Ethereum will definitely reach higher highs. But I don't expect this to happen anytime soon. Yes, it may reach ATH in dollar terms, but it won't be because Ethereum has made something drastic, it will be due to its price correlation with Bitcoin. So if Bitcoin goes up, Ethereum will go up. I prefer holding the former.

I am holding a bunch of alts and I like a lot of them, but I think we don't have any clue if there will be any surge in alts. Nobody is talking about alts now. All eyes are on Bitcoin and Facebook's Libra. I won't risk with the alts in time when the BTC price is pumping every day.

I think most of the advisors do nothing. They are just getting paid, so their name and reputation can be used.
I think they do research the project that they agree to be associated with, but they rarely do any contribution.

I try to stay away from every project that has terrible branding as Bitcoiin. A serious company will never piggyback another company/coin and try to steal the name.
These tricky deceptive tactics should point from the beginning that this project will have shady activity all the way long.

The Libra will be much more like a stablecoin. So everybody, who has a facebook account will buy it in order to fascilitate day-to-day spendings, because it is much more convenient than bank accounts.
There will be no point at buying Libra for investment. We wouldn't be able to make money with it. Facebook and the consortium will do that.
You post pictures - fb win. You use libra - fb wins.

Volatility is not a bad thing if you want to earn money buying and selling coins and assets. It is a bad thing for mass adoption.
But if you are a small player, do you really need mass adoption? There are the volatile periods, that enable you to lock profits and there is also enough liquidity for a player of your caliber and league.

ICO hardcap cannot be any indication about the quality or the success of a start-up.
The only thing it shows is the social proof by the community. If it is for the right reasons, then the project really has high chances to succeed.
But if it is due to expert marketing and snake oil salesmanship by the team members and their marketing contractors - then it will be a shitty project with chances of success close to zero.

Binance is joining the game, because simply this is a big market.
Also, having a broad set of products and services, this will attract more traders that want more complex solutions for their trading strategies.
Binance, Bitmex and Coinbase are undoubtedly the leading dogs in the space and neither of them can afford to be step behind.

I don't think there will be any difference and innovation to regular IEOs or STOs.
It is just a marketing trick to attract attention. If the project is good, it will raise the money with or without first-ever terms and branding.

No, we can't trust Big Social for data privacy. And no matter what they promise in their whitepapers, they will find a way to get more than they offer. This is how enterprises flourish.
Whether we participate or not is irrelevant. The masses are on social and they don't give a shit.
What we can do is develop our own ecosystem and spread the word, so it can become bigger and stronger.

If you are a regular facebook user, they already have much more of your data than your KYC - locations, friends, etc. If you trust them with that, is the bigger problem I think.
And adding some personal documents to the list is not making much of a difference.

Libra won't be competing with Bitcoin. Just as the US dollar or the Euro is not competing with gold.
Yes, there is allocations from the first to the latter and vice versa, but they have totally different applications and use cases in the world.

Video call is way too much in my opinion. I undestand the need for a selfie with the document and the piece of paper with the current date. A lot of people are using other people's IDs to cheat the system. I just don't get what the video call is giving more than the selfie.
The number of scammers that can photoshop and edit a picture to mislead is very low. Scammers are dumb usually.

I think that Libra is the killer of everything else except Bitcoin, and privacy coins like Zcash and Monero.
The network effects of Libra are just tremendous. If I can use Libra for my day-to-day expenditures, Bitcoin for a hedge and store of value and Zcash/Monero for stuff I dont want to be knows, then why would I need anything else?

I guess as much as they did for the first one. Greed is a universal human trait.
The owner of one of the most well known pyramid schemes - the russian MMM, created a website that is a new pyramid scheme. It is written with big red words that it is a pyramid scheme. Nevertheless, it has attracted more than 1.5M dollars in investments.

No matter if we boycott it or not, there will be a massive user base for it.
Decentralization and privacy has its niche market share and we will continue to serve that.

The way to find IEOs is to check every exchange manually. I tried to find a source combining it all, but there is not one present right now.
We have ICO and STO aggregators. It took 4-5 months after STOs became wide spread for agreggators to emerge. I guess the same time will be needed for IEO aggreggators, too.

I highly suspect that alctoins may not join the party this time. The general sentiment towards alts is pretty low. Most of the attention goes to Bitcoin, Libra, STOs.
Even ethereum is nowhere to be heard lately in a significant way.

I am looking for a few criteria when assessing the team.
First, I want to know they are real people with experience and connection. LinkedIn is mandatory for me.
Second, the team balance is important. I want to see a team comprised of both tech and business people.
