I have this curiosity before about which one is efficient and more attractive investment. When it comes to blockchain, which do you think is far more superior? Or can gain more investors about the two?

Usually tokens are using smart contract platform such as ethereum, neo, stellar but on the other hand, the coin has its own blockchain and could be related to mining. Well vice versa for the other one.

I never see any IEO conducted that is coin type means every exchange out there prefer token accwsibility cause its very handy. So your vote goes to? Technical aside, investment is very efficient to tokens but only for short period of time through trading and IEOs but when they proceed to their own blockchain then thats the start of progress and the real deal. Any subjective thoughts?

In my opinion, tokens will be valuable if a project has a good product and has a clear use case and is able to provide revenue to the company. It does not matter whether the coins or tokens because for investors the most important thing is price growth in the market and the products produced in accordance with the roadmap or whitepaper

Coins are better to me, they have separate blockchain and Algorithm, this makes them more serious, I know their are scam coins too but not as many as scam tokens today, ethereum makes scammers work alot easier

because of its simplicity, ethereum is sometimes the choice for the basis of coin development. however, I also chose coins, because it looks more professional and also has broader functions. Until now, I have better coin assets than tokens. it's just that, all depends on the function and quality.

Yes it is because it will not take $200 to create a working token, compared if you are going to go Bitcoin derivatives or clone, but it's all about the project I have seen scammers using both algos, it's how good you are in looking and analyzing the project, and the algo is not even one of the criteria.

Tokens because of easy of selling, for coins you usually have to wait for it to be listed somewhere while tokens can be easily sold on dex (for example, forkdelta for ethereum, stellarterm for stellar).

Ofc you can't sell tokens if they are locked.

That depends on code that has already created. A coin can be clocked too. I must remind you that about the possibility for the backdoor to be created even if that was using its own blockchain.
There was a lot of possibilities and this is not only happening with token.

Yes, I totally agree with you, every coin has their own Blockchain, while not for tokens, And every project that has their own Blockchain usually they will be more serious in developing their project. So I think it's very appropriate if we want to invest, so choosing coins is better than tokens.

This can be one marketing technique. By using a chain from a well-known and powerful platform that can attract market interest better than using a new chain that is not yet known, after all this can also be for cost-effectiveness. One time, when the community and the project get stronger, it will usually be swapped, as happened with BNB.

I prefer both of token and coin they have different ability when it comes to market. Well if it is for long term I prefer a coin but when it comes to short time profit I prefer to have a token both of them are profitable if you are going to have an investment better to know what investment you wanted if it is for long term of for short term.

I thought too earlier that which is the best option to investment between coin and token but the reality is only potential project will stay in crypto market doesn't matter it's token or coin. Of course people will show their interest on coin because they have their own blockchain. But there are many coin out there which have no value than other token. The same case for token too.

I saw many project started based on ETH blockchain and after couple of years they created their own blockchain. So in my opinion don't see which one is coin or which one is token, you should invest on reliable project which have good future.

It caused by the old altcoins have developed the product while new altcoins are about to start. The fact that there was a lot of new coins the developed the product just in short time and it has also proven a new project is also having the potential to grow like the old coins too.

We must not feel doubt about these coins because they have the same potential.

It is a difficult question. When you create coin, it is much harder to attract community to download your wallet and use your own chain. But when you create a token, what is the value? Many coins are just utility tokens - tokens that can be used on a platform, but would you really use it? Cheesy

Either token or coin, it doesn't really matter. The only difference between a token and a coin is own blockchain. A token can out perform a coin this can be seen in the different blockchain projects we have seen around. We should identify projects with prospects whether be it a token or a coin I invest in solid projects.

I would rather add to just a few of the top altcoin investments than with new coins generated from the ICO project, because most of them do not have a good selling price or sometimes even have no further price developments in the market.

I would invest in a new project if I can see there is a good reason. If it's supported by big individuals like Elon or Draper. Often times if the project is to be developed by successful developers, it will likely be successful project as well. Dan Larimer developed Bitshares and Steemit. If he develops another project, we'd probably see millions of USD poured into it from investors.

It depends on the project and its nature but quality coins projects are always preferred because they have their own blockchain network and only serious and big developer team can come up with such a project while tokens based projects are tricky in a sense that even scammers can cretae their tokens easily and come up with a fake project, so we have to be very careful while selecting where to invest.

