You should stick to strangers as advising cryptos to relatives can be harmful for your relationship. Imagine if the cryptocurrency they buy dumps or turns out to be a scam and they lose all their investment. They are going to blame you for it and thats likely going to affect your relationship with them. Encourage others to research the crypto market and the technology behind it.  As for investing, once they are educated let them make their own decision.  Each person is unique and their intrinsic motivations are different than yours.  So be cautious when providing advice. Crypto currency is the way forward; there was a time it was Gold, now it's crypto. If everyone invest in crypto I believe they can be able to have the kind of future they want and crime will be less in the society. Their money, their decision.  Education is the most important thing you can do.

I experience investing on ico before but the value of their coins just decrease to 50% after it was been released on the market. Anyone want big and abundant profits, investing in ICO is the one of the way. But you should still be careful scam can happen anytime, many who take advantage of this moment. You should get used to the forum to know the characteristics of ICO that scam so you can be aware of this. A 2-fold bonus can be earned if you participate in ICO but there are risks and that should be avoided as much as possible. The best thing to do is just hold your bitcoins today because the value prices in the market is low and if you really want to invest on altcoins then try to read the platform first to determine if their coin does really have the potential to grow. But at the current market investing can be very risky. You must have to deeply study about the project from all sites specially whitepaper & the team who is managing that ICO. You must have to concern ICO ranking sites & peoples review about the project.

I tend to hold some of the rewards I received from the campaigns I joined with because as the time passes by, some tokens yield and gets a higher value and if that so, better to think on exchanging them to dollars.  I hold it for a few months and sell after that. I hold token for months because I know the campaign that I joined is successful and the price of it will increase. Holding them is good as long as no one gets to know your private key so that it will not be stolen away. But sometimes, due to in need of money at the moment,cashing them out is the only option rather than borrowing to others. On the other hand, the reason why I cashed out some rewards because I want to diversify by investing in other altcoins and may convert it to fiat currency for my daily budget.

I preferred is airdrop and bounty campaigns because it earns some money and very profitable. Always show deep interest in investment & in crypto market for shortterm, and i know if we don't have any knowledge about altcoins even we don't have stratugies to make money then it is valueless to invest in alts. Airdrop is very profitable is the project is legit but some airdrop is trash always gather information about that project to aware scam. Bounty Campaign is profitable also as long as your campaign is legit and have a lot of proof to be trusted and a long side they should have whitepapers, roadmaps and blockchain technology. You need to study it carefully. Knowledge will earn you money, but investing and trading blindly, you may win today, but may not tomorrow.

The global economy is inevitably moving towards a digital eco-system. Almost everyone comes to electronic money for the purpose of profit and investment, I think that no one can come to electronic money for the purpose of payment, so the current electronic market is always exciting and complex. From investment to money transfer, everything is going paperless.The newest and most promising addition to the digital payment sector is cryptocurrency. Bitcoin is getting a really bad image now because people is using it to commit fraud and this is not helping with bitcoin trying to recover. I just hope that this will come to an end and even if I know that bitcoin is just being used, those who haven't heard of it is getting a bad idea about it.  It can be a great investment if handled correctly. It surprises me every now and then.

Most of my choices now are long term, and even when I make short term speculations I do them with coins I am interested in long term, so the chances to lose are lower. Invest wait for first big exchange and sell half of coins, if it will go high. And start to search some new ICO to investment. Before you invest in a certain coin, you already know why you did it and because of that you also know whether your investment in such a coin is for long term or short term. When you invest in Bitcoin or Ethereum or Waves for example, you know very well that all these coins will not easily go down and will acquire more value with time. So it is better if you hold them long term. But when you invest in coins that are not as solid as the ones mentioned, you may do so because there is a very big announcement or update that will for sure cause a big pump. But when the pump already happened, time to sell is the best thing to do. Panic and commissions can lead to loss. When we look at the examples in the past, we have witnessed that many coins multiply in the long run.

First think what I'm looking for it's product, than market and potential grow. Than review the team and adviser, how much money gathered on presale.  A project that can be apply in everyday developement. And mostly those team that are hardworking to the succes of their project.  The current market is different from the market in the last year when new ICO projects grow out of control. Given the current situation, a good project requires a whole new product and technology to compete with other projects. Before investing I am doing lots of stuff because I had very bad experience in few past ico’s. Therefore it is your own risk to take.

I believe crypto will survive, hence i'm planning to keep investing in it and hold my coin for a very long time. Crypto has a very great future as it is making the world more global and create a secret transactions.  Recently governments trying to move against cryptocurrencies. But I believe they will find a way to move along with cryptocurrencies. Yes, I keep investing in high potential projects. and I exchange my coins when I need money. But I will not leave crypto field. I hope that all my cryptocurrencies will continue to grow. I also believe that Bitcoin and all cryptocurrencies will change the future for the better. I will think always that crypto will always exist and last longer through the end. Crypto will always survive because it is full of high technology.

Researching about the project before investing is the best thing to do , for your money will not go to waste , give time and effort more on understanding a certain ICO assess it and see its potential before investing. Keep investing in the right ones, as long as you invest in the tech with real world usefulness, be rest assured you will make your profit on the long run.  I mean you should be more careful if you want to invest in ICO. not all ICOs fail but there are some ICO's that guarantee and have a more beautiful future. if you invest in a good ICO and have a promising future then you will get a very big profit. Failure should be a lesson. In the end it's your own decision which you have to make.

