Thank you for this Airdrop. The speed and low cost aspect of Alaricoin are good selling points. Please update if you will offer any bounties for this coin as I'd like to be involved. I'm also close to losing my "newbie" status. hope it happens in time! Good luck!

Hi there, i'm an academic and i could see this being used by myself and my colleagues. many of us do consulting and something like this could greatly facilitate those activities. some fields in which you might get uptake would be the social sciences (sociology, economics, psychology, etc.) and business (management studies, marketing studies) and public administration, social work. Theses are fields where collaboration is common and the expertise in high demand. Academia is also increasingly international, so it would be great to connect our consulting services with people around the world.

Genesis seems to have interesting potential, assuming the merchant adoption and platform development happen. I like that it is community aware. Dev says they are creating a voting App to let Genesis holders vote on different things related to the project and they have plans to expand it to let users to run their own votes, other projects, coins etc. A bit like waves but even more flexible?

I like the moon faucets. They let you claim btc, doge, and ltc whenever you want, as opposed to faucets where you claim every hour or fifteen minutes. Plus, the longer you go between claims the more coin adds up (though more slowly over time. best to claim every 2-3 hours). Unlike other faucets, these one pay directly to coinpot (a microwallet that you can find online), whereas other faucets make you wait till you've reached a minimum withdrawal amount. Here are links (not using my referral links bc I think that might be against the rules): http://moondoge.co.inhttp://moonliteco.in/http://moonbit.co.in/

A "darker" version of monero with a hard cap... this could lead to the token rising in value in a short time. I also appreciate the dev team deciding to to airdrop instead of crowfunding through an ICO.

You can download wallets to your computer that hold several different coins. Examples include JAXX, Exodus, and Electrum. Check out their websites and read the FAQs to learn about how the install. It's not too complicated once you start. Good luck.

I got into crypto just a few months ago. My first motivation was to make money but since then I have learned a great deal about the technology underlying it (blockchain). The crypto world is very complicated and it is important to understand the difference between coins like BTC and ETH and the multitude of new tokens being created right now (mostly through ICOs). I totally believe that blockchain technology is the future of economic transactions. It's a technology that will change human society, similar to the steam engine, the cotton gin, or the printing press. In contrast, most of the tokens that exist today probably won't be around in the future because they are typically based on a business model that tries to build something on the blockchain (gambling websites, new social media, etc.). However, some of these will last because they have a good idea with real world applicability that fits an existing need, like ripple. I could go on but that is my general view of crypto.

i think this is one of the best coin to invest in. There is an active development team who seem to care about what they do.

Dalecoin is rising! I think this project is very promising, lots of new traders make mistakes because they don't have enough information or they never look for information. Dalecoin seems like it could solve this problem, which is important right now as so many new people are getting into crypto. I see the potential here and will hold onto the coin.

To sum up, the easiest way is to see if there are any bitcoin ATMs near you. There are a few sites you can use to search. This one has info on several countries https://coinatmradar.com/. As others mentioned, https://localbitcoins.com/ lets you connect with someone near you who wants to buy bitcoins. Some exchanges let you cash out in multiple currencies, like coinbase and bittrex, but using an exchange requires you to send then information to verify your identity and send the bitcoin you have now to the exchange.

yeah, totally sucks being a newbie. i've been into crypto for several months but hate posting on social media, so i've missed out on several airdrops (not all excluded newbies!). i do understand why newbies are excluded though. only solution is to start to participate in the community in a more active way.

i think the environmental impact of mining is not taken seriously enough by those who support crypto as the future of economic transactions. this project also seems to be looking to diversify revenue streams. i'll be keeping an eye on it.

Centralising career pages seems like a great idea that fits a real need. Makes the project more promising than many.

The whitepaper is pretty solid. The problem it identifies is compelling and the road map near the end is pretty detailed. Text message payments to overcome lack of access to the internet is a good idea. It seems like the token will be used the make payments within the app?

There is no such thing as a "soul", but if you mean would you totally compromise your values and dignity (perhaps also betray those you love) for btc, then I'd say no. I definitely have limits that no amount of btc could overcome. Though I suppose it depends on what kind of person you are in the first place.

It's important to distinguish between coins like BTC and ETH, which are based on a blockchain platform, and tokens, which are typically applications built on a platform. Many tokens are created for ICOs (initial coin offerings) where they are sold as a way of raising funds for a business or project to move forward with development of an idea/new application. The idea of a crypto "bubble" could be applied to the ICO phenomenon as people are rushing in to buy these tokens without necessarily looking into the quality of the projects behind them. When you buy tokens through an ICO your are essentially investing in the business behind it. This means it is extremely speculative. If the business fails the token is worthless. I think you could describe the ICOs market as a "bubble" similar to the "dot.com" bubble in the 90s. There are many, many new tokens coming out but only a few of the projects behind them have legs and will last into the future. The others will go bust.
If you fear the crypto bubble then invest in BTC and ETH, or in stable and longstanding tokens that have real technology already developed (ripple, golem, sia)- though even these tokens might not be of value in the future... it is impossible to say. If you want to try to profit from the ICO craze then either research the projects thoroughly or just participate in free airdrops, which is something many new projects do as a way of drawing attention to what they are doing.

It's impossible to know what the value of bitcoin will do. The crypto market in incredibly volatile. There is no telling how far it will drop and getting the timing perfect is nearly impossible. You just have to consider the time frame. If you believe that btc is going to be worth more in two years then it is now, which I do, then go ahead and buy during this dip. If you're going to need the money you're investing in btc in the short term, then don't do it. Any btc you buy today will go up and down in value dramatically. You will see it loose hundreds of dollars worth of value in a few hours, and also gain that much in as short a time. The question is whether you think that the technology btc represents is going to grow in uptake and transform the way that the global economy is oranised. If you do, then it doesn't really matter what price it is today since it will be worth much more down the road.

Unless you are prepared to do considerable research into the ICOs you are considering participating (or have extra money to burn), then the best bet at first is to seek out airdrops, where tokens are sent to your wallet for free. In addition to the sources mentioned above, you can also look for airdrops on twitter ( https://twitter.com/cryptoairdrops?lang=en and https://twitter.com/airdropadvisor?lang=en are decent). While you are applying for airdrops you will earn about various ICOs and the tech behind them until you have enough knowledge to invest wisely.

There are so many airdrops happening right now that they can't all be legit. Can't be sure about this one either but it seems credible. Joined the airdrop.
