Bitcoin Forum

A news from ABS-CBN, a Filipino Media and Entertainment Group.

MANILA - An investor who saw a 39,000-percent increase in his bitcoin investment warned on Monday that many cryptocurrency investment schemes right now are scams.

Emerson Fonseca, Philippine head of NEM Foundation, told ANC's Market Edge that since he started trading bitcoin 2 years ago, a lot of scams have cropped up because people don't understand cryptocurrencies.

What are your opinions?

If you want to invest in crypto you need to know, what is crypto and what type of crypto will you invest. There is so many crypto in the world and there is legit and scam digital currency. If you choose now what crypto you will invest, be sure that it is legit and many people know about that. So that if you have a question about your crypto, you can ask someone who know about that. Therefore you will be updated what happen to your crypto.

That's actually true seeing that the recent busts related to crypto investments are bosses of the NewG scams and other similar ponzi schemes. The people who fell victim in these scams are the ones who were lazy enough to blindly trust large sums of money on other people without doing background checks and checking sources. Most people nowadays are looking for quick and easy money, which, at most times lead them towards something that will take their money away instead of profiting. With the cryptomarket gaining a lot of attention due to the gains it offers, many scammers use the term in order to lure people who look for the same opportunity but don't know how to start.  If only people would take time to read before spending money on such, I don't think there would be people who'd fall for such tricks.

Learn the basics of cryptocurrency.They are many cryptocurrency first try to know which are all good cryptos.They are many scams so analyse the cryptocurrency is legit or not then analyse the rates of cryptocurrency for few days before investing.If you are okay with the analyse and after understanding cryptos then invest.

i agree with this many people only thinking that they can earn on bitcoin not even understand is bitcoin thats why many scammer taking advanstage on people that dont understand at all on crypto.

Indeed, most people do not understand the cryptocurrency market.
Most ICO projects seem to be more of a scam, so I don't recommend any ICO.

before going any further it must understand what is crypto tujaun and the reason is also how big its role in handling the investment hence need to anticipate that how safe if we do investment dibitcoin because so many mode of blind and wrong fraud then there must be deep understanding. before doing that and when we already understand it should do for the future, do not just look at the benefits offered but how we respond to what will happen :)

you must nedd to know about the market and the coins very well.

Well it's definitely true. It's not really new information either. While it really depends on how you define 'scam' exactly, there have been countless altcoin related scamming going on for at least 5 years now. It's just now that it's exploded with this whole 'ICO' thing. But before that there have been all kinds of shady characters creating, pumping, and dumping altcoins. This forum has all that history written down and stored for the ages too. It's been a constant thing in this community.

if someone wants to invest in Bitcoin, he needs to take time and study first. everyone should understand all the advantages and disadvantages of investing in the crypto world. if you can, ask someone you know who already invested in Bitcoin. do not invest with a huge amount of money. invest a small amount. an amount that you are ready to lose in case that you have been scammed.

Its important to be vigilant especially when it involves money. Not all that offers the glory of huge returns are true and sometimes these are just baits made from the to gues of schemers and scammers. What we need to establish is the fact that before making any decision we would have to study first and take a lot of information from a lot of respurces. We can ask people and that is the beauty of this forum as it is a community weher we can share such things

Before you invest in cytocurrencies you have to do a full market survey there ar a long of scam coins out there you look at how popular the coin is how many people have actually invested in it to be on a safer side. And timing of purchase because the market is very volatile nowadays.

Yeah, there are a lot of scams right now. They were and they will be while fraud in cryptocurrency world is not getting punished by the law.

Of course he's right. That is why we shouldn't invest in any schemes, just put our money into a cryptocurrency of our choice and only go after established cryptos, not some new forks and coins that promise incredible acceptance by mainstream companies. We've seen too much of that already.
They should stop scaring people off because an average reader will scan the headline and remember 2 words "cryptocurrency" and "scam".

That is in reality evident seeing that the ongoing busts identified with crypto ventures are managers of the NewG tricks and other comparable ponzi plans. The general population who fell casualty in these tricks are the ones who were sufficiently languid to indiscriminately put stock in vast totals of cash on other individuals without doing record verifications and checking sources. A great many people these days are searching for snappy and pain free income, which, at most circumstances lead them towards something that will take their cash away as opposed to benefitting. With the cryptomarket picking up a considerable measure of consideration because of the increases it offers, numerous tricksters utilize the term so as to draw individuals who search for a similar opportunity however don't know how to begin. On the off chance that exclusive individuals would set aside opportunity to peruse before burning through cash on such, I don't think there would be individuals who'd fall for such traps.

How disappointed that people may just bragged bitcoin's name just to scam innocent people. Little did these people know, that bitcoin is tradable to make a profit out of it, disregarding the networking scheme invitations. Emerson Fonseca did a good job for warning people not to just easily believe on those traps as we can see how far bitcoin's popularity is going, right now.

You get Investment schemes where the name Bitcoin is used and then you get Bitcoin investment where people actually buy and sell bitcoins. There is a huge difference between the two, so you must make sure that you invest directly in Bitcoin, by buying and selling the bitcoins yourself and not through some fake investment scheme/scam.

I have seen many of these so-called Bitcoin Investment schemes that pop up, promising fixed profits < like 2% per day > and this must immediately raise the red flag. Do not let some unknown financial website, handle your Bitcoin investments, because they are not buying and selling bitcoins. <They are typical Ponzi schemes - Money from new investors are paying the interest of other investors, until the new investors dry up and then they disappear with all the invested money. >

If you want to invest in Bitcoin, buy the bitcoins or Alt coins on a reputable exchanges.  ;)

apart from a bad translation from Philippines to English, it is mentioning a good but obvious point. because bitcoin has a lot of potential it has been performing well and will continue to do so. this made a lot of scammers want to come in and earn a lot of it by scamming others. these scams are from spreading malware, to running scam services. and then with introduction of ICOs and how easy it is to scam people that way they switched there to continue ripping people off.

It is true, before we will invest to cryptocurrency we should first know the project that will be run. basic understanding of the cryptocurrency market into capital to invest. do not ever invest if we do not understand what is cryptocurrency.
with the news it, may reduce the scheme of fraud in investing.

Those who are being scammed are those people that are greedy as well, they wanted an easy return and easy profits from their investments, if you are cautious and prudent, you cannot be scammed. Bitcoin itself is not a scam, it's the scheme that made by those thieves are the scam.

I prefer to invest in companies that are already successfully working and entering the cryptocurrency market

I think it's depends in the persons on itself because every steps that we've made is base on our the ability and capability of the coin holder. Scamming is everywhere and  we as a person are much responsible to our actions. Cryptosystem can  brings a lot of benefits and opportunities to the people specially when it's always used in proper ways. The most important things  that we need to remember is that before involving in any investment we must need to have a full knowledge about it so we can't easily doing some foolish things by other persons.

