99% will lose everything in Crypto. Are you smarter than a 5 year old?

So you're suggesting to buy some coin/token while it's on ICO price? We all know that buying those "LOW MARKETCAP PROJECTS" is just nonsense. I only trust these coins/tokens: BTC , ETH , XRP , LTC , BCH .

True, now that kind of thing doesn't make sense anymore because the ICO project doesn't have a good enthusiast in crypto, so the risk is much bigger if someone buys it, so it's clear in this respect that trusting these coins / tokens: BTC, ETH, XRP , LTC, BCH are very sensible things.

I really think that the best course of action is not to buy at the ICO price but not also ignore them completely neither. I mean at the end of the day we are talking about crypto here and you do not know which one is legit and which one is scam so you shouldn't really think that all of them are bad suddenly and give it up.

I personally think that if you check each coin at the pre-sale prices you will find some that are good. I found some just this month for example and I invested to it few months ago but it came out on the uniswap this week and it worths a decent amount of money, unfortunately I invested just 10 bucks so I didn't made a good return, but having 3x return means if someone invested 1000 dollars they would have gotten 3000 dollars back in just one month because some coins are just good. I am not saying invest into all of them, just do not ignore them.

I get so mad at this. I made x50 on a lot of projects like Link, Verge, Aave(ETHLEND), Nano, and I know other crypto billionaires did the same way before me on BTC and ETH and even Doge.

But the reason we made these insane profits is we bought projects CHEAP. None of the crypto billionaires bought projects EXPENSIVE. Like Ripple, ETH, Link or Doge are now.

If you want to make $500k from $1000 you need to buy EARLY projects before they are big. And that is the beauty of crypto. Even the poor guy can make a fortune if he spots the rights projects while they are still cheap.

Like KoinOS which was made by the Steem DEVS (they had a hostile takeover by Justin Sun from TRX and were so mad they started Koinos). Koinos is still at only $0.03 a coin with a marketcap of around $3 million. Its CLEAR this will go to $50m or even more. So for every $1000 you put in you will get $50k$ back if it succeeds. I dont see how it cant succeed with having some of the best blockchain devs in their team.

Same for BANANO which is a fork of Nano. Nano(RAIBLOCKS) was distributed for free here on Bitcointalk back in the day. But now its expensive. However Bananao is still cheap at only ~ 2 Million Market cap also. Why would you buy NANO now??? I see people on reddit shill Nano to death but why? Because they got Nano for 1 cent? Well do you really think that will benefit you? How about buying Banano now for 1 cent ?

Why do people in crypto not get this? If you want to get rich with ETH it would need to go to $3mil for 1 eth. Or you will have needed to buy ETH for $0.25 as many did.

Buying ETH now for $1300? Lol Whats the point? Ok maybe it can go to $3000 and you gain about 150% but what about those who bought it for $0.25 gaining 10029292010% ? Dont you want the same? So look at KoinOS and Banano and other promising LOW MARKETCAP PROJECTS.

I clearly understand your trying to marketing some of the coin your holding apart from the BANANO coin forked from NANO what value it holds whats its Usecase . Aave ( Ethelend ) created wealth because its the biggest name in Defi platform holding more than 3 billion asset in platform . You can check in aave website . Also they made easy fro Defi lending

You have spoken your mind but when people remember what they have passed through in the hands of many scam projects or shitcoins they will prefer to stay or invest with good coins. It is quite true that some cheap tokens have the potential of giving high profits, at the same time, it is also true that a good number of them can easily exit scam or the team find reasons to abandon the project, hence the reason we have a higher number of dead coins and tokens in the market, hence the question of what happened to the investors that invested because they believed. Also, the reason why many people believe that most new or cheap projects are not worth it is because of their experiences where they dumped and never came up again, take a look at most dead projects you will understand better and also understand why Ethereum and so on are far better.

[FairUser]

The only thing I feel here is that you are often more interested in news that the facts about what the projects are about. Agree that news is bringing about a huge growth during this period, but with it there will be many unauthenticated sources and very dangerous if you are not able to notice this, surely You will definitely swing the top, you will lose money, and you will hardly be happy with this market.

[Festac]

It's all about learning lessons, those who are new to crypto will surely take some wrong step before they get things right, it happened to me in the past, I used over two years buying crap coins and 99% of these coins are dead, still I don't give up and today I finally know the difference, if you don't give up you will eventually get more knowledge

[muenze]

there is nothing wrong with trying to find a new project to get more profit than other popular altcoins, but keep in mind that if the project is very prone to fraud, keep in mind that the bigger the profit the greater the risk of loss.

Thats only partly true. Its not a casino. You can do a lot of research on small projects and spread your money.  Just I think most are not willing to take the risk or dont understand basic math. Even if you only invest 1% of your ETH into a small project. It can easily bring you more profit than all your ETH. Now if you are smart you put your money on several small projects

[tvplus006]

Every day, new coins appear on decentralized exchanges, the price of which is several dollars and each of which has all the chances to increase in price several times. I like to use Binance Smart Chain for buying new coins, which has a commission of a few cents, unlike the ethereum network. Thus, the commission cost will not exceed the cost of the purchased coins, and will allow you to buy a small number of new coins

[mindrust]

You are picturing the whole crypto space as a ponzi scheme.

If you don't see any value in ETH in particular, then you are completely right. It doesn't make sense to invest in it from an investors point of view while there are many others with a bigger potential.

But then what makes your shitcoin banano special? Nothing. (other than being dirt cheap)

[Sanitough]

That figure (99% dumb money) are an insult to investors, what do you think of us, we don't understand what we are doing?

Let's say if we have 1 million users of crypto, so you are saying that 10k only are smart money or smart investors? I think that is too unrealistic.

