No matter how promising a project might look, especially if they are new projects just look them as if they have nothing to offer and invest only what you can afford to lose. Do not keep your eggs in one basket, do not fall in love with a single coin, no matter how good they are always keep digging, many more good gems won't hurt than relying on a single gem 💍. Be smart  

This is the main rules of trading and investment in real life or Online.few people are greedy that’s why they put all of there money in one place and if that’s turned to scam they cry and blame.but wise people always put there money in different place or different coins.         

This have been said many times but since we always see newbies every time to time it's good to share this information over again, newbies should try as much possible to put learning first before investing, seek answers and you will find unexpected answers, always remember that you meet some people on here who've been around before you, they have different experience to share

Some pretty good advice to give, the way the market volatility fluctuates, you could really end up losing it all, especially if one isn't careful enough. When you diversify your portfolio you have a better chance of coming out on top, but it involves a lot more work. You have to constantly check the market in order to make sure that your coins are doing well!

I also say that term of not keeping all eggs into one basket but in bitcoin, this is the opposite way. If you want to minimize your losses but to maximize profit, putting to bitcoin-only can be your choice. I have invested in other altcoins because it's my choice to diversify.

Bitcoin is a gem and if you have invested only into it, you have the best gem of them all. But as time passes by, you want to explore into altcoins and that's the start of knowing others of it through the researching.

It's because they are not thinking before making decision, they don't even bother doing research regarding that specific project that is why most of them end up losing their own money for thing. It's the reason why you have to consider a lot of things, you can't just put your money without thinking the possible outcomes. They should realize that being greedy will never turn out good and you have to expect that losing is part of investing, it depends on you if you are going to learn from your own mistakes and turn that experience into a lesson that can guide you. It doesn't matter as long as you know how to handle your own investment and you already determine that it's a profitable investment but you have to remind yourself that you can't assure the possible things that my happen so if you are into it then be careful and attentive. Also, you can't blame anyone or anything because of your own stupidity just accept your mistakes, it's your choice at the first place so you must suffer the consequences.

Already aware of this one so this advice are really for beginners. It is really indeed a better move. Investing in different altcoins that you see will do or is doing good is much advisable than investing everything in one coin. Because we're avoiding losses in one go. As long as you're not only investing in a single coin, that's already good. You just have to know where you should invest more than the other one.

Ah "GEMS", this is how some investors usually describe those low market cap coins with "potential". Then 2018 came, these same people who were very optimistic before started calling these gems as shitcoins  :D

Here's my quick warning, you do not have to distribute your eggs into different coins or tokens. You don't have to follow tips or advice that works on other type of investments because they may not be applicable to a young market like crypto. We've already seen how many people got rekt from the "altcoin rush".

Yes ofcourse i know this also because if we relying only in one altcoins and invest all of our money the possibility is high that all our investment will lose if this coins is going to dump.  So invest our money in deffirent investment so that when some of our investment lose or become scam not all our investment will dump. 

I've appreciate this post in which it is true that no matter what happens when the project was a new project don't trust so fast because no matter what happens you don't know what are the background of this project and we also don't know if this project is reliable or not. Even though that the whitepaper of the project was good enough to convince you that this is a legit project, then probably think about it and think those people who are scam just because the project looks real.
Just like what people says, go and find more so that when you came back you will have so much, meaning be smart on having many connections or transactions so that you will not just stick into one, there are tons of different kinds of gem in the world don't look for the one and only diamond because other gems have their true value also.

You gave a plausible warning. In fact, I've always heard that it's unwise to keep all your eggs on a basket. It's a sound investment principle to diversify and don't depend on only one single source of income. Its also a good idea to only invest what you're willing to loose., the cryptocurrency space is highly volatile and there's no promise or assurance on any project or coin.

it doesn't matter even though one is btc but it is very risky to place only one altcoin, maybe everyone thinks like you and I will do it too. I think it's true that it will be much safer if we store it in several coins so that if there is a loss in one coin, we still have other coins

That's how crypto investors should be, don't rely on just one projects more over today projects are so many and people are jumping to each different project like flash so keeping investment too long in one project is not the best way to do with current crypto condition

That's an aggressive advice and associated to reality of life. Every person in this modern days, got so many ambitions to tackle and because of that reasons they likely failing in every circumstances. Without knowing that they're about to fall on the booby traps of scammers. I am pertaining to describe here was the ponzi scheme used by scammers on different investments aiming fiat cash investments, which was using any forms of products or physical business operations. Same thing with cryptocurrency investments, this idealism was copied towards physical money and then diverted into a business which was actually a ponzi scheme pattern.

With so many shitcoins dying now, we must be smart about our money to avoid irreparable damage.
Do not be easily influenced by a momentary pump that can be a trap to enter the deepest holes.

Diversifying should be do if we plant to do trading even sometimes, so we have a backup coin that we can use when we trade. Holding 1 btc is good as long as we always get updated and will set till what amount we can lose or win. Sometimes I just want to forget I ha e BTC and will just set remainder maybe but then we need to monitor to stop loss if it's been too far from our goals.

I have seen and read this advice so many times in this forum and on so many articles I've read and it's always timely and true and will not go out of truthfulness, especially at this point in time where so many scam projects are just around us, waiting to victimize those who refuse to learn.

This is the first rules I learned when trying to learn how to invest. And I am sure this rule will stay as long as investing is a thing.

Good advice. Never stop searching for opportunities because you will never know when you will find that one that will change you financially. And even if you already have one, there will always be something new out there that has greater potential.

Also, profits are made when you buy but it is realized when you cash out. So learn when to cash out.

Smart people move along with smart mind. Business minded people prepare themselves for every ups and downs. So they know better what to dig, where to dig and how to dig 

Variety is something good in crypto. Especially in a highly volatile market where prices of coin can rise and fall abruptly. It is always a good thing to have choices when one of your assets fails you still have another to carry you around and continue your trading or longterm investments. So it is indeed really important to research and check out other projects and cryptos that have actual usage, a great team running it, and stable and long-term roadmap.

actually if we look at various new projects, they are likely to end up the same as the first even worse. new ideas and innovations that look like they are making new tokens by using investors to help, then they take their own proift. now we must be more thorough before investing because there are so many interesting projects. I would suggest to just enter our assets into bitcoin, etherum or other top altcoin.

The bearish trend makes every project seem undeveloped, but actually they are doing various important things, especially coins that are already familiar in investor analysis. You write about asset diversification, this is what many investors think if they have more than enough capital to see the potential of other coins, but for new coins, as smart as you dig good information, you still have to realize that many of these coins still have a hard challenge to out of atl zone.

Yes. It's wise not to put more than 1/20th of your total funds on a single new project and you should at least hold 50% of your coins on tested and proved cryptocurrencies that are here for long. How good and promising may the project looks and how much you may believe in that, don't jump in with everything you have. Putting all your eggs in one basket can make you go vegetarian.

it depends on the project that is trusted. sometimes some investors really like new projects compared to projects that are already successful in the market. I also like new projects, but it's very difficult to judge. now maybe everyone is indeed focused on the old projects that have developed in the market. because it is safe and very minimal risk of scam.

look as if they nothing to offer ? if that is what you put on your mind then how can you be motivated to invest  ?

people invest because they see something on that investment asset but we should be smart and wise to  check whats in thier inside  and not just thier outside appearance  . and like what you said its also a good idea to invest on more than one asset  . spreading capital can make us loose less as long as we picked up the right assets  .

The term do not put all eggs in one basket is indeed an investment term for type of altcoin. Because here atcoin there are many choices and there are also many good ones, so altcoin investment in some coins can be an alternative to minimize losses on a coin.
As with bitcoin, investing only in bitcoin is a good idea, when altcoin has not experienced progress in prices.

It's good that your OP has warned. so don't always focus on one point, there are still plenty out there you can get the maximum profit. Maybe someone's perception at this time prefers to focus on just one reference, and actually the mindset like this needs to be changed. If I myself focus for the first time on one thing first, but if possible have mastered it I tend to try something new. This time, I'm a little to forget about a new project, because I hate nonsense. It's better to focus on one thing if you believe in your potential in the future.

Really must be careful when pick an ICO project or maybe to be safer just trade a coin in market. Because although profit that we possibly is less than if we make inevstment in ICO. There are no guarantee if the project will have good price when listed in market.

we do have to be careful when investing in ICOs and also investing elsewhere, because when investing we spend funds and these funds must be carefully guarded. knowledge and also experience are important when investing, otherwise the potential to lose funds will be large

Lol, this makes no sense at all. You are telling us to think about project and invest assuming they have "nothing to offer"? Then why would we even be thinking about investing on those projects if we keep on thinking that they have nothing to give us in return. This is a really stupid and the exact opposite way to think when you are considering about investing on projects. The best way to do is to see "what they have to offer" and how realistic their offers are.

