As the title pronounced which do you prefer Invest or create? For me the capability of creating new coin can make big income and big loss there is a certain period of time that this idea will fail, as for Investing in some ICO compare to other side you have a freedom to choose, we all heard, don't put all your eggs in one basket but what if *if* half of the dozen egg broke and the other four was on fatal condition and the last two was successful and these two coin made you around 10m usd and your capital was 11m usd all of effort and time come to waste you see it's really hard to choose between two, how bout you share your opinions and express yourselves into this topic.
I'm not into creating coins. It has more responsibility instead of just creating for the heck of it. You will lose if you just created shitcoins with no value whatsoever.
As for investing, if more than half of your investment is in jeopardy then make the necessary adjustments and offload useless coins and go try to invest on the next hype coin, get out before the hype die, rinse and repeat.
From even what the guy posted, it is obvious that the main reason why he is looking at creating coin is because of the benefit when it comes to profitability. It is of course not a bad idea to think of that, but what should be important is to be able to come up with a product that would be speaking for itself without even having to say much to investors even though you still have to do that anyway and that is the only time he won't end up wasting his time trying to do something huge. Investing on the other hand is actually for every smart individual who is looking to key into someone else's idea while believing in its long term.
