I believe that some bitcoin fans may switch to the ethereum this year since its popularity has been growing but I do hope that the bitcoin will be doing as good as it did last year in terms of sudden increases in value. However we need to be careful in trading and be watchful of the prices. What we can do is to gake advantage of cryptocurriencies right now and never underestimate it.

Many community members have been claiming lately that altcoins are going to die or at least that 90% of altcoins are doomed. I tend to agree with them that there are many coins and tokens that are pointless and won't survive. Another cathegory are alts with solid foundations but won't manage to fight with their competitors as naturally there are numerous projects with same visions. But if you trust the project you invested in, there is no reason to change your mind just because someone says many altcoins won't succeed. Do your research and trust only your own judgement, because many ALTCOINS ARE HERE TO STAY!

About 18,000 Bitcoins have recently been ported into a wallet supposedly affiliated with BitMEX, a major electronic money trading platform that allows margin trading. It is estimated to be over $ 114 million, according to data from CryptoCompare. What is going to happen?

The Idiots that have manipulated the price have scared many people and people are leaving this CIRCUS:
My Alts are not recovering when BTC goes up and go down when BTC goes down. If this pattern continues I will sell and get out!

Though the entire crypto market now looks frustrating and like it will not recover again but I am sure and with my experience and number of years I have spent here, I believe the altcoins especially the potential ones will recover from the bear and it will even rise higher when the bull market starts.

We can imagine how many investors complaining big losses coming from ICO participation but for sure it only happens for joining scam project. Now it is a challenge for us to determine legit ICO's who's paying the right amount and could sustain their investors that couldn't loss their money.  As we knew,  a lot of investors getting afraid of participating ICO because of their bad experience and they might not tried it back if they can't find a good one.

Nearly all of my altcoin portfolio is in the red and in rapid decline right now which although is disheartening to see also opens up the market for some great buying opportunities. Tron for example is at 284sats as of the time of writing this which is a great buy, i just picked up some more. i also have my eye on KCS (kucoin shares) which has dipped right down almost to levels this time last year. What are you buying during this dip and which coins do you think have fallen extremely low and will rebound later on making them great buys right now?

I am looking for new trading exchanges that have a wide range of altcoins and the potential for volume to increase to something decent in the future to list coins on. A lot of newish exchanges i have found recently seem to charge exorbitant listing fees and have extremely low volumes or are just total scams. So i would like to hear your opinion on any new exchanges and whether they are worth trading on and also how much they cost to list new coins on so people can compare the different quality/costs associated with them.

Selling with panic conditions will certainly bring losses. At present the crypto market is really falling and very demanding patience to the holders. However, after the decline occurs, in the future there will certainly be a significant increase, so waiting patiently will certainly bring good luck. In addition, the fall in the price of coins is an opportunity to increase the amount of investment.

I've been looking into ICOs recently and I noticed that ORCA raised 1.5 million dollars in 50 hours during the ICO's first round. Is this typical in the current market state? What does it say about the project?

I think this is the worst time of the Entire 2018 for Ethereum and other altcoins! my prediction about ETH is It will hit low at $230 dollars in the following days for those who believe that Ethereum will rebound it is the best time to Buy more and HODL and for those already Hold just stay firm and HODL don't sell at losing point? What is your opinion about Ethereum and this market condition.

An intending cryptocurrency investors recently approached me for my input in an ICO he intend invest on. And one of my advised to him his to read through the whitepaper of the ICO to determined how credibly and successful the ICO will be.
He then, ask me how sure I am that a well written whitepaper will determined how credibly, trusted and successful an ICO will be.
I couldn't give a clear answer to the question, because I personal know that so many scam ICO have a good and well detail whitepaper.

What's your take on the ICO whitepaper, can the information therein be enough to determine how successful an ICO will be.

This is due to pending decision on ETF by SEC. Most of them are expected approval in few days but SEC is delaying their decision ETF. We can now expect the decision on VenEK and SolidX ETF by September 30th as per the recent announcement. But due to this delay people are speculating and selling their valuable crypto at very cheap prices. ETF will be definitely approved but the decision time will be delayed.

That's the reason now most ICO project having a KYC, well, as of now scammers are not punishable because of being anonymous of the team. If you have noticed their team information not all are revealed to their whitepaper. So, it is our responsibility to choose and make it sure not scam project.

I think right now is good time to pick solid project tokens. But some people are saying it will be like catching falling knife. When you see market rebounding then you can invest at whatever amount you wish to take risk. So that your risk return ratio will be good.

If you think that it is better to invest in btc because this currency has many advantages and ether which is the second in the rating. I have never invested in altoins because in my mind, it's better to have a btc for the long term.

I saw since last week eth btc and altcoins market down strongly. Any idea about that and when price will be up ?

I am not surprised. The $360 Ethereum is not as good as $500 Ethereum but it's cheaper and can be bought. Bitcoin has dropped so I'm not surprised ETH did the same.

As we are in the middle of another market slump, an investigation published by ICO-Refund.com (disclaimer - I'm one of their affiliates) in article on Medium shows how YouTubers are buying cheap fake followers, likes, and views and use the false numbers and pretend audience/influence to take thousands of dollars for a short “review” from many of the ICOs, even the biggest ones out there, including HyperQuant, LaneAxis, Ubex, Credits and more.

You can see the influx of shady Youtube ‘influencers’ in the Telegram groups of the ICOs, trying to get paid directly by them for a “good review”.

The funny thing is that how some of them are complete frauds with no real media influence and are literally stealing the money of the ICOs.


It raises questions about the competency of the projects at least in their marketing departments because it is more than obvious that some of the Youtube channels they have paid to be promoted on are fake. It also makes you wonder about the other methods that ICOs use in order to make their projects more popular and exactly how much of the money that their investors have contributed to them is wasted for corruption and bribes, buying videos, articles, and ratings from shady and unknown individuals.

One of the discussed YouTubers has been made 114 or so paid Youtube “Reviews” within a timeframe of a 1 month which is crazy.  The author of the article estimates that the Youtube channel owner has made about $170k for that period and he has tricked most of the bigger ICOs at the moment to pay him to “review” their project in front of his fake followers and viewers.



What's your view on it?