For me I wanted to focus all the attention towards bitcoin for the main time. Altcoins is good while Bitcoin was on the top price, but while it's not yet taking a good productivity just let it grow all alone and gain a better profit. Research is helpful, just be patience in doing it together with the hardworks that you have in reaching your goals.

I chose to take both. I invest in bitcoin and wait for the pump moment. and I also fill my time with altcoin trading daily. I don't take risks by storing altcoins for a long time. like you who focus and believe more in the moment of bitcoin than altcoin. because the situation that supports altcoin goes up is that bitcoin is growing healthier.

Why do people keep writing the same thing. In my opinion, the forum is already full of warnings of this kind. "Invest smartly," "Not every project is successful." "Diversify."
It’s excusable when newcomers write it, but when a fairly experienced user retells these rules, it makes me laugh.

you are absolutely right. this market is now so risky that you should not trust a single project at 100 percent. most likely your expectations will die in one day when you invest a lot of money in one project and that is why it has already been said many times about diversification in this market. If you will use the basic principles you will succeed

in investing we have to divide the funds we have, don't put the funds in just one project because the possibility of risk will be higher. we must divide up some funds and do research on each investment made, and see many more things to compare for each project.

Of course if there is a new project introduce by some other team. As a good investor, your role is to invest and trust on their project but bear in mind that being an investor is very danger because your money is at risk if you invest it so be prepared what ever happens and make sure that you have your assurance or they have guarantee you that their project can give you a lot of money. As an investor keep in mind also that you have to be smarter than them and you have to be an observant if their projects shows negative results right from the start then dont trust anymore on that project to avoid loosing or wasting your money in a nonsense project.

Most people already know what you're talking about, but we live in a diverse world, and a hundred people learning about a problem will have a hundred different ways of thinking and acting. So there will always be people who ignore basic principles and make mistakes.

Yes, you are right, but all choices have risks, we don't know that the gem will be more valuable in the future or not at all, there are always choices for investment and always be vigilant in choosing something promising.
New crypto projects keep coming and offer some lucrative sales bonuses, but with the experience you have, you will know which projects are good and which are not.

yes this strategy is also widely used by famous investors such as warren buffet, if you experience a loss in one project then the other will replace it.
but sometimes there are those who deliberately put on a project and believe it will provide profits, this is like gambling where high risk and also high yields.
depends on which side you get luck or bad luck.

Only bitcoin is worth putting all your money on but when it comes altcoins they are more risky, it's better to split up the money into different altcoins that are well rated, you can't predict which altcoins will be huge in future

Good advice for investment it is best to do the distribution especially if it has a large investment value, for example more than 1000 $ and focus on one coin is very difficult at this time because too many coins have fallen at the beginning.

Great tips. I agree with you.

You are right, even if see a good and very promising project this will not guarantee nothing, if i will put anything that will be only on bitcoin and not on any other crypto, but still is a high risk and no one know when a profit will come.

In fact, Your message refers to investors,but I can assure You that such instructions for all investors are laws that can not be violated.

basic rules for investors should be useful but most of us maybe have forgotten and are still falling into shit tokens ,that's why need to be reminded like your thread well I think the most important from basic is dare to take risks

I like to diversify, last year went all-in in a project and it nearly cost me my health from the stress of it. Now I diversify and mainly collect Bitcoin with a few other good coins and growing a varied diverse portfolio in safe projects. I do have my eye on a few low cap and diminishing supply coins that get bought back by the owners in order to make them rarer, but yes diversification is the key and we must never forget this. Don't listen to fud or fomo in telegram groups, always do your own research as well first and foremost.

Been said so many times but still relevant at all times when investing especially in Cryptocurrency but the most important advice of all is to always invest what you can afford to lose because honestly, there is no such thing as a safe investment, it may be up or good today but it's not the next day.

You're absolutely spot on.

Some projects which make absurd claims are the ones that will get you in the end, that's just the way it goes.

Also, even if a project is developed by well known developers or whatnot, you still have to be extremely wary. Sometimes well known developers that create new projects instead of maintaining their old ones is a sign of the fact that they're seeking more profit for themselves as opposed to creating the project for the benefit of users/investors.

Right, specially at this market conditions, one must be very careful on investing our hard earn money because we really don't know if the project is real or it might pull an exit scam. Diversification is one key as well, to not get burned easily in crypto.

Others put more in bitcoin and the rest altcoins and ICO/IEO projects. It's 2020, so I do hope that everything will be fine and that the market should soon bounce back from the two year long bear market so that everyone can make money.

All cryptocurrencies are high risk investments. However, I do believe that Bitcoin and a few altcoins are less risky than they used to be. Bitcoin especially has been around long enough and has been tested enough that I think it is becoming more likely that it will be around for a long time and hold value.

actually bitcoin also has risk even though it's not high enough like altcoin, because the price of bitcoin goes down and up so if people buy at bitcoin prices are going up and they are late selling it surely they will lose so all of that has risk

This method can be use to reduce lost and save asset in sideways trend, very good option for safety. We only need martiangle money management to support this because if market go more deeper we can buy back again. I agree with this method, minimize risk by split it into several coin. Every activity in crypto market need safety and this is the real step. Be wise with your money, focus in safety and profit will be yours.

I can put a single investment but maybe only for those gems such as btc, eth and xrp. I know a lot of projects are always introduced but question is, they are capable of providing what is already provided? If you would noticed lots of new project are just imitation and has same concept with the previous projects its like remodeling the first one with another name so where is the improvement there?

I couldn't agree more on this one. The thing is, no matter how good, promising, one project might look like, it doens't mean that the result will also be good as well.
I have seen a few past projects that seemed quite good at that time, only to be failed or scammed. And isn't it a common thing to invest only the amount you can afford to lose, tough? Well, sadly so many newbies or even self-claimed experts still don't give a damn about how much money they spent.

Having a few other coins in my bag is my way of doing it. Since not every coin has a good market movements.

This is so true than it was three years ago, in 2017 people will invest in anything that are Bitcoin clone or something new in the community, even if it is unrealistic, but we are have moved on and we are more realistic and always doubler check on what we are investing, gone are the pump and dump coins that offers nothing.

Yes, it's wise to do that but in the beginning is easy to the the opposite and lose money, and it's fine, it's the part of the learning of investments
With time the person will be wiser and look only in real and good projects

yea
just keep investing a little amount every month
dont rush to invets everything in 1 shot because you dont want to miss out
read books about investing, to learn from others mistakes
there are plenty good ones
such as "a random walk down wallstreet"
a great book

Yes, very good.
That is how it should be.

Dig as long as you can and find out even just a glimpse of a scam.
When you find it then stop for a second, realize what could happen if you bought it first.
You saved yourself from all the stress that will happen in the long run.

Rushing everything will not get you anywhere.

I guess I have learned that lesson a long time ago. Honestly, I am not looking for any project anymore to invest. Sometimes even if it is promising, you have no assurance when will your money get back or if it will ever get back. Though there are still great projects out there, but I just stick to bitcoin and eth for now. At least I am sure that they are in the market and will not be gone anytime soon.

Same old same old advice. They never die. You know why? Because people still need them. They are still doing the opposite.

It is better to treat all projects, especially new ones, scam or failure until proven otherwise. And when they prove to be legit and their prices rise above, sell yours, it will not probably last.

Lastly, keep only your Bitcoin and top altcoins.

Yes you are right. In this industry we need to be smart. Because like you said even the project's offer is too good it is always risky. All we know that number of scam and fraud cases are continue to increase so you might be more smart to avoid that kind of hassle. Always have a research before dealing in any project or activity.

Doing you in depth studies and proper understanding with new projects is very needed in order to avoid or lessen the potential risk for your investment. Not just because the project is offering something that realistic or achievable it doesn't count to relied your trust right away. Always find time to do your
own research and check if all the qualifications according to your own analysis are being filled up. Never to rush you always have the right time if you
observe and research properly.

I'm sure by now investors know all of these, investing in Cryptocurrency requires a lot of studies not only on how to create your wallet, protecting your coins and properly managing it, to avoid hacking and of course picking and getting the right coin to invest, if you don't know much about this, better start learning first.

This is one of the reasons why some investors are stuck with a coin. I also had been left out by a project before which I think has a good potential and had lost a lot of opportunities investing in other coins because of it. The project was good and has a working product, active team, development and a sold out crowdfunding stage, but the price of the coin kept on dipping until it almost cost really cheap compared to it's ICO price. Take what you can while you can and move on to a other project.

