They are not doomed bitcoin will surely fall down, but we must know that bitcoin is unstable so you don't have to worry about that. Bitcoin is also good supported.

I think if it falls down hard it will come back up again, but it will take sometime though.

I believe Bitcoin will become stable as times go, but to say it will fall, I don't think so those buying into Bitcoin now are big boys are into this for a long haul and to say Bitcoin is unstable what are you going to say of ALtcoins

Once bitcoin is stabilizing only then you will see it from you seat that most of alts are skyrocketing Grin
But yeah, if btc prices going up alts ill be dumped, but as we know btc cant always go up, there will be a time for correction

Once bitcoin is stabilizing SOME of alts will fly, not most of them. There are to many alt. The main is try to find best of them. IMHO only 10% maximum will survive
To me 10% sounds very generous in the long run. I can't even see that many surviving.

soon we are see that altcoin price will be increase back and i am sure that the price will reach the highest price that we can know. i think we need to be waiting for a while before the bitcoin price is down or gets stable first then we can have altcoin party by increasing of the price. i still have my altcoins now and even if i am selling now i can make profit, i think its the best thing if i can sell in the another high price.

I really don't think, that long therm altcoin investors are going to be doomed,lol. The entire world is still pretty much unaware of the cryptocurrency thing. With the recent quick rising of bitcoin, more and more people are going to pay attention to it,tho..and since bitcoin is no longer cheap for anyone to purchase in high quantity, most folks will start to pay more attention to altcoins.  So its a good time to but altcoins now, while everyone is still trying to get a piece of bitcoin,lol. I've invested in a couple of them so far, like Nem, stratis, ethereum, ripple and I'll add Tio to my list, high potential.

I doubt longterm folks are doomed.
BTC must finish its dirty forky job first and stabilize to calm down weak hands.

Bitcoin value is going high every minute, and its gonna keep going up too. So all the people who invested their bitcoin in alts for long term are doomed now.
I don't think they will be able to recover their investments.
Are you one of those people too? What are your thoughts?
A few weeks or months have nothing to do with long term. And we have been seeing these kinds of movements and phases for as long as cryptos have existed, so there's nothing new here and definitely no "doom".

I don't know behavior like this is what happened in the dot com bust:
https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2017-10-27/what-s-in-a-name-u-k-stock-surges-394-on-blockchain-rebrand
The dot com bubble also had a lot of greedy people who had no idea what they were buying too. So yes, a lot of people will get screwed in crypto, because they're not careful. Doesn't mean that serious long-term investors are going to have any problems here. People got rich during the dot com bubble and people will get rich during the ICO insanity. It's up to the individual if they want to follow the herd or properly study projects.

In my opinion Bitcoin will return to nowadays level within the time. The question is would it be higher or lower than the price at the beginning of this growth. To sell Bitcoins on the peak is reasonable thing.

The matter is when it start to fall down.

If you play the market and day trade between altcoins and bitcoins, then you could make a lot of money.  Bitcoin is rising fast but that is mainly because of the fork that is happening.  I suspect it will go down a bit and more money would be invested into altcoins.  Now is a great time to buy altcoins as I would forcast the ones that have potential altcoins would gain the most as soon as the bitcoin fork is over.

We may have one more move down for the alts, if BTC makes a quick lurch towards $10k. After that, I expect an exhale into alts later this month. First the major alts, then later the lesser alts.

That is presuming the entire crypto market does not collapse due to some black swan event.

Definitely do not want to trapped holding bags of illiquid, lesser alts when the next crypto winter comes (when ever that may or may not be).
I think that it's going to be a different scenario in the long run. Many altcoins fail because the developers didn't plan things out thoroughly.

Yeah I'm one of the those people. We experienced lots of things. And this is not an end.

Yeah, given this time, it is a nice time to buy altcoins because of the low price. You really just need patience in order to earn the best profit. I also believe that this is not the end. There is so much future in these alts especially those decentralized alts like monero and zcash.

It sure looks like that, with bitcoin going up to 10K. Altcoins seem a little bit lost, but that will not last forever. Ethereum will surely get back and so will some other altcoins. But that will take some time, so just hold and aim for the long term.

Yeah i am one of those as well. But it is too late to exchange the altcoins to bitcoin. So i am going to hold them and wait for a bullish altcoin thread. If i sell them now i am sure i will loose more money.

I also have a large proportion in alts. I suppose my perspective is based on when I came into crypto in April this year. I bought a lot of ETH and saw it massively outperform bitcoin. In hindsight I should have switched it to BTC as soon as ETH started to peak, but decisions are easy in hindsight. I underestimated bitcoin because all that I'd seen was an ETH boom. Now that I have a few months' more experience following the markets I am not worried about short-term fluctuations.
The BTC rise will tail off at some point, possibly with the segwit2x fork when people will have got their new coin. Good alts will rise again. The thing to do is regularly adjust your holdings so that you have a percentage split that you are happy with. Always learn and gather experience, this is the best way to ensure you make sensible decisions rather than basing choices on panic and FOMO. My decisions now are still a long way from flawless, but they are better than they used to be.

Not totally doomed. There will be a cycle of who go up and go down. For today it is bitcoin that go up and altcoin that go down. Money is going to bitcoin today and after some time money will be back to altcoins.

Exactly, people sell altcoins for bitcoin and wait for next hard fork segwit2x, therefore they can make more money. But holding alts makes me painful because we lose much money, alts drops too fast.
