I wish HYPE flipped SOL market cap tho

I mean we ultimately have three kinds of price movements: going up, down and fluctuating in a small range ( basically no movement). Technically, having multiple scenarios isn't prediction. Because when you're planning for everything that can happen, then you're just being ready. If you could actually predict, then what's the point of having different scenarios, right? When I'm trading a specific pair, I need to make a decision according to the information chart is giving me. If I decide that HYPE/USDT is bullish, then I have to ask myself what is your response when price is trying to break out of the current ceiling? What should I do if it doesn't break? If it breaks the resistance but I have few confirmations, how much should I risk? If instead it goes down and approaches a good support zone (which is something I decide) is it a good place to buy? Or should I wait for a better trigger? Should I see a higher low and higher high in lower timeframes to open a position? What about volume? If it's decreasing should I immediately jump in? What if it's increasing? Maybe I should avoid this position untill I recognize the end of retracement... You see? I could go on for hours. I need to plan for all of these and answer them. In the end if my answer is good enough, I open the position based on my strategy. Obviously, you can't always be correct because we're humans and market is complex. We just need to be right *enough times* so that we make good profit in the cases we are correct which is why Winrate and Reward/Risk need to be analyzed as a pair and not individually.

A 2nd sweep of the lows was likely for BTC. What's more surprising is specific AI/infrastructure alts seem to be curling up from bear market lows. I sold a good chunk of my BTC at the top of the channel and rotated into HYPE and VIRTUALS.

Lord_Gudda

Watching NEAR, HYPE, & FET pumping the last 2 weeks is the so irrational in this bear market.

Looking at HYPE/BTC in trading view. Hype outperformed BTC by 1100%.

Pera wallet on algorand is 2-4s secure transactions for $.003 or less… integrated with various cards, rwa etc Nobody cares except Afghanistan and a few EU energy companies to use it daily. Its easy to use. HYPE and FOMO is where people make money, not on tech. The hype of crypto tech from 2017-2019 is gone. What matters now is which coins make banks and politicians money, and that is via pumping tax dollars to a secure btc fund that the Us gov will buy to pump all their own bag or wharever else they invest into. Beyond quantum scares, i don’t see how high tech efficient blockchains survive as non-profitable

There's not really "blue chips" in Crypto like there is in the stock market. There's Bitcoin, and then there's an altcoin market. Altcoins are fueled entirely by hype. There's tons of them that inflate from nothing every cycle, some stick around, most don't. XRP isn't any more blue chip than SOL or HYPE. Stuff rises to the top from the gutters. This won't really make any sense if you're not really involved in the space and are just looking for buys, but the things you want to discover are things just starting up. Look at X and see how organic the engagement is for it. Look at the sentiment. Look who's involved with the project, how it links to other things. This is where things like [Kaspa](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/kaspa) and [Tao](https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/bittensor) came from last cycle, it's also where things like Ordinals, sol memes and stuff like CROWN / Memecore etc came from. You want to buy things *before* the hype or *just* when the hype is beginning, but you won't know what that is unless you literally have your fingers on the pulse of the space. If you're a casual speculator, don't bother, by the time you hear about it on Reddit, all the profit opportunity is sucked out of it and people are unloading on you. You have to, as cliched as it sounds, literally do your own research, and you won't be any good at it unless you do it every day. There are no bluechip altcoins. Anything that's run up to the top isn't guaranteed to be anywhere near there in the next cycle, and the 101-1000 ranks are littered with the corpses of those past coins.

kers2000

HYPE, ZEC, NEAR and ICP are showing extreme resilience. I think the revenue, privacy and AI narratives are the only ones that will print this summer.

Django_McFly

I'm a buyer here. will buy double if we touch the $50s. this played out wonderfully last bull. People were saying BTC did nothing when it hit $126 but I was buying in the $20s-$50s. It didn't feel like nothing to me. I totally missed the top and sold some in the $90s. Now I get to buy back like 30% off. anon, do you realize how poorly you can time these markets and still like double or triple your money in 2-3 years? all i need now is for HYPE to catch up with the rest of the market and shit the bed a good bit.

Harfatum

BTC is digital gold (flawed if you ask me, but it was a genius invention and it has the memetic power). ETH is civilizational infrastructure if developers and policymakers keep leaning into it. HYPE is an exchange. It's a cool exchange but it should be valued as just a company. Its FDV is already *higher than* NASDAQ, so some perspective might be good here.

unknowngloomth

Stop shilling HYPE. Let people keep holding their ETH and BTC. Lmao..