Spending and betting all on a single coin is a big mistake I don't wanna make, what happens if the coin failed? End of story, for better or higher chances of winning it's always good to have different coins in your portfolio

That is how the crypto works, you need to be wise in order to gain a good amount of profit or else you will just lost your hard earned money either you can afford to lost it or not.

There are plenty of promising projects therefore if you have good amount of spare money, separate it to at least 5 currencies that you like and make sure that they rank higher so you can lessen the risk of your investment. Don't give too much effort into a single currencies as even bitcoin also drops it's price what more the other currencies. But right now, it's a good time to buy and hold for a long term as the market will surely recover again.

That's right, don't just invest in one coin or you can say don't just depend on your income from only one coin because when the coin falls and the price keeps decreasing then all you get is loss. Sometimes we also have to have a strategy to determine which coins we will buy and invest in several coins can also help us to avoid loss if one of our coins has decreased so we still have reserves of other coins that can provide us with income or arguably the can cover losses from our other investments.

That's the basic concept of any business and investments but at the same time we need to consider the fact that too many cooks spoils the food, I have seen people investing in numerous altcoins and ending up losing on all of them. We need to look at all the possibilities but at the same time we need filter our own choice rather than investing in too many projects by limiting it to few.

That is normal to see many projects that keep saying promises but they failing to meet it. As time passing by, the success rate of the projects nowadays are keep decreasing because investors are now losing their trust. We should be aware that even the team behind the project promised, it may not happen and the possibility that it can become true is only small so we should be careful.

Everyone is already stored it in their brain, although there is still victimized on this scheme's but we are sure that the percentage of victims will not rise because of all users who reminded the new users. but the scam developers are not resting to make new scheme's they are improving too so still be vigilant be wise enough to not being fall as a prey of this humbug.

Dont invest in one basket, only invest you can afford to lose, dont fall in love with single coin, are suitable for any market situation
it is needed for risk management that we should do in any investment
especially in high risk investment like cryptocurrency, mate.

We can't really make everyone to stop investing in new project nowadays because they are really aiming and dreaming to become rich one day with the help of cryptocurrencies, that is why they keep taking the risk even they are not really sure about it. We should be guiding every crypto users that they should be aware in scams, so that scam projects would stop.

True, if someone wants to get a lot of profit, then he must have some good coins, not just one coin, because it will be very disappointed if the coins he has failed to develop.

Taking risks in one coin/token will either give you a chance to earn a good amount of profit (if the project is really that good) or lose your money. Putting all your money in an investment without doing research about that project may result in losing all your money that's why it is really advisable to do your research first before investing in anything or just to be safe, divide your money and invest in other projects to have more chances of winning other than losing all your money in a single investment. And don't forget the number rule in investing, only invest money that you can afford to lose.

Haha yeah, now it's not like 2017 then where you will get more profit when taking ICO. I prefer to call the failed project a scammer who is smart in disguise, the fact is that we cannot recognize which scammer is not. They were two-faced who only sought investors' money and then seemed to run the project in white paper, but that was merely fabricated.

From what I experienced, it's better to use partner analysis because when the project partners with a large company means they have seriousness, at least this is better dude.

This happens in me I'm stuck in a single coin at first it is profitable and aiming to earn profit more but ended up I left out and earn nothing. A learn lesson that we should never invest in one coin only since the price cannot maintain the value in the market. Also never invest that we can afford to lose a reminder to many who invest in crypto.

That's why you can call it taking risk but before that you need to earn a lot of information for at least you are much wise than others. Don't stay at single coin if you don't and also others don't believe on it because the important in cryptocurrency is the demand.

gambling should not be greedy like that, it's better to do gambling with a gradual bet and do not use all the gambling capital because it will be high risk and you can immediately lose when you use all your capital, so it's better to play it safe little by little.

wise in taking place to invest is important, we must be careful in the selection of coins and must be able to see the potential and also the market demand that must be good too. because the market is full of risks for people who only make bets in it without understanding the situation.

There's many projects here that good to invest and all we need to do is find and study this carefully,  and ofcourse like you said buy only coins that have a good project idea and real use case.  Because when the time that bitcoin start to bullish all useless coins will be die and only survivors are reputable coins only.  

the easy way is to visit Coinmarketcap or Coingecko, you can see coins from the best projects there, maybe those in position 1-200 coinmarketcap or coingecko in my opinion are worth buying

There is no safe investment and everything has its own risk. Sometimes we have to think of many ways to anticipate if the coins we have do not match what we expect and we must be prepared with all the risks that exist, and to invest into a few coins is the right thing to do but don't forget to observe a few coins that do you think has the potential because not all coins have the potential and have the opportunity to provide benefits.

Yes, every investment have a risk. But to minimize that risk it is all depends on ourself. Like when to pick an ICO, it means we rely our investment in developer and there are no guarantee that our investment will be in profit. But in trading, as long we know basic and risk about it, we can do something when coin that we bought dumped.

This is why we must continue to grow, not stagnate in terms of mindset and predict what we have to prepare to survive here. Indeed it would be nice if we have many coin options, not just focusing on one coin, but it needs to be known for beginners indeed we should introduce one by one coin so that he understands and is ready with various kinds of coins and calculations.

We should get rid of focusing our attention in a single coin especially if there's no assurance of gaining a good profit out of it. We should choose more than one which has huge potential so we'll never regret anything in the end. Choosing a coins has a big advantage so we should think twice before we invest.

I do agree, after our past experience we should make it as a piece of knowledge to grow and survive against this cruel world. Aside from having many coin options, we should still or at least analyze them one by one.

This should be a no-brainer ideology in the crypto world. Always spread your investment on different potentially-successful projects. This is because no project gives any guarantee.
The love-at-first-sight on projects could just turn to doom-at-last-sight
Most projects in crypto are more of a test-run. No guarantees of a market.

If people just pay attention to everything from the tiniest and simplest details before putting money into any altcoins and projects there won't be anything to be worried about. Its their own ignorance and negligence to watch out for possible risks which takes them to harm and loosing their money. Plus their greed to earn high easily that leads them into making impulsive decision.

The same advice which has been told million times by different forum members.

Investments are risky.

Investing on new coins are most risky.

Indeed. That was really an awesome words of wisdom we should all need to take. It is really indeed that we must exert or invest what we can afford to loose and do not think about that we can gain more if we exert or give more. Better be wise on making decisions and do not fall for promising words because still actions speak louder than words. Better be the result or outcome talk and not just the words being stated in the project. Once proven true, you can try another set of amount you can just afford to loose and do not put all the way in one blow. We must no focus into targeting or aiming into one spot. There are lots of potential cryptocurrency out in the market that is still waiting to be discovered. Better be spreading your money into many assets to provide more chances of earning profit from those. It is still best to assure that if ever that investment failed to reach your expectation, still you won't regret it at least you have tried and learned something added by the fact that you won't take it too hard because what you have given is only what you can afford to loose.

It should be like that to be more grateful to get some of our money. But we also have to take care of the time spent to follow an event such as investment. Take it all it can and it's good if it's free. But if there is ugly leave it, do not be forced to make your case messier. I fell in love with the project and assumed that is an energy coin.

It is getting harder and harder to find those gems. Even if the project seems nice, it can easily go scam after several months of work. Invest only 5-10 percent of your funds in a new project and be really careful by selecting them.

Is there a hopeless project? Some projects make huge advertisements. Sometimes I believe they're going into space. Bitcoin has been on the market for 10 years and is there a project that will surpass it? Don't just look at price performance. See also technology.

Promising projects always good to invest. In this bear the best advice is "how much you want to invest that you can afford to lose. Single coin is also good if short time for Binance IEO. As probability and coinmarketcap, one coin has high risk when in coinmarketcap has 3290 currencies.

Yes there are many of them a hopeless project in the market right now. Even they make a good advertisement it will never add anything in the project  unless the project have unique use and can be use by many people in different countries like what  is in BTC.

Is this really a question?

Bitcoin is one of good coin in this space, some are good too. But most of coin/token is just a shit, that's why OP should make quick warning
remember that total crypto is thousand here, just small of them is good. the others is just scam/fake/copycat/trolls/etc

It's all depends from how you conceptualized the potentials and how willing you are to take the full risk. It's always been said that from this venue of investment you should always use the amount of investment that you can afford to lose and forget. With such mentalities you'll be able to afford how
things will proceed, big risk big outcome, small risk lessen the chance of losing everything.

yes, that principle is what we need to know and we do because crypto investment does have calculations that must be mature. but sometimes what is unfortunate is that many people who invest only follow the advice of others not based on his analysis. and when he feels a loss he is like being cheated by people.

