Getting a 7000% return does not mean that the coin will not go down, there were several coins in the past that gave every investor a huge profit and then went down the drains and never recovered, so we cannot have a benchmark on the return of investment at a particular time and that being said i am not expecting the valuation to go down to zero either.

If all the USDT in circulation are pegged with US dollars or any other asset then i would not be worried but the problem here is that the team is not always transparent with their collateral and at one point they said they have pegged fiat currency equivalent to the coins in circulation but when they were taken to the court they said there are other assets pegged as well and hence transparency is the biggest issue i have.

I am surprised to see that you mentioned Qtum, Komodo, Neo to invest. I would stay away from them as they failed to deliver on the promise and the developers mostly ignore them, if there is a sudden change which i am not aware of as i stopped following them a long time ago.

Diversifying is a good prospect but you need to identify tokens and coins that would give you the maximum profit.

I witnessed how the ICO market was trending just like the DeFi market and everyone who invested during the early stages made a ton of money and basically it was a pump and dump process and i am expecting the same with majority of the projects and with all the drama i have seen in this market i will not trust to hold these alts for the long term.

The problem with the TOR network is you need to have more users using the network if not any government or agency monitoring the network can pin point you. In fact VPN is much safer in that aspect and if you are too scared about it you can use both TOR and VPN in tandem which will give you a much higher privacy.

While trading it depends upon the exchange i decide on using TOR or VPN.

The second wave of ETH started recently after the DeFi hype and there were huge investments coming in and i am not sure how long this will last, we already saw a major correction in the DeFi market. When ETH started they had the hype that you could send the coins with much lower fees and we know the situation and whether the much hyped upgrade will sort the issue is a big question and if that did not sort the issue then the investors will rethink about the viability of the coin.

The hype about the pandemic was really huge and the shutdown was real but i did not see the same impact in the stock market if you take into account the entire market was shut including manufacturing units for a while and i am yet to understand how the market was able to hold firm for a long time even though there were some corrections every now and then, so if a second and third wave hits you need to see whether the markets could hold further.

Everyone will be having a varied opinion regarding holding and selling off coins, the best option for you is to monitor the growth and if you are able to create a bot to monitor the price and volume round the clock then you will have an idea when you should sell the coins. If i am holding a coin i will be doing these and since i am aware that the market is due to rally as per my past experience i will hold further.

With the current hype it is possible that it could reach those valuation but the gas fees are really high that could sway the causal investors away from it and as long as the hype is making them money they will be using it. The developers have missed the date for the upgrade many times and we do not have a date when they will implement the Phase 0 .

Having a deep understanding of the sport is necessary but gambling is a bit tricky as you need to follow everything about them including any injuries they are having coming into a game and if it is a team sport what team they are using and their injury situation and so on. We have seen many upsets in the past one month in different sports and no one could predicted looking at the squad that they would loose but there were many upsets and hence anything is possible and there is no safe bet in sports.

If you are really expecting a bull run then you need to attract big fund houses that could invest billions into the market and with bitcoin being a strong performer in the financial sector for the past several years all the big fund houses and investors are aware of the market and these big investors determine the bull run .

The launch date is a blunder and you are quoting an old man who made his money hedging funds and what are you expecting in a decentralized currency, each and every government approving a decentralized currency. It is your choice whether you wanted to invest in it or not and if you are not interested in the market you can leave it alone. The technical aspects is well documented and if there is any asset that gave its investors the profit in the last 10 years it is bitcoin and nothing else.

There are many fans of Conor McGregor but he is getting into trouble all the time and that could affect his fan base. The main reason for anyone to put these fight together is to make money and the Floyd Mayweather was a perfect situation as he was on top of the MMA world but now he is not having any belt around his waist and Manny Pacquiao is a highly skilled boxer and anyone who follows boxing knows that it will be an easy fight for him.
They need fans in the stadium to make the most out of it but i am not expecting any huge PPV sales with this fight like the Mayweather one.

If you look at the social media regarding the long time valuation you would see many accounts shilling for ripple and all the social media analyst are bullish on the price when the market rallies, it is not a bad idea to invest a couple of hundred dollars in it and see how big the market would go when the market turns bullish.

It is a cycle for sure, the timing of ICO was coinciding with the rally last time around and the DeFi introduction exactly during that stage when the price of bitcoin is expected to rally pulling the entire market along with it. It is a cycle and make sure everyone deal with these carefully. I burned my hands with ICO and i will not be doing the same with DeFi as i will be careful and will cash out the coins without holding too much.

The owner ran away with the money and then came back and apologized because he knew he left trail that could reach him and even though they are brought by another company the reputation that is tarnished cannot be retained and it would have being great if they could create a new project rather than keeping this name if they really wanted to succeed. Not a big fan of these projects because i am yet to fully understand every technical aspects.

It is a really long wait to see the upgrade and whether it will address everything is to be seen, do you identity a coins being best because of their price valuation and if that is the case there are several coins you can add in that category and ETH is certainly one of the top volatile coin.

The DeFi has given ETH another reason for a rally and i hope we will see a rally when the entire market starts rising and if you are smart enough you can make money than any other financial investment.

Do we really need a fight to determine who the best boxer in the world and that too against McGregor, he had a phenomenal rise in the MMA scene and that rise is taken a beating against Khabib after all the trash talk and gassing out against Mayweather but to think that he can challenge any top boxers in the world is just foolish and if the fight is put together it is going to be an easy pay day for Manny Pacquiao.

Does that mean that the bank is giving out loans for people who are having high credits, if that is the case it will be a risky proposition as the cryptocurrency market is really volatile and we might see people suffering big loss when the market goes down after a big rally, will see how this will go and whether it will boost anything.

The government cal allocate the funds so that the people who lost their jobs can be compensated until the pandemic is over, bitcoin is a tool to pay the bills just like the Euro or Dollar and if you have those as an asset why would anyone wait for the government to compensate. For all the newbies bitcoin is not a magic money that can reproduce itself, you need to have a job or an income and it is always a passive income if you are skilled enough to invest or earn it.
