He 100% absolutely deserve it. The founding of Ethereum platform has brought blockchain into massive adoption to the whole world. Ethereum is the first platform that actually introduce blockchain and cryptocurrency to the "Big and Famous" company.

Whether you are investing or gambling does not have any correlation to whether you are doing long term or short term trading. It depends on your method and technique when you are trading, not just in crypto but in all market.
About crypto market, yes it has extreme volatility, most of the investor may only speculate, but you can still do low risk trading if you doing it right. And of course crypto market still have bright future.

Trust me if you do that, you will keep lossing. You will do panic selling when you see a correction that you might consider a "huge loss". My advice if you want to do crypto trading, do daily trading, because the whole crypto market is still very volatile. But besides you need you need to invest your money, you also have to invest your time on that.
Otherwise just be a hodler. And believe on your investment.

Asking this kind of question, you will get 2 types of people responding to your question.
First one is people who is promoting their campaign or their own portfolio. Their reason is quite simple, if you and maybe your friend buying the coin, they will gain profit.

The second one is people who will suggest Bitcoin and Ethereum. Because these coins are the highest market cap coins (at least until now). And there is no need other reason to buy those two.

If you want to hold for at least 1-2 years. The top coin is absolutely better. First of all never forget Bitcoin and Ether.  Both will be your last saviour if thing's gone wrong. Other than that, you might consider buying these coins, for lower risk investment,
- NEO
- LTC
- XMR
- EOS

But of course don't expect too much from those coins, 2x or 3x might be your best gain,
Then these one is for higher risk investment
- ADA
- IOST
- ONT
- IOTA

These are undervalued coin, higher risk higher profit. Might be 5x or 10x in the end of 2018. After all you need to do your own research though

To be honest almost all crypto Altcoin, security token, even Bitcoin is so volatile. Moreover the effect of project news to the price of token is the nature of cryptocurrency, even maybe in other investment. But if you think that the pump and dump is somehow, unusual, it could mean that someone is manipulating the price. Maybe the dev themselves or a whale, also means the distribution is not prevail.

Depends on the amount of your current Ether. For me myself I will still keep Ether in my portfolio, but I do not keep many of them. Maybe only 15-20% of my whole portfolio, if you hold more than 30% Ether in your Porfolio, my Advice is to buy something else, an undervalued coin in Binance or Bittrex. IOST could be your first choice, listed kn Binance, market cap is keep on increasing.

Simpelnya masternode itu, kita hold 1 coin dengan jumlah besar biar coinnya nambah (dapat airdrop/dividen dari developer coinnya), buat lebih teknisnya lebih baik cari di google biar lebih paham

Buat keterangan lebih detil,  syarat syarat, ROI dll

I really do not understand why people are still believe in Tron. This coin is absolutely pump and dump coin. Seems like the gossip about Tron CEO manipulating the market and holding huge amount of Tron is true. I really can not wait to say 'see, I have told you' to the Tron supporter.

You are too obvious to be new comer in crypto buddy. There are already a lot of alternative for smart contract. The top of these list will be NEO, a crypto supported by Chinese government, the Asian version of Ethereum. Or you can use Waves, when we talk about features and network performance, I think waves is the best, they just need more marketing and adoption. The last but not least the cheapest smart contract ever XLM, the good thing about XLM (Stellar) is cheap, nothing else.
But, take my advice, you can find many smart contract platform as Ethereum alternative, but nothing compared to Ethereum. It is the first and the best.

Haha, from my point of view, and in my humble opinion Tron is just a pump and dump coin. Seems like the gossip that the owner own large amount of the TRX and he manipulate the price is kinda true. I sell all my tron last February, and I don't think I am gonna buy it again, like ever.

There are some case when ICO distribute the unsold token to their team and mostly to the company board, it is to support the liquidity (I think). But most of the time the unsold token/coin is burned. Why it is burned? It is simple supply and demand rule, when the total supply is less, the company hopes to increase the demand

Hi, I have written a lot for personal Blog and Company, and some of them are about Cryptocurrency and ICO.
You could give me 1/2 trial job, and if you think I am suitable and good asset, we could discuss about fee and payment after that.

Send me PM if you are interested

Nah ini sebenernya masalah Merit Abuse ini masih rancu kalau menurut saya.

Jadi poin saya sama seperti post OP, apakah memberikan Merit kepada orang yg sudah memberikan layanan jasa kepada kita termasuk Merit Abuse?

Misal kita butuh research suatu altcoin, kemudian kita minta orang buat cari info seputar altcoin itu, kemudian timbal baliknya kita kasih Merit. Atau misal kita pake jasa Escrow, Bounty Manager, atau Twitter Audit pro, terus kita kasih Merit ke akunnya, apakah itu termasuk Merit Abuse?

Hal-hal seperti tadi masih sering terjadi, dan jika berargumen pemberi Merit akan berdasar pada "itu kan merit mereka dan hak mereka mau ngasih ke siapa". Padahal ada fitur "Trust" buat hal-hal semacam ini.

---

Tapi buat yg pendapat OP yg ini,


ini menurut saya sangat salah, mungkin OP gak pernah cek akunnya Mod Indo, dan mungkin emang OP gak pernah mau buat post yg berkualitas, atau memanfaatkan thread bantuan Merit di local board maupun di Section Global yg buanyak sekali.

Mod Indo sangat aktif malah, karena saya suka cek akunnya buat sekedar liat Signature Camp apa yg diikutin, sama isu apa yg lagi hangat di Global Section, mereka pasti tiap hari awasin thread-thread baru yg ada di Local Board kok, entah dengan komen atau sekedar hapus/lock thread spam.

Dan soal Merit, maaf bukannya pamer atau sombong, kalau OP liat akun saya, saya dapat 54 merit itu benar benar asli dari postingan, waktu sistem Merit awal mulai, akun saya masih Junior Member, yang mana Merit bawaanya 0.

54 Merit yang saya dapatkan ini ya hasil saya buat Post/Thread yang menurut saya Berguna, dan juga memanfaatkan Thread bantuan Merit di Local Board dan di Section Global. Untuk informasi saja, di forum ini saya tidak mengenal siapa siapa apa lagi yg sudah senior. Jadi yg memberi Merit ke saya, ya memang mereka merasa post saya berguna. Walaupun Local Board Indo masih perlu banyak pembenahan tapi orang-orang disini gak Seburuk yang OP (dan mungkin beberapa dari kalian) pikirkan.

Saran saya lebih banyak membaca, lebih banyak belajar, bukan melulu belajar gimana cari duit lewat Crypto / Bitcointalk. Belajarlah bagaimana kita bisa berkontribusi buat perkembangan Crypto, khususnya di Indonesia. Kalau kita tidak bisa berkontribusi dari sisi teknisnya, ya minimal dari sisi non teknis seperti komunitas, dll.
