Yeah, the subject is quite inappropriate with the body of the text.
Anyway, I see this as beneficial to the market because all investors and prospective investors would know which coins are leading in terms of its activity in the market. With such, we are able to figure which coin is worth investing in at the moment.
I hope people, in general, will be more involved in terms of helping the market reach its full potential rather than merely relying on unverified data that is basically aimed to disenfranchise the growing number of ICO investors.
"Yeah, the subject is quite inappropriate with the body of the text." - How did you come to that conclusion??
How long the coin has been in existance (coin age) matters when 90% of ICO tokens and probably the same amount of new cryptocurrencies (coins) are predicted to fail. As stated in the article:
What is the point of this trip down memory lane?
The information above reveals just how short the lifespan can be of most cryptocurrencies and ICOs. It’s difficult to tell exactly how many of these projects have been started, but the number is looking like it may be closer to 5,000. While some of them never made it to an exchange or caused financial losses, they wasted valuable time that could have been spent working on something worthwhile. New coins and tokens carry an extreme amount of risk, and it seems as though it is only the gamblers, speculators, and fraudsters that pitch them, pump them, and dump them, that are enjoying any of the rewards.
Reputation must be earned, and it takes time to prove yourself. As an investor, it would be wise to check out the cryptocurrencies that have been around for a few years and find out why they’re still alive when so many others have failed.https://dnotesedu.com/2018/04/why-coin-age-matters-in-cryptocurrency/-------
"I hope people, in general, will be more involved in terms of helping the market reach its full potential rather than merely relying on unverified data that is basically aimed to disenfranchise the growing number of ICO investors."I have spent the last 4 years helping people learn about cryptocurrency investing, and have written the majority of the new material at DNotesEDU.com. Part of that responsibility is to make sure the new investor is aware of the risks. I work with a team that believes in the long term potential of cryptocurrencies that actually build something of value. In the last 4 years we have never asked the community for a dime (+ no ICO), and all our projects/properties have been self funded, including DNotesEDU. We have multiple revenue generating properties, new technology, a partnership with Geneca for software development, and 25% ownership in an incorporated company that will manage all these properties and provide intrinsic value to the currency. Our cryptocurrency is priced at a fraction of these new ICOs. How could I, in any good conscience, ever recommend a project that raises $100 million with nothing more to show that a whitepaper and a promise? These projects are priced as though they were already running a successful business, which leaves very little upside for investors.
I am not trying to disenfranchise any sector of people from certain 'investment' opportunities - quite the opposite - through education, I am trying to protect them from themselves.
If you would like to see how many red flags your cryptocurrency or token has, see how it holds up under this scrutiny -
