the next bull and those will be the real gainers, IF we get another bull..
Jose Ramirez
I have also learned a lot through this last cycle also
Because I am trying to tell if you just want to buy more lol.
Blake Moore
>do you think the bullrun shitcoins will pump again? im thinking a new round of shitcoins will emerge during the next bull and those will be the real gainers, IF we get another bull..
Quite likely for sure, you can already see some new coins popping their heads up that seem like good candidates for the next bull run. I am investing in some of the alts that did well last bull season and crashed, though some will likely be legitimately dead.
Jonathan Lewis
Stuff like Litecoin, Eth seem quite safe. Also, due to the sheer impact Ripple had on normies I would think this might be safe. Coins like RVN and BTT seem like possible candidates for future bull run moon missions, I still need to do some research actually.
I already have a fair amount of holdings, but in the next few months I hope to further research relatively new coins and then proceed to buy them.
Liam Clark
Grin shitcoin will pump like no tomorrow in a bullrun
Jonathan Foster
Will definitely look it into it, it certainly was hot recently. Is it inflationary though?
Ryder Smith
You must look at NKN, FTM and Nimiq.

The path to success is often storm-tossed, don't let it deter you from seizing upon opportunities. You have also learned a lot during that time.
Samuel Johnson
>When things kick off again, all of us here will be the small minority of people that others go "omg you stayed in crypto through 2018/2019, how could you tell it wasn't dead?"
Nope, because you sure as fuck aren't getting another 100x bull market. If you hadn't been like the other plebs in 2015, you would have made the money. 2019 isn't 2015. This is a secular bear market and you won't be rewarded much for holding on this time. Every fucking retarded 14 year old and grand mother knows about Bitcoin and other cryptos now.
You won't get another 100x. You might get a 10x, but that assumes perfect performance and you won't be the best trader, so you can expect 5x over the next 5 years.
You missed the boat, get over it.
Austin Perry
You’re so insightful
Gabriel James
I aim to continue accumulating this year into next and hold out until around Q4 2021 - Q1 2022
I first got in when BTC hit $1k for the 2nd time, ETH hit double digits for the 1st time, and the bull market started picking up steam. A good number of anons on Jow Forums at the time were very tired and weary from the long bear market. Many cashed out between $1k and $2k to just get their money back and gtfo of crypto.
At that point in time, a lot of alts were coming back to life but all the news and activity that surrounded them was pretty dated. When researching a lot of alts, the "latest news", their dedicated threads on bct, and the subreddits that at one point had a ton of activity appeared to stop dead in their tracks around 2014 or so. They were still down considerably (80%+) from their old ATHs and it appeared that most of them were truly dead. However, a lot of those alts not only came back but reached much bigger ATHs by the end of the year.
I used to chase pumps on bittrex, take my initial out plus a small profit, and then keep the remaining balance in the alt and send it to a desktop wallet. That way it was like I got the remaining alts for free while making a little BTC on the side. I still have a few of them (i.e. RDD, BAY) sitting around from 2 years ago. They're basically worthless at this point, but maybe that will not be the case forever.
I wouldn't mind throwing $100 a pop into random alts at this point in time. The risk is losing $95 for good and the potential reward is making $5k out of it for no reason 2.5 years from now. I've gotten much more interested in just building up a good BTC/LTC/ETH stack.
Good luck anons. Hopefully we can all make it.
Matthew Long
He is really sure of himself lel.
>I've gotten much more interested in just building up a good BTC/LTC/ETH stack.
This is a priority for sure, one a safe position is formed it is nice to add some more high risk/high reward coins.
>Good luck anons. Hopefully we can all make it.
Salute and see you in the bull run!
Alexander Gray

sounds about right. any of my normie friends that bought crypto bought the top and lost thousands in ETH in phishing scams. they are out now and "if it ever seems like the cryptos are on the way back up i'll get in again" >t. text from lackluster friend of mine.

Lmao I can related.
I new a guy that got in 2017. When BTC was $3600 the other day I mentioned I was looking at the BTC price thinking about an entry, he replied 'But the price has gone down so much'.
What kind of stupid bullshit FUD is this? I'm the most stupid "trader" you can imagine, yet I'm 3x since december in this bear market.

