We are in a bear market, (granted, it's easing up a bit), but it's a huge dip, since we had the $20,000 ATH hit sometime in December 2017. So here are the Silver linings in the dark clouds..
More FUD resistance. Well consider this just like a vaccination. We all have that Fever that follows vaccines. But the good thing is it shoots up our resistance, our nerve. To handle bad news
Okay, at least with passing time, we are seeing less of useless forks. Why? I truly believe by next bull run, most useless forks will fail to gain use and market shares and would eventually drop off, and original ideas will dominate
No more shitcoin. Coins like bitcoin gold, diamond, platinum, sapphire, ruby etc etc. If this market continues for a 1 more month, we would be rid of shitcoins.
No more moon-heads. This particular issue can really rankle me up. You won't read 2 posts without a 'when moon' or 'when lambo' post popping up somehow. Especially in Telegram threads
Mass adoption. Technology will advance. I With tech advance we will see adoption rates going up. Technology like Ripple, Nano would get some look-ins
The real HODLers would be shown. And this would show peeps that really believe in projects. Not just 'get-rich-quick' guys
Everybody is getting their suit on. The world of Cryptocurrency may be a a green pasture to those who really understand it and getting a hang of it. But it can be a lion's den to those who failed to educate themselves. They will be eaten alive by wrong decisions they will make.
I can see that this year, many investors will now be more careful which project to invest on. Unique projects will truly rise above the rest. Many people will benefit form the bear market and see this event as a good opportunity to invest more.
I really hope that useless coins will go down the drain, they are just buffing up the system and cluding those who really want to invest.
