Every person that I know who invested in ICOs seems to be always following the same pattern:

If the ICO has well recognised team members, who have LinkedIn, twitter, Facebook and are known in their industry then it's safe to invest.

If the ICO doesn't have a PERCEIVED good team, if the team is made by 'youngsters', people with no industry experience who may have the necessary knowledge then it's not good to invest. 'The project certainly has no chance' says a lot of them.


Could someone tell me why we underrate young people, especially those below 30 years of age? I mean, look at most successful companies:

-Facebook - founded by university students (below 21 years of age)
-Google - founded by Larry Page and Sergery Bin both 25 years old
-Apple - founded by Steve Jobs at 20 years of age, and Steve Wozniak who was 25
-Microsoft - founded by Bill Gates at 20 years of age
-Amazon - founded by Bezos at 30 years old
-eBay - founded by Pierre Omidyar at 28 years old
-Ethereum - founded by a 20 years old Vitalik Buterin
-TRON Foundation - founded by a 28 years old Justin Sun

Should we go further?
-Dolce & Gabbana - founded by Stefano Gabbana at 23 and Domenico Dolce at 27
-Barclays Bank - founded in 1690 by a 21 years old
-Rolex - founded by 2 brothers of 24
-Chanel - founded by Coco Chanel when she was 27
and the list goes on!

The reason we have so many sh*tcoins is because we have some oldies and grandpas who release a token, exchange everything to Ethereum asap and token dies because nobody cares about the project. Where is the dedication? They do not contribute to the vision of the Blockchain and the only reason they exist is because some investors decide to go with them, unvisionary people who call themselves "innovative". Those old guys who are master of manipulation and know what to tell you even if that means lying to change your opinion about them.

Before you throw words, no, I don't have an ICO and I didn't have an ICO. It's just observation. Invest in the young & innovation because they are in grade to build the future for the next generations!

We have many new people on the forum so I write this to make sure everyone knows the most important thing: who is Satoshi Nakamoto.
Bitcointalk was founded by Satoshi Nakamoto who also founded Bitcoin. But was bitcoin a bitcoin before being a bitcoin?
It will make sense in a few moments.


Things you must know: Satoshi Nakamoto is an anonymous and doesn’t refer to one person, it refers to a group of people. You can’t make bitcoin famous all by yourself, can you? Even if you had the knowledge to create such a system, how can you market it in 2009 to make it have value? People just went through financial crisis, they wouldn’t believe in a digital coin, would they? Even if bitcoin started on deep web, what criminal would accept 'bitcoin' instead of real cash? It is logically a group of people behind it. Still we must appreciate their mastermind!

It all started in 1998 when Nick Szabo (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nick_Szabo ) invented BIT GOLD, a decentralized digital currency. NINETY-NINETY-EIGHT. Some people reading this weren't even born.

Have you ever heard ‘If Bitcoin is Gold 2.0, Litecoin is digital silver’? Going back to our question ‘was bitcoin a bitcoin before being a bitcoin?’ we can say it wasn’t. In fact, it was a bit gold. It is so clear that the inventors wanted to make a ‘digital value’ just like gold is in our physical world, and they succeeded! 

Szabo is denying being Satoshi yet there are no public research papers where ‘Satoshi Nakamoto’ could access to inspire himself from Szabo. Furthermore, in 2008 it seems that Szabo wrote a comment on his blog regarding creating his currency. bitcoin was founded later in 2009. Nothing suspicious?

Plot twist: He is right. Szabo is not the only person behind Satoshi Nakamoto. There are other people including some who passed away, a $5 billion Australian ‘computer researcher’ who apparently stole the bitcoins from one of the founders, and many others.

But wait! Is Ethereum something else completely separated from bitcoin? Guess what, Mr. Szabo is also the first person to invent the term 'smart contract' which WAS NEVER USED before Ethereum. Nothing suspicious?
We are living the highest and best planned scheme ever yet it's so beautiful....

Hey guys,

I am using binance as a result of delays on Coinbase and other exchanges in getting verified. Is this the reason Binance is so successful?
What is actually the main reason?
It seems that Binance was founded in 2017 and by 2018 it became the most successful exchange. Coinbase was founded in 2012 and Kraken in 2011 yet they failed to achieve what Binance has achieved.
From a business point of view, what is the reason Binance achieved so much?

One friend introduced me to Good and Bad balance. According to this theory or 'view of life', in the world there must be equal amount of good as bad things happening. The problem is that Good weights more than Bad since it's easier to do bad things.
Imagine it like that: 1KG of feathers (these are bad things) are put on a balance with 1KG of metal balls (these are good things and heavier). The number of feathers needs to be higher than the number of metal balls to make the balance being equal.

I think that we must try to do good things and if we fail and end up doing bad things, just don't blame yourself. You contributed to the other side of the balance.
That's why some entrepreneurs are the good guys (Elon Musk, Richard Branson, Steve Jobs, etc.) and others are bad guys (Jordan Belfort [the actual 'wofl of wallstreet' who created the penny-stock scam], Brian Kim [created a ponzi scheme], and many more).

Even the good guys did some bad stuff. Steve Jobs pushed low paid wages to his employees, Richard Branson was jailed for tax evasion in 1971 and currently he doesn't own a British citizenship for tax purposes, Elon Musk... Elon Musk is the type of guy who would put by accident the AI in his toaster.

Let me know your point of view on this balance of good and bad
