Most of you are probably gonna learn the hard way, like I did, by making a lot of mistakes, but maybe keeping in mind a few tips can help you reduce the learning time of stupid mistakes:

1. Your goal is to earn BTC, not the tether/fiat. Trade BTC/Alt pairs, not USDT pairs.

2. Do not buy something that has been multiplied by 2 or 3 recently.

3. Paid trading tips, pump n' dump groups, Twitter, or other sorts of paid groups are not going to give you the right suggestions, in fact, their main goal is to squeeze some money out from you! Use Twitter and other such platforms only for remaining updated, not for decision-making.

4. Always remain at least 40% in bitcoin, there're a lot of times when bitcoin makes a crazy move and alts get a heck of damage.

5. Never fall in love with someone coin only, otherwise, this love will damage you in the end as much as real-life love.

6. A time comes when you feel like all other alts are getting pumped up except for yours, in that case, just hodl. It'd be too late to jump onto some other alt.

7. If you're buying something that's about to get hard-forked leaving two coins (out of one) in hope of a pump, don't forget to dump it like 2-3 days earlier. It's a trend now, a pre-fork dump.

8. If something is obvious, it's obviously wrong. -Joe Granville

9. Good things come to those who wait. -Al-Quran

10. Never FOMO/panic. Never think "if I hadn't sold it, I'd have been sitting on a million". Never cry over the past, only learn from it and don't repeat the same mistake.

11. In crypto, the good thing is, you can always make a good comeback by being wise, even if you're left with 10% money you initially invested.

12. If you think no one's more unlucky than you, then watch some Youtube videos of victims of Bitconnect.

13. Wait for quality trades (good chances), don't just rush up to trade your bitcoin or dollars again after every successful profit. Decrease quantity of trades and increase the quality of trades. Don't trade while you're exhausted (or too much happy on previous trade).

14. If you think you missed the chance by not buying something, don't be blue, try to find some other opportunity. There're always some golden opportunities available in crypto.

15. Trade in levels. Buying and selling, both, do it in levels. This reduces the risk greatly.

16. Try to "bitcoin cost average", if you buy something at 0.02 BTC price, and it goes down to 0.015 BTC, then buy more of it at 0.015 BTC so that you can get into profit faster once it recovers.

17. Make one fully-researched decision without FOMO'ing out, and once you make it, stick to it. Finding absolute bottom to buy in at or absolute top to sell on at is pretty much impossible.

18. Very good and interesting analysis by @cy_stats on Twitter of altseason: https://pbs.twimg.com/media/DZstNL-XkAAKFZN.jpg

19. Always keep in mind the following pattern of BTC & Alts, as seen in past years:

*1) If bitcoin goes up heavily, all alts suffer.
*2) If bitcoin goes down heavily, all alts suffer.
*3) If bitcoin goes up slowly, only low volume alts suffer.
*4) If bitcoin goes down slowly, only volume alts suffer.
*5) If bitcoin stays sideways, every kind of alt grows.
*6) If bitcoin stays sideways for a few weeks (4+), all alts grow and low-volume alts go "absolutely" crazy.

20. Do not use leverage unless you're really experienced.

21. I personally do not include the coins I've in exchanges in my portfolio. Remember, as long as you've your coins in the exchanges, they do not belong to you. They belong to the exchange and you should always remain ready for a hack/loss of those funds. If you're not trading something, it's way better to take it off the exchanges.

22. If you're planning to have a big position in one of the coins, make sure to thoroughly investigate what's going behind the scenes (by joining its Discord or Telegram), else, you might find something suspicious later on which will be very annoying (and might result in a good loss).

23. Book your profits, don't be the one just "hodling" around. Hodling, in my opinion, works out when you're planning to buy something and then leaving it for a few years. If you're trading, it's not an option for you. Don't just sit back and look at your coins getting pumped up, remember, until and unless you take some profit off of them, that pump is actually useless for you.

24. Buying an altcoin that just entered a high-volume trading platform is simply a big gamble. If you're really planning to buy something which you think has dumped enough after a huge pump AND after getting listed at a high-volume trading platform, you better be ready for something awful. It's a pure gamble, by the next day, it can either get a huge dump or an awesome pump. I'd rather play a roll on FortuneJack instead of going for a trade like this ever again.

25. Before you buy something new, don't forget to have a look at its total supply & circulating supply. Moreover, make sure that there's not going to be an extreme addition soon into its circulating supply; like unlocking of founders reward or private investor coins can devalue your coin/token too much.

26. FOMO buying while the trend is overall downwards is stupidity. Place a buy order at around 3-6% less than the current price, there's a huge probability that it'll get filled.

27. Keep your portfolio as much diversified as you can. Don't just go "all in" in anything!

29. Never blindly follow anyone. Even if you join any paid trading group, make sure that you DYOR before jumping into any trade.

Now that crypto is allowing us to transact globally I am questioning if we are going  to start to see more scams happen between countries. Do we need more compliance companies to step in to help major scams and illegal trafficking?

Full report: https://ciphertrace.com/articles/q1-2019-cryptocurrency-anti-money-laundering-report/

it is impossible to see a pullback at this point to that magnitude without any major negative reason. the biggest thing that happened was a $40 million dollar hack that happened 2 days ago and it didn't even have a tiny negative effect on the price and despite that price continued rising and went above $5000.
so you can only imagine what kind of negative news we need that is bigger than what we already had to bring price down that much as that weird clickbait article was suggesting.

Mostly they have need to pick some good coins to trade a good outcome. Because an experience traders need to learn every trade that they do to, to become a good trader also.

Infidelity is unforgivable especially if you are married and have vowed in the eyes of the law to be with someone. It is also destroy a marriage or relationship.
Can you forgive them and give them another chance . Because of the welfare of your children if you already have and you do not want to destroy your family. Or you want to separate because you're hurt..

I understand what you mean but Im a have a online store and I have proof for my request I don't say just give this money just like that

As Binance failed to prove it is safest exchange also there is less features compare to Kucoin . Kucoin gives revenue sharing for KCS token in exchange more over its also having IEO and other option compare to Binance Kucoin giving more option . What you guys think about binance alternative??

Banks are against crypto because they see crypto as a major disruptive agent to their existence. Banks are centralized and intends to gain total control and power over the financial transactions of the people whereas crypto do the contrary by given back the power to the people to own control over their own transactions.

Why those countries in that list? When you say friendly, do you mean the country government is open to implement crypto based companies or because the population is involved in crypto?

The altcoin or bitcoin marketplace has accrued representing absolutely a continued age, which is round 2 months. Instantly I look the marketplace is not active or close in position. I select to wait. I am confident the marketplace desire move ahead consume anew. So I desire wait representing instantly.
