Bitcoin Forum

This pandemic period is very detrimental for all of us, especially financial problems. Luckily I have been working on #Crypto since 2017 and this year I found EquilibriumDeFi to boost my finances.
Regarding the details of EquilibriumDeFi you can see it on their official twitter https://twitter.com/EquilibriumDeFi

How about your experience?

Crypto currencies have been a good way to increase my returns over the last few years as well. The problem with traditional saving accounts at a bank is that for the last 10 years, there were almost no interest being paid. The banks cut their interest rates they give to customers to almost 0% while at the same time increase monthly banking fees drastically. A few years back banking was free for most account, now every bank account has to pay atleast 3-5 USD per month. Crypto currencies are a great way to make back that money lost in traditional banking.

The pandemic has been forcing a lot of people to do their jobs online. I know that you are promoting your project but is not it better if you create an announcement thread to get more awareness and you can also discuss your project with the members in this forum?
This is my 2 cents dude.

This pandemic had caused panic and fear to us and was forced to study and work online.
Cryptocurrency makes easier for me to do online transactions. Also, I experience financial problem but with the help of crypto, we survied.

In simple terms, it can be interpreted as an alternative to developing the economy. In addition, the policies of each country require its citizens to work at home, and work online. This is a strong driver as one of the big crypto adoptions from mid-2020, exploded at the end of the year, and continues to grow in early 2021. Then everyone is already in the comfort zone and accustomed to things being folded online.
to support the economy and increase daily costs, people end up thinking that crypto can tackle the economy during a pandemic.

It's not only that dude but crypto was also giving the more opportunities for people to earn more money through trading and various online activities. The pandemic has been forcing so many people to do this.
So many people can get the help from their financial crisis. It's not only that but crypto gives more opportunity for the people to move from the centralized financial system to the decentralized financial system.

Is EquilibriumDeFi the reason why DOT is high right now? I'm amazed at how much it has increased in price. I hope there can be a decrease in price so that I could get a piece of it. I noticed that the description in the account has polkadot in it. That's why I asked the question (if you're just wondering, OP)
 
Anyway, it has kept me in quite a comfortable position ever since because, with the current happenings, everything is not as it seems, and the demand for crypto is higher than ever. It's just a shame that I have to withdraw my stacks because of the need to stay afloat with the expenses racking up due to the pandemic. There are grants and leeway by the utility companies, but you still have to pay it. It was quite challenging TBH.

My experience might not be as good as yours but I am happy with all my decisions.
First, the investment plan. Instead of keeping it in banks, I put my savings in cryptocurrencies especially Bitcoin.
Now I am in profit but still have no plans of selling it.
I have other coins though like Ethereum and XRP. XRP sold out and Ethereum being sold little by little if needed.
Just imagine if I kept it in banks. My $1000 will still be the same and it could have been gone now for necessities.

The role of Cryptocurrency is actually very helpful where everyone has lost their jobs, even the economy is very badly damaged even though it is not as bad as we imagine, actually the role of Cryptocurrency is being used by everyone to seek additional income from the effects of this pandemic, many people are looking for their fortune in the Crypto world, it is very The severe impact of the Covid-19 pandemic has made many people lose their jobs and livelihoods, I can't stop thinking what about people out there who don't know cryptocurrency, they have to think hard to find income during this pandemic, while they lose their jobs and plus the economy has declined very drastically, of course many companies have suffered huge losses, and of course there are so many people who are looking for work, can we all help them to teach them so they can get money in the world of Cryptocurrency! !

