Is Bitcoin and all the Alt Coins going to crash soon?

Jordan Belfort does.

According to his most recent facebook post, he believes that the downturn isn't over and it's going to continue to dip deeper and deeper. Bitcoin is on the fall he says. He believes with the conflicts in India and in South Korea for regulations in Crypto Currencies is just the starting point to a failing series of events to impact the success of bitcoin and its alt coin buddies. He also states with the rise of fraudulent schemes in bitcoin and the inability for buyers to sell effectively when mass panic ensues and they want to sell and can't that others are profiting big time.

I agree that the hardest part in the crypto market is when holders in alt coins and bitcoin want to sell back to USD and can't they lose hundreds, thousands, tens-of-thousands. The coins or currency IS only as valuable as much AS you can CONVERT it back to USD.
I've had extreme difficulty on this as well trying to convert ETH to USD or XRP to ETH to USD. You end up losing so much money not in the transaction fee's but the time between the sale of the coin from coin to coin to US dollar.

Jordan also states that the masses of banks will hold together as well to allow bitcoin and their alt-coins to NEVER be usable in the real world as that is a scare tactic I feel and adoption could be in the balance. Remember Laser Discs vs CD's... Does any millennial even know what one is LOL. (not even Simba knows). Scary to think that the FED and others can squash an idea or a currency if it doesn't favor them. What are your takes on this post?

I think there is EXTREME value to reading his point of view and the comments therein. If you'd like to check out his point of view and read the full article click on his facebook listing today The link to his page is here Link to his page

Seems i can't link to his facebook post but he states

"The real crash is right on the horizon, and will be characterized by a one day decline of at least 40%, with the various crypto-exchanges locking up, which means providing zero liquidity on the way down. And while I'm not sure what day that will happen, it will be triggered by a combination of (1) increased (and coordinated) regulatory intervention, along the lines of what's happening now in India, South Korea etc. (2) the realization that tether was a massive fraud used to support bitcoin when selling pressure came in (3) a coordinated effort by the world's money center banks to make it virtually impossible to use bitcoin and its babies in the real world (4) the discovery that many of these so-called "hacks" were actually cover-ups for other crimes, like nonexistent coins and insider-theft (5) indictments being issued against the players who have been orchestrating the various market manipulations and (6) the previous 5 things leading to the end of what we used to call, back in the day: “the illusion of prosperity," which is what’s actually behind this giant bubble."



This is a direct paragraph of how he believes in detail the bubble is going to happen.

The link is not working. I´m sure it will be interesting to know his point of view, so I´d be grateful if you can fix it.

fixed or kind of lol

Yeah, was just reading about HSBC in England is saying no to crypto currencies with their cards because they're worried people won't pay them back. Which is straight BS. They love when people take too long to pay them back. Just another tactic to keep crypto from the world. It's going to have to be the people who give the value to the currency while banks fight hard against it to keep their power...we're in the middle of a revolution and most people don't even know it.

thats true. i still believe it'll be an uphill battle for adoption in the USA. with the economy almost recovered from that 2007-2008 crash, and unemployment still not the best, the adoption of these coins still remains a mystery. It needs to be easily accessible, and so easy a caveman can do it. but i have hope in the currency markets as well

Definitely an uphill battle. And from what I've been reading and hearing we're about to hit another financial crisis in the US. Interest is too low, not enough cash flowing around the system, inflation doing strange things, overinflated stock market...sigh Another crisis. Like we haven't had enough of those in the last 20 years. Guess that's what happens when you centralize power, disenfranchise financially the majority of the world, and rape the planet of its resources :\

when is this supposed to happen ?

Not 100% sure. Whenever the banks are positioned best for the next meltdown? I mean, not like the people who control the markets are thinking about us when they pull the pin on grenades like that. The last one caught them by surprise, but I can imagine they engineer them now...maybe that's a bit conspiracy theory, but with the way the world looks nowadays... sigh

It’s not gonna crash. It’s just a nice time to buy 💓

Also do you listen to Cliff High? He predicted usd$13888 by mid to end of feb.

HODL, I say, HODL!

i dont send me a link. I dont see bitcoin being anywhere close to that mid to late this month. maybe in june/july or start of Q3. It is a good time to buy. i think most people are still licking their wounds here. but i pulled most of mine out and will reinvest again soon. im still a big fan of XRP and have that mostly... :)

mind you, i have ETH, XLM, XRP, and i believe in some of these cryptos, and am headed to buy STEEM as well soon :)

Funny because now that Litepay is coming Feb 26 Litecoin has shot up $40. If Litepay becomes legit it's going to be really easy for people to turn ANY altcoin into cash.

Regardless, I think there is still one more crash to be had... I've been waiting to buy when that happens.

Agreed i see another crash as well that’s why I’m waiting as well