Economy-Experience81

the bigger temptation is to sell it for HYPE

antistupidsociety

Now show it compared to HYPE, ZEC, NEAR over the past year lol

HYPE looking good

maniloona

Oh wow, btc at 82k, that must suck. anyway, happy new HYPE ath day. . . again.

kers2000

It's 9.92 million HYPE tokens. So $\~700 millions.

babashege

Any thoughts on HYPE and ZEC? Good time to buy?

piggleii

Instead of crying about how crypto is lagging behind other markets, how about we all just trade HYPE instead?

pitalik

Kinda ironic how a token named HYPE is one of the only crypto tokens that is NOT based on hype, but on fundamentals

ShillBandit

if I open coingecko those are the new pairs with less bagholders hype, canton, sui, tao, aster, ondo, pepe, worldcoin, Stable, Venice, Ethena, Aptos , Arb, Pump So there's a lot of choices, but they're not that many as you can see. Also from that list I will remove pepe / Pump, because they are tied to Meme meta, which to me is the equivalent of DeFi meta in 2019-2020, which severely underperformed in 2021. Hype is overcrowded, but that's not necessarily a bad thing ( SOL was overcrowded at 8$) Arb, I personally dont like it, I don't see how L2s gain any momentum The rest is good, pick whatever narrative you like. AI: TAO / Venice/ WLD, I wouldn't pick near because they have a lot of bag holders so your upside is capped L1s: Pretty tough one, but SUI, is with bias, my favorite. Not because it's revolutionary, I just think it has all the ingredients for a good FU pump. It covers: \- institutional buying : cme / etfs \- covers "new narrative" : move \- they constantly ship stuff, so they'll always be relevant \- chart looks better than other L1s Negative press at the moment, so will get good entries APTOS: Been debating myself for this one, I mean it seems very risky, but it's not really, at 0.9 below VC prices, so I don't know. RWA: ondo Stables coins: ENA / STABLE Perps: HYPE obviously cycle leader can't be denied (I hold none) Aster follow up trade and CZ revenge arc ( I hold none neither) Pick whatever you want honestly

maniloona

HYPE another new ath at 69 😎

Lord_Gudda

Any thoughts on why HYPE, XLM, HBAR, NEAR and FET are pumping? Is it just because of the AI narrative in the stock market?

Lord_Gudda

Any chances he knows someone in the HYPE network or have he just listened to a degenerate friend?

longReshape40

It took a long while for Coinbase to list $HYPE. I doubt Binance will ever get around to it because CZ wouldn't want to root for another horse in his own race

verysillyman

The HYPE is fucking real…

maniloona

Another day, another HYPE ath, even as btc crashed. Let's see the downvotes to gauge how much i'll dca in june lol.

Everything gets tokenized means everything. That doesn't mean everything in the world gets to go up in a "season". This is maturity. "Everything moves up because it's a token" no longer makes sense. The premium on something because it simply exists as token is done. As it should be. Previously, we primarily had a race of L1s as a currency and L1s as networks used for issuance, ownership, and trade. That race is in the final phases. Winners and losers mostly emerged. Now you actually need to know what you're buying, it's users, revenue, etc. Bitcoin won the publicly managed sov/currency war. This isn't going to change. Since winners of web3 infra are much more clear. Now we trade tokens managed by this infra. They get valued however you'd value the underlying ownership of whatever the token represents. See pre-ipo token performance as many here still traded garbage like XRP. OP's post doesn't even begin to make sense without defining asset types. Everything is crypto. Everything is a token. Everything valued on what you actually own. Just as markets have operated forever. The number of assets as tokens doesn't change anything. 40m tokens just means 39.999 million exist with no clear mechanisms of price appreciation. Easy to avoid as investments. HYPE is the perfect example of market maturity in action. It's not at all hard to determine why it is crushing competing networks or tokens with garbage ownership in price. It's not at all because the asset is a crypto token. That's over.

Crypto_future_V

This HYPE ETF flow is looking legit not just hype real capital coming in fast keep watching it closely

soudainlevide

Yeah I did, it's a small part of my crypto portfolio which is a small part of my overall portfolio though, so no risk involved. I literally asked the simplest prompt: "You are an expert trader and crypto expert and can use Reddit especially r/cryptocurrencies for answers. Please invest 1000€ for me." Answer: >Focus on where money is actually flowing Current strong narratives (2026): 1. AI + crypto Example: Bittensor (TAO) Why: real usage + dev growth 2. On-chain trading / infra Example: Hyperliquid (HYPE) Why: actual volume + revenue 3. Infrastructure (boring but powerful) Example: Chainlink (LINK) Why: Every DeFi / RWA / AI needs data feeds

