ADA, MATIC, ETH, VET and then I have a few small bags for coins I believe have potential.

He's also an avid supporter of digital assets constantly in DC advocating on behald of all crypto projects - and doing a great job at it too in front of both houses Can he be annoying? sure. But there's much worse out there. Apart from Ethereum and Bitcoin, Cardano is the only digital asset I see actively trying to build out its platform with security and decentralization in mind. All the others just crumble due to either their cheap builds or lack of care for security. Happy I bought in. Looking forward to the future of BTC, ETH, and ADA projects

Charles Hoskinson is a known liar. I hold small bits of ADA too though.

tldr; Telegram users may now freely send and receive Tron blockchain-built (TRC-20) TetherUSD (USDT) stablecoins over the Tron network. ETH is steady, pushing higher and could break above $1.85k in the days ahead. Cardano (ADA) follows suit as the majority of the digital assets continue to soar. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article. As always, DYOR.*

I started in 2021. Luckily I did a ton of research right off the bat and didn't go into too many stupid alts but was able to sell a bit of ETH and ADA for some profits. Other than that, I sold the other alts at a loss because I haven't been through a bear market before. I feel like I've gotten smarter throughout the couple years and need to come up with some price targets soon on when I want to DCA out.

Mentions:#ETH#ADA

Coinbase, Netcoins, Binance, and Kraken. BTC, ETH, ADA, ALGO, and XRP

Of course it would have netted you more, but who knows in advance if an alt can stand the test of time or not? Also alts tend to move so weirdy, chance is you would have gotten ADA just a little cheaper than 0.17$, but without knowing if the project would develop enought during those years to run the next cycle. You need to watch and observe during the bear market to have that accuracy. What if you bought EOS instead? People thought it was an ETH killer at the time but it was pretty clear it wasn't in 2020 after seeing new and better projects developing

I’ll try to validate this after work lol when I get access to my pc, but what would have happened if you would have dca-ed into ADA from the start?

Mentions:#ADA

I did some backtesting and it opened my eyes a lot. Like i pretended i did a terrible job on my DCA plan during the bear market, managing to get 0.5 BTC at an average of 12k (6k invested). \- Then sold half of it at the rupture of previous at, getting around 4900$. \- Put those on ADA (just an example since it was in top 20 still, so not like finding a low cap gem) on the same day at around 0.17, meaning around 28.800 ADA. Let's also say i did not the best job at selling the top as well: Sold the remaning 0.25 worth of BTC at an average 50k for 12.500$ 28800 ADA for an average of 2,15, that means 61.920$ Your 6k turned into 74.420$ and that is after doing a TERRIBLE job on your dca on BTC, then selling your BTC at -30% from the top and your ADA aat -49% from the top.

I always hear the old stories of ADA, MATIC, SOL, DOGE from couple of years ago. Next bull we will see those again, then with (new) projects they bought during these bear market

Bought around 100k worth of ADA around 2017 and saw it go down as low .03c in March 2020 just as the pandemic was ramping up. I held thru and doubled down instead. It was surreal seeing it steadily climb past $1 and then $2. I had a goal in mind when I initially invested and cashed out a good portion when I reached it.

I will die laughing if ETH staking comes out of this enforcement action squeaky clean and ADA and Algo staking gets shit canned.

Bitchboy has always been a grifter, shill, and all around snake oil salesman. Even as a 1st timer entering crypto at the height of the euphoria 2 years ago, his hyperbole was the corniest and creamiest BS of them all. Dude trying to sell ADA was going to $150 lol. ADA was the 1st coin I ever bought before I even heard of the guy but to his credit, a couple I know in real life were parroting the same bs. I doubt harassing or threatening somebody after he gets called out on his bs is new. But he'll get his in due time.

Mentions:#BS#ADA

How about website payments? Right now, If I wanted to do micropayments via a credit card or debit card, my options are what, Square, Stripe, etc? All of which charge from 2.6 to 3 percent of my income. And what about micropayments? Can't wait for Hydra for Payments and that nice ADA scaling. But a dollar based service would be much more accessible to people. Yes, more regs are coming. Vote people in that can actually represent your interests and get the regs right. That's how it works.

