You should checkout the Ubonium, Youtoken, Sociall coin, DIW token and my favourite but already launched over the exchanger is JNT tokens. I know you asked for the ICO's but JNT is worth investing into as the project is doing just great in terms of its developments and the roadmap as well.

Speaking about eh first three ICO projects, they are well managed by the team and presale for them is already successfully accomplished. I always believe that whenever the pre sale soft cap is achieved then the ICO is already one step ahead towards the success. Thats my thinking but anything can happen in the later stages. So be cautious and try to find the answers by yourself. These are just personal choices that I have made. 

Talks of the rich bastards!

Obviously we cant do anything in this world without the smart work now a days. There is no way we can make it upto the savings, good assets and some bonds on our names! These are old stuff now, there is no hard work anymore and what we have is just smart way of investing our money and then earning some extra bucks. Those who think that they can live on single income then they are most welcome to show how they live their life! I mean at least I cant live on single income which is indeed insufficient.

OP says about the cutting down of my expenses but I am sorry about that because if I am earning money then I am earning it to spend not to store! I know the shit that there could be emergency cases and stuff but no thank you my insurance already got that covered. 

Better get our asses at the work and do smartest work possible. Savings will always be there automatically when we hold things for long period of time waiting for our coins to pop.

Perhaps the exchangers will become the place to do the money laundering? I mean still depends on the what kind of regulation they will impose on the exchangers. If it just tracks the transactions happening at the exchanger then it wont be much useful as our addresses still remain the anonymous. There are services like bitcoin mixers where we can get the anonymous characters unfolded and no will know we were the one who did that transaction. Correct me if I a wrong with this ? There Will always be different ways of making the whole transaction anonymous and thus keep it untraceable. This is as long as we do not transact in the bank accounts. However the later is still the same case as if today.

I dont believe in the statement made by Erik Voorhees. Why would I do that even if I have bought the bitcoin in December month? Just because we have bought it highest prices doesn't mean that bitcoin is not going to recover to that prices again ever. There is whole life ahead man and BTC will cross such huge prices again and again many times!! Selling at such low level would get us pennies and cents and nothing else MR Erik! How we can expect to re-inevst it and make quicker profits. LOlz. Is there any other option in line. 

About the OP's visualisation, yeah things are not new in the crypto currency. These kind of drops are always there and thats what I am telling to Mr. Erik's tweet here. This is not new, BTC will catch the fish again and will rise to ATH. Better hold.

It is not abandoned and neither forgotten but its being ignored in the long run. The thing is we hear about the LN a lot when the transaction fees starts increasing and people around the crypto start arguing that the fees are huge and we need to workout the way to minis the fees. Then rest of the people say this can be done with the help of LN and the whole buzz gets started with that one. Now the values are dropped as you said and the fees too so people are not arguing about it at all.

They dont care about the fees anymore because they dont have pay anything now. They are just behind the prices now! Now what buzz you will see is why bitcoin is dumped so much and what the hell is happening with it. When will it rise again and stuff like that!!!!

So its all about the time. Now if by the December the prices grow back to the ATH then there might heavy transaction and fees will increase again to avoid the congestion over the network. This will again make people aware that fees are gone wild and the cycle repeats !

Ignorance, thats all.

Lol. Yup its not an easy call and it will never be. Bitocin be like this always since long time and people have been experiencing bad up and down moments in the bitcoin world. However we dont have to worry about it in the bigger picture. On large scale or industrial level the bitcoin will the biggest asset in the future once it gets approval from the government and when it becomes the utility token really. That would be the day my mate when we will see real power of the bitcoin. What do you think why bitcoin has upsurged upto the prices that we see today? Its just because of people are being stubborn on it and they are relying on it beyond the limits. If we keep this optimum level of investment forever then I am sure it wont be difficult to see green market soon.

So the greenery and reddish trend is all hypothetical in the bigger picture -always remember this!

There is no doubt that undervalued coins like this can benefit us in the long run but they also carry the huge risk of not getting pumped due to low trading volume. Such coins may become the victim of the pump-dump strategies and believe me such coins do not last for the long time on the list. But yeah some of them with nice project ideas can be jackpot during the long terms of investment.

For now the dips are pretty good if you are considering to invest your money and any coin that had ATH above $1 and now is trading at lower than $1 value is perfect choice of coin. This also include coins like Ripple, ADA, Siacoin  etc. They had been far greater than this but are down to <$1 so you can rely on them for your profits.

May be not. Or may be not yet!! The bitcoin is still far from reaching such cause because bitcoin itself is not a regulated organisation where it can make its own decisions whether to donate or not. Also people are not going to do so on purpose or willingly because they themselves dont know how to it. Unless and until there is organisation specially made for this cause, I dont think there will be any progress in this regards. There has to be some middle party who can get the BTC payments as donation purpose then convert it for the different cause fulfilment. However I am sure government wont allow it to do as many wrong things can arise from this one. So I am not sure if that will happen so soon or not.

Thats really good news for us and that is what we are awaiting for since long time now. Hope that we see them ever growing because we are getting such green zones many times since the January month however somehow it is not lasting for long time. Its better that we keep an eye on the market and keep hoping that it wont fall down. So far the rise has been above 6% since my morning time and thats is really really pleasuring my eyes at this very moment.  
However there are many regular members who think that its just temporary one and the down trend might Strat soon. But I dont believe them because bitcoin has been down since long time and the market is so much condensed right now that it can burst open to ATH by the April end.

Intersting article but it doesn't tell us how this will happen. I mean they are just comparing the whole scenario with what happened in the last year's prediction and how bitcoin started growing over the time. However, lets spread the egg and do the positive talking about bitcoin getting spiked this year too.

