What is to blame for the collapse of Ethereum prices in just three months, following its upsurge to nearly $1,400?
Underlisted are what I thought
1, regulation. 2, The exchanges and 3, Mining profitability: The price of Ethereum is governed not only through speculative actions, but also by mining profitability
But the important thing is about the regulation because all if icos are getting threatened by the law from the governments. It looks like the condition is conducive right now. How more and more countries become ico friendly countries. Exchange can't be considered as a part of the main reasons. About mining profitability, only the ethereum core developer can fix this problem and make it less and less profitable to avoid inflation. |

Dear all member . Current appear fraud by smart contract at the market cryptocurrency, and my is it's victim, so I want to alert to all cryptocurrency member to avoid it. I has already received like bellow : *****Hello! I will help you to get 75 000 ICX tokens
Look at this wallet and log in with your private key
0xA8015DF1F65E1f53D491dC1ED35013031ad25034 ETH
PRIVATE KEY of this wallet (ATTENTION! do not transfer your eth to this wallet, your money will be stolen, only I can help you with the withdrawal of ICX to your ETH wallet!)
668a369e87c01da5bfca9851e6ee86d760e17ee7912d77b7dffe8e0cdf63bcb5
Send me 5 ETH and I will unlock tokens ICX for you and help bring eth wallet to you
My ETH for payment
0x8e40cAC7F4e5FA4ac81e1127b92C3C8b43501965
Write on my mail (criptoman194@gmail.com) after sending eth using your TxHash
Thanks. ***** As you can see , they also give to me PRIVATE KEY of wallet and actually I can open this wallet , BUT THIS IS SCAM, this is a ETH wallet based on SMART CONTRACT " IF YOU SEND TO THIS WALLET ETH IT'S Automatic transfer ETH balance to other ETH wallte. They have scammed 391 ETH until now and you can see on the picture bellow :  So all member be wary of it . It looks like a contract address, the only possible thing to do that through contract address. i have thought about the method will be similar if an ico tried to raised the funds from the investors and basically they are sending ethereum to the contract address and it will be automatically sent to the another ethereum address that has been linked to the contract address. |

I agree, But it looks like all of the trend still depend on the bitcoin at the end of article said another bearish could happen if there will be btc sell of and that can give impact to the ethereum. How this thing become true when you are seeing the latest chart about how bitcoin gets a little pump and dump in every period. |

It would be much appreciated if you guys could recommend any legit ICOs that a US citizen could participate in now and in the future. Seems like I missed out on a few recently because they were restricted to people from the US.
Is there a way around the ICO country restrictions? I've read about using a VPN, but what about KYC? Is the only way to get someone from another country? Or does the US not really care
Thanks!
As per SEC announcement and it would be so risky to participate in the icos, I just know about beetoken but it looks like the crowdsale already passed. KYC to make sure you are not from US and able to participate in the ICO. It may better just waiting for exchange site and then you can buy it. |

Hi all i have a lot of altcoins i invested before the bloody days and now most of then are down lik 50%. Should i sell them with no profit but also no loss or shold i keep them a little more to make profit? what would you do?
You should wait until you will get less on your loss. It will become the right time if you will be deciding to sell your investment. If you are selling it at bottom and after that the price of altcoin will be going up and there is no way for you to recover your loss again. You should not sell them all until it gets recovered on its price at least to minimize you lose. |

I saw and was interested about the ico but the minimum investment was just too high.There are many lending coins out there .How does Nexo Stand different from those ico?
Basically NEXO was running in the same way with the majority of the lending coins. But with a lot of people are hyping nexo and that makes a lot of people are interested to join in the crowdsale. But honestly it was offering an interesting ability of the token. you can earn dividend and at the same time the token can be used as utility token. |

I believe that mining has grown to an extremely industrial scale, requiring huge investments at the start and a long payback period.
Do you think staking/masternodes will reach that scale? Masternodes will reach that scale, just like dash coin and that gives requirement to the everyone interested to become the masternode to have at least 1000 dash coin. It looks like the majority of profit from staking and masternode method has been dedicated to the whales. If the requirements to become masternode will become more and more difficult and it will reach that level. |

