Bitcoin Forum

it is obvious that over 80% of all authentic defi projects are in profits and any investors that have invested in this sector is already in profit. it is obvious that it is also behind the current bull market. a proper observation in the market shows that the crypto trading aspect has been divided. between bitcoin, normal altcoins and defi token which are altcoins too. i think the defi era has come to stay and will dominate for along period just like how traditional banking has evolved and change how money is been utilized.
I see the Defi sector as the Savior and promoter of crypto which will lead to the massive adoption which we all yearn for. 

indeed, and defi project bring more demands in crypto world now,
but if you want to invest in defi type project i suggest you to do your own research rather than follow the hype my friend

Give it at least another year and we'll see if the Defi projects are likely to stay. It's too early to assume that it's here to stay but if it does, those who have invested in it earlier and still keeping their investments from it are being kept.
You're likely to earn more if it does. Why I have that opinion? it is because we saw the ico and ieo phase and defi are still on the early phase of it.

I also think that Defi is a usecase for crypto that really makes sense. Unlocking additional liquidity is always helpful and shows the potential of cryptos.
But i wouldn't say yet that Defi in general is here to stay. Let's wait a few months and then i'm sure that a lot of Defi projects will be gone again.
Only those that have a solid foundation will still be around.

Defi as a savior .... definitely too big words - Defi as the reason for the temporary boom on the altcoin market for sure, but how long - whether it will last a month or maybe long years, it remains to be seen. It's good that after two years of stagnation we have a good move on the market, but do not be under any illusions - Defi is not a cure for everything ... We all want it to be so, but let's be reasonable ...

Just like the ICO days. So don't be fooled by these DeFi projects. Only few of them are authentic. There will be lots of pumps and dumps and I am sure there will be investors that will cry at the end of this hype. So if you missed out, don't worry, maybe it is for your own good and not be tempted with these money-making DeFi projects that will end up in trash bin.

everyone is diving into defi hype to profit. its almost like a bullrun already. an investors doesn't even have to trade anymore to profit, all he need is to lend and can make money out of his investment.

wait til the projects in the past switch to use defi protocol too. we might be seeing more of it after all its a free market still. its aave that has been cheaper yet has the chance to dominate because its lending protocol also when staking is ready, we holder may be able to profit too.

You do want to profit that is why its tempting to dive into defi. I think its not really that too late to jump right into it, the investors may have profit already but I don't think they are ready to dump at all when there are more to gain.

The defi platforms allow users to profit more through its protocols than the trading platforms we often use like binance, this is why I think there is more that will come in crypto. You didn't miss yet, you are right on time.

Is no longer news almost all defi projects are doing well, investors with good investment in defi would have cash out heavily because there are alot of pump this past weeks, and more to come. Defi project will surely make investors millionaires before the end of the year.

You're putting too much hype and faith into Defi though. We have seen and heard this kind of of hype before and the same thing happen, people are saying that ICO is the saviour and that it can bring huge money in the table, which it did. However, not sustainable. So we will have to see how long this Defi thingy could last, or try to compete with traditional banking system to say that it will dominate the crypto sphere and it's here to stay.

Those who bought  on peak price must continue monitoring the market because it can lead into another bull trap, and can make you a loser later on. DeFi now are better than the ICO days because they easily goes up the hype and they profited from this a lot, if you’re riding the trend then you’re profitable now. All the hype will gone, only the real and with purpose project will stay, we just don’t know when will DeFi ends their up trend or a bull trap.

For altcoin market? I would say yes, DeFi has something to do with the current rebound, but there are eth2.0 as well and other new development on projects that pushes the market to at least get to the recovery phase.

But, it is too early to tell if DeFi will be the catalyst to bring the market to the next level. What I mean is that all coins are still way behind their all time high and it seems that DeFi has reach its bubble phase. So once it burst then obviously the market will suffer without achieving all time highs.

I don't think so and if you were watching the current defi coin that has been getting a big pump and then most of the new coins that created in this month and they have no strong fundamental as the social media channel, telegroup were also getting created this month too. Im doubt if this will become the next ponzi game.

Lets' enjoy and also follow this current situation, about the DeFi progress and development right now. DeFi is now very popular and many people are interested in this. Will it be the only hype that will end next year? Who knows? everybody may think about it or not.
But so far, as long as we can control and manage ourselves on how our interest and involvement in the DeFi projects, I think it has no problem. Moreover when we know the exact ways and projects to follow for worthier future. I also sometimes have missed the one, but never worry because as long as we know the ways, we can still make it and deserve it. Just pick the right for you and never only follow the hype. Always do more research before joining in order to avoid the reglets.

I may agree with you.
Yes DeFI is ruling the crypto space now
Yes DeFi is unstoppable now.
Yes many are enjoying this moment.
But this will not last for a long time.

Remember the ICO hype 2-3 years ago? This is also the same with the DeFi hype that we are experiencing right now. Nothing has changed really TBH. This is just like the ICO hype that happened and this DeFi hype will slowly decline. DeFi Pump?? I'm not saying that don't invest into this DeFi coins but be cautious as scammers will swarm it again 100% sure of that.

