If you ask, you should probably don't invest...
Every altcoin can crash at any moment for millions of reason. If you are hesitating, you should stay away from all kind of stressful situation, and focus on more stable cryptocurrency : Bitcoin.

Just my point of view.

If you really want to invest, just do some research on the altcoins that you target and take your final decision without asking other people. They are not managing your money

You probably don't know the definition of "officially"...

For sure it doesn't mean "In my opinion"... I let you do your research...

Nobody can tell you what will be the price in 2 years. But people can tell you the strenght of a project. (Doesn't mean it will be sure it will get more value)
And for that, I advice you to do your own research because people will tell you to buy what they bought.
Firstly, to begin you should check the team of the projects, if they are often on social medias, if the technology is not deprecated, what they are aiming, read their white paper... etc

It'll be a good indicator

Basically, every altcoin that you bought in June was too expensive and won't come back to their price for a long time.

As safe as paying a plumber in cash without contract.
If there is an issue you can't complain

If you check a bit the altcoins world, there are a lot of token based on a really interesting and usefull purpose. The problem remain the same in every business. It'll gain value and fame only if people are interested in it.
If the project is great but nobody wants to use it, the principle of offer and demand is not matched, and the project (as beautiful as it is) will not raise.

The more I read, the more I understand that I'm far away of the full understanding of blockchain's fundamentals

You have to be patient...

Of course when a new technology is coming out, you can't use it anywhere, and you have to wait that it's sprayed before using it fully.

For bitcoin, in some years it'll probably be the case. You can currently already buy houses, rent flat, buy food, and live with it. There are plenty of video on youtube about experiments like "I lived 1 month with bitcoin".

Be patient and all you asked will be possible

If the regulation is made in a good way, it's a good point. The market is a mess right now, and everybody knows that the cryptocurrencies are way too volatile...

1. Coins or Cryptocurrencies
These are digital currencies like Bitcoin in which encryption techniques are used to regulate the generation of units of currency and verify the transfer of funds. They are operating independently of a central bank.

Soon every fiat currency may become a cryptocurrency, in that case operating with central banks. This is what Singapore has started with their Ubin project.


2. Utility tokens

The utility tokens are services or units of services that can be purchased. As describes in Balaji S. Srinivasan post, these tokens can be compared to API keys, used to access the service.

Can we have a source for those arguments please ?

As soon as you download nothing, it's safe.
And generally you don't have to download anything for airdrops.

The question is to know if you lost ETC because of a wallet leak, or because of a human error (fishing, clicking on wrong link... etc)
Generally it's our habits that we must change and not an issue of wallet.

If it was because of the wallet, indeed, you should think about the nano ledger

It's like sending cryptocurrencies to the wrong adress. You can try and it'll work, but you won't see it back.

In term of betting, there is also another coin on the market. Wagger (WGR)
If I remember well, they where live and working for the maywether/ConorMcGregor match.

The better way to answer your question is to check yourself their project and the deadlines dates.
If you start asking blindly what is the best coin, you'll finish allin in dogecoin...

If you can access to your wallet, what's the problem ?

NEO is my favorite.
Not because of the project, but because of the money that he made me earn :p

If Elon was leaving, he would have said it himself

You can't win when the dice are loaded. That's the same thing with pump group. When they give you the signal, it's already too late.
