What have you done/are you doing with your ICO coins?

[bittreo]

Hi fellas!

We have witnessed a tremendous ICO trend in 2017-18. I am sure a lot of you would have participated in many ICOs. If not, you would have received altcoins as a payment mode from bounties. So, what have you done to them? If you haven't sold them, what is your plan with them?

I had participated in more than a dozen of ICOs and I am still holding their coins. They include:

1. Wanchain (WAN)
2. ICON (ICX)
3. Elastos (ELA)
4. Ren Protocol (REN)
5. Project Pai (PAI)
6. Walimai (WABI)
7. Request Network (REQ)
8. Quantstamp protocol (QSP)
9. Ripio Credit Network (RCN)
10. Apex (CPX → PHX)
11. Nash Exchange (NEX)
12. Lympo (LYM)
13. Experty (EXY)
14. Cardstack (CARD)
15. Insights Network (INSTAR)
16. Remme Protocol (REMME)
17. Atonomi (ATMI)
and a few more...

It's not that I lost a huge sum as a very few of them had returned back invested amount. But I am not sure now what to do with these. So, if you are holding any of these of such ICO tokens, what are you planning to do with 'em.

[Festac]

I still recognized wanchain, ICON, Nash exchanges, if you are still holding then this might be a good time to sell them for good money, I'm talking about this altcoin season though, I believe that very soon all altcoins will surge higher, though I don't know if all these altcoins are still active or not but if development is still ongoing then it's a good thing

[Rodeo02]

If I am the owner of those tokens, I will sell them all and convert it to BTC or eth .then I will start daily trading so I can earn money using that capital daily. It's only depend if how much money you can get in that tokens in today's price the higher the capital the better since it's easy to earn money in trading if you know how to play it with less risk than holding any altcoin.

[Yaunfitda]

I guess it's just two things:

(a) Hold and 'believe' that will have some value in the future, giving you so much profits specially that we are somewhat in the altcoin bull run

(b) Sell them and switch to other coins that will give you profits in such short time without waiting for your tokens to be push thru pump and dump scheme.

So it's really your choice, hard to give financial advise so I do hope that you make the right decision.

[Jating]

Don't get me wrong, but most of them are shitcoin anyways, so why not dump them this early and switch to a better altcoin like Ethereum or go all in  Bitcoin?

I have a couple of tokens from the ICO in 2018, unfortunately, I can't dump them right now because the project eventhough it has been listed on exchanges are not allowing any one to trade with it. So I'm stuck, you are lucky that some of your tokens are already tradeable so If I'm in your shoes, I will liquidate all of them and stick to more promising altcoins, specially in the top 10.

Sorry, but how could you participate in many of these projects since this is only your second forum post? Or is this your alt account?
In that case, why are you posting from a new account and not from the main account? Makes no sense.


BTW, What happened to your Bittreo project?

Every bubble has to have its paradigm. 2017 bitcoin bubble paradigm was - new global money that will replace fiats. After bitcoin hit 20k, network was so spammed that transaction cost 200$ (paradigm failed). Than every investor start to search for "new bitcoin", faster, better that could replace bitcoin as new world currency. Market was also full of retail investors with very low experience in trading/investing. That's why money flooded into altcoins creating alt season with 100% daily gains.

Will such thing repeat? I strongly daubt. If we will see next bitcoin/crypto bubble it will be institutions/professional investors/professional traders money with paradigm - 5% of every well balanced portfolio. They will not invest in link - oracle ... worth $ 5 bln without any documented profit, they will not invest in promise of something worth $500 mln, they are too smart to do that . What I'm trying to say ... most likely, during this crypto bubble, we will not see good gains on alts. Current ALT/BTC price might not repeat ... ever.

I would start to dump them all. Slowly ... not everything in one day, not everythign today. Just try to find tops and dump few% of investment. Find another top and dump again. Try to get rid of them but slowly. Maybe some of them will pump but it will be pump and dump, use pump and dumps like smart money, to dump.

