At the current price of bitcoin is rather making sad, it was dropping even more in the last few days.
Perhaps many people selling their bitcoin, and then another people following because they get worried if the price will go down again.

I am an optimist and recommend you to share my position. If all start selling the cryptocurrencies, the market will fall critically. Let us support Bitcoin and our favorite altcoins and invest in them.

Unfortunately, people's mentality don't work this way.
Just about every single "investor" has lost a lot of money.
That is because they jumped in during last years all time high bull run or did most of their trading during that time.
Now, all throughout 2018, they have seen their portfolios shrink in value.

So they are in panic mode.
They are hodling for dear life and waiting to get their value back.
They won't invest more money because they don't want to lose more money.

Of course, the best way to recover is actually to invest more, but people act off of desperation than strategy.
Especially now, since prices are so low, everyone should be reinvesting to reduce their cost per token average.

This is will always depend upon the situation as there are thousands of Altcoins in the market like the certain Altcoins has no more market activity then better to sell it to a better coin like Bitcoin or if the certain altcoin has the big potential and the team are working hard to attract more people to invest therefore it will be the best to not to sell the asset. Buying and selling Altcoins are normal in which we called it trading.

It seems many people are speculating the rise of BTC and therefore are transfering value from alts to BTC. But if you want BTC, buy it with FIAT! Fresh new funds are needed on the market! You are dumping alts making prices dump hard and maybe are speculating you will be able to buy more of the alts later on, but what idiot will selll it to you at that dumped price?? So if you want BTC, buy it with FIAT or at least don't expect to buy back more of the alts for cheap!
yes I agree with you. We need fresh money into cryptocurrency. Using your alts to buy bitcoin only redistributes the investment already into crypto. It doesn't help the growth that much.

Unfortunately, I have to admit you're right. Of course, investing in Bitcoin or Altcoins is a purely individual matter, but the fact that the whales manipulate the market - you can not argue with this.

If you are worried about the future of bitcoin, you should understand that it doesn't matter what assets bitcoin is bought for. Overall trading volumes are more important for its growth, which are increased even during trades for altcoins. The fall in its price may be caused not by buying with altcoins, but from mass selling bitcoins for fiat money. But this requires huge amounts of bitcoins, which can be sold only by few persons.

Why not, its choice to use bitcoin to buy alts then sell alts when gaining profit. All traders do this to accumulate more bitcoin. Its a strategy to make profit. Unless, you have a big capital to inject in the market and long term investor, use your fiat.

Unfortunately, most of the existing cryptocurrencies have not proved to be of practical use in real life, so it is understandable that many are using them exclusively as instruments of short-term speculation, and this is more evident during these bearish periods in which the dominance of bitcoin has increased considerably, as a clear signal that investors have found in the btc a safe haven in times of crisis.

Therefore I think it is not such a bad idea to exchange our altcoins for bitcoins, because experience has shown that in the medium term all the altcoins have tended to depreciate, thereby benefiting His Majesty Bitcoin.

I am not selling my altcoins when price dips so much like the current situation. Now is the time to inject some fresh fiat into the market. Wish I had taken more profits during bullrun.

Do not agree with you.
Why you can´t buy BTC with alts? It is my main strategy, exchange alts to BTC, or, unfortunately ETH. But now, I blame myself for ETH, it would much better to go only for BTC.

And, I got a moto - do not invest fiat in crypto.
That's right, I also disagree with this because my personal goal of being a prize hunter is to raise capital so I can buy BTC. because we know that Bitcoin can die at any time, it is advisable to buy BTC with a prize coin.

Totally agree these people just kill the market, so that increase the domination of the bitcoin market. We need new money in the market, then the market will turn and we will all make a profit.

I think it's too late to sell altcoins, this should have been done earlier. Now is the right time to buy altcoin.

 So if you want BTC, buy it with FIAT or at least don't expect to buy back more of the alts for cheap!...Although the main point is to always check the prices when pumping or dumping, all cryptos highly rely on the price changes of BTC...

Well good point. It is better to buy bitcoin with new fiat funds. Whenever btc is pumped, the alts tend to drop significantly because many people are not afraid to sell their alts cheaply to get btc coz they feel the btc value will increase. This is not good for the global market.
