Nah, you're missing the point.

If the goal of crypto is mass adoption then having a different token for every conceivable use case is a non-starter. In the end it will only be a few projects that are actually meaningful and ubiquitous. The rest is bullshite.

Correct. Look at the top 20 or so and you’ll see realistic applications.

I was messing earlier

You are correct. 99% of the coins in existence today will fail in the next 5-10 years.

Exactly. Binance has a stupid amount of coins I have never heard of.

If looking for a moon shot on a shitcoin, here is a pretty good list of probable put together by a reddit user

LINK

Of those on the list I feel injective protocol is prolly the best bet just because bitboy and a couple other YouTube personalities have Mentioned it lately getting it a bunch of pub.

Of the last optc is pretty far and away the lowest risk when highest reward. It actually has a working product entry actual users.

I do feel reef is a better bet than those. Option room is another low risk high reward pay.

Chainlink Supporter Deutsche Telekom Has Quietly Started Staking on Blockchains

quote:

It’s only a matter of time until other big enterprise firms follow Deutsche Telekom’s example and run Chainlink nodes, said the network’s co-founder, Sergey Nazarov.


It’s coming baws. While others are putting btc on their books the smart companies are selling data and running nodes. Oh wait guess they need some Chainlink on their balance sheets as well!!

quote:

It’s quite a unique thing, because our business model means we need to be able to handle crypto tokens,” said Dittrich. “We need to have them on our balance sheet, various types of crypto tokens. And that’s a hard thing to pull off for a company like us.”

Just bought more btc and eth.

Thought about adding to my doge as well, but it’s on the way back down.

I gave up on the “playing the volatility” game. I sucked at it and lost out on some pretty big gains. I’ll just buy and hold now.

Everyone was expecting Doge to bounce off the support trend line and stay in the channel. It breaking below just now is not very good for it staying in the trend channel. Anyone still playing better be careful!!

might be a buying opportunity coming up though

So does anyone else find it weird how alot of people in penny stocks poopoo crypto?? I mean I get the obsession with ATs picks and its well deserved, but we are making even better gains on many of the crypto picks. Violitility lately has been better in crypto honestly.

I just think its weird how some stock guys shite on crypto. think its equally as weird when crypto guys shite on stocks.

We all are playing this to retire and buy lambos and porshes; whatever the hell gets me there....Im down to play

I just discovered AT's picks now, so I'm in both. I'm not picky about where I get my lambo funding from.

Same here. Getting in the game now with the dollar cost averaging strategy. Setting it and forgetting it like my 401k and roths

I love how CNBC creams them self every morning that there is a 3% drop in BTC. When it’s up 10%… Crickets.

I’ve been selling off a few stocks and plan to re-invest it in crypto some once the funds settle. I’m thinking early next week. I wish I could have/would have done it later week with all these gains, but I guess an upward trend and I shouldn’t look back to what could have been.

It’s hard to not see all unrealized gains as losses though. Hindsight view screws up my head.

This is all great, thanks. I just have a hard timing jumping into new coins right now after a week of gains. Would really like to see a dip soon.

That dip may never happen

I have been watching Aave since the first of the year and kept hesitating to buy. Could have bought for less than $90 on January 1. Then it goes to $150 and I said it’s too late. Then it goes to $200, then $250, and I said it’s definitely too late now. Then it doubles from there in less than three weeks

1000% gains are cool, real cool

But 500% gains are cool too




Edit to add that I still haven’t bought any Aave as I jumped over to Pennyland and out some $ there. Moral of the story is I Wouldn’t hesitate to buy it if I was a first time buyer All depends on your risk tolerance for these other coins

Throw your money into LINK and sleep peaceably in your bed at night
