You don't need to rush, it is better to educate yourself first on cryptocurrencies, exchanges, and the market. There are always some ways to get a fund for your own exchange in the future but the most important is to gain more information on how to run exchange and how  manage the risks that associated with it. It is better to plan it first properly and continue to find ways to achieve your goals.

Many of the investors I met for the past several years have to take loan first before they start investing. Most of them lacked funds but determined to try their luck in business so they resorted to take a loan from the banks or from someone who can afford to loan them. Taking a loan to use in their investment are risky but many of their business are now profitable and they able to pay loan gradually. I think it is important to use a loan only when you are really sure on how to run the business that you planning to invest.

I think no one is really safe from these kind of hacking or phising links because they are always one step ahead in technology and they can even successfully hack a well-guarded exchange. Binance is one of largest cryptocurrency exchange and the most profitable so it is always a target by those who want to get a significant share of their fund through illegal means. Binance should fully investigate this 'KYC leak' because it might cause a serious damage to their exchange's future operation.

All my family knew is I'm working online and not engage in any cryptocurrency trading but some of them including some of my relatives knew about the cryptocurrencies. Some of them believes that virtual currencies are scam and they got their information from the news where scammers are being arrested by the authorities. I'm still trying explain to them that cryptocurrencies are not scam and they are use only by the scammers to steal money from their victims.

Only few airdrops are legitimate and profitable, others might include phising links from hackers. Any airdrop offers with suspicious links should be avoided and that includes offer that require signing messages, they should be investigated instead. Rewards from real airdrops is small compared to bounties and it takes time before it is finally distributed.

Many traders and investors are optimistic on a bitcoin bullrun this year and in next year for the halving but it is still risky investment especially if you are using your own properties. Investing in any cryptocurrencies is full of uncertainties because they are always volatile and unpredictable and you have to be prepared for any eventualities of your investment. All we can do is hope for the bitcoin to continue its bullishness and reach another all-time high in the coming months.

I agree, bounties today are no longer like the bounties before bitcoin's first ATH in december 2017. High bounty allocations are mostly posted to attract more bounty hunters but only few of them are distributed according to the given allocation of tokens. I also experience some high bounty allocation where its token become worthless when it is finally listed in the exchange. Bounties that are offered today should be examine first before joining to find if they are worth-campaigning for.

People that lacks proper information on cryptocurrencies are the ones that are easy to scam and this happens globally where cryptocurrencies are available. Aside from money laundering and terrorism, every government that are member of a group of countries that crafting a global crypto regulation should also include crypto scamming as one of the crime to be resolved. Crypto scams has more vitcims and the target is the ordinary masses that uses cryptocurrencies.

Although the present government here in my country did not yet legalize the cryptocurrency, they welcomes the idea of using it as a alternative currency by the people. Local central bank are now crafting a regulation for the use of cryptocurrency before finally legalizing it. In the coming years, some countries that bans cryptocurrencies will finally give in to the clamor of their citizens to allow the use of the coins in their country, one fine example is China.

Expect more situations like that in the future because it's always a part of the market cycle. The market provide investors the opportunity to buy coins at a lower prices during bearish time and to those holders that caught by the downtrend, just hodl your coin and wait it to recover. If you are holding strong coins then you don't have to worry about getting caught in the price decline because it will go up again.

As of now, Bitcoin has more earning potential than those altcoins because of its continuing price rally so I recommend not to sell it for altcoins. The altcoins that mentioned by the OP are considered strong coins, they had their own time for uptrend. If you are an experienced daytrader, you can always use your altcoins to earn more profits instead of holding them in your exchange or wallet.

If the altcoins go up in the coming days, it might be brief uptrend only because of continued bullishness of bitcoin even it is down. The funds for altcoins might not be enough to continue their rallies because of the investors prefer to keep the bulk of their funds to bitcoin. The pump and dump coins or the ones called shitcoins are the most vulnerable for sudden price dump so keep your funds away from them.

The present price rally of bitcoin might be the start of something big in the coming years after the bitcoin halving that will happen on the second half of 2020. I believe that this year's bullrun will be mild but it can still match or surpass its previous all-time high last 2017 before the year end. But several big corrections might still hit the top coins before that final push for this year and this corrections might pump some altcoins for several days.

If ever there is an altcoin season this year, it might be short-lived if bitcoin continuous its bullish trends throughout the year. But expect some altcoins like ethereum and litecoin to go up even bitcoin is in uptrend of ongoing development like upgrade and halving respectively. Other altcoins may eventually go up briefly if the condition become favorable to them or some big investors pump them.

There are several methods of converting cryptocurrencies into cash here in countries. Several crypto exchanges offers this kind of services like converting bitcoin into local currency through banks and remittance centers. In my country's major business district, a bank-managed crypto ATM is already available for those who want to withdraw cash using their own bitcoins. The bank plans to bring to bring this bitcoin ATM to some other parts of the country where a large bitcoin users are available.

The owner of that cafe might be inspired by the popularity of the cryptocurrency and since it is prohibited to use in their country, the owner instead, named his or her coffee shop after the leading coin. The name of the coffee shop will surely makes everyone curious and attracts them to drink coffee in that shop and inquire about its name. It is also a cool advertising for the bitcoin and make anyone aware that there another kind of currency that can use for any transactions.

Ethereum can't avoid price dump even there is an upgrade ongoing but it will not last long and will recover swiftly. Because it is not hardfork but a platform upgrade, we will see an improved ethereum next year. This ethereum upgrade might also improve the price of the coin in the years to come. There might be an another all-time high if the upgrade is proven successful.

Stricter regulations against this kind of crime should be created and enforce to eliminate them and I believe that there are already a group of countries planning to enforce it globally. Cybercriminals have been trying to evade authorities by using the internet and high technologies for so many years now even before the cryptocurrencies exists. The regulation should also focus on identifying possible illegal transactions that made through the exchanges and track them.

I only invest in cryptocurrencies after I've done a research for them especially the newly listed coins that has the potential to go up in the future. I want to find if the team and developers are continuous to be active in improving their coin or token before investing on it. Most of the altcoins are affected by the pump and dump scheme of some big investors or whales so I have to monitor the coins often with the aid of  technical indicators.
