RE: 5 Coins to Play the Future Blockchain Internet Neutrality and to watch in 2018
Nice; though how about IOTA and Cardano. I think these are the 2 best coins for 2018. Either one of them or both would surprise many in the space. Golem has amazing future if they able to execute their idea or sharing computable resources.
Good luck, invest wisely...
Thank you for this nice comment. Take care :)
I did quite some research on IOTA and I would not be surprised, if somewhere in the future it will be known as the biggest scam in crypto history - I certainly don´t hope so for every investor, but my spider senses are ringing heavily ;) ....and Cardano is an awesome science backed project - I seriously believe, that it may become, what BTC should have been: a stable (gateway-)cryptocurrency to enter and exit from/into the "old" fiat world - nothing volatile and nothing you will make much money with, but stable between 1-2$ and reliable, fast especially when markets are going down.
I appreciate your view but research is not just googling few words and coming to conclusion. What IOTA is trying to acheive is completely different than any other crypto. Machine to Machine feeless micro-payments is the future. Crypto will be volitile as it is decentralized. Look at Steem Dollars; what happened to its price? It's good it gained profits for people but that wasn't the motive behind it.
Cardano is again similar to Ethereum where in they are trying to make a better smart contract platform which is scalable. Similar with EOS. IOTA has a complete new ideas and implementation and has been in top 3 due to it's merits and not some leader pumping the coin by spreading some news. IOTA has true collaboration with multi-national companies and has a great future.
Though invest wisely in this space...
I don´t doubt the vision behind IOTA, I just don´t believe, that the people behind can really make it a reality. I have to say though, that I never managed to withdraw my IOTA from the exchange to the wallet - it just didn´t work. All I heard was, that other people with similar experiences were just told, that they have done something wrong and that IOTA is in the early phases and other justifications. But you know, every other coin is also in the early phases and at least (most of them) have a working network and wallet. I asked, how they want to make their visions true, when they behave in a totally unprofessional way.... So I just watched some days go by and how they were treating their investors ("it´s your fault...") and the many PR disasters (like MS cooperation etc) in just the short time and then sold all my IOTA (with a small profit) and never looked back since then. Nevertheless, I wish you best luck with your investment and of course this is only my view on things and I can be completely wrong (in which case, I am happy for you and other investors, but I will never regret to have sold IOTA and moved on - even if it were to go to 30$ in 2 years). In the end, you have to believe into the projects you are funding - that´s everything that counts...
I appreciate your opinion and sharing it with me and the community. I also agree with your comments. But an excellent opportunity always exists in finding a great project in its early stage. That's the case with IOTA.
I am in IT/Software industry for almost 17 years now and I know customer/client expectations and so we have Agile methodology now instead of WaterFall where in customer keeps upgrading their requests and is a part of the project.
I know; even I wasn't able to withdraw my funds from an exchange. But you should understand why and should rather contribute to the community to make the network stronger. Because IOTA has no miners/no fees structure; the community itself should host a full node to support validation of transactions. How many of us try to add a full node to help grow and strengthen the network? What we care is only about our investment. This is a decentralized platform and if everyone wants to rip benefits them everyone should contribute to the community.
Big companies are willing to integrate their sensors for sharing data and micro-payments. Bosch is a major contributor in IOTAs success and many are joining in. BMW is planning to integrate IOTA sensors too. There are rumors about Tesla too. IOTA is still in infancy and great opportunity lies now with risk of course.
I think understanding a crypto as a project is more important to invest in it. If you have faith in the project you won't bother about the rumors. It's all long term for me so I will just hold on it :). Cheers!!!
Though Invest wisely with lots of research...
I hear you and it´s great that IOTA has people like you in their community! I try to be the same for Substratum, which is the project I believe most in at the moment. The thing with "early opportunity" is just this, that IOTA is already (justified or not) in the Top 10 Market Cap wise - which would speak against it being an "early opportunity". I mean, even if their cooperations and projects work out, there is not much space above. For the Top 3 it would need at least 50B$ atm and this would mean a price of about 15$, which is highly optimistic - but hey, I don´t want to ruin your enthusiasm, since this is what every project out there needs so desperately! Cheers! :)))