I think most of us had already learned this lesson especially those who are around during those 2017 bull run/crypto craze.  Lots of ICO projects promises a lot but at the end they turned out to be worthless to scam project.  It is indeed important to dig in especially the skills of the developer.  And as of diversification, we should be careful about it and make sure that we can handle several investment well.

investment diversification really needs to be done so that we can get more profits. in investing in cryptocurrency the main coin we have to have is the next bitcoin if we have more money buying some of the top altcoins is the right choice. because sometimes when bitcoin goes up, altcoin goes up more than bitcoin. so it doesn't hurt if we have several types of coins. the important thing is that we choose coins that have the potential to develop in the future. and I chose the top 10 CMC coins.

Not storing all the eggs in one basket is a term that we often hear about how we do not get a loss if we only invest in a coin and put investments in several coins will be able to minimize the risk of loss obtained. But for me personally does not mean that the number of coins held or purchased will be able to give us advantages and minimize our losses, I personally prefer bitcoin to invest now and for some other altcoins I still observe one by one about which coins have more opportunities big compared to the others.

Personally i want most support trading in daily life process profit in here crypto even if you have enough skills then you can gain here. I see some ICO project very promising want run but no have lot of smart investors then how they will do? Number of death project still here so be careful you need choice right time for right invest movement.

We must keep in mind this simple rule when investing but sadly some of us cant follow and blindly invest without even thinking.

Greedy to earn huge is the reason why some of us are falling to scam projects plus not having enough knowledge and lazy to conduct a research.

You can explore anytime you want if you think that you have sufficient bitcoin on your portfolio. But as I've said, as time passes by and you have spare money to invest and you are okay with it whether it lose or get into profit, as long as you get to learn more about it, it's fine.

I'm contented with the amount of bitcoin that I have right now but as usual, I want more and while waiting for it to add in quantity I just can't stop looking to the movement of altcoins and I understand that many of them can easily burn my money. As long as you know what you do and you're okay in choosing altcoins, invest what you are okay to lose.

yes that is correct, investors should invest their money wisely, dont fall to those sweet promises, because now a days people only look the price of coin/token in short term without knowing the real value of the project and I want to suggest to invest to those already existing coins/token like bitcoin, ethereum, litecoin, eos and many more. always remember buy low sell high dont become too greedy.

I know how hard to imagine when you trusted a certain project but in the end, you'll end up nothing and full of regrets. That was embarrassing but it made us learn that crypto can't just play easily, it all comes in a rough way. Likewise, it also helps us to become strong and be careful in the next round so this kind of disappointment and mistake will never happen again.

I am always in favor of portfolio diversification but lately I have been pouring more and more investments into bitcoin because at the moment it is the strongest cryptocurrency for me. At the moment investing in crypto projects is like poking a finger at the sky.

yes for sure. This is the principle of effective investment and is also one of the most effective capital management methods when making financial investments. You know, our crypto market is full of sins and thousands of scam projects have been created. so the more we need to focus on the analysis of the project and the whole team, especially the capital management. I once knew a person who had invested and traded in 3 consecutive months and his assets increased by 60%. but in just a moment, superficial and not following the rules, he all in and lost everything in a ghost project in 2018, which is Current. so be very careful and alert.

There are people that have been made rich from investing in the ETH ICO or whatnot, and putting all their eggs in one basket.

There's no denying that. But the chances that YOU are going to be the next person to succeed in doing something like that is slim to none, especially in this day and age where markets are much more mature and the prospects of a significant rally in the market the size of ETH's ICO price to now is significantly lessened.

Great warning to keep in mind. Diversification is key.

The profit recieve from the first many ICO is high as not expected by many of them who invested. Thats why many people lure to also invest in ICO ,t they want to also earn the same as other  The success of other they want to also exprience thats why it become trend and many people been fool by many scammers ICO.

People already realize this that putting the money into one basket will very danger because crypto provide unpredictable movement so you should be using all of possibility to earn money and minimize to lost and also don't too became the fans of one coin because your love sometimes cannot help you if you lost because stick to one coin only and the best part if you invest your money into several coins sometimes if one coin lost then other coin can possibly to recover those losses

well when we put all the assets in one basket then when the eggs have no value then we will not be able to take advantage because there are no reserve eggs to cover losses.
so when we make an investment, of course we must divide it into several parts which are the main investments that will be one of our best assets and the rest of our capital, of course we allocate it to several other assets that have good potential.

This is indeed a good and timely advice as we might likely enters or approach another bull regime alot of ICOs would resurfaces and new projects would enter the market with juicy promises to investors we just have to be diligent and very selective in investing in the right coin after a through research on numerous projects across the board.

Investing in crypto especially in new projects are risky because of possible scam that never get lost.

Putting your egg in one basket is not advisable so always consider diversifying, its a wise decision even how promising the particular coin is and you want to go all in.

yes op it is the basic principle we must do when investing in cryptocurrency. always research and invest as much as we can afford to lose. and investing in a few coins is also a good choice because by having a few coins we don't only rely on one coin. and the important thing is that the coins you choose are potential coins and not too many. I have 4 types of coins. holding too many different coins is also not good.

Thank you to your beautiful advice for us, I am always falling involve/in-love in every single project but I got loss of assets. Its hard to raise again if the capital has gone, I don't know where I will brought again a capital to use on investments but since I read this kinds of advice I got a little idea from here.

Very good if you already have a new idea to keep on struggling, the point is to keep up the enthusiasm and optimism at work even though a lot of capital is lost through investment, and of course this will be a valuable lesson for yourself and always use more analysis before investing in any project.

much needed personal analysis. to get success, we must believe in ourselves. errors in analyzing will give us lessons to improve. therefore take a decision because of personal analysis, do not follow the words of outsiders. I think we will be more professional if we learn from experience

No gems could be found anymore,it could be a metal same like which is already existing with us so risking the money is not worth on new project anymore unless that project got real hype and can be able to make some quick bucks by dumping when it hits exchanges.

As much as possible let's just use the fund we are earning from campaigns and use it in trading or investment if we really wanted to take risk and not our hard earned money. As risking your savings is for me not advisable enough as crypto investment is risky at all, wherein you don't know when are you going to get ROI, or worst you will lose all your investment.

For people who have long known about crypto, of course they have personal experience, but for those beginners will certainly listen to the experience of others in order to get the knowledge they want, although the analysis must also be done.

Well, their money, their call. Not everyone has the patience to work on campaigns especially if people have regular work. And i think it's a waste really nowadays to risk your money, any money, on a new project. As stated before, most of the new projects today don't really have or will never have value. Might as well gamble with your assets as the chance of making money there would pretty much be the same as when you buy new coins, minus the enjoyment.

You need to give a clear understanding. investment diversification strategies that minimize losses, then when making investments use the brain than the heart, always be careful to make investments and deepen information on where the investment you want to do. it is educated for new investors to face what is in cryptocurrency and some other investments.

A piece of straightforward and essential advice for everyone, it may be old but never wrong.


Yes, that is a fact. There have been too many paper projects created from ICOs and IEOs, where profits can only be determined by being listed on major exchanges such as Binance, Huobi, etc. to grow the value of tokens. That made many projects spend a lot of money just for listing on the large exchanges. That makes many projects spend a lot of money just for listing on major exchanges while that amount should have to pay on developing their projects.

that is true because most of the people only use thier emotion when they want to invest  .

when scamer tells good things investors will then become excited and happy on what they heard  so they end up investing on it  but they dont get that feeling or chills on the normal legit investment  . thats is  thier mistakes  . if they only used thier brain , they can still think properly and they will take a look if what is offered with them before they say yes or no    .

I hold about 30 coins in my portfolio because I believe that now can't be sure for 100% in the choosing of coins and the market can behave very unpredictably in relation to many coins and that is why I am not ready to entrust my money to only 4 or 5 projects. all these 5 projects can disappear one day. and if I have 30 projects in my portfolio, then at least 5 of them will survive and bring me a good profit

This is actually right, investing in just one coin might just not be the best bet. There are several other good projects you can invest in as an added investment.  In as much as I do not like to invest in just one project I also don't like investing  in every project.  I can decide to go with my 5 best or at most 10 projects for proper monitoring.

If a person was a risk taker, he won't mind putting all his asset in on coin. Average level of financial status can't do it, unless you're a whale who has a bigger amount of money that can be used for exchange market trading. Small investors can't sustain at risky asset, particular when there's no assurance of having profitable growth.

