I think I’ve made about $50 and have tipped a lot of journalists with it.”
  • “A lot of people love BCH, and the Bitcoin.com service,” Jonathan Sampson, Senior Developer Relations at Brave said on Twitter. “We want these people to be safe, and secure when they’re using Brave. For this reason, a widget helps to protect their transactions,” he added.

However, statistics show that people are actually more interested in buying bitcoin than selling the digital asset amid the market downturn. For instance, financial columnist Michael del Castillo recently reported on how the San Francisco-based exchange Kraken saw an influx of new registrations last week. According to the report, Kraken saw an 83% increase in registrations during the week after March 12.

Kraken was not the only exchange that reaped the benefits as multiple exchanges across the globe are seeing higher trade volumes and registrations. Typically, crypto exchange volumes increase during a bull run but when the price slides trading platform volumes usually follow the falling price. The latest cryptocurrency crash has seen the opposite, as exchange volumes look like they would during a price spike.

Further, the traffic and volume overload came at a time when Coinbase employees are all working remotely from home.

I feel like the Federal Reserve should just buy $1 Trillion in #Bitcoin.

Makes more sense than what’s about to happen.

After the crypto market carnage, coins like BTC are still showing great form during the economic storm that has rattled nearly every market. If bitcoin and the 5,000+ cryptocurrency networks in existence were correlated with traditional stock and commodity values then the cryptoconomy would have likely been defeated on March 12.

A thread on r/bitcoin titled “Comparison between should I buy bitcoin vs should I sell bitcoin on google trends” shows the search term “buy bitcoin” has spiked well above the search to sell.

Central bankers, politicians and people like Peter Schiff, Nouriel Roubini, Warren Buffet, Jamie Dimon and many others have said for years that BTC was the riskiest asset and would be the first to die.

Unfortunately for them, their opinions don’t matter and the economic hardship is making people look closely at bitcoin and the digital asset economy. The crisis might be making people understand that more than ever before, people are searching for a decentralized, permissionless electronic cash system.

How to Invest in Cryptocurrency Without Worrying About Volatility

How to Invest in Cryptocurrency Without Having to Worry About Volatility

Seeing the value of your portfolio fluctuating can keep you up at night or push you to sell when prices are low, especially in a fast moving market like cryptocurrency. Luckily, there are ways to mitigate that.

Use Dollar Cost Averaging to Handle Volatility

Dollar cost averaging (DCA) is a technique that aims to reduce the impact of market volatility by cutting up a big investment into several parts of equal value and staggering your entry over a longer period of time. For example, if you want to buy $1,000 worth of bitcoin cash you might elect to purchase $100 of BCH at the start of every month over a 10-month period. This way if the price goes down after you begin your entrance to the market, the next purchases will get you more cryptocurrency and if the market goes up over a period and then back down you will be less impacted because you bought part of your portfolio when prices were lower earlier.

Obviously such an investment strategy will result in weaker performances under some market conditions, such as if the price skyrockets tomorrow and stays at a high level or if it just constantly increases. However, it will also prevent you from losing a major chunk of your investment if the market crashes right after you made a big move, which is a fear many people share. It additionally mitigates the risk of you panic selling when the price suddenly falls 10% or so if you bought most of your coins when the price was half of that a year before and so on average each coin you hold is still more valuable than it cost you.

How to Invest in Cryptocurrency Without Worrying About Volatility

As for actual implementation of cryptocurrency investing with dollar cost averaging, you need to set a schedule for buying and stick to it. You can buy bitcoin cash with credit card here or in a peer-to-peer fashion with Local.Bitcoin.com. Some platforms also offer a way to do this automatically, such as setting up a recurring buy on Coinbase.
