I think yes. Right now I have invested to menlo and OPP. I don't see any problem investing into projects specially when its bear market, just make sure that the project is competent enough to withstand the bear market right now.

Seeing how the price have gone down for the past few I say I'd go for BTC, but I still don't want to factor out investing into ICO's specially those projects that I see potentials. Example menlo and OPP, they both have the best concept of a project and its what we needed right now.

In some way they are good and bad. The bad thing is that these ICO's are sometimes fake and just want to take advantages of the investors especially the new ones good thing there's site like menlo.one the would help eradicate the fake projects out there. On the other hand, this ICO boom is giving us opportunity to mainstream the cryptocurrency or the blockchain technology to the people.

That's underrated mate, if you look into some review sites like icorating, icobench, menlo.one you'll see that it is expected that everyday there's 5-10 projects being borned. I don't think its a bad thing, because it increases the popularity of crypto which would bring a positive impact, giving us more investors and more money flowing.

Yeah. It is very risky to invest in ICO right now. Fake projects are very rampant and even the most legit looking project turned out to be a scam. I think we need something that can solve this problem right now. Review sites are being corrupted, few days back I have read a thread exposing the truth about fake ICO reviews. I hope menlo will start immediately because they plan to filter out the scam project in ICO space.

I agree. Lose some to gain some. LOL

The thing with ICO nowadays is that it cannot be trusted anymore. Most of them are just a bunch of either a copy-paste of existing concept or just a pure scam. I think what we need is something that can sort good projects from the bad ones. Anyways, have anyone come accross with this website? www.menlo.one

Of course, to help you with that there are some website to help you decide what ICO to invest with like icobench, icorating, or menlo.one. Use them as your reference and remember to always do a good research before investing a penny on anything.

I've come across with this ICO. Menlo.one and they have a nice concept of a project. They plan to build a community of expert to give new investors decide on what tokens to buy during an ICO and what not. The thing with them is that there will be incentives for experts who will join on their platform.

I have read about their site and they seem to be promising and has a nice concept. One thing that we need right now is something that can solve the tokens scalability problem.

I have chatted through their telegram group and they seem to be legit. They have an 11,000 members on their telegram and I'm confident this would be a great project in the near future.

It seems that Menlo can change the lives of many investors and entrepreneurs. One of the reason is that, they can provide people investing in ICOs with a new undiscovered level of perception into the aspect of the project by influencing feedback from the crowd.

As I have said, they don't focus much about the ICO and their token right now. Paybear's priority is getting more merchants on using their product.

Yeah they don't have any tentative date for the ICO launch, but basing on their roadmap it'll be in the last quarter of 2018.

Yeah, All queries should be directed to their telegram group because they don't focus on ICO right now. What can I see from their telegram group is merchants asking for help integrating their API. Maybe when they launch their token, some of the admins will be active here.

Nah. Its not the right time to buy right now. Just wait it out and buy BTC when the price reaches 15k again. And when a sudden dip happen, create a new thread here about how BTC ruined your life.

Seriously speaking, no matter what the price of BTC is its always the right time to buy. What people should be thinking is what is the right time to sell? Haven't you think of it. Some people here buys at High and suddenly sells at Low when price suddenly dips later whining how BTC ruined their life.

I do hope to reach that level.  LOL

Wouldn't be a golden opportunity to us? To reach that far? Every time BTC makes a bearish move everyone seems to post a thread like this one. What can I say is, If someone is afraid then sell those coins and invest your money in stock exchange. There you'll see not much of this kind bear and bull move.

Its been a long time since I have checked this thread and no staff has arrived to answer any concerns of their services. You might just go directly to paybear's telegram or twitter account to clarify any queries you have in mind. BTW, what's your question I might be able to help you?

For me the best option would be is to buy a mining rig and mine coins myself than to put my money on something I don't have control with. I think there has been some history of scams about these types of investment. Don't know about Genesis though if they would last.

Yeah I also think it that way. Been on their telegram group of paybear and in fairness to the team. They are very responsive and will be glad to answer any of my queries.

I have checked all you have suggested. Here's my thoughts.

1. Shifty Button - I think this one is the most user friendly IMHO, I will dig deeper on it because I can't find their actual cost per transactions.
2. Coinpayments - Nah, I'll pass on this. CS sucks as we know it.
3. CoinGate - Not noob friendly, I don't know much about API's and stuff.
4. Blockonomics - Never heard of this.

I know Paybear is new in this market, but their team is very supportive. And their website, is a bit more enticing. LOL  
Bitpay on the other hand, claims to charge only 1% but it isn't true. IMO, they're charging more than that.

Paybear or Bitpay? Paybear is definitely way more cheaper in terms of transaction fees, but seems a bit more complicated to set up (I have no experience in coding). Any thoughts?
