What is STRAT but another Ethereum clone? It has even the exact same total supply, which makes people speculate about it reaching an higher price.

Why would STRAT go higher than what we have already seen? Is this another total shitcoin or has some fundamental value?

its the next ETH.....that is all you need to know...buy buy buy!

seriously though, I have no idea why its going higher.

Stratis is Ethereum but with C#, and as far as I can tell that's it.  Lisk is Ethereum but with JavaScript, and as far as I can tell that's it.

Well shit, on that case it may as well pump bigly. Lisk pumped pretty big. What's the ROI on that thing since the ICO?

Strat is already pretty nuts so I wonder if it will keep going on.

People seem to love the ethereum clones. Just make an Ethereum clone under another language and launch an ICO.

Stratis is not an Ethereum clone. However I can't say it will not rival Ethereum once the tech is finished.

I suggest you all do more research if the best you can come up with is C#. Trust me, you don't want to miss the boat, breeze wallet is due this month. ;)

The popularity of Stratis is beyond me - it's basically blockchain in a suit. Anything else?

looks like a insider pumping polo coin.

what did the ico look like? small under the radar job ?

It seems like whatever coin i read about on this forum blasts off shortly thereafter...

I missed the opportunity to own a strat before, i was able to join in an Ico offering strat yet i dont know why I didnt push it. I just regret it now.

If Lisk follows Stratis, then it has a long way up. Any other ethereum clones that have not taken off yet?

Stratis is interesting (I like C#), however I feel like it's facing the wrong direction. It's focused on integrating with Bitcoin and trying to get corporate partners onboard (since a lot of corporate businesses code in C#). However, Bitcoin integration may be a waste of time if Ethereum really does take over, and even though corporate support is important, if you aren't working towards mass public adoption you're bound to fail IMO. Nothing about Stratis seems to be focused on ease-of-use for the general public. It seems like they're hoping for their academy thing to handle that for them? The economy is based on consumers, and you need to focus on getting them into the ecosystem IMO.


I don't know if that's saying much though. I don't recognize any of the other cryptos on that list?  ???

They say STRAT is a platform and not a coin but personally I think it is still considered as a coin/token. Probably it pumped too because it was just nominated recently in the https://theeuropas.com/awards/.

There is no such thing as Ethereum taking over. Bitcoin and Ethereum do completely separate things. One is digital gold, the other is a corporation backed & controlled, semi-centralized platform with bailouts.

It does not have to be at this time.

LISK is trash. It will not follow Stratis.

Waves is the same as what I wrote for LISK. No idea why it has any value, then again everything is in bubble mode except Bitcoin.

At this time Stratis is only hyperbole & vaporware standardized to a non-preferred programming platform.

I think this is a correct calculation to arrive at current market valuation >

Cool Name = $500 Million
Cool Logo = $200 Million
Association to Blockchain buzzword = $300 Million
Vague Association To Microsoft Brand Name = $200 Million

VOILA! $1.2 Billion Market Cap Achieved

Well shit, could have guessed that by the time the ICO kicked in, now we all would be rich. This thing just went from $5 to $10. I can't help but feel like an idiot at the idea of jumping in, but i've been feeling like that since it was $1. I hate this feeling.

I just need to hit a homerun with some ICO and get rich so I can forget about paying attention to all those shitcoins. I want to focus on few coins but I dont want to miss the next STRAT or whatever.

To put your words in a more exacter manner:"I have failed to invest in a very prosperous project at the right time, and now I am envious of anyone who has heavily profited from it. Therefore, this project must be bad."

If you had invested 1 BTC in Stratis, which was around ~$600 at the time, you would now have over $1m. Stratis is bwy far the most profitable ICO that there has even been. Ironically, it's usually the people which one classifies as "a fool and his money are soon parted" that tend to hit these "homeruns".

Stratis is kinda similar to ETH since both of them are platforms for dev smart contracts and applications based on the blockchain. However, thit is where their similarities end. Stratis' native language is C#, which is different from ethereums and it means that devs don't have to learn a new language from scratch to develop the apps and smart contracts.

yep . Developers who already know and use C# (and there are loads of them) will be able to easily and immediately create apps for use in business.
Compare that with Ether where they have to learn a new language

Stratis will also run the application on sidechains. So umlike Ethereum the main chain won't get bloated.

Also Bitcoin core developer Nic Dorier, working with Stratis,  created a Bitcoin full node in C#

i am waiting for strat down so i can buy  strat again because i am selling strat too early but its fine for me because i am make big profit. i think strat is a good to make profit as long as the coins have power to go up, but it need more time before the price is increase more, maybe it will have correction price first.

Im sure one of the upcoming ICO's (bancor, tezos, etc) will deliver great returns, so I guess it's a matter of investing some on each of them.

Then again, apparently the Stratis ICO went pretty low key.. which is a requirement to get insane ROI. I feel like the bigger ICOs may be too pumped since day 1 so you can't expect massive ROI...

How can you find a massive ROI ICO anymore if there are people investing on all of them?

https://icostats.com/roi-since-ico

All of those are on the green since ICO.

The problem again is, all good ICOs will be impossible to get in from now on due ETH whales raising gas price.

Watch this and hold!

P.S I put image in [img] tags but doesnt show up :X

That is because you are a newbie. This looks like a very good comparison and explains why Stratis is undervalued. It's actually going to be superior to ETH.

