I am bullish on Energy Web token (EWT) because also of they are in Polkadot (DOT) ecosystem, which is starting a new noise for new projects or existing projects that are starting to migrate to the Polkadot ecosystem. I am still looking forward to EWT, to stay sideways on EWT/BTC pair. If you take a look at the BTC pair of EWT, it is starting to bounce from it fall last August 2020.

(....) How other coins calculate their value at launch? Im a programmer, not an investor or speculator.
For me, the buyer and seller will decide the price of it. If you notice on some exchanges, the newly listed coin may start at a high price and then it will abruptly fall down if no one will buy or no one will sell at a given price. Or the other side, it will start at a cheap price but if the demand is high, and buyers continue to buy then probably the price will increase.

I also tried this on NBA before. I am betting on the overall winner for the game. And cashout is already available upon you to put your bet and I think few minutes before the game ends. Honestly, if I am cashing out before, profit is already a profit, even small before, I will not regret anymore after cashing out, even I will get more profits if I didn't cash out, I will be happier since I don't lose at all.

Even we use the 'recommended gas amount? It will still affect the volatility of the gas fee? I am using Etherscan's gas tracker here: https://etherscan.io/gastracker for checking the gas fee before sending any ethereum transaction. I think if you follow the 'average' or 'high' gas fee and send the transaction immediately, it will be no problem at all. Currently, the gas fee on average and low got a very small gap.

Fundamental analysis. Some people are using fundamental analysis to identify the next 2x or more than. Just like a particular coin partnership with some strong projects or company. Mainnet or some features that is about to launch. It really takes time to do it and sometimes it is risky since not all of them are sure or guarantee for returns.

My question is this how can I make/clone this chart with other coins; same layout/tools different coin? (...)
Different indicators on the chart will not be remove you switch to other pairs or coins. But the drawings like trendline or fibonacci retracement seems impossible to clone to other pairs, especially in mobile phone. Have you tried on the browser using CTRL+A +CTRL+C and CTRL+V to selected pair.

The data shows how important for a trader to stay longer. In short, preserving capital will result of staying on the run longer. The chart is extremely true, that's why some successful traders keep saying how important risk management is and preserving the capital. The game is likely how you will survive in the long term.

Virus is spreading then. After a lot of companies starting to put Bitcoin on their balance sheet, some will follow, after what Tesla did. I will not be surprise if Netflix will start buying Bitcoin. Tesla total assets is $52b while Netflix is still $39b, very small gap.

Being a full time trader may be effective for some people. Quitting to a full time job to become a trader may a good move, but you should not think win always, as you said you are still in your 2 months. The best if you will continue with stable profits, to sustain expenses of you or your family. I know some trader who become a full time trader and they admit, it is extremely stressing job.

(....) The big fours never like each other for many years and now they have to face the biggest competition who might take over their places: Elon Musk. This man with his disruptive technologies have the possibilities to change the world in the most innovative ways while those current BIG FOURS will soon become obsolete and collapse
These 5 companies got different projects as of now. But as time goes by, for sure they will start something new. Just like Facebook, they started Facebook itself as a social media platform, and then they acquired some non-social media-related platform like Whatsapp or Oculus VR. The future projects or future features on their current product/services will be a threat to each other soon. Blockchain projects are really possible for these big companies, but I think it will take time as these companies seem likely don't want decentralized, time will come.

Cardano can easily knock down by USDT, especially if Bitcoin to dump or we will be entering the bear market. If you experienced the previous bear market, we saw the USDT really gaining a huge market cap? It is maybe because a lot of people converting their cryptocurrencies to USDT temporarily. Cardano will be like BNB recently, after few days in the Top 3 it being replaced.

And I believe this is one of the solution for the inflation rate, limited supply. If you will take closely at the chart below, the list of previous halvings was labeled and you see the price action on every after block halvings. I believe the block halving event on Bitcoin is really important, not only on Bitcoin itself but for sure on everyone, it kinda Bitcoin become popular on each block halving which the price is driven by the market, the demand. ![](https://ip.bitcointalk.org/?u=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.bitcoinblockhalf.com%2Fimages%2Fbitcoin-halving-chart.png&t=663&c=i027M6qBjXoJ8A) Check more here: https://www.bitcoinblockhalf.com/

For OP, why not use the lightning network? Agree with mk4, layer 2 soon will be the solution. And addition, there are some ways to avoid such high transaction fees, just like consolidation of your small inputs from your Bitcoin wallet, it may help to save transaction fees. If you check the thread of LoyceV, it shows how consolidating small inputs works here: [Jan 2021] Fees are low, use this opportunity to Consolidate your small inputs!.

