Can't say for sure how XRP will pan out, just saying that it's not going to $17,000, that would require a market cap of $750T. Can you explain something? What determines market cap? Is the volume part of the formula? What if two competing block chain technologies are starting off at the same time with the volume...? What determines the value? Coins * Price of coins BignutzisBack posted... I feel like new crypto added to coinbase would be most damaging by far to Litecoin It won't help, I'm glad at least LTC had tgat massive rally before any new coins were added though, so it's becoming a household term. emblem boy posted... Will there just eventually be only a few coins in the future? I don't get why there's a coin for every type of situation There will be a few dominant ones, but all ships will rise; so while some may breakout and dominate the world (ETH), others will still be valuable and serve a different purpose (SC, BAT) TheSockMonster posted... also, should one buy Ethereum now as it could keep increasing beyond $1k? or, should one wait for it to decrease and stabilize a bit before buying it? basically, do you think it will continue to increase indefinitely into the near future, or do you foresee it decreasing a bit and stabilizing? All cryptos may pull back a bit but it's not worth guessing, just buy in small increments every day until you get to your limit (i.e. $1000 every day). I think cryptos will boost hard after the CME opens next Monday. BTC first, then all alts will follow.

clearaflagrantj 12/13/17 12:48:51 PM #414:	HypnoCoosh posted... But what does this have to do with market cap and how is the price of a coin established? What makes more coins worth more? How does the peer-to-peer tech come into play? Market cap valuation is the amount of coins * the number of coins circulating, as in how much total money is invested in the crypto. Some cryptos are worth more than others because they have better marketing, better developers, better histories, better road maps for the future, better technology, and it serves a useful function. For example XMR and DASH are both crypto currencies purposed for privacy, right now both are top 10 coins, but I invest in XMR because I believe that technology behind XMR will become more valuable in the future. An important thing to know is that market caps are still HIGHLY speculative, and I have three examples why: 1. Bcash 2. Bitcoin Gold 3. Bitconnect 1 is a Korean pump and dump scam trying to steal the brand name, 2 is a lame attempt to hype up a garbage altcoin but create it from a soft fork instead of starting as an alt like Vertcoin, and 3 is a literal, actual Ponzi scam. Yet all three have very high market caps because most people don't know any better. The "correct" market values will find themselves over the next few years, we are still only in crypto's infancy. <cite>clearaflagrantj posted [p:892144210] in Crypto Gen...

Oh this is nothing, a 10-15% 24h drop is a nice walk in the park, especially after the massive rally we just had this type of pullback is like clockwork. People that held see their gains and sell for profits, happens all the time. As for the futures, institutional investors will be able to speculate and bet on the price of Bitcoin without actually buying any. This means billions of dollars will guess on whether Bitcoin's price will go up or down. Many people theorize that these investors betting on the price of Bitcoin will also buy or sell actual Bitcoin to manipulate the price and win their bets, for example someone with a shitload of money could hypothetically: 1. Buy a fuckton of Bitcoin right now 2. Bet that the price will go down on the futures market when it opens 3. Sell their gigantic collection of Bitcoin to induce a panic crash and cause the price to plummet, ensuring their bet wins If you ask me I don't think anyone is actually powerful enough and brave enough to do it, I just think the futures markets means more money will be in the crypto space and that long term it is either net neutral or net positive for bitcoin and altcoins. <cite>clearaflagrantj posted [p:892147186] in Crypto Gen...

People that held see their gains and sell for profits, happens all the time. As for the futures, institutional investors will be able to speculate and bet on the price of Bitcoin without actually buying any. This means billions of dollars will guess on whether Bitcoin's price will go up or down.

BTC/ETH is an extremely common trading pair where you can trade directly between the two. Trade your ETH into BTC then use that BTC for altcoins. There's also something called Shapeshift, but I have no fucking clue what it is, I'm assuming it trades cryptos into different cryptos automatically for a fee. <cite>clearaflagrantj posted [p:892147581] in Crypto Gen...
