$3000 - $4000: 62 days

The Rise of Bitcoin is Too Fast for Me.

Like I have done many times before, I have taken my profits off of the Bitcoin table and moved to altcoins. I don't believe this rise can sustain this pace. If I am wrong my altcoins will still do well in USD terms but if Bitcoin has a nice pullback or begins to trade sideways my wallets will be prepared for an influx of new money into the altcoin market.

I have also taken a chunk of Ethereum and bought into a few ICO's. I will be writing a post soon letting you know which ones I like.

I am Not Shorting Bitcoin.

In the past I would have opened a short position but I believe that is too risky at this point. I don't have time to sit in front of the computer. This market is way to excited to risk a short position in my opinion.

These are Exciting Times in Crypto.

When the whole community is excited and talking about new all time highs I always choose to take a defensive position.

Here are a Few Altcoins I Own.

  1. Ethereum
  2. Steem
  3. Smartcash
  4. Neblio
  5. Flashcoin
  6. Everex
  7. Hedge Token
  8. Decent Bet
  9. Omisego

BTC is leading the way as always.
thanks for sharing your picks.
do you think any of altcoins will reach BTC status?

Take losses but let profits go, easy sound investment wisdom :-)

There are also some people who just learned about bitcoin. News spread like wildfire and you're all right saying that bitcoin is overbought. The only question is how long it will be sustainable.

Randy @hilarski I like your thinking and I think that there will be some good percentage moves in some of the Alts that you will be moving into....

I hope so and if not at least the alts should sustain in USD terms.

Excellent decision @hilarski, well it's good time to move into alts because the bitcoin looks to me overbought and you are right shortening the position in this time is also risky, i like the alts in which you are interesting, thanks for sharing very nice thoughts with us, Stay awesome

When I saw today bitcoin cross 9000 its behind my hope, I'm too happy to see this. All crypto market just surprised me within few days love it.. ...

bitcoin, investment profitable now, now 1btc = 9057$ , bitcoin going to very high

I think you're doing a mistake :)
I took a small profit of 5% and bought some ETH. I'm still 45% in Bitcoin. The upside is still incredibly big IMO. $10,000 will be looked back at as ridiciolously low prices. I wish you not well! (Since I'm on the opposite side of the table) :)

Hope you come back to your senses and join us soon.

i agree with you points now is the time to move to other cryptos from bitcoin because might be bitcoin start falling now just like rock.

Not sure if it is to fast, simple supply and demand and demand is increasing while very few people are selling their coins. The next halving for bitcoin wont happen till early 2020 down to 6.25 coins per block further increasing the supply and demand issue. This is why I love that there will only be 21 million however most likely about a million have been lost in a black hole.

You may be right but my spidey senses are telling me to be cautious.

It's never a bad idea to take profits, sometimes its a good idea to get out too soon than to stick around a little too long and not able to get out. Bitcoin is and probably always will be number one, but I just don't see how its possible for it to sustain this momentum right now. Cheers to profits

If btc go down, i think also alts will go down.

Initially yes, but the money will flow into alts if it trades sideways after the dip.

Agree, waiting for btc sideways!

I think you made the right choice. I adhere to the same opinion without risking. And there time will tell., We will wait.

An excellent solution and you are right, against the backdrop of Bitcoin's rapid growth, the prices for other crypto-currencies have decreased and now is the time to invest in them and your list is absolutely correct, my friend. Thank you for your constructive opinion @hilarski

Yeah that was a huge rise of bitcoin.
I could imagine that the whole crypto market will have a correction soon, but you should see it in long term.
Bitcoin as some altcoins will go up much further no matter if the courses go down temporary.
So everything fine :)

@hilarski, You giving massive point to society. Bitcoin investment profitable this moment bcoz it was overs $9000 I think. Its high reate. But have some risky situation as you told. This market is way to excited to risk a short position. Bitcoin also another cryptos pumping earlier. Great update news. Resteemed.

se tomara en cuenta para cuando yo empiece a tradear un dia de estos, no muy lejano la verdd es demasiado enredado por ahora-

Perfect solution and perfect decision you got @hilarski. Also great update news. BTC passing currently rise up level. (Top Class Level). But You have various ALTs. Is it better more than TC. Please update me.

sorry, I'm too busy with the over 9000 memes to think rationaly :D

Thanks for the insight! I have been holding alt coins since the beginning, and missed out on Bitcoin's parabolic move :( I am mainly invested in powerledger. So, I'd like to know : What are your opinions on Power Ledger?

Thanks for sharing this information with us, it has great value for me :D

Too many newbies on the Power Ledger bandwagon for me to be interested. I wait until there is blood in the streets before I buy a new token on the market. I bought Hedge Token only because I am on the team and I believe in the project.

Good time move for crypto , good luck
I think bitcoin reach 10000 in the end of year... So get ready for surprise... Boooom

you are a savvy invester! Not too greedy either. Cudos - respect

Everyone looks like a genius in an upmarket.
And, as Clif High says, I believe we have just entered the early adopter phase.
Meaning, a lot more money will be flowing into cryptos.

Hey @hilarski

I think Bitcoin is best cryptocurrency. It's growing rapidly and by just holding it we can earn passively.

Other coins depends on Bitcoin and if Bitcoin keep in rising other coins won't.

It's just my observation what do you think about it?

The Rise of Bitcoin is Too Fast for Me.

Not only for you its for all of us. The thing is, extremely high speed may cause draw backs..

Thanks for the update of bitcoin.it is valuable post.

Thanks @hilarski
Have a nice day

The Rise of Bitcoin is Too Fast for Me.

