Its 26 months of bear market, a situation which never happened before in bitcoin's history.

Why do you keep repeating this?

The 2014-2015 bear market was much longer than any other in history.

2013 top: week of Nov 25 2013
2013 top broken: Feb 20 2017

2017 top: Dec 11 2017
Today's date: March 11 2020

No matter how you define a bear market (% gains from the bottom, when the previous ATH was broken) the 2014-2015 one was longer. If BTC hasn't broken the 2017 ATH by the end of 2021, then we can talk. Until then, you're just spreading misinformation.

He's (maybe) worried about his coins not being sold even at the purchase price or might he getting worried about the halving that's stepping in?!?

@OP, I believe I'd literally not touch BTC below $8600 even if I'm getting it now at a bargained value because $8600 is such a key level for me that, once broken upwards, will get BTC into a bullish state once again.

What people are forgetting that bitcoin is already scarce, the problem is there isn't really enough people who are willing to buy from this price. We are already at around 8 thousand dollars per bitcoin, that is quite scarce and getting closer to gold levels now, hell compared to gold coins we are less available and more expensive so we are almost already there if you think about it.

So, there is nothing to worry about, even the current price for the next 50 years without moving too much is fine because bitcoin is at an excellent price to be adopted globally, we just want too much out of it. If you are expecting a currency to move from 100 dollars to 100k dollars in 5 years (2015 to 2020) that means you might be expecting too much from that currency.

This is really a good opportunity to invest and earn profit eventually but not all people do get such logic in cryptoindustry not only in Bitcoin. Everytime there is a downfall, many people are panic selling, because they thought in such way they would get away from profit loss but the fact is, they got away from the opportunity to earn profit someday, once recovery start. An investor's responsibility is to just wait patiently because no one knows when will the uptrend occur, but one thing is for sure,  after a downfall in the price of Bitcoin, there is a huge possibility that its price will again increase, the only perk is to wait without certainty, but for me, that is not a big thing, because it would be worthy.
Yes, I have made my mind to buy some coins at this point of time. Crypto is giving again an opportunity to buy the dip and make some money when the price increases.

This is something an investor could be easier said than done. "buy low, sell high" right? I was wondering why there are still some investors complaining about their massive losses lol.
Anyway, we are all aware of this basic strategy, but it's just inevitable not to think and worry about when the price starts to decline continuously, like how the market is currently reacting today. This is where the weak hands losses their patience as well as their invested money.
Its never been an easy thing to be done, it might be so basic as it sounds but actually doing it is the hardest part as a trader.
We wont able to know on when is the right spot to accumulate and when is the right time to sell off. Profitability will somewhat vary
or depend on how people or investors do react into their current position. Buy and hodl doesnt work from time to time and even
bitcoin wont really give out such guarantee.
We just cannot blame those people who are selling early, and we should never do so. But we should otherwise remind them to HOLD and to wait patiently. Seeing market prices fall, is indeed stressful, so in some way, we should understand such instances.
Yes, I have made my mind to buy some coins at this point of time. Crypto is giving again an opportunity to buy the dip and make some money when the price increases, big whales have already started to buy coins from the panic sellers and they will make some big profits if the market go high. So guys keep in mind and plan accordingly.
Choose only those coins in which you have a feeling of a price increase in the future and avoid investing to any crypto that you would see. More likely, quality over quantity - kind of mindset.

Some people just cannot hold in the situation we are living right now. A lot of people I know have invested all their savings in BTC a few months ago and today they're out of cash, but they need it to prepare for a potential pandemic. I have personally taken a few days off the forum and the internet itself, because I want to focus on preparing for a possibly really bad situation. Investors have a lot of reasons to sell right now. I fortunately do not rely on Bitcoin 100%, which means I can still live without selling a single satoshi even if the price dumps to $100.

I am now trying to get back into the habits I used to have a few weeks ago. The virus outbreak made me move and add some other stuff to the top of my list of priorities.

Don't worry, times will come when Bitcoin will grow back up. It's very understandable that a ton of people sell for various reasons.

With whales robbing small investors, it will be difficult to convince people to buy, OP.

Manipulation is that what it says why small investors become victims always,and the weak hand holders also the target.
but now that we are in $7k level?yeah i think this is the best time to buy more and Hold before the bull starts to push the market.
Many are saying that buy more and hold because they believe that bitcoin will gonna goes up. So they still buying a more and they hold it for along time. So buy more and do hold it for you to get a good profit.
the question is if you have capital to buy,but what about those small investors that only relying on the market Bull to have another capital to buy again.

Robbing is illegal, how do you define the way they rob small investors?
This market has been so risky even at the very beginning, so investors who tried their luck here should be aware of the risk and they should also be aware that there are whales who have the power to manipulate the price, so they can make a strategy on that and will not blame the whales in the end if they fail.

You got it right, with whales who knows more than those ordinary and small players, they are very good from how they've played the market.
Many different opinions are taking place from each types of traders and investors, you can find this bearish movements as opportunities but if
you are not careful you can also lose more once the whales dumped more assets and wait for weak holders to follow.


Its 26 months of bear market, a situation which never happened before in bitcoin's history.
I'm wondering if bitcoin will have the same destiny of gold and silver. These assets are in a eternal bear market since they were introduced to paper speculation.
Bitcoin now have paper speculation, like CME and BAKKT, and we are seeing the results. For the first time, bitcoin is not repeating the patterns from the previous cycle. Even the logarithm scale got busted.

I might do that when the price of bitcoin is below $ 7500, but given the current price, it seems quite difficult to expect it that way. if the decline continues, I think it is a great opportunity, I have thought about this since seeing the price go down. however, the potential for an increase at halving really does exist.

lol, buy and hold? no i say sell but when the price is still up (meaning above $9k) not when the drop ended and price reaches a moderate stability at what is essentially the bottom of that previous drop. it is really annoying to see so many panic sellers start selling after there was a 20-25% drop to push that last 5-10% on top of the already down price and push it lower and lose money.
right now i consider the market to be heavily manipulated which is always the time when i personally stay away from the market and let the shitshow end before coming back.

Don't miss out...i swear anything under 8000 is a straight up steal...

 It seems very bearish. I am wondering to sell.. I hope you are right. I bought near the price of 10000$. Angry

Why not still hold? You've came to buy bitcoin knowing the risk, do you? -Volatile market. And this dump is some kind of correction for upcoming bullish. Anyway, if you'll gonna sell your btc right now, you'll be deficit. I know your feeling but there is always an option. HOLD. I can see you are new in crypto, disregard fomo and continue to hold. It is not forever bear, please remember that. Bulls are just in the corner and you can still hit that target profit of yours above $10k.

Nobody is getting robbed. Impatient BTC investors are giving their money away to patient investors. In a nutshell that's how all markets work. Retail investors get fleeced because they greedily buy tops and panic sell bottoms instead of buying and holding.

Most people can't trade markets profitably. When it comes to strong investments like BTC, they should stick to DCA and just HODL for the long term.

Was thinking bitcoin below $10,000 gives great buying opportunity, here we are now, bitcoin even dump more and it could dump further, but do we still have to wait for that?  No, let's buy now if the if the intention is to hold longer and even in short term, at the current price most likely we will get good profit once the market bounces back again.
