If you can find legit ico it is safe. But firstly you need to find right legit and promising ico for investing. These days icos are not showing good signs actually. Because of bear market too many icos under their crowdsale or presale price. You need to be careful while investing icos. I am not talking about scam ones. Also too many legit ico is now under their ico price.

Yes that is very important problem these days in crypto space. WE need to detect scam projects and people need to aware of that. You need to do your research carefully . You need to look their team and project. Some scam projects can have amazing whitepapers because they are paying money for that but i think you need to focus on team. You can learn from there about that scam issue.

I agree with you especially in the bear market patience is the most important thing because people need to hold their tokens for earning profits and they need to be patient during holding. We may have to wait more than 1 2 years but after that time we will earn money i am fully sure about that.

That is the one of the important question in blockchain space. Too many people try to develope fastest blockchain. But always they can test that without too much load. I know last 9 10 months all of the blockchain icos trying to reach the biggest tps speed. But i think that is not the most important thing in blockchain. I am not sure now but i searched mastercards or visas speed. We dont need to reach 1m tps for now. It can be good but  most important things is realworld usecases.

No investing icos are not profitable anymore. Because there was too many icos 4 months ago and too many investors sent too much money to these projects. All of these icos lost their value and 90 percentage of that now under their ico price so now people are not investing icos and they are not buying these news tokens from exchanges.

I think we already entered reversal. But we should wait sometime for next bullrun. If we can look the history from cmc we can see the same pump and dump in 2013 and 2014. So if history will repeat himself we need to see some stable market in next months before the bullrun. So i believe bear market already ended.

I think you can do trading and holding same time. You can hold your main portfolio and you can start to do trading with 500 600 dollar for learning trade and also maybe you can start earn some money.
But please do not touch your main porfolio during trading. We saw huge amount of loss and we dont want to loose our remain money. That is little but it can be big in next bull. Do not sell your tokens with loss.

I love neo. They have some issues about network but i believe neo will come back their old prices like 150 200 dollar. I am holding big amount of neo and i am still continue buying neo with these low prices.
If we will see another bull market and ico season will start again neo will be go to the moon .

I personally investing in zcash.Actually i bought some zcash during pump and i am still continue buying more and i am preparing for the next bull. I love their team and privacy is really important for me in crypto.

I think eth will not next bitcoin but i believe eth can be valuable like bitcoin in future. Maybe not same value's but if btc will be 20 30 k dollar again i believe eth can reach easily 5k dollar price tag.
We can use both of them.

Surely altcoins are more profitable than btc. Do you think btc can do 100x from 6k price ? Surely not. That is really hard issue. But 1m dollar marketcap coins can easily do 100x in next bull market.

I can not see any risk of cryptocurrencies. Yes now market is really volatile but that is not mean risk. That is our money and we can to invest in crypto. We can invest some stock exchange and these companies can crash also. So high risk high gain. I can not see any risks of cryptocurrencies. Yes there are too much scams but not different in real world.

Actually i am holding since 12k dollar. I dont think anything about selling. I think we should buy more from that 6k dollar price tag. I think it will bounce back to 10 k in december i hope.

Yes unfortunately there are more and more scam icos in crypto world. That is really painful..
Always our friends loosing money in some scam projects. That is the biggest problem in crypto .
I think we cannot do anything about these scammy projects in decentralized place.
What we can do. We can teach our friends how can they detect scam projects.
I think that is the best thing we can do.

I can sugesst you to join bounties and airdrops and you can but altcoins and hold.
I have very bad experiences about trading. Surely you can be succesful maybe in trading . But in my opinion trading is really hard thing.
Trading have too much opportunity because market is really volatile also there are some risks. You can be bag holder after your trading experience.
Like me. I tried to do trading one week and i am bag holder for last 5 months . So if you are really believe yourself start to testing period with low amount of money. and
after the results you can decide what you will do.

Yes that is normal issue. Because you know there are too many scammy projects. And bounty hunters can not realise that always.
That is not bounty hunters fault. You know ico's crowdsale process everything seems like more clear but in bounty process you can only find a website and some team members photo and a whitepaper.
You can not find any investor details etc. So it can be possible unfortunately.

No eth will not fail if vitalik dies. Only that can cause dump surely as expected. But after that everything will turn to normal situation i think.
Because ethereum foundation already have too many developers with amazing skills. Now vitalik is the symbol of ethereum  he is very valuable person and dev.
But eth can continue without vitalik.

You shouldnt sell your coins mate. I believe XLM . and i hope we will earn huge money from XLM again in next bull market. You need to continue buying rather than selling. So if you have a fiat please keep continue buying or
you can only hold your tokens if you can not buy now. Hold until next bullrun.

Yes after that thread you know eth hit to 850 dollar value in only 1 months. So we can clearly understand from there everything can change very fast.
Because of that i believe we will see bull market in near future. Investors already lost big amount of money and too many people sold their tokens with losses.
So now that is the time for next bull.

I dont have too many informations about ETF's last situation but i believe ETF will approved in 2019.  There are too many positive news about bitcoin and also i believe they will accept that finally.
Because i think there are too many investment companies want to invest in btc and they need to that ETF. So in 2019 i think it will be happen. i hope.
