Hi, everyone. I got about $5000 to invest in crypto. Which one is more secure and profitable: trade crypto (yes, I'm a newbie) or invest in ICO?
I've made my own research and investing in several ICO's seems more attractive for me, but want to know your opinions Wink

trading can be very profitable if you have specific knowledge and experience. My advice would be to start trading with a small amount of money as you are a newbie and other parts of your savings invest in many many different ICOs (diversification). When you will get necessary experience in trading you will increase your investments Wink

Dont invest all your money in just one way. Try diversifying your investments, it will minimize the risks, there is always a risk involved either with investing in ICOs or with trading BTC and altcoins.
Also there is so many fake ICOs and scam projects, make your careful research before investing.

If the 5000$ is all the money for your investments then you should make portfolio of coins that you are really trust. They should have strong fundamentals behind it and good expectation in their roadmap. Don't invest more than 1-5% of your money in 1 ICO it is very very risky. Also these days many good ICOs trading cheaper then ICO price. You can pick some of the good ICO that listed already and dumped the prices.

Most ICOs are just shit and scam. They don't even have a working prototype. They take your money during ICO and never comes back. So you better avoid those ICO.
You can try trading, but learn about the market first. Get to now how everything works and how the market is affected. Try trading small amounts first. Once you get enough experience, you can try investing on larger amount.

If you're a newbie, you probably not very keen on trading, so please stay away from trading, at least for only this time. You can start by reading the forum and checking bitcoin price analysis on the internet.

Never invest in altcoins these days becasue their trend is downwards.

Both are with their risks and both require knowledge, I think in the current climate trading is better, many ICOs are struggling right now so it is really hard to pick a winner

Putting those funds on ico's is going to give you a nice surprise if that ico is succesfull and only if they dont run out with your funds, but this kind of situation is only happening on 1 of 10 cases, so dont be dumb and dont invest that money on icos, it is very risky because you dont even know if you are going to get your coins back, not even your investment back.
So use that money to do your own trading, that is the best desicion that you can make right now.

It all depends on what coin you would trade or invest. Some ICO's fail and some become a scam, but when the ICO you pick end up successfully and the coin/token was listed on good exchanges, it's a win win. While in trading, you should know how it works first or else you'll lose as well, advantage is you could always try with a small amount to start with. Always pick more than one coin/token or ICO that you think is good and you could do both by diversifying your money. Who knows, it might turn out well Smiley

For now trade is better, if following ico is more profitable but for now most ico scam. So you have to choose which ico look will grow and a lot of followers if ico did not experience or failed chances ico will not pay you.

Unless the ico has discount, buy it. If not.  Its a total waste of time and money.  Some ico coins posted a year ago are still below at their ico price.  Just take a look at Chronobank time now still under 1/3 of its ico price.

That's a huge amount of money for me but my suggestion is here, diversify it into different asset. Go buy bitcoin for about $3k and then hold for good, the rest $1k trade with atlcoins and if you really want to invest on good ICO then put the last $1k. But make sure you are ready for what ever may happen.

I think trading will still the best way to earn, at least when you make mistakes your money wont totally gone, investing in ICO need a lot time to do the research and there are so many scam, so I believe trading is safer, but in trading you need  to be more active and you are going to read a lot of things before you can get the skill

Yeah diversify your asset for you to lessen the risk. This is a good idea for your asset allocation. Well if you are just new in this kind of market I suggest that you put some money on your knowledge for you to learn all the basic thing about trading and also investing so you will make good money in return. Just be more careful on joing ICO because not ICO are succeed on their project.

Also there is so many fake ICOs and scam projects, make your careful research before investing.

Diversifying is always the best way. You should split your money and make a few of both, ICOs need supporters of course otherwise they never turn into value tokens, but also you need to do your due diligence about the product they are trying to fund. Also if you want your money to short-term investment ICOs not usually the way unless they have exchanges set to be listed or sometimes they already have some tokens in the market or the Pré ICO already successful or something of the sort. For some coins, you better of buying them when the hit exchange, so diversify is the best way. I might give a few examples of what I am saying here.

Both. Half trading and half ico. In ico split again into minimum 5 project  and trading also into minimum 5 coins.

if you want to trading, you need to learn basic of trading by reading some info in many source and watching video in youtube or other sites. you need to have a skills so you can make profit in trading and you need time to know how to trade with good. but if you want to invest your money in ico, then you need to know the details for every ico and you should select only the ico that you think it will gets success for a long time but this is difficult to choose the ico. my suggestion is you can divide your money to trading and ico at the same times so you can work with both and gain a profit in future but yes you still need to learn both trading and reading the ico.
