There is a possibilty that one day there is an altcoin that will challenge bitcoin , but that will happen in the near future. For now there is no altcoin that could break what bitcoin has today. There are many altcoins in the exchange markets that have been pumping in their designated value but none of them reaches the half of bitcoins value. Bitcoin will always be the king of all digital currency,

2018 is yet another promising year for Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies. There will be more adoption moves from the mainstream which will push the price even higher. Companies like Amazon and other retail and ecommerce websites are likely to embrace Bitcoin in 2018.

Hi.
Your ideas, what will happen with alts, if BTC will have a lot of forks as it looks.
I'm thinking to join this crypto party, but don't know when, alts are bleeding, if in december will be BTC fork, they won't be in green for a while.
Maybe need to wait a little?

This is my first time hearing about Bitcoin Diamond, is this going to be like the Bitcoin gold airdrop where you need to own Bitcoin and then wait for the fork to happen ? I missed the bitcoin gold fork so I want to not miss the bitcoin diamond airdrop. I thought bitcoin gold was just a scam but then I look at coinmarketcap today and it's at  340$, it's really crazy now I am salty because I didnt have any.

It's usually the team behind the coin that makes something valuable. The coin itself doesn't matter but what matters is mostly what it represents. What it have to represent is an idea that will have real impact in the future. There are so many projects out there that are doing exactly that, they are not offering anything substantial or of value to future customers. They are jus tlooking to make a quick profit in the booming market and many of them manage to do so, which attracts other people to do just the same. It's a never ending circle which is why we see so many horrible and useless coins circulating. At some point they will all collapse and only the strong coins will remain. These will always be the one's that had a vision and actually impemented steps in order to realize it.

I have never thought of bitcoin going mainstream and altcoins to be the supportive system. All that I used to think of is the growth and the potential it has got to get implemented in various requirements. As the technology is getting used over different needs surely it'll last longer. When there is no competence the growth will not get exposed. Altcoins do the role of giving competence through the real time usage.

In my opinion it is smart to invest in bitcoin. The bitcoin price is increasing e its not constant, sovetime the price rises and other occasions the price fall down. But investing on bitcoin can be much profitable even it has higher risk because you have no idea when the price will increase or otherwise but ultimately many people are nevertheless profiting lots of money.    emn

i dont think will go 5k or even 8k and hopefully will be around 9k -10k for two weeks than we can trade and make some profit from altcoins.
there are many news about bitcoin and many new investor are interested to bitcoin so this price is still so cheap when you know there will be just 21million btc. (currently 16.7 m )
HODL btc or buy rigth now eth and POWR .

If you have some link with roger or jihan maybe this coin is for you mate, its difficult to answer your question as we don't know what could be the fate of our investment, its always the timing when to make an entry and when to exit, bcash already showed that there's also some big players who's willing to ride with this coin, just be careful and always take time to review and analyze before placing your investment.

Seems like the entire market is directly related to Bitcoin.. Doesn't suprise me, as it has been like this for the entire existence of cryptos, but in the near future i think some coins will decouple for Bitcoin and be able to trade on their own without being affected by other coins' price swings.

Wont BTC and all cryptocurrencies also fail if there was a global financial crisis? The traction BTC has gained is not enough to make it a self sustaining financial system because we still base its value on fiat. Think about it, it's fiat that's making BTC fly. Without it we would not give a crap about BTC.

My best  top ten altcoin  would be the best 10 on coinmarket cap  excluding bitcoin.
Ethereum is my first priority when it comes to altcoin,  Cause i know it will be a as good as bitcoins.price

I think Ethereum is next to bitcoin, because there are many merchants also that they accepted Ethereum as mode of payment aside from bitcoin, So meaning it has established also a big community users in this kind of industry in the entire world.

I always believe on a great ICO with a great campaign manager, because all ICO are really promising but not all are legit so we have to be more careful on joining ICO. I believe all ICO have a future if the team are really serious on the project, and hopefully no more scams ICO.

Whale should have enough bitcoin and altcoin to change the trend and price by himself. For bitcoin it is very hard they must have maybe more than 100 million dollars of bitcoins, but it is easier to be an altcoin whale. if they can start collecting from deep price and collects enough (~5% of total circulating supply) of it and also have some bitcoin to pump the price.

Maybe hes really from the future and gave us the chance to change whats coming,it can really happen if the BTC will be accepted worldwide,the government wont have anything to tax on,cash will be useless and the BTC will dominate thats a scary picture of our future.

I would highly recommend not to do this! BTC and ETH are likely to grow, but nobody can know what is coming in 2018 and maybe they will crash and we all loose out. Crypto, also BTC and ETH, is still like gambling. The most important rule therefore is: only invest what you are willing to loose. If you take a loan and find yourself suddenly in a bear market and your investment halved, you could have made the biggest mistake of your life. Dont do that, its too risky.

I think both of this are the same , once you invest , you already a gambler. In investing , you will be able to double or triple your profit if the ICO succeeded and the coin value goes high , its a high risk just like when you gamble. In gambling you will win or loose all what you have its a matter of luck and this is also too risky to do. Inveating ang gambling have the same aspects in earning profits.

I agree on the same thing which I do really much prefer to have a lots of exchanges so that as a trader we do really have lots of options on where we would decide to trade. Competition would really be here since lots of people would really decide to make their own exchange which this kind of business is really profitable if you did able to get the trust of the community. Support is one of the most important thing when it comes on this kind of sites because people do really like to have a fast and responsive support on any sites that they are using.

I think you can hold your altcoin in your wallet for a long time even for two years or longer. Its totally up to you. The amount of your token will remain the same but the value of it after two years or so, we'll never know. It might increase is value, it might decrease, or the worst case scenario, it might no longer exist. Also you will need gas to trade it.The gas fee after two years might also increase. I you think the token has a lot of potential, then keep it as long as you want, but if not, then trade it as soon as possible.
