In Search of New Alpha in the Crypto Market

[Alpen]

Choosing the right cryptocurrency can multiply a trader’s investment dozens or even hundreds of times over. From 2020 to 2022, traders made fortunes through airdrops. However, their profitability depends on timing, the specific project, and overall market conditions.

Today, stablecoins could become the market driver. Adoption of the GENIUS Act in the U.S. could add $2 trillion to the sector's value by 2028, giving new impetus to the crypto industry. Circle and Paxos will likely benefit as well because they will probably use airdrops to attract corporate and private clients.

Many of these companies do not yet have their own tokens, creating opportunities for retroactive airdrops and presale distributions of utility tokens. Their growth potential is comparable to that of early DeFi projects, which brought investors returns of tens of times their initial investment.

Where and how can you find the best crypto payment gateway?

Users don't need to do anything special to become eligible for future token distributions. They just need to open a wallet and run transactions through it. The question is which service to choose and where the biggest airdrop will be.

I keep my wallet at Cryptomus. This crypto payment gateway currently offers the highest rewards in the industry. Therefore, it is unlikely to hold back when it comes to airdrops. Spotting the next alpha isn’t too hard either. Tokens from the oldest and most well-known crypto payment services will have high growth potential: BitPay and Coinbase Commerce, for example. Stripe and PayPal are also worth watching, as these fiat platforms could seize the opportunity of airdrops amid U.S. crypto market liberalization.

It's very difficult to see that, as many services are open to enabling future airdrops, where future returns are uncertain.

However, I strongly believe that Plasma can generate significant returns from their airdrops; you might see that as a significant opportunity. They are also focused on developing a single L1 platform, primarily bridging payments using stablecoins quickly.

This is hard topic to discuss knowing those companies don't have token yet because there's legal concern.
There's not even guarantee that they will create token at some point, metamask was rumoured to have token but since it's based on the US i don't have high expectation since I'm sure they are trying to avoid their token being considered as security by SEC.

The GENIUS act itself also forbid yield distribution by the stablecoin issuer. Basically I'm still not sure if this is alpha for future airdrop.

But payment gateways are allowed to issue utility tokens. If it really came down to it, they could just spin off their stablecoin operations into a separate business to avoid legal issues.

As for the uncertainty of a future token launch... back in the day, nobody expected L2 protocols to release their own tokens. Even exchange tokens weren't an obvious move at first. But sooner or later, almost every startup in this space ends up launching its own crypto

Plasma really haven't hard of that project before now, and from the look of things I can see from what you wrote about plasma project to have a lot to do in the stable coin payment gateway, this aud more scalability and if everything works out fine this is one good projects that we need to pay attention to at this period where many projects are already a disappointment.
