Trade with a small budget and want to trade BTC/USD? it's hard to find a market at a lower fee.
because I don't have much information about the bitcoin market that uses low fee, so I have a choice but maybe you don't like it. try choose/trading in binary, there you will find low fee trading.

If you try to invest now, I think it's not bad either. do it at your own risk. take a chance now or never, that's your choice. personally if I have a lot of capital I will invest in bitcoin. Right now, I only have small capital so I only invest in altcoins.
don't forget on 2020 is halving bitcoin

I heard that empowr has been scam, when they change the rules on the withdraw menu replaced with changes we have to import our private key into the website or another option we have to deposit eth into the empowr wallet (requirement if we want to withdraw empowr coins). after all, the market is only one and the coins have no value anymore.
when I enter the website, it is automatically blocked by the cryptonite extension (detecting phishing sites)
and e-mail notifications from Empowr now don't go to the main inbox but instead move to spam. From here, we should have known and realized.

Currently binance is considered the safest to save your balance in a market exchange and don't forget also to set 2FA BUT it's not recommended that you save too long in exchange wallet. The binance CEO once made a warning tweet about this too, when cryptopia was hacked.

For now I prefer to LTC because it's approaching Halving LTC in August, seen from the movement of LTC which is more aggressive than ETH. But it's better if you can have both ETH and LTC.

As we can see now, I think Litecoin is in an uptrend. even though litecoin doesn't affect the market much like bitcoin, but if you are a litecoin fan (litecoin holder) you will know how it feels when hope comes true. the price of around $ 75 isn't bad either!

portfolio dropped to zero while at the bear market. all the results of the bounties that we have joined for a long time ultimately have no value when in the bear market. this not include the scam project. a lot pain we get since the bear market. sad life for bounty hunter.

Hmm ... my prediction is max price is $500 even though at the moment it is very impossible to happen. Currently, to see the price to reach $200 is very difficult, then how to reach $500 ? Yep, the price of $500 in 2019 for ethereum seems to me is already too high BUT it's all depending bitcoin price

If in the past when I just knew bitcoin, I was often cheated by HYIP investments.. Now, I have been scammed by many ICO projects. sad, investment again and again.

We (Me or you or everyone) have also done this method (searching information) during the ICO and STO periods before the hype IEO come. in my opinion it does not depend on the place of exchange (binance or other), but depending the scale of the project is useful or not for the future.
if the project *only* looks like legit/trusted because it does an IEO on binance, I think this mindset is completely wrong. Investing is okay, but we don't know further about the price after it is available for trading, there is no guarantee that prices will be the same when investing. can fall very deep or up high. but I'm sure the price will fall.
as you said, many projects now start various ways to do the IEO. Scammers have many ways to get money. so 100% i agree with you!

I don't think IEO is better than ICO.
if you or someone invests IEO Ocean on bittrex, then congratulations you have lost a lot of your money!
from this, we know if the IEO is the same as ICO. yes, you are right, that's a different method. but the same trick.
so my answer is nothing better, whatever the type of investment.

Actually, bitcoin as payment service is still illegal in my country. but there is some exchanger who is allow bitcoin to buy digital product such as Steam voucher, google gift card, internet bill.
If bitcoin then convert to fiat currency, it can buy everything haha

Guess number 150

Agree or not, in my opinion there is indeed a manipulation. we don't know who it is, but certainly there is. when prices suddenly rise significantly immediately falls badly, that's a small example of a manipulation but we don't know who did it.

I am not sure. the possibility can only be 5%. the price of your expectations I think is too high, if you speculate the price of monero will reach $ 150 I might agree with you.

Sometimes the hype can make you give many benefits and vice versa. Well, actually it all depends on your luck "maybe", some of us get profit from a hype.
But I am the one who doesn't like the hype situation lol , so I really agree with your post. and McAfee is just bullshit, this person just wants to get public attention.
Research cannot be a determination of success, like research information from icobench, ico trust, icorates, or any kind.

With current market conditions, it is likely that ETH reaching a price of $200 should not be difficult to achieve. currently price eth is average at position 160$.

Money can change everything.
At first the project was very trusted but in the end did not same with the roadmap schedule, and the project stopped even though their projects and tokens were in a position that had the potential to rise at the peak of higher popularity. They don't think about the long-term projects that make more money.

ICO or the type of investment that is happening now (IEO or whatever), I don't trust any kind of investment in crypto. they are all the same, only using different investment methods. I say like this because I have suffered a lot of losses when I invest.
