I have been involved with the crypto markets since 2016. I just want people to understand that Bitcoin is still the absolute future. It is still up unspeakable amounts since it's conception, and it is still going up at a faster rate than any other asset, security, currency, or commodity in the world. Please do not panic guys. Stick with solid picks. My portfolio is made up of BTC, LTC, ETC, RDD, BAT, and DOGE... I have absolutely ZERO worries as a long-term investor, and neither should you. BTC and many other cryptos are going to be the future, of this, I have no doubt. Don't even be mad or depressed if you got in at the highs near 20k. In a couple years it won't matter. Just don't make the mistake of trading in and out of your positions unless you are an amazingly seasoned veteran in this space. Even then, those guys still get REKT! Just keep your cool. The markets will rise, no matter who wants to bring it down. The only thing I am worried about in this space right now is EOS and XRP. I think it is obvious to all people who have been involved in this space for awhile that these two coins are what some would call "HONEYPOTS" You should be able to use gut feelings and intuition to feel this out if you are a true investor and educated in this space even moderately. There is a video out there by Chico Crypto that breaks it down pretty well, better than anyone else I've seen do it recently. These two coins have been put in place to drag down the space when they feel it is the perfect time to pull the trigger.
Bitcoin Will Never Die, Do Not Panic Unless You are Involved With These Coins!
That aside, as long as you aren't involved with these two CROOK COINS or other coins below the CoinMarketCap top 100 you should be safe. Some will do better than others. But I want you guys to not be filled with anxiety and fear. I will say, if BTC falls below 1k per coin, that would be the time to start panicking. I think there is less than a 0.4% chance of that happening though, based on research our team has been looking at. I see market top coming in sometime by the end of the year 2021. SO yes, we have some time, unless a crazy catalyst spikes the market like COMPLETE ECONOMIC TURMOIL or another World War. Or even EXTREME natural disasters. Economic turmoil is more likely than the other scenarios with a 10% chance of it happening by the end of 2018, 18% by the end of 2019, and a 55% chance by end of 2020. The other scenarios for now are about 1.7% chance by end of 2019. I think now is a good time to invest. I would actually start between now and summer of 2019. Do not pay attention to day to day moves. Have a long term mindset as an investor. That is the only way to stay sane, joyful, and happy, while also making money. This space is High Risk/High Reward. We know this. This space can actually make you a multi-millionaire in the future. I am 28 years old now. In the next 10 years the market could 1000x and lose 90% of value 2-3times. The point is, if I use the investments as an early retirement fund to retire when I am 45 or 50. Within those 5 years between 45-50, I will likely be given at least 1 or 2 chances to pull my wealth out of the system when it is time. It is a very safe bet in my opinion. If you are younger than 30 I would take a pause investing in your 401k for the next year or two. You could instead take 2-5% of your weekly pay and instead invest it in BTC or LTC. These will still be there for you in 20-25 years at a huge profit. I guess I am trying to show you how normal, everyday working people should be looking at this sector. IT IS SAFE AND SO LUCRATIVE as long as you know what you are shooting for and you don't move in and out and sell because of panic and fear. Nothing else will give you this kind of opportunity in our lifetime most likely. This is a once in a lifetime opportunity, so please take advantage of it in an intelligent way. Stay weary of XRP and EOS. If you think I am wrong on that, then do what you want, I just want to help out the average working men and women who have been tricked by the elites, banksters, marketing, celebrities, and goons on the internet. If you like the idea of XRP, I get it, but there is so many problems with several different aspects of it. Move your funds now to BTC or LTC for most safety. A less safe asset that could have outrageous upside would be Reddcoin, BAT, or DOGE. ALL THREE ARE GREAT USE-CASE CRYPTOS that could have 500,000X gains over the next 20 years. If you have any questions, please feel free to ask. In this space a few good minds to keep up with are BitcoinMeister, Trace Mayer, Crypto Zombie, Crypto Love, and Charlie Lee. These are the guys you should be paying attention to. On top of EOS and XRP, I would highly recommend just removing all ties you have in BCH or any people involved with it. Not because it has bad fundamentals, but because of the garbage that has now tainted its name and this space. BAKKT will most definitely be a huge catalyst to start this bull run for the space sooner than later. Don't let them trick you, scare you, rob you, fool you, lie to you, shake you out of the space, or cause you to panic. Just invest little bits at a time when you get paid into some of the better coins. (Feel free to use my list BTC will always be king) Sit back and relax. You will make lots of money in the long run. PS, One Last Tip. I see some minor issues happening in the near future with several exchanges. My tip would be to invest in coins available on GEMINI and BITTREX since they have been proven compliant in United States, and they are actually part of a self-regulating group that has formed in the Crypto Space. These 2 exchanges will be the safest exchanges to use in the future.
