921  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Your altcoins for bull session (Between Rank 30-200) on: August 31, 2023, 03:32:33 AM
Of those coins, I'm most bullish for algorand, they are going solid on dapps adoption. And have a good amount of money locked on its chain. It's on par with solana on technology while would stop generating new coins after 2030.
KCS and Huobi token is another good option if you believe theres going to be another bull run soon, exchange tokens are in discounted price right now.
If you are into swing trading PEPE could be a good coin to accumulate now.
922  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Riding the Waves: How I Made 7 Figures with Pepe and Why Spurdo Could Surpass It on: August 29, 2023, 11:44:49 PM
Congrats to the project for listing. The first time a viewed the project I though it's a personal project for someone that would never come to reality but I was wrong. I now regret not buying it when it was cheap.
It's too early to compare it with Pepe but Spurdo still seems one of the good option to buy at current time seeing its technical. It's at one of its lowest point. It could be in the phase of post listing hype.
 It has been a volatile coin with lots of highs and lows and being a new meme coin, could have another all time high soon.
923  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is exchange based tokens worth for hold? on: August 27, 2023, 01:09:17 PM
Exchange based tokens specially from centralized exchanges are a good investment at the moment considering their price point and potential for future rise. All of these tokens have value added to them on virtue of use of that exchange be it for transaction fees, participation in pre-sales or burning the coins through exchange profits. For a good investment, you should decide the good exchanges. The exchange that would remain a top place for traders would give profit on it's coin while scams and failures like FTX would make you loose. DEX are not as good of investment now as the market is still highly volatile.
924  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is ETH the King of Altcoins ? on: August 26, 2023, 01:30:54 AM

There is no doubt that Bitcoin is the King of cryptocurrencies. If we only focus on altcoins, ETH is the most successful smart contract platform that owns the largest base of fans compared to other altcoins. The current market cap of Ethereum is over $200 Billions and the this will be more likely to increase in the long term. Can ETH be considered as the King of Altcoins ? What do you think ? Please let me know.

Presently we could call ETH the king of alts. It's arguably the second most popular crypto after bitcoin and as of market valuation, they are on second spot among volatile cryptocurrencies for years now without any viable competition.
The market valuation of ETH is now 6 times that of it's next competitor BNB. That's a hue gap for BNB or any coins to fill in coming years. Though I believe it's likely for ETH to lose it's position rather than ETH replacing Bitcoin, but it could take 10 more years.
925  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: StarshipDoge is the next Shiba Inu! on: August 25, 2023, 03:51:15 PM
Good luck with that. Noone can rule out about any coins for whether it would be another next big thing or not. But for a coin to achieve this success, it should satisfy most of the conditions to make it rise. A large part of is the genuine participation of individuals and a strategy to constantly make it to the news. Only the tag meme won't be able make a coin hit, meme coins should also bring something new, unique and interactive to keep it's users engaged.
926  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Past 3 days what did you brought in the crash? on: August 25, 2023, 12:58:57 PM
I'm not so sure about my choice as well but I bought in some LTC. It was to decrease the average buying price for me. The average price for me is still 71 while current price is 64. I might again buy some of it as I believe it would soon cross over $100. Not particularly bullish for the coin but I believe in the trend. I also sold some of my SOL to buy Steem. I prefer SOL more but it does have much price movement to keep trading. Steem on the other hand is good for trading on swings.
927  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Dogecoin Millionaire Remains Optimistic About DOGE Despite Significant Losses on: August 24, 2023, 02:42:51 PM
You can never rule out for a popular coin to bounce above its last time high. Specially when it's a favourite meme coin for one of the most rich and innovative person in the world. With its constant appearance in media and buzz on the social media Dogecoin has been a widely know coin for general public on par with Ethereum. It would not require any large reason to spur a buying trend among the non crypto savy investors.
928  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New bull market or new bear market ahead? on: August 23, 2023, 01:30:54 PM
Right now, it is looking very bearish for our coins because recently, we had a big loss. Bitcoin and Ethereum almost dropped 10%.
But Bitcoin and Ethereum are still up from previous gains.
It is very difficult if we will have new bull market or new bear market ahead.

