Listing on exchanges these days is highly competitive. Yes, a project can list on any, but such exchange might not be on CMC, let alone being a global exchange that has good 24 hours volume. If any listing will be allowed, then it had to fulfill some criteria and this differs from individual exchanges. However if the project is good, then finding a good exchange will be much easier.

Change is an inevitable factor in the crypto space and it is evident on bounty. The situation of bounty is not like it used to be. Whoever is just coming in newly or as been around for a long time, but took a break like the OP, need to relearn a lot of things. The world is really changing, which means bounty and crypto in general, cannot be stagnant.

If I have any regret whatsoever, is to see a good project that I should invest in, but there might not be fund to do that. This has happened to me several times. So when I see those coins perform well in the market, it pains me. The same had happened recently again, which makes me to see it reoccur several times. Although, I believe I will one day overcome such challenge.

Not everyone has the privilege of having a favourite exchange, except you are only into trading, in which you choose where to trade, but for a bounty hunter or investor of crypto projects, you will inky comply to the exchange in which the project you are dealing with is listed. Although, if you are the type that trade on decentralized exchanges, you can do that yourself or persuade your project team to Liston decentralized exchanges.

It is better to be involved in a viable project, than be without direction. If a project whose coin has been lunched, is backed up with a useful product, no matter how small it is, it has in IRS own little capacity added value. It is better of than a lot of projects with nothing good to point at. This are the type I am on the lookout for. Our exposure in the crypto space ought to have made ours wiser and to know what we really want.

If people lose confidence in a coin, they will not want to invest in it and such coin is likely going to die very soon. Ethereum on the other hand, is a coin that has we on the trust of so many people, therefore, it is arbitrary and not normal for such people to claim it is not a good coin.

@OP, I have seen your project and I know where you are coming from. You truly have a good idea, but I feel you easily do that, without organizing any form of fundraising. Also, with such service you are rendering, there are ways in which you can get more money to keep developing the platform and that you yourself can honourably earn more.

This is why whoever will be investing in cryptocurrency should be a mature person. Someone who will be able to take some risks with his own volition and without dragging anyone into it. Even if you want to invest in any coin, you should first make your findings and ensure you are doing what you know something about.

You do not try to take advantage of every coin that you see selling low, because you never can tell what will happen. Well, the best thing you should do is to always do your research before investing. Also, the risk involved in investing is also inevitable. However, do what you enjoy best and you will gradually learn what you should and achieve your aim if you do not give up.

I appreciate the initiative of some projects team, who now decide to bring in and lunch good projects with real use cases these days. With what is now happening in the crypto space, they are now being spurred to do what is right.
If this should continue, there will be more real projects than the fame one, with the eventual eradication of shit and fake projects.

Most of them want instant gratification, which most times, make them to made some unimaginable decisions. They are the type that dump their tokens below  ICO price, after lodging so many compliant. They are the ones that keep asking "when exchange". They will never bother themselves on what happens to the product, because of their lack of understanding on how proper crypto project should be run .

This is how a trader should act, because for such, news is important. It bus news that a trader buys and it is news that he sells. So every coin is backed up with such. Which means that being vigilant and having firsthand information is very essential.

You are right mate, but the beauty of this technology is the blockchain itself. Therefore, we cannot have cryptocurrency without block chain. Also, talking about decentralization, it is not exactly the problem, because it could have been regulated, if they wanted to. KYC is one of such measures.

So far, we have only seen so much hype on Libra coin and it seems the hype is now dwindling.
At first, the news was almost allover, but I rarely see much about it and that is to tell you that some people are already losing interest it. The team also seem to be relaxing. Perhaps it us the marketing team that is not functioning well as supposed.

There are no strict rules per we. At least those who manage to participate in it still scale through and it is not as if they are given special preference over others. The issue is that, it is highly competitive on bigger exchanges, which is why the fastest finger takes it and you need to be conscious of the network or server you use in browsing.

There are projects that give bonuses as much as 50%. The worst part of it most times is the private sale. Which is why they do not disclose the bonuses or the price at which the tokens were sold to the private investors. If I may say, I believe 30% bonus should be the maximum. It can still be reduced to something much lower, depending on how the team views it.

If you have your wallet files on external hard disk, inasmuch as it will be connected to the internet whenever you connect it to your PC during use, it can still be hacked. However, a wallet does not just get hacked if there is no linkage of its private security details, because it is not the same as a hardware wallet and neither is it the same as an offline wallet, except you have the files of an offline wallet on it.

Apart from them being competent, some of them are even shady. There are few bounty managers I can trust. That is why I am not surprised seeing some of these managers get red trust.
I have seen so many amateurishly done spreadsheets. A spreadsheet without heading and not properly organized.

Coming to the crypto market to invest, without the prior knowledge of the volatility of crypto currency or knowing about how volatile it is and yet investing without accurate information is like gambling. Which means that you stand a chance to loose what you have invested. Therefore, knowledge is very important.

If there is bullrun and you are trading, you might not be able to truly test if you are a good trader or not, but bearish market on the other hand is a through assessment period for a good trader. However, it is still safer to trade during bullrun, because there is lesser risk of losing one's fund.