I've seen threads as early as September 2019 about this Defi thing but no one really see that this could grow big like we have seen today, as billions of money are flowing $9 billion currently according to Defi Pulse https://defipulse.com/.

For others who have join the bandwagon early, then good for them as it created more profit already. But for those who are just entering the picture, hard to see though, looks like it's already saturated and scams could be present as well like the ICO boom of 2017.

I wouldn't call it a saviour, maybe this is after all, cyclical, 2017 - ICO, 2018/19 - IEO and then 2020 - DEFI. It just repeating itself and crypto sphere will always invent the next big thing in the market.

When you are talking about pumps, you have to talk about dumps. Pumps and dumps are two sides of your investments and like two sides of a paper. No dumps, no pumps and vice versa. If you have good entry points and good exit points, you get profit. If you have bad entry points and bad exit points, you get loss. DeFi or not it does not make sense.

DeFi is the same as ICO, IEO, it is not a party for every investor.

I think it's never too late to join the train even now since  it's really popular and I doubt those investors wanted to dump the prices. I mean, those early investors were really smart to get into DeFi and all or they were just lucky they joined early. But don't forget, everything cannot be the same. When it's already too high, there're only two choices which is either it goes higher or the opposite. Let's see how far DeFi can go, can it go higher than it is or not. But it really is tempting for anyone once they sees how much profits DeFi might give them.

Its really true who invested on Defi has got their profit .Myself invested on DIA and made me huge profit .So the Defi era has started hopefully it will dominate on the market .On the other hand we should need to avoid scam ,hyp etc .It can be the reason of loosing our valuable invested money .So before invest we have to research the project .

It cannot be denied, DeFi dominance in the crypto market has been extraordinary so far. Investors are certainly happy with the current hype, with that they will invest in the DeFi sector. I personally also do that, because the potential for growth is enormous. But it is also possible to keep investing in bitcoin and other altcoins.

What you said is right but if we time our investments right then we can make a lot of money utilizing the hype and it will not be a high risk investment at all also. But right now investing in DeFi tokens is risky as most of the tokens are already pumped and those which aren't pumping and are old tokens are not going to pump in the future too as they are not community supported projects and most probably would be a scam to begin with. The DeFi hype is bigger than the ICO hype and is also involving a lot more money than the ICO hype.

Savior? You must be joking. Yes it does help people make money, but scammers also profits from this. Not to mention bug in sc that cause people lost all of their holdings.

DeFi is still way too young. And the recent pump across many alts is caused by BTC moving upward. No way in hell DeFI is a savior, its a product that already exist since 2019 and people are now using it to pump their bags.

I don't agree with the words of the dominance of crypto market, and in my opinion, it just temporary, happens because weeks ago many DeFi tokens have increased by more than 100% and now many have dropped significantly.

This is obviously true. Since than crypto advisors is creating and promoting Defi project. But if you research youll see scam project's is entering defi community. So it is trending now. Dont know how many years it Will till last.

It is true that we must enjoy in this DeFi trend situation, don't just talk about profits and popularity in the future because it is an illusion that is not certain, therefore we will only take advantage when DeFi is a lot of interest by investors and what maybe we only see in two the good and the bad?

But I always control for involvement in DeFi projects and always analyze whether this is legitimate or not. Most of the time, they are just scamer so I think even though many are legitimate they are always creating hype tokens.

DeFi projects are giving a crazy boost to crypto right now but, at the same time, lots of fake/scammy projects are popping out of uniswap so we need to ride this DeFi wave by being extra careful.

I still believe DeFi projects will be hype until 2021, so I decided to invest in several DeFi projects. We must not miss an opportunity
to make big profit from DeFi projects. Throughout 2020, several DeFi projects such as AOA, COMP, LEND, and LINK are already
contributing to helping increase the popularity of cryptocurrencies. Because the DeFi projects that I have mentioned have high demand,
and have succeeded in pumping high this year.

You are right to say that Defi are actually going to challenge traditional banking and is here to stay. They have a huge potential but still we are far from any perfect product.
Not every of current Defi are going to be success. A few of them would be, but with a competitive and changing market, they won't be as profitable as most people who are blindly buying their tokens think it would. And the current price of Defi tokens are too high to sustain. They would go through a correction.

DeFi won't end well, but I am glad for this as it has managed to show us how useless Ethereum was. It was first cryptokitties that clogged that network but it was only for a month or so. Then it was some kind of Ponzi's and miners and now it is DeFi.  Ethereum is done for. Noone is using it besides whales that are yield farming and risking their Bitcoins by wrapping them into ERC20 tokens as WBTC.
It is another ridiculous moment of the altcoin market that has offered nothing at all.

I won't run into conclusions in such a rush.
There are possibilities this is just hyped like what happened with ICO and IEO.

