COVID-19's "New Normal" is Creating Opportunities in Crypto

[Salauddin1994]

Crypto has nothing to do with COVID-19. A long time ago, there were opportunities in crypto, maybe many people didn't know about it. Due to the outbreak of the epidemic, business is closed and everyone is turning to online work and knowing about crypto, which is increasing the demand for crypto. COVID-19 has not had an effect on crypto. While everything else has stalled, the crypto market is improving and many countries are supporting crypto. COVID-19 has caused a stir in the online world.

[Oceat]

Well we had that opportunities long before covid, it's not that we needed some disaster to help us, or anything similar, it can just speed up the process, many new people started to pay attention and it's surely positive thing for crypto community. As some people said, it's not just about crypto, it's the entire online world that has benefits from this situation, and from all that crypto has some part, I hope its a bigger part.
For adoption, we need people, we need companies ready to use crypto, and  in that process we can hope for one more thing, those people and companies to choose decentralized coins and exchanges, not centralized ones!

Well, people tend to realize after something is gone and with this new normal there's a new opportunities that some of us didn't think that it will going to happen. Nobody really know what would be the future and here we are relying on the internet since this is the best possible way to communicate and do our transactions. People are starting to accept the new normal and slowly adapting on how to use the internet to make some money.

I guess you may right that crypto has nothing to do with COVID 19 but I think if we reverse the situation, COVID 19 has a huge impact of crypto, isn't it?

The number one first usage is the contactless payment and crypto can able to support that. Since all people now was working and transacting on the internet, digital payment has a good impact. I guess this is one of the most get beneficial of bitcoin from COVID 19 and this new normal is a part of it.

the underlined message above are example of crypto doing a useful thing in times of covid   but covid19 has nothing to do with crypto  .

 i mean no real evidence that it affects it   .on our country , i didnt feel the contacless payment that we are talking about  , maybe only here  ? because people here are kinda old school  .  they do care bout thier health but they still transacting the old way  . thankfully people that i know are still fine and negative from covid virus

[samycoin]

This pandemic is give opportunity to some that always on digital and online jobs,but i think in new normal we can used it always . As we avoiding covid digital/online will be trend as new normal so i think big advantage that knows about crypto,about opportunities its always there in crypto we know that crypto are many ways to use.

Sitting idle at home and doing nothing the whole day has gotten more people involved in the digital world, blockchains, internet of things and cryptocurrencies. People are reading more about it and getting to know how it is on the verge of changing the world with a whole new perspective.

This global pandemic is indeed providing a lot of opportunities to the people at least in the crypto world. Many new bounties, signature campaigns and other tasks have picked up pace. Many people are looking to invest in new projects and also the old ones. The blockchain space is indeed expanding and is emerging out to be a much stronger market even in the covid-19 situation than anyone ever imagined.

Covid-19 interrupted the real flowing of cryptocurrency and it is also the culprit in the unbridled decline instead of the rise and continue to sprout it's suddenly stuttered which is the work of the outrageous virus, because of this many stomach cramps.

directly for crypto, it does not really have an impact on the presence of a corona pandemic, economically the country clearly has a significant effect. for crypto only seen for new projects obviously greatly affects a lot that can be completed but the price cannot be achieved, even a few months later it disappears from the market. often it is to increase the time until the situation can be controlled but this practice is clearly not good.

but for tokens that are already on the market can still run well and look starting to lead to good growth. Obviously this will benefit many who have long been holding and waiting for a good time to be sure a few months later will happen.

new normal is more directed to state institutions to be able to
run the economy so that it is not too worse because many industries can not produce properly. so that the application of this with a strict health protocol can make the country's economy run well because taxes can enter the state treasury because production is running even though it is not optimal.

Whenever I see the word "opportunity",I immediately start to think about scams...
Opportunity seems like a pretty vague term.What do you mean by "Opportunity"-crypto startup projects,where someone could invest or job opportunities?
In the current recession,it will be pretty difficult to create a successful crypto startup.Most of the investors are running away from high risk projects,so you won't get funding and probably you won't get any customers.
The economic situation forces more people to stick with what they are already familiar and what is considered safe.Risk takes and innovators will have a hard time achieving their dreams and goals.

This pandemic definitely sounds as an opportunity to even to all the scammer out there (just kidding). Opportunities is a common term and can be said with reference to almost anything. What he means by opportunity here is in general reference to the whole crypto/blockchain world be it the investment or the job offers or trading etc. And investors are not running away I would say quite opposite is happening.

People are investing in new projects and ICO right now more than they did few months back. The project launched by AVA labs raised a hefty amount in the ICO launched just in 4 hours. So are the investors really running away? Or are they just waiting in the dark for the right project and opportunities?

There is always a good side of every situation, it’s up to you search and find it. This situation is sure having some positive effect on cryptocurrency, because from what I have learnt the interest in cryptocurrency has been growing ever since. A survey I saw recently show that’s more than 60% of investors that were interviewed all said that they interested in having Bitcoin added to their portfolio. The price of cryptocurrency was able to survive the crash that happened at the start of the pandemic. And today that I checked the price of Bitcoin has already gotten to $10,335 and still showing signs of more growth.

[Shasha80]

I agree if it is said that COVID-19 creates opportunities for crypto, because by applying quarantine it can make crypto
became known and also used by many people. It can be seen now that the price of a Bitcoin pump above $ 10,000 is a sign
very good. Means the demand for Bitcoin and cryptocurrency is increasing, of course creating opportunities in crypto space.

