Many people sell Bitcoin and crypto in general because there's still many doubts about it.
They are scared that crypto is a balloon that is about to pop any time soon and they want to secure their profits/investment.
Crypto is still in early phase and isn't mass adopted yet, so I understand where the fear might be coming from.

A combination of both works for me.
I do day trading and also invest in ICO's if I think it's worth investing in. So far, all the ICO's I invested in gave me a nice profit.
Make sure you do your own research before you invest in any ICO.

I am positive it will reach $1,000, and it will happen sooner than we think.
Ethereum is one of rare cryptocurrencies that has an game changing real life use, and it can be implemented in almost every business in one aspect or another.
The world is slowly starting to embrace it and I think we will see it reach $1,000 before 2019.

Scam? I don't think so. It is just a useless token.
Regulations need to be introduced to crypto right away. It is unbelieavable that 5 people can just choose to fork BTC, premine it before and dump it on everyone else. Not to mention how markets are going down before the fork.
Anyway, as soon as these forked coins become worthless like BTG is about to, people will stop buying BTC before the forks and markets won't crash so hard.

It is possible, but in these times you have to devote yourself to it fully, it will actually become your real job.
You need to spend at least 8-10 hours a day researching projects, whitepapers, watching at screens and charts to see when is the right time to sell, follow all the news/forums/social medias to react fast..
If you invest your time in it, it is certainly possible, but due to extreme volatility, not recommendable (a combination between real job and crypto works for me).

With regards to buying the token with fiat, start by depositing to GDAX (it is a platform connected to Coinbase, but with much lesser fees).
Once you buy ETH there, open an account on Bittrex or Binance (preferably both).
With regards to which coins to buy, it strongly depends on how risk averse you are as an investor. A mid risk (in crypto terms) would probably be holding 40% in BTC/ETH combo, 30% in well established coins that still have potential to grow (e.g. NEO, OMG) and the rest of 30% in lesser known alts with small cap and huge potential, but also huge risk.
If you are more of a risky kind of guy, you can create a portfolio of 2-3 alt coins you did a research on, this might bring you much more money faster, but you are also eligible to loose most of your investment really quick.

Safer? Bitcoin for sure. It is a pioneer of cryptocurrencies and despite it's volatility, it is going in upwards direction.
More profitable? Alts for sure. You won't really see BTC going up 30x in a matter of months (it used to, the market cap is too big now).
I believe the combination between BTC/ETH and alts is the best way to manage your portfolio. BTC/ETH will provide a stability, while alts will give you much bigger potential for growth.

If Satoshi Nakamoto shows ANY sign of still being alive and involved in crypto, Bitcoin is INSTANTLY going to the moon. Everyone is gonna go totally crazy if he decides to show up, it won't even matter if he dumps BTC/BCH or whatever he does, just his presence will boost us a lot.
Well, it actually depends what kind of sign he gives. If you see his BTC wallet address going live, and you see him starting to sell coins, BTC would probably drop 80% in a matter of days (not because of his huge quantity, but people loosing faith in BTC). It is hard for inventors to sell their coins actually. People need to liquify their investment, and just because they sell some of their tokens, doesn't mean they don't trust their idea (there was a huge hype when Vitalik sold a tiny stash of his ETH, probably just to cover his life expenses). |

I am extremely picky with ICO's, and this is why all of the ICO's I participated in gave me at least 50% returns (with some going even to 500%).
I do thorough research on everything related to the project, coin and it's team, and most important things I consider are:
1. Actual use for both project and coin (good example - Binance coin, which is used for reducing the fees of trading for 50% and there will always be demand for it);
2. "Low" hard caps - in general, I only invest into projects up to $15m. Occasionally, I invest in projects with bigger cap, but only if I think there is a justified use for this kind of money explained in the whitepaper (e.g. Kyber);
3. Good team with previous experience in their respective fields;
4. It takes some effort to get in (e.g. you need to write an short answer of why you want to invest in the project, or there is some kind of whitelist that closed fast, or some kind of proof of care and so on).

If I knew about them a year ago, maybe I would. There was a number of good and perspective ICO's that made airdrops.
Nowadays, 99.9% of new coins that offer free airdrop will never go mainstream and have no future whatsoever, so if you are able to get a free airdrop and actually sell it on some exchange with $5 profit, that's a very good deal.

ICO regulations are great and desirable, because it will only bring perks to crypto world such as:
1. More security for the investors (not so many scams will happen, and money grabs will be punished);
2. More money flowing in (if the market gets regulated, we might see a huge cash inflow from stock exchanges / regular people seeking for an investment opportunity);
3. Regulating would point all the lights to crypto, it would get a huge publicity from media and newspapers and many more people will join and adopt digital currencies, which is the ultimate key for their survival.

Not really an anonymous coin, but I would buy Ambrosus (AMB).
It is currently trading 40% under ICO price with mcap around $28-29m, and I believe this is one of the best coins in long term. They have the most legit team I have ever seen in crypto, and an actual real life usage.

Unlike other exchanges, EtherDelta is a decentralized exchange (DEX). This means that no 3rd party is holding customers funds, but trading is happening peer-to-peer between 2 users (basically wallet to wallet trading).
The fact that it is decentralized, ED does not need a permission from company for the trading to occur, because it is not listing the coin, it just works like escrow between your and other users wallet. Thus, ED lists all of Ethereum based tokens as soon as the ICO is over.
Right now there are not many DEX that actually work, but many have completed their ICO’s and will be operating soon (Kyber, AirSwap, 0x etc.)