ICO with 2 years or more reigning with high markets and up until now there are still victims of scam projects.
When it all calms down, what could happen?  ;)

As a person who missed both the bitcoin pump and altcoin pump, I didn't joined the Defi pump as I believed it won't last long. But not only  it rose for over a week, it's been holding for another week. Anyone who jumped in early do made a profit. So, the herd mentality do help in crypto market to some extent. It's better to check for trends to become a pioneer on the trend to not miss out any positive trend.

I cannot really say that I am missing the DeFi pump as I am invested in bunch of the upcoming DeFi project, but I am definitely missing the "farming" pump as I dont have my stake in any of the yield farming projects that are currently skyrocketing on the market, such as yearn.finance and its clones. I am ok with it tho, that scene tends to be much riskier than holding already established DeFi tokens.

I don't buy any DeFi project, so I think I don't join with the pump and dump moment for any DeFi projects.
I still prefer to analyze the other coins which have good moves, or if I can not find the right coins, I will wait and don't do anything.
If you decide to follow any DeFi project in the market, you need to analyze more to find out why you should buy the tokens and don't force yourself to follow the price increases because that can make you lose the money if you do not act fast.
The DeFi projects make people interested in following the token by buying and selling, but not all people can profit from the project, so you need to be careful.

This is a big question and as far as I can see of those defi who have been getting very big pump didn't have very strong usability. People were getting fomo caused by the whales have been started to pumping it and once the whales will be trying to od a flash dump and the price can go back again to the bottom price.

People are never ready for this. People are just very greedy and they like to lose their money in all instruments. Defi will exist but prices will go down soon

I am may be only investor who still not invest in any DeFi project. When i realized about new trend DeFi, already Defi projects pumped and who invested now in huge profits. Now DeFi projects is a matter of concern before investment, any time this hype can be blasted and investors may face huge loss again.

Those who are not following the trend can really lose a good profit. But, I know it can be challenging to decide if the coin is really worthy or not. Good examples of coin that brought huge profits to early investors are PolkaDOT, ChainLink, Yearn.finance. But would you invest right now in these coins? Of course that not! They are overbought!

As long as they make profit that's still good and I also believe that the hype will end but not this year simply because a lot of good projects with DeFi is working good just like the Chainlink who started from the bottom and now on its peak. I'm missing some of the pump with DeFi but I'm happy to hold DIA token and I know more profit will come to me soon. FOMO is not good at all, so know when to buy and sell at the right time so you wont get trap and regret later on. The bottom market of DeFi is still far from reality, don't be scared to buy and join the trend.

there are still a lot like YFI coins, some new coins mimic YFI's name, so the conclusion is that these coins will also experience Fomo like YFI even though we don't know whether there is a relationship or cooperation from the team. the hypenya is very high, many people take advantage of this moment.

and they are soon to be dying right?These currency will be on the Dumping situation after the
 Trend ends and those who are involved in the Pump bagged their Money ready to walk again to Look for another Profiteering inside crypto.

Lets Just hope that these people that makes this DeFi success is really here To Help the Market and the Investors and not to help their Own pockets.

Polkadots is still Holding almost the highest reach value not Like Link in which fell 3$ from the Hype.

you are not alone dude, i am be one of them too. missing Defi hype or opportunity doesn't matter for me as long as my money safe. i have big question why each Defi project could pumped more than 5x only in short term, actually it is speculation or really have use case for crypto market.

although they losse good profit but their money are safe. dont ever buying Defi coins if we didnt know the fundamental cause there are many fake Defi project there.

I am a small investor and still I could not invest in any defi project during their IEO. However some defi tokens I purchased after entering their exchange market. The defi project is pumping 3x 5x in a very short time after entering the exchange market which experts think is hype and also encouraging investors to make a profit. Research has shown that many good defi projects have gone beyond our reach where we could not invest.

We can say its true but due to a lot of other scam projects. We can also say that this could be the reason as well of hows the market going down. I am not so positive with all those projects in the defi, some of them are not realistic and only focusing on some nasty projects. I like to think that many of those projects are obviously just doing a quick scheme and no doubt that is happening now. Sooner or later some investors or traders will fall on these scheme.

If already had invested in coins and it has risen a lot then you think then better to exit the positions and book profits before they collapse. Unless, if you are sure about, the future and think that such coins would be worth a lot in coming time then only better to stay invested in such coins.

While the 2017 alt season affected digital assets in several subsets of the cryptosphere, current rallies seem to be, in one way or another, related to the decentralized finance space, especially since the advent of yield farming, which saw Compound’s COMP token (https://tokenmarketcaps.com/coins/compound) double its price in the first week of trading.

Other governance tokens related to DeFi have also outperformed Bitcoin, including Aave’s LEND, which has risen by almost 5,000% this year, and yEarn Finance’s YFI token, which has surpassed the price of Bitcoin per unit at a market cap of roughly $425 million, rising more than 300% in the past month and over 15,400% in its first week of trading.

If you buy Defi coins that have gone up high, of course it can be a bubble for you,
but make sure you can find cheap Defi coins, and hold on until your target is reached

its purely speculation in my opinion, many people didn't understand what the Defi mean and its impact to cryptocurrency market. investing in Defi project and get huge profit already be their purpose now , greedy and speculate be main factors that empower them. maybe in few months or years Defi will changes by other trend .