Yeah, during pandemic and lockdowns crypto has not only given people a new tech for payments and transfers but an alternative investment market as well and i think that crypto has now started to receive the limelight that also shows that we are moving closer to mass adoption. Also DeFi which is a product of crypto has provided alternative financial services to people also they can make side or extra income utilizing defi so overall crypto has really supported the masses during pandemic and it has emerged as a winner.

during a pandemic, only crypto can generate large and small amounts of money for users who already understand about the crypto world can be from investment and other activities as you do with current conditions making market conditions even better than before many coins go to the moon and was surprised the price was can high

Crypto currencies will pay important role either there is a pandemic or not; i say this because crypto currency serve as a means of payment; and it is presently being adopted to cushion and put under control the pandemic i.e if you use crypto currency tokens for payment of service; there will be no exchange of fiats; which could spread the covid19 pandemic. It doesn't have to be the token you are shilling, it can be etherum, litecoin , tron or xlm

Cryptocurrencies has been really helpful at this time of the pandemic. Ever since the first lockdown was declared it seems a lot of people went hungry and despite that there are increasing cases of the Covid-19 virus, when you go to banks you’re going to see crowd starting from the outside of the building, and being in this crowd is a huge risk, so I have stayed clear from banks, all my transactions has been online, either using bank apps or cryptocurrency apps. And I have been able to do a lot of cross border transactions with the help of cryptocurrency without having to go to bank.

I guess people who save or leading their life along with cryptos might have got chances to escape from hitting by worst economy situations triggered by pandemic but now everywhere economic conditions are slowly recovering hence role of cryptos while pandemic times may not remain a topic anymore.

i've think that defi really has a good future. i've heard a lot of traders are trading this coin, in regards with the crypto's role in the pandemic i really don't think it has a big role since right before the pandemic i've been into cryptocurrency already.

No questions why this coins help you a lot this is the year of defi and many people really earn a lot from it. It will end soon how ever the earnings give by many defi project helps a lot of many people in different country since 2020 up to this day where most of the dedi project boom and even make a new ATH on its price.

As far as I understand, these project owners recently launched decentralized stable currency(EOSDT (https://eosdt.com/en)) based on EOS. But looks they did not get the expected attention. Volume is $5,798 (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/eosdt/) and the highest/lowest price in 24 hours: $0.9383 /$1.00 (https://coinmarketcap.com/currencies/eosdt/)(it is too much for stablecoin). Will they do better with the new platform?

I'll just ignore the defi that you have mentioned. But during this pandemic, we saw how crypto helped each of us. When you were saving it before, you have a fund that you can sell and use it with a justifiable purpose. Many jobs were lost and many companies laid off their employees.

And if you are one of those that have been badly affected, you were lucky to have something to pull off from your crypto portfolio and sell it in cases and times like the pandemic. With all of those stats report I've read, there is also a surge from non crypto people that just entered crypto and made them realize that this is real asset and money,except the scam cryptos.

Nah, you are just shilling out Equilibrium project.On the other hand about on the role of crypto in this pandemic times then i can say that it is indeed very helpful when it comes to finances.

I do also had some jobs or tasks that do pays out bitcoin which do eventually help me to sustain my living with it.Its not that permanent though but it is somehow make me able to survive this
very hard times.

When it comes to investment then i do make out some trades and do even hold up some coins which i do eventually able to make profits.
Not that much but still a significant amount for me to live.

Many people write that this is a very difficult time for people, it is difficult for them to survive and only the distribution of Bitcoins helps.
Basically, the consequences affected only entrepreneurs who already have money to support themselves in such situations.
And no one has the right to fire you from ordinary government work, unless your office is closed, and mostly very small business projects are closed.

At the expense of my history, I did not feel all these consequences of the pandemic, for me, as it was, everything remained, most likely due to the fact that this did not affect my profession in any way, the advantages of working remotely. Therefore, I don't even have any history here, everything is as it was and remains.

During the epidemic, people sought ways to save their money. This situation aim people to research cryptocurrencies. Ethereum was one of the currencies that increased in value the most. DeFi projects, on the other hand, produced very powerful technologies with Ethereum. I think these successes will continue for a while, so I will investigate this project.

But The Role of Cryptocurrencies in Pandemic Times, I find it seems like there is something that leads people to turn to more cryptocurrency, to look back when the pandemic impacts our lives, our jobs. Personal financial life is greatly affected. People tend to use the internet more, which is part of the reason why so many people know about it more. To tell you more about it, I got to know this project a long time ago, and recently I've started to see it more popular. It would be better if you go into details to it.