I do not defend any party in this case
after read all your opinion, "sometime" i think that The Pharmacist only butthurt and i also i cant 100% belive nizar93 too.
there still no solid evidence for both party in this Accusations.
so my opinion is :
1) why don't you "nizar93" just pay that $35 to "The Pharmacist". Let's just say this is a reward for your negligence. since they say other participant have been, it should not big of a deal right ? than your red tag should be remove
2) we can stay like this without any real settlement
How is The Pharmacist butthurt? Because he is accusing everyone who got payed to be involved with this "scam" (RealSwissMiner, Beerwizzard, me). Nizar93 story is suspicious and there is no doubt that The Pharmacist has to get paid, but it is not his right to go around forum and ruin random members' reputation with his conspiracy theories. |

Hey,
are you sure any other exchange will list this token? Because of the equity rights and dividend payout, it will not be SEC compliant and will be considered a security, which automatically rules out the posibility of it being listed on known crypto exchanges.
Is your legal departmant researching the solution to convert this token to stocks and then list it on a stock exchange?
Thanks in advance for your answer, it's nice to see business with revenue turning to crypto.

So this is the story you guys would have us believe: That some scammer hacked an account, created a scam campaign, paid some of the members (but not me, of course), and that the original owner suddenly found out that his account was hacked and then reclaimed his account?
And you want us to believe: That some Indonesian guy colluded with an English speaking TorCash representative, created a campaign for like 6 people (not remember the exact number), payed 5 of them to apply and pretend they got money on their fake BTC wallets and then cancel the campaign 2 hours after just so you wouldn't get your $35. Yeah, plausible. What scammer have you ever seen here who would pay out even partially, while getting less than a day of signature space in return?
What scammer would only run a scam campaign for 2 hours, when he could have easily just let it go for 4 days and not pay you afterwards? I have no proof of that, but all the evidence here points to a scam. The evidence is that Nizar93 created a fake sig campaign thread, promised to pay users in advance, and then didn't pay the one user who'd make a huge stink--me. Since you can't prove a negative, I doubt I'll be seeing any evidence that Nizar93's account was hacked or that the Swiss guy isn't a shill. Beerwizzard, if you received payment you were probably in on it too. I'm still having an internal, between-the-ears debate.
You say "There is no proof for this, but evidence point out to a scam". There is absolutely no evidence but your pure rage caused indications. Basically, you are randomly accusing 3 members of this community who are trying to earn their money just like everyone else, to be scammers, just because they got paid in campaign and you didn't. While the part about nizar93 offering his account to someone for money might be true, you can't just throw a random theory about 3 of us being involved if your only proof is us getting payed. |

The worst type of scammer. Payed for a fake campaign and disappeared. Abolutely pathetic!  As I already posted at the previous thread here is the tx where some of the applicants were payed upfront: https://blockchain.info/en/tx/473c2db446a78c42273464a427ccf74ce475974edd773fac2aa8c970a879ce2eThere is too many strange things around this thread but i think there is a chance that this guy was realy hacked (he realy payed over 200$ and said that the campaign is a scam, wtf?). Imho ofc thats your right but you butthurt too much about the time you've spent for applying for it. I have no doubt those recipients were part of the scam. I have little doubt that Nizar93 wasn't, in fact, hacked. And if he was, he deserves the neg for not stopping this sooner. Don't let the change in English quality fool you. That's part of the scam, and if you believe that just because the offer was made in relatively good English, you're a sucker. You don't think he could have had someone else post for him? You should really calm down with your accusations. I do understand you are mad because you were promised something and it wasn't delivered, but you cannot just go around and say everyone who claims to be paid is involved into this situation. I also applied for this campaign, got accepted and got paid - am I gonna get red trust as well, just because you say so? Before tagging anyone, admins should check the IP address on nizar93 account to see if IP address changed in last couple of days. They shoud also check out his writing style 3 months before and how it suddenly changed 2 weeks ago. He either had some insanely intensive English languag lessons or it's not the same person writing. Now, I'm not defending nizar93 because he myabe tried to sell his account or he didn't secure his account well enough, but you cannot just create conspiracy theories and give negative trust to everyone who applied for the campaign. On the same note, I seriously don't see any point in making a campaign, and revoking it 3 hours later. You would expect that a scammer would let the 4 day campaign finish and then disappear/not pay? Next time before posting please think how your unbacked allegations can affect someone's reputation here. So now no one answers? Should I also give you negative trust because you spread FUD, back to kindergarden?
Or was it really just about blaming someone?
I hope that at least someone would answer and we can have a serious discussion about this.
Hope you get your negative trust removed. |

I actually do believe it's not the same person. Whoever I spoke to through PM had a completely different style of writing and was fluent in English. Real nizar93 has a different style of writing as English is obviously not his first language, which is understandable. What makes it even more weird is that I did get paid today, even though I removed my signature.  |

ETH is great but would never replace BTC for so many reasons !
Can you name few of those many reasons? The way I see it ETH has alien technology compared to BTC, much more uses, transactions are much faster and cheaper and so on. What do you think is BTC's advantage over ETH, besides the fact that it is the first cryptocurrency ever made? |