Exactly, don't buy shit that's already up. Some of DeFi coins pops up just after the gigantic success of Yearn Finance, mostly have absolutely no use case. Buying coins that hasn't pump yet or showing signs of a reversal and wait for it. DEFI Money is pumping so hard and right now most trending topic so we need more careful.

Well, I totally agree with this as I recently bought into a presale which has already risen x40. This is insane and the reality is that this project is no scam as everything is transparent and the use case backing the project is a very laudable one. In addition, it is supported by one of the biggest marketing companies in this industry hence have all the connection to succeed.

Be careful of how you all jump into this pump coins. The dump will be extremely bad. Invest wisely for long term. There are good defi projects out there that you can invest, if they are solid, you have nothing to be worried about. Chill and relax, believe me you will lambo.
As for most of this pump coins also, they aren't having real used products aside from rebating stuff.

No doubt DeFi based projects are performing well, and everyone should take a chance to invest in DeFi projects but invest in real projects after research about the project. This DeFi pump can be dumped if the project is not solid, so I see the various projects that were launched. Now the prices are 5x or 10x from the launched price in the market. 

Defi project is the most profitable cryptocurency Investment now, it seems finally everyone's eyes has been opened to it and it will be on for a while. But I hope they will achieve their major purpose of creation which will make more new investors to know them and join also.

it's not ruling the crypto space but DEFI was getting a lot of attention from the investors caused by the investors can get the annual yield from the defi project. They were seeing defi project as a hidden gem but be careful with the current situation because there was a lot of scam defi was appearing. I have seen some people talked about crap defi in the telegram group.

You must do a deep research before try to filling your bad with the defi coins.

You are not yet late DeFi or decentralized Finance is just starting out and there will be many more DeFi projects and platform that will be coming out to sustain the market and the community, weeding out the bad actors in this new industry is what we need to learn, there are a lot of old projects that are now turning to DeFi and scammers are expected to create projects related to DeFi, we should all be aware of this.

Defi has often been discussed lately, isn't this a little too much? I mean it would be better to wait for the next few months to fully support the DeFi project. Fear that high expectations can ruin something if not achieved, for some reason many of the users here support the DeFi project. Since the economic problems during the pandemic, the Defi system has more room to be seen as a solution to the problems caused by this year's pandemic, even though if we look again at projects with decentral finance there were already several years ago.

Where have I heard similar assumption before, oh wait it was in 2017  when everyone thought ICO and privacy focused tokens would be the savior of the industry but where are they now? The likes of dash, Xvg, XMR etc all saw great patronage resulting to the price of their token skyrocket. Don't think DeFi will too the chart forever, just joy them while they're still be the hit trend because sooner or later something else will replace them.

Don't forget, most of these so called DeFi project are new ones per se but just getting attention because you can used them fir so DeFi activities. No doubt majority of the Investors are in profit but don't get too excited as most will dump when they hype is over, therefore invest wisely.

I'm not buying the idea of thinking that DeFi hype and success is here to stay, before you know it the market will take an unexpected turn, it's better to take profits when you have meet your target, many had same mind in 2017 and they have never recovered since.

It's the project but so many whlaes have used the new coins as their opportunity to pump the price of coins. In fact that so many times people have already made awareness about the possibility for the pnd to happen but the problem was those are still interesting to shorting the market for profit and defi pump can be used as their opportunity too.

I still have doubts, but if it is true that defi is a project that makes the crypto market rebound then be prepared for mass adoption of defi.
defi will be the project that is seeded in the future and each project will make a defi type for the token.
of course with new innovations.

oh so your not an investor ? i thought you complain about missing the pump .

 pumps are still here , its not too late if your an investor and the good part is that pumps didnt only happen on defi but its present on other coins too .

 if ever defi pumps are done and you missed it , now worries because you can just move forward to the other  .

I think DeFi give a new trend to the cryptocurrency, so that can open people's eyes because many DeFi projects now increased.
But unfortunately, we don't know how long the DeFi can still increase because now, many new DeFi project launch, and that can make people's confusing to select what the DeFi project that can give them profit.
We need to search for the project if we want to join with the DeFi party, and I think there will be many new projects which will compete with each other.
At least, DeFi brings new hope for the investor after they wait for a long time to see the profit again.

To be honest I don't think the defi hype will last a long time unless they remove the tokens staking and being in stable coins . But the good things is it has brought the bull market so I am happy .

Projects using defi look really good at the moment, but it all depends on the developer and the team whether they are working hard to give their best to all investors or they just want to take advantage of the project they created to make a profit. so for that, be careful if you want to select a project even though the project has used defi.