What is your personal expectation?

This is a sideways market. Bitcoin has been moving between 20k to 30K for over a year now. Anything below 25K should be utilized as buy points.
After a bear and sideways movement around the low, it's no brainer to predict an upcoming bull. But no one is sure enough when would it arrive and whether we would get many other opportunities to buy bitcoin. A prediction is once we hit 41200 on bitcoin, we would move into a bull run. Till than it's wise to keep investing a part of your savings into crypto.
929  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Vitalik Buterin Fuels Coinbase with $1M ETH! on: August 22, 2023, 12:07:29 PM
I think he will stake the ETH on the Coinbase pool and get the CbEth. Then he will add CbEth into the eigen layer to get more points. So he will be eligible for eigen layer airdrop as well. This is just an idea.
Why would he support cex as a staking tool when he can stake it by himself?

Just yesterday, Vitalik Buterin made a move that caught my attention – he sent over $1 million worth of ETH to the Coinbase crypto exchange. Now, I can't help but wonder what's behind this decision. Is he eyeing a flashy new car or some real estate perhaps? Or maybe, just maybe, he's got some heartwarming plans, like supporting charitable initiatives in Ukraine or Hawaii. Your guess is as good as mine!
-cut-
He could donate directly from his wallet, he doesn't need to deposit it to coinbase for that.

Only reason i see for that move is selling it for money, or selling to buy some other cryptos with it. My guess is selling. It's not that unusual that people need fiat money for investing and spending, especially in current economic athmosphere.


It's been said that Buterin has been depositing and selling his ETH for quite a time now. In this year only, he deposited over 3.6 million USD on different exchanges and cashed out. The current 1 million puts it to 4.6 million. He has been donating a lot so this could be another attempt at charity.
But with the pace on which he's emptying his wallet, we can also predict he has lower confidence on ETH and maybe the market as a whole. 
930  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: De-Fi Regulation on: August 21, 2023, 03:01:20 PM
I've read somewhere that the US proposed regulating "De-Fi" protocols. It wants to treat them as "Ce-Fi" by requiring developers to implement KYC/AML rules. This means you as a user will be forced to verify your ID to use a decentralized lending protocol, staking service, or even an exchange such as Uniswap or Pancakeswap. Would you imagine this becoming a reality in the near future? It would be disastrous! This would greatly defeat "De-Fi's" true value proposition which is eliminating the middleman from the system.

With the way "De-Fi" was designed, I hardly doubt the US government will be able to succeed in its efforts to regulate it for good. But knowing that they did sanction a decentralized mixing software like Tornado.Cash, tells me that we should not underestimate the government.

What are your thoughts? Huh

For a complete financial freedom, not only we need decentralized finance but also decentralized internet. Government like US which benefits from its regulation of global money would go to any extent to criminalize any thing that threatens their control. With the dependence on current form of internet, they can just block and criminalize access to exchanges that doesn't pays them. Its advisable to follow the rules of the jurisdiction you fall into. But what the oppressive government should realize is with the access to global village, it's much easier to change your home.
931  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: What are the cryptocurrencies worth investing by 2023? on: August 15, 2023, 12:57:30 PM
There are many promising coins to invest and as we are in bottom of a bear trend, any popular coins could yield a x2 profit in a couple of years. If we are hoping for a x10, we would be taking higher risks with newer tokens. But not every random tokens are going to be a hit. There are several things to look for and analyze while trying to find a new coin to invest and however good they are on papers, they should be able to generate huge interest and buzz around them.
932  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: New coin - PEPE on: August 12, 2023, 03:43:17 PM
Yes new coin is pepe but when launched the PEPE coin tand when listing exchange than pepe coins are good value but now pepe coin value it’s not good and i have already buy some pepe but still now 4-5X loss at my pepe so i'm waiting for recovery the pepe loss amount.

