Things are worse in crypto since this thread was started, and that wasn't my expectation at all. I generally try to keep those low so that I'm not constantly disappointed, but this has turned out to be a very rough 2nd half of the year.
I *think* 2020 is going to be a better one for bitcoin and a lot of altcoins, but I don't *expect* it to be, and there is a huge difference between those two. If I expected a bull market next year, I would be backing up the truck and loading up on various coins, but I'm not doing that.
I try to keep my expectations in check because it is very easy to think about all the profits that the market of cryptocurrencies is going to give you and then begin to daydream about what you're going to do with that money and then when that doesn't happen you're going to be very disappointed
Precisely what I was trying to communicate about the way I think. And it isn't as tho you can predict what's going to happen with anything in the crypto market anyway.
