I usually check the website and the whitepaper, then after checking those I look at the team especially the developers and CEO’s of the ICO. Checked them if they are real people through linked.in and see if they are not scammers or the like.

It is possible that bitcoin will reach that amount by New Year or it could be the opposite as well especially now that the segwit that’s happening is not really supported by the exchanges so I don’t think Bitcoin will be moving that much although it had been stable for a couple of days already and the altcoins mostly depend on bitcoins price so we’ll see what happens next before the year ends.

Buy altcoins when you feel like the amount is enough for you because if you keep on waiting for the dump or its lowest price then you are waiting for like forever. I've been in the same situation and kept on waiting for the lowest price it could ever achieve but ended up waiting for nothing because when it did dip down it skyrocketed back again and it was late for me to buy them for its lowest amount. Just set yourself a goal and set the buy order in advance and wait if your buy order had been a success.

Rate is not constant that’s a known fact but it also depends on how much XRPnis worth by the time you buy it. So most likely it does not really matter if you bought btc at 16k or 18k, because if XRP is dumping then you’ll buy a lot of XRP coins rather than when it is pumping.

I think if bitcoin crashes most of the altcoins crashes too but there would be some altcoins that would probably stay but of course the price would most likely drop down.

Actually there is no assurance on to which coin can make you gain 1% daily however you can invest in a lot of coins if you have the money for investment and place your bets on the top 10 coins that are currently hot today. You have a lot of choices to choose from, just check at coinmarket.com to see which are the current top coins.

I think the worst mistake in gambling I did was when I played all in and never learned, did it like more than twice until such time that I didn't have enough funds for the whole week because I was so greedy and think I could win back the losses I've made. And mind you, I was always confident when I go all in and regretted it afterwards when all of my money is gone.

I think Raiblocks is going to be one of the top coins by 2018 and I regret why I sold all my coins a couple months ago, I wasn't really expecting Raiblocks to grow big because at first I just thought it would be one of these dead coins I was looking into and never got a chance to check its update. And decided to just sell all my coins and get out while I still can, but look at its price now and its sudden increase.

For me it really doesn’t matter because both Ethereum and Bitcoin are fluctuating but Ethereum is more stable than Bitcoin as of its current price. So in my opinion I don’t think you really need to sell your altcoins for as long as you don’t need the money yet and just hold on to them for some time until it reaches an amount you are targetting on.

What surprise me was some of these altcoins I bought early this year increased its price and I wasn’t really expecting them to increase that much within this year although I am planning to hold on to these coins for a couple more years to go.

NEM/XEM would be a great coin to incest in 2018 but I don’t know if it is a Ledger supported coin though or you can invest in Deep Onion too, it’s one of the coin I would want to invest in next year once I get my salary.

I think it’d be either XEM/NEM or probably just bitcoin itself. I can’t think of any cryptocurrency that has gained that much in a month other than bitcoin but of course it can’t just go up forever since it is always fluctuating.

It is possible however it does need a very deep and serious plan so the owners can probably think of a new way of paying players in bitcoin, I think that would be a great idea however it would need a huge amount to invest in too.

I just invest in BTC with just a little amount of what's left of my savings and from the money I bought Christmas gifts for my family too. I've given it a much deeper thought and decided to invest in BTC for the whole year again.

Yes because some are using it for the Christmas holidays and of course wanted to buy gifts for the family so they are mostly cashing out, but for those who have extra money I'm preety sure they are cashing in while bitcoins price went down.

If not investing in cryptocurrencies I think I would’ve been investing in something business related or just simply place my money in the bank on a savings account waiting for profits annually.

I’d prefer Ethereum rather than Litecoin because in my opinion, most investors or people who are creating ICO’s prefer to use the Ethereum blockchain so that means it is widely used than that of Litecoin.

After a huge loss I usually try to trade again and correct my mistakes. I just don’t give up easily so most of the time I strive much harder to regain from the losses and make profits from a different coin.

Yes it is possible that government may ban Bitcoin because the government may be able to control the cryptocurrencies once it is Centralized. And if they are not able to control them and would not be centralized then there is a possibility it could be banned.

I do believe Bitcoin will reach a new all time high again but no one can speculate yet if it'll be by the start of 2018 and I really do hope it would be by January so we could start the new year with a bang. Lots of people would be happy as well starting their new years with that amount of bitcoin. Monitoring the charts would also get you an idea if it'll reach that amount or not so keep an eye on Bitcoins charts before the year ends.