Lockdowns imposed in many countries around the globe had opened up to opportunities of people diverting their attention to cryptocurrencies, a lot of people probably due to their daily job and tight schedules don't really have time to learn and understand cryptos however a little research into it during lockdown had made an impact by attracting more investors who might have made a trial and were quite impressed particularly using it to make online purchases while avoiding physical contact with fiat and more of it features such as a store of value will make more investors to be attracted to it.

This pandemic has surely sped up the awareness and adoption of cryptos more than ever. The volatility of the crypto market is evident that people are ready to invest or have started investing in cryptocurrencies.
It has also made people accept the fact that cryptos are not just dark, illicit, or tax-evading mechanisms rather their usage is more widespread. I have been seeing more and more companies popping up and offering various DeFi services, the likes of whom were unimaginable in 2019.
so Crypto played a very pivotal and important part in the pandemic. And I agree with everybody else that the future is in DeFi

It seems to me that during the pandemic, many people lost their earnings. Therefore, they began to look for an alternative - the Internet. Cryptocurrencies have been around for a long time. So they rushed to learn to make money at home. But cryptocurrencies in any case would continue to develop regardless of the epidemiological situation in the world.

The pandemic makes people stressed because many of them have lost their jobs and I see many people have moved to make money on the internet, maybe I am lucky enough to have known crypto for a long time so I can survive from income daily trading and little extra money from the bounty, and also have other assets (BTC and ETH) for the long term

Luckily I have stick into mining for how many months after the pandemic started, and I got a good amount of ethereum. I sold it for my needs, like food and water. It came in handy with the situation we are currently on, especially I only depend on a small business and too bad it closed because the Mayor said so to lessen the possibilities of the virus to spread. Now I am still currently mining and will continue to do so.

Had to sell some and buy some. It's been a very great of help during this pandemic and had to choose well for buying up again at a very good time.
If this continues, I won't spend most in portfolio and aiming to add some more because of those sell offs that I've did last year. Happy to see that my investments in some alts and mostly in bitcoin had been paid off and very rewarding because of the bull run.

Worthy  and just right for those who took risk on saving up into those previous years and regrets for those who had actively spending their coins and dont mind off the money or profit making opportunity.

It is really providing a great help in times like this when it comes to money because out of my holdings i do convert some of it to fiat and make use or buy up something which is important.

I had lost my job but at least i do able to find some job online plus adding my forum works that do really earn me on the sufficient side.
For people who had been engaging into this market are definitely on the plus side or advantageous.

The work that used to be before the pandemic was conventional, after the pandemic everything changed, yes WFH or Wrok From Home has become a real phenomenon, and the most highlighted is about trading, investment and crypto currency, if you have learned crypto currency since 2017, of course this is the thing. it is very useful for you, because the portfolio you have is definitely more, yes and you will survive this pandemic. And me same of you. I was in crypto since 2017, and now i survive.

It is really a freedom thing we have right now, if you came in at 2017 you are not too late, I came in earlier than that and I can say that since bitcoin was first created all of these situations were created in order to help regular retail investors to get away from the stock market and the banks that screw them over and find a place where they can make a profit among themselves.

I personally believe that making a profit here is ten times more important to making a profit anywhere else. Plus if you can build a strong portfolio that can test the time and do not sell, in 10-15 years we are all going to be very very rich, these prices will be tiny compared to what it can be in 10-15 years. So we should all stop caring about if it goes down, and just focus on buying more and more, even after it reached this peak again we should keep buying more.

Please don't use the pandemic for your Stupid Advertising ? The pandemic is a serious case just to use for this Defi Shit projects.

you have been here since 2017 but you need to create an alt just to Voice this out ? Obviously you don't wanted to punish your Main account if this turns out scam right ?

This is what trumps say to you

Anyway there is a lot thing that Crypto does help in Covid and i am one of those who use it to help people.

My experience during a pandemic like this only has a sense of regret, because there is no calculation at all and even that the assets that I once owned were used up and burned..and actually this time is the right time because surely all want to sell assets with low value because of urgent needs..

