Altcoin Investment is profitable if you know the good project options. Choosing a potential ICO is not simple to do because we can not determine the best ICO. Before investing, I usually read the report and then join their social media team to see how they promote the coin and see how many people are interested in the coin. Speaking a lot about the project

ICO as well as trading on the stock exchange is a high-risk investment! Buying tokens even with good bonuses on the first round of sale then you can not even return the invested funds. I apologize for my English.

Man, there are many aspects to consider:
- the product: if solves a problem not solved so far (scalability for example)
- the team: people having a great background that have already delivered;
- the token metrics: the percentage to be sold, the locking period;
- the hype.
Sometimes people are so not rational at all and go all in for a project that has enormous hype and (maybe) no strong fundamentals at all without solving a new arrised problem. So all the ideas exposed so far are relative to how people respond to the hype mainly. That's how I view it.
When it comes to the price, it usually deflates or inflates relative to the news or to the movement of Bitcoin or to some pump and dump group. If you have followed CMC in the last few weeks, you have definitely seen that when BTC rises, also other coins rise. And the same happens for the reverse situations.
Lastly, I want to leave you with a new token that I am very excited about that will rise in price when a big news comes out or when BTC grows. We'll see if that happens.
The token is BNTN created by the guys from #Blocnation. The token will be used as a payment currency inside private events. A bracelet will do the transaction for you, all you'll have to do is to "charge" your bracelet with tokens and bring your arm near to the POS in order for the NFC cip inside the bracelet to pay for you.

Hope it will help you!

Being a newbie, I'm looking for a good direction on learning about the markets and trading. How would you decide which ICO to invest in? Cryptocurrency is too volatile, but so there is still many people who go into investment that goes even in the newest coins which are similar (not same) in the functionality that they offer (e.g. anonymity). What is the possibility on any of these coins (or digital currency in general) being successful (or profitable)? I'm also not clear on how does the value of coin inflate or deflate; especially when the flow is controlled by the developers?

tl;dr Any resources or pointers on the topic are appreciated.
The flow of coins is not controlled by the developers in 50 percent of cases. It is better to invest in top coins, rather than look for ICO that are changeable.

just recently finished ICO interesting, such as Quarkchain or phantom, and the price of the exchange can be very attractive, I'd consider new projects.
I now try to pay attention to those ico companies that are very actively collecting funds from the investor. This makes it possible to hope that the prices of their coins will not pass before the entire crypto-currency market.

If planning to invest in Altcoins you need to be careful in deciding because most cryptocurrency today are dropping and this might be lossing your capital if not properly check and also you may ask some advise to your friend if you really need to invest while the market is still falling.

Visa, the largest banks and financiers such as Bafet, like fire are afraid of cue and crypts in general, because they can lose hundreds of billions. And it is because of them that we see such a low cue rate now. But their goal is to make the price so that the mining becomes unprofitable. And now think, who has more financial power - from Bitmark or Visa? I'm afraid the next few months will be a nightmare with the course.

Few thing that i usually will do:
- read white paper
- find out whether there is any real usage for the coin
- who is the team member


For you can check the price history and marketplace movement alone mate. if you see the good growth on the market and volume is better you may choose the any one among that to invest mate. You do not to dig their whitepaper after listed on the exchanges.
That is not actually for investing on altcoins.
If you wish to invest on any ICO projects you can boldly go to check the white paper and team information to confirm the project legitimacy.

I can recommend matchico.com and desearch.com for those who deal with crypto. I've been using it lately and it helped me much.  Roll Eyes

For beginners it must work hard, active in the forum and learn more about the ins and outs as well as all the features that exist in this forum,
if you want to invest in an ICO project you have to be brave to accept the risks if it is not what you want but to be able to predict which projects are good you can see from the vision of the mission, the manager, the team and the project's roadmap and all that you have to learn first in order to avoid from a scam ico project.
In short, you should really be sensible on all sorts of things and be responsible on the things should be done by an investors and not just carelessly making any decisions without any valid basis or just pure speculation or guess because most likely this will really lead into loss of money.Every investment do have corresponding risk and you should embrace that stuff when you decide to go along or making investment.

In any case, before investing money in the project, you need to study it well. Check the team, site, hardcap, softcap, witelist. B thoroughly studying this, only after that to enter the project.

This isn't really true, when a coin gets to a certain point it isn't really controlled by the developers anymore. I think you mean supply inflate or deflate?

When a coin launches it will have a set distribution model written into the chain by code. Say 5 coins per block from block 1-500 then 10 coins per block from 500-50000 (just as an example)

Now that version of the chain (and wallet ect) will be up on github, if the devs just out of nowhere wanted to change those numbers they would have to modify the code and put up a new release, after that its up to the community if they want to download that new release with updated code.

If a majority of the community does not update then that original blockchain would remain ongoing with the original code.

This is why you hear the statement "The strongest chain will win", developers only have control to a certain extent, they need the community to be in consensus (agreement) with them to push their releases. This is a big reason why forks happen.

Hope this helps, good luck.
Yes, thanks for the clarification

The most important of all the aspects are the developers even if in paper different projects may seem similar to each other if one project has dedicated developers and the other doesn't, then the project that has the best developers is going to become a successful coin and give you profits while the second is going to disappear soon after its creation.
True, although not all coins' devs decide to reveal their information; and I assume a motivated one can go to great lengths to present dev profiles and commits to the core - till release and/or to interact. My point is although the presentation and at face value we might see many devs, how can be sure of the verify of this information?

I also considered mining, which could also be considered as an investment, but is usually controlled by ones with the highest hash rate, and hence seems like the need of having a large number of computing units (cpu,gpu,asics) to be successful.
You can still mine some altcoins if you have a higher hash rate miner but it all depends on all of your expenses in the current and the total rate that your miner can give to you. But since the difficulty level is raising it must be harder and harder for someone to mine when he got too small altcoin(s) to mine. So it could be better if you must have invested in an altcoins rather than mining, you could do some trading while investing on altcoins. Just fill your portfolio with all of the good altcoins that has a potential to grow in the future. 
Yeah I'm mining for fun, but I'm mostly out of the hashrate race; especially with the new ASICs coming out every other month for new algos, GPU mining is not a profitable option.
