I see that you already have activity 95 and absolutely no merit. Earlier, before the introduction of the system of merit, you would be able to get the rank of full member in a month. It turns out that you write only low-quality messages, no one has given you any merit. I think, in a few years, when you do not get to the rank of full member, you change your mind about this system of merit.
In general, I have previously thought about this. I waited for people to ripen to such an idea. If someone does not want others to quickly reach high ranks in this forum, you can simply extend the time between ranks. This vseravno will be better than actually prohibit their promotion at all, leaving only loopholes for their own.

Unfortunately, in the last 8 - 9 months the situation in this regard has become much worse. ICO campaigns, as necessary, change the conditions and amount of payment, suspend, postpone their campaigns and even do not inform the numerous participants of the ICO generosity campaign. Now, communication with them, as a rule, is transferred to the social network Telegram, earlier all was conducted in the flow of the campaign itself. They began to think up payment in their wallets, as a rule, it still does not work until the end. In general, now the problems have increased and it has become very fun. We do not have time to monitor their innovations and inventions. And many of them only harm our normal work. Including payment has to wait for six or more months, and sometimes do not pay. For example, the TIHOSAY campaign, in which the ICO was held on May 5, indicated that the sale of tokens had been postponed until December 31, 2018. We wait. I doubt that we will wait for their THO tokens.

If someone is indifferent to their identification data, they can transfer them into the hands of potential scammers, without even asking on what grounds they require this data. The KYC check only concerns investors, that is, those who invest their money in various projects and they can be obtained illegally, and such investments are made to launder these dirty money .. Why do some agree to provide copies of their documents and other identification data to absolutely strangers , who just asked about it? Are you indifferent to the fact that tomorrow these data will appear on public display on the Internet? I personally do not want this and therefore I do not participate in ICO projects in principle, where the KYC test is applied or can be applied.

In many, participation in generosity companies ICO can begin as a hobby, then it can turn into work if the generosity campaigns of ICO have entrained you and if they started to bring you a good income. Therefore, everything depends on the specific circumstances of life. Many, I know that I started to try my work at the generosity companies ICO, and then stayed on this forum for a long time.

The campaign of the generosity campaign ICO, I think, is more effective and brings a better income than in the air cadres. There, I believe, just wasting time. Although there are a lot of frauds in ICO signatures companies, however it is more attractive to participate in them. The rewards in them are already more solid. However, with your rank of junior member in comparison with other ranks, you will not get many tokens.

First of all, you need to proceed from the importance of the project on your coin or token. If a coin or a token develops and it is indicated in its road map, then this coin or token should be kept regardless of whether it grows in value or not. If a coin or token project does not develop, then of course they should be sold as unpromising.

The coins you mentioned are quite promising. Therefore, in this situation, there is nothing left to do, how to expect the rise of the crypto-currency market. Together with the market, then your coins will also rise. This is probably the only true way so far, what can you do to protect yourself from loss in the crypto currency. Of course, you invested at a very inopportune time, when all the coins significantly rose in price after bitcoin. However, no one is immune from these mistakes.

This is still the problem. We, as signatories of the ICO signature campaign, are required to provide our confidential data and copies of our passports to persons who themselves are not identified anywhere and are likely to be fraudsters themselves. In addition, we do not even know whether they are entitled to require the participants of the signature campaign to pass a KYC test, because we do not invest in their projects.
I personally try not to participate in signature companies where KYC is possible, however attractive the ICO project might seem. For me it's important.

For some, participation in companies of generosity ICO can be work, for others - a hobby. It all depends on your attitude to this occupation and your efforts. However, if you are serious about crypto currency and the possibility of getting a decent earnings on this forum, then this can be considered a job. In the end, it depends on the results. If from such a hobby you get more profit than from your main job, then it may be time to reconsider the concepts with the work of the hobby.

I think that investors simply learn from their own and others' mistakes. They have become smarter and do not invest their money in everything, especially in those ICO projects where they promise big profits. We can say that the time of the "gold rush" with ICO projects is over. Investors are now more selective. In addition, in the conditions of the fall of the market, now is not the best time for holding the ICO.

