How does the bear market we've been experiencing since mid January compares to the previous dips?

I know people say that things were shit for a while last summer after the China FUD, but was it worse or better than this?

I also know it took two years after Mt.GOX for things to pick up again, but were people constantly getting justed during those two years, or were things mostly simply dead?

The general overview of the charts make it hard to judge what it was really like.

Hard to say. These dips don’t seem to be happening for any reason which is scary, it means bots pretty much control the price, or huge whales (rich fucks, banks, funds etc)

Every other dip had an actual reason. Mt God, ICO ban on US, China regulation and the first BCH forks. They all led to pretty hard dumps which people thought would never recover from. These dips just happen for no reason really?

>> No.8346505

compare to the dotcom era. the phenomena don't exactly match, but they rhyme.
19-25 year olds using web-brokers ran up the dotcom market. the old folks pretended to understand and threw money at every IPO with a website.
sound familiar?
one or two of the pack will be big winners, and then another one or two from the inevitable "crypto 2.0" revamp will succeed. some of the tech is solid and will eventually prevail, but it will be on a longer timeline than you would want as traders.
the rest will collapse, and there will be a show trial or two as official washington catches up.

dunno about other boards (especially /b/), but alt+255 only functions as a space on /biz/
no idea if there's any way around this

anyway,
as someone who has been around since august of last year, the only thing that came close was the china FUD of september—and that was nothing compared to this shit
that was an acute crash that created a nice opportunity to get into a lot of chinese coins—this is a chronic series of acute declines
uuugh it's fucking slow
if you're like me and you didn't sell 90% of your shit on the way down, it's just a waiting game
october to november was a nice slight incline, with a lot of opportunities to 2x your money
unless you have money aside, this is just shit

The real reason does seem hard to pinpoint. Seems like there are new hypotheses every week.

The runup in November-December went too quick, so there was bound to be a correction, but I thought or hoped it might stabilize sooner.

I wonder if the people getting out now are mostly long time holders who are walking away with profits, or the same people who got in in November and December and who are now running away before losing any more. We'd think the people who have been in a while would be the ones cashing out, and some probably did, but since a lot of them also appear to be "true-believers" who might have also thought the market would pick up again quicker, I don't know.

I've been around since early 2013, so I've seen two of the last bear markets.

This time there is less sentiment that BTC or crypto is going to permanently die. More narratives revolve around "flippenings".

>> No.8346826

>>8346696
Maybe, but as >>8346505 says, it does have parallel to the doctom era. It might not be possible to throw money at anything that adds "blockchain" to what they're doing and double your money, but at least some should survive. That was my logic in consolidating into two of the big platform coins a month and a half ago, but that didn't really pay off.

>>8346706
Thanks, it did seem that way. But the market also hadn't gone on a huge bullrun right before then as far as I can see, that might have been part of what made it better.

It does look like there are strong candidates to take BTC's place, and the delays and fees problems that were happening in December probably didn't help its case. The last few months are also the first time (I think?) that it's relative market share is that low.

I noticed this as well. I don't think anyone ever expected a flippening to come from a bear market rather than a bull, but I'm beginning to think it's a more likely scenario.

In my personal opinion, general sentiment seems to be very gradually turning against BTC and toward ETH and other alts. It makes me think that the big alts (despite increasing BTC dominance for now) could actually bottom out before BTC and then bounce back in a way which continues to chip at BTC dominance at a faster rate across the long term. We might be witnessing the gradual death of BTC maximalism.

However I don't expect any of this to happen even remotely soon. I'd be surprised if this scenario was completed within 2 years, so we might have a lot of bleed cycles before then.

I am braced for 12+ months of bear market, I am still up 10x but lost a lot from ATH.

Decebtralized exchanges with fiat pairs are coming this year. Binance is going to dex. Circle(backed by Goldman Sachs) recently acquired Poloniex, so you can be with Circle and have access to fiat pairs for btc/eth and access the exchange from the account. Circle is fully compliant with legislation, is promising fast cash in/cash out(friend said KYC took just a few minutes) and circle is in talks to have liquidity with alipay, PayPal, etc.

So overall I feel prettt bullish. As they meme, the institutional money has not come yet. 2% of the derivatives market for crypto would be huge($1.4qt in derivatives alone).

Going forward, dunno what will happen with ETH/BTC, but keep on eye on security coins, oracles, smart contracts and the emerging idea of "cryptocommodities"

This correction is way worse. Until we know what’s going to happen with the remaining 1.6b, I don’t think we’ll go on another bull run. So that’s another 6 months atleast.

It sucks. I wish I sold in Jan when my parents told me too. I was too greedy

중국발 FUD입니다.
후오비와 커피 한잔의 미팅이 있었습니다. 3월 15일(미국) 중대한 발표가 중국 인민 은행에서 있을 예정입니다.
3월 15일 중국 인민 은행의 서류가 발표될 예정이며 어쩌면 대형 이벤트일 수도 있으니, 비트코인포함 많은 코인들이 위험할 수 있습니다. 이 서류에는 중국 채굴장의 전면 금지를 성명하고 있다고 합니다.
후오비 CEO와 COO는 더이상 중국에서 출국이 불가능하게 조치가 내려질 예정이며 베이징에 거주하고 있는 400여명의 후오비 직원들의 대부분은 이번 주말 싱가포르로 이동할 예정입니다.
아직 오피셜한 발표는 없었으나 곧 확산될 중국발 FUD를 살펴보시길 바랍니다.
