I have tried multiple times with launchpad projects I would suggest projects in Binance launchpad but I cannot recommend any particular one as I didn't have any fruitful experience in launchpad except an instance when I had to hodl BNB and it's value spike up. It's becoming really difficult to participate in these launchpad but still Binance launchpad would be my first preference because I have seen launchpad projects wither dumped before you could earn a decent profit or low liquidity I have tied few with Gate.io but those don't worth it.

We will see more such project in upcoming days due to possibilities of bullrun which has made crypto community very active sine a month and half which men more people will be in the urge of earning more and looking for things like launchpad projects, joining private/pre sale which also increases chances of scam projects. Hence, share it in forum if you are planning to join any project so that experts can review and share their opinion which might help you.

There are hundreds and thousands of us with various ideas which are way better than current businesses but not everyone end up with capital or business and that's the bitter pill we have to swallow and this will remain same for upcoming days as well. There are various reason we fail to get capital and I have listed few of them below as I have witnessed in my life.

1. Approaching wrong set of people: Most of us look for investors within our family, friends and relatives this we miss out of potential inv stors who are outsid our comfort zone like venture capitalists.

2. Giving up without trying: Some of us just have the idea in mind but don't convert it into reality because we are too keen in just finding capital or investor instead we could start small and eventually once our success stories spread across we will have investors knocking out door (this is not applicable for all business and need minimum amount to start first without investors)

3. Existing financial burden: This is most common reason where we are so occupied with our jobs and enslaved that we cannot risk taking even one month break from our job because we cannot afford on our own without job. This is a situation where we cannot do much rather than learning new skill and switching for job which pays better and save money then start your business with minimal required.

4. Lack of knowledge on government schemes: There are countries where government have their own policies and programmes to help start ups find their capital and help them to set up the business with their own training and incubation program but most of us don't utilise it.

When I was introduced to Bitcoin I was given a clear understanding and a video link of 2 and half hours was shared with me which had described the reason why Bitcoin is created and why we shouldn't reply on bank and it covered several aspects like how our bank balances are just a digital representative of number and if all of us wants to withdraw our money at one go they won't have it as it's circulated as loans.

But people including myself has started considering Bitcoin as an investment medium but we will surely be using Bitcoin as a mode of transfer when we don't want involvement of any 3rd party and don't want the transfer to be recorded. Satoshi made a smart move by designing it the way where it has limited supply else it would become like dollar.

Emergence of other coins with lesser transaction fee and faster transaction speed has pushed users to use them for payment transfer, like I use TRON for this purpose.

Since the time I have learnt about inflation and how money or gold cannot help you to cope up with inflation I have diversified my investment into stocks, crypto, real estate and a small portion into Gold. It was a commonly misconception that Gold will help us to cope up with inflation but it fails and bank interest rates for FD are no different. It's better to invest into real estate if you are not familiar or not comfortable with Crypto or stocks. But I have high hopes on stocks and crypto but I am very active in crypto to shuffle my investments to get more out of it wherein stocks are into auto pilot mode and you just need a genuine broker to manage your portfolio.

Reading first few lines of your response caught my attention like how can someone take doge seriously but you ended it on a right note, Doge can only be considered as a example how weird and unpredictable crypto can be, I mean a coin which was created just as fun shot up to fame because of tweet and mention from Elon Musk and even those wise investors who are really picky about their investment ended up funneling their funds into Doge.

I can see some have mentioned how they got good profit from doge but at the end it couldn't hold on to the value so it can never to considered as an investment but we can play around in case if it becomes talk of the town again but trading with this coin but should never hold it.

I would like to brief about the current market situation as there has been surge in value of altcoins a much higher surge compared to Bitcoin and many would have utilised this momentum to gain profit but if we look at the other side if you just look for top gainers you will find altcoins with top surge but the next day or after few days if you check the top losers you will find the same top gainers in this list as well. So there is a price increase for altcoin but not a established one like Bitcoin, because we have not seen dump in the value of Bitcoin for over an month now but Altcoins has been pumping and dumping and in my opinion it's not worth to make entery for long term as of now it's good only for quick profit whole being very active. What's your opinion ? Shall we invest or just involve in quick trades ?

How difficult is it for you to check their FAQs and website where they have clearly mentioned that Elon Musk is no where related to this project and it's a fan inspired token which has nothing to so with Elon Musk, I understand Elon Musk has great influence as he can change the market situation with one tweet announcement but it's utter shame linking him to any project with his name, I mean it would hardly take less than an minute to got through the overview of the website.

I am a part of Eloncoin's signature campaign and this is the first thing it's clarified that it's a fan inspired token not owned by Elon.

Bitcoin is most preferred investment asset because of its ability to bounce back even if there is a market fluctuations and this is something which is not possible or really difficult with altcoins like XRP I still remember XRP is yet to breach its previous ATH which it attained during 2017 but that's not the case with Bitcoin and it's less volatile compared to other crypto henc people here discuss more about Bitcoin when compared to other crypto coins. If you have already invested in XRP then hodl on to it as once a year or once in two year we usually see sudden spike in value of XRP you may sell it that time. You may invest with whatever amount you have as there is no hard and fast rule that you have to buy minimum of 1 BTC or so.

We are discussing two things here one is copy trading, even I have not seen any copy traders having stop loss because it will be recorded against their name as a lose which will hamper their profile, for example you will see copy traders they would be running the algo for over an year and so but they never use stop loss and it makes sense because let's say they are trading with $100 and let's see they have a risk margin of 20% then stop loss will be applied at $80, but if they don't apply stop loss then the asset will lie in their wallet until the sell price hits and there is very rare chance of coin going zero unless it goes bankrupt.

I have intentionally ignored to mention anything about signal providers as they are the most widely used scam where someone who have limited knowledge about crypto recommends us on what to buy and sell.