I have the same mindset as you, I never just invest in a penny but always divide my capital to invest in many places even good new coins.

Diversity is needed in crypto. It's good to have bitcoin but I don't prefer to trade it a lot so I will be needing other alts for me to continues trading. Same with some holding as we need to stop losses at some point on some holdings that are no longer active and to be able to earn we must risk in some altcoins that are potentially performing better.

good, crypto is not about one coin. if you have to love one coin, then choose bitcoin to hold long. for other crypto. collect as many different coins as you can. so when one coin scam. we still have others to make hope. but collecting coins is the best coin to hold today and in the future.

Thank you for warning me and everyone. I will not be too confident in a project or a currency but will invest and use my money in many different projects to ensure the money is growing steadily.

It is a good idea to diversify your investment into many coins rather than focusing your investments into one particular coin. You cannot say that a good coin at present can remain good in the future. It means the crypto market is competitive and new coins are coming in and any new coin can replace so called good one. So diversifying investment is the best option.

You are a very smart and wise person. I really like your thoughts. I will not be too hasty and greedy, I will invest as you mean it is to list many things to invest.

what you said is really logical because I also invested in only one currency and lost a lot, but when I expanded to invest in many currencies I did not have to worry too much and get the money. high interest.

It is very difficult if you only rely on one coin/token as an investment, so you should choose another altcoin that has the potential for the long term so that if your portfolio is not good and there are several altcoins that are rising, so you can get a profit.

It is very important that in every decision we make, we never let the chance of observing carefully a project slip away. It is our freedom to look at a project as if it wouldn't work even at the very first time we see it. There are a lot of scam projects nowadays and it is very easy to decieve anyone through offering huge promises. Never be contented and keep on looking for the best project so that it will be worth it at the end and always invest lowkey, don't bring all of your money out, give what you just have.

take a look at daily fluctuations and consider investing in some areas that will be better. Don't rely too much on a special promise when it's a new project that's not necessarily in your favor.

But it is very hard to invest in coins/tokens this time, so I would prefer just investing in 2-3 that has a lot of potential rather than investing a lot in a coins/tokens that has no value and will just lead you too more loss. So for newbies, my always advice is if you are unsure with the crypto that you are looking at, don't be hype and learn to be vigilant always.

Relying on just a coin is like bringing bread in a camp for a whole week without any alternatives or additional options. That is not the best thing to do. Invest in different coins that are better and it is true that we should not keep all of our eggs in one basket. Having more than one coin is much better to have a lot of opportunities.

Yes, as you said, choose another altcoin that has potential, and we have a lot of options when it comes to an altcoin who have their potential for long term investment. That way, we can get more profit and chances to earn more.

That's right, don't stay in one position and expect it to happen until you age. Liquidity should be another way to get to your success because all the roads are wide open.

exactly, many projects look like promising for the right now but in the fact projects look like success when the projects is in progress. after that? investor lose their fund begin the coin list on the market lower than ico price, the coins want to list on the market need long time, till the team leave.
maybe Old Investor know that, but for new comer its important

This year become my way only joining with bounty campaign and retired from ICO or IEO investing although manage by experience or beginner developer because I won't make the same mistake by investing in failed project investment, with joining bounty campaign maybe just waste our time but not loss with our money for investing, stop with new project without get much detail information why have to invest.

You are absolutely right mate! This rule should get applied in every investment sector of this world, not just in crypto! Because when you rely on only one project then your profit won't be much but you can get a huge loss for a long time, but when you invest in various coins then if one coin goes down, another coin has a chance to go up! So, there is always hope!

That is a major problem, ICOs and IEOs do not focus the most important thing and it is listing in exchanges. There are only few IEOs and ICOs that have successful listing in popular exchanges like Binance. It is hard to find a project that have solid team where they can list their coin in the most used exchanges. The project will become dead if it is listed in a shit exchanges where the users are only few.

That's right, we do need to put our limited funds in different baskets. After all, the cryptocurrency world is too risky. I don't know if the projects you support will disappear in the future. In order to stabilize, we will invest in different projects. more reliable. of course. If you are very rich, don't worry about these. You definitely don't care about these.

In investing it does not have to be greedy, because there are many things we must examine before making an investment, because looking for profits through investments is clearly not going to be easy, so there is no need to rush in doing anything.

Yeah, sweet words are very attractive specially when you got hooked in their telegram group.
They will do everything in their power of being nice to make you buy the token without even understanding fully what entirely the project is all about.

Don't confuse a good management with a good project.
Everyone could be good on the outside.

Investors should think thousand times in invest any new project/coin. When a project start their ico and ieo it's looking good. But after ico/ieo investors lose their money. So i think investors should make deep research about project. A smart investor don't invest all his assets in one coin. They have many choices. 

The main rule on this cryptocurrency is that invest the spare money that you have because investing in new projects is not 100% guaranteed profitable, sometimes it is a fail subject even though it has a good white paper. So to avoid losing all of your money, only invest the spare money that you have so that it will not be a burden to you if you lose money.

It is not only a rule in cryptocurrency but it is a universal rule that we must invest what we have in excess.  Just for example, money that is saved (taken out after allocating daily expenses) are also called our money in excess/reserved.  And when it comes to investment we should be wise about it.  Do our own research, be vigilant, do not trust marketers and promoters easily and check the validity of project team skills.  Because they are the one to make the project successful not just any whitepaper or promises.

Those are part of investment advice. that's good if we can do in any investment
there are others advice from many people, make sure we do well to get good result too

Agree that we must be careful in deciding to invest and diversify our portfolio. With diversification, investment opportunities can last when the market is bearish is bigger, otherwise we will be calmer because the market is difficult to predict

I have heard this warning often, and now I have applied it to myself. Investment fraud is not only in the field of cryptocurrency, because in daily life fraud also exists. the more altcoin / tokens available in the crypto market, it will make it harder for us to choose which is better, but I think all of that can be avoided a bit by looking for information about altcoin / tokens that we will buy.

  Every mistake has consequences, so we have to be aware for every deliberation we made including positivity and being knowledgeable for every possible reaction. Thus, the market is very volatile which is hard to predict for the running days ahead. Let us be cautios and decide which is worth enough to keep.

Youre absolutely right but crypto investors have been advised in a million times not to get greedy and only invest the among they can afford to loose in bitcoin not to mention project which is doing an initial offerings. However, falling in love with a single coin like bitcoin wont hurt but diversity of investment is good though and 3 good gems seems good for new investors.

Quick reminder, even if everything looks black right now, in future that black now can become successful. Every coin has a two sides, don't ever forget that. I agree that project can turn to scam even if everything was looking good at the time, but it can be totally different.
Bottom line, expect unexpected! You can't be sure in anything these days, you need to be aware of things and changes around all the time if you wish to survive in long run.

This trait will be able to really happen for now, you should be careful what will happen with this year. All new things can happen without you being aware of wherever and whenever.

If you can clarify more what is diversification? because I'm sure the beginners do not know about it, because in any investment there must still be research and caution so that we do not feel sorry when experiencing a failure in investing.

Nice One! There are principles of investment that we should really remember and apply it on our daily life as Crypto Enthusiast. I guess we can really focus on good coins but not only one but I think, we need more than 5 good altcoins. By doing this, even 2 out of 5 failed, we still have 3 or more good coins to rely to.

Best advice in this department would go as follows;
Every crypto-asset must be treated as it was bitcoin. We know how this market is in it's entirety connected or entangled with BTC price, bitcoin goes down, so must the other cryptos. In such paradigm only something other, unrelated with blockchain technology may be considered as a diversifying asset. Simplistically speaking, gold won't get you wrong  ;)
Spreading your investment among various coins, tokens or projects can not be considered as diversification at all.

Exactly. That is why we must understand the cryptocurrency ecosystem so well that we can prepare solutions and mentally if things happen that are detrimental. However, we must be prepared to face the risk. Always be careful and dwyor. All projects have opportunities, either detrimental or beneficial, so we take it midway, don't be too fanatical and don't all in just one asset. Don't be easily influenced and never invest money that you can't afford to lose

Even while investing in old projects, invest what you can afford to lose. Nothing should be taken seriously investments come with high risk high rewards. If there's any reward at the end then enjoy it but if it turns out badly bear with it.

investing in cryptocurrency is a challenge for all of us, whether in the end we will get a profit or a loss that is sure to invest in cryptocurrency just as we try our luck at it. many potential projects that already look promising and new projects have sprung up to be developed in this industry, and the purpose of the related projects is of course to attract investors so they can benefit from the investments made by many people involved, as well as reciprocity of a project will certainly provide profits to investors. therefore every investor certainly has a wise decision to be able to choose several potential projects in order to make a profit and not focus on only one project because the risk of loss is greater if one chooses a project they believe in

There is nothing more assuring than bitcoin investment right now, if you have to go for altcoins make sure they are on top 20 or 30 on coinmarketcap, if you are the type that like risk then go for top 100 coins, they might be more profitable than old altcoins

Putting your investment in more than one basket is a good strategy in order to avoid losing your all investment in one go especially if you failed that certain investment. Unlike if you have more than one investment as you can still recover your lost using your other investment.

