The way to invest in difficult times is to spend more! Buying at the top when the market is booming is the wrong time to buy, get everything now as it is guaranteed to go up when the market recovers. It's only bad if you're a day trader and rely on crypto for fiat rather than a regular job.

In the first half of this year i plan to accumulate and hodl! This is the advice of many experienced and successful investors to buy when the market is down and if you want to sell it should be at the top. This is a good bear market, do lots of research and buy the good ones, hodl until end of the year

Not really worth holding because the price of dash is already high s it will rise up slowly, pick a cheap coin with high rise potential. XSPEC has been dumped badly due to a dev scandal. This has been resolved and you can get 2 coins for the price of 1 (like bitcoincash). Get xspec and hodl for the airdrop!

This is just the start of things to come. First south korea will launch an official coin, then japan, china, and the rest of the world will follow suit. Mass adoption is on the way everyone. This low dip is probably the last chance to get in on the action. Bitcoin boom will start soon and the other alts will follow

Japan is a crypto friendly country with a strong economy, as they develop further with this new technology the other countries will join in too. The youth all over the world are investing in bitcoin and altcoins, they know what will happen in the years to come. Buy and hodl!

The problem with ethereum is that a lot of people invested their eth into ICOs and now these companies are cashing out. Good investors are likely to hodl but not companies, they need the funds so eth will not rise while the ICOs continue to cash out.

Germany should be on that list as it has an advanced economy and is allowing bitcoin to trade there. Also, LISK is from germany and is going to be the bigger and better version of ethereum. They are releasing their product this year and everything is pointing to the sky!

NEO is already releasing ICOs on it's platform so it is proven technology while others are still planning and developing. It is the only competitor to ethereum right now and NEO has a big advantage in China. This is definitely one to watch in 2018, it will jump high during the next bull run

Never seen a bounty campaign ask for a deposit! If it was in the initial post on the bounty thread then it would be ok, unusual but acceptable. Too many scammers these days, we need to be more careful otherwise it's just a waste of time and money. Thanks for sharing this news so we can keep away from them

Finish college would be the best option, but it depends on how much you made already. If a bitcoin millionaire then just quit and enjoy life Otherwise, bitcoin is too volatile so stay in College and get a stable job so you can pay bills and buy more bitcoin!

This is true, their community is one of the strongest in the crypto world and this is likely to be the main reason for it's success. The development team is active and their funding will last a long time. When smart contracts is released then it will rise into a top privacy coin

There was a lot of FUD in Korea which was at the beginning of this bear market and i guess people didn't catch up with the new news that it crypto is not banned in Korea, in fact it is being adopted rather well compared to most countries. China, Korea, Japan, and others in the Far East will lead the way when the bull market returns.

The beluga pay doesn't sound good! It is sad when the ICO companies either doesn't pay or simply closes shop and walks off. It means all those weeks or even months are wasted promoting a project with no reward. Just have to hope that now and then a good one comes along to make up for the losses.

Forbes knows whats right, this downwards trend cannot go on much further and the rebound will be intense. Going back to $20,000 will definitely be achievable and then surpass it this time around. At least we know at what level the ATH is, because the next step is going to be $30k!

It is really difficult for both ICO companies and investors because it is not easy to pick out a good one from all the different choices out there. One of the important factors to ensure it is not a scam is for the company to have public and transparent details about the staff. Youtube interviews and photos at conferences will help with this regard

I'm sure they won't be the last to get arrested, these ICOs had better start delivering on their promises otherwise the FBI will come knocking on their door. Too many are promoting with fake claims as it is too easy to get away with it. This is the start of a cleaner and fairer ICO system

Depends if you going to hodl or day trade. For long term investments pick NEO and LISK, both of which are ethereum competitors and i'm sure both will succeed. For day trading, i recommend waiting until the market stabilises, too unpredictable in the current climate.

It can't be due to individuals who are not hodling as many of us are in the same boat waiting the price to rise again. Cartels are dumping along with futures traders both of which are trying to keep the price down. Those who wish they joined before it hit $20k now have a great chance, lets see how many will take this opportunity

There are several factors to check when evaluating a good ICO. The usual factors of the roadmap and development are important, but to really prove it's real the CEO should be a public figure and get an interview on youtube. Alternatively, photos in exhibitions showcasing the product will prove it is not a scam.

If you look at the charts this is normal for the early part of the year, Q1 is never a good time for crypto. May is when you will see a solid rise so next month should see the end of all this red numbers. Also, next month is the last chance to snap up some bargain coins. Hang in there for a few more weeks and you will see some nice gains.