Nice way of advertising a new DeFi project under Polkadot :). Using Pandemic to be more clickbait-worthy :D. Good strategy bruh.
Just browsed the page for a bit and it is a combination of Lending and Trading.

Anyway to answer it, crypto helped me survive into this pandemic. I still have some income source despite of my other job greatly affected by what is happening right now. I know though that it is not only me who helped by crypto in this times where most of the people are striving very hard to get money.

The role of cryptocurrencies during a pandemic is very huge, because many people are without job now and these people with the help of cryptocurrencies can afford to create income with which they can wait out the pandemic, but unfortunately not all people know about cryptocurrencies or have any skills in cryptocurrency sphere, but I think a lot of newcomers came to the cryptocurrency sphere during the pandemic, because many people need any earnings and cryptocurrencies can give this earnings.

of course this means a lot. when the economy in real jobs dropped dramatically, and my friends began to confide in a lot for fear of layoffs. I am very grateful to be in this ecosystem, where I can still earn income during this very difficult pandemic.
This is an important lesson for all of us, at least we have to have a side job, or savings, or investment, which if can be a backup when there is noise at the main job.
I hope this pandemic will end soon and we can carry out our activities and work as before,

Exactly. It's really a big help in times that unexpectedly came to us. For those who were been laid off in their jobs but had some crypto holdings.
They can survive because the market's situation is very well and at least while taking some rest, you get to have money to spend on if you're willing to sell because that's why we're holding. To sell it someday in times of need.

All of the activities in the crypto based on the online transaction and that's why so many people were loosing their job on their life were coming to the crypto to generate some money from trading in the market.
The pandemic didn't give any impact to the crypto market but the opposite thing was happening when bitcoin was growing even higher than before.
Crypto is the only way to get the money other than stock market. WFH gives a lot of impact too.

Crypto's main benefits in terms of payments and liquidity will prove to the world its best in terms of features. A pandemic outbreak will trigger a regime of social simplification. Where banks are overwhelmed and stagnant, crypto shows perfect excess movement. A painted picture that the world actually sees and the value of bitcoin and crypto going up proves that Bitcoin is immune to the corona virus. and the contributions of bitcoin and crypto to the fight against covid19 should be acknowledged!

This epidemic has certainly increased the awareness and adoption of cryptos more than ever before. The volatility of the crypto market makes it clear that people are ready to invest or have started investing in cryptocurrencies.
It also forces people to accept the fact that cryptocurrencies are not only dark, illegal or tax evading but also more widespread. I see more and more companies pop up and offer different DeFI services, whose choices in 2019 were unimaginable.
So crypto played a very important and crucial role in the epidemic. And I agree with everyone else that the future lies in DeFI

It is due to the pandemic times crypto is gaining 100s of 1000s of more users than ever it could. New people are investing their money on crypto as they find it convenient enough to do everything from their homes.

The role of cryptocurrencies in these times is really important for the people who want to work from their homes as they could deal using cryptos for less fess and faster transfer speeds. Cryptos are saving many business from getting bankrupt in this pandemic period, and they are helping humans problems way better than other things.

The coronavirus pandemic has pushed people to study and use cryptocurrency. Temporary severe restrictions on movement and visiting public places changed our usual way of life and forced us to do things that we simply could not get our hands on.
At the same time, cryptocurrency has become a safe haven for people's savings from the rising inflation of conventional currencies. Therefore, the cryptocurrency began to grow rapidly in price and be in demand.

defi is the main project that was seeded when this pandemic because it concerns the global economy.
and defi to be a solution although I'm not sure it can solve the problem entirely.
projects that have superior potential in this situation should be better looked at.

I believe a lot of noncrypto users educate themselves regarding crypto during this pandemic period. Yes, many are hesitant to touch crypto because of their negative perception towards crypto. But with the knowledge they have now, I believe some changed their perspective on btc or crypto. Indeed, this crisis actually brought positive impact in crypto in general. Look at how much the btc is valued and compare it before the pandemic.

