Yes of course we need to figure out what we are investing into just to make sure we are in the right track. Some people invest because of emotions like greediness and go with the flow of hype which will sometimes end up like hell to their investments. I think long term investment with the trusted cryptocurrency like Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dash, Litecoin and Monero or those that are listed on top 20 coins in coinmarketcap are good choice.

99.9% of tokens are crap, and ICOs are scams. Thank God I only invest in a couple of graphics cards. Now I hold some bounty tokens with almost zero value. Hence, I'll only collect Bitcoin if I have excess cash.

People will invest in dog shit, if there are some reason why dog shit's price would skyrocket in the future.

And there's nothing wrong with that.

I'm confident most people who piled in only had one thing on their mind and it was dollars, not decentralisation. Since the creators of almost all coins were only doing it for dollars too then there's a certain collective honesty there, albeit an unspoken one.
There was no problem buying some like that of coins actually we can earn money for investing that kind of coins.
But we make sure if that coins is have a future if not must better to sell it early or not invested on it before you loss of profit.

The hyped in 2017 cause bitcoin and others cryptocurrencies to surged toward the end of the year and complete crashed back to the bottom in December 2018. Did people really know what they are investing in?  Is a question that keeps ringing in my mind and actually the answer to that question is that people follow the hype and forgot to  checked for reality before investing and this come from the testimony of those that has claim of making big profits or gain from the past surge that came into the cryptocurrencies market.
I think the red flag there is that people think of what they are going to get from their investments into cryptocurrencies more than the capital they have invested and as results when the reality done on them,  they began to sell out of panic and in turn the market clash like it happens through 2018.
Now that we have another opportunity to invest because of the down turned,  I do believe that it is good you look at the reality behind any coin you want to invest in and not the FUD,  manipulations,  FOMO and hype behind those coins.
These two years we have seen so many ups and downs in cryptocurrency, I bet no one among us has never been scammed one or another either from investing or from a bounty hunting, we have gained a lot of experiences from all of these so if you are still listening to all the hype and fuds that means you are not yet learning a lot of from the past three years, it's very important that you know fully well the coins that you are investing.

Well, if you decide to invest in dog shit, then you should not complain when it smells. These investors should do the basic research into the commodities or technologies that they invest in, so that they are familiar with the pros and cons of investing in these types of investments. We know a bit more about the technology, so when FUD is spread in the media, we can identify it and ignore it.

These clueless investors are running for the hills, with the slightest bullshit that are plastered on social media.   Wink

   It took me years to figure out but I've realized that I've been investing in everything but myself. That will be my greatest investment.
   As far as crypto is concerned, I stopped investing my time on short term goals and starting focusing on long term investments.

But most ICO projects in 2017 are successful and profitable for investors.
Are you kidding me? The only players these ICOs were profitable for were those behind the ICOs, and those who gambled and by luck made a ton of profit. In both cases it only concerns a small number of people.

Most people lost a lot of money due to their bad investments in "world changing" projects. Is it their fault? It surely is, but that doesn't change the fact that most people lost money.

And more, than many exchanges released in 2017 and they generate their exchange token. This brings more benefits to the first investors involved in trend change projects.
Only exchanges benefit from these tokens, because something that had no value when created, suddenly is worth hundreds of millions up to a few billion in Binance's case. It's ridiculous and very harmful to the ecosystem.

So, people who are loyal to bitcoin have invested in it back when it was worth less than a dollar, and they kept true to that and they did so because they support it not to get massive profit, and those who invested in it only when it reached 19k back in 2017 are just in it for the money and now they cry because it went down, this market is not for them because it requires patience and nerves of steal to be rewarded and those who supported over the year were able to get it. and this goes the same for the other crypto currencies, if you invest in one of them you have to truly believe in it and keep supporting even through the loss to be able to get profit.

Currently, there are no great options like 2017, so I choose IEO as an alternative. But this also has high risks because of the beginning of projects that no longer bring profits to investors. Or maybe this will be the new era of cheap Altcoins.

Almost all options in 2017 were goddamn terrible unless you got out in time. I would not call any of them great.