Unfortunately after investing in bitcoin and crypto i think a low of newcomers
take a step into crypto scams without knowing until its too late, the lure of that
unbelievable offer can be too much to a lot of newbies.

This happened to me with a HYIP site. I got sucked in to an investment scheme
before knowing about what a HYIP was shortly after getting into bitcoin.
I shortly found out about them here on BCT thanks to the community.

My advice to newcomers to crypto would be to research "bitcoin and crypto scams"
on google and this will provide ample reading.

This is the link What you need to know before investing in crypto. (http://news.abs-cbn.com/business/05/28/18/what-you-need-to-know-before-investing-in-crypto)

If you'll read the article, Emerson Fonseca is discussing about the scams that are revolving in the crypto scene and that's what should investors know and be careful of.

I agree with your opinion, do not invest if you do not know the type of cyptocurrency. so your main capital should read the proposal about the crypto you want to invest, by reading the proposal you will know what poryek will do and will know the prospect of crytpo performance in the future. that way you will avoid the scam crypto type.

Oh my god they have news about bitcoin again and the article is negative and because social media or tv is very powerful and more trusted to them they have effect of this news to us. But here I will like to say bitcoin is not scam the trully scam is the people or the person who use bitcoin to scam the people's money and thag's not totally bitcoin or crypto.

For investment in crypto, a huge amounts of knowledge and performance should provide. A little knowledge dull headed person can't invest in crypto. Even he done investment, he faces a lots of losses.

I guess you posted in the wrong thread, I can say there are scam ICOs but majority of the "successful scams" is investors are at fault, why? some investors invest blindly and invest by hype. Those are the investors that doesn't even read the project's whitepaper and doing a detailed research.

Investment is risky and everyone should know about it before investing. Every project that you want to invest in needs its own observation. It is a scam or a really good project. You need to check the content of the project yourself to determine. Of course, the cryptocurrency is now full of scams.

Crypto currency investment is an industrial work, that requires knowledge on how to go about it. But nevertheless capital is also involved. Therefore crypto investment also need information, may be to join bounty campaign and go through website and white paper to get more information of the ICO.
Good luck

You will definitely get scam if one think that bitcoin is a money multiplier well definitely not one must know first about bitcoin and about crypto-currency,how it function, the flows and transaction about it if not well one will end up nothing. We must think that no one get rich without knowledge about what he'd did to have it well except you just bet then just a glimpse you'd become a millionaire but it's not like that. Study hard to be knowledgeable about crypto-currency and bitcoin.

My opinion is that before you enter in digital world you know everything,i could you say you are professional or knowledgeable in investing in crypto.Now a days there is a lot of crypto exist, legit and scam.You make sure that the crypto where you want to invest is popular,many people also used it and you know it very much.

we should know that altcoin is a representation of real life. fraudulent investment is a crypto project that has no clear purpose and vision, and that's a lot we find in every market.

you should also know that the team and advisor are the main actors who can control the altcoin.

Yes, i agree. Before investing into crypto learn it first. You need to prepare yourself the volatility of the market.

For me,because it talk about money and it is very important in our life before I invest in crypto I'll make sure that the crypto where I want to invest is legit,popular and many people used it at the same time they earned.There is a lot of crypto spreading in internet legit and other is a scam.You need to become intelligent and resourceful about investing in crypto.

there are three major great motivations to put resources into digital forms of money which is the cryptocurrency. Initially, on the grounds that you need to fence your total assets against the fall of the Dollar imperium, which is expected by numerous individuals to definitely occur sooner or later. Second, since you support the social vision behind cryptocurrency, that of a free and hard money for the entire world. Third, since you comprehend and like the technology.

Be that as it may, there are additionally terrible motivations to put resources into cryptocurency. Numerous individuals fall victim to the hype surrounding every cryptocurrency-bubble. There is dependably some person caught by Fear of missing out, purchasing enormously in at the pinnacle of the bubble, just in hope to profit, while not understanding crypto by any stretch of the imagination. That is a terrible reason. Try not to do this. Learn before you invest.

We all know that scammers is just around and trying to hacked our coins so better know the crypto you want to invest, have more research on it and try to keep safe your investment.

Before we invest in crypto we should do some research to prevent being scammed like some common questions in what is crypto? How does crypto work? Whos the founder of crypto? What are the kinds of crypto? Lastly what are the advantage and disadvantage of holding/using crypto?. There are a lot of article where in you can do your research before investing in any crypto its better to be safe than sorry.

Before you invest in cryptocurrency make sure that your crypto you choose was a popular like bitcoin, and keep research. It might be they victimize by a site has lack of details but their blame the cryptocurrency. actually its depend to the holder if they have enough knowledge they will not be victimized by scammers.

Before we invest in something, especially in crypto, know the worth,, think that you should have a good idea and know what the value is, choose whether it is legit or scam, to avoid the dissapointment in the end.

That it is a new market, driven mostly by individuals who are subject to rumours and fear

Firstly, you have to know the investment and bounty campaign you want to do before investing else they will make a fool out of you and run away with your money. You also have to conduct a research on the bounties to identify the ones that are scam.

Ofcourse you would not risk your money to something (companies or any investment thingy) that you did not observe and study first right? Before investing in cryptocurrency you must know the important details of the company you are investing to. But sometimes we cannot really prevent scams especially when the company that you are up to experience bankrupt. All you need to do is to prepare yourself with the risks you might face.

It is extremely true that we won't see most of the coins after 10 years from now and hence it is very crucial to take precaution while choosing the right investment options. One should invest his maximum time before taking any monetary investment decision and try to understand the scope of growth and plan his investment in that way instead of relying on other's opinion and research.

if I myself before investing in crypto is I have to understand the coins that I will make a place to invest my money and I also have to know the risk that I will get. so with us already well understood about investing in the world of crypto it is great to continue to invest

Before you join in any cyprto make sure that you make your own research and study about it. You need to have knowledge on what you're going in to. Beware of scammers,make sure thatbthe ico yplou're joining is legit . Prepare youave a lot of patience on waiting and holding your token.

it is true but this is no longer a news that there are lots of scammers out there, scamming innocent people in the name games, bounty and tokens. So before you put your hard earned money into any crypto investment, you have to learn what its all about and how to trade, you also need to take your time out and attend training on crypto market and crypto investment so that when you want to invest, you will know the right way and the right platform to get legit bounty, tokens, and crypto to invest in.

Some news about crypto currency for the future, that's something you should know. Because it is something that can benefit you or harm you.

What you need to know is investing in bitcoin doesnt make you rich instantly a lot of people telling you that his or her making this amount of money 💰💰 and your also want that it will not happened if your just beginning. What you need to know before investing is investing is really risky and so dnt invest all of your money because it will never always make some pump also dumps. Also what you need to do is make a long term investment in my experience its always work, in making a profit.

