As an investor, i cannot participate in IEO conducted by small and new exchanges. The main reason why IEOs are preferred to ICOs is because they are more prone to scam than ICOs, and this is because the exchange validates its legality with their reputation. Imagine Binance or any top exchange conducting a scam project, it will jeopardize their integrity, and these exchanges do not want their integrity in question, so they only offer legit and promising projects IEO. New exchanges do not have the reputation to validate a project, they are just after the profit, SO they might promote a scam project either intentionally or unintentionally.

Next year, there will the scheduled halving of Bitcoin. For people who are still new, the term can be a little dizzy. To make it clearer:

In case you are wondering, this means that the number of Bitcoin issued per each block, mined every ten minutes, will fall from 12.5 BTC to 6.25 BTC. In other words, this reduction of 50% will cut the block reward given to miners in half and further slow the production of Bitcoin’s finite supply. Source.

So this has something to do with the supply. The rewards available for miners is effectively reduced into half...or 50% less. This can slow down the production of more bitcoin coming from the side of the miners.

And this is the reason why some analysts are predicting that after and even before the scheduled halving, bitcoin can experience a great surge or a real bull run. Do you see this as a big probability or just another hype?

I was perusing another forum today with a long running cryptcurrency thread. To my non amazement they're still debating the nature of the whole thing in the exact same way they were 2-3-4-5 years ago. The same people are waiting to be convinced. The same people are trying to convince them.

This strikes me as a complete and utter waste of calories. I'd rather let people believe what they want. Me convincing them won't help anyone. They're not going to convince me of anything. My attitude is - crypto is here. You may as well sit back and see what happens as nothing I do, say or listen to will change it.

Are you still embroiled in debates with friends and internet creeps or have you let it slide?

I have been in here from December of 2017. This means I had never experienced a complete bear market before. So I want to ask the veterans: Has the dip passed? What is your opinion of it?

While I was just reading the conversations about Satoshi in another post, a question stuck in my mind

We know that with Genesis Block, Satoshi revealed the first Bitcoins. And from that day on, the blockchain network began to work actively. Satoshi disappeared after a while. (I don't think he'll be back) He left behind a great legacy. But if all the blocks are actually viewable from the past today, somehow, since all the transactions have been followed since the first blocks, couldn't Satoshi be found?

I'm not talking about a simple thing, I know. But if you think that the first mining started with Satoshi and he didn't change a lot of wallets, it seems to me that the wallet can be traced. And either the first blocks after the first Satoshi disappeared could give us some clues.

Wallets known to be Satoshi can also be followed, for example I'm sure they will give you a few hints. (All these conversations, valid only if he is still alive, of course!)

Actually I'm in a confusion with the fact that Bitcoin's value will be reduced or increased. Bitcoin was worth 8500 USD a few days ago, which has now fallen to a low of 7800 USD. But many are hopeful that this will increase the price of Bitcoin at the end of June. What's your opinion?

Can we still expect more from bitcoin?

For the past few weeks now we can see that bitcoin shifted up little bit and its more than $8000,this is really great for we have waited for a while for improvement on bitcoin.  But are we going to see more of the increase as its going or it will run around $8000 plus?

Hey guys, new to the forum!
Thinking of doing a short-term investment for fun, about 1 month or so. Was thinking I should buy either Etherum or Bitcoin Cash. I use Gemini so not all coins are available. Wanted to get some opinions from you vets

As per info on the internet I heard STO are better because they are more secured than the rest but the most trending one is IEO ,its better version of ICO and it works and we still have good ICO projects as well ,its all in the investors hand ,choose wisely

Please my fellow crypto friends I need answers badly about ICO and none ICO projects . my question to you all is
Why are projects with NO ICO always do better than the ones who were actually funded from ICO ? Projects with no funds or whatso ever should be the ones facing what ICO projects are facing excluding scams ones

I've been holding my altcoins for years now and waiting for bullrun to make a better come back but I'm yet to be confused that this is the real bullrun since many altcoins don't bother favouring from the bullrun,what is going on?

The crypto market is getting new people everyday, Because the crypto coin trading system and the high price of bitcoin. Btcoin is being popular over the world. After hitting 19K USD, Lots of people came here and more people is coming in the crypto platform. But, is it good news for us or bad? What do you think?

"The cryptocurrency market has rallied for the tenth weekend in a row. Bitcoin (BTC) shot up about 3 % on Sunday, with the asset breaking past a short-term level of resistance. Despite this occurrence, which most analysts see as a sign that the ball is clearly in the court of the bulls, some are still wary of an imminent correction."

What's your thought? Do you think that bitcoin has still its own fuel to boost up or nah?
Bitcoin is near in 9000$, will you still hold your coin or trade it now because it might fall down?

Have you ever been scammed? And what will you do if your bitcoin get scammed?

Few years ago, it seemed to be the beginning of 2013, I did not remember clearly, I've ever been scammed for nearly 20 BTC, I funded a gambling site, my account got frozen without any reason few hours after I funded.

I could do nothing except crying.
