I do agree with you that not all altcoins are bad. It is just that some people who had bad experience with one, generalize it all. They are just ranting over the forum for what had happened to them about a scam project of a certain altcoin. There are still good coins and good projects out there, we just need to be very careful on choosing them.

That is really sad reality but it is a fact that we have our own choices and some choices that we have made doesn't end up good results. Well not all projects are like that. Mostly are but still not all. I guess we just need to be more careful next time and pick projects that is different from what you have said.

Before, Developers can easily conceptualize projects that can be enticing for the Investors. You can create a certain project concept in one sitting and everything will just flow. Now, that almost all the concepts are the same, Developers are really trying hard to come up with a unique idea that will really help on solving problems. But in the end, Investors will choose those projects that are good to ne true and it will turn out to be a scam project.

I just want to ask, how did you got that BTC and ETH? Did you bought it from your fiat money or someone gave it to you? I am just wondering if you started from smaller amount then you came up with that amount then I suggest that you'll just continue doing that first then wait for the right moment to Invest. Wait until december ends. It might get bigger that time and you've learn enough about investing that time.

You've got a point on your stand about investing. Injust wan to balance it. I think what we need to do is to spend some time on evaluating the project and after you,'ve got the result then you need yo decide fast so you won't miss the opportunity. Same with trading, you need to move fast when you got the data of the market.

I think both Investors and Traders can be successful on this crypto space. It depends on how they handle their chosen field on how to earn money.  We'll as for me, I do belong to both field. I am doing the same thing when it is possible. I am patient on doing things that make me good for both investing and trading.

I don't need something that impresses me but something that will be a solution to a problem and will be there for a longest time.

We cannot really say that it was easily done because we don't know what is really happening at the background. What we are seeing are just the results of hardwork and in depth research of the team. I guess the token or coins that is intended to scam people are the one being done easily. They don't really have plans to make it long-term. Once they got your money, they just vanish, so we need to be very careful.

It is not bad to get advices from a friend especially when you trust him. But still, it is your call and decision because it you money anyway. Some analysts will serve as our guide but we need to make some research and as you said, some digging on what coins or tokens to invest.

Good projects really exists nowadays. If it will be compared to those projects that has successful ICO, I think these are better. But why these projects don't succeed? First, because of the current market situation and second, some investors were really afraid to invest because of scam projects.

I don't think there is an easiest way to make money in Crypto. All tasks, campaigns or projects needs your time and effort. You can invest but it needs huge amount of money and higher risk to the investment. You make your own research also before investing so it means you need to exert an ample amount of time and effort.

I got your point but we cannot blame those people who decided to hodl their crypto unless you have suggested something. I know you are pertaining to trading when you say that they have to sell when it is at its peak then buying it when it is on the bottom. It is also simply saying "BUY LOW, SELL HIGH". Let us encourage everyone to learn and do trading. It will make crypto space healthy and profitable.

You have really pointed out some of the factors to consider on evaluating a scam campaign. It is true that most of the campaigns right now is a failure but not all of it are scam. Some are legit and some are successful too. We just need to choose carefully where to invest and what we need to support.

Thanks for sharing this information especially to newbiew and future investors. This is a good way to prevent and somehow lessen if not eliminate those scam projects which is really a pain on the ass for us. I hope we will continue on monitoring these kind of activities so the trust and confidence of the investors will be restored.

I've heard about this malware before and I am pretty sure that it can really deceive people that are not aware that their computer was being infected. I think this is already widely spread because there are still people who are not aware of it. We should help others to spread awareness and help people get rid of it.

It is not because we are out of good solutions. The main problem nowadays are funding from the investors. I guess investors were really afraid to invest something because they'be lost too much from their previous projects.  What we need is a project that will really enticing to the investors and will surely make an impact to the crypto space so that the confidence of the investors on the next projects will be totally restored.

Nothing I guess. We do commit mistakes and errors on how we decide about something. But the good thing is that we learned from that mistakes and we will have a continuous growth. Reverting something from the past will make a difference I think but in reality, it will not help someone if he can revert all things that was already done. Move Forward.

That is really true in an ideal world.  I hope we will really produce coins or tokens that will really solve problem/s. I think this will really help the crypto space to grow and develop more.  It will surely serve the people its maximum potential to produce profit at the same time a significant coin that will last for a lifetime.

You are definitely correct.  The number of participants on a campaign will surely affect the amount of rewards that you will get. I think that will be resolved by simply limiting the numbers of participants and monitoring the participants work to ensure the quality of their every tasks. That way, rewards will be given to those who really deserve it.

This thread reminds me ng mga pagkakamali ko noon.  Lagi akong gumagamit ng pare-parehong password noon dahil sa katamaran ko, buti na lang at hindi nacompromise ang mga accounts ko.  Pero ng kalaunan ng magkaroon na ng mga importanteng bagay ang mga ginagawa ko online, dun ako nagsimulang magallocate ng kanya-kanyang password sa bawat account na ginagawa ko.  Medyo matrabaho siya pero ligtas naman ang mga account kung sakaling macompromise ang isa.  Ginagawa ko na lang ay nilalagay ko ang mga importanteng detalye tulad ng email, username, password sa spreadsheet at piniprint ko ito para kung malimutan ko man ay may reference ako sa pagrecover ng account.

As far as I know, market had been swinging from bear market to bull market and vice versa.  Both view I guess is right, and I think bull and bear market always coexist everyday.  So I guess, OP's pov is half true because he failed to see that Bull market is always around.
