Is anyone else starting to become a bit excited?

As per title, have we reached the bottom ?

Don't think we'll see the likes of $3200 ever again.

$5150 at time of posting.

Back in the mainstream media once more.

Bitcoin diamond forming a parabolic pattern on the 4HR chart for anyone that's into that type of thing

Cardano is working on offering all of it's features for use by the PoW blockchains that are willing to implement Cardano NiPoPoWs (https://nipopows.com). For little effort or development cost the PoW blockchains would gain the ability to use Cardano smart contracts, voting, oracle pools, etc and in return ADA holders would get rewards / Tx fees in the PoW cryptos:eek:

This is interesting - although I'm struggling to get my head round it properly. If the gen 1 PoW coins generally have a store of value/means of exchange use case, why the need to send them to the cardano network and 'wrap' them?

I know this is being done in the ETH-centric DeFi space. However, all I see it doing is bringing liquidity to DeFi. What other purpose does it serve? How would it differ in the case of Cardano?

I'm a firm believer that there will be category leaders who will survive once this whole wave of innovation finally settles. But with that, is it not a case of choosing the blockchain/token for the specific purpose one has in mind?
So I guess I'm saying if you want smart contracting ability, then isn't it a case of not going near Bitcoin and weighing up Cardano against Ethereum and other smart contract ready projects?

Lets take the example that Hoskinson gave - the potential for a link-up with Litecoin. I can see what that would do for Cardano. I don't see what it does for Litecoin. Might such a move not be more symptomatic of the fact that Litecoin has no real world use case (or has failed to capture one)?? If so, why even bother with Litecoin to begin with - and just use Cardano natively?

I guess what I struggle with - with this stuff - is working this out to real world examples that can be demonstrated to add tangible value.

I think it's a good thing that some of these are so hard to buy, people be getting rekt left right and centre otherwise.

Finally got there. Big effort for small investment.

I wish these ALTs weren't so hard to buy. They are all over the place. Exchanges are so user unfriendly. It's like 2016 all over again.

Looks like Binnance are one if the few with LEND. But the site is garbage.

Can't buy with a card as I've to wait for my account to get checked. It says it should take 20 seconds. That was 5 mins ago.

I try to transfer Bitcoin and Coinbase says I don't have the address whitelisted.

I can add the address as that isn't supported on mobile.

I'll have to get up go down stairs turn on the pc, whitelist the address then transfer it. All for €200 worth!!

If this was ever implemented by Bitcoin, Litecoin, Bitcoin Cash, etc then ADA holders should start planning for their early retirement:)

Something like this already exists on ETH where you can use wrapped BTC on the ETH chain but you still have to use ETH for the transaction. It's way too expensive and overly complex. Cardano is built to allow native assets behave the same as ADA which means you pay fees in the native asset. Much cheaper and far less complex to do than the ETH solution. PoW chains would gain all of Cardano's features for extremely cheap fees.

Imagine checking your Daedalus or Yoroi wallet and it shows ADA, BTC, LTC, BCH, etc. Every five days you would be gaining ADA + PoW crypto for free...mind blowing stuff that will no doubt be rejected by dinosaur PoW communities.

Up 25% on BTT since yesterday, don't know if it's going to climb more but I'm out.

Also, I noticed above that some people got in on LINK at $0.20-$0.30 and want to 'let it run' further. I'm not sure if they were round during previous cycles but perhaps it would be prudent to at least learn from the past and sell a portion in order to take some profits when you've at least gone 20-30 x.... :rolleyes:

Apparently BTT is next! I made great gains out of that last year!

Yes it's a sh1t coin....

Just trying to figure out, when things start to pop, should you move everything back to bitcoin straight away or use a stable coin while there is still turbulence.

Well, maybe stable coin, to lock in some of your gains at least. Better safe than sorry. Although that being said, many people putting their alt gains back into bitcoin will likely pump the price somewhat for a while.

I think that's what happened during the previous bubble. Bitcoin was something like $15k?, but had about 1/3 of the total cap.

Swissborg had a little pull back, I haven't put any money into defi cryptos yet. Would you consider this a good one, or has it risen too quickly to where it is even now? I'll have to check into this one further in the meantime, is the fallout from wirecard affecting its future prospects I wonder..

Never heard of them.

If they are offering massive APR would be wary as they can boom and shrink overnight.

Look what happened to Balancer over the last month . Down 50% against BTC after a meteoric rise due to ridiculous staking rewards that can't be maintained.

Lend , KNC, bancor protocol , SNX., REP
Maybe UMA.
These ones have been around awhile and decent track record of innovstion over time. You might wait to see if can get a cheaper entry on a pull pack into some of them.

1 alt run is always equal 1 alt run.

Doge? Tiktok happened to it. Theres a few telling their followers how they're going to pump it to $1 so get your $25 on there now and it will be worth $10k. It's like an introduction to get rich quick schemes for gen z. Could be profitable but who knows how far they can take it and I'm guessing the people behind it have stacked up big and when they decide to get out could tumble pretty quickly.

You can see on the Cryptobubbles site which ones have surged recently. It sounds obvious but all I'll say is that you don't want to buy at the top! Either parhaps look to get it on these once they've pulled back a bit or look at ones that are in the top 20 to 30 that have yet to move.

Sounds like a classic pump and dump group. You don't want to be caught on the wrong side of that. There are better ALT targets out there at the moment. The DEFI space looks hot right now. Take a look here.

I'm sure some of you know about this site already, but found this by accident a few days ago. I've found it a great way to get a quick visualisation on the crypto market movers.

Too early
It appears money is in alts at the moment

I’m using this opportunity to increase my BTC bag by trading BTC pairs

Then once alt season is over and the money shifts back into BTC that’s where I’ll go

Thats where I'm at and I'm sure others as well. However its tricky timing the take profit on the BTC gains though. Had a few trailing stops triggered on VET yesterday before it took off again overnight.
