Yep, when I was a newbie on trading my mistake was I sold my 2 bitcoin because the price were too low and after a month the bitcoin rallied up to $10, 000 and I don't have 2 bitcoin now. that's why I've made a decision to study more about trading.

It's pretty obvious that ripple is backed by a lot of banks so the purpose of crypto is to be decentralized as possible.  they could easily manipulate the market if it's really centralized, so it's up to you and your knowledge if you could really trust Ripple.

If you don't want to get stressed with the prices on market then go invest on ICO's accumulate more coins/tokens while it's still on sale, ICO's is the best way to maximize your capital. So make sure to do more research before investing.

My first investment was on LoyalCoin ICO it was worth $1000 and I made a profit already as it is already up more than the ICO price, I've made enough research and studied the project before investing my hard earned money on this project.

If you want to make money on crypto start doing bounty hunting through promoting ICO's on social medias, blogs, youtube, and etc. try to explore it on Altcoin discussion there will always be a member who will help you here.

I don't panic as well, it is maybe because I'm used to what's going on in Cryptoverse so I'll stay calm always because I truly believe what blockchain and crypto could provide to our lives. So better sit and HODL.

that's always normal for newbies, I was like them before but I've learned how to handle my feelings and studied how to trade using technical analysis and fundamental analysis. So better study and do more research before making an entry, don't panic your experience will always be your best knowledge.

Check out $XEM the undervalued altcoin which has a lot of use cases on its NEM Blockchain. So better watch out for its price this year, it's good for a long term HODL. Always try to research before investing on a specific altcoin.

ICO brings a lot of ideas that could help our community it's important and dangerous at the same time because scam ICO's are very rampant nowadays so better research ICO's that really matters and has a working product.

It isn't dangerous, country banning crypto is only afraid of what crypto could bring and what it changes in the industry. the main reason here is the central banks, they are afraid that decentralization would be applied in every country because they can't touch a single centavo from our money.

Yes I join ICO's that requires KYC just like what I did on Project shivom and Countinghouse which is being managed my Amazix team. I full trust amazix with my documents as I've done enough research on their platform.

Nowadays, you can't earn an easy Merit and that's a fact because you got to earn it through helping the community and post something that matters and that could help beginners and the rest. I've posted a lot but didn't even earned a single merit yet.

Yes, I guess this is the other way of making more profit buying the dip. What happens to most of the ICO's today, bounty hunters arw dumping the token/coin because they don't really have a full support on the project they are promoting.

Yes, but you need to choose a bounty manager or bounty platform that you could really trust sending your documents with because it might end up getting your identity stolen. Better check their security papers before trusting them.

Yes for sure as what I've observed entering on year 2018 a lot of merchants had already made an announcement regarding their partnership from different ICO's. I guess it's a good start by 2019 we'll see a lot.

My biggest regret was when I decided to convert my 2 bitcoin to cash because I didn't knew how bitcoin works at that time then I spent the cash to useless things and at the moment I've studied about crypto I ended up with nothing.

Yes, you've got the point the risk of getting scammed was minimize that's why it's really important to do more research before investing your time and money on a specific project.

Always check the telegram group chat on every altcoin because that's the main channel where they will announce on which exchanges they'll get listed, you need to stay tuned for more updates.

I know it really takes time to identify a legit ICO to support but you need to read and compare the whitepaper, roadmap and always check the people behind the project because it might end like what I saw they just used a photo on google and made that person a CEO.

Be careful with bulltraps, don't just base your thoughts just because of a small pump because at the moment the market is still recovering. The moment you posted this it was just a normal pump and dump.