The thing with meme coins is they are extremely volatile and increases and decrease on hypes. Most of the time they are low but on certain hypes or news they go higher a multiple times. So, planning the buying and selling point is the key to success. The key is buy when it's low before the ultimate rise or wait till it settles to a lower average and accumulate.
I too missed the pepe train that's why I'm early into pepemo.
933  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Altcoins profits or bank profits, which best? on: August 11, 2023, 03:54:32 PM
Bank investors have more certainty because there capital is completely safe but they give 8-10% annual profits to the investors of per year. But it is comparatively less in terms of profits.

On the other hand you will get constant profits from crypto as if you are experienced in trading then daily profits is possible. Otherwise you can get profits by investing. However crypto investment puts your capital at greater risk (main point).

Bank rates are also nearer to the inflation. There might be years where in some countries the FD rate goes above 10% but than at those times, inflation is also high. Still 8-10% is a generous rate. There are less risks involved on saving on modern banks and the yield is also lower. Even at the rate of 12% compounded, your money would double in 6 years.
Another good investment available around the world are stocks, choosing a better one is easier and their returns are mostly better than banks.
And there's altcoins, with most of us are hoping for x2 or x3 in a couple of years and some adventurous of us x10 or x100.
The best strategy would be to diversify your investment between banks, stocks, real estates and crypto.
934  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Is Binance indirectly manipulative by promoting Tokens? on: August 11, 2023, 12:59:47 PM
Hello there,

I don't know how exactly to phrase it, nor do I know if what I say is accurate; it's just how I see it. Binance has been frequently indirectly promoting newly launched tokens on their platform, either by airdropping them, by completing quizzes, through pre-sales, or by farming them through their Launchpad. What are your thoughts on this? Could we claim that it's some sort of manipulation since a large number of these tokens that are listed through one of the previously mentioned ways are pumped the moment they are launched in the market and start being traded? I don't have many examples right now because I've stopped tracking how many new tokens are being added on a weekly basis, but for instance, Binance is now offering to farm CyberConnect and SEI, which I'm also farming myself. There's no information about their price, nor can they be traded on the platform yet, but I wouldn't be surprised if they're hyped the moment they're launched.

What are your thoughts on this? Do you believe that it's a kind of manipulation and/or some sort of reward for Binance for promoting newly created tokens?

Binance is not a index or a regulating body. It's a profit driven business and it would certainly try anything to increase its profit. Be it luring naive investors and traders in buying some useless tokens. And yes binance directly and indirectly profits from it.
That's why every investors and traders should do their own research and consider every emails, web notifications and announcements from any of the exchanges as advertisements.
935  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Can NFTs last forever? on: August 10, 2023, 04:47:40 PM
All of the NFTs you know and love today, have their data stored their on centralized servers (images, video, etc). What is only stored on the Blockchain is just the properties of the NFT itself. While you're basically the "owner" of the NFT, you could lose technically lose it if the centralized server hosting the content of the NFT goes down.

So, what's the point of investing in NFTs if they can disappear in an instant? Unless all of the content is stored on the Blockchain itself, I don't see how NFTs will be able to last forever. Are there already solutions in the works that I'm not aware of? Please enlighten me on this. Your input will be greatly appreciated. Thank you. Smiley

NFT as of known currently as some random picture that may or maynot have any value assigned to them and their price determined by the demand and supply won't last long. I don't even see much of its use as game assets or game freely traded game accessories. But they might exist on more business centric operation like proof of origin or supply chain involved. Non-fungible tokens could have a variety of uses as planned and demonstrated by many projects. Or something better we still are not aware of.
936  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: look, look, what's this on: August 10, 2023, 02:56:53 PM

Some people say that the network signal is not good when you are away from home. If there are currencies that are traded offline, that would be great, and maybe there will be large-scale application scenarios for digital currencies! What do you think?

