Last year was a good year for me trading the crypto market and one of the reasons that made this possible was the use of the right exchanges . I have tried different exchanges during my years of trading and i have dropped a number of them ,but the few that I still use are Bitget and Binance . Binance has always had the upper hand as the largest crypto exchange globally but bitget showed impressive growth rate in their user base from 20M in January to 100M by December a 400% increase, making them the second largest exchange by userbase .This level of growth reflects trust and their solid track record of zero security breaches.
Aside the increase in their user base their native token BGB also delivered a 10x return, hitting an ATH of $8.48, thanks to their first major burn of 800M tokens, reducing supply by 40%. It is no surprise they ranked top 15 cryptos by market cap in 2024.
In comparison, Bybit also expanded, its user base by around 80% in 2024, while OKX saw a 50% increase. However, in terms of value return, neither of their native tokens performed as well as BGB. The rapid expansion of these exchanges shows how competitive the industry is becoming, and it will be interesting to see how 2025 unfolds.
What is your take on their growth? Let’s interact

Stablecoins don't get as much attention as most cryptocurrencies as many don't see any profit potential in holding stablecoins but some stablecoins have changed this narrative. USDS which is a stablecoin is quite different from others. From doing some research on it I discovered that USDS holders can earn rewards through Sky Token Rewards, where supplying USDS to the Sky Token Rewards module grants SKY governance tokens over time. You can check it out here https://sky.money/. This can be a great way to hold your profits when the bear market comes as you continue to make profits while holding the stablecoin. I am now curious to know how many stablecoins offer this. Having more than one can help with comparison. Kindly share if you have come across any others, and also what your thoughts are. Instead of using this method, I rather keep my money in bitcoin and other notable altcoins like XRP, Solana, XLM and others. These might be volatile but I know that my money will not disappear because staking is done in centralized exchanges which if anything happen to the exchange, you lose everything you have in there. The profits from staking my money in such a system is not worth the risk because in business, you have to properly access the risk while making your business decisions. That is a valid point and I respect your approach. Bitcoin and altcoins like XRP and Solana are solid picks for those prioritizing control, even with the volatility. While I see the appeal of staking with USDS due to its transparency and non-custodial nature, I agree it comes down to my personal risk tolerance. What is your outlook on Solana and XRP this year? Would love to know your target

Stablecoins usually don’t get much attention because they are seen as “safe,” but USDS is definitely changing the game. It is not just a stablecoin to hold your funds, it is actually a way to grow them. I checked out the link you sent and saw the Sky Savings Rate gives you even better yields than the old Dai Savings Rate. What really stands out for me is the real-time proof-of-reserves it is refreshing to see that level of transparency and the fact that it is non-custodial is mind blowing. Plus, upgrading DAI to USDS is super easy at a 1:1 ratio through Sky Money, and you can trade it against other tokens like USDC and ETH without hassle. It is also great to see that USDS is listed on major exchanges exchanges like Bitget and Upbit. Well to answer your question there are a few like LUSD,USDD, sUSD but USDS still standout as the best amongst them What do you think about the ones i mentioned?

Speaking of Altcoin, we need to see the great opportunity, in the market in general the AI category has become excellent lately its demand for enthusiasts is quite a lot to cause a category that is quite heated among successful new projects, seeing that Ava is indeed quite unique and has a function as AI , but we also need to see that there is a much better performance in the AI Coin at this time, and in my opinion see what actually needs the market for this AI category so that the possibility of demand is also large in the altcoin, like AI that can help analyze the chart Or conduct technical research on a project that relies on many protocols and media information.
I totally agree with you , the AI category in crypto is has definitely gained significant recognition. While many AI projects focus on data, AVA takes a unique approach by creating interactive, audiovisual agents that bring digital assets to life. Its partnerships with Pudgy Penguins and L'Oréal, shows less about pure analytics and more about redefining how we engage with digital assets. If Holoworld continues to innovate, AVA could complement other AI tools while carving out its own niche. As AVA becoming more accessible to the community it is already listed on some exchanges like Bitget, MEXC and HTX

