I think the project has some legs, I don't for one minute think it will replace Eth, but then again it's fairly clear from the teams response that's not their aim.

It's a strong team, with a good history and the whitepaper has some interesting ideas. There's a long way to go but it certainly seems worth an investment I think. It's a risk, but the price reflects that.

The first two big tests will be getting the testnet online which is apparently Q2 this year and then of they can get the mainnet out in Q4 as planned.

That's a really good write up, good of you to mention the team as well. Far too many people in crypto are just interested in self promotion when in reality it takes a good strong team to make a decent coin.

It would be good to get a bit more information here, I've been looking into Koinos for a few days now. White paper is interesting and the discord groups been handy to fill in some blanks.

Having more here may help get the word out a bit more and enable more people to get involved at an earlier stage.

The rapid evolution aspect of koinos and ability to complete upgrades without a hard fork sound good.

I looked into CPU mining koin but it's cheaper to actually buy the coin on uniswap at the moment, so I think that's the best option for obtaining join at present.

For me it's a no brained, now's a great time to buy alts, I've been stocking up on neo and DeepOnion for the last few weeks, they are both really undervalued at the moment.

I do love the summer sales :-)

How much you profit can depend on how well you choose your coins and how much you invest. There's also airdrops like DeepOnion that gave their coins away to community members for free. I personally like to have a mix of them all, I've some that I bought, earned and won, this gives me a.good diverse portfolio that I expect will increase in value significantly over the next few years.

For me it's better to hold for the long term, I've bought a lot of alts in the dip, neo, monero, z cash, DeepOnion and many others, I'm planning on keeping hold of these for at least 5 years. Some will book, some won't but overall I expect a very healthy return in a few years time.

Crypto will mainstream, it's just a matter of when that happens.

100% product is important but it doesn't have to be a product that's already developed it can be something that works with the coin. For example DeepOnion has DeepVault which allows documents to be registered and verified by the blockchain, this is particularly useful in things like legal matters and copyright issues.

If a coin isn't supported by a product or a very good use then I always wonder what the point of it is.

Crypto has certainly improved my knowledge levels, when I first got involved 6 months ago I found the DeepOnion forum, I didn't have a clue what any of this was about or how Crypto could help change the world for the better. Through that community and the one here I have improved my knowledge of tech, privacy issues and how the right tech can really change things.

Have noticed a few new members in already, good to see us growing again. As soon as people get to see just how much work has been done and some of the things that are planned we will get a lot more involved.

the trivia channel is great fun, I have learned a lot in there, some things that i didn't want to know however. I will never look at an octopus the same again

Good news, always good to see more members joining the discord chat. Say hello when you get on there

You are in luck, there's still quite a few ads left, think there's 26 to go. Head over to discord and I am sure there will be plenty of people on to chat with about it.

We have a term for people like Goat here in the UK, he is a grafter. It means someone who works exceptionally hard in what they do. No one I have met in crypto deserves the term more than he does. The work he puts in for the community is utterly amazing. I am just glad to be a part of it.

Same here I want that sweet sweet Masternode running as soon as they are available!

At the moment the airdrop is purely based on discord I think, there is a forum in the works but in order to get the airdrop you just need to get to lvl 10 on the discord chat. Even if you don't qualify for a free spot I think 2500 traw works out at around $15 or $20. You would make that back in a couple of weeks of airdrops.

Trivia on the chat is brilliant, I always go out of my way to make it for those. Its not for the prizes (although they are good) its just a good laugh with the community.

The value will come with time, thats one of the things i like about this project, its not full of people asking when moon or when lambo, the community is genuine, interested in TRAW and happy to let the team develop it the way it should.

Loving the roadmap, just shows how much has already been accomplished. Big things to come, can't wait for that traw powered vending machine!

It's nice to be part of an airdrop that doesn't have hundreds of false accounts. Goat works hard to stop the fakes and it shows!

That's a really generous offer. I really hope whoever gets it makes the most of the opportunity. Kind of like a traw scholarship
