It is the same thing for me, I don't see any reasons why good projects put their coins on the exchanges that won't people won't even mind trading in to. It is just ruining the project for me. And even though a lot of people always asking the devs on telegram on when is the listing on the exchange is going to happen, and they are getting pressure out of it, there are good projects that managed to list on binance without taking so much time.

It's not that we should celebrate early or not celebrate at all but it is something that the investors should be happy about. These things happen and are expected by the experts but I hope it will continue to push until the end of the year.

There are actually good coins that are in the top list before that are not in the top list now. So yeah, altcoins bleeding is normal and some altcoins are going to come to the point where they are going to die out.

For me, it depends on the information that they are going to ask. As long as it's not going to have any information about my bank accounts or where I live exactly, I am just good with that. I use my real name on facebook and my real picture so I don't have any problems with those information.

Whenever my transactions take longer than usual, I always feel like I clicked or types something wrong during the transaction. And it happened to me ones. But other than that, I always received mine most of the time on time.

I'm not going to be surprised if nation/states/governements are trying to accumulate bitcoin. Because in my country, one of the politicians is taking interest in cryptocurrency and launching his own cryptocurrency which is the pac coin. If a country supports it, then the government officials must be trying to accumulate some knowing that it can really be profitable.

GRAM coin got a lot of investors and base on the article that I've read, they are expecting a 400% return. Which isn't really absurd for me since it is a coin that have the potential to shine in the future especially when it reaches liquidity.

I hold a lot tokens that did not become profitable and I just let them inside my wallet. The project from my tokens are Live but they are not kicking and I don't think that they will even when a bull run comes. And I really can't sell them because they're just worth nothing.

If you're a person that just heard about bitcoin, I think the first thing that you will hear is the price. And from that they would start asking questions about it's legitimacy. Next, information about decentralization, anonymity will come along.

Most of the comments on this thread are about IEOs. But I'm pretty sure that there are/ there will be good ICOs that are going to come up. As long as they have a really good marketing, a good and working product, and have a transparency to the investors. I treat IEOs and ICOs at the same level since I don't always have a good experience with IEOs.

It's not that bitcoin is not intended to be a stock. It just depends on how the person is going to use it. And most of us here knows that blockchain has nothing to do with the price because it is a "technology". Bitcoin is not intended to be a stock is your perspective about it. Some people use it like stocks because it is volatile and can earn money from it.

It was first introduced to be by my uncle but he wasn't a bitcoiner before. And he told me that bitcoin is something that is used in the dark web or a currency in the dark web. So initially, I thought it was as currency made by the people there. Year 2017, is when I started joining bounties and started reading things about bitcoin.

Isn't it the same with the ICOs and depends on the project? This kind of information is not revealed to the public as far as I know.

I think 40% bonus is too much for early investors. It could cause the token to fall if not executed properly especially if you're gonna execute it in the early stage. The project managers are probably doing this to gain more investors. Can't blame them if they don't know that it can cause it to go down.

Because it is not something that should get decided on. It is something complex that there might be some regulations that is going to be unfair on both sides. In my country, I was just lucky that the government really don't mind the people using cryptocurrency but they always tell us to be careful of using it.

It's not that ICOs are scams in general. But there are still going to be ICOs that are going to perform well and not going to scam people. Not even IEOs can guarantee you a good amount of money just because it is already in the exchange site.

IEOs are just well-disquised scams, that's all.
So they pay a fee, you buy their tokens and....what guarantee do you have those tokens will be worth something? None!
But you fall for it because the useless token is already on an exchange and you feel like this gives them some kind of legitimacy. It doesn't.

Just because you know the team, you know where their office is, they are listed on an exchange, they are paying articles to promote themselves is not a guarantee it will not turn into a scam. Remember bitconnect?Centratech? How would have an IEO saved you from it?

Does this go without saying that all IEOs are scams? From my experience, I really don't have any good experience with IEOs though. But I do join bounties that have something to do with it. This is a thought provoking statement and I never thought of this before and just joined the hype.

Even though there are centralized cryptocurrencies, I don't think that private organizations can centralized everything. But As long as there is a company that will deal with cryptocurrencies, I think there is a high chance that they are going to centralized it. In the end of the day, it is still our choice whether to use it or not.

Recently in our country, the PAC coin is already on the mainstream news channels. It has still something to do with cryptocurrency and in our case, I don't think it will get banned especially that one of our politicians are actually launching a coin. Government institutions can't ban it, but they can always regulate it.

I think if the government act on this problem, they can lessen that 76%. They don't have to focus on the modes of payment of the illegal things but instead, they must intercept the people and the products outside the dark web. I'm pretty sure they can't use internet if they are behind the bars.
