I think 50% of investment in the bitcoin would be very nice idea to go with. I mean BTC alone can make you benefits that are worth holding 10 different altcoins in the market. I mean that is just the way of representing the power of the bitcoin but I am saying that this kind of miracle does happen in the crypto currencies.

But one thing is sure, if you really keep your investment into bitcoin and different altcoins then surely in the future to come after 10 years they will be very beneficial and may just get you very nice retirement. I am still young but I would really have lot of coins stored in my cold storage by the time I will be getting my retirement. 

It depends where are you putting your capital really. I mean there are so many ways to invest in the crypto currency. For example, there is an ICO investment, there is trading, there is gambling and lending and much more!

To screen out lets skip the most risky one like ICO, Gambling and Lending!

If come down to investing into the trading then it also depends on what coin are you going to invest into? Whether it is coin like REMME (REM) which is just costing you around 0.018 USD per coin then 500 bucks are a lot of money and you can just buy loads of it!

Thus you will be able to make more money into it if it even moves by 5-10% upwards.

If you buy ETH with that kinda money then you will probably end up having less profit after it moves 5-10% upwards as quantity will matter a lot here.

Those are true facts about the crypto currency. There are more than enough temporary investors who just come here to earn some bucks, they do earn a lot but keep disturbing the market by their bearish sells and thus make everything go down. However, as they say not everyone can be wolf at the Wall Street in similar manner not everyone here can be wolf of crypto currencies. They just come here dwell in for sometimes and try to ignore the real technology. The technological advancement is the thing which drives the prices upwards actually but people here dont even care about it. We cant change the facts anyway.

With current drop both of them would be good as they are standing at the same value anyway. So if it comes to the equivalent money then I am sure whether it is ripple or cardano both of them will be ideal one.

Or instead of that you can just ask him randomly about the crypto currencies and try to take out the information from him whether he likes the Ripple or Cardano? Once you get the clue then straight away gift him that currency. I mean that will make him more happy if he gets what he always wanted to have. 

Obviously they will say the things like that only as they have to be against the crypto currency and not supporting it. They do this to create FUD amount the new investors so that they wont put stress on the banks when they will be earning millions form their investments and banks will be needing to tackle with that situation.

However, as crypto investors I dont think that crypto is harming anything here. We do have paper tracking system by banks and when we make any transaction to crypto then it is tracked and we pay taxes for the same. So I dont think there is anything bad about it.

I think it is nice to see that drop. Lolz. Im a investor and I always like to grow my portfolio in this way, buy it when its going down and sell it when it has come to higher rates and its point to sell. Then you just make that sell have more BTC or ETH in hands and then afterwards when such dips come back then buy more and more. Thats how it works for me.  

I dont care if the market is dropping by 3 billion dollars or or whether it looses 42 billion dollars etc etc.

They wil always get injected into the crypto market one more time. So just chill.

This is really grand success for the REMME project and it is getting better at its pace. I believe that REMME will reach the ICO price of 0.04 USD surely and I will advice everyone that they should be investing their money into this coin even when we are in red, this is the coin which stands perfectly in the market.

This is conclusive proof for the whole thing.

I liked the point about "check your strength before joining the bounties". That make sense really! There are my friends who keeps joining huge number of bounties and I have experienced that they end up working on only few of them and thus loose most of the bounty tokens at final counting.

So advisable thing is that you should really know what is worth joining and whether you should join more or not.

However on the other hand I do feel that joining more bounties can minimise the risk of getting scam at more number of bounties! But after all its our strength and capacity to work which decide the ultimate fate.

Good points anyway.

Yeah I am also on the same thinking right now. Medium gives all the possibilities to spread your ideas and to be honest medium is the only one which is used majorly by ICO publishers. Whenever I get into the ICO bounty or say ANN thread then you will notice that they always have medium blog rather the steemit one and frankly I never seen them publishing over the steemit too.

So the point is medium is actually getting far popular than the steemit for the crypto publications so you should try out medium for the time being.

Off course it can do better. There is one more news about the verger that its being accepted by the banks too, (will provide links if find it again). I have read about it on the forum only.

As far as pornhub is considered there has to be people who watch most of the porn and they are from the crypto currency community too! So you see if draw a vein diagram then you will screen out most of the people out and thus may left with less users of the VERGE coin.

However, for now verge is doing really good and time will come when more services will accept it too, making its presence go green.

You can checkout Swachhcoin, VoxelX and Youtoken projects. Just search the names in bounties or ANN section to know more about them. However I will tell you some glimpse about them here. Swachhcoin is from India and its all about the waste management that has become the issue for environment. They have taken step forward to bring blockchain and environment issue together. This could be huge success this time. VoxelX is medical related ICO and they have working models before they even release themselves, that could be good ICO to invest in coming month. YouToken is another platform to look after as they have very succeful bounty going on and huge community response as well.

