Now market comes out from bears hands and stabilizing here to start a new run up and it will start anytime. It is not surprising if we see a big shoot up in ethereum price as it dropped too much in this bear market.

Crypto currency is the future of money. All this is well understood and therefore participate in this. We are all waiting for when our investments multiply. Everyone is waiting for the same thing.

You should do good research of the project, try to find one with good working product and low market cap. It can take some time but if you thinl on investing long term that may be a strategy for you.

Reading a lot helps doing right choices.

If you consider invsting short term, than take a close look at top ten coins, with bullish market than bring some profit.

Good luck

Of course you can leave, but you need to choose a good exchange, of course, for example on polonies or ku coin, you can safely keep and are not afraid

It will still end sometime, but no one will say the exact date. The market will not drop to zero. They will simply eradicate unreliable users, lower the price to a minimum, and then mass procurement will begin again.

I would never recommend to anyone that they put all of their investment into just 1 coin, the risk associated with this is far too great. That isn't to see that it cannot be a strategy that works just that it is a single point of failure. I would pick 4 or 5 projects to invest with that way if one of them turns out to be a scam or fails for any other reason I still have the others to rely on in an attempt to cover and make a profit.

Well of course you have to be extremely selective, otherwise your starting capital would vanish rapidly. Last year it was enough to do some research on the team of the project and their token metrics, their idea etc. and you could make nice returns, but this year a lot depends also on the demand for the project, the previous mentioned factors are not enough.

I know your feelings ,I have been in similar situations several times,but there's nothing we can do about it, this is crypto and no one can give you 100 % guarantee in investment in ICO or rewards in bounties, so everything at your own risk.

Basically the creation of altcoins includes eth to compete with other coins including btc, but eth crying is indeed the best btc competitor, because now there are many new crypto projects that use eth's platform, and that is one factor why eth can be called the best altcoin.

I feel keeping our coins in exchanges, mininize the risk of loosing our coins to wallet hackers.

If I decline, I don't think it will decrease, but it is more likely for investors to be more selective in choosing an ICO, now many ico have sprung up and not all have good prospects, surely investors must be good at choosing ico who has good prospects and potential

You must be patient to achieve your goal
The story is not the timing but the goal you set for yourself
The market now needs patience and wisdom in dealing.

To see bitcoin on 1 million dollar or Ethereum to 10000 dollar, we must all understand that it takes mass adoption to get on that point.
And mass adoption begins from home, so how do you educate your friends and family about crypto?

Do share so we can all learn from each other's method   

That is something we can only guess. Personaly am a fan of ICOs, and believe the importance of their existence. Also like bounties, which will not dissappear, as long as there will be ICOs IMO

You don't have to have thousands of dollars to invest. everyone invests according to their means. For some people there can be very little money for 1000 dollars, some people may even be a nice target

Indeed a noble act of kindness to share with less fortunate people especially in those remote areas wherein poverty is more evident.Continue your noble act for you will be rewarded in the end though I know it would never be easy because you have to educate them about crypto and of course provide them internet to do so.
