Yes, it's different this time. There's a slight effect on it but look how the market is recovering from the crash that it went from. Maybe this is all planned by them.
Like before, when there were news about buying out of a certain company for bitcoin, the price shoots up and I think they've preserved this news well to affect the market once again to send it to the bottom again for them to buyback those cheap bitcoins but it was unsuccessful.

Yeah, Vitalik guarantees that but we need to wait first and see the application before celebrating that finish. $20k is a lot but I'm not limiting the potential of it.
I know that there will be crazy prices for the next years to come but I don't know how long I can hold ETH on this part. But if it's about bitcoin, I've been patient holding it and that will be my bet for my life so I hold it tight unlike any other coins that I hold.

ETH to $8k. I'll surely dump the remaining Ethereum on my hold if that ever happens. But I don't know if I'll be able to reach that price because as soon as it reaches $5k to $6k, I might have to dump those ETH for the sake of profit as I don't want to miss profiting from it.

That's right, it's about how sustainable the investment is and he's said UST and we all knew what has happened to it. It was posted during a time when no one has expected that UST and Luna were going to be a dead project. There are also other platforms where people can invest if they're for the APY and staking, aside from anchor who has specific cryptocurrencies to invest in. In mycointainer, everyone has got various choices to stake. If you're for the savings, you can capitalize with your crypto as long as it's supported and in the choice to stake.

Not all. There are certain offers that don't require you to lock your assets when you stake them. In binance, they've got locked up options and there are also flexible options. The same with mycointainer.com as I quote, they have flexible options.

Trust is subjective. For example, you've tried all of those that you've mentioned and you've made decent money from them, that can affect your trust to them and you're likely to say that you're trusting them because they made you money.
That's why if it's about asking the trust of others for particular projects, there are bias answers and as well as subjective and reasonable answers as to why they think that the project and app is trustworthy and why not.

USTC = $0.04
Everyone is aware of the fiasco that the LFG did to their projects. Besides, there are still exchanges that has it on their list so you do trade there and take that estimate of four bucks.

A more than 100% APY seems to be high too and those that has thousands of % to offer, they really are something and everyone should be too careful in choosing. And when good projects that offer good APY and eventually they've become popular and too many stakers come, the percentage will go down.

Speaking of platforms, stakingrewards.com do suggest the top 10 staking providers and that includes(no particular order) Binance, Kraken, mycointainer, ankr and many more.

Maybe, the hype was over for the NFTs. If you're into it and still holding one, you need to make your own research if that NFT you own has active developers.
Because in the BAYC, I'm starting to see that they're into continuous development and all of those BAYC NFT holders are testing a game that's made for them, I have no idea if it's an NFT p2e game.

Yeah, even stocks and s&p 500 and we'll never get a stable market at all times. There could be some time that we'll see them stable but eventually, all of them will comeback and will be that volatile just like cryptocurrencies. The traditional investors don't like how volatile cryptos are but they're turning blind of themselves when it's about the traditional markets that are also volatile and unpredictable just like how it goes with the tech stocks.

I was just browsing through coinmarketcap and saw that matic is on the top trending. What's happening with matic and why is it that it's currently trending?
I know that it won't last on that trending spot but I'm curious to know what's actually happening on it and why is it that there's that much attention on it lately.

Before, bounty allocations were like $1M in fund and then no one has that thought of which of them was real and fake. Well, it was the ICO craze and many have made a lot of money from there. Knowing today how legitimate a bounty is harder. Let's say that you've been legitimately paid by their token but the next challenge that you have to face is where that token is listed. If the devs are good, they'll have it listed on a good exchange otherwise, it's listed on ugly exchanges that has got low volume.

Dude, your characters feels like you're just sending SMS to us.

Okay then so that means that satoshi=blackmarket syndicate? Honestly, many don't care anymore who satoshi is especially the new investors. But to us, we do care a lot and thankful to him and whoever he/she or they was, and we're all aware that it's an alias/pseudonym and we'll never know who he really is and there goes too many speculations on who he was.

Due to the rampant play to earn projects since last year until the bear market has come. It's interesting that you get paid to play and it's like what everyone is dreaming of.
You enjoy and you're earning at the same time and that's the desire of the majority since everyone is into gadgets. There's a belief from the oldies that you can't earn and play at the same time before but times have changed.

There's the interim president now proclaimed, Ranil Wickremesinghe. I've read it on this article in particular about the formal resignation of its former President who flew and now in Singapore.
Article: Sri Lanka MPs to elect new president after Gotabaya Rajapaksa officially resigns
I do not know much of politics in Sri Lanka but what does the citizens there think of it?

Risk is reduced because that you don't have to be active at all. But it's still there and the market will still have the effect whether it'll be positive or negative (moving up or down).

It is because anything that earns us money, we'll take that chance and opportunity even it's that low.

That's so true, the market as I've said will still have that reaction whether we're trading or staking.

But what's good with staking is that you actually gain in coins without doing anything and btw, you can compare the rates that mycointainer has to other staking platforms that you're aware of.

I haven't seen any issue with DOT and I think it's one of the top likeable projects in the market. It's not overrated, it's not also underrated. Well, by the look that it has right now. You can have it if you want but to think that you'll only buy when it breaks out, don't you think that it's even riskier?
If you believe to the project, you start the DCA right away until it breaks out and waiting for your time to take profit.

I'm not thinking that the merging will fail because I think they've foreseen the possible outcome on it and that's why there has been a long delay that they need to apply to make sure that it becomes successful. But not ignoring the other projects that have got good chains too just as you've mentioned. Well, it is all on you and if you're for the tech from all of those projects, they'll be prevailed within the next bull run and I think Ethereum is still there no matter what how good you think the other projects are.

In liquidity pools, there is the impermanent loss that you have to take as the collateral of what you'll be adding there. In staking, the risk is also there because the market is volatile and that percentage of APY won't guarantee that you're in profit if the price goes at low.
If you're still trying to find some platforms for you to stake, try to pay a visit on mycointainer, they've got several assets that you can choose for you to stake. APY for most are not that much but they're decent.

That's too low if ever it will fall to $50. I don't think that it will fall that much since they've got a burning mechanism. Just to let you know that I'm holding it and currently don't any plans of selling it. Well, if you are holding ICP and matic, good luck with those.
BNB and those two that you've mentioned, whatever you hold, you know what you must have and you're holding a good coin which you've spent time in knowing if it's a good one.
