ICOs and cryptocurrencies are an unknown ground for governments. And they chose the easiest option - ban everything and later get to study this field. Let's hope regulation will be less strict and more sensible in the future ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

The main red flag for me is no MVP - investing in someone's ideas/thoughts/dreams is way too risky... And, actually, mistakes. If the team don't pay attention to such simple things, it makes them look unprofessional.

I think we need to wait for Durov's official statement. But if this ICO happens, this will be HUGE ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif)

You can never know for sure. 3 months ago I thought I should wait, but now I understand I should've invested back then. So I think the best time is now, and it applies not only for investing in crypto ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

I think there should be a thread like "noob questions" separate from "beginners and help", cause these repeated questions will never disappear As for gyus with 1000 spamming accounts - ID verification. Let people show their passports to be registered ![Cool](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cool.gif)

Just imagine. If ALL OF US would be rich, that means we would live our lives out from dividends, or any passive income of at least $1k a month. Then it would be jawesome, right ? Well, but then I do have a question. WHO on this Earth would bake the bread for ALL OF US ? Robots, you might say? OK, nice idea. But then, WHO on Earth would maintenance these robots ? Another robots ? I don't think so. Even if so, even if there would be a Skynet of robots, who would not just bake the bread, but also harvest the grains, transport it, deliver to our doors. What then ? We could eat for free, as much as you want? Cool, but what about overweight then. Doctor? But hey wait, NO ONE on this Earth work, so we have no doctors. OK, we have Doctor Robots. Who would teach our kids? Robots! Who would change the diapres? Robot! Even if humans would master all this, we would need to have all the knowledge to teach our robots to work for us. To be slaves for us. (no minds, just pure robotic hands/arms and so on, Tesla's and autopilots) But even then, there is one huge problem. I do not want to touch any country, or race, or group of people, but imagine, if you put infinite amount of resources to any kind of animal (including humans), they would reproduce themselves to infinite. Because they simply can. Because parents do not need to parent their kids anymore, because we have robots! So we would need a limit of reproducing, no right to reproduce as much as you can handle (infinite resources), because we would simple have like 50-100billion people on this planet, and there would be no robots who could grow so much grains to bake bread. (perhaps hyper dense pills could be the away). So, back to the original question, why do people believe, they all can be rich ? It was, is, and will be, ALWAYS about that who is going to earn more, not enough, but more than the others. Why? If there is only one mansion on the Bahamas, which is large enough, sunny enough, sexy enough, there is no freaking way, ALL OF US could buy it. Just one. 1. One. And if only 10 buyers come with their million, to who would seller sell this mansion to? First ? But second also have million and ALL OF US want to be rich (own that one mansion). So second would have to offer 2 million, right? Wrong. No one would want to sell such mansion in the first place, as he is already rich. We all are.
Dude, that's deep ![Shocked](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/shocked.gif) But be sure this will never happen. Like, it's almost 2018 and there're people on our planet who don't have electricity, plumbing, heating - anything! Go to some African tribe or a Russian village and you'll see those people will never be rich, at least not in this century. It's unfair and really sad, but that's what we have now

so many coins at ATH... isnt it a good time to buy fiat and take a rest?
I think that's what many investors did before this Chtistmas, which affected the market really heavliy. You know, it'll be nice to cash out and forget about crypto for a couple of weeks. Go to the country and have a rest, to make 2018 even more productive ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

What would you do when you're talking to someone but then he suddenly talks about his hatred on Bitcoin, what would you react to it?
I've never actually experienced anything like this before, I just want to be prepared when it happened to me.
How would you act if someone you talk to hates chocolate? It's their own business, I think. You can try to find out why they hate it, and then explain the reason why you love it. Then move on to the next topic. That's what people with different opinions usually do ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Hi Folks, Today there are more than 1000+ cryptocurrencies in the market. I was wondering why some of them success and some failure.
what do you think?
How does cryptocurrency success?
I think some years ago the road to success was utility and innovation. Bitcoin - the first cryptocurrency, Ethereum - Turing-complete, implementing smart-contracts, etc. But now it is a combination of utility/innovation and good marketing. You can create something that will change the world, but it won't be noticed unless you know how to promote your creation and make people trust you and your good intentions

I'm Hoeda From Indonesian. I just tried to join today. First I saw the enthusiasm of my friends in the village who had already mined bitcoin. About 3 years ago, my friend once invited me to join him. but I refused, because at that time I was studying and working in one of the bona fide companies. so I do not have time to spare. and now I have graduated from my college. then yesterday I accidentally saw my friend on Social Media, he has been successful with his efforts. I started chatting with her, she said her success was due to bitcoin. after that I am more curious and interested to join to bitcoin. many new things that I have not known here. Now what should i do as a newbie and howto get bitcoin BTC ?
I hope the members who have long joined here can share his experience. success for all of us!!
Welcome, fellow newbie! I think first you need to learn something about blockchain and Bitcoin. There's actually a free course on Coursera about these (a bit outdated, but still very informative). Then do some research on trading and invest some money in Bitcoin (I would recommend to do it now and then hodl, hodl, hodl). And remember not to invest the money you can't afford to lose. Good luck! ![Wink](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/wink.gif)

Two words: due diligence! Dive into this crypto world, spend a week reading whitepapers, searching for opinions, looking at the trends during the past years... And choose several coins that seem the most reliable to you. Good luck!

There are more than 1000 altcoins in the market. What do you think for the most stable altcoins?
What do you mean by "stable"? Not very volatile or more like trustful? I would say Ethereum, because of smart contracts and the fact that most ICO tokens are based on Ethereum platform.

I would like to understand the main reason behind the bitcoin dip/crash (whatever it may be). Currently BTC is trading at 12.5K on preev.com, and I am beginning to become scared as to what the near future may hold for bitcoin.
Is this a Bitcoin crash? Or is it a crypto crash too? Is it just the holiday season or something else? We can also see on coinmarketcap.com that in essence, almost ALL alt-coins are also down by a similar amount in %.
Hold or sell, what do you think?
PS: Please don't just spam this thread with:"Sell now, it will crash" or "Don't worry, it will go up". Base your points on facts that drive the discussion forward, not just general terms that have been already written down many times before.
I think you should hold. It's too early for cryptocurrencies to crash right now. Seems like a correction (bigger than usual, but anyway) This may also be explained by the growing popularity of crypto; they are becoming 'mainstream'. And the early holders start to cash out, scared of what can happen because of this popularity

Albert Einstein said: "I do not know how the third World War will be fought, but I can tell you what they will use in the Fourth—rocks!"
The military power is soo big now, I think Putin and Trump and everyone else understand that WWIII means the end of all. Too risky, and it will affect all of us, even the presidents

Does anyone else regret that hasn't invested in certain Altcoins that now rose 400-800%? Because I regret it a lot. :|
I think now is the time to invest. Prices are falling, and I'm sure they will rocket at the beginning of 2018

I think you should choose depending on what you believe in. I believe that our future is IoT, so I'd go for IOTA. Find a coin that seems interesting to you, and good luck!

You can try to post on Steemit. It's possible to get $400-500 per post. Btw, is there anyone making money this way?
|
|

I'm the type of person that almost cries every time buying a cup of coffee... And I also think (hope I'm not alone) the moment I invest some money, the prices will drop.
I have some savings, but not that much at all. What is our advice? What amount of investment makes sense? And what are your thoughts on what to start with?
