What if the market does not get better during may and june 15 ? Still go on with the ico or postpone to another date ?
Delays are bad for investor confidence imho
At the current state everything is bad for investors. People are still afraid and I am not sure if they would get more if they would have sticked to the plan.
Investors that are new to altcoin is surely afraid to invest since bitcoin went down more than they expected, but with the up and down trend professional trader is making big bucks our of it, timing and good presentation is a must in ICO.
Yeah, but I'm also thinking on behalf of the project, not the (professional) trader
You have correctly noticed that professionals make money on the UPS and downs of the courses and not invest in projects.
But I don't think traders made as much as someone simply holding crypto from early 2017. Not saying this works in the long run!
They make a ton, if they know how to trade, holding does not make you more money, traders will sell and buy a deep, so they will get even more, so is a matter of good decisions, you are more passive, you just buy, and hold, and don't take advantage of the ups and down, cryptoflix and most ICOs, if not all, are being damaged by the bear market of BTC, and until the bullish start again, this will remain the same.
I understand the basics. And for stocks this is almost always the case. But by holding ETH for example you would have made x100 in one year. If you made that by daytrading (profits minus losses) you're exceptional
