Personally if i were to stake through a centralized third party, i would stake with Kraken (after they finished implementing staking for Dash).

On the other hand, Switzerland does have one of the most strict compliance and regulations with regards to crypto i heard. Meaning that crypto-financial services companies
need to comply to a lot of rules before they are allowed to operate within Switzerland.

Hello friends, I would like to invite you to discuss about IEO. I just tried it. You can feel directly 10% of the investment and the rest will be opened every day. You can suggest or comment on the listed IEO. Say plus-minus here!
I am here because I like investing and trading.

In my opinion, the shortcoming is that the remaining coins from the investment will spend 365 days to be able all to unlock.



Notes: Read this rule before investing, I don't want you to be disappointed after investing. All investment risk becomes its own responsibility.

Rules Read!!!

I believe that every good lesson starts with a good story and on this note, I want to tell you about the experience I had that made me cautious of "Get rich quick" schemes online especially those pertaining to Cryptocurrencies.

I discovered Bitcoin in early 2013 and although I didn't take it seriously at first, I was earning little money from it doing tasks online (pay for view, faucets and such), I took it more as a hobby and never intended on selling the bitcoin, I just knew in my heart that it would do great so I wanted to accumulate as much as possible without having to spend my money buying it (this was before I got into mining), fast forward to 2015 when the money doubling schemes were everywhere, I kept seeing adverts online and even though I knew better, I decided to invest in one of them (Avabitcoin) with the coins I got from my early days of discovering bitcoin, Avabitcoin was a platform where you invest bitcoin and they supposedly invest it and return profits to you on a daily basis, I decided to take the risk and invested for the first day, got back my money plus 12% profit, and greed overtook me and I did kept doing it for 2 more weeks before they vanished with my funds. I kept going all in even when I had already doubled my money.

If you want to avoid getting scammed online, you just have to follow the following:

Greed: Greed has led a lot of people straight to rekt, like my story above would have told you, I couldn't resist the pull of greed even when I had doubled my funds.

HYIPs: When it looks too good to be true, then it's probably too good to be true, when you see any investments that promise high yield returns, please stay far away from them, when you see genuine projects that offers returns, most of their returns are so low, some of them are average of 10% per annum and it's a wonder that we see platforms offering 10% and above in a day and we gladly jump straight into rekt, like I said, if it sounds too good to be true, then it's too good to be true.

FOMO: If not for the hype that Avabitcoin generated, I would not have invested in it in 2015, learn how to DYOR and avoid what others have to say about projects they seem to support, infact your mindset should be that everybody is trying to rip you off so if you always look at every hyped project with that mindset, you would have a clearer picture of the project without the blindfold of FOMO.

Rushing: Avoid rushing into any investment because you heard it's paying others, one of the virtues of a Cryptocurrency investor is patience, Cryptocurrency investments are high risk investments and you have to treat it like gambling, never invest more than you can afford to lose, never go all in on any project no matter how good it looks.


EDIT:
Click on random websites: Many airdrop websites you see these days asking for personal details are fake and many of them are just clever ways to steal your private details and use it to steal your funds, be careful of the links you click and if possible, bookmark your sensitive websites (the ones that need private information like private keys and passwords) so that you wouldn't fall for a clone website.

Use new wallets: We can all remember the recent incident that happened with satowallet where the wallet stopped working and users lost a sizable amount of funds, we should stick to the existing and trusted wallets instead of just jumping into any random wallets swe see online, many of them don't have your best interest at heart.

Repeat Passwords:  I was just surfing through the forum a few minutes ago and saw a post where a guy managed to hack an ICO website and contacted the admins and the admins just don't care, never repeat passwords in two websites so that if a hacker manages to get their hands on one of your passwords, they would not be able to affect your funds in other platforms.

If you have any similar experience, please kindly share it, it might help others (especially the newbies to avoid being scammed by shady projects out there and if I see good suggestions, I would edit this post and add them as well.
Seen some awesome answers and I would be adding them soon, keep the suggestions coming.

Note: This is not about how to identify good coins to HODL
This is about how you can be a good long term holder

1. You must have another source of income
Either in crypto space or outside crypto space you must have other source of income,there was a time when i used to rely on coins i hold for monthly income but most time they failed me because some altcoins takes more than a month to add value. You can learn trading or find a better job to get constant income for your daily needs.

2. Not all altcoins are good for long term holding
Some altcoins are too weak to have better value overtime,these coins only add value to price once in a blue moon,WHY?because the power of demand is too low and they have no working product,i belief that working product is what makes a coin have many more investors

3.HODL Only Altcoins With Real Use Case
There are different categories of coins with use cases,many use case are weak use case,for example using fashion  designer to back a token is a weak use case to me because it means you can only use the token to buy the designer wears and many will call this a real use case? no it wont do very well.
Make sure that the real use case of every altcoins you hold will be very reasonable,the products backing them up must be something that is different and will catch the eye of investors,the usefulness  must be outstanding .

4. Stay Updated Always
Opportunity comes but once as many know it,so always stay updated about crypto,read crypto news online and keep tracks on your altcoins so that you wont miss future updated or even token swaps,some altcoins i hold have already switched to MainNet and im glad i dont missed the opportunity,you can use blockfolio app to track your altcoins.

Altcoin season is what many are waiting for,even new projects are waiting for altcoin season to return before they get listed on exchanges,im sure of one thing and that is good things dont come easily,today is bitcoin turn to reign and one day altcoins will have its day as well.

Even though it has been a rough year for XRP, the asset was one of the top performers in 2017, during the last major bull run.

The question is then debated as to whether XRP could ever see this kind of performance again, with mixed opinions for and against.

I know this is kind of absurd, but anything is possible. Of course, we do all believe that XRP and other cryptocurrencies will have the right moment to repeat like what happened in the 2017 bull run.

However, in my own analysis, there might be less than 1% chance that it would happen again.

We all know that as altcoin holders, that we are after in making profits after holding them for quite a long while.

But I also know that when it comes for bull run discussions about XRP, there's gonna be a heated debate (but I think they're in favor more of the bearish run than the bull run as of this time for this coin).

Do you think XRP will repeat its bull run like in 2017 in the near future or not?

BNB was one of the most profitable exchange tokens before a while but now the value has dropped by over 50% as it's trailing at a mere $14 as of now and the same was above $35 in the month of June. If this trend continues then the BNB will lose its potential and investors. BNB was one of my favorite tokens which have crashed terribly, what do you think will be the future of this token?

every human being has their own expertise, to be honest I also don't really like the daily trade because it requires a very complicated analysis. but under certain conditions I also do daily trading to fulfill my daily needs.

Long term holding will help us to increase the demand for the coins, for long term we should choose them wisely because now there are many POS-based coins which have ability to increase the coins by staking them in the wallets. Short term trading is really very risky, which sometimes we need to wait patiently for the prices recover.

Well you need to try and see for yourself to know which one will suit you but i can bet with you that you would find day trading as a good way to make profit, you can end up losing every thing as well, i invest in crypto for long time and find other ways to sustain myself like real life jobs

Its good to buy Ethereum now because price of this are cheap now, Especially now that many rumors said price of this will increase again in 2020 when bitcoin bull run come.  Actually im hoding ethereum because i believe erhereum will recover again next year.