Before you invest into something, make sure you have all the idea on what you are going to invest in. Never invest in something you don't know. Invest first in knowledge. So first thing is, know more about Bitcoin and blockchain technology.

You need to know that the market is a volatile market,it can drop in price at any given time and also raise at any given time too,you also need to know your private key is a precious gold to you and it worth protecting it

First and foremost you should understand that crypto is not here to make you rich in one day and that you should be very patient when things are not going on well. Most people hear of crypto and come to invest with the aim of getting rich immediately but when there is a little dip in the market, they sell at cheaper prices. These are some of the reasons why people run at a loss in cryto.

read before spending money, see background is also a reliable source. Do not believe it, if you want to buy so promising you will be rich and successful with ease. Schemes and phishing can be resolved

The first thing is to know the price fluctuation of the coin, not emotional investment. The risk is high and you risk losing everything if you make a mistake. Be careful not to see the bull market, but sometimes you will die standing for your wrong decisions.

What I need from the beginning to invest in Crypto is mental. Because I know a lot of risk scam and also the risk of price reduction, then we must buthkan then it is Mental.
Selamin mental, Fundamental also very needed in investing. :)

investing in crypto need to have knowledge in programming mathematiques algorithme economiques blockchain .. etc as much you have more knowledge as much you have more opprtunity and capacity to invest and earn more than you lose, that's my point of view  :) ;D

Investing in bitcoin and crypto is risky indeed. Always do your research and own diligence before you invest on it.
although i feel sorry for the investors who got scammed by others, but i never stop to put my money in crypto because crypto is a
promising technology for me.

Before you invest in bitcoin, their some basic technique you need to know, you need to learn how the programming work, you to know block chain, and economic aspect of it, know how to analysis your risk, I, e know when to invest, when not to invest, above all carry out enough research before invest in bitcoin.

The most important thing you need second to money to invest is your knowledge. Even how much money you have, if you don't know anything about crypto, you'll end up saying that it is just a scam when in fact, it is not. Be wise before you do anything. Crypto is good as long as you know what you are doing.

Before investing in cryptocurrency we should learn and more research about what we invest.  Familiarize the market of what should we do and how to protect it. Learned about what we applying a campaign and when is the right time to trade it.

Yes there are so many scams right now in the crypto industry. I think before investing in bitcoin, one must learn the basic of btc, its blockchain process properly.

Knowledge is the best thing to achieve something based on this if you wants to invest money in crypto market then you should know the proper terms and conditions before doing any business so you can learn from and forum or websites based on this you also learn from YouTube so before invest you must know the key points of market.

Investing on anything is risk in this world. Before investin one should know the entrire details of bitcoin. Merits , demerits. Becacuse nowadays more scams are there. This is not only for bitcoin, it is applicable for all business also.knowledge is important for any kind of investment. Then only we can get a good ptofit.

If you want to invest on crypto market firstly you have to choose a coin which is better for you. Then you can check previous transactions price of this coin. Find out what types of investor are connect with this coin. I think you must need to know these things for investment in this market.

that's the risks that arise in investing bitcoin. if we are not careful and alert then others will easily cheat and steal your bitcoin. choose a bitcoin wallet that you trust and secure so you do not worry about theft and loss of bitcoin.

What kind of scams did he face? Well many people who don't understand about bitcoin, and have wrong perception about it, think bitcoin is a scam when everything doesn't happen according to their wish.
They though that investing in cryptocurrency will surely make them autorich, which is absolutely not true.
When they get loss, or they bought wrong coins, they think bitcoin is scams and others. While the fact is trading bitcoin or cryptocurrency needs skill, it can't be done easily and won't always gain profit. That's why they think it's a scam. So foolish. I think they need to know first what cryptocurrency is, how to invest well in crypto, and about the profits and loss so they won't think they get scammed.

Before investing, someone should understand the crypto currency market in depth. We should have been monitoring the market for a considerable period of time so that we know its movements and beliefs. We should not only monitor one market. We can understand many markets and compare them. After that, if we do not know something in crypto currency then immediately we must seek answers from the news or ask the senior. Besides that, we should also learn to make investment strategy and calculate risk management from our investment. The key remains patient and do not be rash in making decisions.

Theres a lot of thing you need to know about cryptocurrency world like how is it works and what are the advantages and disadvantages of it. Basic information is very important here because if you don't have any knowledge about it then simply don't invest because you are just wasting your money for nothing.

From the start we should know need to understand well the importance of crypto currency investing and how to avoid from the people making bad activity specially the scammer's need to investigate the reputation of project and the team member, because investing in crypto are very risky but huge profits they can earn if people knows the important of new currency.

Yes, before you invest on something, you must to study about it, to have knowlegde about it, to know the basics, the advantage and disadvantage, to know the market it belongs, the processes, and to where you're going to put your investments. Because if you dont know about what you're investing, you might be get scammed and all of your hard work might be gone to nothing.

At first you should have knowledge about Cryptocurrency.There are different types of cryptocurrency so you have to find out the good cryptos.You should analyse the cryptocurriencies which is legit & not.After you gathered good knowledge about it you can invest.

Before investing in cryptocurrency you should know the basics like what is cryptocurrency, blockchain, blockchain technology, Bitcoin, difference between coins and tokens, etc. You gather all this information from YouTube or Google.

First of all you need to know what crypto is then you should know about the coins and finally you should know how long to hold or sell i mean timing.

People are being scammed because they think for easy money without knowing the real purpose of their investment. Cryptocurrency is a good investment right now but since many scams are happening people should be more cautious when it comes to investing. Newbie should understand the functions of every cryptocurrency and they must know the risk of investing in cryptocurrency.

A very simple opinion about this scenario that we should just be precarious about the HYIP offerings and also Ponzi's like mining schemes, doubling your BTC etc. In reality there are such things like them exist and people mostly fall for that. They get scammed with thousands of dollars and globally millions are vanished just like that. If you see such new cases every where then panic attack starts everywhere and this leads to even bigger drops in the market and thus crypto starts crashing.
We should just keep it the simple way and going for earning out of the box is like trying to be very greedy about the whole thing which never works in good way.

Make sure you have done some research before deciding to invest in crypto. For beginners, start crypto investing slowly, do not be in a hurry to put all the money you have to buy the currency you want. And you have to be smart to choose the time when buying and selling, when you already have a case of buying and buying and cryptocurrency is not easy, need a good foresight in doing so.

Before investing one should know all the details about bitcoin. Merit, demerits and etc. Don't invest all the money what you have. Invest slowly. Otherwise you will loose your money. One should know daily market value of Bitcoin. And also should know,  best time to sell Bitcoin and holfing time.

