Topic: How do you invest safely? (Read 193 times)

At present I think I don't think only I have invested here Finals can be called the number one exchange in the world there I have invested some of my funds that I have here and from here I have many currencies that will be very beneficial and good profit for the future.  I have invested there and you can also invest there which can be a very profitable investment for us at present.

You don't hand out your money to invest to other people. It is you that should be doing all the research before you invest into some projects.

Why not invest into the old and common ones to avoid being problematic with how you're going to avoid being scammed? Most of the new projects are pump and dump and scams.

That's why if that's your basis in investing then you're not different from what you've described of handing your money to some guy.

of you really wanted to invest safely then the only and best way is invest either in Bitcoin
or in top ranking currencies because that is where the money should be placed unless you are willing
to risk completely in those project that you don't even know and understand ?

no market ever just constantly moves up. there is always ups and downs
 so the best method when assessing which markets to buy into, is to look at each markets history of their periodic / cycles low and high and see where the current market price sits



this shows charts like the bottom two have least down potential and most up potential

To invest safely, diversify ur portfolio, thoroughly research options, align with your risk comfort, think long-term, and seek professional advice if necessary.

you wanted to be completely safe? then never invest in new project instead focus in existing and has credibility projects.

in short invest only in high ranking currencies or those lower ranked but has truly a potential and not just a shilled or a pumping and dumping projects that will surely take your money right after you invest those.
we have seen tons of those in the past so better not to become a victim also .

While these strategies can help reduce risks, remember they can't eliminate all chances of encountering untrustworthy individuals. Stay cautious, trust your instincts, and be ready to reject suspicious investment opportunities.

This is the one I am researching hard. With face to face investments, I have options for lawsuits, repossessions, etc., if someone tries to pull a ast one. With global investments, I have no physical access to those I invest in. And they have no physical access to me, if they need it. So how does one secure best against the untrustworthy, I wonder?

I am perfectly fine with those risks, as mentioned. I just feel like having some hold over my investment so I know people do not simply run off with it and disappear. IRL I can sue or just track them down and take my investment back if they try to scam me, but if I am on a completely different continent, that does not work. I am hoping to find some kind of escrow or other method for securing that my investment is at least used as described. Whether or not a project fails beyond that, that is life.

Note: investment is as gambling.

No matter how knowledgeable you're in the business sector, you most have a lost somedays and if not careful it would be a concurrent which leads to the shuts down of most investors ventures

But your safety is probably to depend on your management efficiency and your investing systematic such as where, when and what to invest on.
Also considering who in corporation.

Conclusion: you can only limit risks in your investment but can't get a safety guarantee.

How do you personally get that feel? I'm old, I get it by knowing people for some time and knowing others who can give me a different view of them, like IRL. Doing the same with a bunch of talented geeks across the globe is a very different challenge, it eels like.

The best investments are in deposits and government bonds. I live in Poland, here, for example, there is an option to invest in deposits at the rate of inflation, it does not save you what the law in most cases, but at least it helps quite significantly without the risk of losing money.

The "safest" way to invest is to engage with the project's community. Interact, whether thru Twitter Spaces, Telegram, Discord, etc to get a feel of what the community is all about. It's the best way to know whether the project's gonna rug, or it has potential... at least for me anyway.

It's a made up name for the example. The name was meant to look silly.

That works when dealing entirely within crypto space, true. But many projects need to operate in dollars or euro, since their budgets demand payment in such. But hell, even in pure crypto space, scammers seem to be undermining the system! Hell, I almost invested a few grand into Log*n Pa*l's Cryptoz*o stunt! I'm looking for some clever way to have both freedom and control, if that is even possible at this point!

In Crypto space, the solution lies with Decentralized Model, a bit more like ICO (Initial Coin Offering) but more secure.
The model gives the funders or contributors the opportunity to fully control the keys to their assets or investment funds, which could be escrowed or locked in a Smart Contract under an agreement between the funders and developers on different promises on Project Roadmap that must be fulfilled before certain percentage of the funders locked funds can be unlocked and released to the project developers. Funders can always withdraw their funds if rules are broken otherwise they can't be withdrawn yet.

It's safer to unlock contributors locked funds and release them gradually to developers as they continue to fulfill parts of the promises in their roadmap. The contract can say: "unlock and release 5% of all contributors locked funds when number 1 promise on the roadmap is fulfilled".

Before fund is released, there should verifiers (with reputable verifiers having more powers) that check to see whether part of the agreement for fund release has actually been fulfilled or whether Work has actually been done, if yes, they tick "Yes" or "Work Done"... verifiers who disagree are free to point out issues for further verification before majority of the verifiers can finally tick "Work Done" after the issues are resolved/solved. This is a simple Smart Contract approach that can be automated or manual or both, and can functions in decentralized manner..

Not a real project but you come to Mentioned the name? 

This is not about investment advice, as such. But I have been itching to start investing in crypto-related projects and have come across a few interesting ones. The problem is, in today's world, handing over money to someone seems about as safe as throwing it from a moving car and hoping the right people catch it. I am totally okay with investments having some risk, I even like to put a bit into unlikely projects in case they take off. But I do not want to just hand some money over to a project and then realize they just ran away with it.

So my question is, how do _you_ invest in projects, regardless of the size, in ways where you feel you are not going to get outright robbed? If I want to put a few grand into Billy Bob's Crypto Cousins Emporium (not a real project...) but do not want to just hand over cash to someone in another country who then shuts down the operation and runs cackling to the bank with what was my but is now their money, what are my best options?