For me, cryptocurrency is a savior in a pandemic situation like now, where all countries are experiencing economic crisis. And also almost all assets
have decreased in price in a pandemic situation like now, but cryptocurrency is very different from other assets. After the crypto price fell in March 2020,
it didn't take long before the crypto price started to recover. Even some DeFi pump in 2020, then at the end of 2020 all coins began to be pumped
following the Bitcoin price which continued to rise dramatically until the beginning of 2021. So I don't regret saving my money in crypto. Now I can
start reaping the rewards.

Yes, you're right. It's allow people to go with cryptocurrencies while they been lockdown. They find a way to earn money while they lose their job because of the pandemic. They learn that there's future in cryptocurrency. I'm sure that those people already invest after they have learn money after they back to their respective works. Yes, there's positive impact in crypto, the price during the beginning of the pandemic didn't not turn down but it pump during these times. Crypto helps holders when the time that they have enough money in their pockets.

To be honest cryptocurrencies at first created is not for speculation, it is vision is for making money is real money, no inflation or what so ever, i believe DeGi is the next banking but you still need to wory about scam DeFi project out there.

Though pandemic brought drought to every human being, increased unemployment rate and caused economic crisis to every country, death and sickness but despite of these we couldn't deny that these pandemic also promotes positive outcome for cryptocurrency. Pandemic was considered as a beneficial factor for the cryptocurrency especially bitcoin. Who would've thought that bitcoin will attain its new ATH at the middle of these pandemic right.

Pandemic situation had a great impact on the whole planet, lots of services and systems, people's way of thinking and ways on working, studying and cooperations. This situation made lots of new comers to be ingaged in crypto for the first time in their lives, and for those who in crypto for a long time to be more ingaged more than in previous years. It is good that the situation on the crypto market are not like in 2018-2019 for example and there are new opportunities in new projects and DeFi direction for acting. And something tells me that the world will not be the same again. We are moving into new pages of history.

I believe overall the pandemic will bring more people into crypto; but we're only now seeing the beginnings of this. In my opinion it's not only because more people are working from home / online which automatically boosts everything that's primarily online. Social Media has been hopping since the pandemic began, more so that usual as people crave their connections with others. While most people haven't consciously put two and two together yet in regards to the economy and Crypto they're getting there. Fiat money has to be handled; it's physical and thus it could potentially pass COVID along. I have a feeling this connection is being made subconsciously by many people in the COVID era. Not everyone can invest right now as money is tight for many people, yet once the pandemic lifts and money starts flowing again -- I imagine Crypto will do even better than it is now.  Especially as it's decentralized crypto has an advantage over many other things, since we've seen incrementally the lag or failure of many centralized and traditional systems that couldn't deal with the pandemic.

Instead of sadness, pandemic gives more opportunities to those people who lose their jobs and enter into crypto market for extra source of happiness. Some of my well known persons enter into these market at the begining of this pandemic and no doubt, they're happier than their previous life with 9 to 4 job schedule. On the other hand, some get themselves into fomo and get proper knowledge about this market after losing some bucks.

Not really caring about that Defi Project you mentioned in the OP, still Bitcoin handled it all for me.
Though in reality I don't really depend on crypto that much as my remote job outside crypto still becomes the main source of income for me, and earnings from investing BTCs is just the side of the dish.

The role of cryptocurrencies is only growing during the pandemic. In a few years, I think that many people will not accept cryptocurrencies for something new. This time will come very soon.

I believe that it was the pandemic that influenced the development of the cryptocurrency market more than the cryptocurrency on the pandemic. The fact is that in conditions of isolation, people began to study and understand cryptocurrency more, as well as invest their funds in cryptocurrencies, saving them from depreciation of national currencies, as well as more familiar assets.

I agree and the pandemic has sped the defi ecosystem as well. Now people are more interested in sending peer-to-peer transactions and cutting the banks and other institutes in the middle. And financial institutes are aware of this change that is why they are widely accepting and investing in developing cryptos.