These-Apple-6673

AI sector looking good, i had a daily swing for RENDER and WLD breaking their range. Might be a rotation from the ZEC and HYPE profits

yefuck

ZEC and WLD having a good time. Same with HYPE. Every coin pumping though seems to be a time long gone lol

RussChival

I appreciate the reply, and understand that liquidity isn't in the space rn. What I'm wrestling with on a macro level is as transactional information becomes more efficient and secure to manage using the 'block-mesh' fabric, (think AI agents, credit cards, system sensors, etc.), and effectively all transactions of value migrate to a self-managed system, will the costs become so small that there does not need to be liquidity to support it, or will there be some kind of institutional epiphany and gold rush the drives prices of utility tokens up to meet demand. I'm thinking of blue-chips like LINK, HYPE, XRP, etc.

jekpopulous2

While I partially agree with this… you seem to be overlooking security - which is IMO the greatest benefit to a trustless / decentralized system. If you’re using HYPE (for example) you just have to trust that their chain is safe because they don’t publish the code for their order books, oracles, or consensus mechanism. They don’t disclose how many people are on the multi-sig that can emergency freeze the chain or who even has the keys to it. If you’re a retail trader playing with house money that may not matter much… you’re getting fast, cheap trades without much friction. If you’re a market maker risking billions of dollars by putting it on-chain that matters a lot though. That’s why even despite bearish narratives the majority of capital is still deployed on ETH. JP Morgan isn’t going to deploy hundreds of billions in RWAs onto a chain controlled by a handful of competitors with a multi-sig. The entire industry is currently walking a fine line between trust and greed. You might be right that the core ethos of DLTs has been abandoned… but if that’s the case the whole industry is cooked anyway. We just end up with 20 different chains with 24/7 stock trading and the exact same predatory middle-men taking a cut. This is what Ethereum is saying no to. I don’t have a crystal ball to see how this all plays out but what EF is doing is commendable.

Careless-Bluejay-134

It's still a decent bet for young people. I mean, it's hard to imagine a scenario in which Bitcoin doesn't get to 15% of so of the market cap of gold, which would make it a 2-3x. That's still \*something\*. It's a good play, though I agree not life changing, if that's your point. I don't know whether we'll see another "alt season", given there's so many damn coins. But the kids can still play on the edges, they may hit a HYPE or a ZEC or whatever.

No_Ebb_3017

HYPE in Top 10 will flip SOL soon and then flip ETH

alfieurbano

Hyperliquid (the product, not the token) is actually the only big Blockchain with any institutional value. I have been around crypto for a while, and it is the first time I actually see a Blockchain being a massive advantage compared to the web2 counterpart. Not implying the token HYPE will or won't crash and burn, just that the product is something entirely new in the industry

PrisonerToTheCats

I keep a strong base of BTC ~50% and have some alt like AKT and HYPE, trim these down if they keep outperforming. You can put the 'profit' back into BTC. BTC is basically your stable coin now.

I don’t own all of these (unfortunately) but I think the only truly valuable projects are BTC/ETH/SOL/HYPE/TAO. Everything else is trash. Retail isn’t coming back if all the speculation is going to AI stocks and their relatives. The five I mentioned serve enough important functions to get institutional participation regardless of retail’s disappearance.

007TheLostOne

Personally I sold all of my crypto some of it at a loss, the only crypto Im still in is HYPE. I used the money from the crypto sales to move into semiconductor and ai stocks. Don't regret it all, made in one year more gains than 5 years of buying and holding crypto. Its quite clear the market makers are moving towards AI stocks, you do with that info what you will

Electronic_Quote399

I dont know if it's the best way to handle it, but, anytime i'm unsure, which is almost always, I just take some. Unless I've given up on the asset and I want out. That way, it can go either way and im happy. If it dips again, use the money to reinvest, you're in a better spot than you started, with more coins. If it keeps going, you wont kick yourself for selling. We all misjudge. Happened to me with HYPE this week. Bought a bunch of it earlier this month for about $37. I thought 48 looked like a peak, so I sold about half. Kept going to 50.. sold a couple more. Sold a couple at 52, 54, 55, by the time it got to 56/57, I was selling 1 at a time. Now we're right around 60 and i'm down to 2 tokens, this HAS to be a peak... but I still never sell all of it. If it keeps rallying, I'll have to start selling 0.3s and 0.2s. I don't think that will happen, but I've been wrong plenty before. Sure I missed out on a little profit, but really not all that much. And I would be more upset if I didnt lock in any gains. Usually I go with a pretty simple system, if i'm up or down 10%, I generally buy or sell roughly 10% of my stack. Depends on the coin, somewhat, but as long as its a solid token, it works pretty well for me.

