I think among all these shady centralized exchanges i only rate binance and cobinhood as trustworthy, most other exchanges are showing fake trading volumes and massive bot trades which is not natural/organic so ot just gives a negative impression about all these exchanges, secondly decentralized exchanges that i have found to be decent are forkdelta and idex.

For a project like yours that offers a crypto wallet and a debit card that has the power to spend crypto, i will suggest you to come up with a truly global card that will increase the userbase and attract large customer base to your project and help with adoption.

If everything goes well and major economies around the world start acknowledging and accepting the crypto in its true letter and spirit then my conservative target for 2020-21 for btc is over 100k and for eth it is at 10k with overall market standing at around 3 trillion, lets stay positive and wait for the good times.

I still hope for bright future for eth and personally im eying the big events and updates coming next month, i think around the time of the upgrade after mid january eth will recover significantly and it can reach to high levels of 600 to 800 if it gets the volumes needed for the move.

Envion has been the biggest but complicated kind of scam for me, after raising big amount of money i think greed took over and the people behind either intentionally played a game or we can say drama, or some people out of all the people behind this project tried to exit scam with the money whatever the case in the end investor and supporter of this project is the biggest looser, even pathetic part is that they ran a 2 million bounty campaign where thousands of people participated and promoted this project but unfortunately not a single person was paid.
I hope some authority will take notice and refund investors and reward bounty hunters too.

Well i am not sure if this is already the ultimate bottom for eth or not but one thing is for sure eth will not always stay in such down trend and time will come when trend will change and the movement in opposite direction will be unstoppable then everyone will regret for not purchasing more now.

At all time high prices everyone was expecting the market to continue the bulls, there was huge fomo and hype that was driving the market but since the downtrend has started its continue to go down and down, most crypto investors are still holding for market to recover but no one knows when it will happen, personally i never expected this downtrend to go so deep, i know it is extremely discouraging for most of the investors but this is how crypto works now just wait for recovery.

I will put all my money in only btc and eth, as soon as the volume start coming back in the market and sentiment become positive we will see btc and eth as the first movers, secondly both these coins have already proven their worth in the market with previous highs so now is a real discount entry point for both and sooner or later market will move up so these two are solid buys right now for me.

I think it is because the coinbase is the biggest fiat to crypto wallet and exchange that offers its services in biggest economies of the world like US etc so definitely if some coin gets the achievement of listing at coinbase that is fundamentally huge event for that coin and that is reason we can see pump and hype of that coin till it lists at coinbase.

Personally i think this massive dip below 100 bucks is a great buying opportunity, those who buy now and wait for some months can reap huge returns at the same time the market is really discouraging at the moment not only for short term investors but also the serious investors, i know people invested large sums into crypto last year especially eth just have a look at it, from 1400 highs it is now trading around 80 bucks which is a decline of like 15x or more and reversal does not seem to be around yet, so the situation is quite bad and we can do nothing but hope for good time to be back soon.

You are right but do take into account the huge investments of people at the top, just feel for people who invested in btc when it was over 19k level and similarly eth at around 1400 level, most of them im sure are still holding but those who do not have anyother source and needed money must have panic sold, the worst suferers are those who took loans to invest in crypto, i think they would have defaulted because from almost a year now crypto market is only going down so people who took loans with promise of monthly repayments must be feeling the heat.

I know personally that eth and their dapps have been gaining the use cases and more and more comoanies are now utilizing these to create their new softwares or apps as dapps utilizing eth network, although current eth price levels do not reflect this popularity but im sure in future bull market eth will become very expensive.

This is just because market is under influence of an extreme corrective phase that is why everything is going down, other factors causing the dump may include negative sentiment, restrictions and regulations, different country bans, low volume and most importantly panic selling.

I was looking to promote that project by participating in their bounty campaigns because the bounty program budget was quite big but at the same time i had some negative feeling when i was researching about the project, i somehow got negative vibes about it so skipped it.

Newbies are the ones that fall into shiny and fake schemes, i do remember that when i was new i even fell for a few ponzi schemes and then slowly i learnt how things work and how to analyze each project to stay away from fake projects and ponzi schemes.

It is good to know that scammers and culprits are brought to justice especially scammers who have targetted crypto and ico trend, these events will help stop scammers and i think scammers will be discouraged especially if the earlier scammers get convicted and punished.

If crypto will be able to survive which it will then decentralized exchanges will also survive, there are already some good decentralized exchanges working really well, i personally use forkdelta and idex mostly and i find them smooth and nice also there are many new decentralized exchanges under development, so good times ahead.

I do not think number of followers matter a lot, you should check their work and business history and their reputation, if you are satisfied with their experience then you can think to invest after analysing other aspects of the project as well.

The scarcity of merit points being given nowadays is a serious problem and i think it is time to modify this system, the rank system can be relaxed a bit to discourage buying and selling of merit points, i agree with the suggestion that after an year an account should be promoted to next rank even if that account has not been able to earn required merit points, so this will take like 6 7 years to rank all the way up to legendary, i think this relaxation will also ease the discomfort and dislking exhibitted by most low ranked members here.

The basics are very clear that get greedy when everyone is fearful and be fearful when everyone is greedy, in simple words always buy from dump and sell on the peak or pump, from all these quotes we can learn that this is the time to buy perhaps.
