The ICO Landscape Is Changing
By Adam Sharp on March 8, 2018
When I launched this service last year, I planned on having a mix of exchange-traded coin and ICO recommendations. Since then, however, the ICO landscape has changed… dramatically. The recent market pullback has cooled enthusiasm, but that’s not the primary problem. The bigger culprit is the fact that a large number of ICOs have recently decided to exclude U.S. investors (or only accept big $1 million-plus investments from private parties). For example, on ICOdrops.com (an ICO research site), this is…

Price: $76 Market cap: $522 million Circulating coins: 6.8 million Total coins: 21 million Type: Cryptocurrency Recommended exchange: Bittrex Alternative exchange: Poloniex Decred (DCR) is a pure cryptocurrency play, and I consider it one of the few legitimate bitcoin challengers.

Crypto Markets: Nearing a Bottom?
By Adam Sharp on February 6, 2018
We’re seeing a cascade of selling in crypto markets. It’s been ugly out there. But there are signs we may be nearing a bottom… and that we could be at “peak sell-off.” This correction has been broad-based and indiscriminate. Every coin I track has been affected. But for this analysis,…
RaiBlocks Rebrands as Nano
By Adam Sharp on January 31, 2018
Good news for our latest recommendation, RaiBlocks (XRB). This extremely promising cryptocurrency has officially rebranded itself as Nano. The market appears to approve of the move, as RaiBlocks (now Nano) is up 35% on the day. Combined with the upcoming listing of Nano on major exchange Binance, things…
Kucoin Exchange – Ethereum Deposits Update
By Adam Sharp on January 30, 2018
Kucoin, the exchange we recommend for buying our latest recommendation, RaiBlocks, is having technical issues with some Ethereum (ETH) deposits. Several members reported that their deposits were “stuck.” I looked into this, and Kucoin has a process in place to resolve this problem. So…
Crypto Market Update – RELAX!
By Adam Sharp on January 23, 2018
Last week, we addressed the fact that the crypto market has taken a dip. We knew a pullback like this would be imminent, as there is no way any market could withstand such rapid growth in a short period. The good news is it will be temporary. But bumps like…
Crypto Market Update
By Adam Sharp on January 17, 2018
It’s been a nasty few days in the crypto world. We’re currently experiencing one of the most brutal corrections I’ve seen in a while. But anyone who’s been around a few years has seen weeks like this… and worse. With the gains the crypto market offers, there’s bound to be…
New Recommendation: A Potentially Revolutionary Cryptocurrency
By Adam Sharp on January 17, 2018
RaiBlocks (XRB) is a potentially revolutionary cryptocurrency. And now, in this dippy market, is the perfect time to open a position. RaiBlocks doesn’t operate on a traditional blockchain infrastructure. It operates using what it calls a “directed acyclic graph.” Think of it like a network of blockchains,…
News Regarding Exchanges
By Adam Sharp on January 9, 2018
Cryptocurrency exchanges are exploding. During the second half of 2017, nearly every major exchange experienced a record number of new user sign-ups. The result? Growing pains. Several exchanges have experienced temporary outages or even crashes during periods of high volume. With surging cryptocurrency prices, tens of millions of new…
Crypto Market Update
By Adam Sharp on December 22, 2017
After the run-up cryptocurrencies have had this year, it would have been alarming if we didn’t have a major pullback. This is a normal correction (in the crypto world). This time, the fear seems to be based around bitcoin’s high transaction fees. But in reality, this is just a necessary…
Important Update on Exchanges
By Adam Sharp on December 18, 2017
As you know, cryptocurrency exchanges have been absolutely flooded with new users. Bittrex, our recommended exchange for “altcoins,” has temporarily suspended new user registrations. The company simply can’t deal with its current traffic. If you already have a Bittrex account, this won’t affect you. And I suspect it will…
Update on Props Recommendation
By Adam Sharp on December 12, 2017
I’m sorry to report that the Props presale on Republic went live earlier than planned, and it’s already full. The issuer (Props) decided to launch the campaign a day early and notified its user base as soon as the deal went live. After that, it filled up even quicker than…
