for those of us who have been around bitcoin for some time now, we have experienced all the lows and the highs of bitcoin we know that after a bull run we will experience a bearish season that is just how the cycle is but i don't think the general masses are aware that bitcoin undergoes cycles

with countries like el salvador and usa highlighting bitcoin by integrating it into their future plans, how do you think they will take the following bear cycle? do you think trump is aware of this cycle? or will he also be anxious and listen to people who will spread fud during a time where the market is down?

Countries that adopt Bitcoin should understand its cycles, especially if they are betting on it. Most likely, major players, including governments, will use market downturns as an opportunity to buy more rather than panic.

As for Trump, it's hard to say how well he understands crypto. If he has good advisors, he won’t react to panic. But if he relies on the news and public opinion, he might fall for FUD, just like many politicians.

Many experts believe the altcoin season could start closer to mid-year, but I believe it all depends on market conditions and news. If regulations become more favorable or big investors start pouring money into altcoins, growth could speed up. So for now, I think it’s best to stay patient and watch how things unfold.

Yes. the altseason is still here and the market just needs positive news to get excited again and the government is also busy with its press releases almost every day. If not, my assumption is that the market will move slowly without having to always wait for the results of decisions about the current economic conditions. I think the government’s task that must be done immediately is to create jobs and maximum salaries for them. so. investment can be done by the community, monthly expenses for the family are met. This small salary is forced to work for a full month and all the reliance is on that salary.

Altcoin Season has not yet arrived, because Bitcoin hasn't reached the highest price for the Bullish season this time. Possibly after Bitcoin reaches a price of $ 120k, we will see Altcoin Season. This is just a prediction and can be wrong. But I read the comments of many people Dimari said that Altcoin Season was likely to occur in Q2.
Let's just wait for positive news that can encourage Bitcoin and Altcoin prices.

We have seen altcoin bull runs in the past and we are still seeing them, but the altcoin bull run has not been as expected. Most altcoins have not seen much growth in their prices. However, since the Bitcoin market is yet to become bullish, we may be able to see a big movement in altcoins as well. Some altcoins are still at a low price, which can lead to big profits in a bull run, especially Ether and BNB. There is a possibility of a big pump in the next 1 to 2 months, but it is always important to be prepared, considering both the positive and negative sides.

If the altcoin season really kicks off in the next couple of months, then the current low prices could be a great opportunity. But I think it all depends on Bitcoin’s movement. If it continues to grow, so altcoins will grow too. However the market is still very ubpredictable, so it's always wise to manage risks and not go all in based on speculation.

I agree. Bitcoin will always be the endgame for some investors from being active in some Altcoins that offers good potential I also did this because from the hype of Solana memecoins I end up holding my Bitcoin and forget it until I have to use it. Though I don't have that much but it is still better than nothing.

You made me to remember one influencer that bought one meme coin. What he did was that he wanted to follow the crowd to buy some meme coin during the initial listing but unfortunately, it was dumped on him, he wanted to secretly buy without his community but they dumped on him and he became one of the KOl of the meme coin.

There is no day that guy doesn't shill his bags to his followers, learnt he bought many as possible but never made anything, he loss more and he his waiting for another batch of people that will fomo into it again.

Those who are new to crypto and those who want to use crypto as a gamble will like memecoin and they will invest there. And memecoin has a very short hype while Doge had a long hype because of Elon Musk's pushing. But now his pushing cannot have the same effect on the market as before. And Bitcoin is the mother coin that controls the entire crypto world. And it is a legal currency in many countries. And it is also considered as an alternative to money, so no other coin can ever be compared to Bitcoin. So to invest in crypto, you first have to be able to accept the risk of investing in Bitcoin and then you can be able to accept the risk of investing in other coins.

Memecoins attract newcomers with quick profits, but their hype fades fast. Dogecoin lasted longer thanks to Elon Musk, but even that influence is weaker now.

Bitcoin remains the foundation of crypto, widely accepted and more stable. Before investing in altcoins, it's important to understand and accept Bitcoin’s risks first.

Bitcoin has shown that it can still appreciate a lot, but I believe that along the way it has lost its function as digital money. Transaction fees can increase significantly during market highs, and confirmation times can also take a long time. As a store of value, it can be a great asset, and it seems that governments and regulators are starting to be more flexible with regard to cryptocurrencies in general.