That is really true a lot of scams are being known by people and some got scams too in crypto business. Bitcoin is not really scam but because of its popularity, it was being used by scammers to scam people and that is why people believe bitcoin is scam. If you want to invest in crypto try to do a keen research on how good is the reputation of the project you are planning to invest in. There are lots of project who offered high interest rate or high returns on investments but actually it has the plan of leaving out after getting the money from investors. So avoid this kind of project.

Always keep your private keys safe and never share them with anyone for any reason.
Don't trust third parties (exchanges) with more than you are willing to lose. Once you send it to them it's their crypto not yours.
To maintain anonymity stick to exchanges that have no "KYC" (know your customer) policies (decentralised exchanges)
Buy a hardware (secure offline) wallet. Best investment you can make. (Ledger/Trezor)
Practice moving your crypto in small amounts until you are familiar with the process. Always triple check your sending address.
Send the right coin to the wrong address and it's gone forever (with a few exceptions)
Practice using crypto in day to day life. Buy stuff and if you sell things, accept crypto as payment.
Only through acceptance and adoption can we take back money supply from the criminal bankers and their government lackeys!

First is you really need to know if you have enough knowledge about cryptocurrency trading. Second is you have to choose the right crypto to invest with because not all of them are profitable.

Before investing in crypto all you need to do is you should have enough knowledge in selling and trading bitcoin. Also what kind of crypto your going to invest with. Also the pros and cons in your investment. Be knowledgeable enough so that you wont lose your investment and earn triple times.

I have to know the validity of data data they provide
legality of cooperation, KYC of the team, reasonable business ideas, and some other parameters such as the size of the community or the interest of the community

You need to know that cryptocurrency is not a quick money making scheme where you can be rich overnight. Any services that promises an instant and continuous payment of interest to you for you investing in cryptocurrency with bitcoin in particular is a scam and ponzi scheme. Bitcoins and other alt currencies are traded on demand and supply and not something that is certain.

Before I go any further then I have to understand what it is for crypto purpose and its reason and also how big its role in regarding an investment so I should need to anticipate how safe we invest in bitcoin. Because so many fraud mode for deep understanding. Before doing that already understand what we should do for a better future. Do not just look at the benefits offered by them but how we respond to what will happen in the future. Thanks

there is no need to rush for invest,you got all time to raise your knowledge of crypto.the more complete your information,your success in investing is guaranteed.

The accusations from so called gurus was not enough. Now we have predictions from some random investor with a fictitious name.

There's a lot of people wants to invest but thats the problem here.. People knows there is so many scams news about bitcoin and it's spreading continuesly.. If there is a man who can share knowledge about crypto i think it easier to invest if you know everything.. I honestly says that i dont have much knowledge about crypto so for me i think just read and search any idea about crypto in the internet so we can avoid any scams..

If you plan to invest encryption currency, please be sure to spend at least 24 hours of effective reading time to understand what is the block chain, encryption money is what, what security measures should be taken before monetary investment encryption and so on. Remember, research alone is not enough, and you need to keep updating. It may have been true a few months ago, but it may be completely wrong now. Technology, finance, investment strategy, regulation and other things about encryption are changing at such a rapid rate that you need to update them daily. In cryptography, it's called DYOR: do your research.

Before you investing in crypto you must know about crypto and you should have proper knowledge about bitcoin and blockchain.you need technical knowledge also.when you gather proper knowledge then invest in crypto.

In my own understanding, the thing that you need to know in crypto is about how it works and its price trend. In this you could easily gain from ups and down of prices.

There are a lot of things you know before investing in a crypto. You need to know what kind crypto your going to invest first after if you know the kind of crypto then learn its pros and cons. Also learn how it works from trading to its price. You should be knowledgeable enough before investing to cryptos so that you wont lose any of your investment instead gain more from it.

I think you must need study,basis and knowledge about to know before investing in crypto.because nowadays most of crypto are a scam. if you dont know about crypto all of your hard work might be gone to nothing.

Understand the basics of cryptocurrency before investing, learned how it works, know the details of the project you want to invest, always take the risk so that you will not blame yourself at the end.

In my own opinion you should research a lot of things before considering in investing to cryptos. The kind of crypto your going to invest its advantage and disadvantage of investing to bitcoin be wise enough to know whats the legit and the scam investment. If you dont know anything about crypto then all your investment and the time that you give into it will be nothing.

A lot of scams right now especially they are using social media in order to earn money by other people`s investment, you should probably know what you are going to participate or you want to join. Make sure the site is secured but even though it is secured already it does not mean that the site is legit already check first the background and try to review all the important details before investing so that the money you invested wont go to waste.

I think you should learn the basics of cryptocurrency and blockchain it is your first step to understand cryptocurrency if you already understand it I think it is easy to get to know the others in the digital world.
Yes of course I think it is a sure thing to happen, this is the effect of bitcoin that has a very high price and very popular auto many of the parties who see the opportunity to get the results in any way including the scam schemes about bitcoin.
so if we are going to invest in bitcoin now it needs a very high level of accuracy so we are not exposed to the trick of the fraudsters.

Before investing in crypto be ready for yourself on whatever undertakings that you will encountered, know the details of the project you will be investing so that your money will be safe.

yes i think it's a scam on ico project. i often read it about ico projects that scam many people who are fooled by the ico project. preferably before you decide to invest first understand about the project understand how to roodmap, about team, whitpaper and others

I think everyone need to know about all the crypto currencies and about to know about their advantages and disadvantages before investing in crypto.They should have an idea about bitcoin.

There's a lot of information that you need to know before getting involve in crypto. Just remember that money matters in thisthe system and not just that also your time and effort. Make sure that it is safe to avoid inconvenience. One thing personal to know is that patient is needed in here so. expect to wait to earn.

For me., knowing in advance the conditions of crypto acceptance where we live, knowing whether it has been crowded a lot of people or not and whether it is trustworthy or not.
In addition., of course we must be ready at risk before into steps and have a more widespread insight related to crypto, well it seems that now more and more people are more focused and no wonder if many are talking about crypto news.

Investing in crypto is a good idea but first you must ready yourself to the challenge that is waiting. Life is not that just easy when you're here so expect trouble to come. Be strong and learn to trust the process in bitcoin. Information are all over the internet to know the system but personal strength is one thing to know because that's important.

If you want to invest in crypto or what in the world youre investing you should learn how to it and read it carefully. knowledge is the key of the crypto

As there are many cryptocurrencies in the market the first thing you have to know is that in which cryptocurrency you are going to invest. You have to gather each and every information about the currency and the main this you have to notice whether people are liking it or not.

Yes indeed there are many scam ICOs in cryptocurrency this year. In my opinion, you must always research what you want to invest.
i think if you do enough research and gathering knowledge about the project, i believe you will find a legit ICO.

certainly a lot of gan. how can i join invest in bitcoin. how to buy and how to sell. and learn a good coin to make investment. and many more. which need to be known to everyone who wants to invest in bitcoin .

