It may not... It's been a long time that China and some other countries placed restrictions on ICOs, certain Altcoins and certain bitcoin activities yet individuals in this countries still trades Bitcoin and buys altcoins backdoor. Checking the statistics, the Asian are leading in cryptocurrency trading and altcoin activities.

True, your method of buying bitcoin is quite true and the method is really working cause I have being using when I started storing Bitcoin and also in buying certain altcoins.

It's unwise to start having a negative mindset about the price of cryptocurrency especially bitcoin this new year. You shouldn't judge with what events we had on year 2018 because that year was specifically met for correction. So this year,  look on the brighter side.

It's mostly not easy to find investors just like that this days cause, gone are those days that people just put their money into a project with just a little or small research. With the way  the price of bitcoin just decreased, many investors invest in a project because the project is a working project not just an idea.
So if you want people to invest in your project,  it's best you first establish your project with the little fund you have,   if its solving a problem, then willingly investors will flow in.

It might be surprising to you that payment may not be your major problem but what the marketing agency is delivering might be. Cause one thing is to find a good PR another thing is for them to deliver.

Since you don't really have much for marketing, first find a good marketing agency and explain to them your budget. You pay them from what you have now,  then the remaining payment should come after they deliver, by then you know if they do their job well. Just make sure you keep your own part of the deal.

Also know that mere marketing do not guarantee a  successful ICO, it's just part of it. An awesome ICO  idea automatically draws investors.

Majority of the bounty hunters are in ICO projects advertising for them because of the money in it. Dome of them are really not even interested on what the ICO is all about but just the rewards. That is why you see so many good projects dumps after they get listed in exchanges. It's only few bounty participant that hold their coins for the better days and this acts makes makes some developers look at them as trashy.

Well,  for someone like me who is always careful or skeptical when I'm playing lotteries I won't want to spend anything more than between 1000-3000 Satoshi.

Health Care related ICO is really not a news thing if you are quite conversant with the cryptocurrency especially ICO market. There are a lot of them out there and it's really a big deal. Now, we don't need a repetition of what is being done.  It's okay to conduct another health care ICO but with 'something new'that other ICO hasn't offer yet.

Why do you people keep doing these? Do you people really believe that the SEC intervention in Bitcoin is the only way bitcoin will be able to stand in the future ? SEC or not,  Bitcoin future in the long run is really bright. So I don't understand this unnecessary hype between Bitcoin and SEC. If the upcoming meeting did not turn out well,  Bitcoin will keep on moving.

Since Bitcoin is a coin for the future, we might feel that the youth should be our main target but I feel all age group shouldn't be left out cause we still need huge adoptaion.

Yes,  the older citizens are quite resistant to changes but it can take few explanation to change their minds though I know it might be hard considering how hard it might be for them to fit into the modern culture.

And also, the younger ones shouldn't be left out,  they are the ones to uphold this currency come many years later.

This would have been so perfect but there are so many obstacles. Cause like we have being saying there are some countries falling back in technology etc. And as Bitcoin is mostly digital, these countries won't keep up. And besides,  as much as this our wish may sound good as it is, we still the local,  fiat or offline currencies. It would be best if the two would work in hand.

Well,  we might be tempted to say that it is so because of the drastic way Ethereum failed  in price and this affecting some renowned altcoin and also some ICO particularly the good ones. But we can't be sure that XRP will replace Ethereum cause it has it flaws too. If we are looking for an altcoin to replace Ethereum then we should be looking at EOS.

I guess this very problem is what is preventing bitcoin and cryptocurrency generally from being adopted or adapted because there are still some people and countries who are very low in science and technology. As the idea of cryptocurrency and it's adoption will be a very huge problem as there are unsolved problem of low internet connection and even electricity!

This is why we keep on calling cryptocurrency or digital currency as the future currency. It's so unfortunate that the problem we are having with cryptocurrency taking place is globally acceptance. And we don't blame so government for rejecting it. Cryptocurrency is all about technology and not all country have grown in technology, so we have to give digital currency so time. 

Well,  I think the second and the first day don't really matter but the first day does. At least it matters more to casinos owners. You know what the say; 'first impression or experience matters' this is the phenomenon casinos owners use to attract their players. If first timer players win, there is a huge chances they will try to play again another day unlike first time players who loses on the first day.

If you really are using Binance, why are you looking for a new exchange? Binance has being one of my favorite exchange since I started trading. I started out with Bittrex, but it didn't turn out well.  Though, I tried other exchanges like cex.io, bitfinex and poloniex to look for something different, but I still find myself running back to Binance cause it's straight to point, well and less sophisticated  at the same time.

Yap,  you are right in your own way. Cryptocurrency market is hard to truly predicte and coming up with personal solutions could be another good way to beat the market problems. But I don't think just buying good coins can help solve the problem, though it may be one of the ways but still isn't the best way.  I think solving the problem of panic sell should be the overall solution.

Why the hell will I give out so easily a coin that I buy let alone sell it too soon? I don't hold shitcoins cause I buy coins that meant a lot to me. I don't hold much coins but the few I hold including Bitcoin has a high potentiality to bring bigger impact in the future and also will cost a fortune too then.  Those who are giving out their coins are probably doing so cause they are shitcoins.

OP,  your analysis is a good one and quite correct. I believe it's the same occurance that we had in the year 2014/2015 is what we are experiencing now. I guess this is history repeating itself regarding cryptocurrency. Only what is needed from use is a leap of faith and hold on for the brighter days. One day, this same year and price will also be documented too.

'What is blockchain?' 'I don't know '!  This definitely cracked me up! In as much as it is a joke,  it still have a very stong meaning backing it up. It's so unfortunate that a lot of people are merely talking about blockchain but still yet they don't know what it truly means. Some just want to flow with the latest topic just because of the fear of being left out.
