no, it all depends on luck. after all at this time no one promised a big prize. different from the past, where the bounty campaign offered a fairly large prize. now the situation is different, there are many who join the bounty and there is no guarantee that when the bounty ends the tokens we get can be sold. so you could say the current situation is not favorable. I'd rather hope for an airdrop or participate in a testnet. it's more promising than joining the bounty campaign.

for the long term, bitcoin is still profitable. it can be said that btc is the best compared to other crypto. but the question is how much money will be invested? this is most important because how much money is invested will determine how much profit you can get later. if the amount is big, you will get a big ROI. but if the amount is small, I don't think bitcoin is the best choice even for the long term. better find another coin. I think ethereum, bnb, solana, Terra, avalanche could be a substitute option if you have limited funds.

however you look at SHIB, it's still a bad investment. as you said this coin is pure pump and dump. so I always exclude SHIB in the best investment list. SOL, BNB, XRP still make sense but not with SHIB. I'm more interested in Terra, AVAX, NEAR, and ADA. but bitcoin and ethereum are still the best, i won't forget these two coins.

finally we come...
hope what Tim beiko said is true, this year ethereum has migrated to POS. I hope ethereum announces the exact date when it will be launched soon, this will be good news for the crypto market. I can't wait for it. this year will be the year of ethereum.

meme coins ruin the crypto ecosystem?
yes, but not only that all tokens are also included. basically projects using smart contracts are damaging the crypto ecosystem. 99% of projects released in the past to date that use smart contracts end up as scam projects, get forgotten or even die. all those projects are damaging the crypto market and harming investors. surviving projects are projects that use a private blockchain. they are actually developing the project and not just aiming to profit from investors.

layer2 projects like Polygon I think are cool. or Projects like Avalanche are also very interesting. Luna is also good for long term. actually there are many good projects in my opinion, it's just that they don't get enough attention, one of them is like safepal, this project is quite good. their platform is not inferior to trustwallet, but is getting less attention.

no, such situation is not only in crypto but in all trading sectors. stocks, forex, gold, oil, and crypto have bear and bull situations all the time and everyone knows this. but the problem is that there are still many people who are not ready to face it. when a bull market is over, they are too afraid to sell and conversely when a bear market is over everyone is too worried to buy. it's not that everyone doesn't believe in other opportunities, it's that they're too afraid to make a decision and it's too late.

CBDC and tether to me look the same, so if CBDC is adopted by crypto exchanges then stablecoins like tether are no longer needed. only stablecoins like DAI that are truly decentralized will survive. can coexist, but I'm not sure the two will be the main choice. but it all depends on the centralized exchange, if all CEX agrees not to adopt it then CBDC will not enter the crypto space. and stablecoins like tether will remain the top choice.

I do not think so. it's just data from opensea, but try to combine the volumes of all currently existing NFT marketplaces from different networks. I'm sure the results will be different. trading volume on opensea is decreasing, one of which is because many NFT marketplaces have been released and even large exchanges like binance also have NFT trading services. so the trading volume is eventually split, the impact for opensea is that their volume is decreasing. that's why I'm sure the NFT hype is still there, because NFT is a growing industry. This industry has an interconnected ecosystem.

IDO and staking are the best choices for me. I've been getting a big ROI maybe more than 100% when buying new coins from IDO. although sometimes there are some that are not as expected, but I'm not too at a loss. I can still sell the tokens I bought, and I keep doing it over and over. Staking is also profitable nowadays, you can earn just by holding tokens/coins.

I just found out there is such a rule in Germany. strange enough, hold at least 1 year so as not to be taxed. but I don't really care about this because I don't even live there. but if you want to ask about which coin has potential. I chose Terra and Avalanche. from the beginning of its release I've been paying attention to it and it has become one of the coins in my portfolio. other coins may be good but the potential is not as big as these two coins.

is this one of the reasons why you think ethereum is a scam?
if yes, you are very stupid. why only ethereum, what about bitcoin, litecoin, monero, even doge that used to be worthless?. all old coins even at release are not really worth. then is it all a scam? then you recommend another coin which is not even well known. you think all coins will be the same as ethereum or bitcoin. from worthless, then grew to be very valuable. looks like you have to study again to understand about crypto.

I think TRX is less suitable for investment, they are more suitable for use. because the price of TRX does not change much even during the bullrun. but I agree with you coins like ENJ or AAVE are suitable for short term investment. and the average coin that is on the OP list is suitable for the short term. buy when it's cheap and sell when the price has gone up, don't hold on too long or you'll be too late to sell.

I don't think so, Malaysia is still not certain to legalize crypto. This discussion is serious, but there has been no final decision on legalizing bitcoin. so it's just a discussion. it could take a few more years to get approved, and maybe in the end this plan was rejected. so I doubt that this plan will be a link for bitcoin adoption in Asia specifically SEA.

the fee depends on the GAS fee. for now GAS is quite cheap at 23-25 Gwei, you can see it here https://etherscan.io/gastracker

and I'm trying to make a USDT transaction for 100$. I see transaction fee -+15$ with 25 gwei. this is quite cheap when compared to yesterday when GAS fee was very high it could reach 90-100 gwei. but when compared to other networks, erc20 is still very expensive.

Are you sure?
Have you ever thought that the bullrun wouldn't start before bitcoin went up. so if you believe bitcoin is not profitable then the whole market is not profitable anymore. Coins that you think are very good and have great potential because they are newly released will not develop because the market is no longer profitable. So basically your thinking about bitcoin's golden age is over is wrong.

can never be removed. visa, mastercard and others contribute to the government. so if they all disappear, the government will lose their income. and they will make every effort to keep them in use. one of them is limiting the influence of crypto. So crypto replacing credit/debit cards is just a dream and will never become a reality.

their main problem is dealing with frequent network outages. but I think it can be worked out in the future, and I'm sure they're trying to work around that. So if asked if SOL has a future, I think yes. they have a future, maybe among other blockchain network projects SOL has a better future.

most likely this is a trap. the past few weeks our focus has been on russia-ukraine to the point of forgetting that the FED will announce a rate hike in a few moments. You know if this goes according to people's expectations there should be a negative effect because of this, but in fact the price of bitcoin is strengthening. so I think it's like a trap before the crash.

what is to be expected from all of that, isn't it from the start that games like that were made just for the sake of profit. so there are no long term plans to keep the game popular. when the hype fades, the early investors will start to leave it and there will be no new users wanting to play because the game already looks unprofitable.

all crypto games look the same. and what's even more bullshit is that they always use the "metaverse" to look innovative. even though their game looks boring. if from the start they wanted to focus on making good games, without the metaverse frills, there should be lots of concepts/genres they could choose from and develop.
