Don't buy while the market is crashing. Why try to catch a falling knife?

Until you are confident that the bottom has been put in, sit on your hands and do nothing. And if you can't do that then go ahead and masturbate with one of your free hands - assuming you cant trade at the same time with your free hand.

BTC might be going as low as $2K. Could be $1K.

Be patient.

They buying opportunities will still be there in the future.

If you try to catch a falling knife and fail, you could be damaging your capital in a major way

The best time for buying is when you see everything red. Even if it is going towards 3K or 2K it will rebound.

GREAT DUDE HEHE

You got a point. It's better to get more alt coin now I think .

Well, I don't know if that's the best way either, because BTC drives the market. I mean, I bought some alts at ridiculous prices (in comparison to ATH) but still, if BTC goes to 5k, the alts will bleed massively. And thats a good thing, the shitcoins will disapear, or at least people will be looking better into them before buying them.

Bitcoin has driven the market for cryptos so far. But we've seen bitcoin's dominance dwindle and the altcoins are getting more attention and looking more and more attractive now that some people have transacted in bitcoin ($10 fee and 2 hour transaction times).
I'm thinking this crash will mark the separation of Bitcoin and Cryptocurrency. Would love to hear your thoughts

Do you mean separation of Bitcoin and Crypto, or Bitcoin and Altcoins?

I could imagine both.

You know, I see bitcoin as if it was your lifelong wife. (Dont stop reading, it looks ridiculous but give me a chance to explain).

You meet the girl. She is AWESOME, the best, the future, you will die for her.(getting to know BTC)
You marry her, life is getting even better, fresh married life..great! (Your first profits)
The marriage stars getting dull, boring, you start looking at other girls. (You realize that BTC is not so great after all, so many altcoins, so much better, millions tx/s...hmm...maybe...)
When you have a moment of clarity and overcome the bad times in the marriage....you realize the value of that woman and of that relationship, and that there is nothing that compares to it, no matter how shiny they seem.

I dont know why, but I have a feeling that bitcoin is going to be massive. Maybe not as a currency, but eventually as many other things.

People talk about being the digital Gold. I agree. But I also agree that it can be the digital EVERYTHING of our world. I´m not very technical on blockchain, but if you can have some sidechains, attach other chains, forks, etc...bitcoin could host everything.

I imagine some chain that has a utility, and from time to time it inserts its state in the bitcoin chain. You dont overload the mainchain, but you "register" some state from time to time. Example: IDs. You have a chain recording IDs for people, a chain by itself secure, but not as Bitcoin. You could every hour/day/week keep updating your state to BTC. If something happened in your chain you could do a reliable fork from the BTC transaction.

I dont know, maybe Im getting ahead of myself.

The question remains​, will we use crypto as currency? (I strongly believe and hope so). If yes, which one, how, how many...etc.

I would rather buy in a bearish market than in a bull market. Most of the people who bought Bitcoin at 18k lost a lot of money. Right now I just think that the market is waiting for a trigger to get back up and when this will happen there will be a lot of FOMO. but this is just my humble opinion :)

absolute right point, we have to wait

You are totally right. It is normal strategy to buy alts when BTC is going down but only when you are sure about the BTC support levels. Where are the support levels now? In last few days every support in which I believe was broken.

Totally with you! I just but some fresh money into LTC and BTC as well as Lisk as I believed it was the bottom. BAM! Again 20% down. I am waiting now to see a continuous trend upwards, signs are not yet there.

An if I miss out 20% up for some days I don't care. Got enough to "win" with my current portfolio.

Once markets stabilise and I am out of the red I will start trading I assume.

All, be strong and think twice before following the "buy now" calls. Thanks for wakeup call @davebrewer

where do you see steem going relative to bitcoin in the distant future? (1 year ish) just curious

You are absolutely right,one should have patience

Buying more NEO, yes I love NEO...hopefully the price remains low so I can pick up some more.

i got into NEO when it was Antshares on ICO... it was doing nothign for sooo long time!

I got it at $0.26 and it's been doing a lot:)

Well I think it's better to wait because BTC is falling every minute now. In my opinion it's better to wait until it reaches the minimal drop. I think it better to go for Etherium or litecoin.

Fomo-ing Neo right now

Got some recently. Maybe i should get more

good choice.

I was thinking the same I lone NEO !

Love that GAS dividend. Brilliant. Should be able to live off of it in 1-5 years.

I just picked up some more steem! What a crazy ride, the market is really putting us to the test right now. Common bitcoin pick yourself off the ground!

nice one! keep it up!

I have just raised my BTC, EOS, NEO, TRX, COSS and BCO holdings.
Who dares wins :-)

I think the top 50 coins are going to recover well when the market reverses, is important to pick good projects because the market is becoming more smarter and projects without any use case and is just a money grabber will probably not be here in 1 year.
Thanks for sharing

I'm too scared to buy anymore, but I'm HODLing and using bounties and airdrops to get in on some new projects on a small scale.

Thanks Dave (I know you aren't actually wishing me good luck :-)). I put in a small amount of money as a long-term investment. I don't know enough, nor have enough time or money to daytrade, so I'm buying what I can afford to lose and keeping that money invested instead of freaking out every time the market dives. It's the same as any investment I make, whether in stocks, ETFs, etc.

This is a good way to pass time. Everyone loves airdrops! Where do you find them?

AirdropAlert. I've used this just over the past week or so--pretty solid.

Is there a link to that? I did well out of Bitcoin White bounty, and now kicking myself for not finding at least 1-2 week and just hodling them in a spreadsheet.
I just found this Telegram group ... Same thing? https://t.me/AirdropAlert

https://airdropalert.com/

Still look into them before joining. Not all are worth it, but most don't require more than signing up for their Telegram account.

EOS has some projects airdropping to token holders, which is a pretty sweet deal

Yes! Been stocking up a little on EOS. End of Feb for the airdrop I believe.

I am too scared to even look at the prices!!

No need to be scared. Stop looking at it and on Christmas Day you will have the best Christmas give you ever imagined. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised to see BTC above $40,000. Honestly. It's going to be awesome.

Yeah, same here. I am avoiding my Blockfolio app at all costs.

I had a look - woah your not wrong!!

Hahahaha, yeah. I just don't want to know since I'm investing for the long-term.

dont be scared :)

I don't run from the dips anymore (still a newbie - 1.5 months in), but I have a hard time giving them a hug just yet :-)

I'm right there with ya, entered in december and was feeling good through most of january til now...

Small scale here also. Scared to death of buying the big boy coins and how crazy it is. Talking about Airdrops, i'm giving away a few of my own coins from a new project I have been supporting the past month or so. Details in this post https://steemit.com/cryptocurrency/@spammy/my-first-cryptocoin-plus-free-coin-giveaway

Thanks, checking out now.

It depends how much fiat you have. It’s difficult to sit on a load of fiat when the market is increasing so much (like it did before Xmas), so I doubt many crypto investors have stacks of fiat to invest with!

Litecoin and Etherium always a top choice, I like EOS It is right up there with them.
There are a few other alt coins and of coarse steem, which is a really great buy, but with Bitcoin coming down, I think I will jump on more bitcoin a little at a time and some alt coin, being Litecoin Etherium and EOS.
Maybe even some bitcoin cash, it’s come down to where it was before it went crazy, so I believe it will go higher again, pick what you like and buy what you can afford and enjoy the ride!
Again Iwill focus more on Bitcoin, only 16 million makes me want part of that pie.

LTC is my <3