Last year, the TON ecosystem gained recognition as a fully L1 decentralized blockchain for web3 users due to its easy onboarding process and zero fees. However, it has become saturated with below-par "tap-to-earn" projects that likely won’t last the next two years. I made a post on X some time ago about the types of projects on TON and emphasized the need for more innovative projects to build on the platform—rather than just "tap-to-earn" ventures—if the blockchain is to gain recognition comparable to SUI and Aptos. This year seems promising for that shift, with projects like Duckchain leading the way. it's the first Telegram consumer layer with AI integration, has raised $5 million with backing from the likes of DAO5, Gate, and others. https://x.com/Duck_Chain?t=7uiOdh-3JivCCf_jwraiZg&s=09Personally, I believe these are the kinds of projects that should build on TON to help the ecosystem thrive and compete. What do you think? I completely agree with your perspective! TON’s potential has been overshadowed by the influx of tap-to-earn projects, which don’t add much long-term value. I went through your post and found out about their event https://www.bitget.com/events/candy-bomb , where users can earn DUCK tokens by depositing or trading. As always I will always encourage everyone to do their research and make informed decisions

As someone who have been active in Web3, I have always been cautious about scams and risky transactions. That is why I am excited about GoPlus Security, a project that is redefining Web3 safety.
GoPlus delivers real-time protection for tokens, NFTs, wallets, and dApps. One standout feature is its multi-chain transaction simulation, which allows users to assess potential risks before executing transactions something every DeFi user can benefit from.
With support for over 30 blockchains and millions of daily security checks, GoPlus has proven itself as a reliable security layer for Web3. The platform’s GPS token adds further utility with staking rewards and security fee payments, making it a robust ecosystem for safer blockchain interactions.
Web3 needs solutions like GoPlus to create a more secure and user-friendly environment. This is the next step toward mass adoption and I am all in. What is your take on it? Let’s discuss!

It came as surprising news to me that, starting January 12, Bybit has decided to suspend all of its services for users in India, citing regulatory compliance issues. In their words " Due to recent developments from Indian regulators and in continuation of previously implemented restrictions. Indian users will temporarily be unable to open new trades or access any products on the Bybit platform.”" https://cointelegraph.com/news/bybit-suspends-crypto-trading-india) While this situation unfolds, I’d suggest finding a reliable and compliant exchange with good Proof of Reserves (PoR) and protection funds that cater to users' needs. How’s it going with WazirX though? By the way, I’m concerned about this development. Do you think this suspension could be prolonged? I hope you have a suitable backup plan so you can continue your trading experience smoothly. I was also surprise about it as well. Bybit has been a trusted platform, so it is disappointing to see them halt services. I have been exploring alternatives for some of my Indian friends, like the likes of Kucoin, Bitget and others but the latter kind of seems to be more with his trading style and they also list token early. Do you have any recommendation for me or do you think I should go on with my findings?

After following the growth of the Shiba ecosystem and seeing its incredible impact, I can’t help but appreciate how it consistently brings unique projects to the crypto space. Over the years, tokens like SHIB, LEASH have not only delivered value but also built a strong, loyal community. Their success has made the ecosystem a benchmark for innovation in the memecoin space.
Recently, my research led me to TREAT, the latest addition to the Shiba family. What caught my attention about TREAT is its multifaceted utility. Beyond being a governance token for Shib DAO, it offers exciting use cases like SHIBPAY for blockchain-verified payments, direct integration with yield farming (WOOF Wars 2.0), and staking rewards.
I am especially interested in their Launchpool. It is a chance to lock tokens like BGB and earn a share of 87,450,000 TREAT. This aligns with their commitment to rewarding loyal community members and driving engagement.
What are your thoughts? Do you think it’s another winner in the making?

