The early investors have made out like bandits in Bitconnect but all the late comers
will get killed when the Ponzi scheme fails. Nobody knows when that will happen.

AVT coin supply is so small. On any good news of deals, it can go above $10 very quickly.
Eventchain is another one to watch in this space.

Ethereum will got to $1000 and higher on its own and it does not need Ethconnect for that.
Ethconnect and other such Ponzi lending schemes are just a disgrace to cryptos.

With a $1, one can buy a lottery ticket or just buy some bottom coins that are
priced at  a few Satoshis and just hope one of those does a 100-1000x.

I think it is. It has a good and active dev team. It appears to be near bottom
at $4 so should go above $10 easily in 2018.

Ripple has been in correction for a very long time but it will go to new highs next year.
It is easier to just HODL it and wait for the eventual rise.

ETH can surely go into 4 digits next year but Bitcoin will be into 5 digits then.
ETH or any other coin is very unlikely to overtake BTC.

For most people, just the simple trick of  buying low and selling high works
 with cost averaging. One can start buying some alts now and buy more after
Bitcoin fork.

Most alts trade like penny stocks trade on the over-the-counter exchanges so big swings
are to be expected. These swings will get bigger when hedge funds and ETFs enter the
crypto markets.

Nothing can take the place of the king of the cryptos, Bitcoin. Electroneum seems a good project
but too early to be expecting too much from it.

Agree with the points by OP. HODL is the easiest thing to do for most
people who are not expert traders.

Most alts do look bottomed out so agree that it is a good idea to start buying
some now and some before and after the fork.

It seems Teeka pumped it again today. See last pages of this discussion thread for details:

ZEN is a great coin for long-term regardless of any pumps.

I did a similar copy-paste mistake some time ago and immediately after that, created
a new MEW wallet and transferred everything to it. Once a private key is exposed to outside
world, your wallet is no longer safe.

Let's hope that the S2X fork this month is last one for Bitcoin at least for some months.
The China ICO ban has also dampened the entire altcoin market. But all this could change
fast in coming weeks so just need to hold on tight to your bags.

Ethereum is number 2 and going to be there for a while due to all these ICOs.
That said, in future competition from many other competing  platform technologies
could take away some ICO market share from it. EOS had a very big announcement
a few days ago causing its price to double.

Ripple pump did not last long but Zencash is back above $20. ZEN is a
much lower marketcap coin than XRP so it is lot easier to get a 10X in ZEN.

I'll choose OMG and WTC. Both have great teams and advisors  and have done very well
already for the early investors.

This is just another pyramid ponzi scheme coin. People are investing thinking it could
be another bitconnect but risk is very high. Lots of people lost all their invested
money in Bitpetite.com  yesterday only when the site went offline.

I think most of these coins are already given in old reports shared on this thread
but that has no effect on price! Maybe only the one main cover-story coin that takes many
 pages in every report gets the pump!
