After a few months of development, ICO projects that I know are dead and no longer interested by investors. This has made this type of investment no longer as popular as it once was, and people feel more anxious when choosing to invest. In the past, I have earned from major ICO projects like Bancor, Adex, Utrust or Centra, but all have now become shitcoin and no longer have a stable price increase as before.

Well said, bitcoin is still in $9k, from the price of $3900 before when the pandemic is still existing it goes up to $6k and it pumped up to $10k when bitcoin halving started, honestly I disappoint to the price of the bitcoin when bitcoin halving happens because I really thought that it will go up to $13k and it will give me large profit. I invested when the price of the bitcoin is almost $8.8k and it doesn't give me much profit when $10k happened. I am still hoping that bitcoin could reach higher within this year. We are not almost done and everything can still happen.

If you belong to those people who invested in bitcoin at a lower value, then it is normal for you to be happy when the price goes up.

Those people are happy when the price goes up because they can finally sell their investment after making a profit. Those are the buyers in the dip that you are talking about, they bought their investment when the price is low, they bought as many as they can.

It has not become because it is there from the beginning . I mean without exchanges we cannot decide the prices for an asset regardless of its total supply/circulating supply/usage in day-to-day life. So, to find out the real value of coin, we must need a platform where buyers and sellers will decide based on demand and supply. Here supply may not get impacted by the project's main reason but demand is purely depending on what solution that project is going to provide.

So, exchanges are just an integral part of this crypto space from the beginning.

Big possibilities as there are already businesses who caters the used of bitcoin as a form
of their payment process.
If more and more big and small companies will start adopting this system it will bring the
hype and it will be recognized globally.


Long holdings to maximized the profits if you have spare money to invest, knowing that there's
a big potential that new ATH will be achieved in the future.

Buying signals or being a part of signal group has more negativities so it is better to analyse the market on our own and try to execute the trades.Don't be in a hurry to complete more trades, just a good trade is better than 10 trades with profits and losses.People have shared some guidance here about analysing the market and also lot of online courses available to learn more professionally about crypto trading.

The OP paid a price in exchange for experience. I don't think there's any veteran member here who didn't make a silly investment mistake too as a newbie. We all did. And that's the badge of honour we got in exchange for the experience we share today. So, it's left for the newbies to borrow a leaf from that or go ahead and make their own mistakes themselves. It's the same way you won't catch me dead playing faucets.

On OP's last line, the use-case or utility of a project is what informs my judgment this day going into any crypto investment. Any project without a use-case won't get my attention, no matter what hype it attracts.

Ang tunay na kalaban mo sa trading for me ay yung oras, kung hindi ka makapag hintay, that is the time na matatalo ka. Way back before, tinry ko din mag deposit sa binance at mag trade, I learned the word scalping sa mga facebook groups kung saan pwede kang kumita in a short term. Mukha lang siyang madali dahil sa tingin natin, need lang natin bantayan ang market but napakadami palang dapat aralin about market trends at graph. Kung gusto natin kumita ng mabilis, kailangan din natin mag laan ng oras para matuto ng mga signals. Kung hindi, mas magandang mag hodl nalang tayo at magbenta kapag mataas na ang price. Dito, sukatan lang ng pasensya kung mag eearn tayo. Usually, bumabagay sa mga katulad ko na hindi full time trader.

There's unemployment because there are only few business industries that are opening at this time, and some even are not opening based on its full capacity since the word "social distancing" is necessary at this time.

It's very unfortunate especially those who only rely on their job for a living and they loss that job because of the pandemic.

We can use USA as a basis, if the unemployment rate increases, that would simply mean it's also happening in other countries, and maybe even worst.
However, it will not last, it will only be temporary as eventually our government will figure out to recover the economy despite of the pandemic.

Emotion needs to be well played when you are inside this market, volatile movements can harmed your investment if you don't managed your
fear and greed.



Success depends from how things been done by the team, if there are real usages then potential that many investors will join in and support the project.

yes, I record all my trading activities...
I use Google spreadsheets to record all my transactions, starting from buying and selling. recording all transactions that you do is very important so that you know whether you profit or lose, especially for those of you who trade on more than 1 crypto asset.

You are right either way malalaman din nila yung totoo kung naniwala man sila kaagad sayo then good for them may mga ibang tao naman kaagad na nakaka-amoy ng scam dahil sa mga karanasan nila dun naman sa mgab taong hindi maniniwala sayo at sumubok pa din may araw din na mawawala yung pera nila kasi nabulag sila sa payout na nakikita nila, tama din kasi ang sinabi ng iba na kahit alam nila na scam sasali pa din sila kasi may mga naloloko din sila sa referral o komisyon ito yung mga tao na hindi mo makokonbinse kahit anong gawin mo kasi kung tutuusin part din sila ng scam. For me the first two kinds of people I mentioned is the ones who should be save kasi kung alam na nila mangyayari mababawasan at mababawasan yung mabibiktima nila sa mga investment scheme na ito.

I have a friend, seriously not my story but this friend basically is more of a panicky type of person. This happened during the ATH of Bitcoin and crypto in late 2017. He got some ETH and he wants to sell it but the youtube guy says don't sell it cause it will go higher still. Then comes January 2018, big mistake he said that he did not wait for ETH to fall down farther so he sold with a little profit. I told him that is the nature of trading, you need to be very careful.

The real success of a project will take time for sure but the real problem is most of the project in 2020 doesn't even recover at any rate after their initial dump so holding those dead tokens doesn't make any sense.So hold best tokens and coins irrespective of the current market value.If you are going to hold every coin you invested then you will end up with lot of dead projects sitting in your wallets in few years.
