I've heard of bounty programmes where this has happened but never encountered it so not sure how often it occurs. Seems simply way to prevent it in future is with some sort of holding system where tokens are distributed and criteria is independently reviewed by the platform.

You basically listed some of the top 50 cryptos they're not cheap at all. Yes you can still make money on them but it'd be like investing in Acer or Panasonic. They're already well established so your chances of x10, x100 is slim.

Mining on mobiles is purely a hobbyist activity, no one else would want to waste their battery life for the sake of a few cents each day. Only way I could see it working is mining periodically aka whenever you need to make a transaction it automatically becomes part of the network to mine/verify transactions. Much like with GPS or bluetooth it'll be something you turn on and off when needed.

Ripple to me always seemed like joining the vegans club and then celebrating with a bacon sandwich. Sure if you want a centralized crypto it's a great investment.

What ICOs were you looking at? I sold my NPXS coins at 0.002 they're now at 0.009 and still rising. One of worst decisions I ever made it was my moon coin!

He's got a vested interest in keeping fiat the dominator in currency, of course he's going to spread as much FUD about crypto as possible using whatever influences he has at his disposal.

From the ICOs realised so far this year I think PundiX, Already established itself amongst the top 100 and seems to continually keep coming out with positive news and the price reflects that. Also Amon and Pavo are ones to keep your eyes on in near future.

You already see people's opinions on 'virtual' money becoming acceptable. People waving their phone or debit card over a payment terminal and it magically being paid for would have never been the norm 10 years ago. Crypto has to go the next step though and force people to question why would I invest in decentralized vs centralized?

I think when the next big bank crisis happens that will be the catalyst for that providing crypto doesn't plummet with it. I'm guessing it'll go the opposite though and people will be wanting to transfer funds out of banks and into crypto.

So what was the conclusion, did he say what he did with his 69eth? Here's hoping he didn't sell it before the recent spike. That's quite a nice lil HODL he built up right there.

Nice post, I'd never even heard of stablecoin before will check it out. Anything has to be better than Tether which is pure scam, lets print 200 mil this week!

Who actually makes transactions these days in Bitcoin? It's just an asset lately and the main bulk of transactions are carried out using Eth. That can only keep the price going up in the long term.

Looking at how both had their pullbacks I'd say NEO seemed strongest, it only pulled back to a low of around $46 which was still way above what it was in Nov/Dec last year. ADA on the other hand pulled back to 15 cents which was only slightly what it was in Nov/Dec. I think ADA got pumped too hard and too early to be a viable long term investment.

Jesus christ people getting hyped up over a countdown timer on a webpage? Maybe I should create an ICO and promise it's going to be game changing. The price will plummet once everyone realises it's a load of rubbish.

Alts tend to be alot more volatile than the big coins so if your looking for stability then cash out of alts and invest in any of the top 20. If your a gambling man and want to ride the wave for max profits that's your choice but if someone asked you before you invested if you'd be happy doubling your money what would you say?

Remember, nothing is a profit until you turned it back into fiat.

If no one has watched the Tonight with John oliver show about crypto he talks about EOS and yeah kind of says it all really. Raised more capital than Facebook and Uber and what product do they have? Absolutely nothing.

The inevitable fall of EOS is going to bring ALOT of other top 10 coins with it.

Unless they clearly stated during the bounty programme it was going to be a long wait if they'd yet to develop any sort of smart contract of token distribution then it's probably alright. If not then yeah you been scammed.

PundiX which has sadly gone out of ICO but it looks extremely promising for the future. Sadly I sold all my bounty tokens when it started rising bit gutted I did now though as it's one of the few I truly believe has a valid business case. Pavocoin whitepaper is also promising.
