1  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: How to know if Bounty is scam? on: September 14, 2018, 11:43:24 AM
The only way to find out is to look there website, there dev team and the project itself. Sometimes project claims of giving $200+ worth of tokens in bounties, I highly doubt those kind of claims. It's not like there's not any ICO who can give this much in bounties, but still making those kind of claims even before listing is sounds fake
2  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: wasted 3-4 months in bounty and at end got nothing ?? on: September 14, 2018, 11:38:50 AM
I would say the same that 95% of airdrops and bounties now a days are scam or fake. And those who aren't fake, they give tokens which are worth pennies only. Only few of the bounties are worth investing your time and they pay you really well. From feb till now I haven't involved in any bounty, just the airdrop and have earned almost $1200 worth of ETH.

Starting this month is the first CN coin to have a mobile wallet, also new tech named uncle mining will be released in Q3 and blocktree sharding protocol is scheduled for 2019.
IMO, the most important property of Masari is not the mobile wallet. It is the fact that Masari is a Monero fork, much like LTC is to BTC. So Masari has privacy features by default. They try to improve on the mining process and possibly implement blocktree sharding, in an attempt to improve scalability.

Given the smallish marketcap, I have to say it seem like a really decent coin, probably worth looking a little bit more into it and maybe even investing. Thanks for sharing.   

There's one another coin PRIV - https://privcy.io
They are also targeting the anonymous transactions and have some good features like staking in the web wallet itself. Never seen any project who supports staking on web wallet. They have good developers and are working right on the money. They haven't done any ICO and rather doing 20 rounds of AD. Must check them out.

Knowing that we all suffered through this bearish trend and now that we expect it's almost over it is the right time to buy ETH !
ether is at a very low price for now since it is stable at a price of $275-$300. It was about $800 3-4 months back and it might recover the price soon.
Considering it's ATH this must be a great price to buy some ether as it will return some good gains.


And now you'll get even better position at ETH, if you haven't bought any at that time. It dipped to $170 and right now at $200, so $75-80 less than the time you posted this thread. For long term obviously ETH is going to grow multiple times and it'll break it's ATH in couple of years unless any bull run comes like last year. There are so many people who believes in ETH technology and going to buy it on such dips.
5  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: ERC721 vs ERC1155: Ethereum NFTs Comparison on: September 14, 2018, 11:13:45 AM
I didn't looked in details about both of those standards, but by the comparison you've shown it seems that ERC1155 clearly has advantages over ERC721, in fact it seems that ERC1155 is built on top of ERC721.
By the way there's one more standard going on currently which is advised by POLYMATH tokens team, ERC1400 for security tokens. I think you should check that out too.
6  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is crypto bubble bursting finally? on: September 14, 2018, 11:08:18 AM
When there's volatility in the market, people tend to use these kind of words, especially the media persons. They create doubts in the mind of investors and because of which small investors start losing there positions on the coins/tokens and sell at loss. This situation will improve with market maturing in the next couple of years, and when real use cases of crypto starts to show up.
7  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Airdrop !! is it worth it ! on: September 14, 2018, 11:00:27 AM
Yes most of the airdrops now a days are fake, full of scam, time waste for everyone. Even if some airdrops provide few tokens, those tokens price are in pennies when they got listed on exchanges. But if you do good research before joining any airdrop, you can easily save yourselves some time and get involved in some good airdrops at the same time. I start by looking the project website and there team members. If any project is claiming that you'll get $100 worth of tokens, basically set a price on there airdrop tokens, 99% those claims are false. I have been involved in many airdrops who claim that and never get even 10% value of what they claim.
8  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: ETH is recovering? on: September 14, 2018, 10:47:43 AM
ETH is the most widely used dApp platform so it's not going anywhere, and after devs increases tx per second problem, it'll boom the price of the ETH on the upside. It's just a matter of time when ETH recovers from this drop and will be sitting around $500-600 by end of this year. And if by that time any bull run comes, then who knows if ETH can break it's all time high too.
9  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Different categories of coins and tokens - Invest Wisely on: September 05, 2018, 04:17:07 PM
Im not into a security token platform, I chase decentralized platform over controlled by the government. But up for you if you really interested to invest on centralized platform. As others said invest wisely.

I think govt will still like to have some control over decentralization, and that's why they'll try to declare most of the existing tokens or coins as security. Then all of them needs to become a security compliant. That's why I'm bullish on it.
So which category is your favorite among the mentioned?
10  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Different categories of coins and tokens - Invest Wisely on: September 05, 2018, 03:47:58 PM
Don't put all your eggs in one basket. Absolutely great thinking.