Ginwinwon

Im not holding anyone atm except a little BTC. Im an all in kind of guy and im pondering about wich one to go. Eth seems to have great potential so also HYPE and solana. I’ve been into XRP but got tired of all the noise. I’ve also been into hbar and made a win on that one, a bit tempted to go into that one again. Im leaning most into BTC cuz of its simplicity. Im tempted to go into eth also tho. Any suggestions are Welcome.

maniloona

Fixating on FDV is just a meme for people who can't be bothered to understand what's actually happening under the hood. HYPE just reached a new price ATH, but if you toggle over to market cap, it hasn't actually broken its previous peak mcap. Why? Simple, between these two price highs, the protocol bought back and burned far more coins than it emitted through staking.

Numerous_Ruin_4947

It only launched in late 2024. Only 29.9% HYPE is in circulation. That's high risk. Yes, HYPE has a lot of hype currently. It will be tested though just like all the blockchains. ZEC is up a lot more than HYPE since late 2024.

Numerous_Ruin_4947

See this: HYPE in Circulation: 29.9% (High Risk) Circulating Supply: 298.68 million HYPE Total Supply: 999.22 million HYPE Max Supply: 1.00 billion HYPE HYPE is still fairly new and is up about 77% since launching in late 2024. Yes, that means it may still have a lot more upside. But it also means massive pullbacks are still on the table. Every major crypto has gone through brutal crashes at some point - BTC, ETH, SOL, ADA, DOGE, ZEC, and plenty more. HYPE will not be immune. Pullbacks are part of the game, especially with newer assets that have not been fully stress-tested yet. How many times have we seen this same story? People convince themselves it is the next Bitcoin or Ethereum and destined for the moon. Then you actually look at the tokenomics and go: “WTF?” Tiny circulating supply, massive future dilution, insider allocations, unlock schedules everywhere. We have seen this movie so many times in crypto.

Present_Roll_7690

The validator economics here are interesting because they're basically making a statement: "You're running this for real, not just farming rewards for a few months." The 10k $HYPE lock for a year is a decent commitment, especially if you factor in opportunity cost. Compare that to some other L1s where you can unstake in days and bounce. The transparency questions are legit... Signed binaries and reverse-enginering the node software is fine, but yeah, formal proofs on the consensus model would close a lot of gaps. Jailing instead of slashing is a softer approach, which some see as validator-friendly and others as "where's the real stake?" The latency play is what makes Hyperliquid different in the first place imo. 0.07-second blocks aren't happening on accident. That's the core trade-off: you want fast perps execution, you accept a tighter validator set and some design choices that prioritize speed over maximum decentralization theater. Whether that's the righht call depends on what you're optimizing for. If you're a trader, the speed matters. If you're a node operator worried about long-term resilience, the transparency questions matter. Adding three validators is incremental, not revolutionary. Curious to see how many actually commit to the full year versus the talk fading in a month or two.

Post is by: SafePrestigious2662 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1th2l6j/circle_and_coinbase_backing_hyperliquid_has/ HYPE has been showing up everywhere lately, but what makes this move interesting is that it doesn’t feel driven by hype alone. The growing attention around Hyperliquid’s connection with names like Circle and Coinbase is starting to shift how traders look at the ecosystem. Once bigger players become associated with a project, market interest usually increases very quickly. Another thing that stands out is the level of activity behind it. Hyperliquid continues pulling strong volume across both perps and spot, and liquidity like that tends to attract even more traders over time. For me, the biggest question now is whether this is still the early stage of a larger expansion or if the market is getting ahead of itself too fast. I've been watching this move on HYPE alongside.

Confident_Hunter7506

HYPE is leading the way in fee revenue across all major L1’s. Probably the first purpose built blockchain we’ve seen with a real business model. They also have a DC team working with lawmakers to bring it to US users. It’s starting to look like one of the best long term plays

