Ethereum and Ripple are the only coin I was focused on. I also hold multiple coins for diversity but majority of my money were invested on those two (especially on Ethereum). I ignore other alternate coins as they are more likely to go down than up. The market is really at its worst and we should just rely on those coin who has proven themselves.

Every trader knows diversification is important. Hodling just one coin is a formula to money loss. Hodling multiple coins gives you the ability to be flexible on when to sell and also gives you multiple chances of earning. There are thousands of listed coins and only a few of them will pump up. If you have diversificatoin, you will increase the chances of having a coin that will pump.

I am thinking how will an ICO be protected with dumps. When a coin got distributed, the coin holder has every right to sell the coin. I think we should just accept how the market goes. The only way we can help is to keep holding and stop selling at the low price, that will be enough and we should accept what the market has to offer.

It will still be the top 3 coins. Bitcoin, Ethereum and Ripple will be the top and still the best coin to hodl especially on the long run. Since the price is incredibly low as well, short term trade is also advisable. The market is about to recover and we need to make that we will be part of it. Don't delay your investment and buy your coins now instead of later.

I won't think that this is a bull run. If you check the exchange, the volume is really not that high and the circulation is not that high as well. If you remember the last bull run, you will know how it is on the exchanges. That is were I base if its a bull run already or a slight increase. Let's be glad that bitcoin is recovering and hope that it will not go down the same way as Ethereum.

YES. We should regulate ICO's. Maybe this will be the answer for those people who were using ICO to scam. There should also be a requirement to show the identity of those people who were planning to sell ICO so that when they plan to do something terrible, we can just file a lawsuit against them. If people are not getting caught doing something that is unacceptable, other people will think that is right and they will do it on their own.

I agree. If you plan to buy a coin at the lower ranking, you should plan ahead and it much better if you aim for short term holding than having a long term plan on something that can die instantly. I also believe that if there is a high activity on the exchange, it means that the coin is less likely to die but doesn't guarantee that the price won't drop. A

I don't think exchanges are allowed to provide false figures. However, if this is true, then a lot of people were being fooled and were being forced to sell their coin at a very low price. I sell my coin based on the trade volume and its definitely affecting how I decide if a coin is for hodling or not.

It will never happen. Cryptocurreny will be here to exist until there are traders on the on exchange. The government doesn't have that much authority on banning privacy coins especially if the coin provide a lot of advantages or usage. The only time that the government can intervene is when crypto is not following the law or affecting the money circulation.

To be honest, I am not happy with the stakes payment method because the only basis is the tenure of an account to this forum. It is impossible to rank up from member to full member and I believe that you will be investigated and possibly banned if every you rank up. This is just my opinion based on the post and telegram messages from those who ranked up.

Agree with all of the things mentioned above. Always take advantage of what the market has to offer and never be greedy. Aiming for more profit will make you lose more. It clearly shows that hodling is not the best thing to do this year and yet you still settle to hold. We should learn from our past trading experience.

I think we will be introduced with less crypto in the future. As we all know, there are thousands of coins already and the service they offered is redundant. I think its much better to focus on the coin that we already have and there should be no coin that offers the same service. New coin will only be introduced when there is a ENTIRELY NEW service offered, not revised.

My plan is to sell half of my coins when the price recovery starts. I need to recover from my losses and I can't hodl my coin for that long. As much as possible, I don't want to sell at a low price but my capital doesn't permit it. I'll hodl my remaining coins in prep for the next bull run. Its hard to have a capital that is coming from debt, you will be forced to sell even if you don't want to.

Thank you for the encouraging words. I know a lot of people felt the same way on crypto and about to give up. However, we should not settle for that decision because of the fact that the crypto can still recover even if the price is super low. We should take this opportunity and buy some coin. In that way, we can sell it later and recover what we have lost little by little.

Same thing as what happened last January,  fat investors are in control of the next bull run. If all of them decided to invest at the same time, there will be a bull run. Also, we need new investors to cover up for those people who already given up on crypto currency. Maybe thing will be a lot better if those scam ICO's stops. They are the reason we are losing investors.

Yes. I think they have a future. ERC-20 is clearly in the slumps and they can take the bright spot if they got aggressive on improving their services. More platforms will rise as the main platform falls. Also, NEO is one of the underrated cheap coins that we could have. I actually hodl some and waiting for the pump (if it happens).

When I first saw the current price, I was shocked and I thought that crypto is done. However, I would never sell a coin below the price I bought it so I just HODL until to goes back up again. I also increased the number of coins I hodl to cover for my losses and sell it when there is a slight increase. There are coins that were good for buying especially those unpopular ones. The risk is much higher but you can earn a lot if you got lucky.

NO. They will never replace banks as blockchain is designed to coexist with it. I don't see a point where they need to replace banks as they are still functional and blockchain is far from developing the same way as bank does. I think those people just fantasizing things instead of facing the reality. Also, just want to mention that ICO's offering the same services as banks are the ones who were failing because we already have those services offered on crypto. REDUNDANT COIN.

Yes. I am sure that Ethereum will rise again. The only question is when and the best thing to do for now is to hodl because we will never get a price lower than what ETHEREUM has now. Don't believe those people who were saying that ethereum is done because there will be new platforms who will replace ERC20. I've been hearing that for a while but no one replaced the dominance of ETH in terms of platforms.

I kinda agree. Based on what I have noticed, the hype will only happen on the first day of listing and there is no followup from developers to make their coin better. This is the reason why the prices keeps on dropping because of the fact that the coin is not needed or low demand for the coin. I hate it when the money of investors goes to waste but there is nothing I can do about it.
