What will be the next crypto craze?

[uneng]

what do you guys think will be the next craze in the industry?

Possibly a solution for future similiar scammy situations like we have seen recently. Developers can improve security measures of investment platforms and exchanges for customers, so when you make an investment locking your funds for x time, a collateral is sent to your wallet and remain there (also locked) until the time period of the investment expires.

In my opinion that is what should be done. Simply PoR is too little and doesn't guarantee investors are safe from being scammed anyway.

Don't forget about DeFi which was once one of the hype, often hyped up, and finally now, as usual, has mushroomed and moved on to something else. The merger between NFT and Metaverse might still take place, as we know that before they reached their peak, bearish had come and finally they began to erode the bearish era. Even though the Metaverse has complex goals and is still growing. Maybe later this will still continue to develop and progress with more real progress.

If I am about to guess the next trend, maybe it is again ICOs.

Are you mistaken, I don't see any increase in bounty campaigns. and ICO will definitely never come back, it can be said that fundraising ICO is an old and extremely risky form.

Indeed, I ma sure that people will no longer be interested in ICO anymore, moreover with the huge scams in ICo that we have passed. This is old fundraising and we are not expecting that again. Although it was one of the successful beginnings for crypto fundraising, in fact, this way has several minus sides that will make scams, so many scams were there.

I think the next crypto craze will be regulation. Once we are able to buy or pay anything with bitcoin then new times will come. And for it, we need global regulation on cryptos and not only local ones.

Right now regulations suck, and each country is trying to make its own rules, but that doesn't work because bitcoin is a global tool that let us buy or pay for services in other countries, that's why we need global regulation. And when they come it will be a new crypto craze.

Regulation is not a craze or anything nice that we should expect. I don't like regulations because once they are enacted we will be more controlled and we will lose our freedom. It is likely that we will no longer see the hype of bitcoin and projects if there is regulation and that will make the market less attractive. Take a look at the stock market, that's what regulations are doing, if you are a lover of regulations becoming stable, you can choose stocks or gold instead of crypto.

Regulations can reduce the excitement some people have over this market, but at the same time the effectiveness of those regulations is going to be limited, one example of this is what happened with icos, icos were incredibly popular at the time, however once there were too many scam cases the governments decided to act and passed regulations for the developers of the icos to follow, and since then the model basically died, but then we had several other methods of gathering funds and new applications for tokens which became incredibly popular as well for a time.

Cryptos have had many crazes all over the years. First, it was Bitcoin appearance.
right after that, there were the altcoins and soon after the ICOs, IPOs and all the O's thingy craze. Afterwards the PoS and stacking craze came to play and then smart contracts came around then the DAO Blow. Then the Cexes, the Dexes and right after that, we saw NFTs rise along with the metaverse. (I'm probably missing something). Now we just had the Merge.
Many of these phases have helped the crypto market achieve new highs and led the blockchain technology to go mainstream.
A lot of developments have been a part of the industry growth, so my question here is, what do you guys think will be the next craze in the industry?

Not sure what will be the next crypto craze and hype, probably some collaborations or merge or something, and more on AI thingy like Metaverse but very enhanced to say that least. As for the NFT, I'm not seeing it that can last in the crypto market. It has been down in  the bear obviously and has been saturated.

Or maybe Play to <insert what's next here> craze as well.

We will see, probably we can go back in this thread if there is a new one and see who predicted it, 

[RealMalatesta]

I said the same thing a million times and I agree with you completely. I believe that NFT idea of ownership could be used for so many more things, it could end up being utilized perfectly one day and could grow so much.

It is obvious that we are not going to end up seeing how it will be a year later, or ten years later we have no idea how it will be, but we know that it is going to be better than what it is right now. I hope that people will realize the key to success on this NFT business thing is not to have just art, but some other things. Gaming joined, but it was just items being NFT basically, we need something much bigger than that for sure.

That is a long shot though, we do not have a clue if people will understand what it could be used for. I know that there are plenty other ways that NFT idea (ownership proof) could be used, and that's a good thing, music for example took an interest into it and that could be good because royalties could be shared by the NFT owners, but at the same time we are talking about something small here, compared to what "pictures" became.

After the next bull run, we will see if people saw that potential or not, if there is nothing but images again, then we shouldn't wait for people to eventually understand, but if we have another thing growing thanks to NFT then it could maybe work.

Maybe some projects or apps that will reduce carbon effect on the environment?

We've seen that this has been the ongoing torn on part of crypto specially bitcoin because of it's PoW concept that for some, it made it's way against the environment.

So maybe there could be some who will have the so called solution about it. But for now, I would say that Metaverse might still be hot in the next bull run and so like the P2E maybe with some improvements.

The following projects that will be in are probably something with web 3.0 and how it affects our daily lives. It's going to be an activity where you will be able to integrate it quickly, and people who are into that could benefit a lot more or something related.

Mostly, people are interested in a couple of things.

• Investing in something that could potentially profit
• Getting part because they feel it's something that would make them valuable to the economy
• It's just damn useful

Those, I think, are the properties that could make a project valuable to people and make it mainstream.

