This year I have started my crypto journey and I am really glad about this. Crypto market has opened to me a lot of opportunities. This year I got to know how to do research and how to understand if this projects is worth investments or not. Also I got to know that we shouldn't be greedy like you said and lock-in profit. I am going to develop in this sphere and expand my knowledge about crypto.

I would rather your paid attention to trendy things such as metaverse, NFT-projects and alternative chains. In terms of metaverse, you can consider such tokens as Mana and Sand. Also you should follow news and maybe you will find a new project with a good potential. In terms of alternative chains, you should think about Polkadot, Solana, Near and other chains that are developing their ecosystem.

On the one hand, I see that it is possible for Ethereum to overtake Bitcoin as it is more innovative and it is capable of performing much more functions than Bitcoin. On the other hand,people trust Bitcoin more than any other currencies, they use it not only as investment,but also as a means of payment, so I it gains more and more popularity within time. The question is whether this tendency will continue or not.

Trading is not my main occupation so I just need to swap tokens time to times so as to invest them in a staking platform or yield farming, so I am used to using just some decentralised exchanges such as Pancake swap where you can find many new projects on Binance smart chain, quick swap, just swap (tron chain), sushi swap, Uniswap. None of this exchange gives an opportunity to exchange to fiat, but they are ideal for crypto changes.

I have seen recently a new road map of ethereum and it was said that developers are planning code chunking+ gas cost updates. I know that by switching to a Proof-of-Stake, the problem of scalability it means speed and cost of transactions must be solved. As for now, I don't work on ethereum because of high fees so I had to switch to alternatives such as Polygon, Binance smart chain and tron.

I bet for projects that are connected with metaverse, games or are native tokens of alternative chains, so I continue holding Matic, BNB, Solana, Near, Sand. I think that there will be new projects with new features, so I am still not sure what I will invest in then, so we need to to be up to date and follow all news so as not to miss a new hype on the market.

It is better to have at least a small part of Bitcoin than not to have it at all, but actually, you should enlarge your portfolio. Try to invest 10% of your salary every month and this way you will have more Bitcoins within time. Also you can try some other methods of working on crypto market so as to increase your capital and then part of it invest in more conservative bitcoin while the rest of your capital you will be able to invest in something more risky.

One more thing that prevent Eth from becoming the most popular and valuable cryptocurrency is its hard cap. Bitcoin is limited and it gives additional value to it, while ethereum is unlimited. But actually, I think that ethereum will overtake bitcoin one day as it is more dynamic. Bitcoin is updating once in 3 years while Ethereum's team is constantly developing it. I think that ethereum 2.0. will reduce gas fees and it will become the biggest currency then.

That's true that we should return to fundamentals. If you are a long-term investor, you should pay attention to the technology first, but if you are a short term trader, hype is more important. Hype can't last for a long period of time, so if you take some projects to hold then, they should have something really fundamental under them so as to be in demand in the future.

I follow Polygon and I invest in different defi-projects on it. I know that it has a big NFT-ecosystem and it is developing very rapidly. For example, Polygon has announced a new second-level solution for Ethereum based on ZK-Rollups technology, so it doesn't lag behind the time. There are many users as it offers the smallest commissions from all chain, personally I hold matic for a long term.

Binance is banned in some countries, so it may be inaccessible for you. Nevertheless, binance is not the only options, you can use other exchanges or peer-to-peer platform to buy BNB, but note that you need to withdraw BEP-20 or you need to use bridges so as to transfer BNB on Ethereum to BNB on Binance Smart chain. Personally I use Best Change for this purpose.

As for good wallet, I can recommend you trust wallet as it supports a wide range of coins and it can be connected to a cold wallet. Also trust wallet is compatible to many web-sites so it is user-friendly.
One more wallet is Tron link, but is supports only TRC20 tokens (tron chain). I like it because it has many useful functions and it uses a cheap chain, so transaction fees are low and you can swap just in this wallet.

In terms of long-term investment, utility is certainly more important as hype can't goes too long while utility means everything in a long run as if this project is used by people, the price has a support. On the other hand, if you are a short term investor, you can just trade on news and follow hype, but don't buy trendy coins for the long-term as hype will end one day.

Currencies that have real use-cases and are popular around the world are more likely to rule the world as they can be useful for people. In terms of meme coins, I wouldn't recommend to anybody to invest in them. Meme coins don't have anything innovative or unique, they don't have real projects under them that are aimed to develop technologies so you invest neither in idea nor in technology.

I think that trends will not change in the nearest future, so you had better keep your eyes on native tokens of alternative chains such as Avalanche, DOT, Near, Fantom, and on coins that are connected with metaverse. Also I think that there will be new projects from these spheres so just be up to date and you will find new projects that will be successful in the future.

Actually, you don't see any real value of NFTs as they are used only for entertainment. Nevertheless, I know that digital art and games are not its limit. Non-Fungible Tokens are going to be used for tokenizing physical assets, different documents and even ideas. I know some projects that are adopting NFTs for real use-cases, but now they are on development stage so we are just to follow recent news.

In my country trading and investing in crypto is legal so I know a lot of government workers who also have income from crypto. But if we are talking about blockchain developers, all of them work in private companies, as the government in my country don't consider crypto as a good economic tool for refinancing loans or means of payment.

I also consider NFTs to be a promising sphere. Nowadays NFTs are mostly associated with entertainment such as gaming and digital art, but it is not its limit because Non-Fungible Tokens (ERC721) can be used for transferring and storage of information and different documents. NFTs can be used wherever there are different lists and registers. Everything from the real world can be tokenized and sold through blockchains.

Every account has its own private key. So as to get it, you should export it on your metamask on computer and then plug them on your phone. Only the main account (the first account) is being pugged automatically as the seed phrase of wallet is connected with it. So as to connect other accounts, you have to know their private keys.

I think that those coins that remain on the dip even during altcoin season, will not pump any more. Now all good projects are on highs and all outsiders will not pump any more I think, as they have not made it now.I am not aware of Reddcoin, PIVX and Neblio. And I think that maybe they were popular some time ago, but as they were abandoned by investors, there are no people who are interested in them any more.
