The choice is theirs, mate. Personally, I don't like it either, but since they all have the choice whether to join or not then it will be fully up to them. I know that a lot of people here are only looking for free tokens. They would go as far as repeatedly joining airdrops even if they have an inkling that the tokens they will receive will only be worth a lollipop. I would not exert much effort for such small amount.

HODL is good both for you personally and to Bitcoin itself. Bitcoin's value relies on its owners. Everything is in the hands of Bitcoin holders. If they decide to dump, the value will also go down. And if they decide to buy, the price will rise. In the long run, as more and more people get to know Bitcoin, the demand will also rise. It is here where the value of HODL is clear. The demand is definitely rising, which also means a rise of its price. Look at the prices of Bitcoin over time. There is a consistent and strong rising.

Well, the basic is that before jumping into something, you make sure that you know the possible repercussions of which. You do not just get yourself involved into something without knowing the possible risks, benefits, processes, and so on. There are so many crybabies and whiners in crypto. But the blame is to be put fully on them because they did not even care to learn the basics before joining. The crypto world is not for the lazy and emotional ones.

Burning of tokens does not speak of any kind of actual development to the project itself nor to its product. However, it is still a very positive news because it means the team is not anymore holding a huge amount of tokens that they could dump anytime. Moreover, it also means the total supply of tokens is reduced, causing the remaining tokens to have the probability of acquiring more value.

No, the opposite is quite true. Instead of Bitcoin becoming harder to access in the future, it will become a lot easier. Right now, there are so many people who are very interested to buy and use Bitcoin but could not because of a lot of hindrance. There is the fact that they can hardly buy Bitcoin using fiat in their localities, Bitcoin restricted in their respective countries, Bitcoin not acceptable in most of their local stores, etc. But the future will cater to all these people because Bitcoin is fast becoming acceptable worldwide.

Well, it can be used to buy goods from any country in the world for as long as you are buying them from shops or sites where cryptocurrency is accepted. It does not matter whether it is from other countries. Crypto is global. It goes beyond territorial jurisdiction. To a certain extent, it may add good points to a country's economy. But I would not go as far as saying that it will solve socioeconomic problems of a country. Crypto is not a miracle capsule for that. It will help, certainly.

Overall, I don't think it is wise to invest in ICOs at this moment. Most of the ICOs I have encountered and which I made a little background check with are not as good as they could possibly be. However, there are a few I saw that I think are worth risking but only with a small amount. Try to check Eternal Trusts and judge for yourself whether it is one of those who are to be trusted or to be let go. ERC20 still has a future I believe. It's just that the overall market performance right now is below average.

As always the case, the best buys are the best coins. And the best coins more often than not are found in the top 50 of coin ranking sites such as coinmarketcap.com. That would not be too hard to choose which one/s to invest. Of course, beyond altcoins, every investment portfolio should also have Bitcoins in it. That is very basic. I am supporting almost all the altcoins in the top 50. Most of them are good buys.

It takes time, yes. But it will be worth promoting and using. In the end, when everything's paying out, when the world will be finally using cryptocurrency instead of fiat, we will see how smooth and efficient financial transactions will be regardless of which country you will be dealing with. There will be a lot of waiting and patient explanation to people why crypto is much better than fiat. But that's little compared to the vision.

I don't think so. There is no need for a rebranding. The name is above every other name in the world of cryptocurrency, so why change it? If you hear cryptocurrency, you cannot avoid hearing Bitcoin also. I guess everybody knows this. You cannot hear Ethereum or Ripple or any other coin except getting the name Bitcoin first. I guess what is needed this time are more and more shops and stores and stalls and malls to start accepting Bitcoin.

It may not jump as high as it made in December of 2017 but it will still rise high. I am still positively seeing a Bitcoin with a $20,000 or more mark in the last days of the year. But if it fails, it will definitely be more than $15,000. Bitcoin is gaining in the last few weeks although slowly. This to me is a sign that it is trying to break the resistance. Once successful, it will fly on and on.

Which part of trading would you want to learn? I think you need to start somewhere specific. Perhaps you will have to begin in getting yourself familiar with cryptocurrency prices and their candle movements. And then learn the particular patterns that their prices possibly create. And perhaps you will need to choose a trading platform after which. Choose a specific one that has the most friendly navigation, that which you can find easy to familiarize. And then start with a small amount.

Please read a lot of materials about crypto trading.

The best way to change the public view of cryptocurrency is to use it more often. If the public will see how ubiquitous the shops accepting cryptocurrencies are, they will soon realize that cryptocurrency is indeed a legitimate currency, albeit digital. If they know that there are a lot of people who are paying with cryptocurrency, the same message will arrive in their heads. And then let us be open and proud using cryptocurrency to make it the new normal.

As of now, we still cannot tell whether it is Ethereum or Bitcoin that would prove to be profitable in the end. There is still a good deal of time left before the curtain of 2018 finally falls. If we consider what happened last year, the surging of the prices happened in the later part of the year. We still have to wait a little for that. We are almost at the end of September. These are times full of suspense and excitement. As for me, in terms of percentage growth, that would be Ethereum. Primarily because Ethereum is still way cheaper than Bitcoin.

I agree with you. Basically, every coin has fundamental factors that could affect its price. Included in these affecting factors are their working products and how widely adopted they are, their marketing, their strong community, and so on and so forth. However, it is also true that when Bitcoin is down, there is a possibility that altcoins would also go down. It is not because Bitcoin controls them directly but because Bitcoin has a very strong influence to the market due to the fact that it is the leading coin or even the torch-bearer of crypto. If it goes down, the entire cryptocurrency body is affected to a significant extent.

If the value of your coins are now worth a can of soda, then you better take the risk of saving them in your wallet for a long time. Who knows, they will recover and earn some significant growth. After all, withdrawing them is almost worthless. But if your coins are worth something but rallied very strongly, you have the option to withdraw them and buy once again when the price has gone back low. There are so many altcoins, some are worth keeping and some are worth selling. Some are even worth forgetting.

Strictly speaking, bounty hunters are not investors. In terms of ICO projects in the world of cryptocurrency, bounty hunters are like freelancers doing job for the projects. And as such, they do not normally receive dividends and similar perks even if they are holding a certain amount of tokens in their wallets. However, there are also projects that give equal privilege or benefits to all token or coin owners. That includes the bounty hunters of course. However, in a different sense, bounty hunters are investing time, effort, and skills to help a project gain success.

The market will always disappoint and surprise. It will always be the creator of wealth and loss. It will put a smile on your face or frown. That is always the market. If the market made you disappointed, then perhaps you need to change your outlook, strategy, disposition, etc because the market that disappoints you is the very same market that makes other happy and richer. But one thing is for sure, the market will reward those who are patient believers.

Warren Buffet is not a god, not even near. He may be an institution in terms of investment and business-related strategies but he also has some biases, personal ones, as well as likes and dislikes. So perhaps Bitcoin is not his cup of tea. That does not mean of course that the features of Bitcoin is no good at all simply because someone rich is saying so. That would not be fair. Others who are also wealthy and successful investors and businessmen are thinking otherwise.

HODL is definitely needed right now more than any other day. The market, although green as of today, has yet to really recover. We are still waiting for the big bull run. And it might take place one of these days. Aside from the fact that most of us are having a smaller portfolio value due to the long red days, it would be better for the market if we avoid selling for now.