I am believer of time. With the time the cyclic changes will do happen with the bitcoin. Due to low cost bitcoin will get more investors and they will flood the investment into it causing its value to go upwards. Now this is really natural thing to happen and in the long run market will have so much that it will grow eventually. So lets stick to it and hope that this turns out to be true.

Its all about the Siacoin, ADA, Stellar, NEM and TRON. I ma pretty sure that as this thread will keep growing you will see mostly people love ADA, TRON and NEM with their undervalued portfolio. Obviously these coins are already in the Top 10 list and that grabs more trust on it. This gives us the more surety that they will somehow turn out to be dollar investment soon. I always see it pink sheet stock exchange as it is worth cents and it could turn to be more than dollar in very short period of time.

I am focusing more on ADA and NEM this time. They went pretty hot last year end and I am sure that they will again up surge this year too. I am just buying more with the current dip. Thats all from my side.  

Whats going on currently is not the FUD but its for real but natural dumps. Also its not just about the ETH market really but it is about almost all the altcoin and the bitcoin itself. Everything here is interconnected and unless and until BTC market recover all other coins will see the same sort of dumps. ETH is no other exception but also getting hampered into this mess. The market however is supposed to recover this month and few instances shows that the market is green but not fully shown the signs of recovery.

This is something different and I can read that its all about the BTC thats moving the other coins along with it. We cant help it in anyway but we can just hold and expect the market recovery as we all are in the dumps stage and loosing our investment at very faster pace.

This is useless to discuss because bitcoin just acting nuts at this time and no body is having real answer on how and when the bitcoin will bounce back to its normal position. However, we can hope that it will come up soon and meanwhile keep investing which is our part of duty that we must keep doing while the bitcoin is down. Obviously who wants to miss this train again ever? If we invest then we will make it more stronger economy and thus we can keep it going on forever. We are the basics of the BTC and ALT values. Let the time do its part to recover the BTC and bless us with the profits.

There should be news like, some country accepting the bitcoin and making all the exchangers within the country completely legal. People can buy the BTC over the counter as well as they can use it to buy products and services within that country. The same news which was published earlier in the 2017 and then how the prices were spiked was noticed by everyone. We just need bigger countries like USA or UK to accept this major change and then you will see how people will put loads of money into it and thus making huge changes in the bitcoins value. Thats really possible because it has happened earlier.

Considering the rise in the prices from 2009 to until todays date any month that we compare will have the same result. The order will be in incriminate only as the prices have always been increasing all the time since then. This is what simply explains that how we are progressing perfectly in terms of growth and development of the bitcoin. This fact we should consider in our investment and be patient about it forever. This is the simple answer to those who are scared of holding their coins for years. But if this chart is represented then we will come to conclusion that the coin always keep rising and rising no matter what happens in the whole year. The ups and downs are normal however it always grows and we cant see its effects year to year.

Indeed. This is really worth questionable and I smell the fishy things already. I mean if this kid can make the ICO then surely the market will get filled up with junks real soon. Yeah off course that can happen because what would be the level thinking for this coin? Will it be worth to beat the scalability issues in the coins he has published? Is he going to make real use of his so called gaming idea? And who will invest in his ICO if it is worth nothing but just an kiddo game? Also I am little skeptical here that there must be oldies behind this game and who just gave the name of their kid to make him popular? I mean its really not worth trusting how did that happen and whether its true in first place or not.

Good words by the Joe Ross! Agree that we are really small in front of the market and we cant always win the situation. However considering all your facts I do believe that I am not doing it for emotional satisfaction whatsoever may be the situation. The thing is I am very keen in choosing my earning methods and trading stands the last chance in it. I usually do holding trade with the bitcoin mostly and thus to do that one needs to be not emotional type so that in any situation we can just hold the currency and make profits over the time. So my satisfaction lie in the money making and for emotional turbulence really. I dont even have enough money which I can just spend spare on the satisfaction. Lolz.

Yeah those are general points about it but I have found whole new significance for the decentralised network. The government can not interfere with the bitcoin at all and this is the first time when they are not able to make up their mind whether to invest into the BTC infrastructure or not. They are not able to decide whether to ban it or not and if yes then how because the bitcoin is not under their direct control. They can ban it but they cant delete it. So its kind of shield that bitcoin and other crypto currencies are having thus making it safest investment considering the governments stupid moves against it.

You might not see it as significance but you shod because government is the devil here who can eat the crypto world at anytime.

People saw ETH going from $10 USD to all the way up $300 USD. After some time passed people started getting hyped about the whole ETH situation and they felt bad that they were not on the train which was worth 10 bucks earlier and then it turned to 300 bucks later in the time. So they did not invest thinking that they will never reach the higher prices. However ETH spiked all the way to 1200 USD and thus made everyone startling about it. Now ETH has grown its fan following base hugely thus making it far far popular and I am sure that after the fall of ETH all the way down to 380 bucks today it will show huge investment opportunity to all those people again. The break out will be soon out for the ETH and it will be more than 1200 USD this time and that is gonna happen by the end of April month only.

Off course it is not the end of crypto currency and it will never be coming so soon. Its just been decade since the crypto has launched and its going very well in its development techniques.

The fall of the bitcoin from 20K to 6K as you say here is not the bad thing or is not unexpected thing because this is perfect correction in the prices of the bitcoin. The correction is perfect because bitcoin was hyped too much and the market was not able to withstand such big bull run in short period of time. Thats why we ended up with eh bearish trend and I am sure there is nothing wrong with it. So as always just stick with the crypto and you will find your right spot soon.
