My list of 5 Sleeping Giants of 2020 :)

[Golftech]

If SEC is feeling fine about that and that means if BNB is a utility coin and not a security coin.

That's the big question, are they feeling fine about it? Who knows. Rather than lay out guidelines, apparently they just sort of bide their time hand out lawsuits whenever they feel like it.

They basically waited until the last minute before shutting down Gram, for instance. Some companies get a minor fine (EOS), others get a hefty fine for seemingly doing less than EOS did.

So I have no clue what they think of BNB, or if they ever plan to do anything about it at all. They may ignore it, or next month they crush Binance with a huge fine, and US exchanges are told not to list it. No idea how it will go, and that is what would scare me a little about putting real money into the coin.

I should add that I don't mean this as FUD and I'm not trying to scare away anyone from the coin. For all I know it'll end up being a great longterm investment. I'm just saying that personally I'm a little wary ... it's closer to a security than a lot of other coins are.

Bringing yourself in needs to have more detailed information regarding to the project that you are going to invest your money. It's not easy to predict how the US government will stand about this project and with that, the risk really adding concerned. You need specifically learn about the project before choosing to place your order.

BNB investment is worthy if you did extra effort to investigate and analyze the whole process. Always find time to do your research.

Let me know your thoughts:

1. THETA (THETA Network Token)
2.  ADA (Cardono)
3. BNB (Binance Coin)
4. DGB (DigiByte)
5. MANA (Decentraland)

Of the five most potential altcoin lists based on OP, I am most interested in BNB. We all know that BNB is supported by Binance, one of the global exchanges with a very good reputation with high trading volume. Binance often involves BNB in various innovations attracting new investors, such as when holding IEO, investors must hold a certain amount of BNB. That is the first reason. The second reason, why a potential BNB is within a certain period of time coins will be burned. The last coin burning occurred in the fourth quarter of 2018, valued at the US $30 million. We all know that when supply decreases while demand is high, prices will rise. So, investing BNB is very valuable.

3. BNB (Binance Coin): Owning BNB is more comparable to owning shares in a company than most coin offerings, but even at $18.00 it is so undervalued. Binance is to crypto-trading what Apple is (or used to be) to the retail tech industry. Bigger, faster, and more creatively Binance's growth internationally will inevitably drive up the price of its own coin. This is true despite the fact that a large majority of users can't even access BNB (the US) without going through backdoor channels. Every other exchange just creates a platform and leaves it running. Binance is actually developing partnerships with countries, banks, and ICOs to offer a variety of offerings no other exchange offers.

It is not considered that holding BNB is a stake of Binance, although holding BNB is required to purchase an IEO, or use it as a DEX listing fee, BEP2 transaction fee, and BEP2 token migration. But Binance does not share any profits to BNB holders.

[Vitamin_52]

you forgot about BCH, he is the younger brother of bitcoin, and while he will be at the forefront in 20 and 21 years. and from your list I would choose the BNB coin, in my opinion the most promising

[Strongkored]

Sleeping giant is

If you refer to someone or something as a sleeping giant, you mean that they are powerful but they have not yet shown the full extent of their power.

https://www.collinsdictionary.com/dictionary/english/sleeping-giant

The meaning of sleeping giants that you attach to the 5 coins you have is only based on price or is there something else for example the technology?
Only ADA and DGB that I'm interest to have it.

[MCDev]

I will choose Binance Coin from your list. Binance Coin is the currency of the Binance ecosystem, the potential of the Binance ecosystem is huge so I think BNB will thrive in the future.

[maydna]

the real giants such as ETH. BTC, the god, is also asleep.

He might forget to add ETH and BTC as 5 sleeping giant of the coin of 2020

We know that ETH and BTC have a chance to increase in every year. Bitcoin itself will have halving in the next year, which can increase so high. Ethereum can be the next potential coins at the market, which can also increase, especially if the ethereum 2.0 release. I think OP has a good list, but we might agree that bitcoin will be one of the sleeping giants that will get an increase in the next year.

[tenakha]

Let me know your thoughts:

I think your list might be good. BNB is extra for this list, the price of exchange based coin may not be a good investment for the future. The price has risen well this year but as you can see, it is over when exchnage stopped IEO sales. Besides, noone can guarantee that binance will always be successful until next year. Eventually, I wonder why ETH and BTC are not on this list? Are not you planning to invest in them?

[poornamelessme]

To be a sleeping giant, I'm not so sure coins ranked so highly already really qualify. Now I like some of the OP's coins and they may do well, but several of them are already semi-Giants. Perhaps only coins ranked 20+ ... or 50-300ish could really be called sleeping giants, as that infers coins without any hype or much recognition, but one day may be very profitable.


