I believe you are only one person who are waiting that bitcoin come back to crash. Almost, everyone like and waiting when bitcoin cross $2000 and now people's dream come true. Can i ask Why you think that bitcoin come back?
If i wish bitcoin price come back only one reason that i want to buy a lot of bitcoins in a low price. Otherwise, definitely i will not like that bitcoin price come back.
Topic: Unlike alts Bitcoin will not crash (Read 2191 times)
Not all alts are for pump and dump shit coins. There are few legit altcoins that in the future may compete with bitcoin. You can buy and hold on some of good altcoins out there. But if a person becomes a bagholder of shit coins, it is his fault that he did not do research or even give an effort to know the shit coin he is buying.
As some body already mentioned, indeed we haven't seen the real Bitcoin price yet, Japan was just the start now I'm more interested to see what happens when 50 countries do as Japan did, maybe we see $150,000/BTC?
About alts I must say this:
Imagine yourself with 10 others mostly close friends coworkers, team members launching a "cryptocurrency" and then start mining it for a few years with having 90% of the total hash power.
Then you will go to one or a few of exchanges and start buying and selling from each other, of course a few lucky miners in between see the price increase and dump in the middle and earn their profits no doubting that, while you guys are pumping some greedy traders see the opportunity and start buying pumping the price up high just to sell later and they will sell to others(unsuspected traders)then after a while when a support wall has been built you will start the dumping and other newbies thinking wow some cheap coins and put their money and gladly pick your dump.
Then coinmarketcap shows billions of dollars as your shitcoin marketcap, now you see how these alts can work and deceive people?
And yes as the people move in and invest they will replace you but you just made millions doing nothing but mining for a few years, Bitcoin however is shouting for years to the world and saying come and mine me.
Why don't you go and mine alts instead of investing? that's right most of the pumped alts are not mine-able go figure.

It looks like none of the major alt coins will have a crash ,we could see minor corrections ,other than that nothing bad is going to happen,look at the rally we had in Zcash and Dash,these kind of rally is not because of a major pump and dump scheme,it is because there are major investments in these coins .
After they had their successful pump in a few altcoins one by one their time of dumping is coming and going and idiots will once again buy them in hopes of getting rich.
Now it is Bytecoin turn, go and buy as much as you want and let them dump billions on some poor bastard just like all the ponzi schemes, scammers found a new way which is what we are witnessing in past 2 month in crypto.
Even I was able to mine Bytecoin on a crappy laptop, now imagine some body with 50 GPU-CPU in a basement was able to mine God knows how many.
People wont even look at altcoins infrastructure they just deposit BTC on an exchange and start buying knowing they are participating in a ponzi or just don't know what that is and will enter regardless.
I'm waiting for Bitcoin to crash back to sub 1k but facts are undeniable, more miners are joining the race and I'm speculating another surprise as a price increase who knows maybe to $2400?
If you think the price can get as high as 2400 before going down then take the opportunity and buy now earn good money in just a few weeks or day and then sell and wait for the price reduction and make even more money.Now it is Bytecoin turn, go and buy as much as you want and let them dump billions on some poor bastard just like all the ponzi schemes, scammers found a new way which is what we are witnessing in past 2 month in crypto.

This is something to go on debate real debate. What is that you this is crash, price down or to coin go to 1 satoshi. In both cases we saw that some rise from ash and now are pretty good ones. Ans yes bitcoin cannot crash like any alt one. Some alt controlled by individual or several ones and they can do anything anytime, so when alt crashes you lose lot.

Well I didn't bought any of the single altcoin of the xbyte , but surely Thier are many altcoin which have no wallet ( I mean their wallet get offline and coin get stopped to mine ) but still they are at the exchange , here the big example is that many altcoins are in this market of cryptocurrency that are having this quality .Now it is Bytecoin turn, go and buy as much as you want and let them dump billions on some poor bastard just like all the ponzi schemes, scammers found a new way which is what we are witnessing in past 2 month in crypto.

