You need to see things clearly not all ICO's are fake or scam some ICO just didn't make it to the market to be produce or supported. ICO initial coin offering is a way of the project to gain some help/money from investors that like the idea of their project since not all have that money to support or released their own project/product.

You can get merits by creating a quality post, in a way I also hoping to get some merits so I can rank up but It's hard to get notice, I mean I've been trying my best to give the best answer I can give and a well researched answer but still I can't get "0" merits so I'm also waiting for some good higher members who can check my post and maybe try to reward it with some merits if I satisfied and convince that I deserved it.

I suggest you to check out our ICO the Budbo. Budbo is creating a Global Cannabis Blockchain built to drive efficiency, transparency, and data-driven analytics into this nascent industry. it is the first of its kind and it has a fully integrated blockchain as a support to cannabis legalization, medical research, and the cannabis ecosystem as a whole.

I think the reasons why some people are afraid to buy into something is that they don't clearly understand what it is. I mean people fear the unknown that is human nature and since as a beginner in bitcoin you might feel overwhelmed because there are a lot of information available and it really take some time and patience to fully understand it.

I also using myetherwallet but in terms of security I am having anxious about my ether wallet because all you need is a private key to open it, but how about if you miss placed or you accidentally copy the private key and paste it into something that a lot of people can see it, it kinda make me anxious because I don't know if there are someone who can access my account. It can easily be open since all it needs is a private key, and whats worse is you can Invent an Private key and you can open it, although it has a thousands of probability it is still scary.

This thread is great I'm learning a lot of great bounties that I can check and add to my list, but right now I'm still proud of my Budbo bounty even though I don't receive anything in it, yet. I know that they are great and will give me a great deal and also reward my hardship and effort with the right amount. The bounty manager is good and communicable to its bounty client efficiently.

Budbo Token of course, rebuilding in the blockchain’s image and Adding a much needed layer of security and transparency within the cannabis industry. Budbo
 being the first-of-its-kind, that fully integrated blockchain-based solution for the transparent, standardized, and regulated interaction between cannabis users, dispensaries and couriers.

Why not? I mean it's great if we can pay our fees using Bitcoin since in the Medical Industry the price is high but I think that this will take some time because as of now many Countries, Industries don't want Bitcoin as a term of payment because the price is volatile and it's not constant but who we are to judge Bitcoin, Bitcoin already perform many wonderful and amazing things and rise through adversities.

Yeah, definitely that is one of the questions in my mind is why we should convert our money into Bitcoin, where converting it into Bitcoin will make a lot of risk and saves you time by not converting it.
But for me as an investors I want to put my money where it can grow and change it price/value over time, that is one of the reasons for me for changing my money in to Bitcoin and if the value of the Bitcoin goes high then it's like putting my money in the stock market that is how I see it.

First the way I start on how to choose a good bounty is the bounty manager, if the bounty manager is trusted then that's the time I will start joining the said campaign, but later on I realized that is not about the manager it's about the project also because no matter how good or trusted the bounty manager there will come a time that the project will fail and you will earn nothing so before joining take your own research and background check the project if it has the capable to be successful, then join.

For me the only way I've been doing to get Bitcoins is to join in a Bounty campaign. Signature campaign, twitter, face book and many more etc, because for me that is one of the safest way and satisfying way to earn a Bitcoin and I think signature campaign will suits you if you want to learn more about Bitcoin because of the questions that's being ask in the bitcoin discussion will help you to learn more and also makes you google some important questions and also the campaign will pay you if the campaign is successful quite educational and satisfying right.

Indeed!
Young one's who are willing to take the risk and invest in a very young age is very interesting, and at young age he is aware about his future and investing his money that is awesome. I started investing at the age of 20 and there are people who admired me from it because at this age I'm aware of it, but I admire this boy more because some of the well known entrepreneur said "if you are aware at this business at a young age you are one step ahead of those teenagers at your age"

I don't know what paper wallet is but for me I use MyEtherWallet, and it is safe for me I guess, because it has a lot of warning and introduction and it also teaches you how to protect it and uses it properly and MyEtherWallet is a refresher where you don't need to log it out, for it to be turnoff if the windows is refresh or closed your account in MyEtherWallet also exit and closes itself.

Bitcoin being Dead is not a thing, I think Bitcoin will never Die, but the worst case scenario is when it lost it's value. Bitcoin price right now going down is normal and it usually happens to a lot of investment industry where there are times that the price will fall down but it will go back again and rise even higher I think this is one of the reasons why Bitcoin is so popular because Bitcoin through the years rises through adversities.

A bitcoin wallet is what you use to receive, send, and store your bitcoin. It is a software program where Bitcoins are stored. To be technically accurate, Bitcoins are not stored anywhere; there is a private key (secret number) for every Bitcoin address that is saved in the Bitcoin wallet of the person who owns the balance.

Asking for the common use of Bitcoin is like asking for the common use of money because in bitcoin You can also use Bitcoin as a currency; purchase goods, transact with anyone for anything, basically the same way you use fiat currencies today. Bitcoin is also being used to create digital assets on the blockchain. Bitcoin is also used as a investment vehicle, as many speculators believe bitcoin will continue to grow in value thus making it a good albeit risky investment.

My advice for you if you are choosing an ICO is that

 1.) Check the crypto currencies forum page on Bitcointalk forums.
 2.) Know the people behind them.
          - know the nature of the company and the teams behind ICOs. Most of the companies are newly incorporated, but many founders have been around in their respective industries.
 3.) Understand the target market.
          - Know their target the company, their product, and their technology.
 4.) The whitepaper.
          - Check their whitepaper their possible investors.

Hope this will help!

Of course the demand and supply of people to bitcoin. The price tends to increase when a growing number of people are buying it and many people become aware of and interested in Bitcoin. The price of Bitcoin is not the same as its value. Price is determined by the market in which it trades: by means of supply and demand.

The whole system from how it was created and from how the transactions are verified by network nodes through the use of cryptography and recorded in a public distributed ledger called a blockchain. How the ideas and concept of the bitcoin was made. Also it helps a lot of people, I know some unemployed who earns some profit through bitcoin. I just love the whole concept of it.
