You are right,crypto currency are totally safe but we have to keep it in a safe wallet for without being hacked.If you keep you funds in online wallets or in exchanges then no one is resposible if that money hacked.

Crypto currencies are really safe until it kept in a wallet with private key access.

Wow,I am too amazed by your million dollar question.

There is already a big thread about ripple speculation in altcoin disscussion section,so you may get the answer for your question there.And it is a wrong section to post your question buddy.

ICO investment is much riskier because some of the tokens will not be listed on exchanges if they can't make enough funds from the ICO sale.So you need to incvest on the project with good project team then the risk will get lesser.But no guarantee that it will be listed after the ICO.

Owh,sorry for that.I thought we have to collect our posts then post on meta section to get merits.But it is to become the merits sources and then we have to find the quality post of someother as well,because that is the main job of merit source.Find quality posts and merit them.

There is no connection between the price of crypto currencies and US dollar,if there is price fall in the US dollar value then it will leads to the price increase on crypto currency when we convert the crypto currency into dollars.If the dollar getting more weaker then people may start using crypto currency in their day to day usage but still we are in the early stages so nothing can be predictable now.

Yes you are right,I am also found that Mr.Theymos said there is no more signature links for junior member because nowadays lot of farmed accounts are created for the intention of joining in campaigns so restricting Jr.meberes can stop spamming of the forum very much.

So,in future the managers maybe accept the participants based on their merits rather than their rank then it is a good way to reward the quality posters.But Junior members can participate in social bounties but no more signature campaigns I think.

Bitcoin is still dominant because it is still the expensive crypto currency.Every year the price of bitcoin is falling at the beginning of the years so this may heppening this year also.But the price will increase in the coming days and will prove its dominance over its competitors.
The main reason for the crypto currency fall is happening due to the regulation of crypto currencies in most of the countries so investprs are confused still their government will ban or legalize bitcoin.So it may take some time for all the conditions to be setteled.I hope the price will increse from March of 2018.

You can get merits through quality posts but not all posts will be merited as per the current situation,because there are only 49 merit sources so it is hard for them to see you quality posts.
So you can collect 10 quality posts of yourself and post it on meta section then they will give merit if it is quality enough.

Trust can be obtained through trading,managing campaign but never ask anyone for trust feedbacks it is against the forum rule.

Its very simple,post some good quality posts then it will earn you some merits. That is the only way you can get or earn merit.

If you are getting the merits in some other ways means you are abusing the system and you will get tagged by DT.

Well you can hire Mr.Yahoo,one of the reputed and best manager of our forum,he is undertaking the ICO projects also.But don't know about the payment is in token or in BTC so you can contact him personally for further information.

Here is the profile link of yahoo : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?action=profile;u=355846 . You can conatact him via Skype for faster reply.

You can found the bounty campaigns on bounties section of alternative crypto currencies,in that the signature campaign allows users to post on local boards also,so you can complete you minimum quota on posting local boards only.
But many of the campigns won't pay you in the end so we have to pick the right campaign.I suggest you to pick the campaign which are running by the reputed manager.So the chances of scam projects are very minimum
Recently I saw a bounty campaign running by yahoo one of the best manager so if you want participate on that campaign.

The link for that bounty from yahoo is here : https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=2801253.0

*Merits are welcomed

Buying ethereum and litecoin with bitcoin is not a big deal.We have already a lot of reputed exchanges to convert BTC to ethereum ot litecoin so don't try new exchange it may be a scam website.LOL

Do you have any working experience bro?If not it is going to be hard.

I would like to suggest you some tips,make an attractive thread first no one will hire you if you post like this.And create the services you are going to offer them and what kind of bounnties you are going to manage like social,media,signature or all in one.
If no information no job.And make a thread in the service section also it may attract more people.

Myether wallet is the best ever wallet for erc20 tokens because it will support all the tokens and new tokens from ICO.SO we don't have to worry about recieving the tokens on MEW.In some other wallets we need to contact the wallet support to ask about that their wallet will support this token or not.If you send the tokens to the unsuppoeted wallet then your tokens will be burned and it can't be recovered.

I consider myself as monero most undervalued skills and I never got enough appreciation for my work,like whats happening with monero most anonymous coin but the value is toolow.But soon the price of Monero will shoot up like I am gonna be a millionaire one day.

There are different wallets for each coins so you have to pick wallets based on your holings and some wallets which supports multiple coins,One of the best multiple coin wallet is Coinomi and it supports most of the reputed altcoins.If your coins are based on ERC20 then you have MEW to store them.

The only reason panic among the crypto currency user or holders which was created by the news of banning crypto currency in China and South Korea.Now the market is recovering slowly but I think it needs atleast three months,maybe we can see the normal crypto charts after first quarte of 2018.

Most of the people are now worrying who bought bitcoins at December 2017.Because now the price of bitcoin is just half from the ATM of bitcoin which just happened few weeks before.But they are not lost anything until they are holding their bitcoins.
Yes,surely bitcoin will recover and reach new all time high soon or later at this year,so hold your bitcoins until it hit your desired or goal amount.

Blockchain.info wallet facing serious bugs problems so I don't think it is a good wallet,but I am also used the blockchain wallet before but I never faced any issues while sending and recieving coins and the fee also very less when compared to coinbase wallet.So these wallets are better for day to day usage of bitcoins.But as fas as security concerns web wallets are not safe because we are not controlling the private keys.
So software wallets or hardware wallets are best because the funds will be safe.

I will be based on where you living,in my country there is no specific taxes for using crypto currency usage so we have to pay taxes according to our income monthly or annually.So in that case we can try to use bank accounts of different persons while trading so the taxes will be less.Because every govenrment has some minimum limit per month to pay taxes.

*But I don't know it will be applicable or not for you!
