It is not hacked, dont worry and do not believe everythins mcafee says

I started out with buying Ripple but after reading more and more on the subject I do not have great beliefs in it anymore. I think you can invest the money better, for me that is in Ethereum and DeepOnion at the moment. Otherwise finding a good ICO might be interesting, I chose for APEX recently.

Name of the ICO: ConnectX
Project field: Safe transactions
ICO start/end: Phase I running now
ICO price: 0.18$

Phase 1:  48,000,000 coins at .15 – .27 cents per coin = $7.2M
Phase 2:  42,000,000 coins at .31 – .87 cents per coin = $13.02M
Phase 3:  20,000,000 coins at $1.00 – $1.80 per coin = $20M
Phase 4:  90,000,000 coins at $2.00 per coin = $180M
Phase 5:  ConnectX coins can be exchanged with our mobile app.

200,000,000 coins sold for $220M to complete the 4 phases.
Total of 2,000,000,000 ConnectX Coins minted.
10% to investors.
70% will be used for the network, community incentives and tokenomics, etc.
20% to stakeholders and managers of product divisions.

Basically they are bringing safe transmission and storage technology via their own network of small satellites. It is focused on storing financial information and performing transactions via the satellite-based private network to make the usage of internet unnecessary. They give webinars every 3-4 days to make their plans clear. They showed their plans for the ground-stations which is the substitute for a mining rig, you can earn coins by acting as ground station.

I would say of the known and stabile altcoins that Ethereum is a good choice. DeepOnion is a good choice of the niche of privacycoins, and for the newcomers and ICO's my pick would be Apex. I would suggest not to throw your complete budget on one coin but I would split it over three coins. good luck!

My top 5 currently is:
DeepOnion
RaiBlocks
Oyster Pearl
Stellar
Spectrecoin

Sell a big part so you are a lucky millionaire, and keep some bitcoins on the side

As I think it must be quite easy to get at many exchanges and quite fast, I think I would go for litecoin probably

I think both are good options, maybe ETH as a more stable grower and Waves the one that could bring you more in a shorter time if you are lucky. In both cases I would say it is a good pick

Im on Bleutrade atm which also has a big variety of coins

Someone here in Holland actually did this, sold everything for bitcoin (when it was at 4.000 dollar) and now lives in a trailer with his family.

Dent made a huge loss today, I think this is a good moment to step in and invest in that coin!

A very nice day to buy if you ask me!

I just joined this one from airdrop alert

I think it is nicely balanced. It is not about being spectacular or boring but making good decisions, so let's see what it will bring you

I think that it will rise again, I've seen it happen for many coins that they take a dip but as long as it's a good project it will get back up

Can you give us the reason you have invested in this? On a quick glance I personally do not see it yet

This indeed deserves its own topic, a lot of people just buy for a quick buck and do not what is behind a coin
When the price stabilizes I think it will all be better, even though that might be years from now

Some signature campaigns allow newbies I saw, like neurogress which is open at the moment

No one can predict such a thing, but the thing we know is that more and more of the bitcoins have been mined and a some point the end will be reached.
Besides that more and more people get in contact with crypto, that together can still make Bitcoin rise.
