The problem with this is that we're looking for coins below 225 satoshi now... and the only way to do that for me is to look for tokens that start out as ICOs. But ICO tokens now are over-valued, starting at way more than that. We can be tempted to think it's the next Neo or WAVES, but I think we can all see this is no longer the case. Market is too speculative, too much valuation. There are alts around for a long time too but again, are we willing to wait for years and risk the coin getting completely abandoned?

This is perfectly normal. When Bitcoin moved past $3,000 to $4,000 without even having its dip below 3k, I wondered when the profit taking would happen. I guess I have my answer now. 3k past 2,500 is not even 20%. They wanted double their profits at close to 5k. We should actually be impressed that this huge sell off can't even BTC down to below 4k.

What about a coin from your side? Even in a terrible market there should be a couple of alts you'd still pick, if not on strength of price short term, then on the valuation of the November bitcoin fork? Otherwise, I would like to hear your thoughts on STRATIS. It was above $7 and everyone said it would be $20, now it is around $5. And WAVES. When does it stop becoming good buy value?

hello guys, i've read about the ethereum metropolis hard fork and i'd like to discuss about what it implies in terms of impact on the market and in the technical aspect of hard fork:
-I have the doubt that the dumps of these days are due not only from Chinese news, but also from the desire to lower the price of the etherum in order to accumulate more in view of the hard fork as it happened for bitcoins.
-From the previous thought comes the one of a technical nature =>will the hard fork be like for BTC? so keeping the eth in a wallet during the process will be with the same amount of new eth+ old eth?
Almost a valid point except that the target of the price war wasn't ETH but BTC. ETH had already come down to half its ATH even when Metropolis was confirmed (a matter of when and not if). The accumulation is happening even now as a result, with ICOs doing the exact same thing. It won't be the BTC hard fork, where you have competing. I think people will agree to it and everyone will just move on with the new ETH.

Great moment to buy HMQ, at the moment price is 0.10 $. For me Humaniq is long term project since ICO was over only in May. Application is to be launched in September. Due to restrictions and regulations Humaniq moves forward step by step very carefully and it is not about many only but project for humanity.
I followed it for a while, when Mr Buterik was all over the pages being promoted together with it. I even read and watched all the videos from their ambassadors. Been so quiet now, almost forgot about it. I see that their token price isn't very good right now, compared to ICO price? But you never know with these hyped projects.

Stellar Lumens is also another airdrop. They already made two big distributions, one just recently. I'm not sure when the next one will be, but they will usually announce it on the website with instructions. Here is a post with more info on the last one: https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1982657.0BitCore is strange, never heard til now. Don't think I had anything outside of exchanges in April.

it's scam,
the devs who holds minereum wants to cash out at high prices
I don't think so, the devs have delivered what they promised, time after time again. Right now they're setting up a company in Switserland to handle the ICO, which can be expected to happen at the end of this month. Also, all the MNE received will be burned, pumping up the MNE price, which indeed is good for the devs, but also for the investors There are a few projects who claim to do this now, burning tokens and actively participating in the pump through buy walls. But what does this say about the project itself? Shouldn't a good project just focus on development and let the market take care of itself? Unless the whole project is just about profit, and then what is the use of having a development product? Anyway, ICOs are risky now. Let the China news play out first!

I don't know if any alt can hope to be higher than BTC, not in 5 years at least. Yes, the ideas behind Iota are wonderful, but are they more wonderful than the ideas behind the current top 10 alts? OK, except Dogecoin of course. There is something today's prices tell us and this is that ideas are not yet the driving force. Look at Bitcoin Cash for example. The smallest in terms of ideas and they are number 3.

Almost everything was down double digits today but climbing back up.
I picked up some more Waves, DGB, XEM, SIA
What you all grabbing?
I picked up some doge and steem. I'm staying clear on all ICO coins till it's clear what their status is. So it looks like I'm not really so unique after all hahaha. I picked up exactly Waves, XEM, Doge and Steem all in the same amounts (totalling about $50). I know it's not much but it's really more than I even intended to spend this month. If the market goes down even more, then I'll be buying another $50 next week. Good call on ICOs, put them way back at the end of the line for now.

So, What we have today?
Ethereum $30,994,496,838 $328.00 Bitcoin Cash $11,207,211,371 $676.48
I think that bitcoin CASH has chance go to #2 in market soon.
Agree with me?
I have to agree. I do not think Bitcoin Cash has any useful value other than being a pure alt. I cannot say it is better than #4 to #10 on market cap. Other alts had to start from scratch and BCH had a wonderful start. It will probably even be #2 at some point as long as it makes money for miners. But in the very long run, I doubt it can remain there when it is no longer profitable.

