Even though there has been a relative increase in gas price i do believe that we should be still thankful that it still only takes away such a small proportion of ETH away from us. Let us all hope that these gas levels don't get to what the BTC transaction levels are now. 

On my TX notification it stated to me that because of the rise of ICO activity there were huge delays in transferring my ETH. However, I normally use 30 GW and normally takes me 20/30 mins to get my ETH into my exchange. My prediction though, this will significantly increase to silly amounts in 2018!

I've been thinking with the huge amount of new ALTS coming into the market and quite a few making it onto exchanges will it bow become harder for us in the crypto community to sell our coins when the public will be so distracted with so many other ICO's in the domain?

The best way is to monitor ICO bench but also scan ANN and Bounty threads - then links to Webs. The best ones to get into are ICOs that have already got great advisors, connects, exchanges on with a nice bonus buy in. This is the best way to maximise value when buying altcoins.

I think in 2017 we saw the foundations and growth of altcoins, and its only just a taster of whats to come. I believe that in 2018 we will see a lot of the newer releases hitting exchanges (ones who hit their hard cap like STK Stack Token) smash the markets. People who already offer to pay these people 7x the amount for tokens before hitting exchanges are in a very privileged position.

I think 2018 will be the year of Ethereum and Ripple. I do believe as other users have already addressed that lower transaction fees will significantly reduce people using BTC for monetary transfers. BTC will become like gold and nobody will want to touch it until they need their mortgage paying off or debts paid. Remember everyone to hold crypto!!

Well I very much doubt it will reach $100 by the  summer period. Although I think the WAVES platform is great - with a fantastic Bounty tool in place for awarding WAVES to social media content users i do still think it will take a while for this crypto to grow into that figure. However, the counter argument is that with more and more users propping this alt up that there will be a greater demand (with a limited supply) coming through, thus driving this price even higher.

I think there's no doubt about it - RIPPLE has been one of the biggest winners in Crypto in the last year a long with ETH AND BTC obviously. I'm so shocked to see the return on investment with this particular coin and am over the moon that its on the up! I'm trying desperately to follow an many ICO's as possible to try and get as many ALTS as possible for 2018!

My question is this particular ICO actually linked to the airbnb company or are they a completely different entity in themselves? Definitely interested i going in with this iCO

From working in ICO's for about 4/5 months now as my full time job I think the most effective on the community side connecting with ICO team members (installing confidence is telegram). I think the best one getting hype for the ICO is twitter, but the best for advertisement is Facebook. Programatic advertisement executed well in ICO's should use all of these in different ways .

The best advice i would be to analyse what exchanges or deals the altcoin has lined up and estimate price dips or increases. Normally selling a $1 is a good call but i have been in the situation where sold at $1 and then it would rise to 4 or 5 and i would be kicking myself

The BOE (Bank of England) head Mark Carney has stated recently that they wish to regulate not only ICO's but also impose a taxed system where the government will look to tax alts and bitcoin/ ethereum etc whilst in wallet.. This would obviously be good for making ICO's credible ... but also bad for holders as you wouldn't be able to strategically hold tokens and pay yourself in good tax terms in the future.  

I very much doubt this will happen.. It could understandably rise to around 20/25 million dollars easily.. However I can't see the chance of these unreal growth rates up until .... well the 21 million BTC is out in the system.

Where will Blockpool be heading in 2018? Any new mergers or deals with other cryptos or other exchanges?? Thanks

Any particular news from anyone on the status of this alt going on any exchanges??

This is a great project and have full support for this bounty. When will stakes for signatures be available ?

Even though i receive my monthly payments in ETH I am still quite happy that the price is going up! I'm just trying to save a larger amount in my wallet so i can accumulate some wealth. Keep rising and i will keep saving  

What a fantastic project and i wish it all the best

Definitely an interesting project! Wish you the best of success in this project and lending support across community channels !

I would recommend looking into AMLT by Coinfirm. It has great industry recognition and also already has over $9m in ICO (runs till 31st Jan by TokenMarket) .. Have a look - they're trying to move more AML and CTF compliance into Blockchain and I have really high hopes for them. Also STK bounty was great but never went to ICO due to Harcap. Also participating in Cryptobnb - i really like this project and hope it flies