((((( Resteem Service)))))

A lot to learn from your view point. What do you think is making the rise of bitcoin faster than you expect?

New money

Ok. New Investors?

Thanks for sharing your altcoin list. It's nice to notice Steem rising at the moment.

Bitcoin is FLYING , whereas Alts are CRYING
I feel BTC move will continue till 10000$
LETS SEE

I think putting some profits into altcoins is a good idea. I still think Bitcoin will be hitting $10,000 but at some point people are going to start to look at the alternatives

I am new to crypto, but feel I must be doing something right since I have many of the same alts as @hilarski ! I always appreciate your articles and advice and would love to chat sometime!

Yah i am investing in ICOs with bitcoin profits :)

bitcoin up and up every day,

'When the whole community is excited and talking about new all time highs I always choose to take a defensive position.'

100% correct. Market is about to a huge drop & we must try secure our funds. Now it's best time to stay with Alts. Excellent tips & very informative post~


useful post about upcoming chaos of btc. nice trading guidelines. impressive post @hilarski

@resteemia

I agree that a short is very risky, especially if you can't watch the charts. Could the influx of hedge fund investors is building a new channel? Green channel could be sustained for a while? Then a short term target is $12,247?

Hello @hilarski,


Extraordinary good article with useful trading tips to the people who wish to make more profit in a safe way. Incredible post with a very effective analysis.

Hi Randy! What do you think about Vertcoin? It is my first choice in the altcoin sphere.
I see it very undervalued considering the developers roadmap. I see it working very well in the long term with either BTC and LTC with lighning and atomic swaps.

Bitcoin is a paradigm, great-grandfather, everyone believes only in him. I think that's a big mistake, you explained well

The below statement of yours has proven your deep knowledge of crypto trading. You mentioned Alts are good Alternatives and when comparing to USD, it always generate a profit as well. Excellent post.

I love the free money on Neblio for staking my wallet. Way simpler and better compounding than NEO.

I would agree with you about taking money off the Bitcoin table and putting it into other alts but I think it depends on your allocation. If you are overweight bitcoin then I agree

I just did the same thing. Moved mine over to BTS, STEEM, LTC, and ETH.

No news of forking anymore so money is going out from BTC again and into the alts.

You have great experience about market capitalization. So I was agreed your decision. Great movement of ALTs from BTC. But BTC very higl level in this moment. Is it risk condition?

Excellent Decision....

You own some smartcash too?

Oh, I need to take that particular altcoin serious now and maybe diversify a bit too.

Bitcoin do really have the potential to attract massive price pump, but what happens when a potential stuff is priced above it current potential and even into its future potential?

That's kind of risky and that's why I might be following your path boss.

This is very import information bitcoin is very high 9000$ . great update.

Thank you Mr.hilarski
100% like and resteem

Hey..Hilarski..
it's too much ....
btc price is being high so fastly...just i can't see..
it seems to me...like rocket

best of luck....

@RESTEEM###

Mate, I'm certainly no expert and I'm definitely not a trader but I've recently pulled all my original investments out of all cryptos so now I've got nothing to lose (actually I have, all the profits I've accumulated that could be lost)

Regarding Bitcoin, I'm working on the principle that no major dip has been lower than the previous dip, so I either buy or just ride them out and the price increases over time.
Are you suggesting that this may be coming to an end?

As far as other cryptos go, I've got ETH, BCH, BTG, LTC, EOS, STEEM and now Decent Bet.

In your opinion, do you reckon that's a decent mix?

An useful information and knowledge @hilarski.

This rise of bitcoin is very crazy. I will be on bitcoin a little more time. But I also like many alts. My favorite is EOS

bitcoin top leaver! per day

Great move !
It is going to be a great move in my opinion.for all the new investors it is a great choice/move.for the old who invested in bitcoin ,they are earning huge so we can say investing in Alt coins are a better move/choice for the newbies. it is just a opinion.
A worth read thanks for posting.

Nobody knows the end. Currently, I have the feeling that people follow the advise/forecast to have Bitcoin at 10k at year's end. Very strange. I hope it will not be a terrible end. Let's see if we get a big correction.

  ·  7 years ago (edited)

move to altcoins.sound good

If I divide the few dollars I hold into crypto, I can barely cover two of these, but I would still go for ETH and STEEM

bitcoin now is 9202 USD waaaw it's great
up up bitcoin

I don't think ETH is an altcoin.

I think there are several alt coins off of this last that seem to be significantly better options. Are those alts in rank order? Would be helpful to know where your mind is for future posts.

What about "old" altcoins like Litecoin and Namecoin ?

What about them? I don't own any.

I hope people who are entering in BTC does not suffer that much ,if it downtrends !
Thanks for the thumbs up !

Great article. I have finally started putting a little money into Bitcoin, seeing some small potential for myself. If I may ask, why not Litecoin? I have been purchasing Litecoin the past few months and I have been doing very well and see a lot of potential in its future. :)

I think it will hit 10k even before Christmas.

Excellent post and investment profitable now is bitcoin. great news
Thanks sir.

I've made the switch to alt coins too mostly. I never really held a lot of BTC anyways.

those alt's are the best lineup !!!

Missed cardano and lumens? Dang.

@hilarski,
"The Rise of Bitcoin is Too Fast for Me."
You are absolutely correct! It grows too fast, that mean a huge drop is near by! Great you decided to give the warning to the community! And you shared valuable ALTs that you already invested on! Very useful article from you as always!

Cheers~

Over 9000!!! Vegeta 🔥