In my personal ideal, staking will cost you money to buy those coins and that could be risky if the market is falling down. But with mining, you can actually sell all the hardwares if the market is fallen and the price of hardwares only affects a little bit not like holding coins when you're doing the "Stacking" method.
But that depends on how much power you can produce through your mining rigs, it may better if do any calculation through cryptocompare calculator to get how profit for your mining activities. it looks like a new miners are needed so many mining rigs to get decent power to produce the profit anytime. |

What factors tell you if an Altcoin or new Token will grow in the LONG-term?
How do you know if a token will be worth money when speculation and high exchange volume trading is not pushing the price up? When people calm down on the crypto exchanges, what tokens/altcoins will survive? How do you know?
The developer can deliver its promise to the investors by complete every roadmap at the time. That's the primary factor in determining the token that will promote growth for long-term. That means if there are more demands on the token. It will attract more and more asap. I guess altcoin that developing the future blockchain infrastructure like ether, and another platform that can attract the more demand to use its platform will survive. |

2 exchange coin of NEO that i want to say is: NEX and SWITCHEO NEX: ico in april with very hype, do they have good product on Q3, 2018 ? Website: neonexchange.org SWITCHEO (SWH): Ico have mainet, is listed on Gate.io, but now have price same with ico price because still have bug on their exchange. Website: https://switcheo.exchange/Switcheo i the first multichain Decentralized Exchange (DEX)_ platform for NEP-5 token trades built on the NEO platform. Hi guys, do you think NEX or SWITCHEO is better than ?I don't know what was the usefulness by owned SWH token but in the neonexchange and you will be able to claim your fees that will have distributed by the neon exchange platform to all of the neon stake holders which is really fair for everyone because it gives an advantages by owned more neon token. Neon may become a winner in this comparison. |

What if bounty payments are not paid with the token or coins they are promoting, but are paid by ETH for example. Will it prevent or reduce the price of the token ico to dump?
It seems good, XUC was changing the payment method for the bounty participants by replace the token payment with ethereum payment and This is the result of that https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/exchange-union/The price of XUC still above the ico price and that doesn't give a lot of reaction to the market. This should become another alternative to the developer too, just my 2 cents. |

It effects all crypto because it is essentially the crypto reserve currency. When there is a substantial rise all coins also seem to rise as well.
The real reason is the ethereum fiat price is pegged with bitcoin. Ethereum goes down if the bitcoin gets decrease on its dollar value. Because the majority of crypto has been used the bitcoin to be a floor price for the majority of altcoins in this time. That means anything that happens with bitcoina and that gives impact to the all ot cryptcurrency except tether. |

I think the ethereum classic is go 50$ end of this mounth if bitcoin go up again,I am holding until 150$ this year
We are in another month, and your prediction was failed regarding the result of ethereum classic's price. It looks like this just another random speculation without nothing can be proven. I believe it can still go up, but not this month. It still has a price movement that's like following the price movement of its parent. Well for those of you who invest in this coin, it may still take the same time with investing in Btc/Eth.
It only follows the majority of a trend in the cryptocurrency. You can see the majority of coins are in the red zone right now. ETC is different with ethereum because it has no purpose at all. |

You can compare the crash of 2014 and the correction right now. The market cap has hugely increased since then. This is just normal (and probably healthy) price correction for an asset. It also prove that Bitcoin and generally crypto is not in a bubble. I don't say that the price can reach its peak like in the end of 2017 but market will soon recover
What is your definition of correction vs crash? This is definitely a crash but I agree that recovery will start soon. Before that, we might see the bottom today (if not tomorrow). There is no a lot of difference between correction and crash, but that's only different from the phrase of the word. It doesn't matter how people called it as. But we are at another downtrend again. The bottom will be appearing as soon as possible; It takes a short time to get another bump still after that. There is a lot of tax news to the crypto right now. |

