People paying $1200 for 1 Ethereum are crazy... You only get rich buying CHEAP

[Hawaii2020]

I have also think along this line before but one thing that I have seen common is that most of the coins that has cheap prices are alway get dump  in a very high rate that most time clear one investment. I think coins with high market cap do withstand preasure from the market compared to those with lower market cap. Ethereum from  $10 this time last year to $1,078 as at this moment has done well and to me worth investment more than every other coins

yah but its only a good investment for you beause you paid $10. its not a good investment for those who buy it for $1400 a few days ago. it has no room to grow now.

something as SPACECHAIN will go x10 immediately when the whitepaper releases, the partnerships, the new exchanges, that tim draper is in it (spacex, skype) and the others. so people think ETH is safe but really its not. Spacechain is safe.

Same for waltonchain. its at almost a billion dollar now, but its still pretty low to many coins that are higher. because they have a good team too and patents.

You should check connectx this people is in space business for very long time already, they already have very good plan of how they will monetize their satellite constellation, not only for space storage but there is commodity trading platform already planned and worked out for their system once it is going live

Thanks, I check it out but its a little different. SpaceChain is a FOUNDATION like eth. They aim to work together with all space companies and bring space exploration, technology forward. That along with Tim Draper in the TEAM. They have very strong partners too.

Your project sounds like an interesting idea but also very risky.

That's the risk of crypto currency investment, sometimes the cheap coin even run for scam , it's not something new and people looking for a better offer. Ethereum with big market capitalization makes them feel it's secure to invest there and get some profit even not for *8 *20 or so, that's the reason.

I dont think many coins would still run for a scam in 2018. They can collect so much money nowadays being legit... there is no reason anymore for a scam. If they run, they wont collect anymore funds. If they stay, they make a lot more money. Some may be very lazy yes. Or incompetent. But scams? I am pretty sure some coins we see now that are going kinda well may have started as scam but people realized "why run?"

It was different in begin of 2017, 2016 when most coins had no millions like they have now.

Anyway, for ETH... Its an illusion its safe because its big..... If there ever is a crash of 90% then ETH will get valued at what its REALLY worth..... without all the people shilling for it... Without all the "experts" who want to push the price higher..........

[Bessta]

I dont think you'll only earn big profits. If some are paying $1200  for eth its because they believe its price would soar more. But you are also correct in saying that one should get rich in investing in cheap coins specially if you chose the potential alts. It will depend on your strategies and of course if you do your research well to determine which alts are really worth investing.

[peter.from.penn]

Ethereum has an advantage of far more adoption than any of it's competitors, like Stratis, Waves, or EOS.  I think that it will continue to lead the pack for some time.  However, the best money in my opinion comes from low market cap ALTS with potential.  

[jlpabilonia]

we only need the eth to participate in some ico and we use eth so that we can send some token in exchange. but if you want to invest in earn profit also.. but i dont think that you can earn big profit from eth.. you are right that one should get rich in investing in some cheap coins. but it depends in you plan or in your strategies. You need to research about what token or coin you can get or earn big profit and then observe what token has a good potentials to pump up.

[Hawaii2020]

i think people can still make a fortune if they find the next eth. metaverse by a neo founder is still quite cheap

Exactly. But many people dismiss the fact that only the early BTC,ETH investors got rich. Not those who buy the bubble. Now its those getting rich who bought Neo, Raiblocks.. and soon it will be those who bought the coins that are now cheap.

yeah but do we even need so many ico? many of the eth icos are just useless

it can be much better if eth just disappears and new startups have to make their own blockchain and bring real innovation. eth is killing innovation and crypto as a whole.

Point is that you have to diversify portfolio.

Global market cap is still a water drop compared to Stocks (NASDAQ) etc.
Therefore, there is space to grow for everybody, but it's pretty clear that sooner or later market is gonna operate a natural selection: too many coins, too many useless projects, too many ICOs.
You can't bet all of your cash on huge potential grows, you have to split it on stable, less remarkable potential grow coins, but it can be safer.
ETH, BTC are that kind of products.
And fundamental is to take profit and convert it in FIAT from time to time to decrease your exposure level and be possible ready to invest more when strong dips happen.

well paying 1200$ for one eth is not making them stupid because ETH is the 2nd best coin out there and many crypto geeks expect value of 2000$ for eth buy the end of 2018. it is hard to predict anything but eth really has a healthy team and technology.....would say they are on the right path.

I agree with you. Eth has a great roadmap laid out and its technology is being conaidered now by legitimate companies. And you don't necessarily have to but a whole eth to invest. Any amount invested in etherium would one day be well worth it for its investors

[kryptqnick]

So I made x30 with Verge and Tron. Also made x20 with some other coins. I like to buy cheap and sell for a great price and I made a little fortune in only a few months.

Proofs of such strong claims would be appreciated. And, as for eth-like cheap coin, I think eos is the best one. Pretty much like eth, just has some improvements, good team and a huge marketcap already.

most of new coin just out from developer brainstorm room is offered for sale in ethereum in the form of token sale, so owning ethereum now guarantee you much better price when you need to buy the cheapest coin you expected to go up in price later on

As a lot of coins are traded to eth, it might be a good coin to keep for those purposes. However,  I didn't get this min token sale prices if you have eth. And besides, one can always lose eth due to some bug reason, so I am trying to stay away from this coin.

any amount invested in eth is dead capital when you can invest in new projects that can still go x10, x20 or even x50, x100 if you are lucky. crypto is not the stock market where the biggest are the best. this is an evolving market and eth technology will be replaced some day by better technology.

If people are confident that Ethereum will reach more than 1200 USD why wouldn't they buy from 1200 USD? It might be a short term 1200 to 1500 gain or long term 1200 to 10000. If you know about your investment you can take the risk. There is no rule that you only make money with small marketcap coins.

did you hack the account or are you for real?

you realize a $100m market cap coin will grow 1000 times more easy than eth?

[Holy Dank]

I could see ETH at 5k to 7k by the end of 2018.

Alternately, NEO could be 1k to 1.5k by the end of 2018.

ETH probably wont appreciate as fast as some alt coins, but ETH is relatively stable and I believe will increase over the course of the year.

What are you talking about newbie? Can you even read?

If I know Ethereum will go to 1500 USD next week I can buy shitload of ETH with my money. I'm not a small fish like you. %25 guaranteed profit is great for me.

well it looks like you are new to crypto because nothing in crypto is guaranteed. so you probably purchased the bitcointalk account from someone. this usually happens after accounts get hacked.

i invested in early in many very promising projects and was very, very lucky so i know i would have only lost money in eth. as eth only has the risk of the bubble popping but no upside of making x10, x20 or even x50 as smaller projects.

edit: and yes your account is hacked because the original owner never even made any posts in english... and you never made any in his language.... óf course now you will tell us some excuse like that you suddenly forgot your native language after a long coma...

[bohr]

some may decide to still buy coins at high prices because they think it is a safer investment

did these people not go to school, never learn about millionaires and how to win?

At the end it depends on what you are looking, some are looking to make fortunes with crypto but some other are just looking for better returns than the ones the stock market can give, the stock market can give something between 6 to 10 percent per year and bitcoin and ethereum give way better returns than that, so that may be enough for them since they are not willing to take greater risks.