They are already making forks of popular DeFi coins. Today, a listing was held on Binance YFII, the price of Which increased by 100% after the opening of trading and reached the value of $ 8,200. I think that this YFII was specially made for those who did not have time to buy YFI in time ))

Defi make new hype for cryptocurrency this year like an successful ico project back then, with lot of defi project get success if you missing the current Defi pump i believe lot of new defi project will born like sushi that pump just an hour ago
But remember a trend or hype always have an end, dont be greddy just remember your target and if already reach it just let go and never go back or see the movement after that

There's no doubt that Defi projects has come to stay in the cryptocurrency market, but I'm of the opinion that its over hyped and this has lead to several persons rushing into the market and it has caused a multiple effect on the value. The most prominent of the Defi projects is the YFI which has made a swift and substantial difference in value.

how long will this bull market will comtinue? I see people starting to greedily buy all Defi coins. I already saw this in 2017 and it ended after 3 months. I am very careful now

with ICO experience In the last few years that was so high and tantalizing to make many people believe ICO will last long and unstoppable, but what happened has all disappeared.
So enjoy this moment if Defi is profitable, before they leave, but I'm sure with a lot of experience the Defi project will last longer.

Yesterday i made investment on MKR an old DeFi project which is trusted and one of the top 30 coins in cmc. It is listed in Binance and few exchanges already. So before investment in any new project specially DeFi, we have to think about that projects whether we are not trapped in hype.

Of course it can be said to be hype but traders are profit seekers so take advantage of that price movement to be able to get a lot of profit, when you get a lot of profit then you can go out and leave the coin because if it's too long there it will make you trapped.

  This is not unreasonable to suspect. I think we should wait a few more days to fully support DEFI projects. If DEFI projects lead the crypto market to a better one, we must accept it. The bottom line is that you should invest in projects by doing your own research without following DEFI's hype.

I think bitcoin will take a lead this year that will even attract more investors to crypto space and with DeFi hype by its side and also Ethereum next upgrade 2.0 I believe this year will be better in terms of adoption .

I have seen it also ,there are many of scam Defi project running over here and there also in Uniswap exchange .Most of the scam project making hype so we need more careful to choose Defi project before invest .

Obviously, this was due to the scammers who took their opportunity to create a DeFi project, because they also knew that DeFi was in a good trend, so they took the opportunity to do so in order to make a profit through investors.

The whole idea of defi is great but it has its own short comings. I understand the boom in the DeFi is as a result of the hype currently ongoing and it has been much of a good business to those that invested as a result but i can not tell if it is sustainable. We need fast rising projects that will help evolve the blockchain financials but also more important is the sustainability.

I hope that your guess about the DeFi project is not true because I think the DeFi project is very good, such as IEOs and ICOs which have started to weaken so that good projects like DeFi are created, I hope many investors will like and can make the name cryptocurrency smell good.

Do not invest into DeFi tokens that already experienced bull run, rather find coins that are attempting to the market, like Radix, Dfinance or Oikos token.

Oikos can be very promising. it can bring 200-300 percent of the profit. The most important reason why it will be so popular is the commissions in the TRX network. people will not pay $ 100 commission like they pay on the ETH network

I do agree with you that the DEFI has come to stay and if they failed to mess things up, I can see them displacing the old coins in the space, that are not really offering anything for now to the space but have huge market cap. I still believe there are some gems still left in the space and I expect them to high great heights

Bull market is relative, some have had good run but the whole space will have its time. Those having a good run are built on ethereum blockchain. If Dfinance follow suit on the same blockchain with wings they could have the same run but Oikos is listed on Tron, listed on many exchange but have struggled to enoy the same ride like other Defi. I also want adoption of more decentralized exchanges

Did you notice that most post in this forum are from members that are carrying defi signature? The compettion for such reward is growing becasue of the sentiment behind the projects. I wish to know how Defi profits more than projects with coin for staking. I never knew I could be late to the Defi party after seeing the market make profits in 100x in just 8-9 months in the year

Can't see any defy project bounty on bitcointalk , where all this defi project come from? Do you know any website where to look at the new defi project? thanks

Those that want to scam.among them do it so well that they apart from the Defi hype, go as far as intensifying their marketing to attract more investors and as soon as they get what they wanted, they are gone. Some even manage to list on exchange to siphon more funds.

And as you noticed, the go-to exchange of these DeFi projects is the Uniswap, because they can just list their token without any restrictions. You will see the common combo today, Defi and Uniswap. So no wonder if someday, this Uniswap exchange will be full of crap and dead tokens, once the hype is over. So don't regret if you missed the current DeFi hype or pump, because more than likely, a lot of these investors will regret spending money from useless DeFi projects.

Don't look for a free meals, head to uniswap and there are plenty of promising projects with cheap price tags. The hype is good until the music stops, everyone will continue the party otherwise. There is no need to spend big amounts too, more you invest the more you will be addicted to this industry.

There are so many DeFi bounty programs running.
Just head to this board - https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?board=238.0
And you will see a lot with DeFi attached on their title thread.
But don't hope that they will really give you the allotment and the amount as posted.
Because most of the time, once you receive your share, their price is already down from where they started.

One can also check the uniswap, where most of these DeFi tokens are being traded and check which one suits your interest best.

