Thanks, so it is exactly what I expected it to be.
I still wonder how DOGECOIN can perform so well with this. It's around for quite a while an with all this, some leding figures even push this crap to the sky.
Weird and creepy how this actually seems to work out.

I just don't get it. What puts such a intense hype on meme coins?
What is the use case scenario for all this? I see a very interesting SOL project listing all these new Memecoins like Slothana or Dogwifhat
and just dont get the actual use case for it? I mean, dont we have enough memecoins on the market already with DOGECOIN or SHIBA INU?
I hope someone can help me to unterstand this 

Sorry man, this is off topic. You're talking about ethereum itself as the main subject is an ask about a big competitor of ETH?
I don't know what you are tyring to pull with your investment recommendation here, sry man  

From a historical, technical perspective it could drop down to 25k or even 20k, as we started a run up to 15k in the very beginning and reached a bearish position down to 3k, which is 1/5 from that first high.
Another bull run went all the way up to about 57k and dropped back to 15k, which again is about 1/4 of the second reached high.
So if we expect a new bullrun to reach ~200k, a drop to a max of 40k could be realistic. Should a bullrun end already on a 100k, then a drop as mentioned above (25-20k) could be an option also.
IMHO after this halving we probably wont see anything below 20k again.  
And Im very optimistic that we will cut the 100k on BTC this upcoming halving with this extraordinary greed right now.
Btw we have already reached the alltime high on BTC, correct me if Im wrong  

From a technical aspect, I think BNB is highly dependent on the actual exchange "Binance", which makes it not as decentralized and independent as maybe some others, even though their CEO seems to be quite skilful. Also their Token burn is a good possibility to reduce supply.
ADA has almost no use case compared to BNB, which makes it hard to compete.
I hope to see more development at a later time...

I can't find a lot of news about the Pi Network. Is it worth still mining Pi Coins? Has it been identified as a scam yet?
It seems to be stuck at the Phase III (Enclosed) since December 2021 according to their roadmap with no further information about when it
continues with the Open Mainnet Phase III (Open).
Is there actually a community building apps and utilities on the Enclosed Mainnet for the network?

Im still buying altcoins to enlarge my portfolio. Altcoin season is most commonly behind the bull run, led by BTC. A significant amount of coins haven't reached their ath so far, even though they're performing quite well and experiencing a terrific development.
There might be some coins that won't be able to compete with the developments of others, meanwhile some coins are highly underrated.
I'm not putting all my money into allcoins, neither do I use big amounts of money at a certain time, even though this could gain even more. I personally prefer a savings scheme with a steady amount of Cash to put into, as I believe that growth will be happening
in the long run also.  

I personally think that there are a lot of competitors trying to compete with ETH. 
One of my favorites used to be ADA with it's scientific approach. With it's peer review procedure they want to create a scalable, efficient and secure platform for dApps and smart contracts.
It has a quite similar idea as ETH, although Cardano was limited to about 1000 TPS, while SOL is way faster, not just the speed of transactions but also the block building.
As SOL is still in the early ages of development it has outdated ADA with a few things.
I think ADA still has great capabilities to catch up as it's development ist still not finished.
IMHO SOL and ADA are the most optimistic candidates to compete against ETH.

I personally think Solana is still worth a buy. CCTP just started, so Cross-Chain functionality opens a huge perspective for more liquidity. Besides that, Bybit as one out of three of the biggest players (capacity) offers a Solana Option.
Also the Neptune Digital Assets Corp. just acquired 26964 SOL.
IMHO with its reliable infrastructure Solana has very big potential to continue driving north.

Same here. I had absolutely no problems getting my wallet synced. It definitely took it's time but I'm quite excited now.  I have moved my coins to coinexchange.io.
So, what is the roadmap for TIPS 2018? 
Are there any suggestions on this? 
Transactions seem to work fine and fast.    Is it possible to get this big (again)? There are many alternatives out there...

I will just leave my computer on tonight I guess. Hopefully wallet is up-to-date in the morning.
 

Alright, I downloaded the new wallet, still have 2 000 000 TIPS in my old wallet.dat.
I tried to replace the old wallet.dat with the new one and restarted the Wallet. Is that how it'S suppose to work?
 

I think it has gotten the marketing attention quite well. Or how does it come market volume is above 187M? It is even listed on more exchanges than IOTA is.

Im totally in love with IOTA, I really like the project. Only problem I see so far is the rare acceptance on exchanges. I'm not a friend of bitfinex, neither their high fees nor their QoS.
I know that since everyone is hopping on crypts there are problems with traffic, that need to be solved. Same with security issues.
Before I get started with IOTA, there hast to be an exchange that I fully trust and I can fully count on. I've made very good experience with bitcoin.de, even though their fees are high too.
I just sold all of my bitcoins the other day, not sure about this hype right now, it confuses me. I read in the news that Bulgaria still keeps over 200k of Coins which they have seized from criminal activities.
Maybe I was too nervous about having these guys satisfying the current demand of Bitcoins  .
I think in the long run, ETH and IOTA are futuristic and promising investments...
I will keep an eye on IOTA and their trading possibilities for the future. Hope to see them soon on more exchanges.

Keep up the interesting and great work guys.

 

Whatever, I really like this coin and the idea behind it.
I don't think that 21B will kill it, even though it will get hard to raise in value.
But in the long run and eco system of the future needs more than 21M Coins for daily usage.
And if you think of world population 21B isn't that much. 

I still have my old wallet.dat and I'm waiting for the new Wallet to go productive. Can't wait to see how much I have staked 

ECC is not DEAD !
The Wallet is still being tested I assume, you guys need to relax 

I can't wait for it to be released, it's gonna get big here 

Awesome, I can't wait to sync my wallet again, it's been over 3 years   

Same shit here dude,
I think we need to relax and wait for devs to get things done.
I'm inpatient too but this doesn't solve problems
