I was thinking yesterday. Monero started year 2017 as one of the most talked about coins, but latter lost the momentum. It looked like hype around other coins went up and around Monero stayed the same. I never understand of a reason for that. Thought of marketing or that those that joined crypto will find Monero sooner or latter. But what happened in 2017 and now will continue in 2018 are increased countries regulations. Countries had and will try to regulate ICOs and tokens and coins and all to collect as much taxes as they can. By doing that they mention coins and by that market them. And they mention all coins and tokens beside Monero. Because Monero with non transparent ledger currently dont fit in the scheme. And they have no ideas what to do with it so they ignore it. By ignoring they give no free marketing to Monero but give time to develop to get stronger.

Ignore, laugh, fight, you win.

It seems we are only at start. And we will have plenty of small disappointments on the way.

It's actually the whole market sentiment. All crypto had a good run-up last year, so I believe prices needs to stabilize first. I'm just hope that it will not take that long (like a multi-year bear market).