Be smart so you will not easily lost your hard earned money. And don't fall easily especially if they are still new project as most of the new projects right now are shit coins.

With issue of scam coming up everyday. It become necessary to take time to analyze project even going as far as doing background check on the team. That is the only way you can save yourself from scam

From onset I don't "keep all my eggs in one basket or fall in love with any coin". By keeping your eggs in one basket, it entails you don't diversify your investment and put all your hope on one coin, you can only be right with BTC here. Some people also fall in love with coins in the sense that, they don't sell even if they are in massive gains, that's stupidity {then why did you invest in the first place}.

Some set of people don't get this analogy right, because they want to diversify investment, they do it but in the wrong way. Take for instance, you invest 100$ in 10 coins, I think that's a very wrong strategy. Check the amount you have to invest then analyze properly. Personally for altcoins I don't go beyond 3 to 5 on my portfolio at a time.

I think thats the basis of every thing related to crypto currency.

Either you are investing in crowdfunding, or you are buying to then sell later.
You need to stick to the basics, your profits first,

falling in love with a project would cause unneccessary loss.

While investing, do not invest in many choices of tokens.
Invest in the best options of tokens that you have researched and sure of

Before entering a campaign or a project make sure that you do a background check first and observation also to avoid scams. Most of the people who had involved in scams are easy to get. They dont think twice or thries they are just gonna grab the opportunity without checking if that campaign or a oarticular project is legit.

Trading and investment instruments should remain what they are - trading and investment instruments, and nothing more.
Many people make the mistake of falling in love with a particular tool or project, which ultimately leads to failures in logical thinking when making certain decisions.

bitcoin is indeed the most promising investment among other crypto types, but some altcoins are also quite potential to be used as investment assets, but before investing in some altcoins are required to have to research the coins we will choose

new coins prices are fake , value of coins are set by team and considering non of working products it absolutely expensive to buy coins , wait for the market to give correct value for the coins and then buy

That's right, and since the beginning of January this year, many altcoins have started to rise in price, so that it can help traders who have suffered a lot of losses in the past year.

New coins outside of large exchanges have very low volumes, it is not easy to diversify coins like this because they only look like gems with plans that still cannot be confirmed by the developer. I am more realistic by investing in coins that have been trusted as the main target of my portfolio, at least until the investment climate returns marked by altseason.

New coins are all new tokens lately. I like very much PoS coins but very few emerged lately, at least in here.
Is just me or new projects which are coming out are less and less in comparison with 2016 - 2017. I check "Announcements" section daily but there is not much to see (new projects I mean).

Not just new coins I think there are coins that is listed on the market right now with no real purpose or use cases, just a coin and its done, they dont offer anything that can help us in our daily lives. I think they are the biggest scam having a decent value, controlling the market because they have the majority of the supply.

I think it is impossible if only ordinary coins are created because all coins that have entered the exchange or have been registered in their coin marketcap are coins that have a concept of development that has been planned only that some of these concepts may not have been achieved, if they turn into a scam then the coinmarketcap will move the coin to the coin scam list so that it will be seen by many people.

If you are an investor then you must be diligent to do some research if you really want to get some profit thru investing.
Thanks for the warning but I think the best thing that I can advice to the investors out there who are always losing their money, just don't invest at all so that you don't lose your money. Sounds funny but you can think of another way to invest your money if you are continuously losing in investing in either ICO or trading etc.

Be Smart and at the same time, be diligent :D.

Indeed, for everyone in the cmc bitcoin is the most promising investment among other crypto types so we don't need to settle into projects that won't benefit us. Because there were still some altcoins are also quite potential to be used as investment assets just like tje Aci coin. But before investing in some altcoins, we must required ourself to make a deep research to understand the coins we will be choosen.

That was a common warning, since cryptocurrency is a risky form of investment that's why everyone who has planned to venture into this industry must observe those warnings at all times to minimize the risk of being caught in the middle, just remember as always the friendly crypto reminder "Invest only that you can afford to lose" and that should be a primary mindset while investing in cryptocurrency aside from gaining more profit.

Never keep your eggs in one basket is a good idea to reduce risk. Many project start by promising that their coin will be listed somewhere with a high price then collapse.

So far now that the ICO is almost died so almost scammers died too for taking chances in raising money through ICO, but let's remember that IEO is there, and we know how much scammers will do everything for them to scam too, so let's still be vigilant in every project we are aiming to invest.

not all scammers also leave the crypto market. they created a new mode to be able to benefit from committing fraud against investors. ICOs may die but there will be a new way for scammers to continue to be in the crypto market and continue to earn money. we are not completely spared them.

But people don't see the warning signs. People don't come here to read about all those scams we had in last 10 years in crypto. And finally people don't come here to learn more and educate themselves before they make an investment in crypto. Investing in crypto is risky in the first place, in bitcoin and ethereum and some other well known coins, to not mentions all those new coins that appear almost every day!
Quick warning should be "learn about it before you invest in it". If you depend on lucky guessing than you will have loses, because lucky guessing doesn't work all the time. Who wants to be in a long run should learn about crypto, and with learning chances for success rise.

cryptocurrency is famous for high risk high return, therefore we must have good knowledge here, everything is about making a profit, we must be smart in taking moments, even though we know the risk is high because there are always moments to make a profit. the point is don't be too confident on 1 coin, because all of this is about a profit.

We need to be very smart always when we choose new coins. I agree with you when you said that some projects are just coins and no real project has been implemented to help us on our daily lives. I guess we need to be very careful in case we will invest on a certain altcoin.

Stop investing in projects that see nothing more than a promise a website some social media and the token itself. If that is all it takes for someone to invest then that person is an idiot. Literally a copy-paste of every other ico just with different fluff. Yet people fall for it. Mostly desperate bounty hunters.

You need to do good research before investing in a project.
You hear such comments from everyone. So what's the truth?
I think great research can waste time. Make a review on Coinmarketcap. There are many good projects, the price is very low! So why? Because speculation rules the market.

Smart people never invest in one coin. They don't invest anywhere without research. Many new project seem good beginning but project failed Later. So investors should deep research  before choose new coins.      

if you only rely on one coin, it is recommended for beginners to study the existing market first, because there is a possibility you will pass the opportunity to get coins that will provide a large profit.

This is a fairly common and obvious rule, and everyone knows it. But unfortunately it is violated very often. Therefore, I believe that it will not be superfluous to once again remind novice investors that they should not forget about diversification.

The problem of some people in this industry is that they tend to focus only to one coin especially when they can only afford one investment at a time. While some also just choose to focus only to a coin because they do believe in the promise of the project. The problem in that case is that they tend to have unrealistic expectations because they risk so of their resources in one sitting.

Bitcoin is the only coin that's worth the risk of putting all your eggs in a single basket, we all know how capable the crown king is right? The risk of investing in bitcoin is lower compare to new altcoins, if you are a altcoin lover then go for top altcoins, top20 or top 100 the choice is yours

With Bitcoin you are in the safe side if you put all the money in, but with altcoins you can make higher profits. Bitcoin will never go 100x in few months for example.
Is all about how much risk you can handle.

Exactly the risk will be very large if we put all our money in bitcoin, because when there is a fall in price on bitcoin, we will feel a lot of losing money, so it would be better if we put our money in some altcoin top 20 and the rest in bitcoin, because of the king coins can also experience a price drop in crypto, so beware, friend.

I'm sure you've experienced the bitter experience of surpassing one coin, yes from that experience we increasingly understand how to invest well without having to worry about just one coin, crypto is like gambling so we don't focus too much on just one coin. if you want to get one of the promising coins

Yes, you are right, investing in crypto comes with different unforeseen circumstances, but do you know that a proper analysis or research before investing can also be very helpful. It can help pave way for a profitable investment, most especially on the long, which is why I do not see crypto as gambling. Although you cannot be 100% sure of what result it would bring, at least, you might have some incline of its outcome.

