Now all the markets are crashing down and I don't know what to do with my altcoins. My briefcase fell 30% in a couple of days. I'm afraid I might lose more. Selling or hodl?

The news about Google was able to bring down the whole cryptocurrency market prices within these days. That information created is a serious fundamental impact on the overall market. Though within the period mentioned so far something can happen that can counter the whole situation. As we  are talking now the prices have started recovering.

Don't waste your time with these amateurs.

They super hyped airdrop got everyone excited.  First they delayed the release of their KYC instructions.  Then they took the KYC site down for two days while they "cleared a backlog." They've brought it back now, but they changed the rules.  Half the people who signed up are being told their wallet addresses are not registered.  And now you can only complete the KYC process by submitting a copy of your passport (drivers licenses and/or other government IDs will no longer be accepted).

Many of us spent hours trying to get approved for the airdrop.  I know I did.  What a huge waste of time!

I hope this project fails.  These guys are real scumbags.  Stay away!

What happens if coins/tokens was sent to a wallet that doesn't support it?

Every day we read about US,China, Korea,Japan; their stand on cryptos and anytime the news seems bad it will create FUD which will lead to market crash.

But I believe US,China, Korea,Japan are not the only countries in the world. So today I want the community members to state their countries stand as regards to cryptos

Below are few countries stands as regarding to cryptos. you can correct me if I am wrong.

Please Add your own country stand.

Maybe If we spread some good news about countries that support cryptos we might see bullish market again.

«A “stable coin” is a cryptocurrency that is pegged to another stable asset, like gold or the U.S. dollar. It’s a currency that is global, but is not tied to a central bank and has low volatility. This allows for practical usage of using cryptocurrency like paying for things every single day.

Coins like Bitcoin and Ethereum and highly volatile. On any given day, it is common to see an increase to 10-20% or even a decrease. That makes using most cryptocurrencies for daily transactions inconvenient. Imagine paying $5 for your flat white (my coffee of choice) today and finding out tomorrow that it should have been $4. Price changes like that are shocking for a consumer. The adoption of stable coins will be be a catalyst to the new decentralized internet becoming mainstream.»

I noticed that many investors were afraid to buy during ICO because their reason they are cheaper can be bought on market. Especially when they found out  that a large percentage is allotted in the bounty program. Many Bounty Hunters  immediately selling token/coin even lower than the ICO price.

Hello to all!

I tried to find all the competing projects in the field of medicine, which are based on the blockchain.

A lot of new ideas have appeared in this sphere lately. Currently, we can only hope that they will benefit the world.
Each of projects has its own token and I propose in this thread to discuss the viability and relevance of the proposed ideas in order to understand the investment attractiveness of each of them.

UPD
I'm waiting for your comments and suggestions and I will do an upgrade of this post as needed.

Do you think ICO is the best way to invest in?

Hi everyone i want to invest in a new project , one that has a lot of ability to grow .
I have been looking at ziliqa and cardano both of which seem very interesting to me . However i want to make sure there is alot of rokm for roi as well.
Which do you think is the wisest to invest in?

What altcoins can go 5x or better in 2018

Or

Will cryptos crash?

Two months ago I found a website with all sorts of ICO information.
Immediately I told my friend Edward and after researching on Holdernews for 3 days,
together we put 5000 dollar to invest
the token had just hit 1 million dollar yesterday on OKEX
What now, how should we split?

update:
200x is reasonable since we buy in at the price of PRIVATE SALE
I know, right? The ICO game is rigged... people investing in private sale stage always get the best price...

A nice way to start with crypto is through free Crypto Airdrops. New companies, but also ones already listed on coinmarket cap are giving away tokens and coins for following them on social media.

You can read everything about how in 15 mins you can get started earning some free crypto

https://medium.com/@RobertSteenhoff/why-i-participate-in-crypto-airdrops-5273bd25c0d7

Hello im newbie, some of my friend teaching me of this kind cryptocurrency. can someone teach me to have a huge profit of cryptoworld by free? im a poor so i want to take time in this world

Hey guys, are you excited and familiar with privacy coins? What is, in your opinion, the most undervalued privacy coin now that can be promising and make good gains in the near future?

I am thinking of Navcoin but if there was a privacy coin with market cap lower than 50m let me know!

If one were to buy and hold solid  avaerge coins (not a coin that kicks out and gets 10000% gain), but rather a nice steady gain like eth, Ltc etc (top 20) and starts with 10k, is it possible to reach a million without trading and buying/selling at highs and lows? If so, how long would you predict it would take? Or are most coins not going to last long term, so every 6 months would I have to rebalance with newer coins?

Hello!

How do you prefer to get crypto? Do you invest or you prefer to join bounty?

Also, check out bounty and token sale campaign of this project https://ico.kickcity.io/
Interesting to know your opinion