Ethereum and litecoin are both good coins and will continue to develop and grow in price. However, I would choose ethereum, this coin is more in demand and, probably, more promising. Already, many consider ethereum a candidate for leaders of crypto currency after bitcoin. On the ethereum platform, more than 90 percent of the ICO is spent, this coin is needed for any movement of new tokens. So I would invest in ethereum.

We can say that we have no reason to believe that the ICO market this year will fall quantitatively or qualitatively. This year, a lot of ICO projects have appeared, so this market will continue to develop. Most likely, this year many states will introduce regulation of ICO projects and frauds in them will dramatically decrease. This will have a very positive impact on the entire ICO process, their popularity will increase dramatically.

No, if the reduction in the price of tokens is a consequence of the general fall of the crypto-currency market, it will be wrong to sell tokens. After a while, the market will again rise and your tokens will also grow in value. It's another matter if, when the market increases or even with its relative stability, the token goes down in price, then first of all you need to find out the reason for this behavior of the token and, depending on it, make a decision. If the token project itself develops, and the reasons for the fall are temporary, then it is possible that it should not be sold, but if the reasons are global, then it is better to sell this token immediately.

The price of coins and tokens largely depends on the price of bitcoin. And bitcoin because of its great volatility will never stand still. It will constantly rise and fall in price and while this will happen until its price is formed due to supply and demand. Therefore, he can not always be either green or red. This color will constantly alternate.

This, of course, is abnormally waiting for the reward for participating in the generosity campaigns of the ICO for about six months, but this has happened recently. I, for example. participated in the VVToken campaign and this ICO campaign was completed on 01/05/2018. Till now no tokens have been paid. In their stream there is a message that payments can be expected after the sixth of June. We have to wait. Maybe they will pay, and maybe they will not pay it.

In February, the bitcoin rate was also about 8,000 dollars? Now May, and bitcoin also has about the same price. We can assume that the bitcoin rate is stable. Why should the crypto currency be dying?
Well, seriously, decentralized crypto currency has always had, and probably will always have high volatility and therefore will continue to rise and fall periodically. Unlike the usual market, such price fluctuations of the crypto currency are very large, therefore this behavior should be treated calmly. Over the recession of the crypto-currency market, there will always be a rise. In this case, our prospective coins and tokens are even added to the cost.

I do not think that this year the cost of ethereum can reach $ 15,000. This is unrealistic anyway. The price of Ethereum is linked to the bitcoin rate. In order for ethereum to have such a value, it is necessary that bitcoin has a price of more than $ 150,000. This year bitcoin is not capable of this yet. Of course, ethereum is a very promising and even undervalued coin. For the leader of the Altkoins, its current rate of $ 704, this is very small. Ethereum will grow this year, but its more real price by the end of the year is 2000-2500 dollars.

The arguments that the volatility of the crypto currency is not at all a problem is unconvincing. So far, due to the large volatility of the crypto currency, and primarily bitcoin, the states are very critical of it and this is one of the reasons for their rather weak and slow legalization.
It may also be that, at large price values, large volatility of bitcoin can lead to its complete or partial depreciation. If bitcoin will be very expensive, a sharp drop in it with normal volatility, if it coincides with negative information, can lead to panic that will work as a domino effect and bitcoin may depreciate in one or several days. Is this not worthy of attention and is not a problem related to volatility?

Zimbabwe very often appears in the lists of countries that completely prohibit crypto currency. However, it turns out that such a ban is effective only in the banking system, citizens can fully engage in crypto currency, if they do not appeal to banks. The prohibition within the banking system is ineffective.

To my mind. the best strategy is combining the retention of purchased coins or tokens, and their periodic sale and purchase on the market. Pure hold on the crypto currency is not always effective, sometimes coins and tokens return to the same price positions after a certain time, where they were earlier. Therefore, it is best to use combined tactics: with explicit price rises, sell at least half of these coins, and when they drop significantly in price - buy them again. So you can greatly increase your profits. Such tactics do not require significant effort and time, but are very effective.