I think the reason why bitcoin was so popularized was the fact that we started to hate these big banks and wealthy people, that is honestly what I believe was the cause why bitcoin and all crypto became so popular, which means that eventually that grew bigger and bigger, look at 2020 for example while the amazons and apples of the world grew so big, and while tesla made so much money, the world was in poverty and hunger and was dying in millions.

Hence why I believe defi was liked even more, why? Because in most other coins there were "teams" behind it, and with defi it is totally decentralized and gives the whole power to people, or at least more power than other coins. Which is why I believe over course of years we are going to see top 10 filled with many many defi coins and only a few non-defi coins will be there like bitcoin or ethereum or bnb.

Pandemic has a negative impact on all aspects. But for me crypto doesn't feel that, even crypto has a greater chance during this pandemic, all people's activities in the world have been narrowed down because of the pandemic, this makes crypto a more exchange rate where conventional banks are now in a bad state due to the world economy. And my finances improved through the Staking event. I am very helped by crypto.

Alot of things have changed since the pandemic. I have been spending alot of time on the internet looking for an alternative means of making some bucks. And i must say cryptocurrency has been very helpful. Am just speaking for myself though

The pandemic stopped economic activities and the cash flow from securities investment, business investment actually began to shift to another store of value.
Cryptocurrencies act as a new store of value similar to gold and silver, so money flows into cryptocurrencies during the pandemic.
That is the main reason why the crypto market has exploded in the past year.

Pandemic has had a very negative impact on our lives. Many are now at home due to job loss or lock down. Our income source is closing down but spending is increasing. In such a situation, our life has become very difficult. Like you, I'm lucky to be involved with crypto and have been able to make some money from home during these difficult times. In this pandemic situation crypto has given me enough support so far I have not had any financial problems.

I have to say the biggest one for me was the capability of earning money at home without needing to go to work. I have always been a freelancer in the crypto world and made my money that way, which was already something I loved because I didn't had to leave my home and that is awesome as it is. Now that pandemic happened, for the past 1+ year it has become even better, more and more people work at home of course but I was doing it before anyone else and I feel lucky.

Secondly being global, in a world where pandemic impacted every nation, being able to work with everyone around the world instead of only the people around you is a big deal, most people work with people in their town, or city or even state but I get to work with people all around the world.

And most importantly, the ability to actually earn a decent income, I may not be a rich person, but I had faced with countless non-covid sickness this year and many bad things, I was capable of paying them all, I failed to save a decent amount of money but at least I am not in debt and that is a great feeling, paying all those emergency stuff and not be in debt is blissful to me.

Spending is really getting higher while the sources of income is limited, this pandemic affects the economy and most of the jobs are not available.
Yeah right, having longer time in-front of your computer chasing those available venue to earn brings more people inside this market, hoping to have additional source of finances, crypto bring some lift to those who find this industry.
Good for you and all of us who managed to survive with the help of crypto, hope more and more people who learn about this venue of investment.

In the early days of the pandemic, I was jobless and I was looking for another online opportunity after I left my previous company due to problems in the financial side. I thought the economy would go down, especially cryptocurrencies. But luckily I did found an online crypto job earning minimum wage. While doing my responsibilities in my online crypto job, I start to build up my portfolio on Youtube by being a small talk show host. I was interviewing various personalities and crypto companies until today, and also participating in airdrops and bounty programs. I just don't know where I will go if I didn't look for a crypto job or opportunity with a sense of urgency. If I didn't, I would still be begging alms from my parents, younger sisters, friends, etc. Right now I am just blessed that I take action back then.

Some may forgot the cryptocurrency help on the pandemic situations.Many people had loss their job and suffer a lot to survive.Some may hard to fill their basic need like food.Even helping hand help that people with food.The educated people gain money from the cryptocurrency work like signature campaign,bounty and trading.

Though to me, that it's the time I participated more in more project,  so in short, it provides job opportunity during the pandemic era, because no one is allow to go out, with crypto one can either be a trader or bounty hunter.

