Topic: Will we ever get another 7th Jan 2018 Alt Season? - page 3. (Read 1251 times)

Are you aware of the current market trend right now, or do you just typing random bullshit here?

What in the world people don't want to min-max their earnings through different things. There is no reason to limit yourself because BTC is going high it doesn't mean that is enough for us. Let's say Dogecoin right now, Dogecoin is really hype right now due to reasons and you would like to miss this opportunity? Sure dude.

Altcoins follow the Bitcoin's bullish trend at the moment (at least some of them). But I agree with you, the trend may not last long. Bitcoin is probably still the safest to invest in the long run.

Coins just don't go up like that. There needs to be a solid reason. Bitcoin prices have gone up, as a result of the hype surrounding integration into platforms such as PayPal and Square. Some of the altcoins have also gone up, mainly because they are also traded against BTC. Their exchange rate versus BTC has gone down, but that against fiat has gone up. But this trend is not going to last much longer and the hints are already there. Bitcoin dominance now stands at 72%. It was 57% before the start of the bull run.

We can never tell whether this 2021 will be the same on what happen on that said year where alt season started but I have confidently convinced that it has a very high possibility that alt season is on its way because seeing the market bullish not only for bitcoin but also to several top rank altcoins that made me strongly feel that it will make a new history for crypto world and industry.

oh yes of course, don't worry, there are already signs, Doge is up 150%, Ethereum is above $ 700, and Litecoin is in a bullish trend,
of course these are signs to watch out for when the altcoin season will start, it's just that bitcoin dominance is still high and predicted to be reaches 90%,
so just accumulate the altcoins that you choose and hold, 2018 will repeat itself this year.

Some altcoins are already showing good growth. Dot has doubled recently, Litecoin is now very expensive and ether has almost doubled in the last month. The altcoin season has already begun.

Well I am replying in a 'Alt' forum so btc discussions not allowed here correct?

You are waiting for alt season so much but is btc bull run not enough?

So we just have to wait and see whether we get another Alt season taking off this year. If not that will be the end final nail in the coffin for Alts I guess apart from Bitcoin in the top 10.

We know future will be blockchain technology so surely bitcoin cant steal all of that blockchain market right?

You will always get Pepsi to Coca Cola and the same can be said of Burger King to Mcdonalds.

Nike to Adidas. Apple to Microsoft so surely bitcoin cant have 100% market dominance. So out of 8000 altcoins only a few can survive right?

To start the Alt season, it is necessary for investors to start taking profit on bitcoin and getting out of it.  The dominance of bitcoin should also drop to the area of ​​50%, but this is still very far away.

We have been seeing altcoin runs in different sectors, most recently DeFi, you just need to know where to look... DYOR. My investment strategy has been to buy up microcaps like 0xMR and UNCX early before they moon. If you invest in something that already increased in value there will be a lot of bagholders looking to dump on you.

If bitcoin is on route to $100k then how can it chill? This mean altcoins will remain in the shallows until that happens but once bitcoin reaches 100k its gonna dump hard back down to 20k that is a 80% pullback and once that happens the already shallow alts that haven't recovered will correlate with this -80% too sending alts into death near 0 right?

Except Litecoin of course. Its the only Alt that shares the same strengths with bitcoin from the looks of it!

Even Ether doesnt look like it can catch up with btc pace.

Ripple got a scandal to deal with in courts.

So hence I said litecoin ltc.

Okay coming back here it looks like only the fundamentally sound altcoins will have their bull market alt season. I'm talking altcoins that are genuine backed by good fundamentals that have a real world usage now, not scams and yeah it looks like investors nowadays wont technically dump their money into random alts like they did in 2017/18 because lots of ico scams back then.

So it seems the ico scam stain wont clean off for a very long time, so bad that it puts investors off alts still to this day and we wont have another alt season meaning only a handful of fundamental alts will have their individual bull runs.

Of course we will continue just having yearly alt trends. This 2020 year was the de-fi trend.

Obviously we will get the altcoin season again soon hopefully in 2021 but there are big chances that bad quality projects will nit pump much so try to get more coins from top 50 or top 100 coins only for better bulls exposure.

To see alt season like the season in January 2018, bitcoin need to chill off and remains its value somewhat steady.At the point when individuals see no danger of air pocket, they will spend out their money to purchase altcoins and when whales finish their games with bitcoin, they will change to elective digital currency.In 2018, the alt-season happened one month after the unequaled high of bitcoin.

Why am I hearing exchanges are delisting ripple xrp when the jury verdict on that sec case has not been reached yet 

I understand if ripple found to be liable guilty then exchanges can take action buy why take action in advance? Is it because exchanges believe no one will win against the sec no matter how good your lawyers are?

maybe you can, because there is still a lot of time especially when the end of December hasn't ended. maybe after BTC's correction some altcoins start showing signs again. now is a great time to buy some bags of altcoin at low prices and maybe wait until early 2021.

You need to understand the reasons behind the market trends if you want to have some idea about the present and near future. Unfortunately, I see a lot of users throwing this idea out of the window and just keep operating on pure hopium.

2017 market was driven by "blockchain technology" hype. Investors were throwing their money at every altcoin out there, traditional companies were announcing that they will adopt blockchain and so on. Then, after Bitcoin has crashed, there was much less interest in blockchain.

Fastforward to 2020, Bitcoin is booming because institutional investors decided that it's worth parking some of their money in it, since US dollar isn't doing to well. Is there any reason for alts to grow here? Would anyone view highly experimental, unrpoven, untested, work-in-progress networks as a good place to store their value? Especially since their volatility is much higher than Bitcoin's? The answer is clearly no.

Altcoin season was a one-time thing, investors won't be so hyped about blockchain now, because it's no longer a brand new thing, and they see that it failed to yield any results since 2017.

The story with the price of bitcoin and altcoins will no longer be repeated. In 2017 - 2018, the situation was completely different than it is now. The current situation is much better for the price growth of the cryptocurrency market. Price correction will periodically occur, however, one should hardly expect such a strong price drop in January. In 2021, we expect further market growth in general in the first half of the year, however, large holders of cryptocurrency can significantly affect this situation. Therefore, in many ways, the further price movement of the cryptocurrency is poorly predictable.

Because they want to control everything.

I don't think xrp is going to pull down all the altcoins. This may be a temporary effect, but I think that many will recognize the difference between ripple and decentralized altcoins.

Damn, Ripple xrp might spoil the bull alt season for alts. It even dragged down Ether too but Bitcoin still looks strong unaffected.

How long this lawsuit by SEC regulators against ripple will take and the altcoin market must wait for the jury verdict on this case and from there whether we see ripple is found guilty or not guilty then the alt market will follow bearish or bullish on that verdict right?

Is Stellar xlm effected by ripple too?

Is ripple is found guilty then that will tarnish the whole altcoin market putting it in bearish cycle for a long time years I guess from this not proven yet ripple scandal right?

If ripple is found not guilty then that's super bullish for ripple and for altcoins meaning ripple could be a cheap buy now?

Finally SEC regulators can only go against centralised coins like ripple but not decentralised ones? I thought governments love centralisation so why they go after centralised coins