First, you have to decide which of the crypto currencies you are going to invest. Then if you decided which one, its the time to know its basics, its advantages, disadvantages, its market, the process. If you know all that, you have a high chance of getting successful on the cryptos you invested in. Just be patiently wait and do hard work for you to obtain what you desired.

Actually, before investing or deciding to invest in any crytocurrency, one must first know what is cryptocurrency and blockchain technology. They must first know the basics; we must know its advantages and disadvantages  before jumping on board (which is the common mistake we, Filipinos make) .We tend to just decide something especially if it is surrounded by hype or it is the trend even if we don't really know anything about it. Once we heard some sort of news that someone earns large money in crypto, they'll begin investing and whatsoever without any knowledge. That's why they often fell victims to ponzi schemes and scams.

Even before the cryptocurrencies have come into existence, online programs such as PTC and HYIP are scammers money-making-machines so it's not new anymore. Scammers are just everywhere. They just follow trends and cryptocurrency is hot nowadays so expect them to be in the limelight too playing their games and just waiting for someone with a little knowledge in crypto to be trapped into their baits. So, before attempting to invest in crypto you have to educate yourself first as much knowledge as you can and know how to protect yourself from scammers.

If you want to invest in a crypto you need to know, what is crypto and what type of crypto you will invest. There is so much crypto in the world and there are digital currencies legit and scam. If you choose now what crypto you will invest, make sure that it is legitimate and many people know about it. So if you have any questions about your crypto, be able to ask someone who knows about it. For the future, do not just look at the benefits offered but how we respond to what will happen

Yes exactly people do not really understand cryptocurrency or the decentralized way of doing transactions with cryptocurrency. Cryptocurrency is almost to absolute decentralization that as we all know the possible effect of absolute decentralized and that is the power of controlling everything for those who lead that crypto like implementing high transaction fee. Aside from that since the government or the centralized establishment like banks had no control over with cryptocurrency then the latter could had difficulties on someone that might take advantage on others like scamming other individual on crypto. And scammers is so rampant in cryptocurrency.

As what I've learned only those who have less knowledge about crypto and those people who wants to get rich real quick are the ones being victimized by these scam schemes. There's no such thing as easy money without any risks. If you want to join in a ponzy and HYIP then the risk is very high. If its too good to be true then you should be having second thoughts about investing your money in it.

Reading the whitepapaer and the visible team and not invisible team in order to update the ICO if it is scam or not. There should have some some idea about the project. Maybe we should be more careful in joining the ICO so that we will not be scammed.

Thats it! that is how crypto currency work. if you don't understand what really cryptocurrencies are i suggest that you should read some articles or just in this forum to have a knowledge on what cryptos is. especially the bitcoin and about the investment thing. but for me, investing in bitcoin is never a loss.

I think before deciding to invest in crypto then the thing we should know is we must know the risk of investment in crypto and how to overcome it, we must know when the right time to buy and sell so will get profit

Its because mostly when we say crypto there are lots of risks involve. I agree with what he was saying that most people are not really well educated about what crypto is, and mostly some of them that are innocent were victimized by those frauds, it is because they also believe easily on easy money which is quiet impossible to think with.

Before invest in crypto you should know first what is crypto ..and you have to know how you invest in it.

People are scammed because they don't have enough knowledge about investing. Before we invest money we must first know some knowledge about investing and we need to know how secured our money is when we invest. We need to know the safest way to invest money and we must know how our money works so that we are not able to scam.

Well you need to understand that anything can happen in this space. Markets can crumble in a matter of minutes but they can also skyrocket in a matter of minutes. You need to ask yourself how comfortable you are in any of these two scenarios. I always find it amusing when people panic sell even when they know its not in their best interest. Always remain level headed in this space because it can cost you a tonne of money. Hope my comment helped! Please give me some + merit if you found my comment useful ;)

If you want to invest in bitcoin then you have to learn how to store bitcoin, how to trade bitcoin on the trading platform. Moreover, you have to know a lot about bitcoin, the market of bitcoin.

News are not always true, it depends on you who have invested in many times or as a newbie in cryptocurrency.

Risk of loss and theft, before investing we must first know the risks that will be experienced when investing, the risk of bitcoin theft or virtual money storage is susceptible to careless user mistakes, wallet can be hacked or stolen through malware, therefore we must be careful .

when I want to invest in an ico project the first thing I learn is the project when the project has convinced me then the second step is to see the team composition of the project if the two things are all good then I take steps to join the ico.

Before you can invest in crypto, you first need to know what the crypto is.There are many cryptos in the market.So, you have to choose a crypto market right now to invest.Besides, every crypto price will be well-know.To know better what kind of benefits it can get in the future.

Sad to say but it is true.i hear alot of news regarding that matter.same story end up victims of scam..that is why we need to study take time and  learned before jumping up to cryptocurrency investment .or ask advice from people who has experienced in bitcoin..

The only thing is you need to do is patience . If you have that you will be ableist to earn good profits otherwise you will not make a good profit in crypto currencies.

which must be known when trading is you must be able to determine the right time to buy coin and the right time to sell coin in order to get the benefits.

Right.With patience and hardwork,you will be able to widen your knowledge on cryptocurrency and blockchain technology through further studies and observations.It will really help you to avoid scams and even big losses if you deeply understand all about cryptocurrency.And having the fact that bitcoin is a very risky investment,then you should be cautious at all times.

I have been here for long time so I find that there are a lot of people that were trying to scam people and giving misconceptions about cryptocurrencies and blockchain, so you should look for more information in detail about a certain cryptocurrency.

Cryptocurrency is a high risk/high reward investment. You have to be prepared to accept the risk.So don’t go all in on an investment. After a long time you are informed you can make your decision more wisely.

When people talk about wanting to get into cryptocurrency but feeling like they’re, “too late”. Bitcoin does this thing call “correcting” every few months where it tends to drop in price drastically to prepare for the next leg up  -  buy in during any of these dips and you’ll be fine if you prepared.

On this earth, what has not been discovered is still true and vice versa discovered then will say it is false, not transparent

Invest to old cryptocurrencies like NEO, ETC, LTC and so on.. and you cant lost money or be scammed by scam. Easy.

Due to how lucrative crypto can be, a lot of scammers use that avenue to fraud people especially the ones who do not fully understand cryptocurrencies. Most of the scam projects or ICOs are easily detected if only you take your time to assess and analyze the project or ICO. Before you make up your mind to invest, check study the project, its developers, its social media, website and whitepaper for consistency in information they provide.

before investing on cryto the most important thing is to  check the cryto and what problem it can solve.You can also refer to their roadmap and white paper which will give you many information.