Even in this shitty bear market there are tokens doing 10X returns.
Those who say that there will never be a bull market again and that the opporunity of making money in crypto is over are literally retarded.
Jaxson Bennett
>But the price has gone down so much'. I hear this from every normie I talk to. The market psychology never fails
Elijah Watson
>The market psychology never fails
As certain as the seasons it would seem. Over the years I have learned to not doubt Bitcoin both crashing and pumping.
When these same people were saying they thought Bitcoin would go to $50k in 2018 I was expecting a crash just like in 2013/2014.
Christopher Davis
Yes. Being Satoshi Nakamoto and losing the hard drive with all your keys. Never having cashed out.

Mid 2017 fag here, and even I saw that BTC head and shoulders a mile off. I've been on Jow Forums more often than Jow Forums lately, because this board has been dead, which makes me think you're right- the boring phase is loading up and waiting
Ethan Anderson
if that happened he'd still buy in 2011 or 2012, he still probably made it
Based. What’s your buying plan? I plan on at least $1k every 2 weeks
Ian Diaz
LIKE ANYTHING IN LIFE IT HAS A CYCLE, Jow Forums HAS ALWAYS BEEN FILLED WITH SOME OVER I1 PEOPLE (SOME WERE REALLY SMART) . Jow Forums SHILLED DROP SHIPPING BEFORE THE NORMIES, GOT IN, NOW DROPSHIPPING DEAD Jow Forums SHILLED BITCOIN IN 2011 NOW BITCOIN DEAD Jow Forums SHILLED ETH IN 2014-2015 NOW ETH DEAD
YOU GOTTA FIND THE NET BUBBLE THING
CRYPTO IS DEAD, NORMIES GOT IN 2017.
IF YOU WANT ANOTHER 2017 THIS OVER HYPED SHARED DATABASE MUST BE USEFUL TO SOMENTHING INSTEAD OF DRUGGERS ON THE DARK WEB
SHARED DATABASE = NOT PRATICAL
CENTRAL DATABASE = PRATICAL
DISTRIBUITED DATABASE IS A WAY TO COMPLICATE AN EASY THING, IT'S A RESEARCH FOR A PROBLEM THAT BARLEY EXISTS
MOVE ON. THERE WON'T BE ANOTHER 2017
KEEP ON WITH YOUR LIFE, LEAVERAGE YOUR TALENTS, HUST SELL ARTON LINE, FETISH FUTANARI, FEETS OF FEMAL SCRATCHING BUGS FOR MANEY, ANYTHING BUT CRYPTO.
2017 WON'T COME BACK UNTIL BLOCKCHAINE DOESN'T SCALE AND ZOOMER DON'T BECAME 30 YEARS OLD BOOMERS

Nolan Turner
Thx just bought 100k
Aiden Moore
keep the btc I have, but move 5% of it into altcoin over time, spreading risk, starting over a month ago, sell those in 2021'sh because any shitcoin will make money in a bull market. I admit last time I missed the ICO hype though, so what think is IT for the next cycle
he does
Easton Gomez
>so boring So boring because you're stupid... this is the time you should be working/improving and testing your setup... when hysteria kicks back in you better be ready.

No, user, you will never profit of another 2017 like bull run, simply because you missed that!!!!
It's like WHEN SOME FAGS HERE SHILL A COIN, THIS PUMPS AND YOU BUY THE TOP
YOU MISSED THE PUMP, THERE'S NO GARANTEE YOU WILL SELL YOUR BAGS

so you're the oldfag of the pic? how much did you make dude?

IMAGINE - JUST IMAGINE STILL BEEING A FUCKING SHORT ATTENTION AND MINDED RIDDLED RED WOJAK POSTING, HERD MENTALITY FOLLOWING NEWFAG EMOTIONALLY ATTACHED & TIED TO BTC'S SHORTTIME PRICE MOVEMENTS 450+ DAYS INTO THE BEARMARKET IN THE YEAR OF TWO-THOUSAND-OF-NINE-TEEN. WHEN I LOOK AT THE WEEKLY/MONTHLY BTC CHART I SEE FUCKING SIDEWAYS FOR ATLEAST THE NEXT 12-18 MONTHS. IN THAT TIMEFRAME IT WILL HIGHLY UNLIKELY MAKING ANY CONSIDERATE MOVE IN ANY DIRECTION WHATSOEVER (WITHOUT OTHER MAJOR INTEFERENCE: BIG EXCHANGE HACK ETC.). AT BEST IT WILL EVEN GO DOWN SOME MORE. AFTER -85% THERE IS NOT MUCH TO GO DOWN EVEN FURTHER. NOW IS THE TIME WHERE SMART MONEY OBTAINS LIQUID CAPITAL AND FUCKING COMPLELTY DISREGARDS AND BLOCKS ANY CONSUMERIST HUMAN DRONE MADE EXCESS USELESS MARKET NOISE TO RESEARCH UP TO DATE ASSET CLASS FUNDEMENTALS IN ORDER TO FOCUS ON COMING UP WITH A SELF THOUGHT THROUGH CYCLE LONG GAME PLAN TO STICK WITH WITHOUT ANY EXCEPTIONS

