Damn...was just composing a 'Yay...post 4000' post and you beat me to itYour friendly neighbourhood VirtualMonkey - Not giving financial advice since...well...ever. -
precisely and if you read the E&Y document which I posted above this is what they are sayingOriginally posted by scooterscot View PostThe accessibility of ICO's compared to IPO's is making investment to everyone ridiculously easy. Of course there's a lot of guff out there. Amongst them, however, is the new Facebook or Google.
Anything that involves fast trading, low fees, and decentralised exchanging is a win in my book.
ICO is now actually filling that gap that the AIM market used to fill, except these days the AIM market has been so abused as a quick way onto the SE that to get onto aim you've got to be a 250million company
so ICO's are now providing AIM style access to capital for smaller companies
and that's why it is clear to see that ICO's need to be bought into the mainstream, regulated like a less regulated public company, eg like AIM, or the other newer markets around the world, tradeable on these mainstream exchanges and with proper market makers and proper compliance and regulation and reporting and this is where it will go

Also anyone can invest in them for a very low amount. Not unlike crowdfunding - it's basically the new crowdfunding. Although potential massive future companies that can be invested in by non-sophisticated investors.Originally posted by milanbenes View Postprecisely and if you read the E&Y document which I posted above this is what they are saying

and just imagine, when ICO's/coins will be regulated and accessible on the bricks and mortar exchanges
then the coins will be accessible to everybody

BTC could be breaking support... Very impressed with ETH these last few days I must say"Is someone you don't like allowed to say something you don't like? If that is the case then we have free speech."- Elon MuskComment

Can see lots of demand around $9200.Originally posted by Jog On View PostBTC could be breaking support... Very impressed with ETH these last few days I must say
ETC and Dash are looking bullish at the minute too. Impressive how, compared to BTC, their $ value has not changed much.
XRP looks like it might spring upwards if it hits the dollar mark. Seeing a few predictions suggesting $5 by the end of March. Don't know about that.
LTC - what's happened to LTC? No demand whatsoever."Never argue with stupid people, they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience". Mark TwainComment

Sorry, didn't even spot the thread's post count.Originally posted by VirtualMonkey View PostDamn...was just composing a 'Yay...post 4000' post and you beat me to it
Bitcoin 'getting hammered' again. News of India's budget denouncing bitcoin but supporting blockchain being taken as 'bitcoin is banned'.
Oh well, buy the dips.
Unless it's a drop due to other fears such as the ongoing Tester 'scandal'.
Maybe tomorrow, I'll want to settle down. Until tomorrow, I'll just keep moving on.Comment
