Just like with anything in life you have to live and learn. 2018 was a year for most who entered the cryptoworld to learn from. And going forward everyone has learned their lesson and not go all in this time around or they will get unknown results.
2019 is looking good so far and we all are optimistic when the price is on the rise the way it is now.
Topic: One thing I am Glad for in 2018 - page 2. (Read 871 times)
Undoubtedly, 2018 was a year of great lessons, but in my opinion the greatest of all is that the concept of "holding" is not applicable to all cryptocurrencies in general, and the best thing is to be sufficiently qualified to be willing to sell any altcoin at a price convenient to us, as the market showed us throughout 2018 that most of the cryptos will tend to devalue strongly as the days go by.
And I also learned that bitcoin, despite its supposed weaknesses, remains the strong currency in this ecosystem, and that if we seek to invest in a safe way in this market, bitcoin will always be the best option, the safe bet.

I do not share the same sentiments, last year was not the worst year for crypto, it was just different.
There are still some people who think everything is going to always positive and without controversial sagas.

At least when compared to 2017, last year was not that great. Back in 2017, many of the countries legalized Bitcoin and the overall mood was positive. But the crash of the ICO market changed everything. Many of the governments became more restrictive and hostile regarding to Bitcoin in 2018 and ICOs were banned in a number of countries.
Last year (2018) was the worst year for people who bought Bitcoin at the price of $20k per one bitcoin but was also a very great year for people who invested in altcoins in the first part of the year. The market value of altcoins were very good in 2018 making some investors who traded and invested in them gain about 300% of their initial investment capital. People who complained were those who join the bitcoin ecosystem when it's market value was $20k and $17k.
..for others,,2018 is the worst year of crypto specially Bitcoin because all of crypto coins have marked red for the continous downfall of their price..even me, I thought that it is the end of the sudden downfall of Bitocin,,but I still hold and do believe in the power of what Bitcoin can do to me so I keep it and put trust on it,,and year 2019 is the start of bitcoin price lift,,and I am happy that I don't regret my decision because I see the market value to have green tag,which means that there is still hope for the Bitcoin to reach its peak again..
i have never recorded much success in the blockchain space as i did in the first quarter of 2018. all of the jobs i did for loads of projects happened to make their payments during the first quarter of 2018 and also the prices were quickly appreciating and sold off in good profit before the bearish market took its toll.
I guess its not only you who took the toll on the bearish market. Traders like me hasnt still recovered since 2018 after the crash. Lets just hope that the cryptocurrency forecast of those popular crypto personalities is accurate and 2019 is realy a year of tge bull. The future of Bitcoin is not determined by what happened to the previous year, because last year was not the worst year in the crypto world. Let's look at the future where we have confidence if the value of crypto will return to an increase in value.
But it shaped bitcoin. Without the dip in price, it will be harder for people to adopt Bitcoin. The downtrend of Bitcoin enable windows, for now, investors to come in. From there, these investors somehow will have an effect on the future. Aside from that, technically, the experience and past things that happen to Bitcoin, hardship, and shortcomings, will enable it to evolve into something better. So, we cannot neglect the history or previous year of Bitcoin. It is where the inputs are coming from for future Bitcoin.
2018 is a situation that can be tossed into 2 segments depending on which section was more beneficial to different individuals
For some set of investors; 2018 was the best year because it reinforces the dominance of bitcoin as the leading light of other coins and it also stretched the survival rate of bitcoin
For some investors on the other hand, 2018 was a year of total bearish point for them as their portfolio crashed;
but why does no one admits they learnt a lot from the bearish period of 2018

As for me, the best thing that ever happened despite the bearish market this year is that a lot of opportunities has oppened for those who want to buy while the prices are low. However, chances are bigger for those who are hoping for the bull market to run.
We are talking about 2018 and not this year,sometimes better read the story first not just the title,but you are right that bear market provides opportunity to invest and hold

Bitcoin has more power and all crypto coins still have a very close bond with bitcoin, it still underlies the movement of all prices, its natural movements bring it to a higher level of interest from time to time even though many claims that there is a lot of declines, but does not rule out the possibility that its role is still very important and still has a high popularity.
With the increasing number of bitcoin users and other crypto coins, even though they often experience a decline, it still has a high chance to be increasingly recognized on its role even till nowadays, after the decline is sure to increase, it is indeed natural law that's influenced by various things especially demand & supply.

