Decentralized exchanges are also not secure enough, mate. Last year, Bancor faced a massive hacking incident and 23 Million USD was taken by the hackers! Therefore, Etherdelta exchanges had a few hacking experiences! But Overall, in this way, Decentralized exchanges are better than Centralized ! At least my funds are the only mine, not for any others cold wallet or centralized wallet!

Both, but not everyone is dumpers! Some bounty hunter sell their rewards too early without thinking about the real value of their tokens! And some presale investors, who bought a coin with a big bonus! But bounty hunters have only 1-2% of the total coin, so, they can't dump for a long time, the real dumpers are from the ICO investors I assume.

Of course, we need to keep our hopes alive! The crypto bull run may happen anytime in any year! But not very soon definitely! So, stop thinking about bull run or bear, just keep doing your works perfectly! The great time will come to us again!

I would not call this is a competition, This is happening only because of the negative hype about Ethereum! The matter is, Ethereum hard fork is coming which made a big hype in the crypto community but still, XRP claimed the second position from Ethereum?! This is strange now! Ripple's popularity is increasing, even we can see Ripple at the second place for a long time if the ETH fork not work!

Though this market is very good to buy coins, but I stopped buying now. If you have enough money then you may go for buying some coins now! Because this is the time, or wait a few days more, because BTC can dump to under 3K USD!

I am not sure this time, because I don't think whales are manipulating crypto market right now! Though it was discussed that bitcoin price should down under 3K USD, maybe here we come! But don't worry mate! Crypto market will not recover in one day or month, it will take time. So, I recommend you, stop checking crypto market price for a while, keep doing your job perfectly. Everything will be fine.   

This is one of the bitter truths right now! Most of the bounties are not paying! Sometimes they extended distribution timeline, sometimes they scam people and gone away! I can feel your frustration but this is real that ICOs are can't make enough funds, you will need to work several of bounties. And in crypto, you need to be lucky with hard work! So, don't blame on luck, keep working, and Very soon or later, everything will fine!

Are you kidding!! Desico scammed? If it is real then I just can't believe it. I thought this project will be good if they reach enough cap from the token sale! But I never thought it can be a scam! That's why I am supporting STO, because I guess crypto needs regulation now to save people from these types of scam!

And, Your proposal is the demand of time, but I think bitcointalk won't follow that! Because no one can ensure you which project will give you profit and which not! Like Centra coin and Desico! So, that will destroy bitcointalk's reputation!

You are absolutely right! Last year a lot of people did this mistake! Some people sold their car, lands to buy bitcoin to hold! and now they are regretting every day! I always suggested my fellows to support crypto not to depend on it! Earn from bitcoin and try to make something in offline, take crypto trading as optional income source! One of my elder brothers heard me, and he builds a medicine shop! Now, he is very happy and he doesn't care about the market fallen! And he becomes a full day trader!

Dear, you just revealed the bitter truth of ICOs! I have stopped investing in ICOs since Monetoken ICO, just promoting projects by doing their bounty campaign! Almost every ICOs are garbage now, they are just showing fake millions of the raised bar to attract investors! Your all of points are right in my view but there have some good ICOs too. So, I would not say ICO is totally dead!

Yes, Most of the exchange gives you the opportunity to trade without ID verification! Though Coinbase is the best to exchange crypto, not to trade. So, You will not need any identity verification to deposit and withdraw your crypto in those exchanges. I would suggest you follow Binance, Bibox, Coinbene, Hotbit, Digifinex, Hitbtc and so on.  Good Luck.   

I haven't seen any sign of it! I mean how can you say Ripple will die if some banks refuse to use this technology? Millions of traders are trading this coin every day and it is the 3rd coin by the volume!! Besides these, Ripple is not a decentralised coin, so I would say Ripple future will be brighter than now!

I will say yes too! At this moment, We need regulations for ICOs! If you asked this question in 2017 then I would've said No! But from the 2018 ICO projects are being reckless! I agree with you that same vision, the same goal even same website theme in many ICOs! All those words are well written on websites and whitepaper but no output in reality! These ICOs are damaging the potential of crypto space!

Ethereum already has taken the 2nd place! Actually, I don't care about it, because After bitcoin, everyone knows Ethereum is the king! Sometimes Ripple takes the second place according to trading volume but that only for a limited time so, it is not a big deal here! Ethereum price collapsed was the real reason for these position changes! And now, Ethereum hard fork is coming that's why ETH go back again its real position!

If you think you can do better and can bring profits still in this bear market then you should not stop trading. It depends on you actually, if you can apply the best performance and can predict the market situation you can carry on for making money friend.

I have the same experience guys I do not know what should I do with these shitcoins. I have been carried them for a long time in my wallet but I have a plan to hold them until change the bear condition.

Ethereum is one of the top altcoins in the crypto market it has a decent project in the crypto market. It has bright technology and even has good demand among the people so no doubt it will grow up again when the bear market will recover which already started to recover. So keep patience.

It depends on you how you capable of trading and even it depends on your proper knowledge of trading. If you think you are enough good and can be able to apply the best strategy in trading then there is no specific time for trading. You can do it anytime to make money.

If the news is authentic we have to realize that is great work has been done by modern technology. It will be helpful to use bitcoin especially for the people who lives in rural area where internet is not accessable. For this wonderful advancement bitcoin will be more popular and more people will increase to use bitcoin.

There is no specific time to join in trading you don't have to regret a friend. You can start it now if you have a decent knowledge of trading you will be able to manage profits there is no doubt. You just need to have patience and techniques.

So far I think Ethereum is the top potential coin in the market it seems to be much promising to buy. Except for ETH, there are some more coin especially unknown coins can be enough potential so you can look at them.