There are plenty of altcoin currently circulating in the market. The best place to read about them is Coinmarketcap and of-course on Bitcointalk. I like POS coins and my preference is as follows-
NET OHM 1337 HYP Onion and so on........
Should you have any specific questions around these, let me know.
PoS seems a bit tough at the moment, in my opinion, especially those kinds of coins like 1337. I spent a lot of time collecting and staking, and when I look back I might have earned more if I focused just on collecting Bitcoin or even DOGE faucets haha. But yes the idea is tempting always because of "everyone can mine" concept.

That's dependent on the ICO. If you can only invest with ETH, you could theoretically still deposit using some exchange services (send bitcoin and they send ETH to the address you specify) or withdraw from an exchange. But pay attention to ICOs most will only send tokens to the address you deposit with. If you have to send ETH then you need an address.
Also if the token is an ETH token... then of course you need an address.

Would like to find out if this is still going on. It does seem alive but as with a lot of projects, you probably need to ensure you get some other channel other than bct. A permanent Telegram or Slack or even email newsletter is what keeps us all alive. Email is best since we can always receive updates down the months. Keep on chugging. Liteshares!

Real estate has been the talk of town for many years. Was it that book Rich Dad Poor Dad and all that nonsense. Everyone bought property to rent or sale, and then the realty burst happened - this was the real big bubble. So I guess people just want now unlimited funds to buy up even more land and property. To keep the very high prices go even higher. A real winner, I guess. since over time, you can't seem to lose with real estate.

That's great news for the project. Thank you for the timely update although I'm sure hardly any investors were worried. Also very nice to see the pot grow to 20,400 ETH, and still one week to go. From the update, the 70% liquidation over the next few years will be of extra comfort, and the reminder that Australian regulations will ensure everyone is kept in line:) Keep up the good work!

How about ICOs that are over but you can already buy tokens from exchanges? I am sure now a lot of them have prices that are below the ICO price, especially if it was tokens sold at fixed BTC or ETH value, since they are now 10-15% cheaper just on crypto price alone. China banned the ICOs, but they didn't say Chinese people couldn't buy tokens or crypto right?

Based on what it has been seen among the wide array of altcoins such as development, innovation, and security issues, what altcoins might survive in the future? In my opinion, I think that the only ones prone to survive would be good old altcoins such as Litecoin and Dogecoin, but I may be wrong. Nevertheless, I would like to know your opinion about this as well as any altcoin that might be worth holding onto for the long term. Dogecoin, is not good, litecoin (LTC) is good because assians like it and they pump it sometimes very hard. In long term, it's hard to lose money with LTC. Moreoever, etc is also good in case of a pump. Their team will generate some ICO I think. Because Assians like it? Haha, I suppose this is a good enough reason. But you might be interested to know that Litecoin has a big non-asian following. It will always be regarded as Bitcoins smaller brother, so it will be there for as long as Bitcoin is alive, if not longer. Dogecoin? How can you ever kill the most fun coin in the whole wide world? We'll never let Shibe go away.

Everyone who buys a coin which has just risen 100X+ within a few weeks should consider the remote probability that he or she may end up losing all or most of the money...
Anything that rises can also fall. Absolute zero is the remotest possibility but 50% or even 90% is still within the realm of reason. NEO took a huge hit, makes people like me breath a sigh of phew. With all the regret for not getting in early, there are also the reliefs of not getting in just before the dip. Time will tell, but this price is just SO tempting now!

The price of altcoin and bitcoin drop. Should we be panic? What do you think of the situation. Will ICOs stop because of the ban by China, Russia and Korea? Will others follow those countries? What is the future of ICO?
I would only panic about investing in scam icos. Other there are 2 scenarios for me: 1. Atm we have 4 countries regulating icos that is by far not "ALL" world. Other countries will slowly follow and icos will be regulated everywhere. The regulations will force issuers of icos to register a company, be transparent, pay taxes and give guaranties to investors and be fully legal responsible. 2. Not all countries will follow, anonymous coins will rise and icos will be held in countries with no regulations. Everything will work as before... I would panic if I joined an ICO that was clearly made in or run by people from China. Why? Because this latest ban also asks that ICO creators there now start to refund the crypto to its investors. Do I think this is really going to happen? I doubt so. But yes, I think even if not, there is no reason to feel afraid. None of this will cause people to just suddenly lose money. Unless those ICOs just get afraid and disappear!

For the past two years doge has been one of the familiar altcoin in the market. I think since the beginning of this year this is the first time I started to hear about it again especially on this forum. I am also hope that doge pump Up like it has been since the beginning till when the price now remain stagnant.
Doge is an altcoin can mining with algo scrytp, if the price and profit for mining this coin increase up, I bilieve Bitmain will support this coin like Litecoin. In addition, next year is dog year's of China, maybe that time is era of Doge coin. Oh I did not know that! The Chinese are quite superstitious so this actually could be a legit proposition. The year of the dog should be auspicious and we know Doge miners are almost all from China. I would buy a lot of Doge now... at around 40 sat it has been holding extremely well. And you know there is lot of volume, easy to sell millions.
