I agree with you that the market has been tricky recently but i think with the huge events like btc halving and eth 2.0 on the cards in may and july respectively market will pump and i think it will be super pump not just a upward movement but perhaps parabolic movement that too on monthly charts in other words we can see huge monthly green candles.

If i have understood your point correctly, yes it is very important to hire people who are not only competant but experts at relevant tech and at the same time they should complement the basic idea behind the thoughts and plans of the founder and create a coherrent environment for product development that result in practical product for the masses.

This sounds like the same statement, 'bitcoin cash is the real bitcoin' even if they say or market their coins in the name of top coins no one is going to accept their argument. To be honest personally i have not ever considered etc in my list of holdings, i try to stay in real projects like btc and eth and try to stay away from look alikes although they often give good pumps but it can go away quite quickly as well.

If by re-investing you mean lending btc to others and earning return on it by locking the btc personally i do not like the idea, i prefer to keep my btc in my hand 100 percent of the time so i can make my decisions or if i need money i can cashout to fiat and if i find opportunity i can buy more.

I think ripple and other alts will definitely grow quickly but only on their turn and i think it will take more time especially if we see previous bull cycles mostly btc is the first mover and after it reaches newer highs only then the bullish impact is transferred to other coins, this trend can continue this time around as well but personally i want to see btc and alts moving together andfor that i think market volume should grow massively on daily basis.

Meme based projects and coins are fine as they give a different perspective and let people smile but to be honest they do not have much for the longterm and do not provide practical value to the crypto space so rather we need serious projects that can solve real world and human problems or make things easier for everyone already we have seen that now no good projects have come up in last almost 2 years now so it is high time we again see good quality projects coming up again.

I think holding low cap coins and tokens is not bad but you have to be patient because usually these alts are the last to move, personally i like to stay more and more in btc and eth only, recently i got some ada as well becuase i liked the project and prices were very attractive as well and i think it will continue its upward trend from here on, similarly i have like 10 to 20 percent of other alts and tokens which i consider risky holdings but in good bull run they can provide me with massive profits as well so they are worth holding as well.

I gave up on this exchange long time ago, especially when there was shuffle in team and it seemed like there is no real ownership of the exchange even the telegram admins who were very active and vocal went completely silent, i prepared myself that looks like now i will not get anything out of this exchange, my major tokens on the exchange were cobs and then small amount of couple more tokens, now that the withdrawals are open i will try to withdraw my tokens, i hope i will succeed.

Personally i am not a big fan of hardware wallets and the biggest point for guys like me is we can forget where we placed it and just loose all our coins in the process because loosing a hardware wallet is just too easy, someone in your home can throw it in trash or some maintenance guy can take it with him or you can simply misplace it at a too secret place which even you dont recall later, i think it is an online technology and based on software and programming so we need more secure online wallets rather than fancy hardware wallets that are easy to be stolen or misplaced.

If you are that insecure with your investment then i think crypto market is not for you, just deposit your money in bank savings account and enjoy safe profit for life, crypto market is for technology enthusiasts and risk takers, it can definitely result in loss but profit potential is also huge and not seen anywhere else.

No doubt the last 15 to 20 months have been a nightmare for bounty hunters and i do not think that many have hit the jackpot by making anything decent out of all these campaigns this was basically because of downtrend in the market and icos also lost the hype resulting in failure to raise funds, now that market has talen a turn and bull trend seems to have started i think bounty campaigns will get better as well in next few months but we still need patience.

I think bigger coins like btc and eth should have a hybrid model where both pow and pos can merge with a new and unique algorithm that should be energy efficient with no physical equipment requirement other than computer or smartphone and does all the work like the networks require in pow algorithm, this will address the fans of both pos and pow, i do like pow more myself but expensive equipment, high energy cost and massive carbon output has just out weighed the benefits of pow and there is need for improvement.

It has been a massive success that is why governments are allowing it, unfortunately the progress regarding govt policy and other regulatory procedures has been very slow which has hindered the mass adoption but almost all countries are now working on it and next 2 3 years are going to be massive regarding mass adoption of blockchain technology as well as cryptocurrencies.

I think people still need to learn that crypto market is not get rich quick scheme yes it does yield massive returns especially when you get in right at the start of bull trend but fomoing in when prices are already near peak is never good especially when you are not in for the longterm then you have no option to accept loss and move on.

Well risks are always there whether it is bull trend or bears dominating, keeping your assets on a third party platform always involve risk but we have no option i guess and we have to trust otherwise we cannot be in this business, it is just that we should choose good reputed platforms preferably registered with the authorities in the country of operations.

I would definitely not complain because i have been a longterm holder and supporter of Eth and i am sure that as soon as Eth 2.0 roles out parabolic run will start and i am personally eying a new all time high of 2500 to 3500 for eth in this new bull cycle which already seems to have started, so lets stay positive and hodl.

I like your thinking and i also try to do the same but the fact which cannot be denied is that if you found a good project you should take the risk and invest as early as possible, never forget that bitcoin's initial price was only 0.01$ while Eth was sold for 0.70$ only. So early birds always take the worms.

I think this industry is part of dark web and will not make much impact for real impact we need implementation from bigger corporations, companies and even retail stores that are found in every street and also coffee snack stores. When we achieve that level we can easily say that crypto has reached mass adoption.

Most percentage of the community here just does what you have mentioned but i think there is one extra way where we can create some extra income by creating some nice content that can include reviews, analysis or feedback about different coins, projects, platforms and even market conditions, some of the platforms where we can earn some crypto for our original work are steem, publish0x and crowdholding etc.