I doubt it.

If you want massive gains, comparable to Stratis, the ICO needs to have a fairly low CAP/raised amount. Otherwise it will not work. It needs to be $10m or less.

They only list specific ICOs, thus also only those in the green.

Lets say I want to buy some STRAT on the exchange where do I move it to? What are my options?

Most of this info can be found on their website, but here is the link to the wallet

https://stratisplatform.com/wallets/

Totally agree with this.

Yes, it is profitable. But it does not mean that it is good in a technological perspective. 

Poloniex to purchase then Stratis Electrum if you don't want to synchronize a full node.

Said the person advertising something without any kind of product or substance behind the project. You're dumber than you look. ::) Stratis is very strong on the technological side, and is likely to surpass ETH if they don't create fatal flaws. ETH had to invent some kind of trash scripting language to make their product work. This was likely done to initially reduce the amount of people familiar with it and rake in money via "consulting" and whatnot.

People convince themselves that Stratis is negative to compensate for the terrible feeling of missing out.

I know one guy who invested about $23,000 into the ICO of Stratis, now he has about $26M (never sold any and even bought some after the ICO). Now he has become a legend in his group.

Is it getting over hyped/pumped right now or is this sudden increase in result of a benchmark in the project timeline?

Currently $10-11 is a good entry price ?

Or i should wait it drop abit

If it is superior as ETH

Cheaper to generate coin

It will be also at the price of ETH Path?

Maybe they based it on ethereum on the supply but it will never be ethereum and will never ever be the same.They are two different coins in the market.but i think pumping of price by now is just  caused by some hype on the market

Really? that's a pretty large sum of coins, especially considering the breakthrough that has had, he happened to be a whale I guess.

Correct. This is a clear compensation for missing out.

Valuation correction in comparison to other coins. Stratis was severely undervalued in comparison to scams such as DASH or NEM.

You shouldn't ask random people on the internet that. In reality, nobody knows.

It's quite ironic though. Idiots are saying that ETH is a competitor to Bitcoin (hint: it isn't) as a way of compensating for missing out on Bitcoin. However, those two do not compete directly and meanwhile a superior and direct competitor to ETH is emerging. Stratis may be young, but it's setup is superior than ETH.

Correction: Stratis is better than Ethereum.

He had not "happened to be a whale", he became a whale.

Compensating for missing out again. ::)

Looks like you do not have to regret it, because if you're sorry now just wasting your time, better look at Bittrex now because the price is currently down a bit, I'm sure the Altcoin STAR price will go down in the next 1 or 2 days. Set up your Btc to buy Altcoin STAR.

How? ETH got a ton of companies already and is monopolizing the smart contracts niche. Do you really think Stratis can compete? Also there are more competitors coming like Ubiq... maybe Ubiq is a better pic?


But look at this shit:

There's a ton of %1000+ performers. All of the decent ones actually. Then there's a ton more around %100-%999.

Even if it says since ICO, if you bought when those hit the markets, you would still be pretty well off.



But the fun fact is, even after the shitshow that BAT was, with tons of money raised and most of it by whales, if you bought in the market, you would already be up %100+:

I regret that I sell my Strat before, I dont know that this will gonna happen. The price of Strat is increasing now, though I dont have already Strat. Still Im observing this coin.

Did you even look at the image? The only reason for which ETH has got a ton of companies is because: 1) Network effect in the smart contracts area. 2) Semi-centralized coin. Stratis having a similar platform with C# instead of the crappy language used in ETH already makes it superior.

If you believe in your own words, why not invest everything you have into several ICOs? ::)

Are you trying to get me to call you an idiot on purpose? You are comparing a 100% gain to a 100 000+% gain. As I've told you before, no ICO comes even close to Stratis.

You can't really tell what the best price for selling is. Either risk and hold, or play it safe and take some profits. If you do the latter, then don't complain.

This is Hilarious and probably quite accurate! the market is too hot ATM if you ask me but but there is no real thermometer to know for sure...don't want to get burned. If you are looking for the next big thing follow the talent and do your own due diligence...as new ideas and projects emerge every day 8)

haha it iss very easy to understand. Whales want to make the profit from this coin so that they decide to pump it without any reason. And when they sell all the coin, they will surely earn a big profit from this pump. Good job whales

the whales know that when stratis release the breeze/tumblebit wallet the price will rocket as its a game changer, even now after pump after pump it will moon when they release it, and going by the roadmap its imminent

50 dollars a token isn't unrealistic when it comes out

STRAT is just a ploy to get the owners rich. Nothing more.

What makes you say that?

The development of stratis is fine, but the smart contract development is still on the roadmap of Stratis, right?

this. strat will see massive exposure to the bitcoin community during the weeks / months following release

The team behind the project is solid.

being butthurt

"Why people not just use Litecoin?"

First mover advantage is huge. I don't think corporations give a fuck about it being "semi-centralized".
I doubt the change in coding language is enough to challenge ETH's advantage.

Maybe if there's a DAO 2.0, holding STRAT may bring massive profits, OR loss of confidence is lost in the whole "smart contract coins" and all go red.


So fucking what. The point is to make profit, %100 is still profit.

Agree with you. Programing language is not a strong reason for one project to succeed. Example: tensorflow.

You sound like a sour bitcoin maximalist.

I wanted to buy strat in January it was at like 0.20 cents back then, I really regret it.
