Is BCH the currency of the future?

There has been a lot of speculation lately, mainly by myself, about how BCH is underperforming in the market.

The reality is that the crypto world has suffered a lot due to everything that is happening on the planet today. Wars, inflation, a politically divided world, extreme fear of losing everything, poverty, hunger, and unemployment. It is hard to keep hope alive that a highly volatile digital currency will be the future.

Those who are new to the crypto world, when you first introduce them to it, will always ask about price volatility. Imagine that you tell your friend to buy BCH at the current price and after a few days, or even hours, the price increases by 10%. The smile on your face will be everlasting. But what would happen if the price collapsed 10%? His face will not be pretty, even though you would have probably already explained everything to him and he would have accepted volatility as real. What happens is that it is never easy, except the first time you experience losing money due to a market crash.

So how do we put up with it? I just think we're all crazy. As much as it is said that BTC is king, we know very well that technologically speaking BCH is much superior, but that does not matter. BCH has been looked at for years as a failure, an error, something that should not have existed, and it is the main reason why its price hardly increases in the market, even when everything is increasing. It hurts a lot to see the price hovering around $100 and with a tendency to go much lower if things don't start to improve. So is it worth holding this coin? This is what I have been thinking since the price was over $500 and I have never changed to USDT. But everything has a limit, and I think that not only me, rather we are all reaching it.

Everything depends on the BTC rising in value in order to see the behavior of BCH. I hope he doesn't disappoint us again as he has us used to. I understand all points of view, but the reality is that nobody wants to lose their money. If you buy BCH with your FIAT money, the last thing you want is to see it lose its value over time, at least not so sharply. It doesn't matter if BCH is the best, with all its benefits, what good is it if the price drops 20% in a month? You lost money, that's the reality.

TheRandomRewarder told us a few days ago that he had given his last tip. Giving free money forever is not something viable for anyone, even if you have all the money in the world. This platform does not generate money anywhere, because there are very few who would come with external money to give tips here. Generally the tips we give come from the same income that you already obtained here.

I did not like something in his farewell, and it is that he says that he did not fulfill his goal of spreading BCH throughout the world. I think that he is not right in what he says, since, in my point of view, BCH has been widely disseminated thanks to platforms like this, only that the price and the current market are getting worse every day, in addition to the bad reputation that already has the coin, by the BTC maximalists.

It's time to wait for things to improve or finish selling the BCH. Marc sold almost all of his BCH many months ago, he was right, at least until then. You can be a fan and have hope, but at the same time we have to be realistic, and the reality is different, and it is very sad.

See you tomorrow.

People still telling you to HODL are doing the same themselves.

The bottom is a long ways down. The reality I see is inflated mid-market prices.

Exchanging money doesn't equate to losing crypto. That only happens if you buy back in higher than you sold, otherwise you make profit in crypto and thus fiat equivalent.

Always best to go with YOUR instincts and let people gamble their own money away, and have no delusions, in this market, all investments are a gamble.

Obviously, you know how to control your emotions. I sell my BCH and the second the price starts to go up, I have that gift lol. It has happened to me more than once. So I get desperate and want to buy again and end up losing. I am afraid of being left out of the big pum. But history has confirmed to me that everything that goes up, comes down and does so with much more force.

It's a patience game. If you can HODL and watch 100% of your assets be subject to Bitcoin (BTC) volatility and crashes in a bear market when it's near-certain it's going to keep going down, then you can easily begin monitoring daily, weekly, monthly, and quarterly trends.

Whatever % you do not lose is the same amount gained, but you have to factor exponential gains. It isn't just the percent you lost at your current value, it's that amount bought back in at the new low which is worth even more in coins and fiat equivalent. Doing this on repeat can make a person wealthy in a short-time if they are dedicated and lucky.

All investment comes with risk. That includes holding. I sold most of my crypto north of 50-55k and the vast majority of things I have bought have gained in value while USD continues to lose value.

No, that is not the reality. It becomes reality only when you exchange it back into fiat or USDT. And it depends only on you whether you make a loss or not.

Marc sold almost all of his BCH many months ago

How do you know that?

  1. It is real because you supposedly bought BCH to be able to do P2P and buy in a store or anything else on the internet, make a payment, etc. You bought them to use, and not to HOLD. Whenever I hold my BCH they tell me: But you should move them, because otherwise, the price goes down, etc. So? If you buy 100 USDT in BCH to buy at the corner store in your house and suddenly you have 80 USDT, what would you do? Don't buy? Do you expect the price to go up to 100 again? That's having money you can't use for years. I have many friends who bought BCH when the price was over 400. They have not been able to use that money anymore, for fear of "losing".

  2. Marc said that in a tweet months ago!

  1. You wrote about 20% in one month. Is one month sudden? If you bought BCH to buy something with it p2p around the corner, you should do it soon. Everyone knows the volatility of the crypto market. Selling at a loss is always bad. Sooner or later the market will recover. The bear market will be over. Then everyone will buy again when BCH is back at 400 or higher. But if you want to sell at a loss, feel free to do so.

  2. Can you share his tweet here?

He did not sell almost everything at all. I would have been very surprised. He still has 30% of his crypto assets in BCH. That's a lot.

From 100% to 30% is "almost all of his BCH" as I said. 70% down, that's a lot

He was never 100% in BCH. Maximum 75%. He did it a little more than half. But he did it with all cryptos, including ETH.

  1. Perhaps 20% is a bit exaggerated, but if it could be very easily, in a couple of months, we've been living it for a while.

  2. I should look it up, but it's from months ago, I'll try to do it. It will not be easy.

Don't despair, look at collin's charts and think long-term.

It refers to BTC, but when the bear market comes BCH will probably rise much faster than BTC.

Thanks. We all hope you are right. They are many years in free fall. It should change at some point.

I wrote a long time ago that we are in the bear mark. You can check my articles. There are people who have listened to me and are very grateful. And I say that we will also get back into bull market. I think that it will come next year, but I suspect that BTC will not reach 100k. How high BCH will rise, I can't predict, but I suspect that BCH will rise more than BTC and BCH will be worth at least 0,01 BTC.

Annotated for future reference. See you in December next year. We'll see if we're at 1000 at least or 10. I hope it's the first lol

1000 next December I think is impossible. In December 2025, perhaps.

I'll note if you sold when you commented on this, and bought now a week later, you'd be in profit.
