Good ICOs are harder to find as the day pass. The word "GEM" is a niche in describing these ICOs. We can't trust almost every ICO rating websites these days because more often than not they advertise ICOs that are not sorted well or studied enough to be called GEM. Sometimes an individual study or research about the project often leads to a red flag than the ICO rating sites saw themselves.

It always comes down to money. Raising money for a start up is extremely hard. You need to pitch your product to people that never heard of the things you try to solve and on top of that, you want them to give you money. With ICOs you are targeting people around the world, that may (or may not) be technically well versed and hence are much easier to convince to invest in your product.

I've seen a few posts about this project and how game changing people claimed it will be. I've done some research and it does seem promising especially since it's platform is decentralized which means no manipulation. I just hope that the white paper does what it says and not disappoint investors once it's got the funding it needs.

I agree with you, maybe he does not understand what we are going through.

Although the charts are due to lazy, every day I  post  and answer dozens of comments, you see I still jr.member

Well i think everyone of us in crypto should take the time to provide information to other people. It's easy to bait people who don't know bitcoin because it can really be a source of easy money though not all the time. These scammers show them proof that they can earn so they fall for whatever scams they do. The more information about btc and crypto shared, the less these scammers will have easy victims

I highly doubt it. Instead of this, you should start reporting those (useless posts).

Perhaps the exchangers will become the place to do the money laundering? I mean still depends on the what kind of regulation they will impose on the exchangers. If it just tracks the transactions happening at the exchanger then it wont be much useful as our addresses still remain the anonymous. There are services like bitcoin mixers where we can get the anonymous characters unfolded and no will know we were the one who did that transaction. Correct me if I a wrong with this ? There Will always be different ways of making the whole transaction anonymous and thus keep it untraceable. This is as long as we do not transact in the bank accounts. However the later is still the same case as if today.

Has anyone looked into Paybear? They have a fully functioning service (provide a payment gateway) for ecommerces and are on the verge of launching their token, so basically all the current webshop owners who are already accepting the big cryptos with their API will automatically be able to accept the token as a payment method, does this sound big?

It wont go below 5000. This is just the holidays especially the chinese new year when people sell their coins so they have enough money for the holidays coupled with new investors who panicked during the fall and some negative news about bitcoin that are surely works of the whales who want to manipulate the price. It aint gonna be down for long. It will zoom back to 19k and maybe reach 20k this year.

I see. I want to store the airdrop in the blockchain. So when you sign up, you are actually stored in the blockchain and a function call will run the airdrop, so everybody will get the same amount. I won't do this manually.

The lazy, the banks, the organizations do not choose the crypto as a solution because it has a choose reason. You can not go out of business when the value changes constantly, it negatively affects their money. Crypto is not like a blessing that can reduce the rate of unemployment or poverty because it is always risky.

If everyone starts using electronic money, infrastructure will also need to be developed proportionately. It will not take too much time for paper money to disappear from the market. At the present time, it is not yet clear whether financial institutions can adapt to that change in a timely manner.

Considering they will have enough knowledge and resources to use Bitcoin, they can but lets be honest here, we know that it would be hard for them to use it becuase they lack the essentials to fully use cryptocurrencies.
Another thing is that, if they will exchange their fiat money for bitcoin, it would be possible that they can much less that the actual amount of their money.

The beggar? You means that someone who stolen access to login our wallet? I think many people in the world i.e good and bad people. Sometimes, the bad people work hardly to stolen our wallet access. So, always take care guys

Please stop making and spreading fake news and conspiracy theories against bitcoin for some cheap youtube views and gaining fake fame.

The simple answer is hold Bitcoin or Ethereum for a long-term purpose and you can sleep safe and sound. Don't disclose yourself somehow to take advantage to invest or get free coins from new ICOs or buy Altcoins ( Other Cryptos) as it still give you profit. But you must be watchful for this time as most altcoins really fail to fulfill its goal for longevity.