It looks like the crypto market is in a free fall. Btc around 7k, eth under $400, ltc around $100, alt coins are generally down significantly. So what is everyone doing? Go all in and buy more? Sell and get out while you can? Hodl and trust the process?
Get out while you can? Man before investing to cryptocurrencies you should learn on how volatile they are. It's not a one day millionaire investment where you can live happily ever after. This is a real market where there are whales, speculators, FUDs and everything that are playing to affect the market prices and charts as well. Buy more if you can but if you can't the pain, hold. The majority of new players are lack of knowledge about crypto. Crypto is a place for those are looking for a new way to invest into the future development progress of the technology. Like you said it's not a market when people are investing it and tomorrow he gets doubled. It looks like we are in the green candle again and it looks good to see if we will see a big bullish again at the end of this year. HODL!!! |

I am going to spend $70 today and was wondering should I buy a coin with price between $1 to $5 or buy 1 bitcoin gold and the rest for something like Wings or Ada ...
Never try to buy bitcoin gold because it can be considered as a scam coin. In fact a bitcoin fork coin just like bitcoin cash will be delisted from some exchange sites to follow the fact that we don't need it as alternative for the bitcoin because bitcoin transaction was so cheap right now. Never try to buy fork coin. I thought just put all in the ADA or Wings would be better. |

Coins are trending down. But the potential is still ETH. I believe that in the next few months ETH will explode and rise sharply. Followed by NEO. I still hold these two coins and hope for a future for them.
Which plasma will be implemented and raiden will be integrating with ethereum network and ethereum already enough on a large scale adoption. Consider the platform successfully to run dapps but only lack of scalability to make the transaction will be running so fast. Ethereum platform is suitable for a large scale adoption. Another blockchain project still on the delusional. |

As the price of bitcoin will go down, the eth price can go down to $ 300. However, this creates the opportunity to buy more. when the price starts to grow, the investment will bring good profits.
Thats the spirit of a strong hands! Well, thats automatic when Bitcoin is declining, majority of alts will follow through because alts are dependent with Btc's price. Now, if youre a smart investor, you'll gonna enjoy the price decline. I agree with your opinion that bitcoin, as an indicator, in the market is crypto-currency. But the price of the ETH is somewhat alarming, but I still will not sell it and I hope that in the near future it will grow. I have sold more than 170 ethereum when it was $900. People are still feeling worry about the recent banned from social media service. But it looks like there are some service are not getting banned by twitter or facebook. Publicy company still able to make any advertisment through use the mainstream social media just like twitter or facebook. This time still not the best time to buy back ethereum again because it may go low a little bit again. Because the majority of altcoins are pegged with bitcoin. |

Any thoughts on how far it will drop? Is Ethereum a better play right now?
Ethereum was rumored to be experiencing a considerable decline. so many are worried about the coins they hold. but do not worry too much, I see Ethereum again showing a pretty good improvement and gradually. Not just rumored but it was actually happened. But I did not lost my hope on ETH future because they were working on it to recover the biggest dip of the coin. They are one of the toughest coin in cryptocurrency and I will just wait the quick rebound on it since I had purchase the coin for a low price. And I am confidently Eth will be better and efficient to every holders and traders for the upcoming time. Two bitcoins exchange in japan closed their service due to the regulation from japan to prove the security measures from the exchange itself. That makes a lot of sense why the price of bitcoin was getting another decline. Ethereum just follow bitcoin at this stage. it looks like twitter is not banning all service advertisement in the crypto. |

The price of bitcoin is volatile because most users use bitcoin now only for speculation on the stock exchange. This makes the price of bitcoin dependent on the actions of speculators. If bitcoin will have the properties of the currency the coins will be more evenly distributed among users and prices will be more stable. But to do this, you need to have a desire to make changes to the properties of bitcoin.
Bitcoin still to be considered as store value or commodity but the fact whales were dumping the market right now. Crypto is in battling with government about the legalization. But what do you mean about properties of bitcoin? Did you mean bitcoin backed by real estate? Sounds pretty weird for me to hear that. Crypto market goes wild right now. |
