I was reading the figures around venture capital in the blockchain start-up world and was surprised to see how many projects were using VC rather than an ICO

I know that a VC can provide guidance and advice, but it seems to me that an ICO can bring significantly more money for no equity, money that can be used to buy guidance and advice

Why then do people continue to use VC?

Thoughts?

Hi,

I'm looking to use the power of the community by asking for 3 interesting pre-ico projects to help me with an article I am writing

Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks

Personally I have gone for a mixed bag to include:
- Ethereum
- Waves
- Shift
- Ardor
- Radium

I'm interested to know about any previous x1000 coins

Coins where it was fully possible to get in at the start and achieve this rate

Other than BTC of course

With the upcoming ICO on 7th Sep what are people's thoughts?

I've heard a lot of negativity about Swarm 1.0, are people more confident about the update?

I very much like the look of this concept.

Is it possible to get more information on how PWC were involved?

What is the premise behind the project? What are their USP?

And what are the risks associated with leasing? Can you lose your coins or are they just tied up for a certain period of time?

I've seen lot's of hype of the past few months about waves but it has been trending downwards in terms of price. I still think I want to buy but:

1. Is now a good time or should I wait for the price to keep dropping?
2.  How do i go about purchasing waves? which exchanges is it listed on?

Agreed, the price can only crash once the full market is enabled. Too many BTC owners have their coins in a position where they can't sell, not to mention all the exchanges that have just stolen coins off their users

Where is everyone looking for the BCH price, there seems to be such big discrepancies between CoinMarketCap and Kraken to name but two

And what would be the best option for generating and storing private keys?

I am now at Member status, please can I upgrade status if available?

 I have read a lot about storing in bitcoin in cold storage in case of a fork

What would be the impact of keeping bitcoin in exchange accounts e.g. coinbase?

I shall be holding and waiting for August to decide whether to purchase more BTC or even a range of altcoins. I feel risk in either selling or buying now so inaction actually seems best

Africa is seeing great progress through mobile phone banking and easy to create accounts, the monetary system, be it centralized or decentralized is the way out of poverty.

The key for bitcoins in Africa is easy of use, if it can be taken up through texting etc. then there is a very bright future

Not in the slightest, firstly you have to have money to make money. How can you get rich in bitcoin without (a) lots of hard work or (b) lots of money to use in trading?

Do you not think that anyone cashing out to take advantage of high prices already would have done?

I can see the price crashing, but only off the back of a big worry e.g. the fork