The pandemic really put a lot of people to various challenges which were all in terms of money because bills needs to be paid, but for those in the crypto space, cryptocurrencies paved way for everyone in various dimensions as people who are good in trading took it more serious, airdrops, bounty and so on, so in all terms and ramifications, one can say that crypto really helped out in one way or the other during the worst days of the pandemic.
In the same way, new people also learnt more about crypto, it's potentials and all, in one way, this can also be said to add to the growth of the crypto space. At least now, a lot of people now knows that crypto has come to stay and will only keep getting interesting.

Not only crypto gives us a job opportunity, a lot of online jobs now are available but we are getting hard to get those job for certain requirements that we are not fit to it. Good thing there is a crypto that welcomes everyone no matter who we are and no such college degree needed. This is the greatest opportunity that can't be ignored. Coz even the pandemic continues, we are not worried about our financial status. As long as this will exist and we are good in here, everything will be fine.

Most of the people it helped from the money they invested last year are now able to make a profit. from an economic point of view,
people who invest in the cryptocurrency market will certainly benefit from investing nowadays. and I am pretty sure that in the future when people are now interested in investing will provide a sizable return. The pandemic has made many people lose their jobs

This pandemic has greatly affected our economy.
 You know, The epidemic greatly affected the economy, some companies had to close. And we're unemployed. But thanks to me investing a little cryptocurrency, my life is fine and not affected much.
I can work with the computer without a company, which is very convenient.

Fortunately crypto markets trade stable and stronger among pandemic issues which resulted in easy money making option for many people in this covid times. Not just for the people who invested earlier and waited for boom but for the traders who started just after losing their day job also, crypto market provided very good income stream, thanks to strong bull run after bitcoin's 3rd halving.

I watched some of covid specific coins and tokens and some were created to collect donation etc. but all of them turned scam and shit projects over the time but old and reputed coins continues with their marvelous run to get good returns for all investors and traders.

Cryptocurrencies have helped many people become rich thanks to the shifting of assets around the world to cryptocurrencies. During a pandemic, cash flows from actual trading were drawn and transferred to gold, silver, stocks, foreign exchange and cryptocurrencies.
The cryptocurrency market is still young and new, so the growth opportunities are increased as the cash inflow becomes larger, so during the pandemic, the market capitalization has tripled compared to the total ATH market in 2017.
I believe that with the wide acceptance of investment companies and institutions around the world, cryptocurrencies will grow and expand their capitalization to hundreds of trillions of dollars.
During the pandemic, cryptocurrencies helped many people to become rich.

The pandemic has paralyzed various field, One of those affected is the economic sector, limited movement of people of course reduces their income, thus making some people have to do work online, The Covid-19 outbreak that has attacked various sectors, especially the economy, has had its own impact on the performance of cryptocurrency especially Bitcoin. although cryptocurrency performance is not always smooth, but public trust is increasing in cryptocurrency. Now cryptocurrencies especially bitcoin are in the limelight, the trend that is shown to be always up makes some people still entrust their money to invest in cryptocurrency when the corona strikes.

This is one of the most overlooked benefits of Bitcoin, people forgot about it,,, that this is freedom to use money independently. p2p money like it was first proposed. Before, you had to use PayPal which of course didn't support everyone (and still needs bank or card attached).

This is the true enabler of freelancer economy! No one to block your account or say you can't use the network:)

To be frantic, some things are just blessing in disguise when they eventually happen. The pandemic was almost causing the collapse of all activities, both online and offline. This was seen to affect crypto, Bitcoin and the likes at the initial stage, but at a point, almost everyone switched to investing in crypto, including those that envisaged bankruptcy.

cryptocurrencies sure are one of a way out to solve our financial issues in this pandemic. I can see one of the reasons why that the popularity of cryptocurrencies increasing because we're in pandemic states right now where people can't go out, people got fired, etc that makes them tried to find another alternative to gain some money. We don't need to go out from the home to gain some cash and it's answering our needs in this pandemic state. More people joining, more hype for crypto sphere, more risk there but more we can gain.