You have said the absolute truth but believe me many won't understand you till they learn the lesson, sadly that's how human nature is we learn beat when dealt with. Like you said already there are many coins in the market with many more still coming up, so it's wise to invest what you can afford to lose because even in most projects whitepaper they always outline the anticipated risks involved. Lastly, it's important to make wise decisions about each project before investing, in this case in terms of research etc, at least that's the best you can.

Its a good advice because few projects that starts with promising results end up on pretty bad shape, its better not to put your hope a new coin or project, its better to spread your investment among many good altcoins, both new and old just in case the unexpected happens

If I personally agree to invest in the old altcoin, because they are already really strong, and doing daily trading on the old altcoin is also very good at the moment, because the market conditions for the old altcoin are in good condition.

Greetings ladies and gentlemen. What I would say - these days users are searching for more secured way of investing, storing and interacting. And in my opinion, this is also why demand on hardwallets keeps growing

Oh yes, I have also noticed that demand grows, but I was searching more on advanced products available nowadays and it was really difficult to find worthwhile solution. I mean there are so many - so it appears to be more difficult to choose

Exactly, that's the point. And this is why it is always better to choose, based on objective ratings and recommendations

Are you aware of any advanced solutions if you are deeply into the market? Cause I am definitely interested to hear your opinion

Well, the most advanced and fully working product I am aware of is definitely GetHashWallet. Basically, guys are coming with fully working, advanced and reliable hard wallet that meets all current requirements. There are great results so far in different spheres, for example, they have successful campaign on Indiegogo with great support. They are arrow certified. But of course, I also recommend you to have a look at their website, cause there is much more info available

Hmm, so far sounds very interesting, will have a closer look and get back with own thoughts afterwards

This is a good warning which I see as a good advice. No matter what the project is promising it is wise to participate with spare funds so that In case of unfortunate events one can still move on. In time past this crypto space has taught us vital lesson which one can't forget so soon. There have been many projects which looked legit only to defraud users, there are also others which had a good public sale but didn't list on any exchange, while there are others which list and the team abandoned the project. So with all these experiences, your warning is very important and accurate; make your research on any project but always invest what you can afford to lose.

Often people do not understand the most important thing. This is what is important in the project, not what he is going to do in the future, but what he has at the moment.
As a rule, people looking at a project look at its promises, and not at an existing result. Which subsequently leads to the fact that the project is not able to solve the tasks and closes. And people who had high expectations regarding this project remain fools.

Of course, I completely agree with you that each investor first of all pays attention to the professionalism of the team with which he is developing his project at the moment, because any promise of future development should be supported by real actions that are carried out for this period.  This of course is an integral part that should be present in a promising project.  Nevertheless, I still constantly pay attention to global plans for using the project and how much this product will be in demand in society.

That's right, if you want to invest in any cryptocurrency company and have fully studied this company and all the conditions seem very stable and successful to you, this does not mean that investing in this company will bring you profit, maybe you will lose all your investments, so you always need to ponder your actions several times.

Then what is it? OPs suggestion is the reality. Most projects are just created to mix with the legit ones. Trusted projects can never be really be a trusted one if you dig into it. Btc can be an example. This project seems to be a shit one before but recent adoption proves their mistakr and see where it is now?


And another example is like this one. How do you even know if this is legit? I think I heard of it somewhere but the point is. You are not sure enough for a certain project and yet you already gain their trust. Always dig deeper to find out all about it. Then speak.

Nice one mate. That's  the truth no matter how promising a new project is, it is always not advised to invest all your money there, splitting it in several good altcoin would be nice in case where one go wrong, you will be rest assured that your loss would be minimised.

That is more thing to put in mind. Always make sure the credibility of the Team Members of the project. Even if the project has good and enticing proposal but does not have a credibiltiy and trustworthy team running behind it project won't last long and may eventually end up exiting with all the assets in their hands.

Truly obviously I know this additionally in such a case that we depending just in one altcoins and contribute the entirety of our cash the chance is high that all our speculation will lose if this coins is going to dump. So put our cash in different projects with d main goal that when a portion of our speculation lose or become scam not all our speculation will dump.

You mentioned important warning for investment before a new handsome or decent projects. I think one one brave to take this big risks at the moment, A lot of scam projects warned and examples for investors. One way investment is huge risky in cryptocurrencies because it's a volatile market.

We called it diversification. If you want to hold only one coin, probably it won´t be a good tactic because you risk that some coin will be replaced by another one, like it happened many times in the future, so diversify and reduce the potential risk.  8)

Diversify your investment portfolio and pick cryptos sensibly is the only key of earning. No matter how bluechip is the crypto it's highly risky to invest all in single coin. Diversify the portfolio and play safe.

yes, because investing in bitcoin could take a long time, unless the market conditions are good, it will easily increase.
investing in altcoin has different variants, because there are so many of them, at first it may be difficult to determine which currencies are worth trading.

You are very right and all your points are actually the basics of investing both online and offline, even in offline businesses failure is a possibility so that probability goes even higher when you are talking about an online startup, project, company or simply an investment, it can go wrong so diversification is the best policy.

Investing is not that easy because you are risking your own money digitally since crypto is a digital currency. This is a good warning for everyone who is risking their money in some projects since not all projects are good because there are projects that are intending to scam people. In terms of portfolio, you should have a solid one so it is easy for you to make things clear and going out with your plan.
The market is volatile in terms of the price of every cryptocurrency. So if you are holding a lot of tokens you should have plans to do so that you cannot lose your money. Diversification is one of a reason if you really want to hold one coin and give your full time on that and wait for the right time that the market will recover and to sell it on a right and perfect time. And as an investor, you should have patience because income in this kind of investment is not getting with just a blink of an eye.

Hello everyone. I would say that there is huge variety of different solutions coming onto the market, so I am here with the strategy I personally use. In my opinion, mine is pretty rational and can help to find the most advanced solutions

Hmm, I agree that there are many aspects that matter. And I am not only talking about the idea as the idea, but much more about complex approach. So curious to hear your views

Basically, mine is the pretty complex - I am starting with the niche. For example, talking about me, I am fond of different progressive IT solutions. After the niche is chosen, I have a look at the solutions that are having the highest ratings along with real feedback from users. And then I am also evaluating things on my own, paying attention to team, opportunities and more

Interesting and rational, cause usually people just follow what everyone follows. But I love your strategy more, it is deeper and more objective. As you are into tech and IT in particular, can you give me an example of the solution that meets your requirements nowadays?

One of few really advanced solutions I can recommend is ThreeFold Network, pretty widely discussed one these days. In few words, Threefold network is the biggest decentralized grid of self-managing Internet capacity in the world, being built collectively by an inclusive ecosystem and owned by everyone. Mission is to expand the current Internet to all areas of the world and to allow everyone to use this Internet at a fraction of its current price

Sounds familiar, I might have heard of it already, but will definitely have a closer look

What also makes sense - they are unique with the features they are bringing. And I couldn't find competitors with similar functionality. But of course, I recommend you to Google guys and have a look at the website to get a bit deeper

Good idea, will do shortly and get back with my thoughts. Thanks

Be smart; that's the key words and if someone allows his emotions to come first rather then taking the neccessary caution, the end result might not be favourable. Investing what one can afford to lose is really the best way to invest, in this case even if it didn't go according to plan you can still move on easily unlike when you decide to go all in, in a bid to hit it once. Lastly, most new projects aren't worth it, therefore let's ensure to try our best to check thoroughly before letting go of your precious hard earned money.

Nothing more can be added because this is true and can never be battled with. Most projects always present a good and attractive look, write good whitepapers and lightpapers, have good admins and to round it up have a good website but when it comes to delivering they have nothing to deliver therefore I agree with you, invest what you can afford to lose while hoping for the best. On the other hand, there are still some projects which starts off with their own funds, reached a particular height then starts seeking for public offer; although this type most of the times offers good prospects nevertheless let's invest what we can afford to lose. To finish up, loving a single coin is a No No as it blinds one from seeing what others have to offer; having one or two good altcoins is good in addition to BTC.

Be smart - that's just great. We shouldn't rely on our feelings or sixth sense in terms of investing. It is risks, chances, math, graphs and a bit of luck. No emotions will help you to make a good investment

I agree. Even such a project is really that promising and seems to be offering a lot to make you convinced to get into engagement or get into investing with them, always keep in mind to take precautionary measures that you will just take a small risk on just putting an investment into an amount you can afford to loose and never put everything into something because there are still lots of projects that ofer lots opportunities you can explore specially with the vast world of cryptocurrencies we are all currently into. Just take a small part or amount of your money into investment just to see how it will be going and do not settle for only a single project because many projects exist that can give you lots of opportunities to earn.