I don't know for sure and most definitely won't know for sure what's going to be the next craze, and to be honest out of the craziness that's been there it's only the ICO that I've really participated in the rest are just monitoring and seeing if there's any difference with the ICO and actually it's the same only different names and other similarities who jump first will be the one who will benefit the most from all this craziness that is emerging in the crypto world.

You are absolutely right people are interested in projects those can generate profit and in particular passive/stable income which we like to have to meet with our growing expenses due to rising inflation.

In future beside web3 projects, we will also see upgraded model of DEFI projects in the market which will be more secure and offer restable returns on staking. DEFI has huge potential of growth but need to be properly regulated to avoid scams.

A gaming technology that will blow us away injected with cryptocurrency. I mean, there had been a lot of changes when it comes to gaming, now you can make money out of it while before players are the ones spending nonstop. Maybe it's time to give back or just a continuous flow of spending and earning while enjoying the game.
A different kind of market which will allow both companies and players to profit.
I always just worry about security, there will always be those who will take advantage and abuse it if they found a flaw in a game.

Well, Web3, NFT and Metaverse will still be the next crypto trend I guess maybe it will have some upgrade features to make people more interested in NFT and metaverse. It's hard to predict what will be going the next crypto craze we will see a clue when someone starts one and the other follows. Personally, I like the DeFi one and I hope I can see something new on DeFi.

It will certainly matter when the bull market starts again. If this were to happen in 2023, I would bet that Web3 projects will enjoy the greatest interest. Currently, I see a lot of promising projects of this type and I think that among them you can find hidden gems that will give you a xxx% profit. However, everything depends on the geopolitical situation in the world and how long we will wait for the trend to change.

Actually, it was before when games are still free to play. I know most of those games will still require you pay first to own them but that is only for the first time. Then gaming got evolved after so many years and we now we have these in app purchases which sucks because you can't seem to progress anymore if you don't have the money to pay on them. Later on the game evolved again and we now have play to earn games.

Props to cryptos or blockchain on why these concepts came to life. Devs can still earn with these not only the gamers because they can still be able to sell their own tokens which can be use as fuel inside the game for the players to make more money.

When the bull comes we should be expecting when the crypto craze will start because this time the market is always going very fine and more investors used to turn up to the market making things to be literally okay.

I hope for the next phase of the market to be very interesting and Bitcoin should reach like $100k so that make holders will feel the impact of the crypto market.

[merekamo]

As a result of the many FUD incidents in crypto today, I think a developer or project owner will try to build web3 on each platform. Web3, I think will be the next phase in crypto, where users will have full control over their data. There are many new and innovative ideas being tested on Web3 in the next few years.

This is the same thing I am doing, I have been watching all the different crazes that have taken over the market and the forum and while they all promise that this time is going to be different all of them end in exactly the same way, with a few people getting millions of dollars and the rest of the investors have nothing to show for their money except a bunch of useless tokens in their wallets they can not even get rid of, so while I can understand why many people want to participate in such a thing they need to be careful as the chances of getting scammed are quite high.

I don't care much about these projects, which is mostly due to too much hype why these altcoins have became a craze. It's not even gonna last long.
So, I should be rooting for more Bitcoin usage as a mean of exchange or as a currency where we can use it to buy stuff and services. I'm hoping this to be the next craze that will last till Bitcoin continued to exist.
Most of the projects from the crypto development that you have mentioned above are either scam or not sustainable. Though, SOME of those helped crypto space to gather more investors in the crypto market, but nothing tops Bitcoin.

[raidarksword]

We have so many collapses in this industry this year that's why we have doubts that we cannot have bull seasons market again but we still we can in upcoming years to come for it will be halving year for bitcoin and that's the best thing to happen in the crypto market in next 2 years.

[len01]

No one can tell what the craze will be next for crypto.
But as we all know that recently there has been a lot of news about web3 and Testnet circulating in the airdrop. Maybe this has a chance to become the next trend circulating in crypto when bullish arrives like last year's NFT became hype when the bullish season arrived.

You are right, ICO craze is unlikely to return because the experience to participate in ICO has not been profitable for many investors in the past.

Not true, in the past, the ICO craze used to bring hundreds, even thousands of times more profit like today's projects. Current forms of investment, such as IEO, IDO, and IFO... are all variations of ICOs, and if evaluated in reality, those are just ICOs called by different names. I don't see too much difference between them.

Yes, that is true. In the past, when the ICO trend was in 2017-2018, there were lots of investors who benefited millions of dollars from investing in ICOs by buying during pre-sales and ICOs in progress.
In the past, there were lots of successful new ICO projects and made investors richer and got big profits when they were in the ICO era.
but unfortunately when there was an IDO trend I didn't follow the news so I couldn't explain whether it was the same as IDO. but after I read some of the reviews it seems IDO is the same as ICO, it's just a different place

[DeathAngel]

There’s always something every time there is a hype period. I don’t know what it will be but it’s sure to be something that can make you rich if you are lucky enough to find out about it early enough & get out before the crash like we saw with ICO’s & NFT’s. I guess the Metaverse is the next thing to dump hard, a short craze that fizzles out.
