Addition to the OP'S great advice,prepare some project related questions and discuss it with the ICO team in their commumity chat group.Many of the scam ICO's are just doing a copy paste of other projects whitepaper and by engaging with them we can somehow identify if they are really knowledgable or totally clueless about what they are doing.

this is the difference between traders and holders..traders would use stop loss and wont let their money sleep for a very long time until the coin recovers..traders usually stop the possible losses by selling and look for another good entry in the market and holders won't sell in loss even it took them so many months or even years..

Sa tingin ko mas maganda kung gagawa ng sariling project ang PCSO at magproduce ng sarili nilang token kesa gamitin ang bitcoin..gagamitin ang utility token nila para sa mga transaction sa loob ng PCSO lottery platform.

At dahil pagaari ng gobyerno ang ahensya madali nila ito mapopromote sa buong bansa,pwede sila magtayo ng mga outlet kung saan pwede bumili at magpapalit ng PCSO token ang mga Pilipino.at kung ang ganitong klaseng programa ay tatangkilikin ng mga kababayan naten pwedeng ikalat ng PCSO sa mga malalaking pandaigdigan na merkado ang ating PCSO token at ito ay hindi lang magiging lottery na pang Pilipino kundi para sa lahat ng tao sa mundo.

Cryptocurrency ito so maaring bumaba at tumaas ang presyo,for example may nanalo ng jackpot n 1 milyon piso na PCSO token worth 1 peso ang isa,ang ginawa ng nanalo ay binenta ang 500,000 at hinold lang ang iba,dahil nakatago lang ang.500,000 na token nya bababa ang sirkulasyon ng suplay ng token at maaring tumaas ang presyo nito dahil sa maraming namimili at gustong sumali  sa lottery ng PCSO.

makakatulong din ito para maiwasan ang korupsyon sa ahensya dahil sa public ledger kung saan makikita ang transaction ng main creator ng token kung saan niya pinagdadala ang mga token.Pero kung papayag ang Gobyerno na ipatupad ang sistema ng BLOCKCHAIN sa bawat ahensayang nasasakupan nito malaki ang pagasa na masusugpo ang korupsyon di lang sa ating bansa kundi pati sa buong mundo.Eto ang isang matinding dahilan baket tutol ang madameng gobyerno sa sistema ng blockchain,sa kontrata at resibo na ginagamet ngayon pwedeng pwede dayain ang presyo di katulad sa public ledger ng blockchain makikita lahat ng ni ultimo pinakamaliit na transaction.

Government corruption is the number one reason I see why there's still poor countries in this world..
I wanna set as an example a province in my country(The Philippines),called Maguindanao..

A province in the southern part of the Philippines that is governed by a tyranny political clan for a very long time and now being tagged as the 3rd poorest province in my country.Rebels exist in this part of my country and it's also one of the reason i think why the province is not making any development.

In a province where poverty is in all time high,crime,rebels,drugs,guns and other illegal activities are just a normal scene to it's residents,how come that their political leaders is getting rich day by day?( http://pcij.org/stories/featured-stories/shamefully-rich-clan-has-35-houses-fleet-of-wheels/ ).In this article its very clear to see how this so called political leaders abused their powers and took away all the things their local people should've enjoyed.

It's just so sad to see that the leaders who had been elected to support and help the people are the ones taking advantage of it's power and making the community people suffer more.

This is just one of the clan that have a long political dynasty history in my country and there's still a lot more out here..and i beleived as long as this kind of people exist in my country,many of us would still continue to live in poverty and poor life.

I totally disagree with this line. I am a bounty hunter myself and to be honest I am satisfied with my rank now. Why? cause i know that i'm still lacking knowledge about the whole cryptocurrency in general. There is a saying that knowledge is power which is true but I also believe that manners and good deeds will earn you respect. Try to observe this forum and you will see a lot of posters who are losing their dignity and manners just to earn those precious MERITS. Knowledge + Respect will surely make you a great person and nobody can take that from you.

NOTE: Not only quality post can earn you merits but also a helpful post.