People would always find a way to manipulate the balance or fake the coins when transactions happen without confirmation from a reliable source. People would be double spending the same coins when they don't require online confirmation.
But again it doesn't mean the internet is the only way to confirm it. Some satellite technologies like BeiDou that sends and receives signals from device without internet can one day be used as a way of confirming transactions. But that would be a huge upfront investment and most probably centralized. And again as always people would keep trying to hack it's security to manipulate the transactions.
937  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: What factors contributed to the absence of price change after the Litecoin halvi on: August 08, 2023, 02:47:27 PM
Why didn't the Litecoin halving affect the price this time? In the past, halvings led to higher prices, but now there are no clear results. I'm puzzled about the reasons behind this. Please help me analyze.

Let's watch the previous halving of 2019 for reference to predict current halving results.
Litecoin halved in August 25, 2019.
Six months exact before the halving in February 5, 2019, the price of Litecoin was $34.
Three months before halving in May 5, 2019, the price was $78.
1 month ago it was $120.
On the day of halving, it was $95.
One months later $67.
And a few months after that, it reached as low as $33.
What we see from this is the price increases and is highest a couple of months before the halving and go through significant price loss after halving.
And that is exactly what we saw in 2023.
But what also is true is after two years of halving, it maintained a higher low resistance for rest of it's history.
938  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Speculation (Altcoins) / Re: How quick do altcoins pump in bull run? on: August 05, 2023, 02:04:59 PM
2024/25 will be my first bull run and I have been patiently buying and holding for over a year now.

Just wondering for those who were in the last bull run what it was like and how fast prices pump during the peak bull times?

Any advice on how to prepare when it comes to being ready to take profit?



When in bull run they move pretty fast. There are higher highs and lower highs but they are quicker and steeper. There are chances of early selling and bear trap but the bull is obvious. No one can be sure of when the bull would peak, so it would be a good idea to set a multiple sell orders most of them higher that your aimed profit. Anyone buying now can set for 20% at x2, another 20 at x3, 4,5 and 6. Its just and example and you should set them at our own strategy. Just try not trying to sell everything on the top.
939  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: Potential Threat to XRP on: August 04, 2023, 06:17:17 AM
From a cryptocurrency market standpoint, XRP is showing strong performance and is anticipated to sustain this trend in the upcoming months. I firmly hold the belief that nothing is beyond the realm of possibility, hence, we should avoid prematurely dismissing its potential. Similar to SWIFT's recognition among people, XRP is also well-known among crypto enthusiasts. It's crucial to acknowledge that XRP is gaining favorable traction in the market, establishing a positive reputation, and striving for increased adoption. Let's grant XRP additional time, as I firmly believe it will witness a significant surge in the months ahead but replacing the bank swift system is quite an uphill task in my opinion
Agree.

AFAIK, Ripple came to prominence with their plans to replace swift for mode of transactions between banks. They even got into agreements with a few banks but this business part of Ripple didn't got much success. At the moment, Ripple is not in anyway a competitor to swift and that goes to any other crypto as well. Ripple has evolved much from that point (into XRP) but they again repeatedly failed to achieve most of their promises. There are better options even if our focus is just trading.
940  Alternate cryptocurrencies / Altcoin Discussion / Re: USDCCOIN.ORG nft claiming to be 1250 usdc airdrop. Is this legit? on: August 02, 2023, 11:29:34 AM
The site is a clone of circle's usdc page but are in no way associated with them. If there were any such airdrop, it would have been stated on the circle website or social media which isn't. The domain was registered a week ago for a year time. Everything points out that this is just an attempt to take coins from your wallet. I tried to connect my freshly generated wallet and it just said I'm illegible, maybe they'll try to get your private key if they found any balance or randomly initiate scam transactions which you may approve accidentally.