It is not easy to make money and start losing the money all because you need extra income from trading. The fact is that most traders are losing. If you do not want to lose in trading in 2025, you need to have these four trading strategic plans.
1. Do not be in haste. That is the reason people think of day trading and lose 2. Having it in mind that it is better to earn little than to lose big all because you want to earn big 3. Average instead of martingale. An example of this is if you have $1000 for trading, you can begin with $200 and always be satisfied with the profit. But it you are losing, you can add $200 to it and so on to help you increase the chance of making money as it will make the market price get near to the price you bought the coin. 4. Be careful of altcoins. Although I trade altcoins but I use very lower amount of money for it. They are very dangerous.
There are others like knowing how to read charts, read and interpret news into your analyses and speculations, know about indicators. But which are the basics and I do not need to mention them as I believe you know them already.
Thank you for the strategic plans. This was me when I first got into trading, the adrenaline was too the roof always want to make money and when I do, want to make more (greed). Overtime I began to overcome my greed and drew out a plan also for myself. I will make sure to include yours to mine

So I see, its listed on CMC too, it's great to see it has decent trading volume. This is actually my first time hearing about this project. I might give it a shot and see if the rewards are worth the effort. By the way, have you invested in this token as well? I have been keeping an eye on it and the listing on CMC just adds more credibility. Yes I have invested because of its trading volume and engagement. Are you also considering investing in the project?
The fact that it is built on the TON blockchain adds an extra layer of transparency and reliability. Plus, the integration of NFTs feels like a natural fit giving the game some real staying power. Now with its token being listed, the hype is definitely justified.
Has anyone else checked it out?
Almost all new games are now build on TON, tap2earn, crypto based casinos, and it seems that there are a big hype on TON blockchain in this bull run. Not sure though if the hype is justified, I mean if there are a lot of competitions and obviously the project is not a prime mover, then it could be very hard to capture the support of the community are the market has been saturated already. But it's good that it has been listed, and so we will have to wait if it will grow overtime or not. I get your point about the TON blockchain getting a lot of attention lately and the competition being fierce but from my research i think Cat Gold Miner has potential. The listing is a great step forward but like you said, it is about whether it can sustain growth over time. Let’s see how it evolves because this space always has surprises! Have you had a chance to try the game yet?

But it's good that it has been listed, and so we will have to wait if it will grow overtime or not. TON blockchain is known for its games and the hype around them. Wouldn't call it a layer of trust per se, however, it's interesting to dig deeper than that. Usually, they (games on it) don't live for long and their time has passed, mostly. This is why its important for people to have due diligence to know about the project they are entering. Since usually those new blockchain games out there or other things using crpyto at the moment is just trying to hype people then scam them. That's why before anything bad happens maybe they should take proper precaution and always know on when to take their profit if they really want to try those projects. To many scam play to earn has pass in the scene already so hopefully there's no new people will get scam with these schemes. So hopefully they think fast before the dev pull a rug pull schemes on their project. You are absolutely right doing proper research is key in this space. I have seen too many projects that start with a lot of hype but end up as rug pulls, leaving people burned. Personally, I approach new blockchain games cautiously. With projects like Cat Gold Miner, I have taken the time to look into their tokenomics, listings and the team behind them before diving in. It is all about balancing curiosity with caution. If a project looks promising, I try it out but always keep an eye on the risks and make sure to take profits when needed. Hopefully more people follow this mindset and stay safe out there.
Has anyone else checked it out?
I haven't checked it, but a few days ago this project was discussed in one of the local Telegram communities where I join. There they were told that $CATGOLD had carried out an airdrop distribution. After looking at the website, I feel that this project is almost the same as cloud mining, don't you think? And as we all know, the future of cloud mining doesn't end well because the system usually implements a ponzi-like system. I would personally stay away from these kinds of projects, as they don't have good long-term prospects. I get where you are coming from and I have seen my fair share of projects that feel like they are walking a fine line with cloud mining models. Personally, I don’t think Cat Gold Miner is quite the same. While it does involve mining mechanics the integration of NFTs and fully on-chain transparency sets it apart a bit. That said, I totally agree with staying cautious especially if something feels off. I am trying it out but keeping my expectations realistic and being careful not to dive in too deep until the project proves itself over time. It is all about measured risks.

