Fiat currency is in a bubble, used to be backed by gold but not anymore, now people just believe it has value. Maybe it will take a government to collapse in the West for this bubble to pop or for metal arbitraging to speed up but it's going to pop at some point.

I'll believe it when I see it, projects tend to promise a lot but aren't really able to deliver on them.

Sophistacted Pump and dump. I really don't understand why Binance listed this unless they're somehow involved. It's just a big pre-mine with a lot of bugs and a shitty network. Bet those devs are laughing themselves silly right now.

I still hold some Waves and I think it will grow over the course of 2018 but it seems they came rather late with these implementations. There's a lot of competition in the BaaS and ICO game. Also there's now Universa, also a Russian blockchain like Waves that has been networking a lot. I can't really see Waves come out ahead, not meaning that it's doomed.

Why did Binance list BCN actually? Did they pay enough money and that was it or is there an actual reason? I don't know the coin really but it looks rather scammy especially since it suffers from huge network problems.

I can give you one usefull site: Investopedia (google it). I started with TA doing support/resistance trading on altcoins, you can pay for courses and such or you can just google whatever you don't get and keep researching. Maybe join a group (telegram, discord?) that has active traders from whom you can learn.

I personally think team's are the most important, and not necessarily their track record. Although its helpfull if they have launched succesfull businesses before, I find that some of these people can be rather arrogant as they also don't view crypto very seriously and its more a cash grab to them and they sell their shit-idea wrapped in fancy credentials. Scam ICO's often have fake teammembers, its good to actually reach out to the people that are listed and ask about their involvement with the project, I could have saved myself some money had I done that. They also have bad grammar on their website and whitepaper, poorly articulated idea's and business models. Also even if it does seem reputable you should be carefull, just because a ''legit business'' launches an ICO doesn't mean they have the investors best interest at heart, often insider deals are made with personal friends/family and colleagues that get a far better deal than you and only care to flip their stack ASAP on an exchange leaving you bagholding.

Some things are definitely in a bubble, I wouldn't say all of them though. Its still really hard to tell what gives a coin/token value and how we can calculate this. Also I think alot of economist just say what's most obvious, ofcourse there's a bubble, its tech. Bubble's aren't bad though, we're just exploring the value of these networks related to their future impact which is only natural really. It's pretty easy to keep shouting its a bubble (obviously it is) but if any of these economists could actually give proof of real evaluations that's when I'll listen to what they have to say, other than that they're just playing an ''I told you so'' game which is immature as fuck.

Taking out the initial investment is what I'd do, the rest is profit wether it declines or goes up, its good to dissasociate yourself from the short term price swings like that. If you think this has significant longterm impact than you could also consider taking out half the initial investment, so you have more of a stack to sit on, however, I'd personally take profit. I can't really give advice, nobody really can, but I gave you a suggestion.

This question gets asked way to much, I suggest looking trough post history to find threads similar and their answers. The tape is on repeat at this forum. Also why ask random people on the internet? If you have to ask whether its a right time to buy you obviously don't know what you're buying in the first place.

He also didn't participate in the dotcom bubble and made some good points, if you really believe in BTC, then in his opinion, you are far better off shorting the US Dollar than to gamble on whats going to replace it. He says that emerging technologies seldom make people a lot of money, and that you we're better off shorting the things it replaces than to bet on which company or coin is going to make it.

So many similar projects have gone before, I don't like social media myself and I don't think the idea is very good.

Increase their rank in crypto, what? You mean on this forum? And a bounty task becoming to much? Its likely the easiest work you will find on this planet. No risk no reward. There's my encouragement, stop being so scared.

He probably botted your account, so any money that goes in gets automatically send out. No sorry, you can try, but it will be in vain and you'd lose only more money.

By paying them a hefty listing fee.

Nice job shilling your bags, I had a good chuckle reading that list.

I get it with bounties because you're really doing some work in exchange for something. Aidrop KYC doesn't make any sense at all however.

First mover in smart-contract platforms. Also every coin that does well on ethereum makes ethereum do well. With the idea that smart-contract platforms could break open trillion dollar markets the valuation isn't completely ridiculous. It might be early however and there are some decent alternatives.

I can get that its worth it, however its still impressive someone can manage so many bounties.. having to post/retweet/like 200 different campagnes every day?! That takes some serious micro and macro management skills.

Why not just ask your bounty manager?
