Additionally, to be objective, investing strategy should *probably* change with regards to some of these coins.
During the correction, Sub dropped by almost 40% from its ATH, while coins like SHIFT dropped 20%. It's clear which coins are based on hype and weak hands (which is fine - weak hands are also investors) who want to make a quick buck but get disillusioned quickly.
However, Sub also went up a lot because of the weak hands.
Therefore, Sub can actually be most profitable to those who know how to play/time the market - ride up a massive wave, and then sell at the top when things get unsustainable.
Just my 146 satoshis..
but where is the working product of SHIFT? cant find it. how many websites are hosted on SHIFT?
Umm... how about the Shift website itself..? See, that's the point. Blind money, all hype, and you don't know about alternatives.
That's OK though.. I have to accept that the market is changing. People who chase the hype and shiny polished websites and marketing ads may get better returns now...
EDIT: And this is not an "if". Cardano, TRX, XRP (never been used by a bank, despite all the "partnerships") are examples of the "new wave" of coins, it seems.
They have undoubtedly been very successful without any products. So I accept that Sub can get up there with them as well (with a little luck as well).
So i can download the SHIFT program to host websites? i cant find it on the site. id like to test it.
You can currently upload only static websites to Shift testnet Phanthom.They will soon introduce dynamic support (dynamic website is for example this forum).
You don't need to download any program to host the website.Register and login to Shift testnet wallet
https://wallet.testnet.shiftnrg.org/ and try it out (Applications--> Phantom).Also, new Shifts website is hosted on the Phantom and it's amazing fast!

+ They expanded their team (dev and marketing) and Isabella from Lisk joined the team and that's a big deal!
I will stay away from SUB as it's pure hype,there is zero code, December 2017 deadline for beta wasn't meet and the founders have a criminal history..
I mean, I have to admit that hype isn't necessarily bad anymore for money-making, but THANK YOU for seeing my point about it being ONLY hype.
These people have taken millions and millions of dollars (unnecessary amount of money) from an ICO, and can't even get their basic stuff together. Just marketing and promises.
Again, it MAY VERY WELL WORK AND BE SUCCESSFUL. But compare it to the SHIFT team - they had no money, no ICO, started out with nothing but a group of hard-working devs who created something good and working.
Also, I'd like you to explain - how do the Substratum founders have a criminal record? I didn't know about that.
