I do get where you are coming from, early last year, I told someone o invest into the space at the top, and lost almost 99% of his money. I was very bitter with myself and stop telling people about investing into crypto. Concerning trading, I think it is the best short for now to make profit from the space and one need to be very careful not to get carried away and lost the whole portfolio

What people need to understand is that these so called celebrities are just doing their job, and most of them do not understand what they are promoting or endorsing, it is left in ones discretion to decide if the project is quality enough  and have a potential for growth and market adoption before you invest into

Looking at what you describe above, it is a security tokens, and what do you thing these developers don't want, they don't want their tokens to be classified as  Securities because SEC will come after them. If you want this token design, then look into some of the security tokens coming up in the space now and invest into them.

For me, I think only the greedy people will fall victim of projects like this, we have seen this before, do anyone remember the era of E-Airdrops that flooded the forum, but we are they now, they are all dead. All these forks won't survivor long term so be careful

I have a feeling that until the talk here shift away from price to fundamentals and development, that is when the price recovery we are all waiting for will kick start, people are eager to get their return back form the space, especially those that recorded huge loss in 2018. For me I just feel we are likely to see more shitcoins die because we see the next bull run

When I entered the space, what we do have at most was 100 million tokens at most, but the greed in most of these developers came to play and we start having 1 billion, 10 billion and more. I do ask myself why are they doing this but  and conclude to pump their coins and influence the price of the coins. I am for low supply at most 100 million and developers not holding more than 20% of the total token supply

Your argument here seems obvious, it is just like saying we will have rainfall in Amazon area by July, we all know halving do have positive impact on the price of BTC, but to say BTC halving would impact the ICO market is a wrong assumption because for me i don't think I want to invest in just any project they way it was in 2017, which helps to drive the market up and most people lost their investment doing so. We have more than months to next halving and for me it is too early to start the debate now

I won't say this is fake as some people are ascribing this to, last year I read a so try that Samsung is experimenting with Cryptocurrencies wallet and if they feel they are ready to add it to their product why not, because this would be a very big selling point for Crypto and even help to legitimize it.

Satoshi did a very great job in the design of Bitcoin which for me is the only coin in the space with potential to serve this purpose effectively but the use of BTC as a store of value could have effect on its use as a payment tool in future that is why we need more economist to enter the space and help with the design of Crytocurrencies because 99% of what we have in the space now are just a carbon-copy of BTC  design and not improvement on what we have.

This service is good especially for those people still interested in mining, but at the moment the top cap crypto are not profitable to mine unlike the low cap coin with slight higher profitability but have low trading volume. I am looking into Grin coins and see if I can lay my hands on few of these coins and see what the future holds for it.

Looking a the history of airdrops, it does have impact on the price initially but with time price start to drop as more tokens enters the market, Tron team seems to be creative with this and could help the price but I won't hold this for long make money and move on because I expect alot of FUD to follow this project

We are very close to the bottom if we are not there yet, what I am waiting for in this first quarter is SEC stand on some of these projects under their investigations and also exchanges, because of they decided to go after big exchanges in the space than could impact the whole market, Chinese festival is coming which have history of negatively pushing down the price of BTC but the big picture is the coming halving which I believe will change the whole price talk dynamics to positive

I don't know why people are bent on mining and if you want to mine buy your mining gear and if not use the money to buy into the coins directly. I am saying this because 99% of online mining end up being a scam or default in payment and most people fail to get their capital back. I made this mistakes when I joined crypto looking to mine BTC but I was scammed of my BTC and I have read stories like this over and over again.

For me this is overdue, most of this top infrastructure platforms have a DEX attached to their chain even GoChain a recent project is looking along that line. The issue with ICON team is that they think build and developers would come but that happens in a space where you have the first mover advantage like Ethereum and Bitcoin which is not the case for ICON. Good luck to the team

Since the postponement of the hardforks, I have a feeling Ethereum may be losing its appeal in the space and make those Anti-Ethereum sentiments to grow and when you look at some of the competing platforms especially RSK which is compactible with Ethereum, Ethereum may start to lose out to competitors

I don't know why people are concerned about the unshared bounty tokens as long as the manager paid your own tokens in full, trying to probe into in this unshared tokens do not make sense to me, this is left to the discretion of the team to use it for what they like since they have fulfilled their own commitment to you

I have read some article related to this, preaching the potential of emerging markets especially India entering into cryptospace, but we need to realise that we can't compared the purchasing poer of people in the developed countries with that of developing countries. I feel though there is no real data to back this up, that the ban of US and CHina Citizen from ICOs has taken its toes on the space than the influence developing and emerging market have had on the space

I don't think all will follow Ethereum but most will, if one look at projects like DigixDao, DaiMaker and Augur all these projects have potential to surpass Ethereum in marketcap. The issue with Ethereum is that majority of the ERC20 tokens are shitcoins and have no real use case and will likely all lose their value in future and won't growth with the growth on Ethereum platform

This is very simple, this year 2019 I have a feeling that men will be separated from boys, most of the bad and scam projects in the space would died and allow the good one to lay the foundation for the scaling and adoption we are not expecting

What we need now is the development of infrastructure to help the next bull run, we were able to enjoy the last bull run because of ICO influx into the space but this could have been very positive thing for the whole space if not the abuse and scams that flood the space. I for one believe the whole market will be more than $Trillion
