Greatest advice among others as for me. Really, I appreciate only bitcoin on this market.
Who knows what will happen with altcoins next month? Some of them will disappear from the web and only topic on this forum(if this coin had such) will remind about it. But Bitcoin will remain Bitcoin whatever

Oh I guess it would be better if I find this topic at the date of it's creation Because in spring all was waiting for the rockets that have never been before like ripple for 20$, ethereum for 4000, and of course alts that make 100x-200x-300x
And when I was saying that it will be the year of red market and losses with short-time green areas - everybody who hear it said that I am sick Now they are silent
I think it will continue. Just imagine - Bitcoin was 3-4k just a year ago, now it is 8k! And everybody is saying that it is so low that can never be again! So, whole year will show us

They will never enter this market if not a crypto-hype in 2017 - thats why they will disappear. Too many coins with no sense to market.
But good altcoins are going down and many think that they are dying too. But not like this - they rocket before - and now they just going to their normal levels.

This is kinda normal when ICOs decide to not to burn tokens after the crowd sale. Maybe if they will not announce that tokens will be burnt - they will not collect such amount as they did.
Everything is made for money. If they burn tokens they increase only investor's amount. But you should understand that nobody makes their projects for investors. For everything - to change the world, to beat cancer, to save pandas, to make such beautiful blockchain based milky factories and bakeries(lol), to become famous, to gain money from hobby and so on, but not to make investors reacher. Only ponzi are for investors

Thats an old topic, but I found the theme interesting. Maybe we can discuss now
Imo we are not in the bubble now. Or maybe yet. There was a greatest ICO hype in 2017, and many projects need to show results in a year. So 2018 may be the year of disappointment.
How much coins turned out to be scam? How much are doing something just to show that they are doing something? And how much coins made real results and make themselves closer to that points that were in their whitepaper?
So I think bubble started not to explode, but disappearing in slowmotion.

There is no surprise that all videos about ICO are paid. Just because if you run YouTube channel, monetizing it only by built-in instruments you got much less than if you advertise projects to your subscribes.
And every youtuber understands this, somebody earlier, somebody after time. And all we see is bounty material. But there is nothing criminal if the person who advertise it did the research and decided to invest in it.

So if I want to find some successful ICO I just need to trust in it? Nice strategy, infinite profit guaranteed
What about just check github? I think the one thing that is worth interesting is project's github. If it was made few days ago - bad. If it is not updating for months - also bad. You can't make technological currency without upgrading it sometimes. You can't make new Bitcoin in the first try.
So check github, this is the point

Hi fyoung55, I have searched for your application in Google Play but there is no such app in the store.
But talking in general - I don't see the necessity to make application just for tracking difficulty of only one coin. There are many web resources that can show you these statistics. Maybe it would be better if you make it more functional?

Every coin got their own sequencing to star a node. If you have fundamentals in scripting, as you say, it will be easy for you, especially having guide with commands which all coins should have if they want their coins to be on the market.
So the main resource for you is just github repository of coin that you want to start as a node, look through the description, and if you already know something you will spend less 15 minutes on that action.

Why people become so sensitive to green color on coinmarketcap? Many think that this is the beginning of greatest bull run ever, but please, stop - it is just a little recovery. There is no rise without falling down as there is no dipping without rise up. You see just intraday, so yes, here we are going up a little bit. Just a little. But if you will take a higher timeframe, you will see that the market is going down.
Only one thing is great - if you take the highest timeframe, you see - it will go up anyway But it needs so much patience. Those who react on every price movement scoffs at themselves.

You know, NEO is considered an Chinese Ethereum, but this coin tries to replace eth itself from the very beginning of it's development.
Also NEO tries to become the first(and I think the only) cryptocurrency in China, and this status will give much more opportunities to NEO not only as an asset.
And there are some ICOs on NEO, remember. While ADA is more like a project, all they have is not bad whitepaper and words words words. So my choice is NEO

Simply I don't understand why such bounty program managers need to identify every bounty participant. This is KYC - Know Your Customer. Customer -w we, as a bounty participants, are not customers. We don't pay fiat or crypto to receive tokens, we complete the tasks. Crypto is not such thing that is about full identifying each other. If somebody want to get my document why wont he share his ones with me.

Maybe this system is for decreasing of alts. I don't protect such people, they are cheaters, but they do the job anyway. And best protection from alts imo is higher demands to campaigns. For example, not 70 characters, but 400 per post, and it should be constructive, really constructive but not on topic theme. So my opinion kinda KYC for bounty participants is  too much.

If I was in such choice what I should buy as a long term investment(for at least one or two years of holding) I will choose Tron. I think it is better to hold Tron than Ripple in such timeframe.
Ripple is such currency(not crypto also) that was made long time ago and it is not something innovative. Tron is more like a new thing, it can become faster, cheaper and etc.
And of course these thoughts are only imho, and just for long time hold. I can't make a prediction of price movement in few days, maybe Ripple will be better in this case

That level of hype that EOS gained through its ICO is thanks to their marketing campaign. Their add was even on WallStreet monitors, so just imagine how much money did they spend on this advertisement.
One more thing - they gain money by themselves - I mean the price is not going up and down just on the exchanges but developers receive money every round of ICO(every day in simple). So they will have enough money to hire any specialist no matter how much he want for his job, really. So this project can't become scam in the nearest future

This is good idea, but there is one moment - all who want to know more about crypto, they already learning. Those who came here just for money - they don't need this information, crypto for them is just one instrument among many others, they don't understand true strength of it, and how crypto can change this world(really change, without exaggeration).
Thats why this topic is not popular at all Everyone converse about buy or sell ripple, not so many people who want talk about crypto.

This depends on what coin this is and what position does it takes in market capitalization rating. When 30% gains coin from top10 of coinmarketcap this may be the moment to sell if there is no reason for such up.
If this is coin with low cap it means someone just bought for hold, this is not the moment to sell. It is maybe signal for strong hold though.

Ummmm hello guy from the past, Utrust ICO has ended, we are in 2k18, and there is no pros of holding this coin for holders, it is by ICO price after the pump, so sell immediately to get profit. With love from the future.

Speaking on thread I would like to recommend you to participate in Yumerium. This is the project from my signature, yes. It is VR gaming platform that will allow game developers and gamers earn and spend tokens in their VR ecosystem(in simple words). I think VR will become part of our life in nearest future, and Yumerium team will make such product that will unite Vive, Rift, maybe even Sony VR in one ecosystem that will become kinda VR world. And its your opportunity - to participate in such great ICO and support this idea.

Ethereum classic is very massive asset to move in my opinion. Look through its price since the very beginning. It shows us the graph that almost every coin draw same time.
Pay attention on its price not in USD but in BTC. It is near its low of all times, not that bad of course but I want to say that it is dip now. And that is very complex question - will it recover back and grow higher.
As for me ETH - the modified version of ETC - is much more popular, and it takes the huge part of all crypto market capitalization. And I see no reason for ETH to lose its position, especially for ETC

We can make nice business together - just tell me what coin you would like to sell, I will buy it, it will become rocket, and I will share profit with you - we will accept your disease and make money with it
Seriously, there is nothing to worry about, there are many people as you are. If you want to insure yourself from such moments - just don't sell at all, sell when it is high.
But, seriously, you can sell something and write it down here - we will check if it works

There is no possibilities to recover your ethereum or any other crypto, and this is kinda weird that you ask if you can do it.
But what you can do is protect yourself from hacking. Your eth can be stolen only if your private key was stolen, so this is your bad that it goes to wrong hands.
If you are on windows just install anti-virus. And don't download every single file from the internet, take care of your money