PRICE of bitcoin before December 2017 is really Brilliant price that's many company making their own business override to Bitcoin then they will convince many people investor to invest their business in exchange of double or triple their money after several months, of course many investor have decide to give a volume of money for investment but after DECEMBER 2017 price of bitcoin is falling down until it will going to the lower level of price until now. of course no profit generated from it and the said company did not apologized and suddenly it will disappear because of that circumstances. that is the story of some people apprehended by authorities because they defrauding of so many investor. BUT BITCOIN is not SCAM I admit that.

That is true. If you do not know what you are investing, you will probably end up losing. Every investment has risks. Especially in cryptocurrency which is very volatile, if you do not choose the right crypto to invest in, you will lose your money. So before you invest have some background check on that crypto.

I don't understand a heck what your post is about, especially the part below:

Why would the investor be scared because he got an overwhelming profit on his investment? Do you have an idea of what Facebook rages in daily as profit?

Anyway, in regards to the question you raised in the title: What you need to know before investing in crypto. I should think that would be that anyone investing in crypto MUST have that mindset that crypto is a RISKY business to indulge. Simply put.

To begin with, it is necessary to understand whether a project needs a society, in which its competitive advantage over the others. The second important thing is the team. If the team is strong, then not even the right project, can grow to the top 50

If the investment in ICO then need to be analyzed in advance the legitimate ICO or ICO scam. If investing in existing crypto coins on the market, first know the advantages and disadvantages of the coin and tailored to your needs.

There is no easy money in crypto just like what other people think it is if you invest, the problem nowadays many people were easily convinced they can earn bucks in an investment without enough knowledge and dont even check the background of those people who promised they can earn huge in span of few months.

Better to conduct a research (and dont believe in hearsay) on how to earn in crypto and make sure you're aware of the risk involved thus you wont be surprise if ever your strategy to earn failed.

Well if you choose the right one to invest in you'll not be scammed. When investing into bitcoin there's always that idea that it is risky and you might lose profit at some point but worry not, because bitcoin is risky only with its volatility nothing more and nothing less. But this is what makes it a good investment because you will get higher rates at some point.

Better to be careful than not because once the money lost it will be lost forever it will not return forever. It was a good warn to have some idea about what everyone wants to enter like crypto. Better to have some advices from others than nothing.

What do you need to know before investing in crypto?
you need to know before investing in crypto one of them is:
1. Choose the right time to invest.
2. researched and analyzed what coin is appropriate to invest for a long period of time.
3. see and also must be keen to see the opportunities that exist.
4. the advantages and disadvantages of the coin.
so my explanation of the need to invest in the eyes of the crypto currency.

I think you need first a knowledge in crypto study on how it works research the project before investing you need also choose a good ICO before entering the wolrd of crypto

If you decided to invest your money in crypto of course first, you need to know the real definition of crypto, what are the use of it, or any details that have a crypto. Also, you must know the different types of it so that you will know what is true and scam. In addition, join any group that talks about it so you will be updated and have someone you can talk to.

In addition to that you must analyze the coin and do some research,their developer,the team behind it,white paper and try to figure coin if it is in the list in reputable exchanges.

Before you start investing in cryptos, it is important to know what blockchain is, and what you are investing in from a crypto perspective.you should analyze which coin will give a better return or which one will perform better in the future.

You need to know what exchange sites are good, and where to purchase. that is all to it.

fraud in the world of crypto is certainly a common thing because today many of the parties who just want to make a profit by creating a new kind of crypto that attracts investors to join in the development of the project they are developing but in the end it all just leads to deception. then it should be for investors who want to invest in the world of crypto should be able to do research properly before following investment activities on a project that is not clear the truth.

All you need to know before investing - that you need to have a lot of patience! Also you need strategy, cause crypto market is very volatile.

Most people today are looking for an easy and quick investment without doing any research first. If we want to invest in the world of crypto, then we need to do research first to make sure the project is good or not.

Before investment in crypto one should know,
01. The current condition of the currency and also a comparison with the past value.
02. Availability of that currency.
03. Trusting rate of that currency.
I will only look for the above condition and then make the investment.

People need to understand that they are risking their money while investing on bitcoin, and most people do not even understand that before investing and they end up angry because of that

Let me tell you straight that there is something deeper than people not knowing cryptocurrencies as the reason why there are a lot of scams sprouting all around us. The bottom reason is that people are greedy. They tend to love fast and easy and big money all the time. And this is the biggest reason why they are blinded with so many investment offers. They are very easily baited. Even if their rudimentary research as well as a lot of advice say a lot against such offers, they buy them just the same.

I think we should be more careful in investing in crypto, more precisely we must be good at choosing the best crypto. to invest in crypto we have to look at the ongoing project goals and look at its official website so as not to invest in crypto scam.

you should use a demo trading account on some platform, have a knowledge on blockchain system and ico.

Some frauds that occur in the world of crypto make a lot of people become alert, even canceled his intention to invest. To find a good crypto and not a possible scam you have to look up all the information as much as you can about the crypto.

Because of the popularity of the bitcoin that can gain more profits by investing, many people are using bitcoin to scam other people and those people that has zero knowledge in cryptocurrency are the common victims. They are blind with the term can be double their money in just 1 month so they invest without doing a research about the scheme and late to notice that it's a scammed. Yeah, we should not in hurry to invest in cryptocurrency without the idea or knowledge on what is this all about. Invest only to those legit exchanges if you are ready to put your hard earn money into crypto as this is a risky investment.

Before we make an investment, we should first learn what investment is, this is something that is most important before making an investment because in investing we need a wider knowledge so that later we do not suffer a big loss

But the scammers are much professional nowadays as they get a perfect blockchain system (the coin etc) but when they collect money from people they escape with the money of investors. So better is that to search about each corner of the project. Reviewing the team members is important as if they escape away then you can file a case against them.

For me, before I start to Invest In cryptocurrency, I should do first search and gather Information,  so that I can determine which Is scam and good projects. And I should explore here In bitcoin forum to get more knowledgeable In cryptos, especially In bitcoin.

First things first! Have a research about the crypto that you are going to invest to because you are talking about money. Make sure that this crypto is backed by a very good team of developers and the concept of it must also be worth your money. As to crypto that is not listed in cryptomarkets yet (ICO), you must do the same thing again because scammers are just around in the corner.

Learn the basics of cryptocurrency first. Like what is crypto? what type of crypto would you invest? There is so much crypto in the world. And there are also many of them are scam. So now we have to know the basic and what type of crypto will be invested so that we do not lose money

It's critical to be cautious particularly when it includes cash. Not every one of that offers the brilliance of immense returns are valid and here and there these are simply traps produced using the to gues of connivers and con artists. What we have to build up is the way that before settling on any choice we would need to consider first and take a ton of data from a ton of respurces. We can ask individuals and that is the excellence of this discussion as it is a network weher we can share such things.

what I need to know is the risks and weaknesses of investment with bitcoin, it is most important if the investment occurs the problem I think we can already understand it and for me the big risk it is to get a big profit in investment

You're right ! A lot of investor are becoming scammed because they don't know and understand every role of cryptocurrencies. But, if we have knowledge about it - we can avoid being scammed. And at the rest, we need to study first the role and goal of crypto you want to invest to avoid the losses.

