"Identified" that is to say, let go of privacy and anonymity. Well, if this is true then it's coming at a wrong time owing to the current nature of the market as well as the world now as it will only generate more panic. However, since prominent websites are yet to post anything on it, I will only but keep my fingers crossed while hoping for the best and sooner than later we will know the truth. Lastly, in all, it will not stop the crypto space from growing.

Indeed they are opportunist and as they say, most Opportunities comes but once hence the reason why they are off to scam innocent people with this deadly virus as a cover-up. Also, it is time to be on the lookout for most platforms or organizations which will come up to ask for donations to help tackle this virus; it is good to donate but also wise to do it through the right and established organizations which are thoroughly known, so that you will have the feeling that you did a good work for humanity.

That has been the idea for a long time and it's likely not to change. Maybe I can say a greater number of traders makes use of this idea while a few number which might not necessarily be traders holds their coins, in this case those going long term. Also, if looked at from another angle this idea is the smart move, as it will make the trader who is already in stablecoins or fiat to buy more of his desired coins at the appointed time. But for a trader or holder who is already in loss will find it hard selling thus holding thereof which also depends on the coin in question; that is, if it has a good chance of increasing in price later on or not.

Am human so I can hardly predict but however from my own opinion and how things are working out, I would say it is not permanent. The reason is this, this particular virus is causing a devastating effects on the entire world to the extent countries are now imposing stricter rules to curtail its wide spread. Therefore with the current situation it is possible to assume that every country is taking steps to come up with a cure and at this rate, that shows there will be cure and this virus won't be permanent. With the virus gone or with the announcement of a possible cure for it, there will be a huge price turnaround in the crypto market as well as other markets while taking into account that emotions is one of the traits of the crypto market.

One striking thing I picked out or want to draw your attention to is the statement you just made; Bitcoin dominance increase when people are buying it, that is to say, higher demand leads to greater value. Now, it can see seen that for altcoins to boom there must be a huge demand for it which will invertly lead to the decrease in price of Bitcoin. So back to your question, no one knows when the altcoin season will be as most altcoins nowadays are just for profit with just a little number really after positive change and growth. Also, to a greater extent I think the fate of altcoins depends on that of BTC.

Actually more pairs doesn't really mean better services rather it is just the exchange giving traders or users what they feel is better, that is to say any exchange at all can implement any trading pair they want. Binance exchange has many trading pairs of several stablecoins. Also, trading against stablecoins removes the need to keep profit stable, that is, in every trade being carried out against stablecoins, the trader can easily take the allocation he wants back for trading while keeping the remaining which is profit. In the same way, stablecoins are better suited for bear market but when the market is booming, less traders don't bother as they would want their profit to appreciate with the growing market. In terms of swapping, USDT or stablecoins to other coins is better and i mostly use exchanges; I can also trade with any pair I want depending on what am I after.

This is a total joke and there is no hype about it, also the person who created this needs to be brought to law if possible for playing with such type of virus affecting a greater number of the world, from which many have died from. So in essence, the creator is wishing for the virus to continue spreading and killing people, because apart from this, I see no reason for creating this token. Again, I see this as a means to collect money from people because the idea is funny, unrealistic and unachievable, hence should be ignored entirely.

Everyone or rather most people are recommending ETH first before any other one and from the look of things or to be sincere, it is the truth. Ethereum is one coin which have a very huge opportunity of regaining it's price and even growing more because people have come to trust it more than any other altcoin. Also, with the blockchain upgrade coming up it tends to be a good decision. XLM and BNB is another that have a good chance o growing faster, as each team is trying their best to maintain platform growth and relevance.

Funny as it looks or sounds but that's the truth, although it might not be massive as we might think but the thing is, most people will move their funds into Bitcoin so as to stand a better chance of recovering their losses. Also, the current situation of the world is affecting not just crypto but every other market; therefore your last statement is totally true, I believe there is more to be expected from crypto and those who are looking down on it will only realize they have missed a huge benefit. So in all dealings let's endeavour to pass on the true knowledge of crypto to those who cares to listen.

Yes, seriously when I see the negative things people say about crypto I will only but shake my head and ignore them because it shows that they lack the knowledge of what the crypto space is all about as well as the different phases it has passed through to get to there it is now. Just like you, i strongly believe that crypto in general will bounce back up, this is not the first bear season it has ever faced and in all others it still came out stronger and better. Furthermore, I think buying coins like Eth, BNB, XLM will worth it later on.

Actually in a more serious note you might find out they are not to be blamed, reason being that the managers in question are yet to get hold of good bounties worthy of their time as well as the bounty hunters. Also, I think it's better to wait and get a good bounty than accepting anything that comes the way which might end up being a total waste of time. Some of these groups, their managers are good so I think we should allow them figure themselves out and get hold of the best bounty campaigns.

