I found with halving bitcoin at next year and give us hope for bitcoin back to higher price, I can't trust because today bitcoin still down and do not have way when bitcoin back up. We need regulation for bitcoin first to make we believe bitcoin at the future have good price and investor can get profit with bitcoin and altcoin investment, worth or not with holding bitcoin today is depend with how situation at the future with bitcoin.
I think there will be regulation as far as bitcoin or any crypto currency is concerned due to it's decentralized nature and even if ther has to be a regulation then who will implement those regulations ? I don't think it will ever happen but yes people might become more smart and down the line they might be able to differentiate between the market generated pump and whales generated pump.