If you want to invest in crypto or what in the world youre investing you should learn how to it and read it carefully. knowledge is the key of the crypto.

There are greedy and bad people out there riding the popularity of bitcoin and used it to scam people for their benefits. That is a very sad thing to hear, but how can we stop them? With regards to any investment, specially to bitcoin, before investing, one should equipped themselves with enough knowledge about cryptocurrency to avoid getting scam.

If it fits with the basic we have then we will have the ability to continue it. Investing in the world of crypto does have quite a risk, so we must have the readiness to make the results satisfactory as well.

I think before investing in crypto you have a full research of what you will entering to invest. And first of all know what are they goal of them project. Investing in crypto is too risky so my opinion is to be aware.

Don't just base on the news just base on your own research and own experience because news is just an instrument to spread a fudd about the bitcoin is so that many new in the crypto would easily sell their coin in a lower price and many people would buy it and benefit before the year end.

Some frauds that occur in the world of crypto make a lot of people become alert, even canceled his intention to invest. To find a good crypto and not a possible scam you have to look up all the information as much as you can about the crypto.

Knowing some facts about Bitcoin is one of the things that needs to be done before investing in this field. Not too hard to do. Learn all about how to invest and then search for information on the Internet, then you will get a lot of references on all that. Or try to ask your friends who have joined first crypto. Surely you will get the information you want that will convince you to join the crypto.

If the investment in ICO then need to be analyzed in advance the legitimate ICO or ICO scam. If investing in existing crypto coins on the market, first know the advantages and disadvantages of the coin and tailored to your needs.

I think if you want to invest in crypto or what in the world you're investing you should learn how to it and read it carefully. knowledge is the power of success.

In principle, this person is absolutely right, the fact is that with the growth of popularity, not only traders and investors earn their currency, but scammers aspire to snatch their piece of pie, in order not to fall into their trap, you only need one thing - not investing in something or anything you do not know!!
90% of crypto investors invest their money on recommendations from different channels and at the same time think that they manage their money themselves)).

Yes, i totally agree with that. A lot of people who entered the crypto industry didnt even understand a bit about Bitcoin, they only cares about the profit. Greediness is what bad people take advantage of. This is why people should understand and think about what they're getting into before they invest their money.

Definitely right, knowing the basic of crypto currency is very important in order to know the exact way on how to deal with it. There are ways on how to do the process,  it is important to know its background and how it will be use because investing is risky.

fraud will always exist in any business that involves money and profit. Scam offers very high profits with a fast time because the popularity of bitcoin is very high many people who do not understand and new in the business bitcoin become victims of fraud. preferably, for beginners to analyze information about the projects offered in order to avoid fraud.

Ofcourse before you invest and entrust your money with the ICO, you should make sure that they are really trustworthy and ofcourse you should already know the background of that ICO that you are going to invest.

Possibility and popularity are the most important thing for me when I want to invest in crypto. However crypto is the most risky place of investment but when choosing a good crypto will be very profitable.

yes I have someone with a scam in phillippines. they do not return money and they consider people when investing in bitcoins it will return to them more.
but they do not know the bitcoin is a long-term investment that you wait for it to increase the amount before you pay.
so it is important for Filipinos who have proven in bitcoin to get wet before they get out of money

the most basic is to learn prices and articles about the world of cryptocurency, and most importantly how to find the price down if you want to buy, and put up a high price if it will sell.

yes, before investing investors should be careful in choosing ICO projects, besides investors should read all the rules and information about ICO projects so investors will know that the project is not a scam.

in my opinion, for campaign managers to be cautious in accepting ICO projects, if there is a scam ICO project then campaign managers also get punishment as exposed to red trust or their account is blocked.
I suggest penalties for campaign managers so they do not accept scam projects and investors can be safe in investing.

Of course, many of the current ICO projects are scams.
This requires people to judge themselves or collect some information.
If you are a newcomer to a cryptocurrency, it is not advisable to go to ICO. Instead, try to buy some existing coins to try.

you need to make sure you know the difference between airdrop and ICO, when you have to invest your money from the begging  or get something initially for free and see how it works

Learn the basics is the first thing to do before entering to something you hardly know. Cryptocurrency for instance like bitcoin, if it is the first time you hear this,try to read more articles about it or you may ask somebody who knows it, how it works and how to earn or invest in it.Same thing with other altcoins, to distinguish whether the coin is good for investment or not, try to look over what are the ICO projects,will it be for good or not at all.

Search the internet what bitcoin and crypto learn about it all because crypto jas a very high risk of learning to seniors before you really invest your money lost or not your money depends on your analysis

Before investing such huge money, take a brief research about scams or scams that happened recently before investing huge money.

We must learn about how to invest right so as not to choose a project that is running or a scam project. Investing in crypto must meet the requirements stated on the project in accordance with the applicable provisions. See the ICO rating to make sure it looks good project.

If you want to invest in bitcoin or in any cryptocurrency the first thing that you need to do is to have information of knowledge about it so that you can't lose your capital or money. In addition to that, I agree there are many cryptocurrency and some are legit or scam so that you must become wisely before you invest and you must invest in trusted digital currency.

There are so many cryptocurrencies in the world and they are of two types legit and scam digital currency. So it's important you know what crypto is before you can invest, the crypto world grow alone with technology so it's a thing you keep learning everyday. Know that the community is for high risk takers and don't invest what you can't afford to lose always do research very well before you start investing on any project.

In entering in any investment or money related such as crypto you should be familiar on it to avoid such scam. Look for some information such as the best strategy in investing, what is the best coin to buy, and please keep in mind the in investing there has a 50/50 chance that you will get your investment with interest so risky.

I think With the cryptomarket getting a lot of attention because of the advantages it offers, many scammers use this term to lure people who are looking for the same opportunities but do not know how to get started. If only someone would take the time to read before spending money on it, I do not think anyone would fall for such a ruse.
It's true to see that the recent sculpture associated with crypto investment is the boss of NewG fraud and other similar ponzi schemes.

But if they analyzed and learned more about the history of bitcoin they don't experienced being a victim of the said scam, Because is legit it depends upon the people how they handle it.

Besides the scams, a lot of companies have also been riding on the hype around blockchain technology and holding initial coin offerings or ICOs to fund businesses that were not practical or unsustainable.  ICOs have recently become hugely popular among start-ups to raise funds online, offering self-created digital "tokens" or coins to any willing buyer.

When investing in a blockchain company, investing in an ICO, it's important to look at the white paper carefully. To evaluate exactly what this company is trying to do, what the technology they're doing is trying to achieve, and then evaluate for yourself whether or not you think this technology will really really help the business in order for us to make a good investment.