BTC as for now is good for bigger purchases, for smaller ones - yeah, the main chain is not viable for that.
But the future holds the most fun and adoption for BTC, so it's no wonder it would have such big challenges even in the future to come.

I'd say that most people use bitcoin as a store of value than for everyday purchases. High fees and slow transactions make it inconvenient for small payments. However, with the development of technologies like the Lightning Network, these issues might be solved. In the future, despite the challenges, Bitcoin is likely to find its place in the financial world, especially if interest in it continues to grow.

if I were paying with cryptocurrency for small purchases, I would use cryptocurrencies like Litecoin or Dogecoin, which have lower fees and faster transactions than Bitcoin.

In additions, if they aren't that confident with their skills to start trading live they may engaged in Demo trading to boost their experience to know how the market are being controlled, though it may seems awkward but realistically this would also build their mindset and their overall thinking about the general behavior of trading. Trading on Demo helps to sharpen properly to be able to defend themselves while trading on live account this would enhanced their experience towards handling real accounts.

No, demo trading will never increase our experience. It is just a tool to let us know a very basic thing. If we want to boost the experience, we should try the real trading. However, you need to adjust your capital with your knowledge/ability/skills. If you are still in the newbie level, make sure to use small funds. But if you are an experienced trader, no problem to use a big amount of money. Also, you need to improve your mentality in trading by having further knowledge. Sometimes having better knowledge, will make us to be more confident and think a more realistic.

Well I feels there are more to know while using it but however, if that isn't right enough to use then better but as many newbie that tends to rush to join trade should be extremely careful while going live because live is hard to control. They could get tempted and deposit huge amount of money with the thinking they would have it double immediately they trade without knowing it's an easy way to fall apart.

I believe that demo trading was originally designed for beginners to learn the basics of trading without the risk of losing real money. It's a good way to understand how the market works, manage orders, and use the platform. While it doesn't replace real trading, it helps beginners feel more confident and prepare for actual trades.

It turns out there are many conspiracies or signs that the altcoin season is starting.
Earlier, I saw on Twitter (X) that one of the signs of the beginning of the altcoin season is when Bitcoin drops, and BTC-D also declines.
Personally, I no longer care about the altcoin season because, in my opinion, it has been ruined since the emergence of Trump's meme tokens.

Can't predictable yet when aktcoin season coming, recently have prediction qith market easily raise to higher price when Donald Trump officially become president of US.
But one month after appointing as US president, Donald Trump not talk yet about cryptocurrency and right now market keep going down and not stable yet for raiaing to the higher price. Will this month bitcoin and altcoin season coming again or we must waiting few months later have possibility to see altcoin raise up to higher price and get dominance from bitcoin.

i'm just the beginning of the year, so the possibility of altcoin season happening is still a long way off. many predict that altcoin season will happen in the middle of this year. After donal trump was inaugurated, it seems like we haven't heard any good policies that have made bitcoin prices soar. let's just wait.

Many experts believe the altcoin season could start closer to mid-year, but I believe it all depends on market conditions and news. If regulations become more favorable or big investors start pouring money into altcoins, growth could speed up. So for now, I think it’s best to stay patient and watch how things unfold.

In addition to the many participants, the tasks are also difficult, besides that many platforms from several social media are now quite strict in guarding our posts because they are considered spam and inappropriate. One account may be able to be monitored if there are many, I think it will not be fulfilled optimally and ultimately also affect the results of the work on the airdrop project.

Too many participants but to me there aren't too many participants, it's just that there too many people that are farming airdrops with multiple accounts and this is killing the work of other innocent and genuine participants that are trying to make money for them selves, there is no valid reason for someone to farm one projects with plenty of accounts.

There was a guy that farm Story protocol today with 15 accounts and funny thing is despite the team fought hard against sybil and farming, the guy made it out and that possibly mean to the guy understand the game better than everyone.

Airdrop farming is a big issue. Multiple accounts reduce chances for honest participants and harm projects. Although teams fight it, malicious actors find loopholes.

Maybe KYC or behavior analysis could help reduce risks.
