will having trouble about it hahaha... not all ICOs is a scam bro... they are making tons of coins every month so that the market have alternative and choices in investment ... in other side ICOs are different in other ICOs in-terms of profitability and service they offer for the future...

this is what wallet i use to store my  ETH www.myetherwallet.com it will hold private key and keep safe your ETH there...
the rest i still hold on Bittrex waiting for the time to sell it on the season...

these all lame... government wants to hand the crypto world because these aint no tax... now they seeing it a Billion dollar income and they cant touch even a single penny... they want to control and give by-laws on crypto so they also get a profit on it... how sad is this....

i have a bittrex account same with you i am still unverified user but my cousin use my bittrex to transfer 0.54BTC to his account hassle free... its been 1 month old my account in bittrex and we dont experience this issue even the first time i use it... maybe bittrex have new policy to those unverified user by now....

check out bittrex.com or marketcap it will help you decide what to trade... Im just trading all my coins to BTC... 

i dont think it is too late to Buy NEO but as of now the price is too high... Good for those who hold it and buy on pre-sale... as far as i remember the price of it is around $6 or $7 before now it ranges about $30 to $50... i saw even $100... my bad I dont get one before.... if the analysis and prediction of my friend and i are true it will stay on top until next month and increase its value... GOOD LUCK TO ALL!

my biggest return was before hard fork.... buy btc around $1800 and hold (it was suicide that time) but the day hard fork happen the value stay and now it increase by %3200 return by around 56%.. you can invest $1 in alt those coins that doing down or dump because it will pump up again just wait for the season ...

better to trade it to BTC as for this day it will increase again... but for the following week it have most of a high possibility to increase again...

if there are many blog about the project or wrote an article about the project it will highly beneficial to the project most of the investors are search on google and other sites containing about the project they want... if they see many article, blogs and review about it you can attract many investors.

i think it is case to case basis.... but itis good to buy coins when the market crash... low price coins equal to a week to pump them up by many manipulator and ta dan.... its like what happen on the hardfork in bitcoin... price go's down (maybe because some holders are getting panic) and then after the fork the price back to normal and after a days or a week it increase its price by $3200 ... oh yeah!!!

i saw a discussion about this a month ago but i can find now... i will look at it for you and i will post the link but i think BTC mining rig is one best wait to mine... then by Alt usimg btc for  investment....

by now price of ETH are going down unlike before after the split came up... buy i have faith that it will increase it price again by the wek or after a month thats why im still holding my ETH by now. as for my own perspective ETH is one of the good investment if you want a long term investment... it is easy to make coin using ETH and there are many miners and investors on this coin...

hoping that this will be a good project ... starting reading about it now... good luck