Defi projects keep showing progressive market growth, a crazy thing to see that most people never expect that thing to happen. Obviously, whales have those insights and making good money from this. The current momentum makes so well, many people enjoying the market surge but just to remind the risk and we should also be careful of what projects we have invested. 


Then I hope that the music won't stop pretty quickly so those who are latecomers can still enjoy the party. And so they will never make complaints because they lose.

It is true that some DeFi projects have experienced high pump, but that does not mean we lose the opportunity to get
profit from DeFi projects. Because I believe that at least until 2021 DeFi projects will dominate the cryptocurrency market.
So it is not too late to invest in DeFi projects, because I am optimistic that the price of DeFi projects can still go up even higher.

Most of the DeFi projects that I work on have helped me to earn 3 times my profits in a very short period of time. Currently, there are thousands of great projects for you and of course you need to have a reasonable investment strategy to make a profit.

I have enough money to buy a house from my DeFi projects and will continue to invest more if possible.

Me too. I am always a bit of a late bird, to be honest，i don't get to know DEFI until almost everyone else is getting profit out of it. I doubt if i am entering now is a DEFI trap or just the beginning of DEFI's orgy

They say early bird catches the worm. But I do hope that they can improve the defi hunt for real project. Most of the one introduced are just exit after raising a lot of money. Or will just abandon the project when they are done with the trading profits. So sad that major and legit projects have been overtake by these shitcoins.

same here but that maybe because we are busy on other things and not as an investor searching for whats new  .

 if you are an investor and you discover something that is profitable you will prefer to keep it your self at first until you already earn sufficient income , that would be the time that you will got bored and share it to others  .when many people find it out , itl slowly die  .  it is really risky to join late but you can still try .

Your dichotomy is extreme. I think it still remains Bitcoin and altcoins. There isn't a third class to it. By the way, the DeFi stuff is just a trend. Trends do come and go. We had the Chinese coins in 2017, then it moved to lending coins, security tokens, ICOs, IEOs, and now DeFi. The order may likely change again and another idea introduced to the mix. We just flow with the tide. Because of the DeFi angle, a lot of noob and greedy investors will get caught in the rush. A lot will make money and a lot with catch a falling knife. Scam DeFi projects and developers will spring up and get many deceived. Truth remains that early investors in the DeFi projects are already the better for it as it stands and laughing on their way to the bank.

Sure, waiting in any DeFi project for more profit means a chance to fall in trap. Trading in Defi for short term can be good for making profits but not for long term. Now DIA, MKR, OKS can be good for trader whether all are DeFi. Already they listed in coinmarketcap so short trade now is profitable.

Better not to invest in DeFi that already set their ATH way to fast or upon their listing then set record in just few few days then showing some good chance to buy, It is a trap if you will buy that. Better buy projects that have goal or been proven for a long time than to new once that is only due to hype that causes them to be known even their project seems no use.

There's no doubt that Defi projects has been making a good return on investment for holders lately. The issue of one may need to be careful Inorder to avoid falling victim to scam Defi projects which are getting popular by the day. The most prominent Defi project that recorded the highest return is the YFI tokens which is over 2 btc presently.

if you have Pump then let it go, don't join Fomo,
it's better to look for other altcoins that still have potential for Pump, good luck

I don't think DeFi is the savior of crypto and it doesn't really contribute to the massive adoption movement. I rather think it makes the whole crypto's market become bullish with unnatural gains. Look at YFI and all of its copycat and you will see how high we're in the bubble. Invest in DeFi projects carefully and don't be FOMO just because it had some pumps.

Well, only on uniswap, i wish i could see more defi project here on bitcointalk, but if this is the case i will look into it but i will not invest, to much risk for me!

It is very obvious for me as many DeFi projects are overvalued because of the overhype of any project with a word of 'DeFI'. This is not a good sign just like when ICO was a new thing and many people invest in it wildly without any thinking. DeFi is the savior and promoter of crypto? No way. One or two pump dont make it become the savior and promoter of crypto.

Yes the current market pump can be attributed to DeFi but to me I see every DeFi project as a Crypto Ponzi in making, exactly the way it gives majority millions is the same way it leaves many penniless, I would advice anyone joining the DeFi market to trade with caution

It's the focus of big companies who wants to go into crypto. A reason why many crypto startups and old projects are shifting to DeFi. Although not all projects are good, it started a hype which created a huge market movement. Bitcoin's dominance is still goong down at this point since the DeFi craze started. Compared to the 2017 pump, this is a healthier movement since there is always a price consolidation for bitcoin and other alts after some huge pumps. I hope this lasts longer.

At the end of it all, let deFi project don't turnout to be ponzi scheme because of the influx of money being generated out it.
DeFi is setting crypto on fire. DeFi is not only the savior of crypto but also the catalyst of it all
DeFi project is easily bringing the adoption of crypto globally to it's fulfilment

It is possible that you can get in a the new train or wagons as you can see tron recently got a spectula pump in few days and it got 100 +% . Thats incredibe gains. That said I myself ar enot so good of spotting those defi diamond projects.