Although there are many successful projects and profitable for investors but at the same time in the cryptocurrency market too many ICO projects are too bad. Choosing a good ICO project and investing in this time is not easy. I advise investors to allocate reasonable capital to invest and limit the risk of their money. ICOs are a great way of earning income, however have to be very cautious on what you put your money into, as there are posibilities of making. In  my opinion investing in the top altcoins is much more better than investing in ICOs. Because I think it would be a mistake that not having some reliable top coins. Just always do research before entering some investment and always remember that Invest only you can afford to lose  and don's all your eggs in just one basket.

The best investment is made with ethereum, many tokens are running on the ethereum platform and are being bought with ethereum. You can make some money with ethereum investments. I hold 15-20% of my crypto savings in Ether. Another 30% - in bitcoin.  Since I consider these assets are resistant to market fluctuations and this is a good way to save capital during drawdowns. I use Ether for trading on the IDEX exchange and for participation in ICO.

Yes, I always watch ICO ratings. These ratings are made by smart people with a lot of experience. They often write about the fact that you need to pay special attention on something and where there can be risks. Of course, the investor makes the decision independently, but such ratings pay attention to fraudulent projects. Most of these website are getting paid with every post or good reviews they posted,its for the project's hyping promotions so more people will know a lot about this ICO,which is unhealthy they are making up people's mind even the project is trashy,the best way to find great project is to do your own research.

I've been using Bittrex, and I think it's very user friendly and easy to figure out.  I recently opened accounts at Livecoin and Coss because they support currencies that Bittrex doesn't.  I've found them to be very user friendly as well. Here you first need to know what kind of coins you will trade. On the popular stock exchanges, there is no majority of altcoyins. I consider that the best exchanges for both beginner and experienced ones are: Bittrex, Binanse and Hit btc. True bittrex is closed but the other two will be enough.

It is profitable of the project could be develop by the team. Mostly when an Ico finished and listed in the exchange so happen price dumps. Just buy only if you are sure with the coin to develop and can follow on the roadmap of the project. In my opinion, buying newly listed coin is a very difficult decision. Not all coins perform well in the market even after the ICO. You might have some loses if your not careful. But there are also new coins that increases their value after they have been enlisted. I think it all depends on the developer of the coin and its uses whether it will be profitable or not.

HOLD, dont sell waves in this low price right now. Waves is very promising and very strong coin. In future we ll need very much decentralized excahnges and it ll be very big oppuruntunity for Waves holders. The developers have very ambitious plans - they plan to achieve the fastest transactions among the block projects. Thanks to the new protocol launched in December, Waves already has 6,000 transactions per minute. Waves Tokens play a key role on the platform, because they pay for all actions on the platform, so this crypt has a fundamental price support.

It is mandatory for us to know the company profile, mission vision and purpose of the token. Consider the team and advisor of the company, if token terebut much supported by famous plateform then it is a good opportunity to invest, at least I can say that it doubles or triples the amount that I had invested but it really takes time because it takes weeks and months before a certain ICO be listed in an exchange where I can exchange the tokens I bought in ICO. But i also experience a ICOthat I invest in is a scam, so i think its better if we should study first the background of the ICO that where going to participate.

Low price excite the experienced and low price on the other hand scare the hell out if the new investors. So the excitement during low price of bitcoin and other cryptocurrency is totally depends on who is buying or selling. A nd also for all the holders it keeps them panic but the important now was the bitcoin and all altcoins growing fast to move up as we can see teh volatile movement. It may a good time to invest and stock up your portfolio; however, the decreasing value of many assets in the market is affecting the industry and the market in such a negative way that there has been no active business in the past several months. However, knowing that episodes and happenings like this may come in the cryptocurrency market at any time. Part of venturing in it is the understanding that this may happen, and so, we should ready for times like this. That instead of worrying and panicking, the better move is to plan ahead.

Both sides have their own advantages and disadvantages. As you said, sometimes it happens like that when the dumpers will sell the token even cheaper than what the ICO offered but practically, it becomes good to buy during ICO when investors get to enjoy huge percentages of bonuses. It is also advantageous to buy during market as some ICOs may turn out to be scam where investors don't receive any token after buying. CO & Pre-ICO are always more profitable then market. But same rules not applicable for all. Because all the ico coin when come market investor just dump. It's the struggle period , those coin back by good tam & community can standout rest of all coin try but fail. So it's better to wait till market launch.

Definitely worth it! But I would distribute the money equally on these two assets, because both projects look very promising this year, they also have a strong product and team. NEO is likely to reach $ 1000 this year, as the demand for NEO to invest in ICO projects is on the rise and is likely to reach that level soon. I think if you are a long-term investor and do not want to see NEO prices every day, then NEO is always the best investment at this moment because the opportunity is still and you should seize the opportunity. Neo has a very nice project and the project team is very nice Neo will provide a good increase but it is hard to say the same for the ADA.

I'm not sure how long it will take, but it may take a long time for the market to recover. As cryptocurrency is just an emerging technology and a wide range of people and business are still devoid of it, I don't think the recover would take a long time. But the depression in not yet over and we need to wait to see how low does it goes.  Crypto market rules will be completed by the end of this year in each country. This may be more difficult for investors. Because the rules and regulations for Crypto vary from country to country.
