Good thing you asked a question about having confidence in storing our coins on those platforms. Once I am able to have access to my private key on the platform, then I don't have any problem storing my coin with them since I know that those wallet don't have a central wallet that controls every user coins.

If for instance the website seize to exist, that doesn't mean I won't be able to access my coin, once my private key is intact, my coin is also intact.

I can say 80% of ICO that are being carried out today are all scams, but I can't say all ICO are scam because the truth is that I actually gained huge amount of money from some ICO tokens I made purchase of in 2017. One of this coin I made purchase is ETH, we all know that ETH was one of the first coin to begin the ICO movement and sold it's coin at a cheap rate during the ICO period and as we all know, the price of ETH went to as high as $1000 in 2017 making me a lot of profit. Another coin I also benefited from is NEO.

I believe that every project has a roadmap of how the platform is going to be designed over the years even if their token was given by airdrop or you make purchase. So I don't think the token not being listed in 2 months makes it a scam, all you need do is check the roadmap to see when they actually specify when the listing will be taking place, whether it before the 2 months you have spent or after the two months. If it as gone space their specified time, then you can conclude that it's a scam.

Yes, I won't be surprised if IEO replaces ICO entire because this are business men and will only find ways to make money.

Though, I am also scared about this IEO move because that was how the ICO move started by a few legit companies, then a lot of scammers who had that ICO was one of the easiest way to make money took advantage of the market and started to create fake projects that comes up with fake promises that will never be fulfilled even if they were able to raise up to the hard cap needed.

This is a free market and people will always take advantage of that to come up with ideas they can use in scamming a lot of gullible users who are just head bent of making profit in crypto and not trying to learn how the system works. POS is relatively new and still under test therefore we can't give conclusions about it, but we just have be very careful when investing in any project that comes in the name of masternode reward to scam people.

I am not surprised that we are seeing a lot of scam in ICO this days, because it is already becoming the norm and investors are already getting tired of investing in ICO projects  due to the fact that you can never differentiate that which is scam and that which is legit.

I think it is best to invest in IEO now than ICO since IEO is being regulated by popular exchanges, unless there is a good way to regulate the activities of ICO projects to curtail scammers ICO will soon be in extinct.

Yes, Bitcoin and Litecoin both are good choices. The reason behind why do I call them good choices is their low market prices. Remember that a low market price has always been instrumental in giving great returns and imparting great values to your portfolios. ETH along with Bitcoin is another good coin I think you should consider.

It is always good to have diversified portfolios. But, I personally feel no other cryptocoin may match the ROI of what bitcoin could bring to us still for sticking with investment's basic principles, we may need to go for diversifying.

That’s right. Even in China, you do not get to use cryptocurrency legally. It is illegal in China and even in Singapore; the government would have its own monetary base that would not really allow the transactions without documentations if they exceed a certain limit. And this is because of the already existing monetary laws and rules in built around fiat so this is an open secret that a government would keep check.

Nothing but the market forces including some of the exogenous factors by which I mean whales are controlling the market. Butm regardless of these facts, the market value of Bitcoin is expected to rise sooner. We have certain reasons why would the market enter a bull run this year.

Hence, it is yet to be seen when would the market rise but regardless of what would happen, you should not miss out.

A very wise and precluding view about the future value of Bitcoin. And I like that because yes it did came all the way from zero to thousands of dollars.

This is something that defies all the assumption and predictions made about Bitcoin that it will end up valuing nothing and so on. So, yes it is very obvious that Bitcoin will have a trillion dollar market cap soon on the charts.

Initially the large number of Bitcoins in the world had been mined in China but later on, China lashed back on the cryptocurrency banning some cryptocurrency exchanges. This was a sign of the start of the end and yes the trend is now way too down. I do not know hey did they do it. Since gambling is not legal, I do not think Bitcoin gambling would be allowed either.

I feel the effect goes a bit negative in case a gambler losses some Bitcoin so he/she would take it as a big loss because of rise in price level and so his or her intentions to get involved in more gambling would probably subside.

Winning it on the other hand would probably increase the affinity to play more games. So the overall effect is kind of neutral or may be positive a bit.

Bitcoin might not be very stable now but you can’t compare its volatility to how it was some years back after the bull run, the fluctuation was high that many people were afraid of using it as ordinary savings or accepting it as means of payment but for sometimes now, lots of merchant have been introducing the coin as payment due to its stability which will intend join the group of factors that will contribute to the next bull run.

Right now, bitcoin is trading above $4k levels which is a lively proof that we will never have bitcoin as a stable coin at least for few more decades. I guess, bitcoin is seeming it has resumed its bull rally and lets wait where it will be heading.

I am not a fan of BCH because I never saw the need of creating and hard fork of the bitcoin blockchain because you think that Bitcoin is not following satoshi's initial plan, but I think it's even far more better than BCH SV which I refer to shit coin because I can't see the reason why it was created.

I believe that the developers who created it are just after how they could make lots if money from it and not provide a real life value.

That is not what every one does and losses actually have a psychological impact on the mind and really make you stay in the gambling which results in more losses under pressure.

So, what I want to say is that having good control over your nerves and in the same time following your strategy that is your set price levels and your stop loss points, you might be able to resist if you are loosing. You might be able to stop and take away the profits home when you are winning.

That is right mate, the bull run might not be sudden just like it happened in 2017 but the market will gradually continue to appreciate till it hit the high price target, so the bull run we are talking about now might be gradually process till we get there unlike the way it happened 2017 when suddenly bitcoin rose with 2 months and crashed again but this time around, people are beginning to understand the crypto world and gradually putting in their fund for many reason.

I believe that everyone in the market has their own strategies. Everyone approach and solves the knots in a different way. The investors who have been holding their coins since say 2013 have been hodlers and yes you might hate them but they have been benefited immensely by their decisions and have really made millions of dollars in the business in the cryptocurrency.

It is considered as rational to stay in gambling even if you lose some initial money only if you see the potential. The future benefits you can probably make in case you gamble wise next time. At times, you commit mistakes but if you know this thing is worth staying for, pressure could be handled.

But, this is possible in the presence of experience. If you are inexperienced, better not come in the first place for the mind does not work under pressure at such times and can result in further loss.

In gambling, we have quotation “learning” and doing here means doing it practically.
Hence, I think that you should not really think about doing online. Doing things online and in real life are different things. Couple on good websites can teach you on Google how to play poker effectively and you can explore them over the internet but I do not think that you should really focus on online things alone.

It is that quest to become perfect that makes you a gambler. You try to choose the best employee and the best thing to use. But not everything is gambling. Here we need to look at the addiction for utility and the addiction for making money separately.

Gambling for making money is addictive for it can lead to financial losses and making money for the sake of money is something that is also looked down upon.