Thats the investment part you talking about and it works for those who have good initial investment and can buy large quantities of altcoins and bitcoins. For them it gets easier to catch the profits and its nothing but long term trading/holding strategy.

Different ways include earning the altcoin by all yourself by working for different bounty programs. Thats the prime destination for most of the altcoin hunters. You work for them in their signature campaign, social media and much more ways that they have. you get free tokens and that is how you earn them

Many people do follow only BTC based signature campaigns and earn BTC in small amounts but over the time it can be huge.

For now ETH has become the realistic project and as compared to ADA it is far stable and most invested project. We know very well that ETH's use has grown heavily recently and there is no challenge to its platform. Many more came out in the market but not everyone was able to attract the investors.

ADA on the other hand is still infant in front of the ETH and many people use it for the purpose of swing trades literally! ADA can spike to some extent but it wont be as good as ETH will be.

ETH's new development updates are also out which states that they are almost finishing up the scaling of ETH network thus reducing the load on it. It could be life changing news for ETH users.

The Remme token started to take big spikes since last week as they started their campaign about its publicity.

REMME features are amazing with different application in different industry.

REMME can be used in :

1) Cryptocurrency Exchanger
2) Internet of Things
3) Critical infrastructure
4) Medtech.

All these are areas where you can expect REMME to surge in and take over the control of security of different things. With one click REMME will recognise you and thus you dont even need to enter your passwords, usernames and all the crap.

This system will create data set of PKI called as Public Key Infrastructure and thus it can help big data companies to know about the failing of securities. and thus further improvement can be made.

As the REMME marketing has reopened it is expected that REM will touch the skies soon! Join the venture now.

Why do you even want to try that way of mining at all?

Mining via phone is not profitable at all. You will end up loosing energy, slowing down your processor and most probably breaking the phone.

Hashrate you get from he smartphone processor is very very low, almost 25 H/s for quadracore processor! Thats too less to mine anything. It will take decades to mine even couple of dollars with that hash rate and increasing network difficulty.

However, you can try for curiosity some apps like Minergate to mine 10 different coins.

Indeed there is no way to get any of that in the legit hands but in the troubling hands only. KYC is for the investors who put their real money on the projects and make a transaction. KYC is made for the purpose of tracking the user transaction, banking ways and much more so that it can help government know where exactly the money is going. Thats why its okay to ask for KYC to the investors but it doesn't make any sense when they ask about it to the participants as they dont have any real money transaction with them.

REMME is breath taking project which has made giant leaps in the organisations prime problem and thats the "SECURITY".

Many times there are integrity issues in the big companies and it gets troubling for the organisation to handle the employees and their user data, password protection and identification. REMME is one of its kind who has made application that can solve all these problems with one click button! You cant resist the idea of how effectively works over the blcokchain.

For users : Its must have application and you can rely 100% of them for security. More details at : https://remme.io

For investors : Get in now as this coin is getting more attention currently and volume is also perfect. 

I am old enthusiast who loves pen and paper!
I have made a notebook for keeping every username and password safe into it. Actually it may be difficult for many people but for me I can just right down the hint of website, project etc and infront of that I right username and password in two different column. So no writing of huge links, names etc.

I like it that way and to be honest I feel it very very safe to store those things in offline mode.

Even for private keys and stuff I print them and keep it that way. Believe me thats really easy to manage that way however you should be used to it. As soon as you register somewhere you must go and write down the details first and then start using the service.

There is no solid method to find scam ICO's and many times we can just analyse them depending upon the basic stuff like their whitepaper, roadmaps and different documents that they provide. This gives us idea about their vision, project idea and how unique the project is! If it is unique one and never had been over the market then it becomes little promising but not 100%.

You can do checkout different aspects of the ICO during its bounty programs. I mean whether the project is getting huge buzz or not, whether their social channels are getting natural response or not and many stuff like that can define their confidence. Thus, you have some option to look after but they dont guarantee the 100% legit identification. Good luck.

It is hard to say that whether all the government will come to the same page or not. See, blockchain is something which is decentralised and it doesn't belong to any single country. If someday we want to make it connected in the whole world like the internet does today then we will need all the government talking about the blockchain in positive ways and be on the same page at the same time! Then only that mega change can come along the way.

Government has many things to sort out in the nation than just focusing on the blockchain and crypto currencies which are literally in the infancy stage right now. So my guess is that it could be time consuming process!
