Many hunters sell their reward tokens on ForkDelta, but at the same time it is a good opportunity
to  buy some cheap coins when they enter the market. Hunter have the right to sell their coins
and do with them whatever they want, and it has no negative effect on the market. Bounty rewards
are usually 1-2 % of the total supply and cannot have long term effect on the prices.

ICOs are a good way to fund a project. Airdrops could be a solution but not for all the projects.
We rather need a self regulation mechanism on the ICO market than to stop the whole thing.
If there will be only one innovative project which will be beneficial for us and change our economy,
it will be worth of all the scams out there.

How to compare apple, orange and kiwi which is the best fruit. They are all fruits but there is no such as best fruit.
Someone will prefer one and someone else the other. It is the same with BTC,ETH and XRP. They are cryptocurrencies but
they are different and has different purpose. The total market cap is telling us which one is the best performing
 at the moment, and that is BTC. Of course it can change in the future.

It is true that many investors arrived to the market during the last year`s hype uneducated about crypto.
Some of them have already left the market, but some of them  stayed and got an education meanwhile.
I have a friend who joined  crypto end of last year and invested in like  10BTC for $15k and 125k of XRP  on
price of over $3. In the meantime he invested more on the dip and lowered his average and learned
trading. Bear market was a good teacher for him.

We all have our favorites and often saying such things which coin is better than the other. Nothing is wrong
with that. Only the time will tell us which coin will be better performing and will have bigger impact in crypto.

 
For bounty hunters it will be beneficial as they would not have to wait for their rewarded tokens to be listed
on exchanges with an uncertain value. Those campaigns should with limited number of participants, otherwise
they would be overloaded. The question is, why would the ICOs  pay in BTC, when they can pay in their tokens.
What would be the benefit for them.

We need regulations for the ICO market, preferably not complicated ones and global ones
if possible. That would protect investors from scam projects. It would not guarantee profitability
of the project of course, only to insure the founders do not disappear with the funds.

I am not sure if you are looking at the right charts, but anyway ETH is one of the most
trusted coin and platform on the market. With the upcoming development upgrades it
will solve the issues it had in the past and it`s recovery is not questionable.

Bounty campaigns are a good way for ICOs to make some noise about the project on a
cheap way. They pay out the hunters usually in their own tokens so it is the cheapest and
most efficient way for ICO promotion. This is why it is so popular way of advertising.

Emotions are definitely not your friend when investing and we should make our investment decisions
based on analyses and fact and without  our emotions involved. It is easier to be said than done.
When we become more experienced it becomes easier.

I sold majority of my coins last year on the hype so I do not regret that, only that I reinvested
back too early as I was not expected in my dreams that the bear market will take so long.

Last year there were community tokens where the majority of the tokens were airdropped while nowadays
the whole bounty budgets are 1-2% of total supply. Airdrops are much more profitable on a bullish market
when the tokens has some value, than on the bearish one where you get some penny when they enter the exchange.

I have huge expectation to ETH early next year. Hopefully the announced development upgrades
will be a meaningful ones with big impact on the platform. In that case I expect ETH to recover
much faster than other coins does.

Each time when we have a green day some thinks that  bulls have arrived. They have not. We need many to
recover and need many green days regularly to can say that the market has turned into bullish. And we are
far away from that point.

Bitcoin is the safest investment at the moment as it is always dominating the market during tough times.
In terms of profitability I think that ETH is undervalued as this year it lost a lost from it`s market share.
ETH is a high potential coin and platform and it will recover in the future with high ROI.

Many projects out there which are copycats and not representing any value. No working product, no customer
base etc. The hype can be only short term but long term only the projects with strong use cases and supporting
community can survive and become mass adopted.

The usage of the product is very important for the success. How bigthe potential is, because there is no
sense to have a product without people interested to use it. This is why it is important to select ICO with
use cases. But in some cases we are investing only in the idea, as the product is not existing at the moment
when we are investing into it.

Regulations are needed as otherwise institutional investors will not enter the market.
It would be preferable to have global regulations. Big expectations for G-20 meeting.

Many investors left the market because of the tough market conditions and many of them not willing to
invest at the moment as many of the coins  are dumped  after being listed on exchanges.

It is common that many projects postponed the token distribution due to the  market situation.
The tokens that they were distributed for the campaigns I participated are worthless or even
not listed on exchanges.
