I have been saying it all along. Only invest what you can afford to lose. We all know the rise is unsustainable in the short term, people's fingers will get burned and lots will lose out.

Please only invest what you can afford to lose.

I think if you invested a little bit and now it become a large sum of money then it's better to cashout and put it in something less volatile than cryptocurrency for exemple by buying a house, or go back to school, education is a great investment in my opinion.

What if you earn than you can afford to lose? I invested 1000 $ and now I have much more. I want to continue increase my capital and save it.

100% agree.

Bitcoin keeps growing all times high...BTC

I think that we might have a house bubble situation of 2008. When everybody had gone buying up thinking that it is bulletproof. Relying on analysts saying that bull market is here for the next decade. There were people who kept chanting that it would keep growing and house potential is nowhere near its ultimate height. A majority of big bankers and big speakers all were seemingly convinced of it.

Then it crashed and everybody suffered. Except for few. Except for very few who analyzed it rationally and predicted the fall accurately. These few made huge returns by shortening the housing market years ahead.

I'm not the first person to voice a concern about the potential crash of "air currencies" (crypto). General advice from conservative consultants is not getting in and keeping it safe. But I wouldn't post in this forum if I thought this was a good advice.

What I'm really interested in is how to make money out of the potential crash. Those people who bet against housing market started doing it a long time before the actual crash. Years ahead. The big risk is to loose all your money while doing it. So I won't go shorting bitcoin for a year because that's just crazy.

But I'm keen to start a discussion to figure out where to put money to multiply them ten-fold in a possible crash scenario that will hurt 90% of other crypto portfolios. This bubble burst might only come in 6 months, 12 months, 24 months - nobody knows. But I want to be prepared to gain on it.

What are your ideas on how to play the edge and be ahead  

only invest what you can afford to lose.

It's basically impossible to say when a bubble will burst. If you sell much before, you'll loose on possible profits, if you sell after, you'll loose because of the falling price. But you need a crystal ball to see when is the ideal time to sell.
In any case, I think that what we see now is just an expected correction after huge growth. I'd say it will stabilize soon and will continue to grow again from the current position.

Hi everybody, yeah it's a very important idea about diversifying in cryptocurrency and also thinking ahead of the crowd. I myself participate in CryptF ICO  and they are creating cryptocurrency backed by stocks and bonds. Essentially if everything goes haywire they will sell a lot more of their stable coins and their company token will go in price quite a bit.
Generally their idea is described in this video - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=07LBDmzgSuE  

And their ANN thread is here - https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/annico-cryptf-cryptocurrency-backed-by-stocks-and-bonds-2318409.

I don't think we are anywhere near a bubble as yet, google search the dot com bubble comparison to bitcoin and you will see.  Good luck and as a wise person mentioned earlier, only invest what you're willing to lose.

How can there be a bubble - what idiot what invest their life savings into Bitcoin. Like the user stated above invest what you can afford only.
