Our current situation we have right now can be considered good and bad at the same time.
The current price of every crypto in the market has finally shown improvement on their prices, the bad thing is scam projects are still there, and their current number is still increasing.
the current state of the cryptocurrency market is not the same as in 2017. All altcoin prices drop by up to 90% more and many projects continue to come along with scammers that make crypto increasingly shunned by investors. Even ICO which used to be very popular has now changed to IEO, but IEO is no guarantee that scammers will disappear. Scammers are smarter and take advantage of every opportunity available. Just waiting for the chance for bitcoin to go up, maybe in 2020 the market will improve and altcoin will start to recover.
That's why we need to be smarter too in investing, if the scammers is improving in scamming, we investors or traders should be smarter in choosing the project, we should learn from those they scammed as well to think advance of the project ideas if it will for the long term, if the team is legit and the company is registered better if there is a develop product that is working already.
I agree; however, It's hard to outsmart scammers, the only thing we can do is to avoid them. Even finding a good project, most of the time, it still ends up being a scam project.