There is nothing stopping ETH from achieving new ATH if we have bull run now but regardless of bullrun, ETH is aiming for $3k mark for sure because it's already past $2k mark and looking at market situation I don't think this rally will stop atleast till the mid or end of December if we happen to check the historic data. Most of us know that $5k is not the limit for ETH as it has potential of much more and I feel it's going to be the pic of Altcoin during this anticipated bull run. Everytime once the price of Bitcoin becomes stagnant or begins to drop people will switch to the next most trusted crypto which is crypto and same thing happened in first quarter of 2023.

Hey there has been multiple threads in the past in regards to comparison between gold and Bitcoin, just in case if you have not seen those I would like to share my opinion why we cannot compare gold and Bitcoin.

Gold and Bitcoin are two different assets wherein Bitcoin was created to decentralise our financial transactions and to give us financial freedom but once people realised that it can give huge ROI they started using it as an investment medium wherein Gold on the other hand gold is more stable and used to store asset wherein we will see lesser appreciation in gold but one doesn't have to worry about volatility and Gold is physical asset. People may use bitcoin for trading or investment medium but cannot hold Bitcoin as an asset like Gold due to fear of fluctuations and volatility.

I would would Bitcoin to trade, invest and gain profit and store it in form of gold as an asset. 

I have personally used the following indicators while trading and from my experience I could say that all these will help you at certain point of time but not every time and the harsh reality of these indicators are they will form a pattern post the price change occurs and not before that most of the time and hence, I would suggest to rather start researching about the current market situations and any news and events about crypto which could have positive or negative impact on crypto and trade accordingly. Indicators has helped me but to the extend and the accuracy suggested by influencers.

Yes, There is no doubt that people still have wrong assumption about Bitcoin as some still thinks it's a Ponzi scheme wherein some thinks it as gamble but they are not the problem because it's purely due to lack of knowledge and exposure they think that way but the major problem are the users who knows about Bitcoin but they were reluctant to invest into it or adopt Bitcoin at the early stage hence they are not ready to accept the facts about Bitcoin and still term it as bubble.

The worst sort of misinformation is that some think Bitcoin will make you richer and assume that it was created as n investment medium but they need to understand it was created for financial freedom and later people use it as investment and Bitcoin has it's own uses. Because those who thinks it just as an investment medium will never understand why was it even made. only proper education and awareness can stop these misinformation.

If we look at the previous trends the bull run should start now itself because most of the time second half of December is the time when we see Bitcoin's downtrend and it was the 10th November 2021 when Bitcoin reached it's ATH and we ended the December around $48k and further during dropped further $12k before the end of January 2022, basically October and November are the months when we an yield profits and Bitcoin can further surge but December has been dull month and we witnessed drop even during December 2022.

I think we need to be very cautious in the month of December to avoid losing money in FOMO. As you have mentioned we can expect upward trend during March/April due to halving.

What's the correlation between the Solana and FTX here? Price of Solana has nothing to do with whatever happens or is happening with FTX. Solana s a worthy project which provide much needed fast transactions with low cost wherein FTX is an abandoned exchange which started using it's investors money and just consumed their investment and moreover the recent Solana pump started a while ago wherein FTX started pumping like 3 days ago and people are just blindly investing into FTX once again without learning from mistake and they will end up losing it all together once again. Wherein Solana will be a game changer this time like it did last time and it won't be a short-lived pump as we have seen Solana gradually consolidating to the current value which it is trending now.

Please correct me if I have missed something which links Solana with FTX

There are hundreds of method which is been used by scammers and here we cannot blame the scammers if users are so naive and it's a common sense that we should never share private keys or password and OTP with anyone and I wonder how they end up sharing private key when at the time of creating account or wallet that's the first notification which is prompted to us. This is one of the most sophisticated way of luring in victims without actually approaching them directly wherein scammers just do role play to gain trust of victims.

We cannot do much on educating them as it has to be taken up privately since government won't support us in this cause because they are against crypto and will use this as an excuse to push for centralization.

Whales has already accumulated enough Bitcoin and maybe waiting for Bitcoin to hit new ATH in order to sell off their holding and I am little skeptical that they would blow off things so soon because we have seen in the past as well as there would be multiple bull traps we have have already witnessed and this time they would be reluctant to pull the trigger because there is major events like possible approval of Bitcoin spot ETF which is pending and if they outcome is positive then market will go crazy and $40k would be too less of an amount for them to withdraw.

You are right, we are already witnessing the ride wherein more than Bitcoin we have see Altcoins have pumped just like they did in the past and I thought to choose Bitcoin for its stability or less volatility compared to Altcoin, at the same if I need some quick profit I have to get into Altcoin, I have already witnessed it as I had invested into SOL when it was trending around $8 and cashed out when it reaches $25. I think Altcoins will exist but it would be survival of the fittest as there are thousands of Altcoins and some don't even have a clear roadmap and some have unrealistic vision. If we choose Altcoin wisely we can accumulate good amount of profit but hodling on to Altcoin on a longer run will not be a wise move because just like they pump they are prone to dump as well and not all the altcoins recover from the dump like Bitcoin does.

Hey some of us have already missed the entry point and I had invested some when it was trading around $8 but unfortunately cashed out at $25 with around 3x return and i understand that it's hit $60 mark today but I feel SOL may not reach new ATH because that has been the trend with all the other ATH as they hard new ATH once it has achieved ATH in previous bull run.

If you are a a day trader then you may enter Solano now because it's fluctuating and you can earn due to these movements but if you want to just invest and leave and not for a longer period of time then better wait and check if the value sustains above $50 even after a week or drops down. There would always be FOMO and we have already missed the entry point and it doesn't make sense to enter now.

This is my opinion based on my experience with Solano.
