what is the best to buy right now?
they are both low.

SONM

SONM for sure, I bought some more today at 1689 satoshis. Buy every dip and hold till next year and beyond. The team is one of the most talentful people brought together to make their vision a reality.

SONM 80%
XTRABYTES 20%

Better to diversify.

Don't buy link, they have very toxic and aggressive community that is destroying them right now. Sonm is a better deal because it has been on crypto market for some time and it is listed on bittrex which is relatively safe exchange. You should wait a bit and buy some alts just before fork as they will keep bleeding due to next fork. If you time your deals right you can make like 30% in 1 day. The timing is very crucial, just do it on the day of fork.

Somn is good to invest right now, because the price continue to increase and for sure if you choose somn you will earn more profit and your ethereum will grow because of that.  But it depends to your taste what is good to grow your money. Make a research first so you can know if its somn or link is better to invest. Invest only you can afford to lose because they have possible the price decrease.

is it better to buy SONM-ETH or convert my ETH in BTC and buy SONM-BTC?

Check the price and do the Math yourself. Whatever people on this thread will say won't be accurate by the time you can execute your trades... Keep order fees in mind too.

bad move... it's not worth assuming the risk of choosing just one token.. diversify or you may regret..
by the way.. i also invested in SONM, but nothing is sure nowadays, so better safe than sorry

Well 5.4 ethereums is not a big deal right now, it is below $1600 in total, i would not invest in any of those ico's or tokens or whetever they are, ico's are being so risky right now and you should know that, the most important one, "utrust" is having some issues because a lot of people are considering it scam, and this was a big one..
A lot of them will fall in some days, why dont you invest that money on other altcoins? or why dont you hold those ethereums? there are better options than just moving to those alts/icos

you are so right ChiNgadOr
i left my ONIONS for SONM
but still manage some others ico's

Will be better to buy sonm token in eth pair, because the fact that the ethereum pair has a better volume than the bitcoin itself. and i think that was easy like you are using bitcoin to trade sonm token. but if you are feeling convenience by using it and you should go to the bitcoin pair. I suggest you just try to choose the pair that makes you feel convenience with your trade and easy to determined about the chart.

This guy knows thing.
SONM 60%
XTRABYTES 40%.

As some have stated I would suggest you to diversify, this is something I learned from the stock market. Never keep your eggs in one nest!
SONM is a good project, go for it, but just don't put all your ETH into that. I would suggest Vertcoin (VTC) as another option. You could split your ETH amount between SONM and VTC.

Please do your own due diligence before investing your money, I am not a financial advisor and the above is just my opinion.

Yes but this is not stockmarket. Put my eggs in one basket makes my portfolio 12x since last month and im not even joking.
If you really really trust that project in longterm , go all in , go big or go home.  
(Please dont follow my advise or you may go broke,  do your own research about the project first , predict the new trend for next year and make your choice. )

if you have only ETH is good buy use ETH
after have sonm token, you can sell use pair bitcoin or ETH can choose best rate

I say you put it all into SONM because I own it and I want a higher price so I can sell it to you and make money.
Any advice you get here is going to be 100% like my statement above. I'm just being honest about it.

Go buy sonm. What ever fudster saying i trust sonm. They are moving on development and marketing the peice also still under ico price and the use of platform is very good. I am not saying link is bad but the price is above ico price already. And in my personal rules of unvestment in crypto i will think many times before buying token above ico price except omisego..

What is SONM about? Never heard about this project.
Do they have their own wallet? Or this project on ethereum?

Nice project on both. SONM is good to be under ICO price, but ChainLink is better project.

You won't go wrong with any of these two, a combination of both might be good as well.

If you had to choose one, I would go for LINK, it's currently at 0.00075 ETH, which is almost 50% from what it was two weeks ago.

As in comment above invest in both. A little bit more in SONM.
SONM is long term investment, well a couple of years, but in crypto that is a whole new age.

this is by far one of the worst advices i have seen in bitcointalk.. You could  have ended seriously fucked by the market. It is not worth to assume this unnecesary risk. There might be a sudden bad new, product not achieved or whatever.. so Spread your investement ALWAYS...

If I were you I would just keep the ETH and not buy any of the two. But since you're asking about these specific two coins, I'd go with SOMN. SOMN has by far more implications in the future of the blockchain than LINK, just imagine a super computer who is able to send computing power to whoever needs it or has the coins to back it up. People will be able to compute things that they were unable to compute before, render images, videos and overal improve the processing potential of their hardware, which in some industries is a big issue. The thing about SOMN is that it has competition, from Golemm for example, and other projects. But the thing about SOMN is the community, if you join their telegram or other social channels you will always see the most constructive talks going on and that really helps both developes and user to grow the platform. LINK is cool as well, but SOMN has by far more pontential in the future, considering that computing power will be a major and even more important part of future's computing.

Investigate ICO prices and road map very well. What congresses to attend and what kind of innovations are very important details.

