Bitcoin is not dead. People always say bitcoin is dead when the price drops but the price comes back up after a few months. There is lows and highs in bitcoin price but it has only increased in the long term. And usage of bitcoin is increasing too. If the usage keeps increasing that means that bitcoin is becoming more successful.

It is not too late. Most people do not know about cryptocurrencies. You have to start researching about cryptocurrencies. Read about it and then start to use it.

After learning and using it you will no longer be a beginner.

I think Binance is the best exchange. I want to try yobit too.

Binance has a lot of coins and a easy interface. Its fees are low compared to other exchanges.

Most of my money is invested into Bitcoin and ethereum.

I want to invest in altcoins. I am thinking of investing in litecoin and nano.

This will help people and is good news.

Many people want to pay taxes to government but don't want to convert to cash everytime they pay tax. This will make it easy for crypto owners to pay taxes.

Have you tried contacting anyone from micromoney team?

It is selling on exchanges under the token name of AMM. If you think it is a scam you can just sell them on exchanges.

Telegram followers can tell something about popularity of the ICO but it is not the measure of ICO success because many telegram subscribers never invest in ICO and many ICO have many followers which do not even exist.

Do not buy ICOs based on telegram numbers.

Keeping money on exchange is risky. You should buy a hardware wallet to do it. Hacking and spamming is very common in bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies if you are not secure enough.

It is risky to sell things and buy ethereum.
I will buy ethereum if I have spare cash lying around but don't sell things to buy ethereum.

ICOs will not die in 2018. There are many good icos and they will become coins. the bad ICOs and scams will die and their coins will not be successful but other companies will still do ICOs.

It's best to do ICO's before the ICO. AKA the presale. Maybe join a pool to get an extra bonus too.

There's lots of syndicates showing up and I like the Gambit one, not cheap to get into though.

I think there's several projects doing this.  I think I heard about some gold DAO or something. Not a great fan though as gold just doesn't go up in price much. And if it did, a 3x ETF or something might be better haha.

Actually 3x ETF sounds pretty stupid, might be better to just get CFDs with leveraeg

It depends on where you are from mostly. There's many countries in Europe that offer altcoin directly.  Also many fiat exchanges have ETH, which still can can be considered an altcoin.

You could also just trade with someone you know or find some shady guy on the streets

Is it really a bubble if it repeats itself?  Love this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=XbZ8zDpX2Mg

Maybe it's just going to build up for one last big bubble in a few years, this certainly isn't the last one though, so much still has to come.

But after every ''crash'' the bottom goes up too so it's not a real bubble.

I am a big fan of cryptocurrency and I do not like the banks at all. Banks are very corrupt and create a lot of trouble for people and I agree with your other points.

But bitcoin can also be used for laundering money can't it? [/list]

I agree mostly. I wouldn't call it internet 3.0 though, although it's comparable.

I think Email 2.0 would be better. Peer to peer money, no need for a third party. It can't host millions of websites and institutions though.

I think Bitcoin isn't as big as the internet, I think it's  more comparable to email, just a part of the internet. You don't need to go to a postal service to send mail anymore, you don't need permission to write an email to whoever you want and it goes a lot faster, especially when sending abroad.

Email was never really the next big thing though.

Really hard to say, I think many countries will regulate more and Artificial intelligence is going to do blockchain analysis, causing criminality with bitcoin to go down a lot. They might use Monero or something though.

Highly unlikely that bitcoin is ever replaced by another cryptocurrency.

Bitcoin is the only leader in cryptocurrency. When the price of Bitcoin goes down all other coins crash. When it goes up all other coins go up.

Ethereum follows this pattern too.

Bitcoin transaction fees is decided by the mempool and the miners.

If the mempool is empty then a low fee transaction will go through. If you want a fast transaction then you have to pay a higher fees so that it is included in a block as quickly as possible.
