I have been looking forward to this day for long time. I am starting to see early signs that projects are starting to trade independently of "King BTC". Price of Bitcoin can no longer determine other Crypto's value or direction of over all market. Still very correlated but especially recently seeing some projects soaring in a terrible bear market. This is because these projects are close to main net release dates in Q2.
I find this Bitcoin pairing to be silly considering exchanges adding direct fiat support to alt coin. Plus, Ethereum has most of the alt trade volume with many new coins today. Especially, ETH ERC-20 tokens I have noticed carry higher trade pair volume than BTC pairs.
When Mr. Market changes his irrational mood from fear to greed again. Projects that have utility will rise exponentially in value.
Steem is fast approaching 1 million users and EOS is approaching main net launch in June! Steem and EOS both made for different purposes but built on same highly scalable and user friendly blockchain system created by Dan Larimer - Delegated Proof Of Stake.
EOS price soaring in market bear. (when most everything else trading down)
Funny how Cardano has higher market cap than NEO. Cardano has no main net near and no dapps, no adoption like Ethereum but 10% of its market cap. ETH still dominates 80% of tokens on the market. Its not going anywhere even if its slower to scale.
I see in particular EOS doing extremely well in Q2. $50-$100 per EOS is very likely in 2018. Its not an Ethereum Killer but more like Microsoft vs. Apple. Competition is good and they each have there advantages.
People worried about recent Crypto crash should see this as opportunity. For example, when ETH crashed from $22 to $6 is it not better to have bought towards $6 rather than $22?
Today's $450 ETH price is yesterday's $10 ETH price. The price drop was 73% from ATH in 2016 and today drop puts ETH drop in same zone - 70%-75%.
As Investor its only smart to take advantage of new opportunities in bear markets to get best prices. An interesting area in blockchain for me in interoperability. Something I have written about in previous post. Several main nets going live in Q2 that will focus on bridging blockchains like the way servers connect via Internet protocol (TCIP IP) same will happen with blockchains sharing logic and value across chains.
