I agree, reading through the whitepaper is crucial especially if planning on financially supporting the project. ICO's main objective is to write one such document because it gives an overview of the market research undertaken to see how this new product competes with what's already available.

The sad thing is that often this document can be plagiarised but often this is a good basis to discard a project. If the team wasn't bothered to detail the product/project it goes without hesitation that there might not be an end product at all!

I agree with you, a good amount of money like this is sure to be making a lot of improvement in this guy's life and not only that but for those around him too. This is the power of money, it can make your everyday financial and sometimes health worries disappear in an instant. It really is glorious to be this lucky, and for sure this is not something that could lead to anything bad. This guy at least had some brains to even consider crypto, right  and the fact that he got lucky is super cool! I wish I had that kinda money...

As @panjul07 says this is the 'big' catch on this. That's why I hate when people advertise all of these kind of 'easy to make money' ways and conveniently don't mention anything about 'the small print'. It's disgusting that this is still happening. So easy to fall into this trap, only then to find out that your money is either lost or locked in!

Disgraceful really but I suppose there will be some people who fall for this even if its obvious this is a blatant 'phoney'.

Yh, many of us on here have noticed the improvements you guys at coindragon have made and I can only see positive vibes from everybody. These changes are sure to bring in some traffic, especially since you worked on that promise of withdrawal. Also, the promos have been coming and I'm keen to dip in 

As per the above comment there are many things you can do to earn money in crypto it is all dependent on the skills you have. You could find a list of certain jobs either temporarily, remote or permanent on many sites.

I'm sharing two of these so you can see the different options: https://jobs.dcg.co/ and https://crypto.jobs/

Good luck

While I understand how the founder through his actions may influence the market price of ETH, I think what needs to be considered is the technology this project developed. And since ETH is highly engraved in the crypto industry I think even without Vitalik the area is going to grow and prosper, though initial damage might be possible.
Remember, there's no point in attaching people too much to their outputs since these outputs may be carried on/endorsed by others, and I think ETH has reached the point where others would help take this even further...

In a way I see what you mean and also agree that even if trump wanted to ban Bitcoin, the asset is so valuable that I think many people won't be bystanders but instead will embrace cryptocurrency.

Leaving it at that then the the argument flips upside down where even Trump might come to see that banning it running away from the issues regarding regulations and that would not be acceptable for the people of America as this act would put them at a disadvantage over the people where crypto and BTC is regulated and allowed.

Nobody wants your pathetic course bro, you can't even spell, why would anybody think that you're capable of showing people how to generate up 10% per day...

that's 3,650% interest per year, which is obviously ridiculous.

Even the very best traders can barely double or triple their principle in a year unless they're trading on leverage and get extremely luck or take massive risks.

There's a bunch of bots out there for this exact purpose, like Gunbot, profittrailer, EONbot, etc. Some of them even originated on the forum.

None of these are going to be an automatic money-making guarantee, you'll need to put some work in to fine-tune the built-in strategies.

You'll also find that these programs can quite easily lose your money too if you don't set the right parameters,

I recommend taking some time to trial a few of them out before investing (most offer free trials).

Echoing what the others have said so far, I invest my USDT in Nexo right now and get 10% interest.

The platform has a good amount of insurance over user funds, and I believe it uses a custody solution too, so should be safer than the lending products offered by most exchanges.

You can also use your USDT to provide liquidity using one of the myriad DeFi protocols, check out DeFi pulse as there's a bunch on there that offer safe returns on USDt.

Just because you trusted them, doesn't mean that they're capable of actually delivering one their promises.

There's a reason why IPOs are only available to accredited investors... Because only these people know the market enough to understand the risks that are involved and properly conduct a risk assessment.

You invested your money, almost certainly with little to no investment experience, thinking you're going to get rich no doubt. Look where that landed you.

There are a huge number of far more reputable platforms out there, why would anybody use you when they can just head over to BestChange to find a list of vetted vendors?

I would personally stay well clear of platforms like LBC and Paxful, since there are ways to scam if the buyer is a complete noob.

When the price of BTC is going up everybody gets excited because it is a sign of growth and it shows that the industry is picking up pace. For most this also aligns well with increased worth of their assets while for some it may act as a good sign to buy in now that the market is showing green. It's all to do with confidence, people feel more confident overall and they start making investments in the FOMO.

Being able to get scammed can only be effective against the very greedy. This is why when people see something that gives them unbelievable return potential they go for it without thinking and in the end they get burnt.

It is tempting don't get me wrong but when large amounts can be made in a way that's too good/fast to be true should at least become suspicious. Sometimes this 'lure in' effect might not be obvious but then who's at fault for entrusting others with their own money 

Rightly said @AniviaBtc trading bots are not my thing especially when it comes to trading. I understand that people want quick money but in my opinion I'd rather carry the responsibility of loss myself rather than a bot which could much quickly lead to a loss.

Unlike a human the bots at the moment only train and recognise certain parameters, they're not adaptable and trading is all about adaptability.

To be honest I do not believe in the 'celebrity glamour' at all - they're not the most skilled, there are people out there who would deserve to be praised but you can't think of anyone who has had some videos and followers as celebrities - they're just normal people, definitely not the builders of this world, the thinkers or the entrepreneurs. Of course, with no names this can be interpreted in many ways!

In any way, the fact is that if an influencer of any kind is backing up crypto then I have no problem sticking up for these people - they probably understand more than the so called stereotypical 'celebrity' and I wish there were more people using their influence in a more productive, positive manner - the world would probably advance at a much faster rate!

Couldn't agree more with your arguments about Bitcoin not being a 'thing' that differentiates in any sort of way. The fact is that BTC is for everybody that's up for this technological challenge and wants to know more about what the future stocks and finance might be. BTC and crypto in general is for anybody either super rich, comfortable or poor - you just need some guts and a little spare cash!

Racism with respect to color, race, religion continent or whatever has no role in this new society built by cryptocurrency, so lets not involve/relate racism to literally anything we can think of.

DeFi and the use of blockchain technology to power finance is for sure a technical advancement that I believe holds the power to transform business by making them more efficient and more secure, while at the same time giving the people the choice and responsibility of their money and assets. Decentralisation is the next big thing and crypto is definitely paving the way to a better less monopolised future

That's right, if paypal is starting to support and integrate Bitcoin then this will certainly be a positive wave for the crypto industry. In fact, this alone will make other institutions alike reconsider their position of blockchain and crypto in general which in turn will lead not only to greater adaptability but also faster technology improvements. And that's worth looking forward to!