Two exchange , one is yobit.net and second is cryptopia , both of them are having lots of dead coins , and most of the dead coins have no wallet to withdraw ( and most of them remain offline ) .
So here in my opinion , before to by any altcoin , we should check at the all news and atleast status of the altcoin is what ? .
Note: Well here I am not trolling any exchange , I am talking about the dead coins that are still in few exchange .
you haven't seen the real bitcoin price rise yet. this is nothing compared to what will come in the future, this is mostly because of the "news about Japan" and the fact that they have finally legalized bitcoin as a legal payment method.
That is merely speculation on your part because we may not see "the real Bitcoin price rise" or this is already the real price rise.

just wait until a couple of these "bitcoin is accepted here" signs go up in Japan by the merchants (and remember that Japan has 24 million tourists each year and is ranked 4th among countries like that). that is when the real adoption starts kicking in and the price goes to the real moon.
I disagree. The growth of Bitcoin will coincide with the growth of the dark markets where Bitcoin its use case makes the most sense.
Bitcoin will crash when all of the other coins markets will be crashing down. Ofcourse in the bitcoin market that will be just a correction compared to the alts massacre.
It always happens like this. Major alts when crash down takes bitcoin with itself. It makes absolutely no sense other than panic. As people are changing their shitcoins to bitcoin and when they see that bitcoin is tanking as well, they dump the bitcoins to fiat as well. It makes no sense, other than human psychology and possibly manipulation as well.

I agree with you that Bitcoin has lots of upside potential.
But what scares me is that the recent altcoin speculators will get burned so bad, when that bubble pops, that even Bitcoin will not be an option for them anymore. Japan could screw it up again.
At least this is a scenario we have to take into consideration imo. So although Bitcoin isn't in a bubble yet or mostly at the beginning of getting into one, the crash of the altcoins, which will happen, may take Bitcoin down as well to a certain level.
This feels like dotcom to me what's going on right now with the alts. We will see a lot of blood. People who will lose a fortune cause of greed will cry for regulation and so on.
It always surprises me how people have ridiculous thoughts and desires. Some here want for Bitcoin price to crash under 1000$ so they can buy it but and immediately after that they want the price to rise over 2500$ so that they could become rich over night. Bitcoin market is not functioning like this and not listening to someone's desires. Get serious.
Yes,if any one wants bitcoin price to crash under $1000,i think it would only remain as a dream and its far away from reality at this time.Bitcoin is going in bullish trend and its already predicted that it would move through out this year in the same trend.Just don't miss the train.

Most of the alt coins are created for a reason of gaining monetary benefits in a small space of time and to accomplish that DEv and the traders play a pump dump games and earn good making the ordinary person loss.
Bitcoin is not such a coin and its a real future. If you are excepting it to fall back after reaching 2400$, you are totally wrong. Once reach 2400$, it will move more fastly towards 3000$.
Well provably your thoughts will come true but we can't elimanate those people who would provably spread some hypes so that they can make bitcoins price crush for a while and it is proven that this thing really happen unto it. But if all of us will cooperate with this surely the 3000$ speculation will come in reality and that would be the good thing for us to see.
Lol can't understand for the life of me why BTC hodlers are so impassioned by the increase in alts. If you're a hodler buy and fucking hodl. I'm a hodler AND I flip alts for extra profit. Couldn't care less. BTC is top dog and will be for some time, but that's not gonna stop me from profiting on alts.

The alts don't seem to be crashing anytime soon. Look at their valuations - they just keep rising.
Bitcoin dominance has crashed below 50% and it looks like it will stay there for some time.

That is true. What we must find out is how long these valuations and high market capitalizations on altcoins can be maintained. This is a bubble and a time will come that everything must contract. People will lose Bitcoin value by trading altcoins. That always happens after a bull market.
If that is what you think then the regulators should arrest all the billionaires who are involved in trading the stock markets and forex markets around the world. No market is free of fraud and manipulation.
I believe it is prudent to diversify your crypto investments - and trim some holdings for fiat as the prices go up. This way, you have dry powder for the inevitable dips. But, importantly, don't forget to buy the dips and crashes!
Pretty much this. Bitcoin elitists seem to think that their technology is the be all and end all. They speak of investing in the blockchain technology, yet they shun others for investing in further improvements of the technology that are only presenting themselves in altcoins right now.
Bitcoin elitists will make money, but their closed-mindedness, and arrogance, has cost them many more gains. Money is pumping and dumping into and out of altcoins relative to Bitcoin, much like Bitcoin did to fiat in its early days (and to a less extent, now). Wave #2 of early adopters, at least from our own point of view, will not be of Bitcoin, but of some other successful cryptocurrencies. With that said, altcoins are in a bubble, but these bubbles will only continue to grow in the long term, in exactly the same way Bitcoin has.
Not enough people are taking Japan into account. The laws regarding crypto only recently passed there and there are some very legitimate options coming in terms of exchanges.
I'm not completely sure which coins are or are not fully approved, but it seems that they've gone a bit batty for Ripple at least. Japan could ruin any plans for crashes for quite a while.

There is not much of demand on altcoin, these demands are just fake trades luring unsuspecting investor to think that the altcoin is stable and will rise in price and buy this altcoin. So I agree that bitcoin will not crash hard, there maybe some correction but it is normal when bitcoin is rising too fast.