Right, some of my neighbours want to learn about what I do in the digital world. I am a freelancer, so I work more at home, even before the pandemic. I am happy, many people who want to learn to get the good opportunities offered by the digital world. At least, with this situation, we are required to be more creative and productive.
Cryptocurrency does offer many advantages, but this is not something that can be learned instantly. In fact, my neighbour who shared it was interested and someone who refused. Well, we do not force this, as long as I provide education according to my ability, and remind that must be careful because there are many scams too.
What is clear, crypto offers enough innovation to support new normal.

With the advancement of blockchain technology people are now leaning towards technology trying to keep up with technology it is true that COVID-19 is creating opportunities in crypto. Because of the effects of the epidemic, everyone is learning different jobs online and becoming proficient from sitting at home in the lockdown which will help them improve their future in that case the demand for crypto is increasing and from a new perspective the governments of many countries are supporting crypto due to which the demand for crypto is doubling and the price of cryptocurrencies is rising.

If the human vs. corona battle soon ends with a vaccine being discovered, cryptocurrency will develop. But on the contrary, if battle man vs corona is won by a virus, it will be difficult to imagine how the world will look in the future. Indeed bitcoin and cryptocurrency are based on supply & demand, but if the pandemic is prolonged and leads to depression, people will still want to hold dollars in cash instead of cryptocurrency. In this context, the pandemic actually turns off cryptocurrency.

[bitgolden]

It was well articulated on what it means covid to crypto however in reality let's be honest we are talking about something that is not really a direct result but more of a cause instead and that cause is the reason why bitcoin needs to improve.

If a world surrounding covid causes bitcoin to drop, that means bitcoin needs to find a way to not get surrounded like that, it should be focusing on something that would allow us to actually not drop no matter what happens in the world, bitcoin gives the power to people but we should also make sure that rich do not have more power than poor just because they have a lot more money.

Tomorrow some whales can come back online, sell all his coins, and we are talking about under 5k prices for sure, hell possible under 3k for the longest time ever, it hasn't be under 3k in over 3 years so it will be for the first time if that happens. This means we have to make sure the decentralization is actually decentralized and doesn't give the power to rich people with a lot of dollars or a lot of bitcoins.

There are many opportunities out there, the only problem is only people who see it because they trained their mind by a lot of hardwork and through studying. Even though there is still pandemic, I saw alot of opportunities in many types of industries. There are a lot of businesses that having problems in this current pandemic and there is a opportunity to create a business to solve the problems of many companies out there.

In terms of cryptocurrencies, this time is the best time to understand and invest in our knowledge when it comes to trading. We have now a lot of time because of the lockdown. We can use our time in order to enhance our technical analysis skills in order to become a better trader.

But I think an outbreak will end even though it's a long time now the supply and demand of cryptocurrency is increasing with still being in a pandemic that means they are already confident about the end of this outbreak we know this technology has begun to develop since work is done at home so there will be many people use this money so that it makes it easier for those who continue to be at home.

This pandemic is give opportunity to some that always on digital and online jobs,but i think in new normal we can used it always . As we avoiding covid digital/online will be trend as new normal so i think big advantage that knows about crypto,about opportunities its always there in crypto we know that crypto are many ways to use.

But not all people do have an access to internet and do not have any device to use. How can they explore cryptocurrency with that situation and all they are experience is struggle with their personal necessities. They can't even have food in their plate, people who can only benefit for this opportunity towards cryptocurrency are those people who are in a middle class. We should also consider other people's situation during this Covid-19 pandemic. But this pandemic is really a great opportunity for those people who can only afford to invest in bitcoin and wait for its price to increase while people are not allowed to go outside.

This is true, but it is in very urban environments. There have been people who save up for a few months to get that computer or they simply go to the public library to use their resources. If you know how to properly tap into your network and resources, the options are endless.

One thing a lot of people need in these areas is guidance. This is essential for those looking for quality opportunities.

[ActAshton]

Thank you guys for voting! 18 votes aren't much but it definitely beat my last poll by almost double!

Seems very few of you only found a limited amount of opportunities. I hope you're the ones who took them and did a full send! This is the time to experiment with new ideas and possibilities

[Yatsan]

There are really lots of opportunities that have been made or opened up at this time of pandemic on which we are now into the situation called the "new normal" on which people are now focusing into digitalization wherein almost all things are now digital when it comes to buy and sell through online shops and also doing transactions on cashless manner using digital currencies wherein cryptocurrencies can also be categorized.

Since we saw that the stock market is directly affected by this pandemic as time goes by, many people have found better opportunities that the crypto market has to offer so we can say that this new normal set up we are all currently into have really brought up opportunities most specially now that we are into the phase of digitalization because of the fear of getting infected by the virus.

I have to be honest with you guys. When lockdown began in late March here in the Philippines, I already began searching jobs to apply online. But before that, I only relied to some coins or tokens that I’ve earned from airdrops and bounties (and the contest I’ve won last December) and tried other stuff like travel blogging, Facebook paid ads for e-commerce experiments, etc. But in the end, nothing worked for me.

A beautiful friend of mine from Europe gave me a sweet advice about finding stable work and not just relying on applying as ambassadors, advisors, etc., because most of these projects aren’t supporting me financially because of offering shitcoins as compensation. 

So I did took her advice. I landed a stable crypto online job and compensated very well just like a regular employee (but work from home) only to sustain my daily needs and paying monthly bills.

You were right. The new normal is creating great opportunities in the crypto space, and I’m thankful to be here and not giving up on the industry. If I did gave up, I would have ended up selling my Macbook Air, applying as a COVID-19 local contact tracer (which is a frontliner type of job and might get exposed to the virus) or even retailing vitamins, herbal coffee, etc., anything that I could make money on.

It’s all about doing whatever it takes to survive in this pandemic, and thankfully crypto gave me that opportunity.