I wanted to tell you a bit more about POLY platform and STO coming on that platform.

Corl is the world’s first token to represent equity ownership in a company that provides revenue-sharing financing to high-potential early-revenue companies.

Unlike traditional tokens on the market, CRL is based on a profit-sharing model where investors receive a continuous stream of quarterly dividends in the form of ETH, based on future earnings of Corl.



That's great, I have heard about CORL platform but haven't checked on it yet. But if they are building STO on POLY, they should give dividends in the form of POLY tokens. It would be good for both CORL and POLY.
11  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Top crypto under $1... Good tech, too on: September 05, 2018, 03:12:11 PM
Ravencoin
XLM
ICX
ZIL
STEEM
Enigma
Polymath
Ox
Civic or TKY
HPB
MAN
REN
TOMO...

These are just some of the projects, I think are very solid under $1

I like that you have included POLY and HPB in it, those are some really good options under $1 currently. You should check PRIV too, targeting anonymous transactions and currently only at $0.02 and they didn't do any ICO whatsoever. They are airdropping 11M out of 21M coins to there community members.
12  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Different categories of coins and tokens - Invest Wisely on: September 05, 2018, 03:09:54 PM
Security tokens are not introduced very commonly till now in the crypto space. There might need a really long time to turn it into a common token, tough some like Poly started introducing themselves. What do you think?

I am bullish on security tokens for longer term. I feel POLY will do to security offerings what ETH done to dApps. I feel when US declares all tokens fall under SEC regulation, it'll create havoc in the current scenario and most of the platforms will be switched to security offerings platform. The only problem I see with POLY is that they are reliant on ETH and so have to deal with there own problems along with the same problem of slow transactions per sec which ETH are already facing.

I also believe that going ahead security tokens is the future and fully agree with you on the part that POLY must have there own blockchain to support faster transactions per second. Also it'll give them the freedom to implement a solution in there preferred manner. I am in there telegram group where many users are saying the same thing but I remember that there CMO replies that by all of your logic "Google should build there own internet".
I like that they have clear idea of what they are going to do going ahead and they have no plans whatsoever of creating another blockchain. Also they have high trust on ETH network and there developers.

Interesting quote that by Polymath's CMO. Ok, so we can clearly see it in a way that POLY is not going to develop it's own blockchain, not in a near future of 2-3 years atleast. After than time will tell if ETH can cope up with the other chains and with security tokens developed on POLY itself.

14  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Different categories of coins and tokens - Invest Wisely on: September 04, 2018, 06:46:18 PM
I am only 10 months old in this blockchain/crypto space. I have invested initially for the sake of taking quick profits, even saw 4x of my investment in jan 2018 but didn't book a profit and still HODLing onto my coins and tokens. I have started with $1000 investment and in the next subsequent dips in market, entered another $500-700. As of now my investment stands around $3500. And I'm now adding fiat of around $200 monthly.

I have learned about some really cool projects, they seems cool to me, I might be wrong though  Smiley
But what I have learned is that one should not HODL there entire investment in just similar altcoins. I have done a bit of my research and have divided the coins into different verticals/domains. If I have to add another $2-3k fiat in crypto, I would divide my portfolio into different verticals in crypto space.

Here are those verticals/domains:

1. Payment coins (BTC, LTC, NANO) - Both are targeting to be used as method of payment in the coming future. BTC would be first choice by returns from it will be low but steady. LTC could give 3-4x more gains than BTC but more risky than BTC.

2. Anonymous Coins (XMR, ZEC, DASH, PRIV) - Almost similar vertical as first except that these are basically have enhanced feature of making non-traceable anonymous transactions. Again I have written the coins as per the Lowest risk/returns to higher risk/returns as per my research. PRIV is the newest of all, only couple of months old. What I like most about them that they have not done any ICO to raise money and they are giving tokens for spreading news about them to there community members. More than 50% of tokens, around 11M of total 21M will be distributed for free.
Disclaimer: I hold around 20000+ PRIV.

3. Platform Tokens (ETH, XLM, NEO, IOST, ICX) - Platforms that allowed dApps to be built on them, thereby increasing the blockchain applications and need of there tokens, as a result price will increase. ETH and NEO are most favorable and they are here for quite some time now. Developers of both have already proved themselves every now and then.

