When panic selling our emotions are involved and it is not  good thing when investing. We should make our decisions according to our trading plan and not based on panic or hype.

We definitely need a verification system preferably a global one and not an over complicated one which would kill the legit businesses.

Design is important as it is building emotional connection  with the  user. That is the first impression we connect to the project. In the complex world we are living good design is mandatory for the success.

It will be a year of working products with strong use cases. There are many useless projects out there and investors are fed up with promises without delivering results.

I like to learn and be part of the new technical revolution as it will affect many fields of our lives and I would like to benefit from it.The other reason is to make profit by trading crypto, so for me it is a win-win to be here as I like what I am doing.

Eth price crashed a lot during the bear market and it lost a lot from it`s market share. Now, it seems that they will resolve their issues with scaling and the market reacted positively on the upcoming upgrades in January 2019.

Last year, during the hype ICOs were rising like mushrooms and they influenced the price of the ETH positively. This year it has turned out that many of them are fake or scam projects and that also effected ETH but on a negative way.

Marketing activities should be like goals - SMART. (specific, measurable, achievable, relevant, and time bound). We know in practice that they are not always measurable and they can have a delayed effect. Anyway, marketing spending should be defined and not overspent.

There is no such a tool as I know. We can analyze many things but the market will decide if the project will be successful or not. It depends what solutions it brings to a certain problem and how big the community support will be. The product without a supporting community which is using the product is useless.

Crypto is relatively new technology and it is normal that there will be many ups and downs. Remember what we had internet development and crypto is much more complicated. New technology acceptance needs time for people to understand what benefits it brings to them.

I have big expectations for ETH proof of stake model. The development upgrades were postponed for too long and it was time to come up with something big. Hopefully they will release the upgrades on time as promised. ETH deserves new technical improvements.

There were such attempts earlier as well to crumple the two coins in one  like eBitcoin or many others which combining  their names. I think that there is  only one BTC or ETH and no need for that. The creators doing it for marketing purposes and to make them rich. I am staying away of such forks.

Both coins are top are the most trusted coins in crypto. Personally, at this moment I would go with ETH as the development upgrades for it were announced for January and it will boost it`s price. So, I think there will be more gains on ETH than on BTC in the next two months but long term BTC is the most secure investment.

ICO market is struggling with fund raising second half of the year. The main reason for that is that many investors has lost their faith to crypto as it does not bring the ROI they were expecting and they became much more picky and cautious with their investments.

During the bearish market it is very risky to hold not established coins or shitcoins as they can lose from their value more than the top coins and this is why many people selling them when the market is crashing.

The same as we have many fiat currencies we will have different crypto currencies. There is no need for thousands of them but we have different coins with different benefits and the market will decide which ones will prevail.

ETH will resolve it`s issues with scaling with the upcoming upgrades called Serenity. The next upgrade will be mid January 2019 with Constantinople hard fork. It will soften the transition from POW to POS consensus algorithm.

KYC should be announced prior to the beginning of the bounty and then hunters can chose if they want to participate under KYC conditions or not. In the reality ICOs can change the rules and do whatever they want without any consequences. The situation is different with security tokens as for them to have KYC is a legal requirement .

If we want more investors on the market regulations are needed as institutional investors will not enter a totally unregulated market.I am for smart regulation but not to over regulate ICO as it could  be non efficient .

Cryptocurrencies are unpredictable as the market is relatively and it can be manipulated easily by big sell/buy orders,
news, fake news, rumours etc. We also have futures on the market and many of them shorting their coins, so there are
 many different interests which determine the price.
