I think it's natural because they don't have a good trading base yet

I think that they do not have not only a good trading base but also experience in trading otherwise they would not panic

If McAfee would have ever been right, we would have been already millionaires, as he predicted many times Bitcoin will reach 1 million $.

This guy does nothing but taking advantage of his popularity and takes money to promote all kind of sh*t tokens or gives unrealistic predictions to be visualized by naive people hoping to get rich overnight.

What's your take john mcafee's view?




Well, I'm not a fan of John Mcafee but I think he was right just that he was too harsh with his words. It is natural to panic with Bitcoin under $9500 but the panic should be well controlled in order not result in panic sales because Bitcoin always recovers. This year has been a great year for cryptocurrency market as compared to last year and investors must anticipate for the higher prices in Q4 2019.

John McAfee has the penchant to speak off whatever he has in his mind without necessarily thinking twice. I don't like the guy speaking garbage sometimes. But it seems he says the truth with that. Indeed, only a fool panics when Bitcoin goes under $9,500 when it has already conquered the 5 digits countless of times.

Sometimes this man speaks some sense, especially when he talks about how lame the government is.

Yeah, I agree only put your spare money in btc or any long or short term investment,  money that you won't require anytime soon to avoid selling under pressure, because we can't determine what will happen in the near future, how the market will react, if you have a spare change not in use, don't hesitate to buy and hold.

Every individual needs to make his own decision. If someone is in a financially stable situation, then it makes sense for him to wait for another 1-2 years so that the prices may rise. But the same can't be said about everyone in the market. There may be less well off individuals who have bills and other expenses to take care of. They can't afford to wait for another 2 years. And what will they do, if the prices decline further even after waiting for so much time? For a volatile asset such as Bitcoin, there is no guarantee that the prices will continue to increase with every passing year.

ah sh8 here we go again  . 

really a fool ? but panicking is only normal  . a person that are knowledgeable can sometimes do panic its because they are unprepared but even prepared panciking cant still be prevented  . 

like me , im not a noob and i think im not an idiot but i do panic for good ( e.g panic buy when theres a dip and panic sell when there is a pump  )  . mcaffee is only making a story and wants to be popular . well played !

Somehow, McAfee has a point. If we are aiming for a better profits we shouldn't be panicking now. This is not new in crypto especially in bitcoin. The bear market is approaching us but we should not be FOMO and sell our btc right away. We've seen this before, whether it may go deep down or may go up again. As long as we hodl, we can still relax and do the market do the pump.
I am only agreeing with the statement that he made because he limited it to people that panic sold their coins, because to be fair, anyone has the right to their decision and if they made decision out of the right mind, then they will always be right.

Everyone has their goal target, some has already made enough profit on that $9500 that would make their life better for the rest of their future, and all they just need is to establish a business that will ensure further growth of money, but I will agree with him if such investor panic to sell, but at the same time, we have some trader that must surely panic sell, which is what I believe stop loss is for partially, just that for their own, they don’t sell into fiat but they still out of panic stopped loss.

There's no point in panicking. In addition, the price has stabilized a bit. We are waiting for what will happen next.

It's not that McAfee is some kind of Bitcoin expert and authority and I'm against to give attention to such statements and advice but this time he has the point.
There is no reason to panic or to sell every time when price goes down. Recovery always folliws and this time happened rather soon..
Still I think it's much better to follow the market and your own experiences and knowledge than listen to persons like McAfee.

My take is whatever McAfee says, you'd be a fool to take trading advice from him, he's a nutjob, has quite a shady reputation, and was shilling ICO's for a fee. He can give you a solid advice about Bitcoin today, and then give you a horrible advice tomorrow, because someone had paid him to. No self-respecting trader would get their advice from someone like McAfee, or any other self-proclaimed expert. People who do are generally newbies who are easily manipulated.

The man is not speculating here but just saying the truth that if by now you are panicking because Bitcoin is under $10000, you are a fool. I may slightly agreed with him with this that if you can cope while Bitcoin get dipped to $3200 level in the same year, while should anybody be panicking now?

We all know who the said speaker is, but that I kept aside and will answer the subject matters. John has been here with speculatives and some we have seen taking place why others not happening, but because he does sometimes we have to hear him out and not just to blacklist him from the cryptoworld.
On a long-term I believe John, but most of the issues that lead to huge sell off are from personal issues down to that of the family. For those who can hold, there will be huge profits after the hit ATH again.

It is just simple logic we should all know that by now, whether from John or from another person, the fact remains that btc will raise even higher after the dip, we have all witnesses it fr0m 3k and raise  to  12k before the correction, it is just a matter of been able to hold for a longer period.

Except that it is a good idea, worked out for him over the years. To not use it would have been to not be McAfee, the dick eating influencer who has such a chequered history it puts a lot of would-be criminals to shame.

Admittedly, calling your followers fools (as the ones panicking are his followers, aren't they?) isn't the best strategy to endear yourself to a fanbase that is getting disenchanted by the day.

I agree! We should not panic with the recent downtrend. As bitcoin believers, we must remain calm and believe that one day we will see a great bull again. If we panic and make a sell order for fear of a downward trend, then we will regret it another day.
Of course, panic is not necessary when the value of bitcoin is showing so clearly, the decline and growth are always a rhythm for bitcoin's adjustment, it needs to constantly create such waves, everyone and especially the big investors will have the opportunity to calculate and set up plans to achieve higher profits, and want to achieve high profits, pushing the value of bitcoin to the highest possible is a certainty. To be honest, I'm not too concerned about the predictions of celebrities, I only believe in what my eyes and mind see and analyze.

The history is proof of itself.

With a lot of declines or dumps in the past, investors of the said cryptocurrency are still getting good profits until now. Despite the dumps happening, the price can quickly increase, that is how volatile it is. If you will be selling early then you would not get profits you deserve.

I have looked through the previous prognoses for this year, and I found out that no one of them worked. It is never possible to understand if Bitcoin goes up or falls, but in case, you are going to hold it for a long time, then panic is nonsense here. Bitcoin will be a gainer finally, but several years might be needed to launch this Moonrise race: simply be more patient waiting for the event.
