For the sake of cryptocurrency, we finally need bear market

in #cryptocurrency7 years ago


While many of us are happy about the current upward trend, which also enjoys people whose relationship with cryptocurrencies is indirect and results only from the use of STEEM blockchain, it is important to stop staring at the $ symbol next to the increasing payment counter.

Recently, the creator of Ethereum has threatened that if the community continues its blind rush behind the proverbial lambo, he will leave. I completely understand him because the goal of this revolution is to get more freedom and not lambo for everyone.

A frightening number of projects based on cryptocurrencies appeared in the passing 2017. Most of them have never been verified and should be. Because there are no tools and institutions that allow such verification, the only way to verify suspicious projects is the bear market.

It's hard to believe that projects that have collected millions of dollars in ICO and then were able to increase the value of their assetsby 2000% with speculation only, are suddenly unable to hire professional graphics and are looking for someone for $ 950 for freelancers (yes and 'm talking about populous, funny though internet is not blockchain based everyone still can verify this).

Buying billboards in city centers like New York to advertise unfinished even at demo stage project project - something like that I've never seen before.
The market has to come to its senses otherwise, regulations will be deadly

I agree, it is just going mad right now, but I don't think it is going to slow down anytime soon honestly. It is kind of taking on a life of its' own. I didn't know that about populous, but crazy. Do people really think Ripple is worth more then mastercard? I myself am invested in Ripple, but even I think it is incredibly overvalued. Cardano doesn't even have any of its' promised function, it is far from development. How is it worth that much. Blows my mind

funny thing about ripple as far i know it was premined at 100% .

The giant BTC has been resting ... We must be cautious when it starts to rise as it is already doing the ETH that is fighting for its second place since it is now taken by Ripple

breakout at 16k will mean new ath coming

Ethereum is one of my favorite cryptos, and I wonder about Vitalik sometimes. He is definitely a central point of failure or weakness since the community gives him so much power. Nice post.

Ethereum has enough assets to hire smart people, even smarter than Vitalik :)

I think you are for sure correct, but the community will definitely freak out if he were to leave.

Thanks for information..Resteemed and upvoted you.
