For me, you are a very lucky guy if you were able to get $100 per month. I stopped joining them 3 months ago because all I receive are coins with no value and up until now it doesn't have any value. Although I am not sure on what is happening on airdrop now, but I am sure that it is the same or its getting worst.  I also advise others not to participate on airdrop that requires KYC.

I agree. Knowledge is really needed on crypto. Investing right away without even researching can result to lost money. Believe me, I am on the same situation before and I learned it the hard way. I stared trading with the knowledge on how to use the exchange. Obviously, that is not enough. Even if you have the highest capital, the market trend will eat you up if you are not knowledgeable and aware of the coin updates (community,progress etc)

Upon reading the post, I was saddened by the fact that the market is not going up anymore. It keeps on going down and will be stable at a low price. I was glad that I was able to sell at a high price before the market stumbles. What I am doing right now is to take advantage of the situation. The bear market could be a great opportunity to increase our portfolio. It much better to have that mindset than being negative through out the year.

I don't think so. I don't see any reason why would bitcoin replace banks. We all know that majority of our legal transactions are being handled by banks and crypto or bitcoin doesn't have anything to do with it. I fail to see the connection between the two. Bitcoin are used for payments and transactions while banks are worth more than that. Even with the technology bitcoin has, it will never replace banks.

You only need merit to rank up. Make sure you will do quality post and someone will recognize it and give you merit. You don't need to worry as it is proven that the people here are appreciative to those who post at a high quality. The forum needs to do it because there are a lot of Jr.Member accounts and they need to filter it out. Life is not over for you since there's still social media campaign that you can be part of even if your rank is a newbie.

I hate to admit it, but the main reason why a coin value drops after it got listed is that the bounty hunters are already dumping their coin. Give it 2-3 months for the coin value to recover but if there are no changes after that, maybe the coin is weak or there is not that much demand for the coin. Sometimes, the coin popularity is important because the demand is much higher for popular coins.

For me, that will be too low if you are planning to hodl different types of coin. Since you mentioned trading, I would assume that you want to hodl different coins. If you have limited capital, your decision making will not be at its best since you are more focus on maintaining your capital than taking risk to gain. I would suggest that you invest your money on one coin and once the coin pumps up, sell it so you would have enough capital to trade and buy multiple coins.

I agree. The market right now is really down and there is no movement aside from downwards. Also, the hype on crypto is not that much compared to the last bull run. I think the investors are playing safe and not willing to invest because of their previous experience. The number of scam ICO increased this year and that plays a major role on the coin price as many investors already dumped their coin because they are afraid to lose their money.

I don't think that the bull run will happen this coming December. The market never recovered from the slumps. If you think that a 5% increase on price is a recovering market, then you are mistaken. The price keeps on dropping and its more than 10% of its price. I think we are far from the bull run. Give it another 6 months and what happened last January can happen again.

For me, I always check the sale progress of the ICO. If the soft cap has been reached, that is the time that I will do some research about the team working for the ICO. It is much better if the progress is near the hard cap because I already determine that the ICO has sold enough coins to push through on the listings. I don't trust those ICO that doesn't have a sale progress.

I never think that bounty hunters got their token for free. The discrimination on bounty hunters will always be there if those investors doesn't stop blaming bounty hunters on the low coin price. How sure are they that it is the bounty hunter dumping their coin? There are thousands of coins being sold and there is no way that all of them are coming from bounties.

To be honest, what I want for ICO's is to be transparent on the tokens sold. It should be on every ICO website. Investors have the right to know if the coin they plan to purchase is being needed.Only a few websites are transparent when it comes to sale progress and it makes me wonder why they are hiding it.

I think this is one of the worst month in terms of the dollar value of my portfolio. It was at its lowest but I am still looking forward to another price increase from Ethereum. Hopefully, it can go up to $350 USD by the end of October so  everyone who invested on it will get their money worth. Prices will go down again when they dump their ethereum but it will not be as low as $250. This month might be a blessing in disguise if we were a bit patient.

Without a doubt, Ethereum is better than BCH. Regardless of the product and services offered,  BCH doesn't have much hype and popularity compared to Ethereum. It feels like BCH was dead to be honest. Don't get me wrong, I know that the BCH is one of the established coins but it's not cause that much attention on the big investors that is why it keeps on going down due to low demand. Ethereum is has a worst price drop but it will have the biggest comeback among all coins.

I never expect Ripple to pump up and be that good despite the brutal bear market. Some says the price pump are just caused by big investors and it will not last just like other coin that has the same incident. Nevertheless, I am happy for those who benefited from it. Ethereum on the other hand will surely bounce back from its defeat, give it time and it will widen the gap between XRP and ETH. Same thing ETH at #2 while XRP is at #3.

The last token I receive from bounty was a few months a ago. It was from Sp8de, this was handled by ColorlessK . The bounty was great but the rewards were too small for me to sell. I am still hodling the coin waiting for it to be good enough to sell. No matter how hard you try to spot a legit campaign, you will still find an ICO that will end up being a scam. So what I do is to join short term campaigns so I can have more campaigns to join in a year.

I would buy Ethereum if I have that money but it is your decision to make so you have to do your own research. Check the activity of the coin and the price history. Don't rely on hearsay but rely on facts based on what you have researched. It will also help to seek advise to traders but make sure that he/she is someone who know and you can trust.  

I will still recommend investing on ICO's because of the fact that it make you earn a lot of money IF its successful. You will not earn that much if you purchase a coin on the exchange but if its coming from an ICO investment, the money you can earn is good as doubled because of the bonuses. You just have to find a good ICO and be careful on those scam ICO's.  It is hard to find legit ICO nowadays. 

Yes. It is needed to filter out the quality bounty hunters and decline those not so good bounty hunters. Rules can also help detect cheaters. A lot of people abused bounties in the past and it results to poor distribution among those who played fair. Those people who were using multiple accounts should be banned because its not just about cheating, its all about being professional and being fair.

Yes. BTC dominance can happen and it can be beneficial to everyone in the crypto world. Increase on bitcoin's price can really affect the alternate coins per dollar value. Although this could result into some alternate coins to disappear because of the aggressive competition, this will filter low quality coin and the bar for excellence on crypto will be raised. Quality over quantity. We don't need that many alts.
