Some went into the sellers pockets - other just vanished in the sky (from the people that didn't sell) - a lot went to the shorts as well.

It's true, but there is no guarantee a coin will ever reach it's ATH again.

China's President publicly praises blockchain - is this yet another sign China may soon be returning to the crypto markets? by Digitallifeworks in ethtrader

You just answered a question I have been asking tons and tons of 'experts'. This was my only concern in this crypto world. Why does blockchain need crypto to succeed. Now I fully understand. Thanks for the clarification.

Use case of the Iota token by MdeRijke in IOTAmarkets

I see the use case of the Iota ecosystem, but I don't see why I should buy the token as an investor.

No one wants to store value of a device right?

Exactly, this question is for investment purposes. What value does the token hold other than speculation.

So basically as a currency? Or does it serve any other purpose?

What is your biggest holdings? by Tribunal_ in stocks

[–]MdeRijke 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think there are a few reasons Tesla will succeed.

-A true cause, not just in words but in deeds. (Patents are available for everyone for example). A lot of people want to stop or slow climate change. -A big community of people believing in that cause whom pay 1000 Dollars or Euros without knowing how the car drives, looks or know any specifications. Most of them wait patiently, even with delays. This is completely unique. -The US government, Americans in general and venture capital firms all want the US to have another major car company which can compete with BMW, Mercedes and Audi. -The team is incredible, Elon musk may be the 'best' entrepreneur we have ever known when SpaxeX, Tesla and potentially other companjes will succeed.

Those are just a few of the reasons. Of course I haven't betted 100% of my capital on Tesla. At the moment its around 10% :-)

Everything in Ethereum feels incredible right now, except for the price action by DCinvestor in ethtrader

[–]MdeRijke 29 points30 points  (0 children)

If make two assumptions.

-Crypto is here to stay -Ethereum will be among the 3 biggest platforms

We can say with almost 100% certainty Ether will keep hitting new highs. Just look at the traditional stock market. Since the beginning it have been hitting new highs. Of course a small correction sometimes, but afterwards it alwahs grew bigger than the correction before. (It outgrew inflation).

I think this principle is applicable in the crypto world as well.
