I cannot afford or bear to promote a project for more than four months, because the longer the time, the lesser the reward.
When it comes to signature most especially, those with higher ranks will get most parts of the reward and those of us with lower ranks tend to get almost nothing.
Which to me is a waste of time, energy and effort. So i would rather prefer to promote three to four projects within those periods.

We have seen so many countries in some publications, lead in so many areas of cryptocurrency. If only some othet countries can also make a landmark in the cyrpto space, there will be a huge development.
This will attract and create a lot of awareness almost throughout the world.
Japan has been known to be among the countries at the forefront of cryptocurrency and i still expect more to come from them.

There is nothing wrong when you decide to invest in an ICO, but you should be ready to select good ones through a god research method.
I have seen people invest in ICOs and make their profits, which is contrary to the experiences of some people, who sometimes invest in scam ICOs.
We have had a taste of so many forms in the crypto space, so those with good experience should be able to make the right choice in all ramifications. Considerng the team, use cases, tech and so many other factors.

I think whenever scammers want to scam, they are always seriously at which, working tirelessly to get a victim.
They work hard to steal other people's hard earned money, byt will never work hard to get want they want n a legit way. That is just the kind of spirit they have.
We really need to be vigilant in order not to fall victim of their deceptions.
They device new means almost every time.

Decentralization which comes with anonymity, has made the crypto space as well as the technology, which is blockchain, to survive to this point.
I do not think regulation will anything better , except when it comes to those who lunch projects, such as ICO, where they would need to do their KYC, in order to gain the trust of investors.
No anonymity should ber maintained in order to preserve that value. If regulated, then we do not need blockchain again, because that will bring centralization.

Not every ides is welcome, but good ones are highly appreciated.
It is good you have been able to identify a growing problem and not the one that has been solved already, because there are so many projects who just repeat what others have done and sometimes, they do not even do it as much as those in the past have done.
I cannot just wait to see the problem you have identified, as well as that unique solution you have for it.
I want to believe you have been planning on this for long, which is a good idea.

There are lots of freebies in the crypto space, but part of them are those who also have been able to invest.
Just like i always advise those who have interest in cryptocurrency. Want to invest, but do not have the fund to do that. They can start by participating in airdrop and bounty, but since airdrop is not that profitable as before, then bounty should be a good option if they can bear it.
Being a freebie is nothing bad, but how you use the rewards you get tells whether it is bad or good.

Most ICOs that postpone their sales, sometimes still do not meet up with their hardcaps, except for some few ones, who are still developing their product despite stopping the sales
When they have a finished product that is sellable, then investors might have more interest and more will be attracted until the hardcap is attained.
In such case, it will even be easier to reach.

OP, you seen to have lost hope. Giving up is like accepting defeat.
I do not not know what you are giving up so fast, when there are lots of opportunities to gain back what you have lost.
There are those who are still smiling at the market, despite the downtrend.
When you invest in the right project, genuine ones most especially, you then have nothing to fear.

It is believed that if you have a project that is regulated, then there is every likelihood that it maintains its value and the price will be close to being stability. The factor of volatility is removed.
Just as the first acronym of STO implied security, it means your investments are secured.
Tokens from STOs are also traded, just like those of ICOs are traded on exchanges.

In my opinion, havven is not a stable coin. If I can remember the last time it traded, that was before late last year and it is not on matketcap listing site.
Stable coins are coins that have little or no disparity in price or value and examples of such are USDT, GUSD, TUSD and some others that are accepted as standards for coin pairing. Every other coin is subject to volatility.

The general notion and misconception by so many people is that, cryptocurrency is a fast means to bulk.
There were some people I introduced to cryptocurrency and among them were those who wanted the money to come fast, so that they can pay off their Debts.
Most times, these sets of people return back the way they came or some times they will run back with loses.

I am  more focused on investing in new altcoins.
I will not go ahead to invest in any, just because I want to fill and bag, but I will be going for those with active development, which can be viewed from their roadmap.
If you truly want to make profit from any altcoin, it must be very discrete in following roadmap and delivering its goals.

Such coins might dump, but they will eventually rise again.

Most projects that seem to be succeeding in the first quarter or that have the possibility of succeeding are those with fully development platforms.
If their platforms are not developed, most especially to a reasonable point, the coin will eventually dump.
The reason being that active traders who are looking for  opportunities to day trade and get profit will spread FUD to cause panic, so that they can buy low and later sell high.
This is part of what we will be swing in this first quarter.

The problem with some of these projects is that the team lack the technical know-how. Therefore, so many things are mismanaged, including the fund meant for the development of the project.

15 scam projects is something to be worried about. I do not know if you bother to understudied those projects before you joined them.

Some of these projects can be very deceptive, most especially at the start, but if you take your time to study them, you may later discover the true intention of the team.

There are coins and in fact I have seen some coins whose prices got triggered by exchange listing news, but the effect was not a lasting one, because after it might have listing, the price will go back to where it was or even below.
Although, this effect can only be seen or can be found to be obvious on new coins.
Most coins that have been existing for quite some time, can get their prices triggered by development on their platform.

Everyone just keeps making his or her predictions.
Have we even thought by ourselves, what could be making the prices of coins to plummet do much?
Imagine what happened in 2018. It seem the end has co e to crypto and that was the assumption of those who were new and fell for the FOMO is 2018.
Most times, the major factor is panic sell. The fear of what they think will happen.

There are some exchanges that are not yet in the limelight, although they are well known in their regions. I think they will not charge you so much. Exvange such as BW.COM should give you a good trade for your coin. Unlike some where you will see the token dump unnecessarily and yet no volume.
If you are going to be using the exchange I have suggested or others like bitforex, you might need to do some forms of promotions, to attract investors, such as trading competition and have some exchanges in view after that promotion might have ended.

One of my favourite platforms for bounty campaign is bountyhive.
Although, there are rules fusing each bounty, yet they are not difficult to comply with.
Whoever is into social media bounty will find their platform very easy to use.
Most times, their tokens are paid few weeks, in the average, 2 weeks after the bounty.
The team can be trusted despite the absence of spreadsheet, because you will get your exact reward.

If a project claims to issue security tokens and it us not well registered under a regulatory body such as SEC, I do not see it as an STO, because that is the essence of having a security token.
I have seen some projects running STO and some that are already issuing security tokens.
Polymath is a very good example of a successful project based on security tokens.