Problem of course is picking a future giant from the zillion coins out there. There are some coins I like, but I'd hardly say with any certainty they'll ever crack the top 10.

I don't label BTC and ETH as sleeping giant because these two coins dominated the market for a long time and consecutively prove their status as top 1 & 2 coins in crypto market for each year past. With regards on OP's list, I consider Cardano (ADA) to bloom next given that they have an active community and rapid development.

[o48o]

Let me know your thoughts:

1. THETA (THETA Network Token)

I haven't studied this one, but i'll take a look at it later today

2.  ADA (Cardono)

I've been interested about ADA from the start, but sold my coins too early and didn't want to enter back until lately.
I agree about everything you say and i see most potential in this on these 5 you mentioned. In fact most potential to fight 2nd place in the marketcap with ETH.

About that EOS reference: Just because Dan Larimer left his earlier projects doesn't mean that he has a shit track record, they weren't icos so he wasn't really obligated to stay.
Now i wouldn't technically trust a guy after such moves but that doesn't mean he wouldn't be brilliant on what he does.
Imho Graphene in Bitshares was brilliant and steemit was a good idea. But i understand the controversies on dpos system, and i can only lose defending that.

3. BNB (Binance Coin): Owning BNB is more comparable to owning shares in a company than most coin offerings, but even at $18.00 it is so undervalued. Binance is to crypto-trading what Apple is (or used to be) to the retail tech industry. Bigger, faster, and more creatively Binance's growth internationally will inevitably drive up the price of its own coin. This is true despite the fact that a large majority of users can't even access BNB (the US) without going through backdoor channels. Every other exchange just creates a platform and leaves it running. Binance is actually developing partnerships with countries, banks, and ICOs to offer a variety of offerings no other exchange offers.

While coin offerings are far away from owning shares, i can't see owning BNB comparable to shares either. This whole coin wouldn't exist without CZ charisma and presence on the crypto twitter. This whole exchange has a cult-like followers (which is always a good thing, so has Apple). He is easy to approach but i am having doubts after this https://twitter.com/jaredctate/status/1175069765947314176

(I am little bitter selling bnb before the huge rise at the bullrun. But then again, everything did rise so i don't think i lost anything.)

And with that twitter link brings me to your next coin DGB:

4. DGB (DigiByte)

Now i don't know anymore if i want to invest into a coin that has a founder as a spokesman who picks up a fight with CZ. Even if it doesn't need the founder anymore to thrive.

5. MANA (Decentraland):

I wish i had been in this from the start, now i've been catching up lately because i am heavily in to non-fungible tokens now and i see a lot of potential in this.
But as always, these kind of things are aimed for the masses but the bottleneck on the adoption will be the learning curve because the eth is still a strange concept for the public and most clients are like computers without a case; People don't really need to see what's going on under the hood and get all confused about it.

[goto22]

Let me know your thoughts:

1. THETA (THETA Network Token): this is based on my underlying assumption that the first winner in what is now a pool of shitcoins/tokens will be one to attract an audience that gets to interact with something connected to its blockchain in real life. Genuine blockchain technology supporters are either young or developers (NOT the investors/traders/financial institutions backing it), This generation is generally nihilist, doesn't give a fuck about existing power structures, and wants to create and live within an ecosystem created and designed according to their needs, not others. Where better to start than something like THETA and the THETA Network / THETA coin,
which brings a decentralized version of online streaming (think Twitch on steroids) catered to gamers and their fans. Twitch supports the project, its launched a successful mainnet, operates a visually stunning platform through sliver.tv (which is currently building support base). Theta Fuel operates like BAT tips, where users can subscribe to channels and get virtual perks and a host of future developments. Just think...  Dr. Disrespect himself making a live appearance on Sliver.tv and doing a 24/hr stream-athon.

2.  ADA (Cardono): Not really a SLEEPING giant, but compared to its often cited rival, EOS, the ADA platform is ridiculously more sophisticated, well-thought out, and is slowly being implemented to ensure a smooth transition into Shelley. Regardless of whether Shelley drops this month or next year is immaterial to its long term use case. The Cardono user base is (a) extremely active (b) the highly technical network allows for non-technical users to stake and participate, (c) the ADA developer cost / coin value is tiny -- meaning users are getting highly developed technical support developed and designed by some of the worlds brightest engineers for a fraction of a penny of what it costs to be a Bitcoin or XRP developer. Cardano is truly decentralized and assigns "master node" status at random to anyone able and willing to maintain a stable internet connection 24/7. At $.04, you'd be crazy IMO not to put aside 5% or so of your portfolio for ADA. ADA will defeat the multi-billion dollars shitcoin, EOS, which is run by some kid with a shitty track record. I don't even understand how their ICO generated so much cashflow

3. BNB (Binance Coin): Owning BNB is more comparable to owning shares in a company than most coin offerings, but even at $18.00 it is so undervalued. Binance is to crypto-trading what Apple is (or used to be) to the retail tech industry. Bigger, faster, and more creatively Binance's growth internationally will inevitably drive up the price of its own coin. This is true despite the fact that a large majority of users can't even access BNB (the US) without going through backdoor channels. Every other exchange just creates a platform and leaves it running. Binance is actually developing partnerships with countries, banks, and ICOs to offer a variety of offerings no other exchange offers.

