Ethereum is rising but the fees are high! There is also fewer decrease in wallets been created on ethereum network. Instead of wallets increading as a result of positive for ethereum in the cryptocurrency market! The effect of new fork may not be felt instantly hut the price of ether will continue to rise as long ad bitcoin is rising!

When people say nothing is guarantee because nobody know exactly how event will turn out in the future!, I partiially  agree with them. What is happening in cryptocurrency is exactly what happens in live. Businesses florish. businesses dies! A coin is doing well, then it got hacked! Decentralisation is the most important factor in deciding a coin you want to hold for a long term

The long term project in crypto for me are the long term coin that are still developing and has high market cap. I will recommends Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dash and the most popular layer 2 solution for ethereum. Abitrum seem to be the candidate for Layer 2 solution for ethereum but it has not launched yet. I will wait and see if Abitrum will release a coin!

Elon musk is a hot name in cryptocurrency these days and if you ask Elon Musk about this coin, He may outrightly deny his inolvement with this. What matter however is the potential of this coin! What does this coin intend to achieve apart from energy efficient mining and transaction! What are both short and long term goal and how will it accelerate cryptocurrency adoption in general!

Another way to judge the viability and authenticity of new coin is to take a dip and long look at the team supporting such coin. Do you see people with cacity and good reputation among the team members supporting such coin? Is there awareness ot such coin in cryptocurrency community and github comkunity!  IlDo such coin have a financial backing from investors in cryptocurrency and outside of cryptocurrency

If you had ask this question five years ago, not many people in cryptocurrency would have mentioned bitcoin and ethereum in the same sentence, People would continue mentioning bitcoin alone! Bitcoin have come a long way and ethereum is catching on fast! Ethereum have make cryptocurrency to be more robust, realistic and adoptable! I recommend bitcoin and ethereum but I will say buy much more ethereum!

Blockchain is very versatile and we can find use for blockchain from wide range of ideas! Learning about blockchain itself is not new, there are lots of educational materials on youtube. You can also find reading materials on wikipedia and many cryptocurrency news website and media including bitcointalk! Blockchain can also be used for improving education material, plagiarism, Aunthentication of trainings and certificate etc. The use for blockchain is endless!

Basically, you stumble into coin and when it happenned, you will need to be taking by the coin based on Idea it present or represent or the feature it has or the potential imbedded in such coin! There is no particular method to find a coin that will be valuable in the neqrest future, you just have to believe or think that the coin that catch your fancy have a future!

Comparing Matic (Polygon)  with Dogecoin is like comparing Apple with orange, they are not in the same category. Polygon have interoperabilty features with smart contract. Polygon for me is in it's early days, we will see more development and more user which should lead to more value, delievering profit for all stakeholders in Polygon. Polygon is definitely a good investment!

Polkadot  and Kusama are my pick from your list. I think these altcoin are long term hold because of what their potential are! Polkadot interoperability provide economic scale by allowing multiple validator to secure several blockchain! Kusama is also similar to polkadot when you look at it's code! Polkadot is like improvement on ethereum!

Ethereum have changed cryptocurrency sphere for good!  We have more services on ethereum network more than any altcoin out there. The future of ethereum is however great if it continue on some of the important concept that made it great! Decentralisation is going to be huge in future finance and many other sector. Easy and cheap transaction will lay a good solid foundation to mass adoption of ethereum  and these are few things ethereum foundation should focus on!

What attracted me to cryptocurrency initially was the ability to own my money securely without any third party, this was revolution in my view! So, for the first  three years of my involvement with cryptocurrency, I did not aim for profit or business, Having access to my money directly without third part was enough for me! As I went on with my usage of cryptocurrency, my kept bitcoin started increasing in dollar value and here is where I am now!

I believe till I am able to see clear direction of where the market going, I will be staking my stable coin in exchanges that have proved themselves to be safe and secure! The cryptocurrency market is still in bear market and there are few opportunity for flipping! Another passive income is also in staking single asset!

Whatever you emback on in the pursuot of your dream, having a knowledge and thorough understanding is essential for you to be successful! I have seen people rarely take decision of where to put there fund into by themselves rather, they invest based on hearsays, promises and crowd! So in my opinion, multitude of coin is not the problem, unlearned investors in cryptocurrency is!

Ethereum market price is correlated with bitcoin market price. If bitcoin rises above $60k we might see ethereum that wiil rise to $4k! And if bitcoin get to another ATH, Ethereum might get to $5K. As it is now, bitcoin is yet to found a stable range where other altcoin could be predicated on in terms of price speculation! I'm looking forward to at least $4k ethereum pricing!

These stable coin are strong stable coin, Both USDT and BUSD are backed. USDT is back by physical dollar in the bank while BUSD is back by paxogold! Cryptocurrency user should not have problem using both stable coin. However, I have seen a user friend whose  fund were locked because of huge amount he holds in these stable coin.

There are many lessons learnt during end of bull market in 2018! When cryptocurrency market is bearish, the market overreat to prices  of all coin including quality coin that should not have been oversold because general negative sentiment, these are coin one should focus on accumulating. Another lesson learnt is that even during bear market , quality altcoin could be lunched and the fact that one should have an open mind!

Tether (USDT) stable coin is as safe as it get. There are many controversies surrounding the issuance of Tether coin, it's ability to pay all  it's supply in USD one for one and the irregularities of the bank deposit of Tether. We also heard of different lawsuit and the investigations by the authorities in the US about tether operations! Considering all the issues surrounding tether, it is however a good option for cryptocurrency users who need stability to create value and for those who wants to spend in fiat and hold usd for trading purposes! Tether has come to stay in cryptocurrency sphere and going forward, I believe tether will find solutions to it's problem one after the other!

When there is insane price rise like that of dogecoin, everyone will be talking about how they should have, could have, would have bought dogecoin when the price was below one cent but now, they have missed it. The truth here is that, when there is a huge rise in price, it only few people that benefit contrary to popular opinion! The sure way of making money in cryptocurrency is to have long term approach to quality coin like bitcoin, ethereum etc!

When you say market is deteriorating, what do you mean? Deteriorating market simply means such market is becoming worse, weaken , losing it's essence. All of this defination can not be said of bitcoin and other quality altcoin. The price dump is just one of the market situation that comes and goes. Some will even argue that is an opportunity for coin to distrobute better!
