61  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: If you have many digital coins how do you secure it? on: August 20, 2017, 02:20:36 PM
I put everything I can on hardware wallets, I put non POS coins on paper wallets when possible and have POS coins in regular software wallets.

You need to pick the right one or spread your investment between ICO's. Don't give all your money in one ICO. It may become scam, perform bad, collect more money than needed and price decline or even give too much bounties then it's not profitable. If you pick right projects to invest you are safe. Good luck finding them though.

This is great advice! I never considered that too many bounties could dilute a tokens value.

My heaviest bag is in WAVES!!  It's got a strong development team and I'm sure it will be a good hold for the long term!!  Looking forward to any new news developments on WAVES!! Grin

I see too many people hold WAVES but I wouldn't say it's a bag because WAVES is performing really well. I expect it to reach higher tops next year. It's already made 20-25x this year. It just needs to breathe some and fix the graphs. People who hold WAVES for long term will be very happy.

I think most people don't understand what "bag" means, you apparently do.

I would diversify my purchases. First I would take about $10,000 and invest it into a few very young coins with a lot of promise, I really don't have any recommendations for coins of that type, I'm still researching that. With the remaining $90,000 I would pick up equal parts IOTA, ARK, NEO, ETH, BTC, XMR and LTC.

If you buy some coins that are proof of stake, you could be rewarded coins for essentially running the network. There are also faucets out there that give away free tokens, although they give very little. You could also watch the airdrop threads in the forums, a lot of tokens are given away there.

ICO's aren't always the best way to invest, anyone who bought into SONM's ICO would know that its price after the ICO was nearly half of what they paid.

I've noticed three situations that could make buying into an ICO a bad idea, but I'm sure there are more.

1. Pre-ICO token sales can affect the post-ICO price. Some investors are allowed to buy into a token before the ICO, these buyers are usually given the best price. The pre-ICO buyers can dump their tokens immediately after the coins are listed on an exchange and they can dump them below the ICO price and still make a generous profit. At a minimum, this temporarily screws the ICO investor who paid more for the supposed 'Initial Offering'.

2. Depending on the projects design, devs can be given tokens as a reward and they can dump them immediately after they go to market. If they dump a lot of tokens, they'll dip below the ICO price and affect the ICO buyers value.

3. The project is having problems (devs are leaving, scam uncovered, lack of progress...) and nobody wants to buy it.

67  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are the top 5-10 biggest problem solving coins? on: August 20, 2017, 11:28:09 AM
Humaniq HMQ aims to provide financial services to billions of people without access to banks. There are huge obstacles to overcome, but it could change the world if it was successful.

That sounds the general goal of any cryptocurrency. If that's the goal of Humaniq then in my opinion it is very generic. It's not bringing something new on the table.

I believe they plan to supply many of their 3rd world users with free or extremely reduced cost android phones to start their HMQ financial service accounts. The goal may be generic, but the method in which they access their target audience is unique.  
68  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: EOS Officially Has The Worse ICO Setup In History on: August 20, 2017, 11:22:27 AM
I don't believe that all ICO's are scams, but this one is very fishy. The sale structure is ridiculous and too long. I get the feeling a lot of people, especially early investors are going to have buyers remorse.
69  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Wich cryptocurrency is the most promising? on: August 20, 2017, 11:18:16 AM
I think Monero and IOTA are very promising. I believe Monero is the most private coin out there and IOTA is very ambitious in the IOT space and has zero transaction fees.
70  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What alt-coin do you feel is the most superior "other" cryptocurrency? on: August 20, 2017, 10:51:44 AM
I believe Monero is the superior privacy coin.
71  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IOTA on: August 20, 2017, 10:47:25 AM
For the current moment IOTA the only currency which dont have fees for transaction and it makes it special on the market i am also looking for SONM not a bad project  maybe can get to that point later, i read the thread about if anybody can explain the formula of IOTA but i didnt see any answer. if people really can send payments without any fees it really good for small payments and save a lot of money for users and cryptocurrency intrested groups

If you're looking into picking up SONM, now is probably a good time, I don't think it's going to get any cheaper.
72  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How about them WAVES!!?? on: August 20, 2017, 10:44:18 AM
I love the leasing feature, nice passive income.
73  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Any new airdrop coins? on: August 20, 2017, 10:43:04 AM
Here some free coins you get on the waves blockchain https://www.coinstarter.com/?ref=odtdjjn3x

PSA: Lot of scam accusations around this one

Please use throwaway mail address and unique username/password.


I appreciate the words of caution, thank you.
74  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you know AnalCoin? on: August 20, 2017, 09:27:35 AM
The biggest disadvantage of AnalCoin is it can only be stored in a prison wallet. If you've heard Christopher Walken's speech in Pulp Fiction, you're familiar with the prison wallet.
75  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you know AnalCoin? on: August 20, 2017, 09:24:58 AM
I've been trying to sell analcoin to my girlfriend for years, analcoin does not sell.

76  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: IOTA on: August 20, 2017, 09:17:54 AM
I like IOTA's ambition and no cost transactions. I bought a bunch for about $.25 USD per mIOTA on July 10th, it was a great deal.
77  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your heaviest bags? on: August 20, 2017, 09:10:43 AM
I'm confused, I thought a "bag" was when someone carried a large amount of coins that are undesirable, like the phrase "left holding the bag". A lot of the coins people are talking about like IOTA and Waves are good.
78  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Do you plan to quit the altcoin world? on: August 20, 2017, 04:33:22 AM
I have a cash target for my portfolio, if I hit it I'm getting out and never looking back.
79  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: crypto based card on: August 20, 2017, 04:31:27 AM
This could be a good thing, more choices and competition usually benefits the consumer.
80  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: [future prediction] Market of cryptocurrencies on: August 19, 2017, 10:13:36 PM
There will probably be a crash like the dotcom bubble, it will kill most of the shitcoins, but some will survive and become financial juggernauts like google and amazon.