Crypto help me a lot in this pandemic time. I can earn more money from this field, i'm doing bounty / daily trading and in this pandemic time crypto rise so high and almost all big coins reach their ATH. Especially for everyone who struggle to earn money in real life, crypto save their life.

I haven't seen equilibrium on any exchange and after I checked the Coinmarketcap Equilibrium, I finished doing the ICO. can you give me an exchange for buying and selling the Equilibrium ?

The current pandemic situation has had a very detrimental effect on our daily lives. Thousands of us have lost our jobs. Many financial institutions in our country have closed down. Everyone has suffered financially as a result but I have been involved in cryptocurrency since 2018. So I managed to get over it. I invested some of my money in cryptocurrency 3 months ago. I have almost doubled my profit from there. I am very lucky that I am associated with cryptocurrency.

I don't understand whether crypto really played a role during the current pandemic.
when a lot of despair with a lot of closed jobs, maybe looking for income from crypto is a little bit of a solution. but it can't be done easily for people who are new to crypto.
but in reality, when some of the global markets is experiencing decreasing economic problems. but in the crypto market, we can see the start of a rally that actually started when this pandemic began to worry.

All I could find when I researched is this...

It's one of those projects where you trade them on their website. It's not even on Uniswap yet, may you could find someone whose ready to sell on their telegram channel but it's risky.

I find the OP's words more like a PR stunt than genuine concern in the pandemic but I would say that crypto has been the savior of many in these tough times.

indirectly the pandemic is actually causing panic and considerable losses for everyone around the world, but try to take the positive side as it is today because with this pandemic people are starting to turn to crypto to start their new business and without realizing the growth of the crypto world has gotten bigger since the onset of this pandemic.
because they started experimenting with something related to crypto and started wanting to try things like this too.
I think a lot of people have depended on crypto since the pandemic hit the world. maikin more and more and the dependence increases too

I believe crypto has really saved a lot of people in this difficult season. when our movements are restricted and many jobs are closed crypto seems to be a solution when everything can be done at home.
During the global pandemic, we can see that the price of stock investment continues to decline. many stock investors have also moved into the crypto market. that means they get a way of earning from other means provided by the crypto market.

I must admit that I am the one of those people who found another earning opportunity along with crypto trading after pandemic. Due to some reasons when I was unable to continue into my regular job, I decided to start crypto trading as I have some experience in trading field which fortunately supported me to live my life peacefully even in this pandemic times.

Not just traders but investors also moved into crypto platform which must be the reason why we have sustaining and continuously increasing crypto markets even in the times of pandemic.

this time of pandemic forces people to work harder to sustain their economy. one of them is me, I was introduced by my friend about crypto investing in mid-2019. and until now I have felt the results, even though on a small scale, but they have greatly helped my economy during this pandemic. After I felt the results of this crypto investment, I invited some of my friends who were also affected by this pandemic. and they are also happy about what this crypto investment has resulted because it really helped stabilize their economy during this pandemic.

This pandemic everyone are willing to indulge and maximize every opportunity there is just to sustain their lives. Thus many people started acknowledging and trying crypto world since the pandemic.

Some people know about crypto before the pandemic, crypto has become a relatively good fulcrum for them, at least they have an extra source of income at home in a chaotic social landscape but for some people who have known about crypto lately, the role of crypto really stresses them when their money is here and difficult to move due to their fundamental mistakes. But you still say correctly that the time of the pandemic has moved many members from stocks and embraced a new opportunity such as crypto, which could be the reason for the feats of the crypto market.

It wasn't just people who wanted to get involved with crypto, obviously that played a big role in this but that doesn't mean that it was the only thing that mattered, it just means that we are talking about something that included millions of people who are new to crypto and had a bit of money to invest and that is a good start, that is a good base to build before you skyrocket.

However biggest news came from companies, tesla, elon in general, microstrategy, grayscale, paypal and many others like that started to buy bitcoin in hundreds of millions even in billions of dollars. That impacted the price a lot more not only because they bought, but because at least that much was bought because of the news they bought. That is why we can say that this was a collective deal by people and huge companies to get together and increase the price.