many lost money during the phishing scams, it was so easy for scammers to scamm normans during 2017, crypto is not a creditcard or a bank, it's unregulated, many normans got easy phished
Beside the ico scam...
and with all this dot.com-like bubble, do you think they will came back with money on hand?
The stupidity of your normie friend that buys only if it goes up is unbelievable
Isaiah Brown
I just need one more bubble, and yeah I give it at least a 80% that's in the books. even with manipulation. we got willybot, tether, just imagine what the big boys can pull of in these still unregulated markets. in the bear market, price-wise, the best coins perform like shit but it works 2-ways: in the bull market the shitcoins perform the best. >take a small spread now and increase in coming months >just wait
Ayden Johnson
>I new a guy that got in 2017. When BTC was >$3600 the other day I mentioned I was looking >at the BTC price thinking about an >entry, he >replied 'But the price has gone >down so much'.
Seriously, why do they buy ONLY if it goes up? Is it a trend that normies have, really not esasperating. A lot of normies I know say the same
Maybe it's a phisicologic thing for them... they are normies and they feel some kind of ''secure'' ''rassured'' to be in somenthing with other normies, while they feel strange if they go into somenthing alone
that's why they buy amazon and apple
Leo Wright
what coins do you recommend fren? just whatever seems cool at the moment? im really not seeing eth at 1k or neo at 200 again..

>When these same people were saying they thought Bitcoin would go to $50k in 2018 I was expecting a crash just like in 2013/2014. The first pump to 30, then crash. Then the next pump to 120, then crash. Then the next pump to 1000, then crash Then the next pump to 20k, then crash. Each pump was approximate 10-20x, then crashed to about 2-5x the original price. I thought the cycle was done when it hit $1000, and was expecting the great flippening so I didn't invest. I'm glad I have a well paying and fun job. If I didn't, I'd beat myself up for having the opportunity, but being bored with it back during that second big pump.

I'd rather lose it all than miss another great bull run. It would eat my heart out
Grayson Clark
sold everything in 2015 here, because "crypto was dead" kek (kill me)
Bentley Phillips
Read the book " Crowd psychology " from Gustave Lebon. Yes normies are stupid. Group of normies = negative IQ.
Same. I'm trying to figure out a smart stop loss system that a whale doesn't briefly bounce on, causing you to sell at the bottom. I'm single right now with so much excess capital from my job, that I decided I'd put a large sum (20k) into crypto and see if I can do some extreme high-risk high-reward. I'm just not sure what to do if we blast off again. Selling at the top before any crash is the optimal result, but that could have a huge tax implication. That is of course if I can make it.

Tldr; disregard whiners, accumulate btc eth and a couple shitcoins of your choice.
Dominic Adams
Most people don't even know what Ethereum is. I even remember asking all the normies who were introduced to crypto in 2017 and not one knew what it was. There is still time to make it user; calm down.
Mason Reed
of course it matters, some moon more than others. How'd you know which ones? pure luck?
Oliver Gonzalez
>Most people don't even know what Ethereum is. I can verify this as well. Even with normies who knew btc and what it was vaguely had never heard of ethereum. We will make it. Definitely on spot analysis. This is boring and nothing seems to happen. Occasional pumps here and there but slow year to two of not much happening. Which is perfect for clever anons with jobs to accumulate. >I've been on Jow Forums more often than Jow Forums lately, becaus Interesting you said that as I've moved here from Jow Forums even though its slower. Just cant stand some of the recent stuff on there and its clear a lot of redditors based magapedes have a strong influence at the moment making discussion over anything trump a pain.

Same. New about btc since 2012. Thought it was cool began reading again in 2016 and it was like $400 bucks. Told my self I was gonna buy when it dropped a little. It never did . Also told my boss and dads friend a he laughed and called me a retard. Now he calls me bitcoin as a nickname at work and they all laugh at me. I'm not retarded they are.
