I doubt it will. The starting year always brings the price down by 50%. Trends from the past three years suggest so. It will go back up in the future. For many investors it is a good sign as they buy low and sell high.

Granted bitcoin isn't moving as much as it used to but for investors it is a good thing. Most people buy when the price is low and sell when the price is high. trends from the past three years show that at the start of the year, bitcoin doesn't move that much. It usually stays along a fixed line. But as the year progresses, it starts to hit new highs. For investors making long term investments, a low price is good news. But for people expecting to make short term profits, they might just have to wait for bitcoin to go up and then continue from there.

Well if you think you can profit from it then sure. If you look at its value today its around $14,000. But it is bound to go up in the future so you can definitely benefit from it. Invest now, keep it for some time. Sell when the price goes higher than when you bought it. Now is also a good time to invest because the market is down. You can sell when the market experiences a rise.

XRP is the second largest crypto based on market cap. You can call it bitcoin's competitor. The reason it is falling because the whole market is seeing a dip in prices right now. Bitcoin increased to $16000 last week but now it is down again. And since the whole market is down, XRP and TRX are experiencing a dip as well. But it will go up in the future. Keep XRP, but change TRX to Ethereum. It is a better alternative. TRX is still struggling and there's no guarantee it will attain a sizable market cap.

Highly speculative. It dropped 13.87% today. But so did bitcoin and other altcoins a little bit. So the future looks uncertain. But then again since its the crypto world, it's always in flux. Hope it goes up again. 2018 and 2019 maybe the year of ripple or ethereum. Siacoin still has a long way to go before it attains a good value.

Well you're right to some extent. Bitcoin is well positioned considering the market cap it has acquired and the value it has attained during the past year. But if the market goes down, there is a high probability that the price of bitcoin goes down as well. But since more and more people are investing in bitcoin, this seems highly unlikely. During the previous year it did hit the $20,000 mark. This year it is expected to go beyond that mark, considering it does not run into issues like the end of last year which pushed it down to as low as $12,000.

Its good that it is making progress. But it is still speculative to say that it will go big in 2018. Especially with all the altcoins making waves. But considering the amount of market cap and the value bitcoin has held during the past week, it just might cross the $20,000 mark by the end of this year. Good time to invest though. One can expect a considerable return if they invest now.

Best if you invest in Ripple and Ethereum. As of now, ripple is trading at $2.84, and is increasing everyday. Etheurem has also seen a rise and is trading at $889. Last week it was around $750. So the best cryptocurrencies to invest in would be Ripple and Ethereum. Diversify when investing. Make sure not to put all your money into one cryptocurrency. Once you've invested in XRP and ETH, save some and invest in bitcoin as well.

Well, honestly speaking, bitcoin is not stable. It is the most volatile currency on the planet. Its obvious because it is a crypto currency and is not centralized. The fluctuation alone prove that fact. But this does not mean that all hope is lost. It will definitely go up.
The reason for fluctuations is because previously they were switching to segwit2x, so it went down a couple of notches. Now it is rumored that they might be merging BTC with BCH (Bitcoin Cash). Again, just a rumor. Not confirmed!
So with these kind of rumors circling around, people tend to secure their investments and cash out, bringing its value down. But it also makes some people interested and allows them to invest in it too, since the price has been pushed down. And this forces the value to go back up. So to reiterate, the value will go up in the future.

There have been speculations that Ethereum will become the coin of the year in 2018 but this seems far fetched. Bitcoin is still strong and sustaining. Sure Ethereum might come close to where bitcoin is right now but it still has a long way to go to become coin of the year. Moreover, there are still countries that are struggling with accepting crypto currencies. So when the time comes that they do, bitcoin will most likely be their first choice. Either that or they'll create their own crypto. Not saying there's no future for Ethereum. It'll still be in the game but won't be as strong as bitcoin.

Investing in BTC would be a wise move. As you said, it is easier and quicker than forex and stocks. But you have to be quick and careful when buying and selling. If you see that the price is going up, you sell immediately. Since it is a volatile currency, it cannot be expected to attain stability. Once you see that the price is going down, you invest more. In the future BTC is expected to go big. Bigger than it is now. Just keep a look out for the ups and downs in the market.

How about going for both? Think about it, if you move overseas you would have a nice job where you'd be earning a good 1K. On top of that you'd also be working on crypto during your free hours, doubling your earnings. Investing in bitcoin would definitely give you a greater return. So, i suggest you go for both.

Bitcoin has been known to give high rewards. People usually do so to make a profit. Notice that people will always sell when the price is high, and buy bitcoin when the price is low. This allows them to receive a considerable return. With such a volatile currency, the more risk you take the higher your return will be.

Bitcoin is a decentralized cryptocurrency - a digital currency! The most interesting thing about bitcoin is its value. It's price increases everyday. Currently it is trading at $16000 per bitcoin. Investing in bitcoin would definitely reap a considerable profit. Furthermore, bitcoin can be used to buy items online from stores that accept payment in bitcoin. Services can also be performed in exchange for bitcoin.

With 10K, the best strategy would be to diversify. Invest a little in Bitcoin, Ethereum and some other cryptocurrency.
It's not too late to join the party. Thinking it's too late to invest in cryptocurrency is like saying it's to late to buy a car... Everyone's driving one. Everyone's investing in it. So it's never too late.

Investing in bitcoin is much profitable as it is because of bitcoin that other cryptos are in business. Bitcoin was the first crypto currency to hit the market. It has since made a sizable growth and has guaranteed high returns. Even now it is $16,434 per bitcoin. I suggest the best time to invest is when the price drops a little bit... Invest then. And sell as soon as it goes back up...

I took a glance at MatrixCoin's future plans at their site. The way they are implementing things step by step is commendable.
I also saw some people here asking about making team members public. I think it would be taking a step in the wrong direction if the creators of matrix coin decide to make their members public. Its better if they operate the way they are right now.

Trading crypto is more profitable. Granted, its risky but high risk guarantees high reward. Stocks take time to grow and you'd have to wait a long period to earn your reward. Cryptocurrencies give a high return within months!
