Topic: What if there is no crypto bull run for next 10 years ? - page 8. (Read 1144 times)

There won't be any new ath in the price, but it is possible to see good number of people using it. There is a huge user base that have avoided bitcoin, just because the price is volatile. When the market of bitcoin is stable, those who had been waiting for the market need to make use of the present.

More countries would legalise bitcoin in the future, however the market being run over the demand to supply the acceptance mind among common people will increase. For majority of the people they never understand what is bitcoin. First education and then teaching about the market moves were the best to make a person know about the value of Market being volatile.

If that can be confirmed, then yes I'll release the investment. But not completely out of crypto.
The thing is, people can expect the bull run to start about this month, or next month, etc. until it becomes an infinite loop of speculation. You may not even realize that time has passed 2 decades.

People still continue buying it like no one can predict the price of Bitcoin, and right now people are still buying this as an investment and hoping that we will be able to ride it. But to answer your question, it will stay what people are doing right now. As time goes on, lots of countries will adopt it, and people will still be hoping for a bull run. No matter what happens because of the adoption, there will be a bull run in the upcoming years.

The absence of a Bitcoin bull run will kill every excitement in the crypto industry. I've seen how excited the market becomes whenever price spikes. There's often so much noise at gatherings and on social media, characteristic of this moment. Notably, that's the opposite of the calm and hush tone we witness during bear rally.

However, that's not to say that if there's no bull rally the industry will collapse. That's far from the truth. If the market is ranging or in deep decline, traders will be happier for it but investors will be the ultimate losers. Those who trade Futures will take a position to short the hell out of Bitcoin if that happens.

Bitcoin taught me to wait. Thanks to Bitcoin, I learned how to invest, how to research and how to improve myself. If there is no crypto bull run for the next 10 years, I will count what I have learned as profit and move on.

I believe in Bitcoin and I think the bull run is coming. Many institutions and individuals understood the message that Bitcoin has proven itself and will continue. At the same time, we know that the risks are in every investment. If we say that we are improving ourselves, we should know that we need to take precautions for such situations.

Well it will make more sense to those who have learned the DCA approach to Bitcoin accumulations and are constantly staying ahead of the market at all times,  Bitcoin is always best for long-term holdings and that is why you are advised to hold an amount you can afford to hold for a long time,  and this has to be specific between the range of 5 to 10 years.

So if there is no Bitcoin bull run for the next 10 years,  those set of Bitcoin holders will still be in a better position since they have to learn all the way up and down at each point.

Great question.

To all that think this can not happen it can.

Study gold from 1990 to 2003

It stayed in a range of 200 to 400 usd.

So Btc could stay in a 20k to 40k range for a real long time if the rulers of the world make it so.

For me I mine for profit if all profit fully dies out I am done on large scale. Ie 200k-watts an hour is my large scale.

I would cut back to 3-5 kwatts an hour.

OP what you should be aware of is that people invest in bitcoin ordinarily during the bear market and they seem to gain their profits little by little through DCA before the bull run even starts. But If happens that there is no bull run in the next 10 years, I will still have bitcoin as my store of value without stressing out about it. What I will be doing is applying a DCA method if the need should be.

I think that we have already managed to overcome the problem of price volatility with BTC long ago when it comes to payments with something called payment processors - and they are the simplest way for the buyer to pay the amount of goods or services at the given price at a given moment, and for the seller to receive the requested amount in fiat.

It is not very realistic to expect that the price of BTC in relation to fiat will stabilize to the extent that payments would go directly according to the model BTC address - > BTC address, as well as that price stabilization would have such a positive impact on merchants, because they even offer a lot that can be bought/paid with BTC, but there is too little interest from customers.

The problem is that the vast majority of those involved in BTC do it only for profit, whether it's an average Joe or companies worth billions or even trillions of dollars.

10 years will really be a long bear but since you have already been holding since this bottom, it wouldn't be worth it to sell anymore unless you really need the money for a purpose. You just have to wait when that time would come or wait til bullrun.

Unfortunately, more people are into crypto for the purpose of making a profit. You can't blame them after all people promote crypto as a hedge against the inflation that is affecting everyone.

There could be another means if no bull for 10 years, just as few people already said they may invest in stock., But however, cryptocurrency or Bitcoin at large is far above profits making, when you focused on the real purpose why bitcoin is created you wouldn't get weak or panicked over the price being stagnant of not making progress. And I think this may create lots of opportunities for people stack enough volume of it to wait till after next 10 years as you said but in other hand, I can say that the buying and selling cryptocurrency may not be profitable since most people actively involved themselves with scalping and trading this might not be profitable. The rise and fall of bitcoin is what leads to effective trading and also people making profits from it.

