Read the roadmap:

Making an iPhone version of MangoCoinz.
-Getting as many developers integrating MangoCoinz into their system. These include online services, mobile and online games etc. This is achieved with our easy to use API that is already in place. Contact us for more info.
-Improving MangoCoinz usability and security which is a constant process.


Future of this coin is really promising.

Introduce your family/relative/friends to mangoz and difficulty will start increasing and as a result price would also increase. Hopefully by the time difficulty increases to 1coin/day development will be done and we can sell mangoz for $100.  Grin. I know I'm not selling mine before that.

hahahahahah

If a crypto is not easy accessible and easy to use with enough incentive by a regular person, then it's not worth it because network effect is everything and 99.9% don't offer such thing, there are only 2 coin offering this.

let me guess...one of them is getgems?  Grin

I usually don't like to mention it in such Threads, but yes Bitcoin and GetGems are the only projects i care about.

Btw you fuckd up in this Thread https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11967225

Next time don't be such a hypocrite.

:facepalm:

only reason I mentioned getgemz is because you've been promoting/spamming getgemz in your every single post/thread. obviously you're not too good with sarcasm.

Well that's because i'm only interested in gg and btc so it's obvious i post only about them. Also last couple days gg has been getting lots of attention so it's obvious, i can't do anything about it if other projects aren't progressing, and one of the reason i'm in gg is because it's not anti bitcoin, in fact it's helping bitcoin with adoption, hence their collaboration with Coinbase.

ffs. 0.15 btc volume I'm sure everyone can see the progress it's making in crypto world. lol




reRaise is also a believer of go's.
So please don't make fun of it.
Everybody believe in something and that's close to their heart,  and if someone makes fun of it,  that hurts.

haha i really don't care, network effect is everything, there are enough coins with 'fancy' features, but they can't even get 1000 users.

It's not 0.15 volume, and volume doesn't mean shit to me. I only care about user adoption, network effect is the most important thing and gg has all the potential, meanwhile while you are talking shit gg app is maxing out group chats with the average joes, teens, girls etc.. This is the dream of every coin.



You clearly show that you are an amateur in choosing legit projects with your mangocoinz (160th on coinmarketcap) and some others nobody has ever heard of. Here is pure evidence that you are a hypocrite liar, you lost all credibility, why should anyone trust you lol https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.11967225

Nothing over six months old?

That seems silly.

Not for a newbie. It's just a replication of the time-worn advice to new stock-market investors: start with the blue chips, and learn as you go. Really, all cryptos - even Bitcoin itself - are highly speculative; we have to work with what we've got. That noted, the best analog to the above time-worn advice in my 'umble opinion is this little list:

----------

Well-Intentioned Advice For Newbies

  • Start with the top ten cryptos listed at Coinmarketcap
  • Cross Bitcoin off the list, for obvious reasons. Optionally, cross off Ripple as well.
  • Cross off the ones that are less than a year old. This eliminates superpumped coins that'll likely fall once the hype dissipates.
  • The alts that remain are your research list. Look into each of them.
  • As part of your research, look at the long-term price charts for each.
  • While you're still new & learning the ropes, look for the alts that show long-term price stability. At this stage in the game, you should focus on avoiding huge losses.
  • Speaking of losses: a useful skill for a trader is taking a loss early. It's not useful for a long-term holder.
  • Apart from the charts, you should be looking for community support and a growing ecosystem.  
  • Don't concentrate all that much on technical innovations: not yet. As you learn the ropes, you'll get a feel for which innovations add value to the alt. As you grow in experience 'round here, you'll be able to distinguish between the good, the vain and the flaky.
  • Expect to be caught up in the periodic bouts of enthusiasm and hysteria 'round here: expect to be part of a "madding crowd" at least once. Leaning to see through them, and to act accordingly, is a hard-won skill that's very valuable in the long term. Sadly, this hard-won skill has to be learned the hard way.
  • Avoid ICOs like the proverbial plague. ICO speculation, as best as I can determine, requires a callous attitude which accepts being scammed as one of the risks of the game. If you don't have that attitude, the ICO circuit is a lot like a Bizarro-World game show where the most enthusiastic contestant 'wins' a huge loss.
  • P.S.: The above list will serve as a "punter's sandbox." Don't relax these criteria unless you've put in some time here and learned some of the ropes. It would be courteous of you to stay in the sandbox until you can take a loss without getting upset: a good habit in general, as stifling your upsets will enable you to learn from your losses.


----------

Granted, a lot of vets would see some of these items as silly - but they're intended as a whole "newbie sandbox" set.

I choose coins based on different factors:

  • coin need to have good unique tech
  • no copy coin
  • a plausible roadmap
  • promising planned features
  • active community

Just invest in Bitcoins, hold them and you'll play safe. Remember, never invest what you can't afford to lose. As for alt coins, be careful on which you invest on. Be sure to make a research on such coin (development, community, etc) before making your move.  Wink

Don't listen to anyone who tells you to gamble, 'invest' or mess around with alt coins unless they come free or you're completely happy to throw those coins away in case it goes wrong.

If you asked someone how to grow your dollar balance and they suggested you invested in a company that was totally anonymous with no comebacks run by amateurs in a shaky industry or told you to go to the nearest casino and throw all your money down on a random number, you hopefully wouldn't think they were worth listening to.

Hi, I'm relatively new to cryptocurrencies and i want to start investing. I'm just wondering how to decide what currencies to invest in. There are so many its hard to decide. I currently own some: Dash coins, litecoins, shadow cash, ripple, and of course bitcoins. Is there any good methods of choosing currencies other than just identifying trends in charts or reading about them? Any other beginner advice?


Putting money in altcoins is way more of a gamble than just putting in Bitcoin.And even that is a gamble because all those crypto thing is still so young and an unknown field and nobody can predict the future. If you have put money in Bitcoin and believe in it then hold it.And always only invest what you can afford to loose!!
Don't gamble with it in Casinos or whatever. The chance to loose it is very high.
Regarding altcoins do your own research.Maybe have a focus on the top 15-20.Check my sig. Wink

Depends on what you like. Shortterm gamble coin or longterm investment.

Longterm: Coins that have a lot of devs and deliver what they promised. Buy NXT, Vanilla and some other. They are very rare

Shortterm: Ninja launches, DPOS, High Rewards on the first blocks, Twitter Hype, Name of Dev is always [Coinname]dev or Cryptowest or ICM  Grin

For what it's worth, wouldn't invest in altcoins.  Might as well put the money you'd like to invest into bitcoin, which is by far the "safest" play, despite is having pretty massive upside still.  Might be able to luck your way into an altcoin that outperforms, but the opposite is much more likely IMO.

From investing in cryptocurrencies can earn only the developers who create the coins. This is what I think. I have bitcoins and invested those only one time in one investment fund. Lost all. So I suggest to not invest your coins but to save them. Or invest those only if you can find trustable people who have access in important info that can do you ti earn for sure.

According to me it is not worth to invest in crypto. There is not rules that can help someone to do the right prediction except rare cases when specific people have the right info. Info that in any way will be divided with someone because they want to earn them selves. So save your coins for you and use them in case of need.
