It is not serious. Crypto currencies are not a scam, it is a phenomenon, that is going to launch the next industrial revolution in the upcoming years. Be strong, do not believe in such statements and hold your coins.

Unfortunately I cannot agree with you, because the market was falling for almost a year and there is simply no sign of recovering. We are going deeper and deeper and I hope that the next year will be more green.

Why should it end? ICOs are representing a new fundraising method that is not going to disappear in any way. I believe that we will find a method to protect our market from scam projects and allow only legit projects to enter the market.

It is pretty bad for the ICO projects, because they are facing a lot of loses in this case, but it is not our problem. If the team is not able to create enough hype around their coin and attract the new investors, it is their problem.

I have no doubts that the market is manipulated and unfortunately we cannot affect the market with our small parts of it. But I still believe in crypto currencies and I am sure that the manipulators are going to make profit as well.

It is the best time to get more altcoins because the prices are so great at the moment and I wish we will get our new year presents from the crypto market, because it cannot be that the market is going to fall for another year.

You do not have any idea how it can be possible. Nowadays, if you enter the industry, you are also accepting the risks of getting scammed or losing your money. Unfortunately I do not know any way of getting your money back.

I hate such centralised coins like Ripple. It is getting even more sad, when I see how much people are investing in this coin. Guys, you need to understand that we should support crypto currencies and not centralised solutions.

What else are the investors supposed to do? The market is still falling and there are no signs of a bull run. People that are saying that the bulls are back, just because the BTC returned to 4000 USD, do not understand anything in this industry.

The bright future will come and I have no doubts that this bright future is near. People are losing hope and I can understand it, but realise that without patience, we won't get anything on this market.

Sure you need to invest in altcoins. Especially in such a situation, where the prices are so great. I am sure that we will never return to this level again, so the last chance to buy perspective altcoins before the next pump.

Outstanding post. I hope every investor will go over this post and finally understand that you should not invest in every ICO that is live on the market. Be patient guys and when the market recovers, the situation will change.

When we are going to be honest, there was no real alternative to BTC in 2018, because the year was hard and almost always going down. BTC showed that it is still the number one crypto and it also did not lost so much as altcoins did.

I think it is very important to hold a KYC for any ICO, because it helps to check every contributor and to assure that this person has not cheated or tried to scam the project. I do not take part in ICOs that are not doing a KYC procedure.

I am always looking at the ICOrating websites, because there you can find a lot of useful information about any project that you are searching for. Moreover, the projects are usually rated by experts that gives you a bit of understanding how valuable the project is.

It will never end, people should understand, that blindly investing in every project without a deep investigation may not be a great idea. Just be more selective with project that you are taking part in and there will be less fraud projects on this market.

I have also expected the bull run to come during the fourth quarter, but look at the market now. It is still in downtrend and nobody knows when it is going to recover. I am losing hope for a bull run for this year.

I would diversify my funds and to split my deposit into four equal parts. The fist part will go to the crypto market, the second to the stock market and another two parts in completely different industries. It would help to save a lot of funds.

Sure we are the early adopters. Look at the stats, only a small percentage of humanity is using crypto currencies and image people entering the industry when BTC will cost above 100k USD. We are the early adopters and it is awesome!

What will selling bring you? If you have bought some BTC at the 15k dollar price, why are you asking about selling. If you sell you would lose 10k USD and it does not make any sense to me. Just hold and wait for the bullish market.