That's the usual flaw in tokens, easy to create but you will know the foundation if it is empty or solid if you will dig more on the project. Though for me, it doesn't matter if a coin or token, as long as they have solid background, solid plans, professional and legit team, real product or services, real users, they can survive in the market. So long the development team has authentic goal of achieving their objectives and not just to grab money, but this will only be determined thru time, not in the early days of its development.

For me, it depends on how good is the project. We can consider it's use cases, uniqueness, active project with good marketing and partnerships. Like for an instance, BNB started from Ethereum platform before as a token and only utility token of binance but the potential is high and look at it now it has its own blockchain with recently updated with smartcontract feature. Also, there are coins that is useless and only masternode coin and that's it, there is no special about it.

According to title, maybe token or coin i will prefer to make investment in a coin. Because from what i see, create a coin is no simple. Must test blockchain there are error or not and because effort to create it is bigger than token, that is why i prefer on a coin instead of token.

Some tokens are better than some coins and some coins are better than some tokens, it all depends on their use cases, the disadvantage of token is they are easier to build and that's why most scam projects are tokens running on ERC20 smart contract

not really. for example ETH, this project was built based on the erc20 platform but in reality until now it has many communities and more and more investors. because the project developer is very serious as well as experts in their fields as well. besides ETH is altcoin with real products and certainly has the potential for future investment. if you assume only on the platform, the answer depends on the performance of the project team or their developers.

From an investment point of view, i feel that it is better to invest in a token than a coin.
My instances are as follows; a token will yield to you profit in no time, quick, precise and sharp profits; then the token may or may not increase in price further more.

But when we consider likewise towards a coin; it usually have long term visions, which after actualization makes the project valuable and price desirable.
But not much coin survive the time, only few

Neither.... I prefer investing in a solid business with visible solutions to a relevant problem. It is most preferable if such a solution or use case is one that is in global demand, this way, there is certainty that its adoption will be easy. I try as much as possible to know if the project in question already has a product and if the team behind it is real and can be traced at least. The passion behind the project is another thing I consider and finally, the kind of partnerships the project has. Once I can have these information to a certain level, I then invest.

It's true that many tokens turned out to be scams, but many of us made a nice profit with many of them. From bounties, trading, or some other way we made a good profit, what we can users do if the team decides to abandon the project and run away.

If we made good profits it doesn't mean it is a good project, not much tokens are existing longer like how coins surviving so tokens are created only for bump and dump purpose with lucrative names,usability and offers.

In my opinion, investment coins are more attractive and safer, of course, because they have own blockchain network, people will be interested because a long period is a good choice, but we also have to look at what technology they use because it will determine the value of the coin.

I believe that the benefit can only be determined by predicting the final result of a coin or token product being produced. Based on this, first of all, it is necessary to determine the prospects of projects that represent these cryptocurrencies before investing in a coin or token. Although it is indisputable that coins are more technological than tokens.

Investing in well-known coins indicated at the top of the CoinMarketCap table is safer, since there is much less risk of losing your money. Beginners can do this too.
Investing in tokens, especially new ones, requires a certain experience and knowledge of the cryptocurrency market. Therefore, there is more risk, but sometimes they bring more profit. Here everyone must choose their own path.

Don't invest in altcoin without knowing clearly how it works.

But if you choose a coin that makes us more sure than tokens, because a coin already has their own Blockchain while a token does not yet, that factor makes me choose coins than tokens. Yeah The active team factor is also important thing in Crypto project.

A project with their own blockchain means they put a great effort to develop the project which the team really mean to develop unless they just forking the coin from another coin. Something like Monero or Komodo which the team is pretty much serious with what they are doing.

Token means they only created it in the platform which easier to create. You can already create a token in ETH platform and ready to distribute.

what determines the value of a coin in the market. all related to how the efforts of developers to make the market can continue to have a high interest in their coins. don't care about the blockchain network itself or use an existing blockchain. now the focus of the crypto-investment market is on assets that are already on the market and have large trades. but it does not rule out the possibility of some new projects will not make a big surprise.

I am of the notion that everything revolves around what the token or coin is capable of doing. Most coins today which are performing well all started from one blockchain or the other with a greater number starting from Ethereum blockchain. So, if a token is worth it, then there is no reason not to invest same is with coins. The only issue I think most tokens have is, once they migrate to their own blockchain or to another blockchain they tend to lose out on their aims and objectives. Also, in the issue of no coin performing IEO other than token, I think it is because the team don't have the neccessary funding to develop their own blockchain prior to IEO.

