The next big thing to be fought over in crypto could be equities and stocks onchain. But how do they port it over? Tokenized stocks would be good but I think the easiest way to do it would be to offer perps markets because all it needs is a price feed and a party that's willing to take both sides of the trade... Aka a market maker.
Right now there's only one protocol that could do this and that's Hyperliquid... But there are others coming like MegaETH's GTE, Sogo, Lighter, Bullet and a couple others. I guess it's gonna start a new kind of competition on who does it the best.

It was a decent finish for the month of June with BTC up around 2.47%. As you guys can see below, the monthly chart looks ok. But as we've seen last month and some months prior to that, BTC has had multiple attempts to break out above 110k but to no avail... Will this month be different?  It's a simple question but kinda a hard one at the same time.

So here we go again... Checking for the sentiment right after last month's end. It didn't end that bad, I guess. BTC went over all time high for a while and it's still in the green despite having some iffy moments towards the end. And if you look at the chart below, it's still trending up.  So, what do you guys think, will the momentum continue for June or will we see it slow down a little and end up closing below last month's price?

It looks like more than half of the folks were wrong about April being the start of the bear market. Lol. It's funny because I was kinda getting a bit bearish too.  But as things came around, everybody started getting more bullish... Yup, me included.  So the poll of the month is how bullish really is everybody? Bullish enough to think that BTC will hit all time high within the month of May? Monthly chart looks good as it kept the bullish trend intact.

|
So yeah... I was really expecting March to be green. It turned out to be one of those ones that started well but ended up being meh. But the monthly chart below, even though it's red, still looks like it was the up trend since 2023 intact... But the market sentiment could be another story. So curious what you guys think. Has the recent events involving Trump kick started the bear market or is it still a bull market?

Ok... Just starting this thread as things are getting more interesting with the Sonic eco. The Shadow protocol with the good ol' ve(3,3) stuff is taking off, getting a bunch of TVL and it's giving out juicy APR's. And here's the thing, SHADOW's market cap is still below 50m. I think that's an easy 10x just like what Aerodrome did last year, Base's premier DEX. Anyway, watch this interview. It looks like Andre Cronje is planning on launching a perps and spot DEX that could compete with Binance and Coinbase. The Fastest Blockchain EVER Created [SONIC Founder EXCLUSIVE]https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YU5uZve0kmcThis could be huge imho. And it looks like every fast L1 wants to have a good product via perps DEX just like what Hyperliquid did. If there's a presale for Cronje's DEX I'd def want in.

So it looks like we're gonna be in for some fun as for as BTC is concerned.  And with a little bit of uncertainly, the sentiment polls return... Just to see where we're at in terms of mood and outlook for the month. So the poll is a simple yes or no question and if you don't know or have something more to see then feel free to post itt. Will be looking forward to your thoughts. Stay safe out there guys...

Bitcoin is coming to Hyperliquid.  At testnet, there's a deposit option to use testnet BTC. So for us who are mostly BTC first above everything else but wants to degen some coins away, then this could prove very useful and easy to use.  Btw the 'deposit button' is really a bridge that works like you just deposited your coins to an exchange. The bridging part is now getting blurred. So yeah... Just getting the word out there.

With all these talks swirling around that October is gonna be bullish due to it being bullish in the past, do all you guys here at BCT really think 'past performance is indicative of future results.'? Just wondering... And here's the chart. September made the monthly look good. I for one hopes the green candles keep coming. As for what could happen, I don't know. 
|

|
I missed a month of our sentiment thread as I got sick at the end of July and got worse a couple of days into August. But yeah, now it's back. A couple of days late tho. So in August we saw BTC open around 65k, had a sell down to around 49k then tried going back up to 65k but didn't make it... So of that's the range, what do you guys think will happen this month?

I'm not really sure about this but we could be at this 'spot' when it's time to start accumulating alts again. But not just any alt. I think we could have better chances of more upside if we hold the newer ones that were released recently. None of those old ones like UNI, AAVE, LTC or XRP which already had their time of trending up huge during past bull markets. We want the newer ones that are -80% down or more their recent all time highs. Those ones that were released after 2021. I won't give any suggestions of which those are as it would look like I'm shilling.
I think we'll be seeing a lot of the newer alts make huge moves up next year. And rather than scalping them for a measly 10% gain, just hold them and make a lot more money.
Stay safe out there guys.

So yeah, judging from June's sentiment poll, I feel like a lot of you guys have become a bit bearish on BTC. Honestly I do too, but could the recent buy up on BTC for the last couple of days be a sign that the bottom is in? I don't really know.. Lol. But what do you guys think? Below 60k or is the bottom in? Here's the monthly chart... It still doesn't look all that bad imho.

Let's talk about the memecoins at Hyperliquid L1, what prolly is the 'best next gen blockchain'. Lol. So I looked around their website, Discord, other online stuff and asked a couple of guys about HL... And it looks like the memecoins that's close to the heart of their community's culture are PURR, JEFF, HFUN and GMEOW. PURR is the OG memecoin that was airdropped to the guys who regularly trade in HL's perp market. It's kinda like Jupiter's WEN token. JEFF is a token named after Hyperliquid's top dev and founder. Jeff is Hyperliquid's Vitalik or Monad's Keonne Hon. Super smart dudes. HFUN is the second memecoin to be listed. But it's not really a memecoin because it has utility. It's the token of their sniping bot in TG... Kinda like Unibot and Banana Gun. GMEOW is their community's 'GM'. 'Nuff said.

I don't vote in my own polls... Yeah no bs. But if I were to vote, I think I'd vote yes. I mean look at the monthly chart below. It was down for April but then it's up for May and it almost made up for the red candle for April. And not just that, BTC is prolly due for a pump. All sideways action with no signs that it's going bear mode means it's gonna trend up. At least that's want I think. Lol. 
|
|
|
So yeah, we never saw BTC go up to 75k and stay above it and there was somebody in the April thread saying that it would be impossible for him to guess it right since the poll was exclusively just for April. Mmm ok... So let's run it back again. Same poll as April: Will BTC close above 75k for the month of May? Here's the chart. It honestly doesn't look as bad as everybody thinks overall about the market rn.

Sorry for getting this a tad late. I went on a little trip and had some fun with some friends for a couple of days. But yeah... Here's a really easy one... 'Will BTC close above 75k this month?'. That's like a tad under 10k from where the price is now. But you tell me. How do you feel about it? I think it could cross above it easy after the halving. But sometimes we just don't know with these things. So let's see those votes. Here's the monthly chart. It looks reeeaaally good.

Opening the thread for the current and upcoming projects that are under the classication called 'Modular Blockchains'. The most popular tokens under this new archtecture in the forum right now is TIA which serves as a data availability layer. But there are are others like DYM which plays the part at the execution layer. But there are other projects and a few more coming which will def be huge plays going in to 2025.
Be on the look out... Will update this thread when something comes up. You guys could post the projects you love if you want.

As these monthly polls are mostly just a form of sentiment checkers in the forum, I'll limit the choices to just yes or no again. And it would help if you post your thoughts itt. Check this chart out. Lolol really? That's like one of the best runs I've seen of Bitcoin from an optics pov. Is it really going to an all time high this month? Can't believe it's happening tbh. Sorry if I sound dumb rn. I'm at a loss for words...

Well... January started off really nice with some of the guys around here thinking that it's finally a full blown bull market. But a couple of weeks in, it looks like 45k resistance is too strong and there just wasn't enough demand to make BTC break out and stay above 45k... :/ But then again when switching to a monthly chart, it doesn't really look that bad at all. Still finished the month in the green. So yeah... Just a simple poll for Feb. Up or down?
