Re: More than 80% of ICO's launched in 2017/8 Were Scams, STO's are the next step.

Everything is constantly evolving. I'm not fully convinced STOs are even a step forward. One thing I am sure is that a lot of people think they are so we'll see a lot more of them. There is still always room for improvement. Nothing should ever be the final form. STOs will come and then they'll go and something will supersede them.

Re: Tell us ICO that has ended but still the distribution is not yet for bounty

This isn't unique to the weak market, it happened even throughout 2017. It seems more understandable now but then crap ICOs were raising millions, paying out tokens (that don't cost them anything) to bounty participants would surely help their project but many did not.

Re: How we know scam altcoin project

With more established projects it is easier to tell, because the more time passes the harder it is to fake it. With ICOs for example it is much tougher, you have to be diligent and look in to things. If something doesn't add up, call the project developer's out on it and see if they can offer a believable explanation.

Re: Electroneum(ETN) vs. Masari (MSR) vs. Iridium(IRD)
by

Electroneum is not a coin that can compete with other listed, it is definitely overvalued coin which is not on any of the top exchanges.

Electroneum can still surprise you very positively .. It is constantly being improved and slowly but stable developed. Exactly because the price has dropped so much compared to last year (when was overpriced), with actual updates, has great potential for growth.

Isn't electroneum a scam coin? I'm sure I read somewhere something about the dev's just doing it for money and not actually being committed to seeing their project survive and thrive.

I do indeed have high hopes. Crypto is in a better place now than it was just a few years ago. Arguably even more so than last year. The price may be lower but the expectation is too, most people are here because they have an understanding of the usefulness and potential of crypto rather than just to make gains.

No one should be. It's as corrupt as corrupt gets. The only thing that will come of investing in to petro is that you'll wind up broke. The russians and everyone else should steer clear of Maduro's scam coin.

Re: Cardano and Ripple are the two coins to hold
by
bob3772
on 14/01/2019, 14:54:43 UTC
I do like Cardano, especially now that the hype has dropped away a bit and prices are more reasonable. But it's still a longshot compared with ETH, which already has a strong history. Yes, Cardano is supposed to offer better tech, but ETH is already somewhat battle-tested and continues to be upgraded. Cardano hasn't yet proven itself enough. Not saying it's bad, just a bit of a big gamble compared to ETH which is also underpriced right now.

ETH is under-priced compared to its previous price but arguably very over-priced compared to some of its competitors. That's of course on the basis of it being inferior tech wise. I understand your point about it being battle tested but at some point the other coins will be too. ETH has to find a way to get back to being on a par with them, or people will eventually transition to the other coins.

This thread serves as a great reminder of how foolish some people can be. Or how easily we can be mislead. So many people claiming great buys at x price. All of whom will now be regretting it big time.

Re: No bull market in 2020

Futures trading, or any type of trading will only be profitable if there are variations in the price. The price cannot constantly be pushed down and it remain profitable, the same with it going upwards. Futures trading is little indication of potential bullish or bearish periods as it's a relatively short-term outlook.

Re: Weiss Ratings 7 forecasts 2019

I don't trust anything Weiss Ratings say. In the past they've shown that they're not speaking from a place of objectivity and that they're not doing complete and thorough research before making any forecasts. This is no different, a big ol' shill.

Re: do we still have hope to be able to see bull run??
by

on 11/01/2019, 21:31:02 UTC
Of course there is hope for a bull run. You just need to be realistic in your expectations and your timeline. A bull run takes time to form and is generally over before most people even get wind of it. If you're waiting for the market to recover then you need to be patient and understand it will take months or years, not days or weeks.

Re: ethereum classic suffers 51% attack, but price barely affected

ETC isn't even that small of a coin. Relative to bitcoin and eth it is but compared to many others it's big. Why anyone thinking of creating a coin now thinks that POW is the solution is beyond me when there have been numerous examples of the vulnerability it faces. I think in time we'll see most moving away from POW.

With how successful they've been since ICO they should have plenty of spare funds to put towards growing the project further. Why not invest in to their future success by hiring more developers. With bittorrent they'll need all the spare developers they can get.

Re: Now let us predict the unicorn of 2019,whales are accumulating

I'm near certain that the biggest grower of 2019 will be a new blockchain offering near free transactions with speeds which blow all existing blockchains out of the water. As for what that project will be, I really don't know. A lot are claiming to be able to do it or be close but I am largely skeptical. CS for example claim to achieve over 1m tps and launch in this quarter but they've already delayed multiple times.

Re: Zebi price prediction
by
bob3772
on 05/01/2019, 22:16:47 UTC
Hey everyone what do you think Zebi will be worth end of year ?

I believe if it gets listed to some big exchanges soon end of year should hit 1.50 - 2$ ( that would be around 800-900m market cap)
Taking into account ICON hit 4billion on a bull run think it's highly possible.



I don't think we'll see a big bullish market like 2017. Few projects are valued close to 1bn now so it's a long way for Zebi to go. For my alts I'll be happy with a 100% return in 2019. It will be a big improvement on the losses of 2018.

Re: which are the hottest coins to invest in 2019?

Bitcoin and ETH will still most probably remain strong for 2019. There will be few coins that will outperform them in a likely tough market. I would like in to a few promising infrastructure coins for potentially big returns. Other projects are unlikely to see success in a bearish market.

If you're publishing that you bought a football club when you didn't then you're clearly trying to mislead people for one reason or another. Stay clear of this coin.

Re: Closed my small family farm, sold out rigs, and buy in!
by

on 01/01/2019, 21:21:38 UTC
It's not cost effective to mine these days

Can't get cheap electric so I decided to close my small farm.

I have sold 5 6*cards rigs and got some money back!

It's time to buy in...

any suggestions on  which alt coins to buy  ?

I'd agree with your decision at this point, you can always buy back your mining rigs if it becomes profitable to do so again. Consider the alts that you were trying to mine but were too costly, they're likely to see price increases as people take similar action to yourself.

Re: How will cryptocurrency fare in 2019?
by

on 01/01/2019, 21:19:02 UTC
Cryptocurrency in 2018 was a different story compared with what happened in 2017, a contrast between the biggest bull and the longest bearishness ever witnessed in the cryptocurrency market.
What do you think is going to be the fortune of the market in 2019?

This currently is not the longest bearish market, so I think we'll see another year of stunted growth, perhaps reaching highs around $7000-$8000 but not much higher. I hope to be wrong but history suggests I won't be

Re: Bull run??

Anyone predicting a specific month for a bull run is quite clueless. No one can predict things with such certainty. Even with upcoming bullish news such as Bakkt launch, anyone speculating that that will cause a bull run is doing exactly that, speculating. No one knows, the bull run will likely start when 99% of people don't expect it to.