Some successful projects started from token then eventually create their own chain, it's not really about the algo it's more how the investors can benefit from the platform, projects started from token from a smart contract because it is laid out already and the cost is very minimal for the team, but the majority of the projects prefer to have their own chain after they attain a good reputation in the community.

Technical aside, investment is very efficient to tokens but only for short period of time through trading and IEOs but when they proceed to their own blockchain then thats the start of progress and the real deal. Any subjective thoughts?

In my opinion, investment coins are more attractive and safer, of course, because they have own blockchain network, people will be interested because a long period is a good choice, but we also have to look at what technology they use because it will determine the value of the coin.

For me, it doesn't matter if the project was a coin or token base the more important is how it will be used in the real world to create demand for its coin/token. It should be unique has an edge to the existing platforms. Any project can transfer to its main network later on after the entire platform was developed including the working product or services to offer.

As of now many coin are successful because since coin is the first created to the market and token only few years has been developed.

Personally I must prepare to invest to the coin not to the token because I saw there is more successful coim than token and I really like coin because most my invest like bitcoin is a coin not token but I have few potential token and Im still holding it because I believe to it's potential.

If we are being honest, straightforward and not cut corners; we find out that most 85% investors do not care about the technical know how of any project or its blockchain product.
Most investors basically find out how the listing follows after crowdfunding; participate, and upon listing, sell on profit and never turn back.

And this is why projects struggles, out of the remaining 15% of investors that invested; i reckon only atleast 5 % can wait for full realization of the project before considering selling; and most times they sell at loss.

i put my money i deem it possible fit to give me returns. whether it is token or coin, as long as it has potentials of making a return. i give it a trial. some times it works but sometimes it failed. the best option si to know what you are investing into. whether it is token or coins, if they are short term project that focus on profits and not benefits, be careful to avoid loosing out when they dump in the market.

I don't know much about tokens, but I prefer to buy coins that already exist on the market. Sometimes I feel too confused to buy tokens because not all token has listed on the big exchanges like binance, bittrex, or other exchange. Even if that token gets the listed on the bigger exchange, that can make me confuse to buy because I need to gather their information before I decide to buy that token. But if you buy the coins that listed on Binance, that coin can have listed too in other exchange such as bittrex or poloniex or kucoin.

The altcoins listed at Binance are the best altcoins in this market. So if you invest in them, you don't need to be too afraid of their future. As soon as the bull market starts, I believe that all altcoins there will grow strongly

Not all altcoins that are listed on Binance prices continue to rise. There are also some coins that are listed on Binance even the price keeps falling or stagnating. Tokens or coins depend on their use and the product produced. Investors are increasingly keen in choosing investments and I don't think they are concerned about whether they are coins or tokens

Yes, that's right, now many scammers are using smartcontrac from ethereum to make useless tokens, so in terms of tokens and coins, it's very clear that coins are superior to tokens, although coins also have fundamental weaknesses.

I would go with any of the two, token or coin, it's just a classification, what matters is the project itself, if you believe on the project that it will be successful in the future then you should not hesitate investing to it. A lot of coins now that started as token, just like Binance, it's BNB token before but now it's already a coin because they have continue to develop the project until they reach the big success they are enjoying now.

Doesn't matter token or coin, if it's shit, it's shit. If it's good, it's good.

I mean, don't forget USDT is just a shit token created out of thin air and relies either on bitcoin or ethereum to function.

Get with a good project. That's Bitcoin. Maybe ETH, LTC, XMR. Few else are as good as these coins I mentioned who all have use.

Coins are much more better in my because it not like other projects that have their coins other coin's blockchain. Coins can be mined but tokens can't be. Coin's blockchain can be programmed to how you want. It also attracts investors and also tends to boost price during migration from token to their own blockchain.

In my opinion, tokens or coins are actually the same because the most important thing is the product. Coins will not function or be valuable if they cannot be used as anything and do not have communities or products

That's right, and the things you say have happened often over the last 3 years, from the many scam projects made by scammers, we can all conclude that tokens have weaknesses in terms of being easier for anyone to build.

Tokens and coins do not make any difference to me, the most important thing is that as the team continues to actively try to improve the product and its use is clear in blockchain technology, there is no doubt for me to invest.
Don't invest in altcoin without knowing clearly how it works.

