Well its and interesting topic.
As per me there are various kind/types of skill required in crypto space apart from Signature campaign. These includes

• Mining - If you are invested in mining you are helping in securing the network
• POS / DPOS - This is basically HODLing and getting some money out of it
• Masternodes - Well VPS server have never been so popular. if you know some basic Linux knowledge and can host a masternode then its one of the most desired service any newbie wants
• Network Forking - If you know how to compile code, then you have already taken the first step in creating your own blockchain. There are still many projects who want to branch out of some crypto and make their own vision. It can be one of the most desired skill in crypto
• Smart contract - Its one of the most easiest and most hyped. Its basically writing some JavaScript kind of logic into a world machine 
• Blockchain for Industry - One of the most demanding jobs in IT sector as of now, where companies want to set up their private blockchain networks which doesn't include process like mining
• Educating people about Crypto & Blockchain - Having and making YouTube videos is kind of a skill

Now coming to the skills people posses
I believe most of us in bitcointalk have knowledge about Mining, POS or DPOS 
People with the knowledge of how to set up Masternodes are very limited in India 
Smartcontract - its way too common, any decent programmer can do it 
We have a lot of YouTubers spreading crypto content, so knowledge in this sector is ample
The most rare will be Network Forking and Creating an enterprise level blockchain infrastructure 

About Me :
I myself have knowledge about all the above except Network Forking & successfully deploying it.

If you are interested in Margin trading you can check Bitfinex.
Their mobile app is quite good.

I have personally used it. I would also like to suggest the below points from my experience.

• if you are a complete beginner go for max 2x leverage
• Its too risky and you have to keep hard stoploss
• Keep emotions at home
• Learn about swing trading & technical analysis

Its hard to say it will come to $3000 as at this point mining will be a huge loss. So miners wont be willing to sell below it, this will only drive the price higher.
The only reason it happened was because of the Bitcoin cash war. Both the sides hold a quite large amount of BTC. They sold it to buy hashpower so that they can become the winner in this mad race. Bitcoin cash is the real junk of Bitcoin.

So the only possibility left is up as more and more stores, shops, cities and countries have started accepting crypto. But I doubt we will see those insane rise in valuation like 2017. It will be slow and steady. 

I completely agree, no one is stopping blockchain development in India. But I think crypto based blockchain startup would have been a boom provided the Government approach was liberal towards cryptocurrency.

Crypto is a billion dollar market and not to have a piece of it, is sad. There are awesome crypto projects that was huge success in countries like US because of their attitude towards technology. With such a vast potential in Indian market its sad that there is not a single crypto project from India in top 100 of coinmarketcap.

Until RBI gives a thumbs up, no state can implement crypto framework but no one can stop them from working on it.
Someday RBI has to come up with regulation.

Good or bad RBI's decision has to be accepted if you stay in India.

But do you have any links to confirm the source of your information ?

If you are interested in HoriZen and want to really know the potential then do read the report released by Greyscale.

Well this might not be something new for those who are already following ZEN but definitely a good read for people who are exploring good projects with real problem solving abilities.

I completely agree, this is just a fantasy topic to open our creative minds and present your ideas.
Regarding VPN, I don't think it will be a problem if you are following SUBSTRATUM project.
Secondly, Once your crypto is converted to some anonymous coins you have already become invisible, even if you carry out transactions in plain sight.

Ok GUYS just one thing, as soon as we try to convert it to INR there is big possibility of losing your anonymity.
So my thought process doesn't include converting crypto to any Fiat currencies.

Do share your other awesome ideas.

Project is interesting and can definitely gain momentum.
Its like sharing ride and earning crypto for it.

Crypto slowly pushing its way into main stream.
Its would be also nice if we can directly convert the coins directly into BTC without going to any exchange.

Wow interesting way of creating awareness. This post should be pinned for ever.
Really appreciate the way people are investing their time to create such awareness project.

The way this is presented is really tempting for a small investor to pitch-in.
Scamming in crypto has become a business now, with such power & freedom that crypto gives us people usually get fooled.

Loved this idea of creating such website - https://www.howeycoins.com/
https://www.investor.gov/howeycoins

wow interesting read about Merits.

Your posts are generally quite good. I thinks that's the reason even which less activity your merits are skyrocketing. 
We need to earn merits (sometimes we get lucky) but quality post like this should be an example.
 

How is EGem different than ethereum apart from few basic changes.
I want to know what exactly do you plan to achieve.

If its just about speed then there are a lot of other networks like EOS, Tron which can achieve the same.
If its just about a different skin of Ether then it makes no sense.
Ethereum also has a list of plans to make a move towards POS, along with addressing the scalability issue. If they are successful then there wont be any need for EGem.

Just curious about why are people supporting this project.
Looks like a lot of shilling going on in twitter for the same.

Its a good one.

Initially i thought its kind of an exchange like shapeshift, but then found put its only currency converter.
Data is not updated in real-time but it kind gives a nearly accurate result especially when you want to check the value of BTC in different fiat and crypto.

Thanks for sharing.

Horizen is now listed on Huobi, one of the world's largest exchanges! This new partnership will help continue to expand the Horizen global presence.

Yeah, even while writing the last part I was having concerns as it's about privacy. My point is If you have power you can do both good and bad. The important thing is to know that you have power.

Privacy is basic human right. But big organization like FB have taken it for granted. Now the situation is like, if I talk about privacy, I'm doing something illegal. This idea of privacy = illegal has been imposed on us by big players.

Institutional Investors are already here.

Grayscale Investments, the world’s largest digital currency asset manager, formally launched its ZEN Investment Trust

I knowingly didn't ask What will you do if crypto is banned in India ? as many of us who are here know Crypto is unstoppable and can't be banned.

So I asked whats your plan just in case crypto is banned ?

If you ask me, I would say I am going HODL my crypto no matter what for the below reasons.

1 - I feel like investing something in the future
2 - I only have invested that much which I am ready to loose
3 - I believe crypto is more powerful and if made illegal today has to be declared legal someday.
4 - There are many developed country where its legal and traded freely, I can get it exchanged anytime if I visit.
5 - In case I can't visit I can always get it exchanged as Indians are everywhere, after all Its my hard earned money. Not earned by doing corruption  

Next ... If you want to become completely Anonymous and remove all trace of your existence, Then its very simple

1 - I will convert all my BTC and other coins to some privacy crypto like HoriZen or ZCash (as I have already used them)  
2 - Then I will use shielded transaction to send to to another shielded address, Thereby making it untraceable
3 - Convert HoriZen back to BTC using Decentralized exchange  
4 - From the Decentralized exchange I will send BTC to a new BTC address.

Thus making myself completely anonymous    

This is an imaginary topic. Crypto as of today is not illegal to hold in INDIA, but do share your thoughts / plan might be helpful for someone

Bitcoin is the King, not so easy to replace.
But for quick gains you should consider Altcoins, but always keep max of your reserve in BTC.

This is again a part of spreading FUD. Until some actual news comes up you can relay on mainstream media.
They always have been providing wrong info, its nothing new.

Horizen has the properties of all the famous crypto currency.
1. The DNA of Bitcoin
2. Privacy feature of Zcash
3. Smart contract feature of Ethereum
4. DAO & Masternode concept from Dash

What more features you want to determine the potential of a crypto ?
Also do share if I'm missing something.

I think Winter is already here.
Banks are the White Walkers and the Great wall has fallen.

Now its time to fight back
