I have a great experience in trading and I always try to find the easiest and the fastest way to trade. For such cases I use trading bots like FUMGO.com

I would invest 40% in BTC, 40% in ETH and the rest 20% I'd leave for new and perspective altcoins

I don't know how long this bullish trend will stay but finally we got at least a piece of what we wanted for. And I agree with those who say "better slow and steady than fast pump and subsequentual dump"

Yeah, agree that it's not a full list of platforms for traders. Get at least FUMGO https://fumgo.com (hope you know it). It's just perfect alternative to older platforms with complex interfaces and time consuming tries to get your money.

A few years ago we could say that the majority of that ICO would be successful, they had great potential and were suggesting quite nice ideas. However, nobody knew that cryptocurrencies will drop down so fast. The current situation is a bit different, we have another market situation right now in which you should stubbornly analyze your investments and think twice before providing your funds to somebody.

For sure, a good project should provide the ability for their investors to buy/sell the token somehow. Yes, some tokens you've been bought during ICO but how the project should extend their auditory without the ability to buy the token? So listing is an important step for any project.

No one can precisely tell us "when"!

In my own opinion, this will not go beyond 8k anymore in short-term. The market is now exhausted and got injured during the crash (some would say a hardcore correction) that continues since end December. So, I would lower my expectation from the market for now. The recovery process takes months or years until the market gets the investors’ trust back. Honestly, I do not believe that the market will recover in short term and I consider every spike we have now as temporary.

My stradegy is very simple. I wait patiently until price goes to an extreme. Use money for trading, which i am ready to loss. Buy when price rises or sell when price falls. Wait patiently for price to fall further than I could ever imagine. When it falls further than I would ever have thought possible I buy a small position and hold it until it rises into a big profit.  Yes, it is not daily trading, but it is trading. Also want to notice, that before buying smth, I am doing my own research about the situation around this currency.

I am completely agree with the author. There is nothing to worry about, if you want to take part in trading you should be ready for losses. Because It is normal to win and loss. The main difference between successfull traders and pickers is the amount wins vs losses. That is a simple as that. Good luck everybody! 

M8, it is lack of experience and your attention. That's all. If you want to be really successful trader, you should not only buy and sell, but also doing your own research: how the market rises and falls, how to buy cheaper and sell more expensive, how to use various types of orders, how to operate on various exchanges. Only in this case you will bu sure in your investment, and woun't do stupid mistakes. Trading is a job and you should pay a lot attention for it.

Government will Ban cryptocurrency because transactions via cryptocurrency are very difficult to trace out and it can be easily used for illegal trade (such as drugs, arms etc.) and payments. So you can buy tokens and follow up the situation, in case if the government start to prohibit, you will be able to sell tokens quickly with minimal losses.

I would recommend to take this money and invest it in lerning how to be successfull in trading. In this case you can not only make profit, but also gain a new way to make profit on the constant basis.

I think it is the ICO V2.0 A Security Token is very similar to normal securities traded such as stock shares, derivates and bonds. In this case the security is simply represented in a digital form.

Security Token Offerings already comply with securities law and offer additional benefits. The tokens offer greater liquidity, traceability, accessibility and are decentralized.

In essence, it is an attack in which if someone is able to control >50% of the computing resources in the entire bitcoin network, that person would be able to single-handedly make decisions for things in the bitcoin network that require majority consensus to happen, such as deciding which transactions go onto the blockchain, etc. This person can’t do everything, but still, it would break down certain assumptions that bitcoin was based on.

With ICOs, you, most likely, invest in a non-existing product on a non-existing blockchain that is about to wow everybody in the near future.

With STOs, you put your money in an existing product that had been tokenized and legalized before.

It is a simple as that!

Ripple still has some growing room left, but meteoric rises like those seen at the end of 2017 will naturally be few and far between, and it’s safe to assume that the price changes will settle into more sustainable ranges. This is especially likely for a coin like Ripple which can benefit from price stability. With its large supply, and currently limited use, investors will want to be wary of readjustments following price rises. This is especially true for a coin like Ripple that benefits from stable pricing, and is designed more for corporate use than individual use. So I think XRP will be a good investment.

Regulating the ICO market means that businesses would become legally obligated to deliver on the mission and business plan they set out during the ICO. So, there would be less incentive to change plans and take greater risks, providing assurance for investors.  In the case of hacked ICOs, investors would also be able to claim some of their money back under a regulated scheme, similar to IPOs. These assurances are likely to attract more investors with greater capital holdings, potentially helping ICOs raise even greater funds far quicker. In my opinion, Regulation of ICO will have positive influence on the ICO.

A lot of people here suggest invest it, but only in the case if you are ready to lose your money because you should acknowledge that this is a very risky realm. Moreover, if you are interested in trading, 5k$ will be a good start for earning new experience and maybe money in the near future . But, please please please use RISK management, it is very important. Be smart trader. Good luck, mate!!!

In my opinion now really a good time to invest in crypto. If you want to be successful you should be risky. Sure, in this realm investor must check every detail very carefully, because there are a lot of scam projects. As for me if BTC price reaches 2k$, it will be a sign for me to buy and wait. 

 Nobody knows what will be with ETH with the price, with the development. As for me I wait for the hardfork  and  bull trend. Because there is no doubts, that the project should create and develop new features, but if there is no hype in crypto industry the growth will be very slow. But if bull trend + great hype  will come, ETH price will raise immediately.
