Altcoin presales

(please move this question if needed)

Hi All,

I'm new to the altcoin world and I've been able to acquire some of the various popular altcoins. I'm a little bit up the learning curve. I've recently become aware that Ethereum had a presale and also Gems had a presale. Is there a place that lists all the upcoming presales involving bitcoin and altcoints and related? Thanks,

Advait

You can move it yourself (button in the bottom left corner)

I'm not aware of any such place. Interesting pre-sales (non-scam coins) are very rare. Just follow the news (CoinDesk etc). If there's anything worthwhile on the horizon it will get some coverage.

Generally all you have to do is follow the Announcements section here. Almost all pre-sales/launches of any importance will be listed there.

OK, thanks, I'll follow those links.

Looks like Koinify in a good place for looking at pre-sales also.

presales work like this:

1st) hype it up
2nd) premine 100% at the press of a button
3rd) sell it to the fools and newbs
4th) buy into your own presale so you can have the largest marketshare and as many free coins as you like as you will also get the BTC from your own presale back
5th) hype it even more to get best price to sell before abandoning it. In case you missed out on step 4 just go ahead and abandon the project right after launch

that's how presales work - good luck with making money on that, haha

I translate for you: presale means you hand over your money for tokens which have been effortlessly (and centrally) produced (and distributed) on the press of a button and your decision to throw your hard earned money at that happens based solely on promises. Also you trust the dev(team) to not buy his own presale.
You're clearly in for a rude awakening.

That's easy. Buy the ones that will go up in value.

presale and IPO or whatever you call carry a lot of risk! The announcement or projects always look promising or ambitious. The scammers won't tell you they will scam you! Just invest what you can afford to lose!

Hello waaat?, Thanks for the reply. For a n00b like me its actually good to be reminded to be careful. From what little I know there are different kind of presales: Those that are scams and those (much fewer) that are legitimate. For example, from what little I know, it seems that presales like the ones from Ethereum and Gems were legitimate with some chance of a reasonable return. It seems that Koinify is listing legitimate presale events.

So would you say the Ethereum and Gems presales were scams? Or legitimate? Is Koinify a scam? I'm new to the whole world of crypto currency so your thoughts on this will be helpful for me.

If anyone else would like to weigh in on this that would be appreciated. I want to learn from more experienced people.

In general, I'm only using "play money" to acquire various crypto currencies. Play money means only a small amount that I don't care if I lose it all. And I'm happy to take that small risk for a small chance of a big payoff. No payoff without risk.

Thanks, Kind Regards,

so maybe then some not IPO altcoins to buy? i read that you can somehow buy paycoin for 1$ and then buy with it for 20$ but don't quite understand how it works. i put my email but got no invite to the shop.