I was scrolling through blockchain game updates the other day to find new games when I came across Cat Gold Miner and I have been hooked ever since. What initially caught my attention was its simplicity and none of that overly complicated stuff you often see with blockchain games. It is pretty straightforward as it just entails to mine gold, upgrade your virtual mines, and earn tokens.
The fact that it is built on the TON blockchain adds an extra layer of transparency and reliability. Plus, the integration of NFTs feels like a natural fit giving the game some real staying power. Now with its token being listed, the hype is definitely justified.

You know guys what's interesting? The development of DePIN. It has evolved so much that it's kinda hard to ignore its potential. I know that a few of you guys have been discussing this, maybe I can know even more what's possible with it..
There are a lot of depin projects, really good ones with goals and solutions. There's interesting one I've been holding its airdrop. Grass Io, which focuses on monetizing unused internet bandwidth and using those data to improve AI..
I have also seen some solutions come to handy, such as U2U project, they leverage advanced DAG technology and EVM compatibility for ultra-fast transactions and scalability. Their unique subnet tech enables developers to build scalable, independent networks, perfect for DePIN apps. Not to mention their U2U token powers the network's innovation incubation programs, where devs can propose and receive support for their projects. It's been hyped on X since the listing on exchanges like Bitget, MEXC and others.
So do we still lack something in DePIN to make it truly trend?
DePIN has been fascinating to watch evolve. Personally, I have been really intrigued by Grass Io, which turns unused bandwidth into something valuable for AI and U2U Network with its advanced DAG tech and subnets that make scalable DePIN apps a reality. For me, what stands out about U2U is how it is not just about speed and scalability but also about supporting innovation through its incubation programs. It feels like a project with real purpose. To answer your question , i will say yes and i think what will make it trend will be broader adoption and real-world intergration. Also, with its listing announcement on platforms like Bitget things are definitely looking up. You can check out the latest updates on their [Twitter]( https://x.com/U2UNetwork) as they continue to build momentum. What is your take?

While exploring options to make my on-chain transactions smoother, I made a discovery of an ever-effective solution . This solution(GetGas) is designed to simplify gas payments by using BGB(An option) as a universal token for Ethereum, Solana, BNB Chain, and more.
The convenience is impressive and there will be no more worrying about holding chain-specific tokens for gas fees. Instead the platform automatically deducts fees in BGB. Plus, you can earn gas coupons by completing simple tasks, which can further reduce your transaction costs.
What is exciting is how this adds a new use case for the token and it has been gaining traction ever since its merger. The price action looks decent and I can see why people are starting to compare with other tokens with higher mcap.. What's your take on this gas fees solution?.

I am someone who has always been intrigued by Solana's high-speed and low-cost ecosystem and I have kept an eye on projects leveraging its technology. Solana’s ability to handle massive transaction loads with ease has made it one of my favorite blockchains to explore especially for gaming and application-based projects.
When I found out about Sonic, the first SVM chain on Solana I was immediately drawn to its focus on optimizing on-chain gaming experiences. It is exciting to see how it addresses key challenges like network delays and scalability while staying true to Solana's ethos of speed and efficiency.
Recently, the Bitget's Launchpool initiative connected to Sonic caught my attention, offering an engaging way to support the project and earn rewards simultaneously. Have you looked into it? I will love to hear your thoughts on how Sonic is shaping the gaming landscape!