4. DGB (DigiByte): Not many know this, but DGB has been actually been around since 1993 while. Similar to LTC, but 100x faster, DGB is a BTC carbon copy. It is a decentralized global UTXO PoW based blockchain with a focus on Cyber Security, DigiAssets, Payments & Secure Communications Technologies. It allows for 15-second block time (60 transactions per second) at a virtually free (<.0001USD/transaction). Why is the price of DGB so low right now (.008USD) is hard to say, but likely corresponds with a high circulating supply, coupled by lack of awareness and not being available on many platforms. Look for DGB to begin being exchanged on more and more platforms as ALTs increase and BTC dominance continues to drop below 50% next year. DGB is appealing because when it jumps, it JUMPS. Look at the daily charts and check out June 2017 and January 2018, followed by a couple of smaller waves. We still haven't hit the third Jump, although it seems imminent and could perhaps occur even before 2020.
 
5. MANA (Decentraland): Connects digital currency with the purchase or land. Think about that - buying parcels of land online in an instant by using their marketplace platform. How fucking cool is that? MANA is a direct and actual use-case example, and its based upon real estate. I'm just learning more about MANA, but other than THETA, I haven't seen a better use-case offering yet.

BNB and ADA definitely have the most potential, although I would rather choose Cardano than Binance Coin, since BNB success depends on what will happen to Binance. Binance seems to know what it wants, as well as what it is doing, but one big screw-up, and the coin would suffer greatly. ADA, on the other hand, might go for the stars some day, and the only issue with it is that it likes taking its time.

[NewRanger]

I will choose Binance Coin from your list. Binance Coin is the currency of the Binance ecosystem, the potential of the Binance ecosystem is huge so I think BNB will thrive in the future.

i think binance not become sleeping giant anymore.this coin already show its power and quality.we talk on price and trading  volume side binance already fullfilled this term.in future bnb coin price still have chance to improve anymore.maybe i will add universa / utn as my sleeping giant i future

[Furryball]

On your list id go with ADA DIGIBYTE and BNB, to me they are more stronger than THETA and MANA, i would replace those with BCH and LTC and day, but BNB token tops out of the list, i can't call it a sleeping dragon because its head is all out and triumphing

[minime0105]

Digibyte and ADA are the most shittiest of the lot that you have listed here. BNB is iffy for me because I do not think Binance will remain the leader in the niche for the coming years. It would eventually lose ground to a more western and centralized power.

returning to topic, I think Digibite is shit because of the lack of development in the project. It is no joke when people laugh at digibyte like a meme. because it is.

[bileq]

i guess some of them should not wake up they will die while sleeping. platform coins/tokens should be survive whatever will be done but especially project tokens will die at the end.

[zabir.brutov]

In my opinion there are much more projects that can potential surprise everybody. XLM, ETH and LTC must finally do something and decrease the BTC dominance to achieve price goals. From new coins I prefer, WPP, ICNQ and XYO.

[Beparanf]

for Theta and Mana that you put on the list, I'm not sure these two are included in the Sleeping Giant in 2020 category.

If ever I will replace it I'll just add electroneum and IOST as well Waves since Im hoping my holding will still have more worth when bull run starts. I never had Theta and Mana but I will consider monitoring these 2. Will try to recheck my holdings if still worth having specially this time, since they can be much better to be in trade that to hold so I can have other alts.

[cutesgirl]

Only BNB based on my opinion become better at the future with five list you have made, ADA and THETA are not good solution for long term investment because very hard to get back to higher price, less investor and owner communicate with big company. BNB have chance to get profit at the future with how active Binance dev want to build BNB with very moment, burn coin to less supply and make meeting with big company.

[EdvinZ]

Coin BNB should be to you in the first place. This is an unprecedented case when an intra-exchange token is so popular and traded not only on its native exchange, but also on dozens of other trading platforms. Binance is actively developing and I think BNB will still show new price heights. The Decentraland project is certainly interesting, but I have seen similar developments in competitive projects and I must say that MANA does not look like a clear favorite against them. The DGB is great, but it has historically happened that with all its advantages, it will not be able to compete with Bitcoin.
