This is definitely some food for thought! Thank you guys for a very interesting and useful discussion and I think it's very true that we all need to keep a close guard on our identity documents because you never know where they will end up in the future.

Yeah it's better not panic sell if you can avoid it... if there is value in the asset then sometimes you will have to just wait a bit - of course you have to factor in opportunity cost but that is how it is with all investments. But a pump for ETH? probably will be in the future.

Hmm given the price movements in recent times, kind of forced to hold onto this coin and just hopefully NEO will be able to pull through all the regulatory uncertainty and establish itself as a major player in the China market and worldwide too.

The usage of Pay IDs instead of having to remember long account numbers is something that banks are already rolling out, it can be a feature that could set TWIST apart though in this space of the market, features can often be copied unfortunately so I hope that TWIST will find other things to distinguish itself from the competition .

Must say that price has been slow improving so that is always great to see .

Fast profit... that's hard to say. For example about 1 month ago if you bought into any of the major cryptocurrencies it would have all risen substantially around 50-80% and you would have made money easily if you had sold off. Now everything has deflated. So hard to predict.

While you may delegate or outsource the research and the footwork of finding cryptocurrency, the ultimate responsibility of executing on buying or selling something lies with you and that must always be remembered. Dumps always happen too... hard to predict.

Sometimes the transactions on exchanges can take a long time to show up... might just have to give it more time.

It is great to see events coming up on the calendar with regards to promoting TWIST, it's a good start. It's also good to see that progress is being made on the web wallet!

There are no masternodes available for this coin at this stage, it's all POS so get staking!

Sometimes we can get impatient and think the grass is greener on the other side... sometimes you will feel like jumping around different coins but hard to say if that'll work - if you could get in just before rises each time maybe... but dunno, seems rather risky.

Yeah the problem is that the exchanges are so expensive these days... but definitely the expansion to other exchanges would be good to get more exposure...
Yeah given there was no ICO not sure how much money is in the kitty for further expansion...
That being said Stocks Exchange seems to be working so far for providing the needed exchange to allow people to buy TWIST if they want...

It's hard to tell if in time this will be one of those markets where it is the time in the market that matters most rather than the timing of when you buy into the market... ideally everyone wants to buy when things are low priced... but the swings are so extreme you can't even time properly coming in with upswings... it really does move on a dime and the price goes up and down

Guess it is the web wallet that is next in the steps of the roadmap - that being said I do wonder to what utility this web wallet will be for?

Nothing wrong with being cheap! If you want to buy coins cheaper then the buyer has the right to that... Then again the seller has the right not to sell at the asking price either.
Perhaps people are waiting for more actions before deciding on putting money on the coin and investing into it.
If you got coin in the airdrop then it was for free anyways, can always stake with the coin while waiting for the price to improve.
Looking forward to seeing what TWIST will do next!

Don't think bear season is over... but then can't predict the market sometimes. The bears will go into hibernation at some point haha

Can't say that I have noticed about the number of nodes dropping in and out... the staking still seems to be the same as before, albeit less these days due to the sheer amount of TWIST available.

I do wonder about how else TWIST can promote the project - a lot of TWIST was given out in the beginning with the airdrop as it was... social media marketing campaigns are always good but even that can be a bit of a dud as the word about the coin doesn't necessarily reach everyone... maybe some interviews and those articles might be a way to go.

But if you wanted to look at TWIST would it be a coin that you stumble across? Outside of looking up TWIST coin guess the only other thing would be looking up coins with address that have custom IDs - not sure how many people would be searching for that specifically.

Some of the ICOs do have the situations where they are screening people by how much worth they are bringing to the table - still doesn't mean the ICO will actually by any good though.

Guess the rich do tend to keep on getting richer... but you know what, to hell with circumstances, create your opportunities.

Stocks Exchange... it has its moments, the slow deposit times is one of the major issues I personally had with it.

That being said hopefully the next exchange chosen will be smoother to use, however might be best not to use up too much money getting on exchanges - this only coin began as a pure airdrop, hard to say how much funds there are to allow for getting onto exchanges...

Regardless look forward to the tech that TWIST is bringing out!

You have to be careful with giving your details and passport and login credentials and things like that to other people... up to you though I suppose.

All the different forms of forums and chat media all have their pros and cons. At the end of the day it is all about trying to maximise TWIST's exposure to as many people in the community and if that means talking on BitcoinTalk and going on Discord etc then so be it!

This ANN definitely is important because it is often that first port of contact that decides what someone will do, whether they'll go further or just forget about the coin.

Please come check out TWIST!

Yeah some thing you need to buy, buy it. Get good quality ones.
Cut the waste.
Still have some fun in the fun money pot.
Make sure you have the buffers in place and have some left over cash.

Stopping buying unimportant things comes down to will power ultimately.

Passive income - you still have to put the work in the first place to get the income and then you still have to monitor your investments to get the income - there may be some true passive income where you don't have to do much but you still gotta monitor it etc.
