Over the past several weeks it seems that the anti-cryptocurrency rhetoric being unleashed on the uninformed has hit a fever pitch.
When Bitcoin broke $2700 and then pulled back around $300, there was talk all over the place about how the Bitcoin bubble had burst, what total nonsense. In fact I said publicly that any pullback in Bitcoin should be used as a buying opportunity.
At the time I am writing this article, Bitcoin is now nearing $2600 again, and I have no doubt whatsoever that it is going much much higher, (along with many other cryptocurrencies including Steem)
What we have seen, and a trend that will remain in my opinion, is a loss in the value and thus purchasing power of the US dollar, but the anti-cryptocurrency crowd seems to be oblivious to this.
Another way to look at the anti-cryptocurrency crowd is this: there always has to be two sides of a trade, one will lose and one will win. I have no doubt whatsoever that those of us who recognize what I feel is unprecedented opportunity with regard to holding and owning cryptocurrency will not only win, but will win big time.

For that to be true steemit's market cap would have to be 234 billion... or BTC would have to be really up there itself and/or by the USD having lost much of its value. But I'd love to see $1000 steem :P

More and more these days what is driving my investment decisions is third party risk. Physical metals and cryptos held off-exchange are the only two that I've found that meet this criteria. I thought about real estate, but with property taxes, liability issues, mortgage market manipulation, and the need to get a 3rd party tenant, I've decided there's too much risk there. I agree with you, metals and cryptos are where to park your money.

Smart thinking. I used to think RE was the place to be but property taxes are the razors edge for me.

Real Estate is problematic. Foreign investors have seriously impacted the price in a lot of the major markets helping those areas re-bubble. Also the goverment is having money problems an increase in property taxes is not completely out of the question. Crypto and precious metals (metals depending on quantity) can be moved where as real estate cannot. So crypto and precious metals is probably where to go now.

Also precious metals mining companies... The profit made from the increase in price of metals will increase yet mining costs will remain same... $$$$

The thing about Bitcoin is that with no derivative market, no way to short or trade HFT it is very hard for the mainstream to manipulate Bitcoin's price. Bitcoin is trading in a real market meaning fear and greed are the real drivers. As Greg said, the trend is up.

Is it physically impossible to have a derivatives market because of the way Bitcoin is designed, or have they just not gotten there yet? I have heard of ways to short Bitcoin (can't remember where though), and have always assumed it is just a matter of time.

The banks won't create BTC derivatives because they can't control the price and they can't control the price because BTC doesn't have derivatives. Positive feedback loop for us ;-).

The more I study cryptos, the more I agree with you, Greg. Started an account at a leading crypto exchange, just been dipping my toe a bit so far. Think I may divest a little of my Goldmoney holdings and shift them into cryptos. Wifey and I are deep in metals, don't care to invest in stocks or bonds, but PM's infuriating 'sideways one week, smacked down the next' market pattern is discouraging. I know central bank manipulation in PMs has to end someday, but when? Meanwhile the bull market of the decade is just starting to warm up for the big parabolic move. Time to diversify.

In my opinion, we are not out of the woods yet. If cryptos gain more and more importance, the powers will intervene. They will not watch idle how the control over the money is slipping out of their hands.
And they are the ones who make the rules (laws), giving them all options to harrass crypto owner in every way they want. I see trouble ahead...

The dollar is almost dead. No fiat currency has lasted this long. Crypto is here to stay and is in its beginning stages. It is digital, it is global, it is safe! Three key characteristics of its future longevity. The anit crypto currency talk is only a small distraction and will have no long term impact. it is only a conversation piece. Thanks for sharing.

The elites are panicking and don't know how to deal with this and are trying to talk it down the way the federal reserve talks up the stock market.

Ripple is a prime example of a bankster led crypto.
However, I'm not saying that you shouldn't buy at this moment in time (we appear to be in a strong bull market). However, there is zero chance that all the current 700 cryptos will still exist in a years time.
Another thing to look out for is cryptos that aren't mineable, this suggests that cryptos can be printed 'out of thin air'!

I just sold to bitcoin to a 63 year old grandmother type I work with (I'm 60). I lost $40.00 on the transaction because the price went up at the time. She couldn't figure out how to get her coinbase account to work. Her bank also shut off her card because the transaction looked fradulant.

Hey Greg, great post.
Thanks for putting me on to steemit,i normally only stay in ordinary shares and ETF's, But this could be another of a few alternatives to keep me diversified.
I was a bit surprised to see how many crypto currencies there actually are, but i can see a future in steemit mainly because of the community backing it up. Its an interesting concept.
Thanks again.

"Will win big time" indeed....I'd have to strongly agree with you Greg! The massive allocations of capital going into cryptocurrencies and block chain tech is definitely a reflection of the instability we're seeing throughout the geopolitical as well as financial landscapes. This trend will indeed remain strong for the same reasons $GOLD will eventullly breakout of it's current apex pattern despite the manipulation. It also reflects the progress being made with the "war on cash" where the consumer is being herded into the digital world left and right which actually jives seemlessly with the direction the current tech renaissance is going in, especially as governments are now looking at ways to adopt block chain tech into there systems ...and considering the IMF's disposition, it will definitely be interesting to watch theses arbitrary transitions play out over the years as there are fortunes to be made and lost off fiat devaluation and value appreciation in cryptocurrencies which coincide exactly with the continuing infestation of technology innovation.....that said, $GOLD in spite of the manipulation will no doubt win in the end simply because of its physical properties, but with respect to tech innovation and the digitization of well everything, we are looking at a modern day race between the tortoise(gold) and the hare(crypto) which again will likely take years to play out imho
