I believe there are projects/ platform that will enable crypto payment although with their own currency. One of that is Toorcoin, they are developing a platform right now where you can book for a flight and would also include travel packages https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=3479146.0

Yes, it may take some time before the market can recover. I think this will be good for the market in the long run as scam projects and shit coins will be drained out of the market.This would be the best time load your bag with the more established coins.

Crypto is for everyone and it would be such a waste not to take a chance with this technology. Although, I see your point. Not everyone would take time to study it nor invest in it when they see that prices fluctuates so much. Also, some people just don't take interest and sometimes see it as a scam. However, they might change mind especially if you have proof of how much you have earned or what the benefits of blockchain are.

I completely agree with you. The thing that is a bit annoying is that you don't know when is the best time to sell, there's always a right timing. However, there are also times when you should have sold early as the price continues to decline. Its all in right timing, research and luck too.

Absolutely, I believe in crypto and bounties. I'm joining a lot and already got some coins although the prices are just not as decent yet as the market now is abysmal. There a re a lot of good projects with products already and great platforms out there, research is key in finding gold in this heap of ICOs.

Yes, I sympathize with you, it's taking quite a long time for the market to recover. We don't know for sure when it's gonna rise up again but a lot of people believe that it would happen before the year ends. We just got to hold on and just imagine the good days ahead.

Well I think it would be great if the coin is listed already before distribution, at least it will be easier to liquidate if you want to. This makes the coin more accessible to buyers and sellers. On the other hand, the down side would be that there will be great amount of dumpers that could drive the price low too fast.

It is possible in the crypto world to earn some decent money without investing although you got to work hard for it. You can join some airdrops and bounties which you can then sell and invest on coins you like. There are times that the bounties itself are also good investments, so, it's up to you whether or not to sell or hold them.

I'm currently doing bounties now and still to get my rewards but for sure it definitely is a happy thing to receive something for what you worked hard for. I just hope that it would be worth something or that I would actually be paid so I'm pretty anxious at the moment and waiting for it.

Definitely, some ICOs are not scam and I have seen and participated in some of them. I have now become choosy and a bit more wise now so to speak in involving in any projects. What you have said are right, you got to check the team, the product or platform and the project over all. Although there are projects that are these but end up as scam in the end, so it is a risky business after all. Just invest what you afford to lose.

I agree with you that the crypto and blockchain technology has so much potential and I believe its capacity to disrupt so many industries. It's just that the market today is quite discouraging for the new investors and the continuous down trend seems to scare them more. At this moment, we only just have to wait for the market to boom again and hold our precious coins.

I think there are some projects that really require a certain amount of funds thus needing their cap to be reached. However, there are always exceptions and I have seen some that even go without ICO and are actually successful and even gaining some partnerships. I say it depends mainly with the project, maybe if its something that is technical and require expertise and special skills then it would be quite expensive.

Just hold your investments and don't do anything else, you would lose more if you sell now. I feel you because my portfolio lowered for more than 70% and there are times when I thought that I should have sold some. I didn't expect that it would go low like this but I'm just holding and praying to the Crypto Gods

I am half, half about this. I guess it creates great hype and might help in the success of the project in the long run. However, sometimes you just can tell when the celebrity is just not into it and not very sincere about how and what the project is. Maybe if that celebrity is qualified enough or very knowledgeable about the concept or field he is into, then, that can definitely help.

Definitely, even airdrops promised by ICOs don't come at all. I guess the reason why this happens is that some ICOs just don't get their target sale or sometimes they don't really manage the bounty well. If this continues, the bounty quality would really decline and would most likely discourage a lot of people to just join any bounties. We would just start to be more choosy with projects and maybe this could help to lessen scam projects too.

Right now, I think an ICO having a product definitely gives them the edge. Most of the bounties and ICOs I join almost always have a product or a platform already working. This is one thing I look for because at least you know the team is committed and that they can really deliver with their road map.

I think its not about a coin being erc20 or what but its more on the project itself and the devs. I have also seen a lot of projects that creates hype and good PR until the end of distribution or airdrops and then you wouldn't hear anymore about them. It is annoying but I guess it's easy to pinpoint erc20 tokens because it is easy to create smart contracts in it so most scam and shit coins are made out of it.

I absolutely think betting with crypto is an emerging and disrupting industry. Betting has been a part of our history since time immemorial so it is deeply rooted in our culture, however, using crypto will make it more exciting and transparent. At least, with the blockchain technology, it will be more efficient, regulated and there will be less chance for people to be deceitful.

I believe the best strategy for now is still to hodl. It seems like everything is unstable and uncertain so the prices of the coins are not reaching their potential yet. Some projects are still establishing their platform so it may take a while. It is making you lose your sanity but at least you won't regret that you sold low.

Yep, still using MEW and just partner it with metamask when I'm doing transactions. I think MEW is still the most popular and secure wallet to get out there for erc20 coins. I still got my coins there but thanks for the update, just now did I know about the team developing a new one. We'll just have to see the developments.