Mentions:#ADA

Cause I got in on top (october 2021) and now I’m just waiting haha. I DCA’d an average I’m happy now with what I’m holding (ADA & ETH) and in no rush to sell, but also no rush to buy anymore at this point after a year of investing downward

Mentions:#ADA#ETH

Dude are we twins? I do pretty much exactly the same with my tiers & allocations. 1st tier BTC/ETH, 2nd tier Atom/matic/ADA are kind of 'established alts' (for me Atom/matic/dot) and then ~10÷ in more risky alts in upcoming industries. I think it's a great strategy because your gains from BTC/ETH should cover any risks for the alts, while those can potentially give you some huge returns.

Mentions:#BTC#ETH#ADA

BTC and ETH are the safe plays. Stick with those and your portfolio will do fine. Buying projects like ADA/DOT/XRP and alt coins are gambles for the next bullrun or if you just really support or believe in the project.

#Algorand Pro-Arguments Below is an argument written by Zarkorix which won 2nd place in the Algorand Pro-Arguments topic for a prior [Cointest](/r/CointestOfficial/wiki/cointest_policy) round. Submit an argument in the Cointest yourself and earn Moons if you win. Moon prizes are: 2nd - 600, 2nd - 300, 3rd - 150, and Best Analysis - 500. > Disclaimer: ALGO is ~15% of my portfolio. > > ## Solving the Blockchain Trilemma > > Algorand is a solution to the "blockchain trilemma" - the ability of a network to be simultaneously scalable, secure and decentralised. ALGO's TPS is 1k/s, with a 4s finality, 0.001 ALGO transaction fee and it offers L1 smart contracts - however the network will be upgraded in Q3-Q4 2021 to 45k/s TPS and 2.5s finality, ranking it toward the top for speed and scalability [(Source)](https://www.algorand.com/120720-Algorand%202021%20Performance.pdf) > > Decentralisation is achieved by the pure PoS (PPoS) consensus mechanism, which employs **algo**rithmic **rand**omness. Unlike delegated PoS (e.g. XTZ, ADA), PPoS does not employ pooled validators, thus minimizing the drive toward centralisation over time that dPOS suffers from. ALGO node running is permissionless - anybody with >1 ALGO can run a node and theoretically participate in consensus. Moreover, the hardware requirements are extremely low - an ALGO node can be run on a low energy, $50 Raspberry Pi. > > A key feature of PPoS is the use of a randomised, weighted lottery that selects validators - known as VRF. This prevents any malicious actor(s) from attacking the network since the identities of the currently selected validators (who must be corrupted in order to carry out an attack) are not known until the block is already finalised. At 1-4k validators, PPoS is paradoxically superior to ETH 2.0's 150,000 nodes - because ETH's beacon chains are long-lived. By contrast, ALGO's random selections vary on both a *round* and *subround* basis - that is, block proposers, voters, vote certifiers all vary, across all steps of certifying a block. Unlike ETH 2.0, which makes a single node the 'king-of-the-hill' for a given round (and thus employs slashing to discourage this node from misbehaving), if a node misbehaves in ALGO, it is simply voted against by all other certifiers - no slashing required. > > Governance (launching 1/10/21) will further decentralise the network by placing decisions concerning the network, tokenomics and which projects receive developer grants (see below) into the hands of ALGO holders. > > **Main Conclusion:** ALGO is fast, scalable, secure while remaining decentralised. > > ## Carbon Negative > > Algorand's pure proof-of-stake (PPoS) consensus mechanism is extremely lightweight, consuming \~0.000008 kWh/tx (vs. 0.5479 kWh/tx in ADA - that's \~70,000x less energy, and 116250000x less energy than BTC) - with 4,000 active validators. Minting an NFT requires only 0.0000004 kg of CO2 [(Source).](https://www.algorand.com/resources/blog/sustainable-blockchain-calculating-the-carbon-footprint) This energy usage is 100%+ offset via carbon credits - locked up by an on-chain sustainability oracle, via smart contract, that analyses the energy used by each node. A partnership with ClimateTrade (amongst others) channels this funding into reforestation, peat-management and wind-energy projects at a global level [(Source)](https://www.algorand.com/resources/algorand-announcements/carbon_negative_announcement). > > **Main Conclusion:** ALGO is eco-friendly, and the world's first carbon *negative* blockchain network. > > ## Staking Rewards > > ALGO currently offers a seamless staking experience, with an APY of \~5.75% - you simply hold ALGO in a custodial wallet to participate (i.e. you do not need to select a validator and there is no lock-up period). In other words, your ALGO remains liquid at all times. This, however, will be gradually phased out and replaced by Governance, which will increase APY to 7%-30% (depending on the number of participants) but which will require you to vote in every proposal. > > ## Developer Friendly & Ecosystem > > Algorand is extremely accessible to developers [(Source 1)](https://developer.algorand.org/tutorials/) [(Source 2)](https://developer.algorand.org/docs/reference/sdks/): it supports development in Python, C++, GO, Java, Javascript and RUST - removing the need for developers to retrain or learn obscure or new languages (e.g. Haskell). ALGO's smart contract language, TEAL, is incredibly intuitive and can be accessed via Python (PyTEAL). As shown in Source 1, Algorand offers comprehensive and detailed documentation and tutorials (for free) to all prospective developers. > > More importantly, \~$200-250m is available to support developers and 50+ grants have already been issued [(Source)](https://algorand.foundation/developers/developer-incentive-awards-program). In total, \~600-650 companies are currently developing on ALGO and intend to deploy DApps/ALGO-based services [(Source)](https://www.algorand.com/ecosystem/). > > **Main Conclusion:** ALGO has the ability to instantly attract developers, and is poised for an explosion in its ecosystem. > > ## Academic Rigor > > Algorand was founded by the Turing-award-winning, MIT professor Silvio Micali - and is backed by an excellent team with solid peer-reviewed academic prowess and publication record [(Source 1)](https://www.algorand.com/technology/research-innovation/research-papers) [(Source 2)](https://scholar.google.com/scholar?hl=en&as_sdt=0%2C5&q=silvio+micali&btnG=). Silvio Micali conceived of and pioneered zero-knowledge proofs (among many other protocols) - a key, integral part of ETH 2.0 and the future of cryptography/cryptocurrencies. Such a respectable and trustworthy team boosts ALGO's chances of mass adoption, especially in the financial/institutional sectors. > > **Main Conclusion:** ALGO's ability to form partnerships is bolstered by the prestige of its team. > > ## Real World Use > > A key feature of Algorand is that it is *forkless* \- it is mathematically impossible for ALGO to fork [(Source)](https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S030439751930091X). This is extremely important for real-world usage + transactions. Businesses accepting ALGO (unlike 99% of other cryptos) will not only experience rapid finality but can trust that the transaction is not on a forked, branch of the blockchain that can be lost. This also applies to NFTs. Thus far, ALGO has seen major adoption, recently including: > > * 70M South Americans (potentially 200M soon) using ALGO to issue + store COVID-19 passports [(Source)](https://www.algorand.com/resources/ecosystem-announcements/vitalpass-vaccine-tracing-latam/) > * BNext adopting ALGO for its $100b/year Spain<->Latin American remittance service [(Source)](https://www.algorand.com/resources/ecosystem-announcements/bnext-announces-next-generation-remittance-service/) > * MAPay adopting ALGO to power $800m/year in healthcare payments for Bermuda [(Source)](https://www.algorand.com/resources/ecosystem-announcements/mapay-to-implement-blockchain-based-solutions-on-algorand) > * SIAE, one of the largest and oldest digital rights managements companies in the world, launched 4.5m NFTs onto ALGO - representing the work of 10,000 artists and which will involve $100m/year in royalties [(Source)](https://www.algorand.com/ecosystem/use-cases/siae). > * ALGO was recently featured in a World Economic Forum (WEF) report on cryptocurrency - listed as a recommended "VIP" blockchain that solves issues with BTC/ETH and proof-of-stake [(Source)](http://www3.weforum.org/docs/WEF_Getting_Started_Cryptocurrency_2021.pdf).