Bull run will definitely happen as bitcoins are limited in number. People will start buying the coins once they see the price is down. This will lead to the increase in demand to accumulate bitcoins. And window as the demand increases the price also goes up in order to meet the demand. Hence, after every bear market will see a bull run. So don’t get unnecessary thinkings in your head and keep on accumulating bitcoins when the price is down.

Ten years is quite a lengthy period; I believe many investors might start to panic if the market remains in a bearish state. If that were to occur, I would consider moving my money elsewhere. True investors tend to keep their funds active, even when the cryptocurrency market is highly profitable during bullish periods.

However, I don't believe such a scenario will transpire. In fact, I think waiting for five years is already a significant duration, as whales are likely to strategize ways to stimulate the market, given its current susceptibility to manipulation.

i guess a lot of newcomers here are hoping such bull run, which for them is a sharp increase. but the possibility of going up is always there. it is only a matter of time. it may not be a sudden jump but high chance of increasing its value as the adoption is increasing also. we won't be staying in this range for years. because if it is, then, it means, little to none are going into this market.which is not the case.

Yes @Solosanz I agree on what you said to the OP, Bitcoin is not all about profits, if the op thinks that Bitcoin is all about profit that means all these while that the price of Bitcoin was dripping in a hurry the op was busy selling of his coins, to me I don't see Bitcoin as an investment but I take is as an online banking were I can save my moneys, is risky to save money in a some Fiat banks because long long time ago while I was still tender my parents told me a story about how a bank was closed down and the bank oners run away with her money up till date so since then I don't like keeping all my money in one particular place I like separating them like keeping some at a fiat bank and putting some in crypto (Bitcoin) so if anything happens to the fiat I will not be too worried about it because I have some I deposited on Bitcoin, is good to think about the profits we want from a particular investment but if we are always thinking about the profits it can put our minds in danger.

Op even if there is no bull run for 50 yearys people will still use Bitcoin, besides Bitcoin has gone way too far with good reputations and in some placeses Bitcoin is been used as a payment method and I don't think those who use Bitcoin as a payment method in their businesses are expecting the bull run anytime soon.

If that was to happen and we won't see a new ATH in the next decade, Bitcoin's ability as a store of value would be questionable.
But it kind of depends on what do you mean. We might never see another bull run (meaning a sharp increase in price) but we might see e.g. Bitcoin moving up slowly and gradually, not making anyone a millionaire overnight, but beating up inflation rates (i.e. becoming something similar to gold). Such scenario would probably be better for Bitcoin than the bull-run cycles, although it would attract a different type of investors.

If like you said it happens that no bull run for the next ten years, realistically it will affect investment in bitcoin and cryptocurrency at large because most hodlers are focused on the asset and financial reward from hodling, so those are the set of people that will exit. But for those who understand the real purpose of the transactional value of bitcoin and the third party privacy exclusion will continue doing bitcoin business and I think at such time the real value of bitcoin will be ascertain because manipulators and whales will also go to sleep.

Bitcoin has many advantages. I don't invest in Bitcoin just because there will be a bull run. Bitcoin protects us from the dangers that may occur in banks. There are many reasons like this. If I owned Bitcoin just to make a profit, I would wait for the bull run and invest only then, but I want to take advantage of all the positive things Bitcoin has to offer us.

Today, everyone's priority is to make a profit. Bitcoin always gives us profit in certain periods. The rest of the time we should enjoy the full benefits of Bitcoin.

No I will not... for now.
I mean it all depends on different circumstances. I might be saying that I might not giving it up right now, but when emergency comes, and I need to sell all of my assets to cover it up, I might do it if needed. I mean it's very subjective, and situational because we don't know what might happen in the future.

Like I said, I will not give up my investments just because there are no bull run for the next 10 years, but if worst thing happens, I might do so. In the end, if that scenario happens, I will still buy Bitcoin whatever the price is. Reality is, what OP is saying will not happen because market moves in cycles, and the crypto market is experiencing a bull run once or twice in the span of 10 years.

if in the next 10 years there is no increase in crypto, of course it's not a big problem for me, because I invest in crypto only as a side, and I'm ready if in the future crypto doesn't increase, in my for people whose main income from crypto will certainly be panicked and anxious because crypto is not going up. that's why many say crypto investment must be made a side business and must use idle money, because we will not know the fate of crypto in the future.