It'll be interesting to see what is latched on to if there's another mania phase. ICOs are thankfully dead with stake hammered up their sphincter just to be sure. It may even be Bitcoin itself but that's a crazy notion.

The problem with people who are investing out of hype is that, they are not really aware what caused the hype.
Of course they're not.  They see asset X making the news by skyrocketing in price, hear about it over and over in the media and finally decide to gamble on asset X.  In 2017, asset X was bitcoin.  All throughout history, it's been other assets/investments/whatever.  After all the little people have flooded into the market, any bad news can kick off a decline leading to panic selling.  Once that happens, asset X crashes back down to earth.

I didn't jump on the bandwagon in 2013 when bitcoin was booming.  I was very skeptical and thought it was some stupid internet money that would never find a user base.  I watched with detached amusement as the Mt. Gox debacle unfolded and bitcoin crashed.  But I also saw that the community was strong and was composed of hardcore enthusiasts, and eventually I started believing bitcoin could be an excellent investment.

Right now I'm looking into staking PoS coins, which currently aren't being hyped to death, and some of them are trading at fairly low prices.  I think now is a good time to get in, when everyone isn't pouring money into them and driving up the prices.  By the way, that's called buying low and hopefully selling high.  Heh heh.

This is not only about investor's personal research. Pretty often you may see an ICO with a good idea, decent team and vision about realization of their project but they are hardly hitting their soft cap and don't have enough volume and remain unknown on some shitty exchange. While at the same time ICOs with an obviously shitty idea but they are promoted by some well-known retards so this project is successfully passing the ICO, hitting an exchange, getting a high price, lose this price, get under pre-ico level and then gets delisted because the project is actually shit.
ICO details does not really matter while you are choosing where to invest your money.

If you did your assignment then you are on your way to profit, the best time to implement the DYOR or do your own research, is when the market is dipping, find the coin that is likely to make you profit for long term or short term so when the big shift happens you can just sit tight and enjoy your profit.

Buy $BGL before it's too late!
-snip-
Some of the shit people sometimes offering to non crypto user to buy a crypto example like Ponzi Coin and other crypto assets. but they not explain the risk went investing/trading at cryptocurrency. I already see a few people like my cousin/friend noncrypto user they got capital lose because dont know the risk of trading they said just know trading from someone else.
Problem with that people was easily been convince, they think that trading is just a simple task and it can be done even without proper knowledge, it's needed to be figured out limiting yourself by investing huge money, best to make sure that you are using only spare that you can afford to let go just in case you failed your attempt and learn from it.

The hyped in 2017 cause bitcoin and others cryptocurrencies to surged toward the end of the year and complete crashed back to the bottom in December 2018. Did people really know what they are investing in?

if someone came to you and asked you:

In your opinion, the price of  $5000 is too high or too low? What would you answer? that the price of  $5000 is very low? so I would ask, how do you know that the price of bitcoin is very low and how do you know that the price of bitcoin is very high? There is no way people are sure that the price is low or the price is high. what happened in late 2017 was an accident that until today does not have a concrete explanation of what really happened, there are only assumptions

I think those are the new people you are talking about. I personally have been investing into bitcoin since 2012, there were times when I lost all of it because real life urgency stuff happened and I had to cash out everything I had and there was a dark time in my life where I didn't really know if I will be eating anything that night or if I had to make due with what little I had in the fridge and those are really bad days but I also had the times when I was capable of spending x10 the minimum salary to live a luxurious time as well.

Now, I am smarter about it and save some aside but after all none of the ups and downs was caused by bitcoin going up or down, it was mostly because I didn't know how to handle money very well. That is why I can clearly say I have known what I am investing into for a long long time.

Nowadays, people only want investments with high returns for a short amount of time, and they find it on cryptocurrencies even without conducting proper research and background checks. Ultimately they end up with losses they can't bear because they have invested on the wrong time, and could only sell to a loss in order to lose more money. Those who came in before them who actually knows what they're doing end up taking the fresh money from unknowing users, resulting for the latter to not come into crypto ever again no matter what happens.