Yes I tend to believe it is the virus that is the cause of these downtrend in the market this few days, and just like you accurately pointed out, both stock market is feeling the hit. Also with the current situation on ground I may still believe the drop or dump is not yet over. Many countries are imposing more restrictions and regulations so as to limit the spread of the virus and with no cure at hand, that fear, panic and anxiety will still exist thus will make more people to dump their assets for fiat. Therefore, just like fear, panic etc is making people to dump for fiat, in the same way the presence of a cure will restore hope thus bringing about a turnaround in all markets as well as activities in the world.

What is in for the team or what do they stand to gain through such? This is the first question that should always come to mind in this type of cases. Even if they are too generous, selling Bitcoin at 50% discount is enough reason to show the users or members that something is wrong. Well as humans, we all know people will fall for that mostly because it is Bitcoin without taking time to ask questions. I see it as this; they used the airdrop to attract users, made it as attractive as possible, have good twitter activities then showcased their true intentions which is make money off gullible users. Let people always try and look beyond whatever that is being showcased and ask the right questions because scammers are getting wiser and looking for more ways to scam.

This is not good at all, where most countries are already cancelling conferences, mass gatherings etc to limit the spread of this virus and these organizers went head to launch theirs and people even attended. It is understandable that the conference is important but life is more important as it is someone who is healthy that can attend more conferences etc. Let those who attended the conference take precautionary measures to ensure the safety of their friends and loved ones. I wish them quick recovery.

This virus is affecting many activities, disrupting meetings, conferences, businesses and so on, it is not only the crypto market that is affected, every other market is feeling the impact be it stock etc so it will be really funny if someone believes what people are saying about the end of crypto etc. To start with, the crypto market didn't just boom in one day, it passed through various phases before becoming so valuable and thus has come to stay just as it has been doing before now; the only thing is to be patient and calm, do your best, be safe and allow the market do the rest.

First thing first, develop the coin to have value, how? By having a use case because without it even promoting the new coin and selling might not end well. To promote the new coin, a bounty, or airdrop or even both can be held, for bounty social media campaign (Facebook, Twitter and maybe LinkedIn) is a good one as well as content campaign (Article and YouTube) as it will make people understand easily what the project is all about. Signature is also a good one as most forum members will be aware of such project.
Promotion comes before selling in this case, depending on the funds the team have for IEO listing, they can choose any good exchange for IEO through which listing follows thereafter. Lastly have a strong community who are always free to air their opinions, while the team makes the best decisions.

Just like the previous person suggested, get started with that link posted. In my own understanding, ERC 20 tokens are based on Ethereum blockchain owing to the convinent associated with the blockchain, there are other ERC tokens but most projects tends to go for ERC 20. Also, like earlier stated they are based on Ethereum blockchain hence their existence. There are other blockchains out there such as EOS, XLM etc but every project knows what they want to achieve therefore choosing the blockchain which will serve them. Also, most projects only launch on Ethereum blockchain to kick-start their platform while having a specific time to migrate to their own blockchain, projects with this idea have it on their roadmap as "mainnet". Also, most projects might launch on Ethereum blockchain first then alone the line might find a blockchain which they believe will serve better thus migrating to it. So every project choose a blockchain according to their objectives.

But on a contrary opinion, what is the assurance that the project won't exit? There are most projects which came with a good idea but along the line they become worthless could be the team lacks what it takes to drive the platform or they finds it hard getting listed. Actually many investors do things for several reasons, those who have been victims of exit scam might find it hard holding any token apart from major coins, those who invest in IEO might only be for the quick profit and the list continues. In my own case, I would say go with what works for you, if it's holding then go for projects which are worth it and not those based on hype, invest and hold as you want. Also, as an investor get the right knowledge about investing, and know that investment returns takes time.

Well this can be accepted when taking into account how Ethereum grew this year, I mean it started its growth well and also owing to what everyone is expecting this year from Ethereum (Ethereum 2.0) one might not be mistaken for believing it could reach that price or even surpass it; however this is the crypto space where everything is highly unpredictable thus anything can happen. Currently the market is not too favourable but we believe that sooner than later the dust will settle as cryptocurrencies has come along way and has come to stay.

Yes everyone is waiting patiently for it, it is a migration to Proof-of-Stake algorithm which is believed will make Ethereum more scalable which is what the community or users have been clamouring for as well. It is taking place this year so it is logical to believe that the price will appreciate and holders will be rewarded with good rewards. Lastly, since this is a huge upgrade i think it will take a little time for everything to fall in place but the important thing is, we are expecting Ethereum 2.0 this year.