They are full of scrapes. If anyone can still vividly remembered what ICOs did in the past then could easily figure out the true status of these #defi's. This means it was done gradually becoming same, don't buy into this ponzi scheme because many will lose their hard earned money while trying to make multiplication in their investment or on their trade. Defi projects around the community aren't good for my likened as YAM did disappointed many of my colleagues.

it always happen when the new hype appeared. maybe they just give you some profit once or twice, but as time goes by, the DEFI projects are countless and investors will be divided. some project may won't reach their goal and will become the dead projects that will give the investors a big loss.

Can you make a list of all your DeFi projects? I want to check your list. Maybe I could learn something from you. But I'm sure that you made a huge investment on some DeFi projects. I hope you didn't miss the DIA tokens opportunity. Next year could be the same year as 2017. We still have lots of opportunities to grab more altcoins.

DEFI might probably stay but I think personally there will some work around for it I think the whole things is really crazy hype right now You just need to find a good name to attach and the bomb you are all over the places Maybe we should start using thinks like Monkeyswap,Skywalkerswap,KenobiStaff ;D ;D ;D ;D Want more suggestions Contact me

I am not so sure about that, DeFi is still new and one thing I have noticed about the cryptocurrency market or community is that every new thing gets hyped a lot and then people invest in it, after everything we still go back to the basic, or first old projects that has proven to be more reliable.

I don’t know about DeFi but that doesn’t mean that they are not worth investing, if you can get to discover a project that will blow up in future at the earlier time, you shouldn’t delay yourself from investing in it, because if you don’t invest in it you’re going to miss out on future profit.

DeFi projects got a lot of investors because investors know that DeFi projects are really hyped today, Investors know that price of it will rise more than their investment and it will be up to the investor if he will be late or early to bail out in his investment. Investors on some DeFi projects successfully earned profit by pulling out smart and fast. Investors see DeFi projects as a short time money machine and not a sustainable project that can be in the market for a long time.

All things considered, I thoroughly concur with this as I as of late got tied up with a presale which has just risen x30. This is crazy and actually this task is no trick as everything is straightforward and the utilization case backing the undertaking is a truly excellent one. Moreover, it is upheld by one of the greatest showcasing organizations in this industry thus have all the association with succeed.

The Defi project has higher integrity so far because in the last 3 months we have seen quite a lot of Defi projects that have had success in the Token selling session. In this context there are investors who are lucky some are not.  The defi trend also rocked the market sector as Coin defi broke records with price movements that multiplied when listed on the exchange.

DeFi is the worst part this year. DeFi is not a savior but a killer. How many investors have failed with the DeFi system, the current DeFi price is like a melting iceberg. DeFi is the worst part this year. DeFi is not a savior but a killer. How many investors have failed with the DeFi system, the current DeFi price is like a melting iceberg. I think it takes a long time to stick icebergs in the dry season. No DeFi token price pump after drop.

DeFi projects aren't here to stay just because profit from them. Some of them are created with the intent to scam while some only give profits from farming and stuffs. Most are not reliable and are just bunches of project with no team.

August 29, you start making this thread and think that Defi will surely bring profit to all investors, but you don't know about hype, that's why you should learn about it. And see today, do you think Defi is still profitable?? You think many investors happy with that?? No, many investors lose their money in Defi project, so don't get stuck in something like that

I can see the hate man towards these DeFi projects which I can say the same thing just like what happened before with ICO era where lots of projects had shoot up to the roof
and when the hyped died then majority of them are now in the graveyard and only a few do able to stand up up to this moment or day.Defi is no different and this is way
much more faster than on what happened with ICO projects back into the past.I feel sorry to those people who get hyped and do invest just because they do fear on missing out
or simply a fomo.This had been a common result to those people who do make out investment without any further analysis and a good fund management system.

The fact is that many people are panicked and greedy. Hoping for success like the previous DeFi project that skyrocketed, unfortunately lately a lot of half-baked projects have appeared in this ecosystem. In the name of DeFi to attract market interest, but not completely supportive of that and full of manipulation. Meanwhile, people who feel left behind in the previous moment will definitely be hooked, hoping to get a profit, even though the risk is great if only FOMO.
DeFi is beneficial, but don't neglect research and use the right strategy. I think hit and run is the best choice. As you said, this is very fast, so don't be late or miss a lot.

Defi hype has gone since last month. The life of defi hype is not longer than what we have expected before to be ended at least first quarter of next year.
People were massively going back again to the major coins like bitcoin and ethereum.

People these days didn't wanna waste their money to invest in the garbage scam defi coins.
There are bunch of scam coins in CMC that used the name of defi to attract the victims.Im very glad to see the trend was going back to the right direction again.

Well it is expected that defi hype will come to an end.

They are still existing but the popularity is not the same as before.

Investors are looking for other profitable projects after the defi and probably there eyes are currently on btc due to price increase.

