The market is full of ICOs and because of that it makes it very difficult to discern and find which are good ones.

But what do we mean with “good” ones?

It’s not a simple question if they are scams or not!

Some may start with good intentions to deliver a product, but delivering a product is one thing, being useful is another thing. Also do they utilise their token, and if so how and to what extent?

So how I define a good ICO? By simply answering the following questions which i consider very important ones as crypto project is a form of business.

Doing my research I found a project that answers in reasonable extent my questions and I find out that can also help the whole community. Please check the results of my research and feel free to express your thoughts if you agree or disagree with me.


1. Q: How it utilizes blockchain technology?
   A: DIW utilizes blockchain technology by using ready made technologies on blockchain, this saves a ton of developers time and money, also its entangles the ICO community together as one. It develops new security protocols that can be utilized and trusted only by the blockchain network and not centralised servers.

2. Q: What problem/s does it solve?
   A: How many times do people get scammed in digital world and real life?
   i.e.
An individual or a company is pretending that is selling some quality tyres, you choose what you want, you pay and you end up receiving nothing.
How many times has someone pretended to be someone and is someone else?
How safe is it to save on a centralised server or on your computer sensitive data such as: Passwords, Login Credentials ,Visa Card Numbers, Cryptocurrency Wallet Seeds?
All those are serious problems that people are facing on a daily basis.
DIW solves such issues with the following:
* Identity verification, which offer scammer protection
* No double/fake accounts
* The Seller identity is real (verified KYS)
* The Buyer is real (verified with KYC).
*Payment is secured for buyers and sellers from DIW Escrow service.
*Sellers have personal ratings in DIWs Global hub that ensures the quality of their services.
*Ensures ultimate security for very important and sensitive data storage, transfer and sharing.

7. Q: Can the team deliver such a product?
   A: From my research the project has a highly motivated and transparent team with a very strong background and a solid rock idea that has utilized in such beautiful way the blockchain technology.

Conclusion:

So what was so interesting in that project that was worth my time and research?

First I will explain in very simple words how do I envision their payment procedure that they offer.
It’s like I’m buying tyres in a nearby shop in my city. It’s like a face to face transaction. You know that the shop and the owner exist for real because they are verified in the DIW platform.
You know that they selling tyres (KYS). The supplier knows that you want to buy for real, this is why you visited his shop (KYC).
You heard from other people in your neighborhood that this shop has good quality tyres this is why you went to that shop in the first place (DIW Global Rating System) .
You pay and you receive the product (DIW Escrow Service).

Are the same procedures with real life interaction but now in a digital more secure and luxury form..

Also in terms of security for sensitive data they offer a double layer of security which include software and hardware protection.

All real life interactions utilized in a secure digital form using blockchain technology.

it will most likely be the largest ICO

Airdrop is good idea to attract new people.
Unfortunately, I don't get airdrop because need find good project.. Have not time for it.
Do you know good airdrop?

There are virtually hundreds of altcoins you can trade or invest long.

but How can I find a good altcoin？

I realize no one knows when the drop will level off. Im wondering though since i just bought a bunch more yesterday and lost a bunch more by today (lol never spend more than you can afford to lose) when do you foresee this leveling off and time to buy other currencies? Or how would you judge when the right time to buy is besides checking the mkt hourly and driving your self nuts? Id buy more today if i see a shift towards a leveling off however when i see 10-40% drops daily id like to mitigate losing hundreds of dollars per coin in a day when I buy more of them to hold onto.

Andrew Haldane said one solution would be for the Bank of England to issue a state-backed digital currency based on bitcoin. Supporting this initiative would be a negative interest rate levied on paper currency relative to the digital currency, with these measures do you think there is more possibilities that sometime:

Paper money will be banned entirely?
How long do you think that happens?
would it work?
What security and privacy risks would it raise?
And how would public and privately issued monies interact?

It's simple, when they pull the plug, this will be one of the most catastrophic and devestating Ponzi schemes the world has ever seen

Wall street grows ever more certain Bitcoin is a bubble. I can't even say they're wrong. Flirting with $6000 per coin and low economic utility? For as dumb as Jamie Dimon sounds every time he says anything about Bitcoin, the tulip bubble analogy looks less and less inappropriate all the time.


Blockchain utility doesn't make crypto not a bubble. That'll be important to remember for people buying now expecting to make big gains at this cost basis, and there's real risk there.

Yes, got you intrigued, didn't it?

Bitcoin is a very good thing to have as an asset. Just like gold. Even better if I may say. It's secure, and unlike fiat money it actually exists and work is put into it to produce it. This makes it great to store value.
However, it cannot and will not replace current fiat money that the entire world it using. It just cannot.
Take paying a cup of coffee for example. To pay your coffee with bitcoins, one must get bitcoins first, either by mining or buying bitcoins with other kinds of money (*cough*fiat*cough). It ends up being a quite complicated process, don't you think?
Until we reach the point where paying for a cup of coffee is as easy with Bitcoin as it is with cash, we will never get mass adoption. And as far as I see it, there is no way of simplifying the acquiring of bitcoins.

Bitcoin is growing fast and everyday a lot of people takes interest in this. I too started the other day and I am very willing to invest my time here. With that said, with the drastic growth of bitcoin worldwide, how do you see the bitcoin economy 10 years from now? Thank you as always.

If you be given a gift of 1BTC by someone and for you this amount is already something you did not expect. Will you sell your bitcoin right away and convert it into cash or just keep it for a better price to come or invest it or what?

Savings in banks Deposits in banks Property investments, such as buying property (land and buildings) are then leased or resold after some time later. Gold investment, such as buying gold and then stored for the long term. May be useful in the long run. and produce a decent and satisfactory. or farming to buy sawan and gardening and planting fruits and vegetables is a very good investment. Although a little vulnerable to failure but it could not hurt to try.

We are entering in the new type of economy where price predictions are not possible any more because productivity and prosperity of humanity will rise to the new golden age level. Bitcoin will go to 1 million dollars in 2018 and is being used by central banks as a global stardard ledger - dollar will fade slowly those who buy now will become the new wealthy elite.

Should I stop buying BTC for above market value or should I start paying the listed price? I support Bitcoin and still pay 5k a BTC does anyone see bitcoin going back up?

If bitcoin to be international currency, what do you think?
You can use it every where and anywhere, without exchange it.
And how to use transaction with it, if bitcoin just crypto currency?
How many people like with this thread?

Is buying BTC currently a good idea, or should I be going with ethereum?
Pls suggest...

Im currently invested heavily into bitcoin, waves, and shift.

what are 3 good altcoins to look into that will see great return within the next 3-6 months.