Most of the centralized exchange platforms have fixed fee structure for withdrawal which is not possible in decentralized exchanges so the withdrawal fee depends on the blockchain network of the coin which maybe higher or lower respectively. At the moment DEXs are having expensive fee like $50 simply due to ethereum network which is just the opposite 6 months back. So if you are going to use decentralized exchange or wallet then you should know how to analyze the mempool before making transaction.
There are already a lot of ecosystems that got wrapped bitcoin, or they are pegged in Bitcoin. Just like wrapped Bitcoin on Ethereum, wrapped Bitcoin on Solana network, or the wrapped Bitcoin on Binance Smart Chain which is Bitcoin BEP2 BTCB (BTCB). I think you are talking the transaction fee under Ethereum network which is clearly expensive now even you transact with a small amount only, but there is already lot alternative, just like on the Solana which I mentioned above.

Honestly, if the transaction fee is the problem here, there are a lot of alternatives with the Binance smart chain which is far better for me. Solana for example is already proven with the recent first AMM under Solana, which is Raydium. I have tried Solana network, I have tried to do some transactions, the speed and transaction fees are absolutely superb. But then again, 1INCH is a good DeFi project, they can expand on multiple ecosystems soon, not just the Binance smart chain, it's just a beginning for sure.

I believe this is just temporary. Yep, the expensive gas fees on Ethereum are really sick, especially you are just a small trader. Trading DEX or other Defi apps on Ethereum now is for whale players.
I can't blame Binance smart chain will start to compete with Ethereum, not only Binance smart chain, a lot of alternatives these days that is more scalable than Ethereum, just like Solana which recently started their first AMM, which is Raydium. Once Ethereum will become scalable soon, people will realize how Ethereum is useful.
Identify your goal first, if you are into trading and want to save fees, then use PancakeSwap / Binance smart chain. As I heard, 1INCH will start to expand to Binance smart chain.

Binance is kind of centralized coin which doesnt suit to our crypto community, it will last for long until community realize that and choose another decentralized platform. Also, ETH 2.0 will solve all the issue we have at this time, if not then EOS or DOT will be the alternative.
I don't think it really matters to people any more. Especially to the new bunch of enthusiasts and money makers from developing countries like Indonesia, Turkey, Eastern Europe. Most want low trading fees for instant and complicated transactions. Centralized solutions are fulfilling the need of the market. (....) It will not matter in the early stage, but if it will stay forever and in the long term, it's like a ticking bomb. The beauty of cryptocurrency is decentralized and why it is being ignored? Ethereum Layer 2 is the solution, other alternatives especially Binance Smart Chain will get hammered by Ethereum soon and others claiming Ethereum Killer, just a matter of time. No hater of layer 1 protocols or other Ethereum alternative here, I can say they can somehow help the Ethereum network's scalability temporarily.

Everything is very simple and clear - users moving to Smart Chain create a demand for Binance Coin BNB. Binance is becoming a good alternative for the expensive and slow working Ethereum, but I think this is temporary and users will go back when the transaction fees decrease.
This is the main reason, I believe! They are competitors of Ethereum for Defi apps, because of Ethereum's problem, which is scalability. A lot of people also worried about Binance Smart Chain, there is some issue about being a centralized ecosystem and that's why the cost of transaction fee there is really cheap and some of the projects in Ethereum are copied and pasted to the Binance smart chain, which for me, it is already a red flag. No hate here, I respect the pump ![Cheesy](https://bitcointalk.org/Smileys/default/cheesy.gif)

REEF for me is still early to judge. Especially they are on the Polkadot ecosystem, which is very unique for early projects that will start to Polkadot ecosystem since some of the projects already started on the different ecosystem, just like Ethereum, the popular one. They are a cross-chained project, so what I will start to see is how Polkadot will adapt to the market, and then this kind of altcoins will follow.

1. What is the best process to conduct a research about Altcoins to invest in?
Cryptocurrency is evolving, there are a lot of projects these days now, just like decentralized finance (DeFi). So, the best process for me is to find a problem solver, a solution to a problem. And the most ideal is that there is already a product or it is already working, not a fan of an altcoin that is hype only, mostly in just a whitepaper and no product at all. 2. Based on your opinion, what are the top 5 Altcoins i need to focused on and probably invest in?
What do you want? High market cap now or those still in low market cap? I think it is much is to select first more than 5 altcoins, then filter it to 5 altcoins. Like you find the first 20 altcoins, then each of them you research then just select 5 altcoins that you are interested in and got your attention. What I am still researching and got my attention these days are Ethereum, Polkadot, Solana, Serum, and FTT. Just my 2 cents
