Now should buy BTC is safer for you, in my opinion should not invest in ICO now
I will support you here but partly. For a newbie, it is really better to invest in BTC than in an ICO. The experienced guy can find a very good project and make money on it.
At this point I think investing in BTC is very reasonable. If you can research the good ICO project then it is a good investment. Traxion is a rare project in the moment in the cryptocurrency market that can hit hardcap and I believe this project will boom very strongly.
