Basic Questions about Cryptos / How to do basic research?

« on: January 10, 2024, 05:37:22 PM »

My roommate just got hired for some webwork from what I think is an upcoming crypto and I want to get in early, but I am not used to doing research on new companies, and I think the forum is blocking my post when asking about the company by name, so that is not going to work. How do I start on the basic research on a company like that to see if I should invest?

Cryptocurrency discussions / How do you invest safely?

« on: July 09, 2023, 07:40:54 PM »

This is not about investment advice, as such. But I have been itching to start investing in crypto-related projects (coin sites, NFT tech, games, etc.) and have come across a few interesting ones. The problem is, in today's world, handing over money to someone seems about as safe as throwing it from a moving car and hoping the right people catch it. I am totally okay with investments having some risk, I even like to put a bit into unlikely projects in case they take off. But I do not want to just hand some money over to a project and then realize they just ran away with it.

So my question is, how do _you_ invest in projects, regardless of the size, in ways where you feel you are not going to get outright robbed? If I want to put a few grand into Billy Bob's Crypto Cousins Emporium (not a real project...) but do not want to just hand over cash to someone in another country who then shuts down the operation and runs cackling to the bank with what was my but is now their money, what are my best options?

Crypto Jobs & Blockchain Jobs / Looking for experienced investment advisor.

« on: June 19, 2023, 11:43:49 PM »

Been thinking about diving into more complicated investment, both crypto and non-crypto (stocks, bonds, futures, etc.), but I'm not equipped on the practical, day-to-day side of it all. Anyone out there offer services as advisor?

Cryptocurrency discussions / "Backdoor" crypto, how much X??

« on: December 14, 2022, 09:57:53 PM »

I just put some money into early phase of a project that LOOKS like crypto, but technically isnt, so not the same hacks/risks/maybe regulation, etc. Also much more private so not problem people rushing in. Now I think how normal are these? The project sells ownership "shares" in a virtual economy (very like metaverse) and when the economy is stable these shares can be traded like tokens/crypto. Theres more but I am not smart enough to explain. But this seems EXACTLY like crypto to me, but it is not officially crypto. Like trading gold from WoW back when it gave good X.
Does anyone know other good projects that is "backdoor" crypto like this?

Cryptocurrency discussions / How would YOU present a crypto project?

« on: August 14, 2022, 05:33:00 PM »

I mentioned already that we (in my economy class) were given the task of "predicting" what the future of crypto would look like. We are now supposed to create our own "crypto". Not a real one, of course, but go through the motions of "making" the crypto we think will exist five or ten years for now. And we are going to present it to class and others as if it were a real crypto.

The thing is, I always get in late on anything in crypto, Im just not that deep inside the community as I always tell myself I should be. So I have no idea how _totally_ new crypto currencies really get their start. How would you get a crypto project out to people? What would you show them, where would you show it, and so on. I happily accept both traditional and innovative ideas!!

Cryptocurrency discussions / Where to get advice on starting a new type of crypto?

« on: August 09, 2022, 04:49:55 PM »

As part of the economics course I'm taking, we have been given the assignment of designing a new type of cryptocurrency, using what we are currently debating about the future of crypto. It's not going to be something to be sold, just a mock-up and functional model (the course is part of a package with programming and IT business strategies and such), so I am NOT trying to sell anything! The issue is, the field of crypto both technical and economic issues is pretty big, so I was wondering if there exist people or even forums dedicated specifically to advising on how to design new kinds of crypto?

Cryptocurrency discussions / Do good crypto-based games even exist?

« on: August 06, 2022, 02:40:17 PM »

I recently tried to get into the crypto gaming scene, but it looks like a mess. Admitted, I have no idea where to start so I may be missing the obvious, but the games seem to be either scam adjacent or hopeful but not sufficiently competent developers' dreams. I had thought there would be something akin to Star Citizen or WoW out there, even if on a much lesser scale, but it still eludes me.

Does anyone know actually good crypto-related games? Preferably BTC or ETH based?

Cryptocurrency discussions / What is Crypto 2.0 (to you)?

« on: August 03, 2022, 07:26:41 PM »

I'm currently entering the second leg of an economics course I'm taking on the side, and we finally got to crypto. One assignment we got was "how will the NE, XT crypto be like?", meaning what features will the (hypothetical) next kind or generation or whatever have? I already handed in my answers, but I wanted to get some input from people who know more about this than I do, so I would love for people in here to tell me their thoughts on things like...

- What new technical features will this "futuristic crypto" need to have to survive?

- What features would _you_ like it to have, whether they are important for survival or not?

- What problems will a new generation of "futuristic crypto" have to deal with, in your opinion?

Anything else you feel like adding would be great. I may try to run some replies by the class, but I will not pass on who suggested them, unless given permission, of course
