Petro has been around for a while and had a lot of bad publicity. There are some shady goings on with it and the president of Venezuela. I wouldn't even touch the Venezuelan fiat country given their monetary policy shortcomings, so I won't touch their crypto with a barge pole.

i agree. also, we don't even know if they have real collaboration with the government or maybe marketing propaganda only. we don't know the truth behind such coin. traders might just go with the hype and get as much as they can.

So many countries have created awareness about this coin. I never heard the news about this coin again. It looks like maduro has created a lot of marketing propaganda as you said. petro is owned by maduro but the parlement called that as a scam coin and that was i getting from the latest news about this coin.

Well, it is supposed to be backed by the country's oil, gas and mineral reserves and is intended to supplement Venezuela's plummeting "Bolívar Soberano currency", as a means of circumventing U.S. sanctions and accessing international financing. But which country or person is willing to buy the Petro not even their allies like China (perhaps Russia) want to trade in cryptocurrencies so we can say that this crypto coin it is probably dead before even born

For the Venezuelan token Petro is better to watch from the side. This is a very problematic token, though, as if backed up by Venezuelan oil. There are so many scandals around this token that for the time being it is better not to engage them. Now there are so many other cryptocurrencies that you can pay attention to.

First crypto back by a government? I'll wait in the sidelines and watch first before putting anything in it.
Let's see where this leads 

[jossiel]

No. Inflation on Venezuela is too high and no one is also taking Petro coin as their investment and though it has been backed by the government its worth is nothing. People don't want to take this even a "government" is backing it.

Why? they are in crisis and that's why people aren't taking anything that's being supported by the government there.  If you all have heard the news that this coin is about to be dead soon, no serious interest on it.

[Herbert2020]

when it comes to trading, i don't that much of a difference between this coin and any other altcoin. the fact that it is created by the Venezuelan government doesn't change much in my opinion. if this coin were to be listed on exchanges that i have an account on, and if i can speculate its pump and dumps then i would surely invest and make my profit in short term and get back out of it like what i have been doing with any other altcoin so far.

The Petro is the first scam coin issued by a government. It is centralised coin and issued by a Government so incompetent that even though it has larger proven oil reserves than Saudi Arabia has made such a mess of its economy that all its citizens are fleeing the place like it is a war zone. No sorry, don't see anything good coming from investing in the Petro.

[Ostonian]

You can announce anything, but how viable such a crypto will be. Although a drowning man grabs at a straw. As far as I know, in Venezuela, there is absolutely trouble in the economy, maybe a coin will bring the country out of crisis.
However, the fact that this cryptocurrency will help resolve the financial crisis in the country, I doubt it. At least, to fulfill this, we need almost the full support of the government, and most importantly, the people.

[Anatolich]

You can consider this as an investment, if they talk about $ 60, then in real life there can be at least 3-4 times profit, it can be interesting.

[Ghebung Masam]

if Petro hasn't been adopted massively and hasn't been used by the Venezuelan community, then I doubt that Petro can reach $ 60.

[BitcoinHodler]

most probably i would never touch this coin mainly because it is centralized although it is not the worst kind of centralization since there is a government behind it instead of a shady company with unknown people who are obviously scamming you!
but this coin exists and their government have been advertising it a lot and have been trying to make it bigger. i have yet to see the price and its market though!

[Cryptomilz]

No single coin launched in this space got launched with a projected price, such are seen as scams well packaged by the scammers. In this case of the Venezulan Petro coin, it's not one coin I'll be looking to invest as it's more or less like having the Bolivar in your hands and that currency is ravaged by hyperinflation

[dicaprio]

I think that this testing of cryptocurrency on the real economy of the world is a standard procedure, because for integration everywhere, some kind of country should have tested this technology on itself

[boranes]

Crypto backed by government is not something I am looking for and I will never support any crypto which is launched by single country.
I don't think this is good investment.

A cryptocurrency made do bailout the government is already a red flag because we all know that they will try to sell their stakes for USD to be able to by commodities or help their local currency. If you know that somebody is making a cryptocurrency to get more fiat money you shouldn't touch it, even with a long stick.
The second red flag is that the government that is responsible for it is feeble and can't manage the economy. You don't want those people to be in control of your money.

[Thomas-s]

I think that Petro it is just the same crypto bubble that is inflated after the national currency has already burst.

[GreenAnat]

I do not plan to buy this coin, but this is good news for the entire cryptocommunity, that whole states are beginning to support cryptocurrency and create their own. This is a good sign!