We maybe make mistakes and I can call it a normal thing but some of us will certainly learn from their mistakes and will recover that loses eventually.
Investing is not only one time, you can do it more often if you feel consistent already.

[muenze]

That figure (99% dumb money) are an insult to investors

Honesty and being unbiased can never be an insult to a serious investors.

You know what happens in a crash? 99% of people lose. See Corona in 2020 only ones who got richer
are the 0,1% the wealthy. Its because the MASS never makes rational decisions.

So what people on Bitcointalk often do is have a poor people mentality. They dont trust their own
opinion and they dont put the effort to find LOW MARKET CAP HIGH QUALITY PROJECTS

Like maybe KoinOS. Did you watch the videos of the devs or read their whitepaper?

Most people just run with the lemmings and jump from the cliff into ETH which already
proof it can crash by 95% and more making 99% of people lose all their money this cycle
never ends and only the rich get richer.

Crypto was created so the poor people have the power. But you give up your power if you
go in expensive projects with the mass. You want to SELL your cheap coins once the mass
is in it.

Its 100% obvious and objective, the only crypto millionaires are those who saw chances
and opportunity EARLY.

[isaac_clarke22]

Well you can't blame people from what you asked, some have the lazy mindset of "meh it will have price correction, better invest later than now."
I had read a thread in here before wherein they said that "First best time to invest was 10 years ago and second time is now". Quite the enthusiasm
actually.
I hope that many people still have that kind of mindset these days.

Even if you only invest 1% of your ETH into a small project. It can easily bring you more profit than all your ETH. Now if you are smart you put your money on several small projects

Even then, if the small project can be maximally successful, if it is not successful, then it is tantamount to throwing ETH into a useless place, in fact the investment is not a small matter or the size of a project, but rather the potential success of a project itself, so that all people can trick their money into any project as long as it's good.

simply crypto investing for people who are new to crypto is a gambling game. we just predict and the future market answers. different for people who are already professionals in the crypto market either trading or investing. although they do not rule out the possibility of getting a loss, what they have done is to minimize the risk and increase the potential profit.
new projects or old projects that are already on the market from my point of view have risks and potentials. it all depends on how we process everything so that it becomes an advantage.

[qwertyup23]

Some people just like to make more money over time than their savings would make in crappy fiat banks. You mentioned a 150% return on ETH as a possibility, which probably will happen this year or certainly within the next few years. Where else can you get a 150% return in traditional fiat investments? You certainly won’t get it from an average mainstream banking savings account, especially now.

Throwing money in to new alts is risky. I’m 100% bitcoin any way but i understand why people buy ETH etc.

I highly agree with your statement.

Some altcoins, like ETH, XRP, etc. can be considered as a "safe investment" since they have proven itself on the market every bull run. In the case of new altcoins, however, they are definitely risky. While it may seem appealing to invest into new altcoins especially if they offer very promising returns or ideologies, they are still risky as anyone can just run away with the invested capital.

Bitcoin will still be the reigning cryptocurrency even to the years to come. Purchase and HODL it for long-term for maximum profit at the end of the day.

[Sled]

Smart and wise people will never go along with the hypes but wait when the market dumps, and invest. Those who buy crypto during the bullish a big chance to lose. 2017 bullish season serves as an example where many jumpers, beginners are into Bitcoin investment because they think that it continues to pump high but what happens after reaching $20k gives a surprising end.

Can't people think that way? Or they are just a perma bull that can't even think about dumping.

Please do as well as you want and what you believe in. But you can't force and even change people's perspective to do what you do. If you have your own way of making a profit of up to thousands of percent on the altcoin you believe have potential, then you just have to wait for the right time to make a withdrawal and enjoy your profit.

There is nothing wrong with trading and investing in altcoin that are proven to provide returns in the short and long term like ethereum and other well-known altcoin. Did you forget that these people could still sell their altcoin if the price dropped and would take a bit of a loss by cutting the losses ?
All major altcoin today have large user communities, which will give them the strength to last longer in the market even when the price dump rapidly. The price will recover and you cant blame this fluctuation. Do what you want and let these people determine how they will profit. Their money is their responsibility.

[Kvalentine]

It's all about satisfaction mate, I can be contented with 1% gain and you may not be contented with that, you can't tell what people should be satisfied with or not, Ethereum is a big altcoin that I can still make 20% gains from, it's my choice not yours, though it's always smart to buy coins when they are cheap but now you can't stop people from buying even when price keeps surging

[ethereumhunter]

Maybe @OP needs to visit Binance and see the order buy and sell for every coin, so he can see that many traders are trying to profit from all of that coins. Besides trading, that trader is also investing in many projects, even in the new projects, but they will always research to know which project can make them profit in the future. Nowadays, it will not be easy to identify the real new project because almost all projects have the same idea, and many of them are fake and want to scam the investors. So if I were you, I would not use my money to invest in an unknown project, and I will invest in a project that already has a market. Even if I invest in the new project, I will not use too big money because that will too risky for me.

[Sourhearrt]

It's all about knowing the right time to get in to buy coins and knowing the right time to sell for profit, just keep repeating the process and you will see yourself in big return of investment, there are times to buy and time to sell, right now it's definitely time to relax and start taking profits instead of investing, anyways people just love taking risks and no one can change that

[oprahwindfury]

there are additionally a great deal of coins here that has been around for quite a long time that are not acquiring consideration from financial backers, these activities have a steady local area with exceptional highlights projects like Idena and Banano merits a spot in the top situation on the lookout and in the event that you are searching for acceptable tasks these two merits our consideration.

[terible.hunter]

I don't think your statistics are correct. I agree that many people do spend a lot of funds in cryptocurrencies because this asset is very risky. But that's not 99%. Now is a very good time to make money.