I have seen some people sold their investment so early or hastily because their incomes are dependent on cryptocurrencies.

Before investing in cryptocurrency, be realistic. You should know what type of crypto coins you are going to invest. Do some reserch. And double check if that investment is legit, because many scammers are wandering in the world of crypto. Be responsible because investing in crypto comes with a higher risk.

My opinion is that if you do not understand anything in cryptocurrencies, it's better not to engage in this kind of investment at all.

Now there are many services that help to understand cryptocurrency market. But this takes time and effort

This is the main reason why a lot of Filipinos I know don't believe in bitcoin at all. They don't even bat an eye and show interest because it is only known as 'scam'. As a bitcoin user, we should observe first and check the background where you will be investing.

There's no denial that investing in bitcoin is really risky becuase in a first place this is somewhat new to us, so before doing such kind of risky action make sure you know all precautionary measure so that you will not end up.

Probably there's a lot you need to know about before investing in crypto because there's got to bear all the risk if you invest in crypto so you have to bear all the risks that exist in crypto

Yeah I totally agree with you that we must observe first when we want to invest in crypto, we should be able to identify the various elements of the crypto investment, developer, team and mission/vision of the project it was plainly, without any lies.

Overall, this is very true. Many people who have no concept of that what are the crypto currencies, are rushed to invest when they saw the big jump in the BTC price to $ 20K in December. They decided they could make a lot of money without any effort or knowledge. For this reason, many attempted of scam are appeared, some of which have been successful.  :-\

For me, you need to know before investing in cryptocurrency is to know if your country or state has an exchanger of what crypto you choose and after that create your wallet and make sure that you follow their security purposes. The second thing is to have to know about cryptocurrency and what crypto you want. We all know that you need to know that essential before investing right because spending some money on a thing that you don’t even know is a stupid move. After gathering ideas and researching check again if that crypto you choose it accepted to your country and you have an exchanger and if you have good luck in investing on cryptocurrency hope that you become successful.  :)

You need to first know the basic of crypto currency and the the crypto currency market. For this you need to go through the child boards section of this forum to gather some knowledge. Post that you start with a small amount in trading with some top listed crypto currencies because the top listed crypto currency will be listed on most of the exchanges.

so that all the efforts that I do generate profit of course must first learn to really understand the trick to invest in crypto. for example in investment for investment we must really choose the right time to buy or sell

The only thing you need to know is "you should tolerate risk". People are wanting to earn money in short time. This is a wrong method. You should be patient.

I think people should get to know the things they're about to go into before they do something risky albeit stupid. Cryptocurrency investments are not "get rich quick" schemes. Unlike before. The rules of the game have changed and people investing into it should know that by now.

If the investment in ICO then need to be analyzed in advance the legitimate ICO or ICO scam. If investing in existing crypto coins on the market, first know the advantages and disadvantages of the coin and tailored to your needs.

A 39,000% increase rate is so hilarious. I think this is just a scam and those people behind it are just using the name of bitcoin for self interest. We should be aware and observant because using other's name/label/identity to fool other people is a page from a child playbook. Before jumping to the cliff, always make sure you will jump in the right one and not just in some mislabeled holes.

 That is in reality obvious seeing that the ongoing busts identified with crypto speculations are managers of the NewG tricks and other comparative ponzi plans. The general population who fell casualty in these tricks are the ones who were sufficiently lethargic to indiscriminately put stock in expansive entireties of cash on other individuals without doing record verifications and checking sources. A great many people these days are searching for brisk and income sans work, which, at most circumstances lead them towards something that will take their cash away as opposed to benefitting. With the cryptomarket picking up a considerable measure of consideration because of the additions it offers, numerous con artists utilize the term keeping in mind the end goal to draw individuals who search for a similar opportunity yet don't know how to begin. On the off chance that exclusive individuals would set aside opportunity to peruse before burning through cash on such, I don't think there would be individuals who'd fall for such traps.

1. Know more about what is Bitcoin and cryptocurrency.
2. Log into the correct Bitcoin / Cryptocurrency forum. Not MLM or Hype
3. Learn the volatility that exists in cryptocurrency
4. Prepare unused money, completely unused
5. Prepare to lose money
6. Do not believe the words of others, always find out for yourself

Rich or getting a lot of profit from an investment does require extra effort or effort. Diligent reading, curiosity, always finding out the truth is the main weapon. If we want to do rich, we must be trying maximally, not because tempted big profit as offered hype or MLM. Hype and MLM itself is a scam.

It is naive for any person to think that he can invest in something and make money without having an idea what this is. This applies not only to the crypto market but to everything related to investment in the world.  ???

There are a lot ''false'' promises in the crypto world.
So, don't believe everything you read.
Do your own research, study and if you feel confident, invest.
If you are not sure what are you doing than please don't do it.

It takes readiness and willingness before investing in cryptocurrency. It's important to improve knowledge, study about the nature of cryptocurrency, understanding market growth or movements, the risks factors, factors affecting the price, reading the chart, roadmap, doing own research, and to continue learning and exploring new investment ideas and experimenting for best strategy that works effectively for you, like diversifying or more. It isn't always about how much money you make, it's also about how much you keep. Keeping losses to a minimum level allows your assets the potential to grow over time.

Yo butress more on ur point, It's not really new information either. While it really depends on how you define 'scam' exactly, there have been countless altcoin related scamming going on for at least 5 years now. It's just now that it's exploded with this whole 'ICO' thing. But before that there has been all kinds of shady characters creating, pumping, and dumping altcoins. This forum has all that history written down and stored for the ages too. It's been a constant thing in this community.

Knowledge is important for any kind of investment. Before investing on crypto you have to research about crypto. What is crypto and how it works. What are the advantages what are the disadvantages. How to invest. Everyone should know these factors.

I believe that if you do not understand this, then be kind to study everything and only then invest. If you can't and you don't know, then go work in the other direction. If you know a good friend who has bitcoins, let him take control of your money and dispose of them. The only way I can see. Because there are enough scammers everywhere.

First of all you have to know about crypto,and before investing you should be clear about investment process and the basic bitcoin knowledge.

Crypto is not an easy area to venture into, needs keenness and precision, there is basically no room for mistake, you need to know the crypto you are investing in well, inside out, know everything from it's products relevance to the project roadmap, if the project is solid then you are good to go

I also see the many scam ICO projects at the moment. I am always cautious in investing because I do not want to be harmed. before investing I always see people who invest in ICO projects, besides I also see the purpose of the project is made and I also always see the white paper that I will make a guide because there is a lot of information about the ICO project in the white paper.

Most people who are scammed don't get the time to read about what they need to know about cryptocurrencies. Others are also greedy and want excessive profit in a short time because they might have heard that crypto pays in a short time.
