Most projects are dead, for the very same fact as most startups fail. It is just a statistic. Applies to every industry

I spend most of my time researching people even considering investing here. Too many people get burned by following others advice

I don't think it is wise to speculate on price action. People have been doing it all year and nobody is right. Dont be fooled by whales at play

I have made a lot of money with ICOs, because I invested time and money in research before entering. Most are crap and scams, others are groundbreaking projects.

If you find a solution let me know. I am having similar issues. It just annoys me, do you know of any better wallets which are easier and better to use?

Thanks for this, I agree with what you are saying. This is most definitely a form of contract. I think projects will keep trying their best to get around things like this. Regulation needs to come to this space fast

Great words. People need to spend the time learning before opening their mouths here. A lot of people have lost vast sums of money in this space, due to lack of knowledge

I think most never really did well overall. The bear really did hammer this space. But lets see how 2019 fairs- i think good things are coming for most good projects next year

There is a huge requirement for stable coins. Most investors don't want a currency which is worth 1 dollar one moment and 50 cents the next. Currency cannot operate under such fluctuations

Crypto is in a dangerous opportunity if that makes sense? Very risky trading arena, but with huge profits but likewise huge losses possible

That is because eth is the most popular crypto out there. all ats ride on its blockchain (well most anyway). Just natural that people like to talk about it

People like to do the opposite in trading. They wish for low prices but too afraid to buy when low as think its going lower, then they buy high when it pumps for fear of missing out. Cycle like this get 90% reked and traders rich

Bull markets come in two cycle-first btc pumps then money leaves btc and pumps alts. the pumps in alts are far great than btc due to marketcaps.

I think the only way is to do bounties. I write articles for which I get paid in eth. others do other forms of bounties. This is the only way i can think of

I agree we don't need 90% of these, but these "altcoins" are the projects improving the tech of blockchain and pushing tech boundaries. SO yes there are needed

Eth has proven itself to be the best platform to launch ICOs. People try put it down all the time, saying others will take over-but show me where? Once casper is released and eth scales I am afraid the rest will falter

Bitcoin is perhaps the best coin to hold long term. I would happily bury private keys in a vault underground, and happily reap my millions 20 years for now. 90% of the other crap wont be around

No they cant. Bounty hunters are nothing more than vessels for advertising a project. Take for example a content creator like me, I write reviews (damn good ones at that!- check cyptoguru1 on steemit and tell me otherwise). I deserve to get paid for my work, it would be no different than the project paying an advertiser to promote their project. Nothing in life is for free, this space is no different. What a bounty hunter does with their money once they get it is their own business.

I believe that the lifting of ban only refers to large investors does it?. As in there really is not good news to celebrate.

I don't think Monero will ever replace it. I just personally think privacy coins will not last once regulation comes into effect. Bitcoin will remain the store of value, which other projects drive the technology side