So it's best to shift some investments from defi projects to others? I invested a lot in defi and the results were very disappointing, I thought I should change this.

defi was not interested anymore , i loss some money in defi project and totally regret trapped in hype project. major cryptocurrency like btc and eth could give more profit actually and ofcourse with lower risk than defi project that have anon team mostly. today is see NFT project be more popular than defi , and maybe there are alot speculation here.

Defi projects are missing pumps in the beginning the market was in a good position but gradually its value began to decline defi is scamming projects investors suffer a lot that's why are investing in bitcoin and ethereum groceries next. These currencies are in high demand in the crypto market hype but not too much after effects these are very profitable currencies to invest from defi.

Not all DeFi investors are in profit, many thought the price will keep going up but now they are in loss because they refused to take profit, some people can be so greedy you know, now almost all DeFi projects are down in value, the only hope left is Bitcoin @15k, can go higher over 17k in days I believe

Another thing that can push DeFi price to recovery is Ethereum 2.0 as many DeFi projects are running on Ethereum smart contract platform, but if Bitcoin reach a new all time high this time around 2021 will shine some lights on DeFi and altcoin projects combined.

The push for DeFi is only slight because the influence of Ethereum 2.0 on DeFi will not have much impact even if the average DeFi token uses the ETH Platform, because Ethereum is only updating itself not other Altcoins using their smart contracts.

There is nothing left to miss in DeFi anymore, the price are way down and many investors are in big loss too, I'm glad I went with Chainlink and few promising new DeFi projects like DIA, now that Ethereum 2.0 is here and Bitcoin is surging I believe these projects will skyrocket

DeFi pump is over, many DeFi projects are 40% down and some are even down more than 40%, even DIA that was at 4$ per token before lose value down to 0.99$, losses are certain in crypto world and every smart investors must know that price surge is an opportunity, the only hope is if altcoin season starts.

Really? i think it's just about your strategy or how you able to pick quality defi projects. Some defi projects still profitable like last month. but yeah most of them have decreased in value right now

This is true def pump is done, mostly defi projects these days are down and a lot of investors believe in this kind of project. Also, many are loss during this time of btc dominance since price is down. They only hope for the eth upgrade to commence so that the price boom again. Let’s see in the coming months if there is a change of value in defi project.

No need to worry, time shows that your investment cannot go down or up all the time. Now bitcoin is growing and coins from the top 100 are starting to shoot, patience and everything will be

Most of defi project got a massive hit and are all down,  CZ was right all alone all defi projects would not last long if they don't sustain the developments of their platform. Better to stick with traditional staking with low risk of lossing or assets than risking you money in a high risk high reward poroects like defi.

DeFi project pump and dump is a matter of time.
Dumping and pumping is very siple in defi. As a result
Many investor got profit from defi. Also many investor lose their asset because of less understanding about defi.

The problem of time is a problem that is very difficult to predict so that between investors who get profits and those who lose assets because they don't understand DeFi, it's almost the same, so the dumping will continue to occur at DeFi.

works with evaluation and anchoring gives of helps as pupil stays following customs with daily casuals of business and release of use with balance to gains on exchange as collecting spares of profit that those run according to plan on strategics with users initiation.

yah that's right, obviously the number of people using Defi for staking or borrowing is very low. mostly the sharks shill and fomo about Defi projects like ICO projects in 2017, that has set the trend and so Defi has become a trend in the short term.
As you see, when people realized that Defi was just a hype and the demand for this new technology was lower and lower, they sold off. UNI, YFI are projects that have been sold off heavily in October. You can see the news at the link below:

not sure it's missed hype. it's likely defi  will stay in next years - it's a profitable and sustainable conmcept as for me. truly to say i mostly invest in credibel dex projects like uniswap

Yea agree with u, but at least we have hope that cryptocurrency came back with some useful usecase instead only price pump related issue

The defi sphere has just appeared and I am sure that the defi sphere has not yet fully shown itself and therefore so many cryptocurrency projects are aimed at the defi sphere because these projects understand that the defi sphere is very popular and in demand, so I believe that 2021 will be very good for projects that work in the defi sphere.

oh so u might be interesting in new stablecoin dex - xsigma, just announced and looks credible

Since the increase of many Defi tokens is based on the hype, it will be hard for them to increase again after the hype is over. You need to wait for another hype in Defi projects to see the next pump in Defi tokens. Or if there is a market price manipulation on a Defi token caused by the whales. This may happen if there is good news in Defi. You also can expect that the bullish trend in Bitcoin to bring a positive impact fro Defi tokens as well.  :)

i heard about xsigma - it's very interesting and backed by a public company, i'm researching them

i wouldnt make the same mistake that most of the crypto investors are making, which is simply investing in a project because it is a DeFi project without doing proper research and analyzing every component of the platform.
This happened during the previous IEO pumps too and a lot of crypto investors lost money by simply following the IEO hype.
No form of hype is substitute for a proper research process.

let it go if you miss the pump in Defi, if you buy Defi now then the risk is very high, because Defi is just a hype,
and if the hype ends then you will be stuck in Defi, think about it.