[tycsols]

If i would be holding all these coins i will wait more, as market is constantly improving i think in a year prices will grow well, so that would be ideal time to sell and take profit so i would suggest you to do the same but its your money so you have to decide yourself.

[Harriti]

Wow, don't tell me you have kept all these coins since 2017 and haven't sold any?
If that was the case, then you missed an opportunity to become rich. It's unfortunate that the altcoins of 2017 are either dead now or the team is no longer active. Only valuable coins such as Wanchain, ICON, Elastos and Quanstamp remain. All cash flow is only being poured into Defi, top coin and Bitcoin projects.
So I recommend that you spend about 1-2 days analyzing the remaining altcoins to see if the team is still active or not. Otherwise, sell all of them and use that money to invest in the top coin, it makes more sense, especially XRP and ETH. The profits you bring will definitely be higher than the altcoins because XRP and ETH's communities are fomo very strong in their coin.

It's always a bad idea to keep holding altcoins even when there is a big chance to sell them, I guess you've missed the chance to make biggest ROI in January 2018, majority of these altcoins aren't so active anymore and some are even dead, altcoins that aren't top 10 are always better for short term hold, you could have sell for Ethereum and bitcoin instead.

How come you loss on this coin, your list is a good coin that pump during 2017 bull run? Holding while you have sure profit during the bull run is a very bad decision that many traders always do. It's been 2 to 3 years and very late to cut loss. Just hold and watch closely on this coin for this upcoming altcoin bull run. You should sell it if ever the price reach 70 to 80 percentage of your purchase price. Chasing the original price is very dangerous.

[Zalfa_mui]

why do you still hold your token, why don't you sell it if it can be sold.  I participated in many ICOs and I have sold all of my work, some I did not sell because the ICO failed and was not listed on the exchange.  what is the reason you don't sell your token, don't you need money.  just sell it and make BTC better my friend.

I followed your first point and fucked up myself. Lol! Considering second option and waiting for alt increments.

Everyone need money, especially myself. But the thing is my mind is not letting them sold because of getting nothing as compared to what I invested. For example, 1 ETH = 5000 REQ was ICO price. Now just have a look at the current price. Even if I convert it to BTC, I will get no more than a few bucks. Instead, I wanted to bet on its increment during big bull run like if when XRP reaches to $1, I think these alts (strong ones) will further improve as well and I may find a good selling point.

[Cling18]

I'm holding some of the coins that you have listed but it's a good thing that I have sold most of it while it still has a value. Some altcoins aren't worth holding because they usually lose their value in the long run. I think the best thing that we can do is to sell some of it and just convert it with high potential coins which are really worth holding just like Bitcoin and Ethereum.

[Novatech8]

Most ICO projects from 2017 are dead and I doubt if anyone still holds them like you are doing presently, after the bull market of 2017 many ICO projects exit scam, some got abandoned, if any of these coins are still trading do not miss this bullrun season, let go of them and invest in better altcoins even if you don't get your actual invested amount back

[kayvie]

So, what have you done to them? If you haven't sold them, what is your plan with them?

My current holdings of tokens during that year is still in my wallet. The reason is that they don't have any exchange, it also means that they don't have any value, in short, useless tokens. I don't have any plans right now since there is no current use for them, I just set aside those altcoins and thinking like they are inside my wallet at all.

[WalkerIVIV]

The only best thing that you can do to sell them all when they are still worh some bucks. I have sold all of my coin from the bounties.
You can't sure if your coins will be going to the moon. You are still having bunch of coins in your wallet and then just check it. If there are some still worth a few bucks and sell them all.
Your coins will not bring you to be the next millionaire.

What could have done shouldn't be the point as it has passed. I was getting 15x on WABI. I had applied via 2 accounts. I sold half of them at $4 and never sold the rest of them. Greed played very well, maybe.

Ohh, man! I still remember WABI. They were allowing probably 1.2 or 1.5 ETH investment per account, remember? Well, I too had invested via a total of 3 accounts and I sold all of them at $3.13. It was the best investment of my life. I think greed played you this time. Don't you think the same?
