Before building my strategy for investing in crypto-currencies, I have to rush from side to side on exchanges and I do not forget my experience of investing in HYIP projects.

Personally, I avoid this strategy because of the high risk of going into minus as a result of failure. My first auction was successful, but without knowledge of the technical analysis of the market and the structure of the auction itself, I can not competently perform transactions and as a result was in the red.

If there is free money, then buy more coins, while they have the most attractive price. I believe that a prolonged drop will soon end and the value of coins

The etherium platform is an innovative solution in the field of crypto currency. It was the first to provide a convenient tool for the implementation of decentralized applications, and until now is the leader in this matter.

In the next year or two, serious improvements are planned that will directly affect the ETH course. In addition to internal factors, in the near future, against the background of the end of the excitement with bitcoin segregations, one should expect a partial redistribution of investments from bitcoins to more promising alternative coins, including on air. In any case, the coin is now clearly undervalued, and has a serious underlying underlying reason for growth.

The growth of the etherium is based on the trust of the experts of the cryptoworld. And this growth is secondary. To achieve the bitcoin course, global, large-scale events with both coins should occur. And from the side of the etherium these events are planned in the road map. But on the bitcoin side, this is not predicted.

The quality of the etherium product is supported by a team of developers who guide it on the road map from a number of improvements. At the same time, global system improvements are planned, allowing the platform not only to remain competitive, but again and again to become a leader in the field of platforms for the development of decentralized applications. That there is one planned transition to PoS mining ...

the analyst in this market is extremely meaningless, because only the fundamental planned changes can be calculated with a certain degree of probability. But cryptoworld is diverse, unpredictable and interrelated, which makes it so volatile and interesting for traders.

some experts, before the end of 2018 anticipated the Ethereum platform priority among all other crypto-currencies. Among such statements were the words of Olaf Carlson-Wee, who claimed that Ethereum would become the most popular crypto currency, against the backdrop of losing its positions with bitcoins.

I recall the forecasts for Ethereum for this year, then the founder of Standpoint Research, Ronnie Moas, think that until the end of 2017, the airwaves will grow to $ 400. This statement was made on the general background of predicting the global growth of Crypto-currency, without taking into account events with segregations bitcoin or boom ICO etherium.

I saggest to look at Stellar side. After the introduction of smart contracts Ethereum, most ICO steel passes on its platform. Stellar plans to take away the ICO market share from the etherium platform, at least it concerns simple tokens.
Stellar offers a programming language that does not give you such freedom as Solidity. Smart contracts remain one of the basic concepts for the platform, but their configuration will be limited for security reasons. In addition, developers do not have to hire a Solidity professional to work with Stellar.

After the announcement of the agreement with IBM, Stellar Lumens became one of the fastest growing in price crypto currency at the end of last year. For an incomplete month, it added about 500% in price, and then soared from $ 0.21 to $ 0.91 in just 6 days. While there is a correction from the maximum values, the XLM rate is at the level of $ 0.8. The 2018th is predicted by experts to become a period of rapid growth for the platform.

Bitcoin is now too popular, not with a simple it. I'm sure - in due course the price of bitcoin will fall. What is in it such that it costs such money? Is that a rush demand, which is heated at the expense of themselves. Just like Baron Munchausen, who dragged himself by the hair up. There are new alternatives and so on, and in the result one ahead is the drop of the cue ball. I am a realist and do not want to stuff my pockets with crypto currency. Where can I go to the underground cryptillionaire if everything breaks?

In connection with the fact that crypto money is not issued by the states, accordingly, no state directly can influence its course. It depends purely on market factors - from supply and demand throughout the world. In addition, the cryptographic code that is embedded in this money has a limited number of combinations and chains. Therefore, any crypto currency has a limited volume. They can not create an infinite infinite, since each crypto currency is unique. Hold.

Commission for Operations. All exchanges have different commissions on operations. The smaller they are, the more you can earn for each transaction. Users without verification on some exchanges include restrictions on daily trading volume and on input / output of funds. Those wishing to not shine their data, such exchanges will not work.

The growth rate of some crypto-currencies for the year 2017 grew by 10-20 times. Among these currencies were: Bitcoin, Litecoin, Ripple, Etherium and others. I am sure that in 2018 there will also be those, whose yield will be higher than the deposit rate in any bank in the world.

I think it will be even easier for you, because you already understand how contracts work for the difference in prices and all that remains is to monitor the price. While such an excitement, of course, you can keep longs. However, at once I want to warn, the volatility here is serious, so we need another strategy for risk management. If there is a desire, try it yourself.

Good reviews - an indicator of a positive reputation. They are usually written on thematic crypto-currency forums: Bitcoin Talk, Reddit. Ordinary for each exchange has its own branch, for example, such a Binance.

What do you think about the prospects for investment in crypto-currencies in light of the growth in popularity of mining? and has your opinion on the prospects of various currencies changed somehow?

I suppose that the growth of the "army" of the crypto currency will change the balance in the market: the investment interest will shift from bitcoin to altcoyins.
