It depends on the coin whether it is worth to invest in or not. If the coin has no potential then I would most probably not invest in it but if the coin has potential then I would look how low the price has gone from the past few weeks. I would understand the charts and predict how much the price would increase in future and then wait for the right moment to buy the dip. I wont put in all my money but rather invest a small amount so that I could buy more if it dips again.

Not only Ethereum but I guess almost all the top moat cryptocurrencies are facing competition these days. There are many prompting altcoins/tokens out there with good potential to spike up in the future. So rather than considering any of them as the next Ethereum consider it as the new coin itself which might take the place of ETH.
Although I don't think that will happen because ETH has better chances to stay in that position, its still possible.

That is his point of view and I appreciate his decision because its for a good cause. I don't fully agree with his decision though. Cryptocurrencies in general have a borad usage and anonymity is not the only feature of it. There are people who misuse it for wrong purposes and certain measures can/should be taken against it. But there are quite a whole lot of other things for which cryptocurrencies can be used. I believe the positives are quite more than the negatives.

If you would have talked about Bitcoin then the price would surely have skyrocketed within a week and would have probably crossed $17k byt since you are talking about ICOs I would say that the market cap would surely have increased with some of the cryptocurrencies like BTC and ETH gaining price since these are ones mostly used to purchase ICO tokens. So yeah, it would surely have created an impact on the crypto market in  a positive way.

What sort of things are you planning on to buy Ethereum?  If these things are not valuable to you then you are doing a right thing investing the money in crypto. I am an Ethereum fan myself . I love the way it works and ifs technology is some thing else. I am trying to collect as much Eth as I can . Although I have only a small amount , I feel the price is still low and  it has the ability to grow more in future.

I am against hardforks at the first place. So my direct answer to your question would be NO. Chasing for forks is just stupidity according to me. Forks are done because of a particular implementation of an idea into the current system. It is in no way meant to be used as a strategy to earn more money. Although people do it anyway, it is probably not going to make a huge difference.

I would like to ask you a question here.
How likely do you think Bitcoin and the blockchain technology will succeed in the future ?
If you think that these dont have a bright future then you should probably stop it right now. If you think that it does have a future then there is still a long road ahead and by this I mean that the price is gonna spike up way too high than this. Although it might take a few years, the chances for it to happen are damn high. So just wait and hold the crypto you got there. Find ways to buy more of them.

Electrum is surely a good wallet but I prefer Mycelium wallet over it and over any other wallet. I find it convenient to use since has a good interface, smooth and bug free platform to broadcast transactions online. There some additional features which Mycelium offers more than the electrum wallet.
Besides that, electrum had some loop hole in their app recently which made it vulnerable. Although they have solved the issue now, my trust over Mycelium has become stronger now.

I would definitely not advise anybody to invest in any sort of cloud mining site whether it be a legit site or not. Mining crypto currencies is surely a good thing and a good method to earn some crypto but it's only good when done via the traditional method. Cloud mining wont result in any worthy profit since nobody would give you free money just for doing nothing. It would be 10x times better to just buy any coin and hold it than to invest in cloud mining sites. Besides that, 99% of the cloud mining sites are fake so there is just no point in giving away the hard earned money to some scam sites.

Don't you think Lawyers would be the first person to steal those precious BTC of yours in case of yoir death. Lawyers don't mess it with the real estate and properties because it involves legal things for the procedure to complete whereas if you give your private key to the lawyer he would definitely try to take it since there is no way once could ever find out about it.
The best method according to me would be trigerring a scheduled mail with the private key in it. The algorithm should be like it would ask you to send the mail to the inherited person every 3-4 months and once you are dead and you dont give out any response to it the mail would be sent to the person.

You can go for ETH without any doubts since it is saod to be the most potential coin to yield high interest rates in a long term investment. I would definitely choose ETH because I know it's capabilities. I am not pessimistic about Bitcoin since I am a huge fan of it but I see that there are many difficulties for bitcoin to go through right now which is why many people are turning into ETH .
Apart from that Bitcoin is already at a higher price hence there are good chances for ETH to generate higher interest than Bitcoin this year.

This doesn't look like a strategy to me at all. It is more like a future story to me .
My best strategy during the time of crisis would be something like
1) Find out why the prices are dropping.
2) Analyse the charts and predict if the price will drop further.
3) Sell your coins and buy back at a lower price to gain an increase in capital.
4) Enjoy more profit when the price increases
For anybody who finds it tough to do the above should just hold on to what they have. Never panic. Chill out and stay away until the crash is over.

I would definitely go for Ethereum if I was in your shoes since ETH is the best coin after BTC. It is about 10% price of that of Bitcoin. It is second best coin and is most likely to skyrocket in a few years. ETH has got a good potential to succeed since it is used by many ICOs for development and there are many traders as well who trade it regularly.
It is not that difficult to mine ETH and any person would mine ETH over LTc for a greater profit.

Show them the graph which indicates the price of BTC at the beginning of 2009 and show them the current price of BTC as of today or in the beginning of this year. Tell them there are pretty good chances that bitcoin will cross $25k this year. Tell them the benefits of using BTC as a currency and let them know how much profit others have made investing in Bitcoin. At last you must say them if not bitcoin there are 1500 other currencies as well which still have a bright future ahead. They will then know that cryptocurrencies are here to stay for long.

The difference between coins and tokens is that coins are actual cryptocurrencies which have their own blockchains and are created solely for a purpose whereas tokens are something that are derived from other coins. Tokens are created and run on other blockchains. For example: most of the ICOs these days create ERC20 token which are created in the Ethereum platform because of its flexibility. We can consider tokens as an essence of coins where coins have greater functionalities.

Trading is done by an individual but the it's result is faced by every trader. We buy/sell crypto for ourselves and as a result the price goes up and down. So there is pretty much nothing we could do but hold the coin and wait. We should probably just hold what we have already got and if possible, try to buy more in order to sustain the price of Bitcoin. Only when all the start buying BTC as they were before, the price might go up again.