i have no XRP but I always appreciated it being in top10 list for such a long time despite the lawsuit, delistings etc. If I'd add one more coin to my crypto-trio portfolio (BTC, ETH, ADA), it would be XRP.

Altcoins, yes, memecoins and shitcoins, no. Its not guaranteed but having some exposure to a few alts will allow you to benefit from those crazy pumps. The issue is selecting those and knowing when to cash out. I'm a bag holder of ATOM so I'm partial but ADA and MATIC are likely to grow as well. DYOR, NFA, yada yada

I was very top heavy in ALTS like ADA, VET and XRP which I bought during the last bull.... It didnt get to make any profits and ended up holding the bags. Since the Bear I started DCA-ing into BTC only and now my portfolio is 50% BTC and roughly 40% Highcaps (I don't own ETH). I'm much more satisfied with this and feel more at ease knowing that BTC is no going away and still being able to 'gamble' on ALTS for the next bull. And if I'm honest it really feels like gambling now (which I didn't think during the previous bull when I stepped into crypto). BTC just gives me a sense of security. Especially with the current economic climate and the banks.

I just stick with ADA because I like to get f\*cked ![gif](giphy|zOGnvDCKWXBF24tOND)

It can process 1K-10K TPS with a [2-second average block time](https://polygonscan.com/chart/blocktime), which also has deterministic finality. The base fee is only 30 Gwei, and the total transaction fees hovers between [$0.1 to $0.5 USD](https://polygonscan.com/chart/transactionfee) (~4M transactions, ~30k total MATIC fees per day). > > This is also much cheaper than [optimistic rollups](https://l2fees.info/). > > **Largest Layer 2 network adoption** > > Among all the Layer 2 Ethereum solutions, Polygon PoS is completely ahead of every other competitor in terms total locked value with a [$4.8B USD market cap](https://defillama.com/chain/Polygon) (Jan 2021), compared to [$5.4 USD **Combined** Total Locked Value (TLV)](https://l2beat.com/) for the next 10 largest Layer 2 rollup solutions. Note that this does not include the $12B market cap of the MATIC token since that's a coin/token on multiple networks. DeFi support for Polygon is massive. > > One of the main issues with Layer 2 is that most are currently walled gardens with lackluster CEX/CeFi support for on/offramps. After all, the main benefit of lower fees on Layer 2 is lost if you can't on/offramp directly. Polygon is also ahead of competition here with support from Crypto_dot_com, Nexo, Binance (international), and Kucoin. Celsius Network will also have support mid-February. > > Polygon PoS is the only other large network besides Ethereum currently [https://support.opensea.io/hc/en-us/articles/4404027708051-Which-blockchains-does-OpenSea-support-](supported on OpenSea). > > **Weak competition** > > There are so many Ethereum Layer 2 competitors, but nearly all of them are rollups. Polygon PoS works differently in that it's a separate network where the state of the network is stored on Ethereum every 256 blocks. Thus, it doesn't directly compete with them. > > In addition, it also doesn't compete directly with Ethereum killers (ALGO, SOL, ETH, ADA, EGLD, etc.) in that it's designed as a side chain specifically for Ethereum. It shares popularity and as Ethereum grows. > > **Shares Ethereum developer tools** > > Polygon and Ethereum share similar EVM development tools (including Solidity and Vyper), so it's easy for Ethereum's large number of devs to develop for Polygon. > > Many Layer 2 rollups have yet to roll out EVM support while Polygon PoS is already battle-tested. > > **Abundance of research** > > For better or worse, Polygon is working on multiple Layer 2 solutions and constantly researching different protocols. Polygon Zero in particular provides [extremely-fast ZK proofs](https://blog.polygon.technology/zkverse-polygons-zero-knowledge-strategy-explained/), and its technology might become the future leader for ZK rollups. > > ------------------ > > Disclaimer: I currently do not own any MATIC. ***** Would you like to learn more?

ADA finally woke up from hibernation

Mentions:#ADA

XRP, ADA and Link making a run for it.. not exactly sure what to think of that. Usually not the projects with a lot of price movement

Mentions:#XRP#ADA

That is exactly what I try to do. I have 65% BTC and ETH. Another 25% in projects such ATOM, MATIC, ADA, and a 10% in other projects I find idiosyncratically interesting such as API3, Hive, TEZOS and some others. Note: no big budget, and I only invest what I can.

ADA I never stopped loving you!

Good for ADA holders

Where is my ADA family? A good day for US

tldr; Cardano ADA/USD co-founder Charles Hoskinson debunked the idea that cryptocurrency was to blame for the banking crisis. Hoskinson said that digital assets have become an "escape valve" for those affected. He also highlighted the irony of Credit Suisse's current troubles, which come despite its persistent disapproval of cryptocurrency. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

As a long term strat. I'm in BTC and ETH Short term I trade ADA and XRP. Nice profit taking this year 🤘 Focusing on just 2 alts has for me easier than trying to reach for the moon with a mixed bag.

I prefer BTC and ADA out of the holy trinity.

Mentions:#BTC#ADA

Charles is shilling ADA for next bull run :)))

Mentions:#ADA

uh oh ADA XRP is pumping, its not looking good.

Mentions:#ADA#XRP

Why is stable coin ADA up by 13%. Is it stupid?

Mentions:#ADA

lol same - I moved all my ADA holdings into ATOM because I feel like it has more of a future. Crypto once again fucking me in the ass as soon as I decide to make a move.

Why is ADA pumping so haard.

Why is ADA pumping? I'm scared.
