The ongoing battle about what it is..... the bulls say that we are seeing a prolonged bear trap and the bears say that we are seeing a bull trap... hehehehe
The mere fact that you refer to them as cryptocoins tells me that you're ready to start giving sound market analysis.

I say "cryptocoins" rather than "bitcoin" because bitcoin is obviously only one of them, and any of them would serve for that otiginal goal.
-you don't own any "cryptocoins"
One excuse for that is that it helps me keep neutral. Fom watching the bitcoin scene, I now strongly suspect that if I owned even
one bitcon, I would start looking for "bullish" facts and thoughts and ignoring "bearish" ones, would prefer models that show its price going up, would wish for more people to invest in it, would wish for the other altcoins to fail, ....
I respect your claim to remain neutral; however, you should at least go through the process of purchasing 1 BTC or some fragment of a BTC (eg .1 BTC). Your investment does NOT need to be a lot in order to improve your experiencial knowledge.
