I heard a lot of scamming going on with alt coins
The altcoins and ICOs have a lot of scams. There are just too many coins that don't have working products, just promises. But guess what? They still go up. A lot of solid projects in the top 20. Some on BGOL have made some nice calls and they're documented in the official crypto thread.
It's always nice to invest in some of the top currencies and then look for coins with small marketcaps that have a chance to go up 10 or more times. That's how most of us made a lot of money. It wasn't just because of BTC. Game is BTC, flip to solid alts, price goes up, flip to BTC.
It's $200 billion plus marketcap and only a very small percentage of the population is in it. Still just the beginning. It's crazy we have posts about
"it's too late for me' when the shit was $5000.
Just wait until some of these solid alts have more fiat pairings.