You don't need to compare year to year about bitcoin or cryptocurrency, because the fluctuating nature can occur at any time and all you have to do is take lessons from what's happening and be more positive to assess what's happening.
You have to know what you have to do and try to take advantage of that moment well and wisely what you have to do when last year was a bad thing on the cryptocurrency market, and this year there has been a pretty good improvement and you will enjoy it and everything depends on you innovate and invest in what you do, and investing in the long term for bitcoin in my opinion is very effective and remains optimistic.

Exactly, you can't evaluate and make conclusions based only on one year period. Bitcoin is very complex and it's changing through time, also don't forget about volatility and many external factors that influence the price and the market. Bitcoin should be estimated on long term period taking into account all good and bad sides.
I do not share the same sentiments, last year was not the worst year for crypto, it was just different.

Definitely your right mate people 2018 is the very worse year for crypto currency but if they understand well at that year they give opportunity people to buy bitcoin or any coins for long term investing.
The year 2018 was a year in which many opportunities were offered in the crypto money market and many other enlightenments emerged. Even though the rate of earnings for Bitcoin and other crypto currencies is not very high, we have seen very good investment figures due to the low initial investment costs, but many investors were reluctant to invest in the fluctuating market. The investors who managed to enter the market at the right price and who took risks were fiished this year with notable profits.
2018 has been one of the worst years if not the worst in the crypto industry. We had so many ups and downs but we are still around and looking forward to making it happen once again as it has always been. But amidst fhe turbulence that occurred there's still one thing I'm happy for, and that's some "psychopaths" failed their mission.
We all thought we had reach a bottom around 6K until some few people decided to ruin everything for all of us. Gladly, their mission failed (well, for now) and I'm really happy for that. I hope the same happens to anyone who tries to ruin Bitcoin's price furthermore.
Now Bitmain has layed off workers, boycotted plans to launch a subsidiary at a new country and having leadership troubles and oh, people aren't purchasing their mining rigs as before. Their best solution was to help find a way to pump Bitcoin but they ruined it.
If you have a product, start something and don't try to kill Bitcoin because ultimately you'll end up with undervalued coins.

You're right bitcoin is the king of all crypto that's why other coins need it. And as the day had pass bitcoin continue to become stronger digital currency in crypto word. It will increase more it's value as the mass adoption keep on increasing. We all thought we had reach a bottom around 6K until some few people decided to ruin everything for all of us. Gladly, their mission failed (well, for now) and I'm really happy for that. I hope the same happens to anyone who tries to ruin Bitcoin's price furthermore.

It is not always possible to have an increasing price. Perhaps the advance of last fall has protected us from future losses. So we can see this as an advantage to move more carefully in the future.
One thing that I am also glad with what happened to 2018 bear market was that I keep my faith that the coin I hold on weren't so much devastated. I guess I can say I survived the storm of my life and hold on to more of the coins I think will also survive in the next bear market and sure I know what I would do when that happen.
One good thing that happened caused by 2018 huge downfall was the effect on cryptocurrency enthusiasts to be more aware of the scams and frauds. It taught us to be more diligent enough to reduce the number of scammers and frauds in the cryptocurrency world. Imagine how opportunists took advantage of the hype brought by 2017 bull run. At least for now, the people are very careful with their investments.
There were many users earn that time especially the huge investors. As this system.has not been regulated by any of the government, so it is phrone to abuse though they claim that bitcoin is run by the investors and it has block chain tech. But, i just wander why other block chain tech base coin could make an insertion of the coin supply? Could it be mean that bitcoin market price could be manipulated?
