Most countries are in full control of their own monetary policies and financial systems. If a alternative currency is introduced, would this improve or reduce the efficiency of a country?

Will this remove their control or would it be just another payment option, like PayPal?

Why are governments so scared of Bitcoin, if they can regulate it's use. The first defensive tool seem to be banning the technology, which in my opinion should be the last resort. Should they not analyse the threat based on proper research and public participation. < like they did in Canada > and then make harsh decisions like this?

Why are they ignoring the advantages that this technology might bring and implement extreme precautions as a primary action?

Is Bitcoin really such a big threat to them or are they just misinformed on purpose? < influenced externally by people with hidden agendas >

Let's discuss this please.

https://[Suspicious link removed]day/top-10-reasons-why-bitcoin-is-falling-down

-The frontloaded success of cryptocurrency mining
-Regulatory roadblocks
-FOMO turned into FUD
-Rampant market manipulations
-No institutional money
-The ‘Blockchain over Bitcoin’ narrative
-News about the recent stock market crash 
-US investors avoiding paying capital gain taxes
-Mainstream media coverage
-Will the BTC price recover?

I am sure that the market will continue to improve in the near future. although in reality these days there are still small fluctuations in the price of some types of crypto currencies.

I think, now is a good time to buy ETH, if you have some cash for risk investments and you are ready to lose it.

yes, that is a very good thought, and of course it is thought of by almost everyone. well, besides the price is indeed quite low at this time. munkgin will be very good when you look at market developments first before investing.

i agree with you. alt coins is not good with me

The bad story for me was selling when the pump was in progress, ignorance about the graph at that time I was still panicking because I thought this increase was just a moment and would fall back, but in fact it was a tremendous increase and I made a decision to sell too soon. Regret felt very much to me after selling and then the price increased very high.

for now for the next 5 years, trading in both is still pretty good, the world economy is in a very supportive condition, it's just that crypto is still too opaque, it's still unclear whether crypto can survive in the coming years. But as of now, crypto is still worth it

Yes I earned almost $50 for 4 months in this bear market, really disgusting my wife always hate bitcoin now I just hope that market will change next year for more good earnings this bear market makes our life very unhappy honestly because all my holdings went down from almost $15k to $500 as of this time.

maybe yes, because of some rumor new investor in crypto panic and sell their coin.
or is the true market condition, we dont really know.

Seeing this condition, I became truly pessimistic. Even I, in November, did not believe if the price of BTC would reach up to 3700 dollars and now I have to accept the fact that maybe BTC will fall as low as possible

No, it will not substitute national currencies, but I guess that the time, when Bitcoin can be used everywhere will come. There will be BTC ATM machines, and the stores will work with this crypto.

I think, we don't have to study at university. even when you don't go to college, you have to study it through the internet, or something else. I am sure, this will certainly make your economic strategy better. Whatever the job, we must continue to study economics.

Hi all.  When the hype was at its peak about a year ago, clearly this attracted a lot of people.  I waited and watched.  Would love to hear views on if this is a good time to start looking at BTC and alts.

Also, have seen a few accounts that offer services (VIP signals etc).  Presumably some of these are better than others.... if so, what have been your experiences?  Thanks.

You better learn of what you have experience today.  Listening to signals isn't providing any good to you,  nor it will give you a way to have a good market strategy. You better play your trades without them by analyzing the market chart.

I don't understand how you can compare two different coins. Each has its own road and technology. The struggle goes for the second place, but I think and virtually am confident that ether will be in second place.

It is still very early to talk about it, because the growth of the market literally stopped there, so we just have to wait!

I agree now is the best time for investment over the past year , and I think this moment may no longer be presented in the future, definitely worth it now to buy cryptocurrency , but of course it is better not for all the money

And now ETH is slowly returning to the starting line ETH is rated as the best altcoin but its value is going down every day. And with the current situation, it is easy to predict that ETH will never replace bitcoin

  Being a poor, people that has not capacity to earned and learned with their own benefits cannot provide to their own and family needed or lazy people.I can say no people are poor if people have a vision and goals in life and determination without ourself or passion.