Thanks for this word of caution @OP. Sometimes we get so intrigued by a project we tend to forget that some of them can exit as scam project. I remember I invested hugely into a project called MiracleTele and it had a great use case but along the line ,this project started showing some signs of exit scam but i was so absorbed into the project i failed to see the reality. Now, this project is dead and i have lost huge sums of money. Let's always try and do a good research about any project we invest in and always be cautious too.

Yes, absolutely right, because whatever the work must always be accompanied by knowledge and a calm soul, because in investing it is strongly recommended to control our emotions so that they are not greedy and misguided, because the risk of investing is enormous.

It's smarter to do the same thing with bounty projects as well, not all projects will be successful and some will still manage to scam people no matter how good we are in doing research, so it's better to treat all new projects as untrustworthy, invest what you can afford to lose always

Good advice... it is a general trend that people fall in love for a single coin that has all the promises, they invest everything they can and then they are scammed, or the coin goes nowhere... I have been close to this scenario at my beggining and I'm sure a lot of people where too.
People also rush, but before investing, no matter the hype that is going on, due diligence must be made...

I also always say that don't put that money that you can not afford to lose. Sometimes people saw fake news or fake traffic in a certain project social media or group and they fall into love with that coin. Crypto is a very risky market you can lose all. So spread your money into many projects then at least you won't lose all your money into a single project.

You're right, there are many coins and projects that was being launched. Don't just stick to one coins just because it has a good head start. You should explore for more coins. With many coins, you have many options. Once, you start investing or trading in crypto you should be smart and decision wise because it is very risky and you can lose all your money if you make bad decision.

Quick but direct to the point. Many so called promising projects has dealt with us in many ways which makes me to understand that it is good to look beyond what the team displays or what so called partnership, news etc they have and focus on the possibility of that project making it. And even at this, we humans are unpredictable, investing what one can afford and being contented with it is possibily the best. Also, even though there are many untrustworthy projects, there are also trusted ones and therefore taking a glance on those ones (listed with evidence of growth) is worth the time.

You are right. In my opinion, investing in more than one coin instead of a single coin is both a logical and safer investment way. In this way, the failure of a single project will not destroy all your investments.

Very much as you say, if we just dig in a project then it is very big risk if we do not get paid then the time we spend only in vain, then we have to be smart in dealing with this problem because now many Projects that offer great bonuses but in the end we do not get any, then we must be careful.

Yup! agree people need to think how the crypto world really is right now, many people are using it as a source of income in a bad way, and many people are getting scammed on it, people really need into projects and the people behind who are working on it, lose is a lose and win is a win, and we are the one who decides how this crypto-world will run into us.

I think only greedy people who are willing to put all eggs in one basket, however taking the risk is the very fundamental and is a must to have in crypto trading. And as for now, we should be picky in entering some projects, they might look good but we should further research the project first.

I have to disagree. "Diversification" may be a good thing to do in the stock market, but not in the cryptocurrency sector. There are far too many projects and many of them are copycats of the earlier ones. I would recommend the new users to stick to the tried and tested, rather than going for the new projects. For the last 3+ years, this tactic has worked for me.

Yes, and investors who are experienced in crypto certainly already know this, they tend to make investments in several coins and projects, because they assume not all coins and projects can be profitable, so that makes them have to choose several projects and coins to invest.

If I start working based on just one coin. And if this coin is still profitable to me. Still, working with those coins alone will never work. Because all of a sudden, if the price of that coin goes down, I'll lose all. But if I work with better coins, and if reducing the value of one coin won't hurt me too much. Because other coins will compensate me for that loss. I really liked your post. Thank you.

I loved reading your warning post. Depending on just one thing, we can't really move forward. We must always look for alternative routes. Just as a matter of course, we cannot rely on one coin. We need to research other good coins and find out. And with all the good coins to move forward. Only then can you find success in life.

I am not here to fall in love with any coin. I always set my limit. Once I am in profit I will move to the next one.

All project should be treated this way because there's really nothing that most projects are contributing to the space. Every project is a utility project which cannot be used in real life its all virtual we should stay safe and be smart. Thanks for the heads up.

Well, that is called diversification. We should diversify our investment portfolio, relying on just a single coin will be risky.
There are too many scam coins in crypto projects, trusting only a single coin having higher chance to getting scammed.

Always rely on projects that proven a lot in the market and not for huge promises that double or triple your money for an instant. Everything works for a reason and all must flow in the right process. Good investors rely on not just for the price but also it's technology and application. It's not bad at all to be questionable and always stick with your investment strategies. Put the money first in secure tokens then invest for the cheap coins but it has a great potential in the future.

Agree, do not be tempted by the lure of price increases up to 2 or 3 times. Prices will rise naturally if the project can produce products that can be used by many people and investors will be interested in investing in the long term

Yes, that's right, if you only depend on one coin, it will certainly take a long time to have an advance, because the benefits are very limited, so it would be better if someone could want to examine other coins for faster progress in one's life.

I no longer believe if there is a promise of a new project because the plan might change at any time or not on time, and if I always do research before investing so that my investment makes a profit. Besides, it's better to put money on projects that are already running or look promising, even though maybe one day my expectations don't match reality.

Something like this could only learn in a cold lesson. I used to be exactly like OP mention. Gone too familiar with a single project, didn't even care for anything else. Put everything, time and money in that single project and when it crashes down I finally learn how stupid I am.

The idea that do not put all your eggs in one basket is old but that is true because if you all in your money to investment and if that is scam you cannot recover because you lose all your money. The smart investors are dividing their money to different investment but not only diving they need to find a teue and legit project that their money will grow...

I agree don't focus only one, always searching the project because who knows you will spot a good projects that you confident to invest.

I have kept my all eggs in one basket two years ago in CYFM and MFTU. I have lost my all investment as both tokens now shit coins and about to dead now. From then, now i am aware and don't invest in shitcoins. I always try to invest in top few coins but not all assets in same coin. I hope your opinion will help new investors.

The only coin that's worth relying on is Bitcoin, I can't even hold on to Ethereum alone in my portfolio, with 6 to 8 different altcoin you will be at peace, though top altcoins on top 20 will be better

   I think most of us started with Bitcoin, but as we are going forward we are adding more coins on the list.
I have more then 10 coins now, and couple tokens. I didn't invest in them at once, more you hang out
in crypto-market, you have more chances to notice some promising projects!
   I don't see this topic as some warning, I see it as a good advice for people who are getting in crypto-
currencies for the first time!

This is true, i trust in this project because they have a great development and real product. But the token price always drop since last year and now is worthless, seems the team don't care about the price.  :'(

New project aren't look guarantee to be choose for investing since a new project that just released will only get pump and suddenly being dumped and that the worst thing.

Even if you aren't lucky the project price will have no value at the end and most of them has became a culture. Take a look with some IEOs project even it was launched by binance.

Most of them only have a high price when it was traded but after that maybe it took several months to see it is price is down drastically.

The bolded is even an overstatement. Within a very short period of time, you would have seen the project down again Although, most of the IEO on Binance do not go back to their IEO prices. They still trade a little above the IEO price or the initial trading price.
If you talk of other shit exchanges, I can agree that it is worse. Imagine an IEO on P2PB2B, you can never see the coin trade at its IEO price, Before you know, it would have dumped so hard.
Irrespective of the exchange on which the token is listed, the OP opinion should be taken to.

Never stop searching for opportunities because you will never know when you will find that one that will change you financially. Smart people move along with smart mind. They know better what to dig, where to dig and how to dig . Variety is something good in crypto . It is always a good thing to have choices when one of your assets fails you still have another to carry you around and continue your trading or longterm investments. Be Smart and at the same time, be ware .

This happening to many tokens and coins because recently we have many projects which was started by teams very strongly but after some time teams not giving good time and intention and these projects drop like scrap.

yes that's right, even though it's a popular altcoin but still don't invest in 1 project because it's very risky. if you really want to invest in one coin, choose bitcoin

Thank you so much for this advice for this advice, I do not trust any coin anywhere anymore be it where ever including the exchange that claims to be the best. I have been hurt severally with lots of failed promises from projects and have decided to be more careful

Simple average calculation to understand the bad situation of any one coin. Coinmarketcap has over 2K coin, you selected single coin to invest, this winning percent will be 0.05%. your earning percent will be very low. Big investment in top coin and low investment for new coins. Bitcoin or Ethereum is for long time holders

Not true all the time. Sometimes, one basket is good enough to put all your eggs. Example- BTC. It is true that most projects are nowadays trash and scam and there is chance that you will lose ypur investment even. But why the need of investing in project without proper research? If anyone does that, chance of losing is low.
