Re: [PRE-ANN] WAVES. Ultimate crypto-tokens blockchain platform.

OK. Noob to ICOs here. I already love my WAVES and have grown attached to them. Lol

What I would like to do, is hang onto them after the ICO launches. I assume we would be able to start trading them on a REPUTABLE exchange when the time comes.

Sooooo, my question is this: will WAVES appreciate in value as I hang on to them? Or is it all a gamble on whether the price will go down or up?

I know nobody can predict the future, but what happened with previous ICOs with the same magnitude and popularity as WAVES?

I will settle for educated guesses

I guess that you already know the answers to your questions mate Wink

Everyone is hoping for a price appreciation, but who knows? it is likely that many will at least sell a portion of their holdings at launch and continue to hold a bit for the future. Once the Waves team launches the Waves platform, they have the possibility to access funds and start working on building and developing for DAOs for Waves or bring new features to the platform etc. Things are looking good and everyone has high hopes for what Waves will bring the coming months. Of course it's all a gamble, and the project could crash tomorrow and everything comes burning down. With that said, many have invested predicting a nice ROI and so far it's looking promising.

OK, great, thanks for the detailed answer. I guess it is like any other high risk/high reward investment

Holding thumbs for us all!!

Never get attached to any cryptocurrency.

There's a lot of money flowing into ICOs right now. No one knows if that will be good or bad for the price of waves AFTER the ICO. With so many people investing in waves, there may be high expectations of an increase in price once trading starts on open markets, and if the prices don't skyrocket at launch, investors might decide to dump so they can pump the next big thing. Tai Zen has some good videos on the hows and whys of investing in the waves platform: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=phzzDIdJeDM

Thanks for the response! Now hitting up those vids..

you can't really tell but from experience (and according to tai zen who I really appreciate) ICOs always bring some sort of ROI. Might be higher might be lower. Can't really think of any ICO in recent history that ended up with a loss on launch day.

Exactly! Very wise words and a secret in crypto.

The idea with ICOs is to get into the coin early. Safest thing is to invest a little here and there (obviously). A little Lisk, a little Waves, some Rise. Never put in any more than you can lose. And falling in love with a coin will get you squashed. Tongue