@OP you are right. Most of the coins I have seen do not easily conduct IEO, except there is a strong partnership between te project tea and the exchnage. The reason it is quite difficult is that most exchanges find it difficult sometimes new to integrate blockchains into their system. Some are very technical and would need a trusted person to get it done. Tokens, on the other hand, does not require any technicalities. In fact, since they already have the mother or main blockchain on their system, all they need is just the smart contract address and some other little details and that is all.
All in all, tokens for IEO is cost-effective and there is no waste of time, while the other can have the impediments.

But somehow if coins are much profitable using mining would they be better? I know tokens cant do any mining activity unlike coins and this is something that adds advantage over coins. I like the tokens but some of them were used in scamming so you can spot some evidence of being a fake or scammers on their launching. But there is also a huge factor about coins which is needed computers sometime in order to download their wallet unlike token that is very easy to stored.

The general view, today both coins and tokens circulating in the market are lots of choices, now we just have to choose which tokens or coins have economic value and have a minimum registered market, although not a large one. Normally, most people choose to invest has a name and familiar at market like BTC and Etherum.

This. Doesn't matter, as long as the project itself are going to offer something unique in the crypto sphere and not just copycat.

So there are no secrets here, we should do our research and not trust random people advises.

(1) There could be tokens that are profitable in just short amount of time.
(2) There could be coins that is good for long term investment.

I think that your question makes sense only if we imagine two identical by usage currencies, both of them listed on exchanges and has some market cap, but one is coin and other one is token.
In this thought experiment I'd rather buy token, because I personally believe that ethereum (and other token "providers") grant a lot of stability and makes the process way easier for developers so they can focus on updating their token

You should not worry about it, there is a lot of nice tokens out there even using some other platform like some ERC20 tokens using the Ethereum network. A lot of ERC20 tokens project there got interesting projects since token or coin is does not matter for me especially when one project will be made some upgrade on their project like token swap to their own network, like from ERC20 to their own network.

I observed it too. But mostly depend on major network lile ethereum or neo. If you noticed those IEO using erc20 tokens most of them drop after few weeks right? So chances of losing investment is high, I wonder if there is an exchange offering launchpad for coin and not tokens. Maybe none as of now cause its maybe hard to do some preparations.

But I believe also tokens have interesing usage but cannot ignore the fact that coin type has a little risk of degradijg and example of these are old coins such as eth, neo, ada, right.

So anyway, I applied as a merit source :)

If you wish to take the altcoin/token route be prepared to lose money like anything. It has been seen even though denied by delusional trolls that altcoin trading has lead to more losses than gain. How many of the altcoins performed as good as bitcoin did in the recent few years? If you held bitcoin you would always have a chance at making some money back whenever a pump arrives.

The thing is that in last 2 years bitcoin pumps have been followed by quick dump and the altcoins since they rise after bitcoin failed to rise enough before the dump. So imagine the trader who was holding their tokens to sell at that price just to break even and finally exit that worthless coin. Right then the price dumps and they are back to the holding cycle. This is frustrating for any trader and buying an altcoin just because they seem to have a good team or whatever only leads to this problem and a never-ending cycle of anxiety and depression.

So go with bitcoin at low price and be happy.

To me both are good investments, I would recommend investing in top coins like BTC, ETH could be a good investment while token like BBD will be a good one.

The thing is there are lot of coins and tokens being offered you need to research and do a proper judgement on a right coin or token to avoid loss, at the end it depends on your decision.

It actually doesn't matter as long as the great features is within one good project.

But if there is a need to pick then I will go for a coin.
As you said, IEO's are using tokens and for me most of them are unsuccessful. I am not saying all of them, but mostly failure is at the end.
So I just pick coins for new projects instead or if it is giving me a hard time to look for a good one, I would just invest it with bitcoin or Ethereum .

I don't recommend to do the same for everyone but if you are a passive investor who don't want to miss the crypto hype but are not ready for quick trades and strategies, bitcoin and Ethereum would work for you.

I prefer to go to the token for short term and coin for long term. I thought that both have the same possibilities to gain more investors but investors will be seeing based on the how strong the fundamental of coin.
This is still abstract to me but the key point is about the fundamental value.

The problem is not on the what kind of crypto (token or coin) but it must be the utility usage that offered by the token/coin. IMO the bold statement must be subjected into the usability of token/coin.

It depends on the use of the coin/token, demand in the market and market size. If a certain coin has their own chain but no usage, investing on such coin make no sense. The same goes for token too.
