how to invest safely in cryptocurrency?

[coinporch]

if I think personally a safe way to invest in cryptocurrency is :

1. the project runs according to the roadmap and whitepaper that has been made;
2. cryptocurrency that we invest in already has a product;
3. the team always updates about the progress that is happening in the project that we invest;
4. invest in project that are in the top 1-500 in coinmarketpcap (have a high volume);
5. the project we want to invest has been running for a long time (if I personally never invested in a new project), because investing in new project has a greater risk than we invest in old project.

well, personally i agree with you,
and in my opinion number three is the most important thing mate
because a project will success or not in the future is depends with their team
simple maybe you should invest at the TOP 100 coin only, because it safer buddy

One of the safest investments soon to be available in the cryptocurrency market is IX15 Digital Currency Equal Weight Index Fund Token (STO)

It provides investors with exposure to over 75% of the digital currency marketing by holding the top 15 digital currencies equally dollar weighted and re-balanced every 30 days. 

Isonex Capital the company behind it are 100% self-funded, fully developed and ready to go from launch.

The value of the token is determined by the underlying value of the digital currencies in the fund, therefore the net asset value of the tokens can be calculated.  Also the cool thing is that IX15 fund tokens can be liquidated directly via the Smart Contract in return for ETH.  So you dont have to find a counterparty on exchange that wants to buy them from you, you can just liquidate 24/7.

For more information go to the Isonex Capital website - www.isonex.io or follow their thread on bitcointalk https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=5178243.0

for point number 4, I agree, but ranking up to 500 I think it's risky to recognize a good project. to invest I think 10 rankings of coin marketcap is good for the long term. considering the trading volume, I suggest not to leave bitcoin as the biggest asset we hold, in my opinion bitcoin is the safest asset with 70% market cap

Investments are now irrelevant. Today, the market has already passed the correction and many cryptocurrencies will not raise their prices. Alas, today is a very bad situation for investment. Try to learn trading on the stock exchange or participate in promising IEO.

The Top 500 seems to be too broad and risky, in our opinion should only invest in the top 50 currencies of the market.
Or invest in a project that the development team makes public and the project runs on schedule. Also never invest beyond what you are willing to lose.

I think current situation is little hard to predict the future value. But it is not a irrelevant because we know it will going to moon on upcoming months because traders are buy and sell at continuously so raise and fall happen on further days. Bitcoin is the major role on crypto market so once it will move forward everyone think safely. I hope end of the year everyone understand the crypto safe.

Some coins can reach whips up to over 100%, but these coins are very few, you should learn about that project. However, just to be safe, you should only invest in USD, I think profit always comes with risks. The copper coins are quite good for your choice. At this point, you probably need to keep it for a long time.

It's easy to give a suggestion but it's really difficult to invest in a safe way in this cryptocurrency due to a lot of bad indicators, Nowadays the rate of investment is going in a slow rate because of the lack of credibility. there are some good way to judge a good project such as looking very carefully their portfolio and profile of their members, the whitepaper is also played a vital role, always try to invest in the potential platform if you think. personally, I don't like investing in the new coming project because of having a lot of risk factors. so try to invest in the giant platform then you can feel safe also.

Follow just two rules -

* Invest in bitcoin & just hold for long term.
* Don't sell below your buy price.

I think that soon a good time will come to the cryptocurrency market and it will not be too long to hold coins. very soon everyone who could survive will make a profit

You are wrong, not all top 500 altcoins have high volume and its very risky to invest in any coins and tokens under top 100, it doesn't keep them safe and they can still die or become pump and dump project, years back when coins that ever existed is not over 100 many coins still die or turn scam at that time

[leea-1334]

I don't think your fourth option is reasonable. There are lots of coins pumped in at a given time and after that, the team will unlock the token and exit the scam.
An example is Egretia, which once earned over $ 300 million and now its value is only $ 1.7 million.
I think you should eliminate that option, it's really risky

Yes,,, agree here 100%. Every time someone suggests top coin by coinmarketcap (or any other data using market capitalization), I cannot understand the logic.

No need to think of Egretia. At least it is still 5% of value. I mean ETH even now is only 12% of value.

Look at Bitconnect. Top 3 and now ZERO value.

Your points is true about how safety investing in cryptocurrency, today we not found all points have you mention above because many ICO or IEO always have lower price after listing with market.

[jmigdlc99]

I believe the safest way to invest in crypto is to put in the time and effort in educating yourself on different aspects.
Like for example:

1. Learning the fundamentals of crypto
2. Analyzing and studying crypto trading patterns
3. Learning about crypto market cycles

Experience is the best teacher,  until you learn or experience more, you will never be successful in crypto (unless you win a lottery!).

[rafajunior99]

In my opinion to invest safely, you are better off doing it by buying Altcoin that is already in exchange, because if the investment that is already in exchange is very small the risk of loss, but if investing in an ongoing or recently made project, I not sure what you invest into a valuable asset for you to have in the future. Why can I say it like that, because many projects offer excellent vision and mission but in reality at the end of the project they are blind to their reality.

[thisnewcoin]

The safest investment in crypto is to invest in Bitcoin. You don't have to check whitepaper, roadmap, team activity! Soon or later you will get a huge profit. Otherwise, I agree with your points except for the top 500 coins. My opinion is only top 150 coins are good enough for investment.

this is not a safety condition. if the project does not work and it has a low trading volume, then it can simply be removed from the exchange and then you will cry

i have my own way and they are very simple if it within top 100 and daily trade volume more than  1m and market cap 10m il consider its worth to invest.many coins spend there ico money to worthless works.if project keeping money and do some investment or backed by some real value thing il invest

Though market volume is much considerable but I don't really think of having those top100 in my list. Cause it absolutely among of those top 100 coins in the market, only a few if them could have a good market returns. To be more in realistic and could have assurance, it'll be better to go along with the top 10.
It actually there is no need to have a lot of coins invested in order to become profitable, it is totally depend of the coin we've chosen and 3-5 coins are good enough.

First of all, a project needs to be honest to accumulate support of investors and traders. Honesty means they act on their road map, whitepaper, timely payments to  bounty hunters, regularly update of their telegram channel and website and update their clients about every new updates, respect their clients. I look at these qualities for a crypto project to become a good one.

[Impaler]

Yeah, you point out some good points. But in my opinion after all this there is a chance that you end up with a scam. In this market if you stick with high volume coins that's the only chance you are not into a scam. Still there is volatility , so nothing is safe ,you have to take the risk if you want to invest.

Good evening. And what makes sense to you the most today, talking about profitability? Are you trading?
