I love the timeline. The history of Cloudbet is impressive. I like how you guys places the points of reference (ie Ethereum network launch) in the timeline. Very nice. I also liked the sportsbook. Way to go!

You posted in November 2017. I hope you sold quickly afterwards. Unfortunately, a lot of people were making some big investments. I think we are past the "Capitulation" phase of the chart below, and entering the "despair" phase. I hope I am wrong. I think going forward BTC will be a vehicle for wealth, not a means of obtaining it. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fblogs-images.forbes.com%2Fjessecolombo%2Ffiles%2F2014%2F02%2Fstages_bubble.png&t=663&c=x65mmCHETQM--w)

Don't bash me, but I would invest in an s&P 500 mutual fund like VFINX . Boring I know, but I think that BTC will go a little lower.
Consider the recent indictments from the FCC to EtherDelta. Unfortunately, this is only the beginning. On a side note, I can't believe they got off on a 400k fine. Lol. They are making millions. Good for them.
I think the highly speculative froth of 2016-2017 is wearing thin. Of course, I can say that, but doing it is actually harder. I am still hodling. I am not, however, putting more money in.

The deposits and withdrawals are automatic. No KYC docs needed. The odds are in European format.

This is new.. Betbit.com now offers not only live dealer games but recently added a sportsbook as well. All of the major leagues are available; NFL, NHL, Golf, Soccer. Tennis Boxing etc. The casino bonus of 100% does not apply to the sportsbook activity. Also, I found that you need to clear the wagering requirements on the casino side before you transfer funds to the sportsbook. In the last year, they have added 8 different software providers from around the world and now a sportsbook. https://www.betbit.com |Bitcoin Casino and Sportsbook

Hello, Hi, Can you please clarify something? It looks like this might be an affiliate based site. I do not see any images of the live casino games. Please clarify, thank you. https://www.betbit.com | Live Bitcoin Casino and Sportsbook

Excellent question. I am a true believer in cryptocurrency. However, this last year taught me that coin utility has to be realized. Too many blockchains that are selling useless coins. I do think we have an implosion of crypto. I think BTC will continue to do ok, and maybe eth. All other's I have sold.

hey guys, I know there are a lot of new interoperable coins out there now. There's a new one called oneledger. Aion, Blockcollider, and ARK are others I have looked at. It seems that many of the new ICOs that are launched in 2018 are either solving the long confirmation times or cross chain communication issues. Oneledger is attempting to solve the issues of how blockchains talk to each other. "A Universal Blockchain Protocol Enabling Cross-ledger Access through Business Modularization”.
I read their white-paper, and loved the underlining tech. The team as well. TG DrWhite10

I am also looking forward to Mainnet mining. I have to say that the ico process to date has been flawless. I would have like a better execution if Mainnet release. I originally thought they would have Mainnet up by the ico date. Anyway, looking forward to it.

QuarkChain is the hottest new ICO from the computer scientist Qi Zhou. A former Google computer scientist and an expert in high-performance systems. Quarkchain unique goal id to create a high capacity peer to peer value transfer with smart contract capability. All with a secure and easy to use. At the moment Quarkchain is holding an ICO for the public. Since I participate in quite a few ICOs I thought I would give you an update on the ICO process and the top five features of Quarkchains ICO. - Crowdsale Metrics: Quark chain is offering 20% of the overall 10 billion coins in the resale and public sale. Of those, 4% is allocated to the public sale. QuarkChain is raising a total of $20 million. I have noticed a trend of ICO's offering less and less to the public. Quarkchain has done the same. Personally, I would like to be able to buy more during the public sale, but due to the popularity, I think it is still a great opportunity. The reason why the crowdsale metrics are on this list of the “Top 5” is because of the number of funds raised. $20 million is a small amount to raise in this environment. This will eventually translate to higher potential multiple in ROI.
- Telegram Centric: Previously I have participated in ICOs that use Telegram. Quarkchain has a great automated bot native in Telegram that guides you through the process. In order to participate in the whitelist application, you must have joined the telegram group. Depending on when you joined, you receive a certain amount of points depending on when you joined. I’ll talk more about that later. Receiving your authorization code was also performed on the telegram bot itself. When the white list first opened the bot took a while due to the congestion. Participants have 2 weeks, so there was ultimately no need to hurry. Other than the initial congestion, the process was smooth and easy.
- Fair Distribution: The founders of Quarkchain did something I liked. They wanted a supporting group that is knowledgeable as well as involved. They also are giving slight preference to early members of the telegram group.
- 5000 Max contributors in whitelist: There are approximately 82,000 members in the QuarkChain Telegram community. If all were whitelisted the individual allocation would be an extremely small amount. This would translate into $48 allocation a piece. For such a small amount, I would probably just buy on the exchange. Is it worth it to go through so much KYC process for just $48 in allocation? I think not. Quarkchain team made the decision to limit the whitelist to 5000 participants. They are having a lottery system to those that qualify.
- Transparent Process: Quarkchain’s team are almost always available on telegram to answer any questions. Well, at least most of the questions. Of course I did not ask any questions who’s information was available in the posted section or white paper.
All in all, the Quarkchain ICO rates pretty high compared to others I have participated in recently.

Good for you, that's great. I got in to NEO a little later. I like NEO as well, and I think now is a good time to buy. I don't know if it will replace ETH, but it's the only one IMO that might.
|
|

I like the idea of NEO, but the GAS value is a fraction of NEO value. You would have to have NEO for 20 years to make your money back (or more now).. ARK, on the other hand, is a DPOS, which gives you ARK tokens. They give out about 7-9% a year. This is probably the goldilox range.

I'd say hold on BTC and ETH, maybe a hand full of others. Other than that I would not be so in to hodling.

I am a true believer in the technology. That being said, I think that the speculation is crazy. Some of these low-quality coins with no utility are going for way more than they should IMO. At some point, the utility and the price have to converge.
Even though it's hard for me to believe a lot of these ICOs are valuable and do believe in the greed a lot of investors have. I am investing more on that idea than the actual coin itself atm. Otherwise, I will stay in ETH and BTC.

I agree, Most of the coins now are worthless. They take advantage of the people who do not know any better. There are a couple I do like. BlockCollider, Algorand, QuarkChain, and nOS. BC is already over (as of 2 days ago). The others are still available. Check them out, and merit me if you like them.

Yes, I agree with you. They will open up mainnet for mining today (supposedly). I am already mining on testnet, and looking forward to getting some early main net mining. Hopefully, it will be more profitable. I think it will between main net release and being listed on exchanges.

I like the Go Chain and Open Platform. Quark Chain looks promising.

The allocation was very small. Only $385 personal cap. This was super small. I think the team will have a good chance to create something unique.
There were 70,000 applicants. Only 4500 contributors total.
