Tips for Not Being Stolen: -Create new accounts, safely, and move any funds from any existing accounts to these new accounts as soon as you are in a place to do so. (Rushing does not help, doing it safely is the most important thing.) -Get a Ledger or Trezor Hardware Wallet (safest!) -Never enter your private keys, passwords, sensitive data on a website that you were sent via message -ONLY unlock your wallet when you want to send a transaction. Check your balance via https://etherscan.io/ or https://ethplorer.io/-Do not trust messages or addresses or URLs sent via private message. Always verify information w/ a secondary source. -Install the Chrome Extension that will warn you if you attempt to navigate to a malicious site -Install the MetaMask Chrome Extension -Install the MyEtherWallet Chrome Extension

Traders lick their wounds, pundits suggest the price correction is a ‘healthy’ one, while a flurry of mainstream media articles hints at the bursting of the cryptocurrency ‘bubble’ yet again.

Bitcoin, Ripple, ethereum and other cryptocurrencies are falling today after uncertainty over crypto trading in South Korea triggered a panic sell-off of the virtual currencies. Cryptocurrencies were off to a pretty volatile start this year, but reports of South Korean regulators cracking down on exchanges shook the entire digital currency market. The Finance Minister Kim Dong-yeon reiterated that a ban on crypto trading is still very much a “live option”.

Anyone who says NEO isn't a risky investment is lying or fooled by the Hype train. NEO does, however, have a huge potential to be a very profitable investment. I consider it to be one of the riskier coins in my portfolio, but I believe in the tech and will continue to support the project. A few reasons why it could be an amazing investment:
-First Chinese blockchain, Chinese tend to favor their own tech over Western tech (see Alibaba vs Amazon) -Smart Contracts similar to ethereum but without having to learn a new coding Language. Smart contracts can currently be written in C# and Java -NEO's automatically generate GAS when they are in your wallet. GAS can also be very valuable in the future.

A senior official at the People's Bank of China is reportedly calling for a wider ban on services related to cryptocurrency trading in the country. Pan Gongsheng, vice governor of the central bank, said, to prevent market risk, the government would apply more strict regulation to end all cryptocurrency trading-related activities and services. The news comes via a Reuters report today, citing an internal memo reviewed by the news agency. While it's not yet clear whether the reported memo will become immediate policy, the news indicates the continuing severe stance taken by China's top regulators towards curbing cryptocurrency speculation and lowering perceived financial risk in the country.

First, try to understand why the coins crashed (political, news, Exchange was down, etc.).
Second, remember that these coins are CYCLICAL. ups and downs (just like in the Stock markets) are normal.
If you can make money exiting some of your positions and feel exposed, then sell. If you are able to wait, and see where it goes, hang in.
If you are confident the coins will recover, then BUY MORE - They are on sale!
Good luck regardless!

All the major countries will eventually require laws to identify traders, buyers, and users of cryptocurrency so you need to eventually start using peer to peer business exchanges that don't require identification of users. The people who want to know who you are and what you do don't want anonymity so you need to find ways to hide without using any of the major exchanges. All this maneuvering by nations, countries, and the major finance powers to limit and control cryptocurrency was expected. Internet currency must evolve in order to survive and maintain the goals of anonymity and decentralization

On Monday, Cointelegraph reported on how Korean authorities would likely stop short of an outright cryptocurrency exchange “shutdown,” but had introduced fines for users unwilling to use personal identification data on crypto exchanges in the country. Pundits suggest the price correction is a ‘healthy’ one, while a flurry of mainstream media articles hints at the bursting of the cryptocurrency ‘bubble’ yet again.

Hardware wallets are typically as safe as isolated minimalist computers can be - the code is widely auditable and on the Ledger side we're using smartcards to add additional protections against physical tampering and possible software exploits (the keys live in a specific area of the operating system that's only accessible by following a given code execution path, guaranteed both by software and hardware)
When using a paper wallet you trust the environment you're using it on both when generating the keys and when spending - it's possible to be safe if you audit the key generation code carefully and maintain a perfect digital hygiene when spending (always sign offline on a non updated computer to avoid malware, then broadcast), it's also easier to use them on ETH than it is on BTC and BTC alts but still nowhere as convenient as a hardware wallet, especially when the device can be used for multiple isolated tasks beyond just ETH (ERC-20 tokens, other cryptocurrencies, SSH, GPG ...)

Ripple coin seems to be having a lot potential. And it seems like it can be purchased for the low cost right now. not sure how many people would be into this. but it seems like the alt coin such as that. it can be one good option for the conversion of the investment. like say steem as well.
Ripple is a currency that will grow a lot in the future because:
1-Payments are cheaper: since Ripple does not belong to anyone, the cost of transactions decreases.
2-Payments are faster: Because transactions are automatic, complex transactions can take place in seconds

Invest in these currencies ..
Aragon (ANT) :Aragon ran a very successful ICO, which at the time was the 4th largest crowdfunding event in history, and the second largest in the blockchain space with only ‘The DAO’ raising more than Aragon’s $25 million. Essentially, it is a platform for creating decentralized organizations. Given its ICO success and functionality, the ANT is sure to rise in 2018.
Stox (STX): Moving further down the market cap rankings, Stox is a prediction market platform. The concept behind it is very similar to other projects like Augur and Gnosis, although there are significant technical differences between all three implementations of the idea. But when you look at the market capitalizations, there is a stark difference. At the time of writing Augur is valued at $185 million while the circulating supply of Gnosis’ GNO tokens, representing a little over 11% of total supply, is valued at $67 million.
Diw (DIW) : DIW plans to introduce a global directory where account holders, be it individuals or organisations, will be able to list their services and expand their reach. The directory will feature a smart rating system increasing trust and transparency between account holders

If you’ve been in bitcoin for a few years, then you know how volatile the price can be. Bitcoin’s had several bubbles. The beautiful thing is that, so far, after every bubble price has recovered and made a new higher high. So yes, in theory, if you time it right (which is very hard to do), and buy on panics and hold long-term you’d have made great returns.

Expert’s predictions and opinions is another popular way to stay informed about future market action. Bitcoin blogs, including The Merkle, often write informational pieces and publish price analysis.

Yobit investbox pays out interests correctly. But it is although important to take care of coins that are listed there. If interests are unrealistic high, then only for the reason that they are sold. When you do a little research on the market, then you see that some new cryptos (of course not all) are on the market with a price of one satoshi and with low movements. So i guess, they are only baught by investors, who want to get the high interests.