Distributed (fog) computing. Allowing people to 'rent' the processing power of people's devices to perform processing tasks - from rendering to simulations. They've got a project that has real-world application. They might not have the best marketing team in the world, but their devs are active and constantly updating.

exactly! I also put 80% on my popular choice and 20% on my second choice if i am choosing between two. its a great strategy if your main choice takes a dump u didnt loose as much!

Most importantly, they will change the "mining" paradigm by making the mining process useful. Right now mining just wastes a ton of energy just to confirm transactions. But with SONM, all the processing power will come to actual use. So that's a big upgrade from traditional PoW mining.

Both coins are good, why not spilt your investment and buy both. Good luck to you.

Well those are the two projects that he likes and we must respect it or offer other coins if you think you have a better prospect, of the two coins I will choose SONM, SONM is very undervalued at the moment, a 10x is probably going to happen in the next year and I think that is a conservative estimate, if I had any money to spare I will invest in SONM without thinking about it.

It is a huge amount of money of course, but i would invest all those ethereums in solid projects like Litecoin, or just move them all to bitcoin now that there is going to be a new fork on November 11th, and you can make some profit from the segwitx2 tokens that you are going to receive for free.
be smart and buy bitcoins, or just those altcoins that you know that are safe.
link is pretty new, nobody knows what can happen with it in some months.

i bought my SONM... but as you say Anonylz, i have to say goodbye to some of my alls to prepare my BTC basket.

Thks Skevin!
i will investigate

SONM

Buy both, use dollar cost average amd buy slowly in. I know its tempting to buy at once because of Fomo but dont do it. Maybe there is some terrible,news about the project or something better comes along.
Do Your own research

Cheers

Hmm let me think, sonm has very good entry point. Link is very good new type of project.
I would definitely say both. But of course portions out of your money. Don't forget to buy some bitcoin first as reserve.

Keep it in ETH. I think Ethereum has a much better chance for long term gains.
But if it's short-term gains you want, then you have to be quick with whatever coin is about to surge... by the time you read it on here, it will be too late!

Well, ethereum is one of the best to invest these days. Sonm is also good with its price will surely increase, so both ethereum and sonm are the best because this will give you gain profit.

Wow nice idea. And people can buy this power by this cryptocurrency? Or somehow in another method?

I don't know if having a Bitcoin reserve is the right move for everyone. If you only have very little money to invest and are still young it could make more sense to go risky with alts instead, since Bitcoin won't turn $100 into $1000 anytime soon.

Definitely SONM out of the two but neither are my favourite projects, I would much rather keep the ETH than invest in either but if you're set on one or the other than go for SONM.

If i were you I would definitely go with SOMN now. SOMN is offering much more compared to last Link in long term. If this 5.4 eth is all you have for investment don’t put it all in one tho. It’s always better to split in few so you lower the risk.

Why would you want to keep your ETH? ETH was specifically designed with investing in mind.

already got some secure ETH

That makes sense, rather than invest in the shit like sonm but i think that link was better than sonm, but to keep our amount in the major token will be a recommended choice. sonm gets dumped so hard

You clearly don't know what you are talking about and are speculating with zero basis.

Or can you actually make a reasonable argument as to why SONM should "get dumped so hard"?

Don't invest in LINK.
Go for the coin with the most people in it, the other coin looks like it could make you a few dollars when Bitcoin is ready to pump.

What's the problem with LINK?

SONM

This is a great point to buy SNM. Healthy roadmap for the near and long term:

https://blog.sonm.io/sonm-updates-and-specifies-its-roadmap-for-q4-2017-q2-2018-14d355cea6f

Sonm has better future because its market cap is much undervalued. Link is just hype, only brag about Western Union and no real partnership, just a pump and dump project.

Of course. SONM. It's gonna be rocket in next two months...
Buy and steady

SOMN is a good one indeed.  ;D

Link has better potential ..solid fundamentals.....next yr would be link year....

SONM is a general purpose world-wide super computing platform with a token issued on the Ethereum network

You can use it to rent processing power for just about anything

Bitcointalk thread: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1845114.0

Non, just save yourself time and stress and stick to the well known options like bitcoin,litecoin, doge coin and Ethereum. All these new coins wont see the light of day with price.

I just believe about this is the best time to buy sonm token because the price is really cheap, but about the tech behind it and it looks very odd to say about the sonm is a good project just like golem.

There are always exceptions to every rule if a person has a lot of money to invest then it is a good idea to spread your money in order to get the risk lower however if you only have a couple of hundreds of dollars then it makes more sense to invest it all in a project in which you believe in, you could lose it all that is true but if you are correct about your prediction you are going to make a lot of money and then you can change your strategy and spread your money among many alts.

Neither go for more established cryptocurrencies in the top 15, for 3.5 ethers and the rest equally divide between SONM & LINK.

IMO Link. SONM hasn't been performing for a long time now.

SONM has been actively working on their platform since the very beginning. There are very few projects that perform as well as SONM does.
