the global crisis will make many assets down, but not for crypto because crypto is not included. the effect might make many new investors come in when the crisis comes and make stocks fall and other assets such as gold also fall.
I'd argue that. The only crypto users that may not have a relation with fiat are actually miners. All the other basically enter crypto market with FIAT. And that's a direct relation. If you'd get into a personal financial crisis, you'd probably simply had no cash to spare for crypto (except for countries like Venezuala, where crypto hedges your funds) and this would directly affect your and crypto relation.

I only think that people will moves to crypto if there is financial crisis happen in many countries because they see that crypto will be the best option to solve the financial problem. The crypto itself can help the financial especially the people financial, so they can have another source to solve the crisis. The rest of that, I don't know because we don't see a massive financial crisis happen.
It looks like the downtrend on the financial system is inevitable. How do you think this will affect crypto? People used to refer to gold in the past, will they move to crypto this time instead?
I kinda think, that the upcoming crisis actually gives crypto a chance.

I guess the effect would be noticeable. Since there are a crisis, peoplevs investments would be going down all including stock markets and other markets but since cryptocurrency's value is not based on any other economic issues, i think its not included on the list.

Cryptocurrency will be the diversity of people who want to scape financial crisis. Banks won't be able to cater big profits to our investments, but in crypto, we have chances to gain as much as 10x of what we invest. That is if we accept the risk cryptocurrency has.

I've actually thought about something similar regarding whether a financial crisis will lead to more adoption for decentralised cryptocurrencies.
Right now, people may not see a need to adopt cryptos as they deem fiat to already suit their needs. But when price stability becomes an issue within a financial crisis, especially if there is rampant inflation, there will likely be waves of adoption from the countries that are worst hit as citizens there seek to hedge their wealth using an independent asset.
As you say, precious metals were the hedges of the past, however, I don't think that people will look to that as their first option should an inflationary crisis occur now as opposed to 40, 50 years ago as BTC essentially provides the same stability, except much more user friendly and convenient.
Bottom line is, I do expect bitcoin to outperform most traditional assets, including fiat cash, property, stocks, etc., if not see increased adoption and potentially even see some growth in the network.

What upcoming crisis are you talking about?
Other than that, this question has been beaten to death really (in fact, many times), so why come up with it again? Anyway, the short answer is we don't know. We don't even know whether there'll be a new financial crisis at all, to begin with. People have been preaching a new financial meltdown for a decade already, but we have yet to see the shit hit the fan for real. We are not even remotely close, apart from regular fear mongering (like insane debt levels)
The long answer is that if life becomes substantially worse overall (due to economic downturn or whatever), don't expect too much from cryptocurrencies as people under these circumstances will be looking for cash on hand, not coins. Further, gold and cryptocurrencies are on different ends of an investment yardstick, so if there is a gold run, it will be a run from fiat as well as crypto currencies (or any speculative assets, for that matter)
Well, FIAT currencies are not shitcoins to simply collapse and disappear. But the more people start using crypto the less volatile it actually should be over the time. Also, volatility is kinda solved via stable coins, so..

fiats can collapse but not as big as what we seen on cryptos and they wont dissapear either .

no meyt . the more people use crypto the more volatile it gets because people usually buy and sell at all times .

stable coins seems to be useful to secure the value of your cryptos but it cannot totally stop the volatility of the market .
but overall , i dont think that financial crisis affect crypto's because cryptos are only online and they arent somehow connected to fiats .
We only need to look at what happened in 3rd world countries like Venezuela and Zimbabwe when they experienced financial difficulties, when their fiat system failed, to see what will happen in first world countries, when it also fails. The citizens of that country started to buy bitcoins to protect the value of their fiat currencies.
You do not have to speculate about this, because we already have several examples of what happened in other countries.

This depends on what causes the crisis. I believe the next crisis will come in the next year or two, and it will result in collapse of fiat as we know it. If dollar dies,the world economy will be hurt as hell, and it will be hard to think that new fiat can solve the problem. Euro can collapse as well because of countries like Italy. When fiat is done, the most natural solution seems to turn to cryptocurrencies, since they are naturally limited and decentralized. Yes, volatility is a huge downside, but at least hyperinflation is barely possible, and there are no authorities that can really mess things up and cause another crisis.

By crypto could make financial world more better with using bitcoin and altcoin as payment transaction many benefit getting seller and buyer where their transaction only needed short time and could be more faster than other payment ways.
Financial crisis won't make any impact upon bitcoin in the short or in the long, as it is associated with technology only the issues that arise with the blocks will create some sort of congestion. The previous thing happened with the transaction fee, which further slowly got resolved. Crypto market is independent of other digital markets that don't function solely.
Cryptocurrency can't replace gold! She will take its place in the pc sphere. She will be used for online shopping, will be used for transfers between accounts via payment cards, etc. There will also be an opportunity to invest in it in new banks, as now they do with foreign currencies, will buy btc, ethereum, waves, universe(uni)...

Another financial crisis may have a positive impact on cryptocurrencies. Already during the crisis in 2008, people showed looking for financial independence and limiting the influence of banks. Therefore, the financial crisis may be a great opportunity for crypto to increase the importance of financial markets.
The financial crisis will affect crypto negatively more.
My assumption is based on this scenario, a financial crisis will cause people to be cash trapped and those in cryptocurrency may start selling their holdings in order to meet up with their financial challenges .Some of those who would want to sell ,may be selling at a miserable low price which constitute dump.

Well it could give crypto a chance, but I guess for casuals investors, I don't think that they will go full crypto. I don't know if you have been in last financial crisis in 2008, but based on my experience I needed cash that time because I lost a job and have to pay lots of mortgage so I think the opposite could happen as well. Casuals selling their beloved crypto because they needed money to feed and bring food in the table. But for those who have tons of money, probably, they would go and put something in crypto as a hedge, but I'm sure they will spread it out amongst gold and other precious metal. So if you are thinking and wanting to survived the next great economic crisis, now is the time to invest so at least you have have a lot of advantages to say the least if ever it will happen in the future. You need to act, not react.

The whole thing could collapse and it would have no impact on btc, 1 btc = 1 btc
It's possible that they will move to crypto. The possible upcoming crisis will make these investors look for a way to save all of their wealth to avoid further losses. If it's not with gold or precious metals, they'd probably go with precious cryptocurrencies (bitcoin, eth).
Those left investments that they got would be transferred somewhere, if ever there's something left for them.

When the system is failing, and the mainstream is looking for new alternatives or opportunity. It's surely gold and silver is would be their main priority because it already experiences those old dark days too. But with such recent condition when the decentralized digital currency is happening, and being considered for the people because of its openness, decentralization in general. I'm sure its people will have a thought to use cryptocurrency to solve the problem. In exchanges, the market will get a new flow.
If there will be another big financial crisis that is going to happen then most like that the people will jump to cryptocurrency again and different coins will gain significant value over time.
People won't jump to crypto because of some aspect of the financial crisis a lot seem to ignore!!
When a crisis starts, consumption declines, jobs are lost, people lose their source of income. What are you going to do when you see your job is in danger or you're already unemployed? Are you going to take all your money and wire them to Kraken?
Let's be serious here!!! Are you going to sell your house or not pay your mortgage and go full crypto?
One thing's for sure though, the overpriced and overvalued stock and derivatives market would come to a severe crash to even things out, and that is where I won't place my money on until after the said event.
As I was saying, when all the economy is crashing down, banks are going bankrupt, deposits are locked, shares are worthless, people are unemployed....who is left to invest in cryptos?
