For those who did not rush into trading, I really believe it is something that would have been very much worth it so far.
I remembered when I first started on bittrex and I got a little bit lost not knowing where to even start from.

I bumped into a market that was already going up and I entered as a FOMO (I didn’t know the meaning of this back then though), later on, I just made Google and some platforms my best friend and it has been a lot of honeys all these while.

Yes. Knowing the altcoin you want to invest in is actually the most important step to take first.
It is long-term we are talking about and not all coin will definitely make it to the end. It is most definite that some of them would get blasted out of the scene and then we will have the top ones with good team and good project doing well for them-selves. Those are the things one should look out for when investing in any coin.

The fact that EtherDelta is a decentralized exchange even though it is all ERC20 tokens is really what tripped me before even trying to do some ICO investments and then doing quick trades when they get launched as bounty hunters always dump quickly anyway so I can buy back at lower price with some profits.

It was not easy at first, no doubt, but over time, things got easier and I can even close my eye now and trade on ED. (I really would not want to do that though)

I really do not know why people watch the market for too long. Find a good position most especially at dips and get in.

If you wish to study the charts before making a purchase and you are sure of what you are doing or how to analyze the chart to get the best position in, then go ahead, otherwise if you do not have any idea what to do, just like the correction we are having presently, buy in and watch the growth in the long term. If you keep studying, you may miss the best chance to buy now.

Trading is not that easy as it is heard in fact trading needs a lot of research, a good knowledge and some good earning skills. Trading also needs a lot of patience and a individual who lacks in patience cannot have good profit but will be served with some major loses.

Altcoin trading depends on the skills you trade with them. Also remember they never to purchase any coin which is rapidly rising as the chances of having looses there is quite high. Instead always find a coin which is at dip and in its way to rise up. Good research can help you with it.

Currently we don't have any Bitcoin ATM in my country. It could prove a profitable concept to open a bitcoin ATM in such places.

Along with these, opening a Bitcoin Bank can be profitable. Completely decentralized bank giving good interest for keeping bitcoins for a fixed time interval can attract attention of many more new users. There are a lot of business opportunity for bitcoins but even i am waiting for my government to legalize bitcoins.

Your questions really got me laughing. Gambling in the first place should not be seen as a way to make money but as a way to have fun which would help you to curb most of the scenario that you have painted in case you end up losing. I am happy you know sometimes you win and then you lose, it is a 1:1 thing.

If you win, take your funds and run away, if you lose as well, accept your loss and move on. You cannot avoid losing and it is part of the game, so if you cannot accept that, it is better not to even try gambling at all.

Anticipating result is because you actually expect the other side of the result as well and that is what makes our blood hot, and get our palpitation levels higher when it comes to gambling.

Experience can only help you in the decisions you make and your approach towards gambling but when it comes to the game itself, you just have to rely on your luck mostly, while in some, you can just add a little bit of strategy to boost your chance but does not guarantee anything.

There are so many sites offering bitcoin poker. At least I know of cryptogames. So we cannot really say we do not have bitcoin poker. The only difference here is you are not playing with another player but with the system and we all know that we cannot beat the house edge most especially when it comes to playing directly with the platform. It may be provably fair, who knows really ?

The reason why a lot of people are looking for the crash is because they are just looking for a position to buy and hoping they can get lucky. That kind of luck is something only a huge FUD can even cause which at this stage of bitcoin's life is something we may not really see much of. Corrections are what we can only be seeing at the moment and the way I see it, bitcoin have been able to pass the stage of such huge corrections.

If you have been following the charts, you would have known that we have been having some corrections and the fact that they are not huge does not mean they should be discarded and it just says one thing, the market is getting stronger than we can imagine as a little drop now, so many people are on ground ready to gulp it. At this stage, let bitcoin get lower than $8500 and you will see the level at which investors would rush in.

Some actually have decided to keep themselves out of the loop and fight it which to me they are not even doing themselves and the citizens any good by doing so. There is no bad image to remove, and as far as I am concerned, most governments are just not ready to accept the threat bitcoin may pave for fiats while some of them are trying to take their time not to be too much in a rush, but a lot is going on silently.

And as far as I can tell, anything can be used for improper usage. Anonymous transaction is even something that should not really be expected much now anyway, but we cannot expect people not to always find a way around anything.

Asides bitcoin, so many coins with even crazier level of anonymity are popping up, so bitcoin should even be less worried about. One thing is people have been doing their shady deals before bitcoin.

But it depends on the circumstances of the trading we are talking about. Most times, diverting your attention only when you know what is right to do but your emotion is just trying to get in the way is sure good. However, trying to not get emotional or divert your attention when you do not even have any idea of the right decision to take in the first place is what is bad.

Aside these, like you said, we always have to keep our brains calm and the only way to do that is to be sure of the decisions we are making based on our knowledge and stick to our strategies no matter what.

A lot of investors tend to take some crazy risks into HYIPs while looking for ways to double what they are holding.

The best thing is for those who cannot trade, or probably diversify their portfolio to hold some alts just as you said, it is best they leave their funds in their wallet and watch it grow. What is the point anyway taking huge risks when holding bitcoin itself is an investment ?

Anyone who can trade effectively and smartly will actually make a lot in this crypto world. Trading ordinary BTC to USD in these recent days of the price hike, I know what I would be expecting to make as profit in the long run. There are so many opportunities to make use of in the crypto world, but you just have to be smart and learn how you can utilize them.

Honestly! For a new investor, I really do not see any reason to hopping around until you are familiar with the whole crypto ecosystem. There is a lot to learn but at least with BTC, the safety is guaranteed being the most supported and trusted coin to disrupt the way we have been spending all these while.

The value will keep increasing and as time goes on when you start understanding the world of Altcoins and ICOs, and then you can start joining.

Well, that is your own call, which is why people like you with this kind of mentality are the ones you stay on the news and panic sell at every single minute you get, only to regret your actions in the long run. If you understand how bitcoin works, then you would not say that.

However, we all understand that there is risk in every investment, which does not exempt stocks and real estate, so it all balls down to the level of risk each individual might be willing to take. Real estate is a very good investment but comparing to stock is just like disrespecting bitcoin.

If crypto does not have any value at all, then we could have as well just considered it a bubble and most people are just getting in to rake a lot from the demand.

Most of these so called economists do not even understand how crypto works and then they go to the media to spew the rubbish their head tells them to spew and at the end go to the back to buy in once they are able to mislead their dumb followers.

That is one advantage robot has really been able to bring. We cannot discard the fact that things will keep evolving and getting better while we end up not being able to do things the way we used to. I remember in the past when we can only send messages via post mail and then emails started and things changed with internet.

Robots are just another way of making things better and that is just one side of technology that makes it disadvantageous as humans are replaced but we just have to adapt and find other means of survival.

NEO really look very positive right now. It is still too early to get anything from confido. I really have a lot of hope for this token, knowing it is a project that would really be relevant and if the devs can push it harder to do a good job then it would work.

Everyone needs an escrow service at one point or the other and that sounds pretty good to me from the onset. So far that it has been listed, at least, there has been no huge dump on this coin and I expect it to do better.
