This is just a proof that last year's hype was a bubble that burst this year. Now that the bubble had burst, cryptocurrency prices are back to low prices. These prices might be its real value as.of now.

Since bitcoin is the most stable coins there, 50% to BTC. The remaining 50% to altcoins and make sure to allot at most 10% in an altcoin whose price is around $0.01. This altcoin will the coin that might give a multiplier of 1000.

This is very interesting. Ethereum price is now playing around $90, but one of its upgrades will be release on January 2019. How could this be very interesting for investors. Will you buy ETH before its too late for next year?

As long bitcoin continues to decline, so with ethereum. All cryptocurrecies are dependent on bitcoin price. As.of now it is slightly above $90 per ethereum. I don't think it'll reach $50, tbough we're not definite about that. With the current situation, nothing is impossible.

For sure there is a lot of reasons why the market is bearish for a year, but we should start shifting our focus on the applications of cryptocurrency and how it can help the different transactions. Start to learn how things work in blockchain. From there, we migbt start believing again to cryptocurrency that might bring back the bullish.

Re: The POSITIVE effects of ETH going down

For positive thinkers out there, they will sure find good news from bad news. One of the good news of long bearish market is that scammers are slowly moving away from ethereum, the king of ICOs. Also, the awareness of the people here made some not.so good projects easily exit the fields.

There are some people in crypto community who are believing that blockchain will replace the current banking systems. However, all their basis is the concept of blockchain that hasn't been made to its potential. This is my reason why I believe that blockchain won't replace banks.

Re: look at this article bitcoin at 5.5k and they still called it a "dip"
by
Vinz1978

"DIP" is relative, depending on which reference point are we talking about. If we gonna consider the higher price such as %7,400, then $5,500 might be called "dip" at that point. But, since bitcoin price drops further, then $3,500 is also a "dip" with reference to $5,500. If you're referring to the floor price, it is better called "bottom".

Re: should I start buying ICOs again

The market is still bearish and there's no sign of bullish market until now. Actually the market is not on a recovery period. It is still on a downward trend. Investing in an ICO is still a very risky one. We see a lot of ICOs didn't reach soft cap. However, there are few good ICOs.

Trading is not for everyone. I think most of the cryptoenthusiasts are not very good in trading. Because trading is for skilled and experienced traders. Special knowledge is a must and not that easy to grasp the correct strategy.

Re: most of miners are shutting down their gigs?
by

Only a small percentage miners has shutdown may be due to coins very low prices. It has a direct hit on miners who don't have enough funds to continue. This hasn't much effect on the cryptocurrency.

This year has proven how cryptoenthusiats recognize bitcoin. With its price had fallen already by $15,000 from last year's price, investors are still accumulating their bitcoin by buying more and more. Its low price might be too attractive to investors believing its price will go up again.

For those who bought their coins at higher price, the best thing you can do right now is to hold your coins until the next bull run. For others, this is an opprotunity to invest while the prices are very low, though it might not be the bottom yet.

Re: Blockchain technology in election polls

Actually it's been implemented as far as I know:

[1]Switzerland's “Crypto Valley” Successfully Completes Blockchain Voting Trial

[2]Japanese City Trials Blockchain Voting for Social Development Programs

[3]Sierra Leone Uses Blockchain To Track Election Results

[4]US: West Virginia Completes First Blockchain-Supported State Elections

For sure those progressive countries are already looking at this options. Not to save money but to make it more transparent to its electorate. On the other hand, there are those who opposes it, saying that we're getting totally dependent on the Internet. It's still a long way to go, but I guess its inevitable and we might see governments around the world slowly injecting it on their electoral process.

It's nice to know that some developed countries are implementing blockchain technology in small electoral processes. Little by little they are trying to test the capability of the blockchain technology. I will not be surprise that in five years time, automated elections are blockchain technology-based.

For now, bitcoin seems to be the barometer of the whole cryptocurrency that altcoins' price are affected by bitcoin. We haven't seen a time where bitcoin is going down while altcoins are going up. The reason for this is that bitcoin occupies the majority of the market which above 50%.

It's really history baby, bitcoin drops to its lowest price this year plus an 11-month long bearish period. What makes this very difficult is that we came from an all time high last year.

Investors are holding right now. While others are moving away for the meantime from cryptocurrency. Others are taking advantage of the down market by buying more strong coins. The market isn't getting better, maybe next year will be a better year.

For me, there's no need to worry because it's not just Ethereum that falls drastically, but the whole cryptocurrency market including Bitcoin. I think Ethereum's developer are looking for the best timing to implement the upgrades. The bearish market this year really made these coins to be on a downward trend. Hoping that recovery will happen early next year.

This is really the challenge every investor need to face, the unpredictability of the market plus the dreaded volatility. I think below $4,000 is already a discounted price, but for some they might think of the trend that it still downward. Better to evaluate the market before buying juat to make sure it is still downward.