4. Exchange Coins/Tokens (BNB, KCS, HT, GVT) - These coins or tokens will be generally used inside there own exchange to reduce the trading fee by some percentage (generally 50%). As paying in other crypto yields more fee, people generally who trade in exchanges will be paying fees in respective exchange coin. Also these exchanges do a quarterly buy back and burn of there tokens, thereby significantly increasing there price.

5. Social network coins/tokens (STEEM, MITH, GTO) - These coins will be used within the social network platform built around them. Many users can earn by simply posting/liking/replying to articles/images.

6. Security tokens (POLY) - Currently only polymath allows security tokens to be built on there platforms. As per SEC chief all ICO's can be deemed as security in the coming future, there's huge opportunity for polymath. I know of another ICO (MOBU), which are on the same line as POLY is but they're still in ICO stage so can't say much about it.

7. Crypto loan (SALT, NEXO, MoneyToken) - This is a quite new vertical and an interesting one. People can deposit there fiat and take fiat as loan. It will help the people who needs fiat money for smaller amount of time but don't want to sell there crypto holdings. It could be the next big thing in crypto space.

Besides these there are several projects which are trying to replace traditional businesses using blockchain, like replacing online e-commerce, taxi-booking services, online advertisement etc. I have some projects to research on this vertical too, but don't know where to put them at. Maybe I'll put them under traditional business replacements projects (doesn't sounds cool though, suggest me if you can think of any good name).

These are the verticals as per my knowledge and research done yet, there could be many others which I have surely missed. I will update my post as and when i'll come across them.


Your research project is quite amazing and need serious commendation, you have done a good job, however i personally don't like crypto loan verticals because of the high risk involve in running it,many of them have failed in recent times.

Yes agree with you on this, ETHLend is one example of the same. Not able to implement the crypto loan correctly. Also the time taken by them to give a loan is also on the higher side. Though NEXO platform seems good to me, not sure about MoneyToken though (never a fan of Roger Ver).
15  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: $1800 to invest on alt coins on: August 30, 2018, 06:35:42 PM
What are some altcoins that have the potential for the most profit? I've been playing it safe and now want to invest in some coins that have potential to x the most

This is a question which so many keeps on asking and everyone is not that good in researching about the project and coins. I found this article today where different types of coins have been explained in detail, it will help you in taking some good decisions about where you can think of investing the money.

Here's the link - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4964722

Must read it
16  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: If you have now 500$ for invest? Where you invest? on: August 30, 2018, 06:32:57 PM
Those who are new to this crypto space, I'd suggest you all to go through this article once:
https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=4964722

I really liked how different types of coins and tokens have been explained in it. Doesn't matter if you are experience investor or a newbie, just give a look to the article. You'll appreciate it.

Disclaimer: It's not my article, I found it really explanatory and that's why sharing it.
17  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Is Ethereum best for investment? on: August 30, 2018, 06:27:39 PM
I would take ETH anytime at this price. I have entered some positions on ETH at around $260 and I'm happy to get it on ETH at this price. The most widely used platform in every sense is ETH, and there devs are working on improving it every day. Vitalik is one hell of a genius guy and always focus on making the blockchain accessible to all and not just trying to increase the price of the ETH.
18  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Average time for a bounty project on: August 30, 2018, 06:23:10 PM
Today there are many different bounty projects. Time for projects is also different. According to you, how many time the most appropriate for a bounty project?

There's nothing anything as average time in any project or ICO bounties. It depends on the project and what they are promising. If the project is not fulfilling there promises, then there's nothing you can do much about it. You just wait for your bounties to be paid. Bounty period can go anywhere from couple of months to 6 months.
19  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Types of coins and tokens in crypto space on: August 27, 2018, 04:03:15 PM
That's some really good way to put different categories of coins. I have always divided it into 3 categories, but never thought of classifying it to other levels. I think I have almost one coin of each category except crypto lending. I think there's one more token or project called moneyToken which is also in this segment only. But as Roger ver is involved with that project, I'll stay away from it. Smiley
20  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: Good time to buy ETH now? on: August 24, 2018, 07:03:23 PM
ETH is one of the strongest contender of being in the same level as BTC is and it's holding that level for so long now. ETH has solid dev team which is working tirelessly to improve the ETH transactions per second count, and when that happens, then ETH will rise again to it's ATH. I am a firm believer in ETH technology and bought at current dips to support the ETH project. I'll HODL it for atleast 3-4 years.