The crypto market full of opportunities and profits, is becoming stronger and fuller, people get onboarded every single day. Among this people are those that are interested in profits only, they are not ready for the risk involved while some are fully aware and ready to tackle it by taking calculated risks. These are the people that strive to become a better trader everyday, they seek advice from experienced traders and learn from their past trading mistakes.
Investment planning is another advice they seek, they would want to make wise investments decisions, how they should diversify their investments, how much they should allocate to each portfolio. As an experienced crypto trader, what advice would you give them? What is the best way to go about investments ?
I totally agree with because from my experience i found out that thriving in the crypto market isn’t just about luck. it is about strategy and discipline. Over time, I have learned that diversification is key. Spreading investments across different assets reduces risk and helps balance the inevitable ups and downs. Recently, I came across Bitget’s zero-fee auto-invest event while researching better ways to automate and simplify investment strategies. It is a tool that promotes consistency through dollar-cost averaging, which has been proven effective in volatile markets. Personally, I think using tools like this makes it easier to stay on track with long-term goals. What is your take on automated plans like auto-invest? Have you found them helpful?

Gaming in crypto is quite a common concept but if you think about it most of the recent gamefi projects are all built on top of the TON ecosystem which lead to most of the TON airdrops people had a frenzy over some while ago
However, gamefi projects are still being built on multiple different blockchains like ETH and SOL. For example, Sonic SVM is a project made to expand the existing Solana Gaming Ecosystem to process more requests faster per second which is basically like an upgrade for current games built on SOL.
What kind of developments do you guys expect in the gamefi scene this year?
I have been following GameFi for a while now, and it is interesting how TON-based projects have dominated the space recently. Although, other ecosystems like Ethereum and Solana are still making waves. I went to make a quick research about the project you mentioned (Sonic SVM) on Google and some exchanges like Bitget and Binance and i found out that it aims to scale the Solana gaming ecosystem. it is also built to handle more transactions per second and reduce delays which is crucial for gaming. As a gamer myself, I feel it is a big upgrade for GameFi on Solana especially for fully on-chain games during high-traffic events. For 2025, I am expecting more GameFi projects to focus on smoother gameplay and user experience,basically making blockchain gaming feel as seamless as traditional gaming. Sonic’s push for high TPS and low latency gives me some hope. do you think about this can happen?

There's no doubt that the development of AI will be huge in the future, but these are just predictions in terms of crypto projects, and every prediction should have a reliable basis in the current market. For instance, in 2024, do we have AI projects that are profitable? What is the success rate of all AI initiatives? If we can dissect positive outcomes from the entire range of AI projects, then it would be fair to consider that AI has significant potential as a crypto investment.
@Op, can we research on such data?
Sure why not, what I will say is for you or anyone to make concrete research before considering. To answer your other questions, there were several other AI-focused cryptocurrencies that gained attention in 2024, although the profitability and success rates differ for each projects. What I will just conclude with is that conduct thorough research with any possible data you can get your hands on before investing. Happy new year I’m kinda lazy when I’m not interested in a project, but since you mentioned that some AI projects gained attention last year, I guess you could name a few. I’d be willing to verify if they were really successful. Who knows, it might not just be me - others might also get interested in investing in AI coins or tokens. OK, from my research there was the likes of Ocean Protocol(OCEAN) , SingularityNet(AGIX), Fetch.ai(FET) and many others, so do your due deligence and make research on them

@OP, you need to be aware that during bull season, so many projects usually cease that opportunity to create new projects on the latest trends. Currently we are in the period of meme coins trend and AI project's trends, if you don't look closely, you might not be able to different between project with good intentions and the ones with bad intentions because they are all going look good to you but with time you will find out those that can stand the test of time and those that can not. Just risk the amount you can afford to lose.
I totally agree with you, one has to make their research and even after that it also come down to you as an individual whether you are ready to take risk for the project and if you decide to risk then one must manage their risk properly

Happy new year everyone I came across a very unique project while scrolling through Google which make use of AI the name of the project is Zerebro and it instantly stood out as one of the most fascinating projects I have come across in a while. It is an autonomous AI system designed to create, distribute and analyze content across decentralized and social platforms. What really drew me in is how it blends fiction and reality to craft self-propagating narratives.
While Zerebro getting listed on multiple exchange platforms I feel like we are on the verge of seeing something big. The market sentiment around its token is already leaning bullish, which adds to the excitement.
What do you think? Are you into AI-related projects? Let’s talk!