HYPE ready for $100 per coin

SpontaneousDream

The day that ETH bagholders realize Ethereum TVL =/= ETH price go up is the day we see a mass capitulation event. Either that, or ETH simply continues its slow bleed out as the holders slowly come to this realization over time. Ethereum as a chain has seen all metrics go up year after year (TVL, RWAs, etc). Except price. This is due to fragmented liquidity and "vampired" revenue. *Example*: L1 usage increases. Fees spike, and thus burns go up. Great, right? Except the minute that happens, activity starts migrating to L2s for their cheapness and speed. That causes fees (and burns) on the L1 to crash. L2s, by design, essentially vampire revenue and TVL from the L1. The L2s, not the L1, keep the vast majority of revenue. Only a very, very small portion gets sent back to the L1 to get burnt (\~5% IIRC). Coinbase, for example, literally extracts \~95% of revenue from Base by selling the ETH it earns from fees. That essentially accrues to $COIN holders, not ETH holders. On top of that, there are no (!) spot auto-buybacks of ETH. This is a night and day difference to a coin like $HYPE. And whatever "burns" ETH does have are easily offset by issuance from staking. Overall, Ethereum TVL and usage does not result in any meaningful direct value accrual to ETH holders. Honestly, I love Ethereum as a chain. I use it still. I was a big ETH holder for years until I finally started looking at the chart and accepting the reality: [https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/ETHBTC/?timeframe=ALL](https://www.tradingview.com/symbols/ETHBTC/?timeframe=ALL) That chart really tells the whole story. The coin is behaving just like any other shitcoin against BTC: long term bleed out. ETH/BTC only needs to do -12% to erase **10 years** of gains. Imagine buying ETH 10 years ago, holding till now, and essentially still having the same amount of money! ICO price of ETH/BTC was .0005 (1 BTC for 2000 ETH). That means the ratio can go WAY lower from here. I fully believe ETH/BTC will eventually retrace all of those gains too. To do that, it needs to do about -98% from here. Are ETH holders prepared to watch their coin bleed out 98% over time against BTC? Reminder: anyone buying ETH here is buying ETH at about **5,000% higher** than ICO price relative to BTC!! As soon as I started bringing up the above to people on r/ethereum, they banned me. If you made it this far, do not fall for the utter garbage that the bagholders spout in that sub.

CryptigoVespucci

It's been one of the best investments of the last 15 years. I think the days of throwing $1K at a random shitcoin and having it 10x in a few months are mostly gone. Or those finds are wayyy harder to find (where all the garbage used to go up at once). I still think we'll see $1M BTC someday, but tbd how much buying power $1M commands at that point. But still that's a little better than a 10x, which is good not great. Still homeruns out there - eg Hyperliquid - but they'll be way harder for the average person to find unfortunately (I missed $HYPE completely)

bataillehack

Honestly it’s a great product. I didn’t get it until I actually tried it. It can be hard to get on but if you just use one of the mobile apps it’s really easy. I tried a few of them but splash wallet was the best for me. Once you actually trade there I think it becomes obvious why you would want to own HYPE.

jekpopulous2

HYPE is having a great run but they've also been shedding users pretty rapidly. On the positive side the token was fair launch which attracted a lot of liquidity from retail, and they generate real yield. The negative is that there are only 30 validators and the fundamental components (HyperCore and HyperBFT**)** are both proprietary and closed-source... so we can't view the code for the node software or the L1 execution. I can understand why people are excited about the revenue model but I'm personally not going to use a chain that isn't open-source.

HYPE is a great project but it seems to be far more popular oversees than here in the states.

I think the reason people take $HYPE seriously is because it’s one of the few tokens where the product actually gets used daily.

Nah, I don't think HYPE replaces SOL, they're playing different games imo. SOL already has the ecosystem, the devs, the momentum. HYPE is interesting but it's way too early to call it a replacement for anything. SOL still has a solid shot at carrying the fast chain narrative next cycle. That said, diversifying never hurts lol

how do we rebuild the hype then?? WHERE'S THE HYPE!!

cryptolipto

ETH, SOL, BNB and even TRON are more used than bitcoin and have more revenue per month. Sorry but the numbers just don’t support this statement And on the app side HYPE, PUMP, Polymarket all make more revenue than bitcoin too

After those recent DeFi hacks, I'd get out of $HYPE for the time being

Funny how you exclude HYPE

jimmygetsTheShotgun

Trumpcoin was the easiest 10x of last cycle besides HYPE. Melania was clearly a dumb investment because nobody cares about her. If you didn't make money on Trumpcoin and sell then that's your issue. Could have also bought Intel back in august when he said the government was investing in them for a easy 400%. It's easier to blame others for being a poor trader tho.

If you want to know where the big money is *actually* moving before the price action hits the tape, you have to stop looking at the "what" (Price) and start looking at the "how" (Options). The market has changed (not necessarily improved), and isn't just retail apes anymore. It’s institutional. And institutions don't buy spot; they hedge and leverage using options. That's why options volume is the ultimate "BS detector" for the crypto market. # 1. What Options Volume actually tells us Think of options volume as the "Intent Layer" of the market. * **High Call Volume:** This isn't just people "feeling bullish." It’s people betting actual cash that a specific price target will be hit by a specific date. * **High Put Volume:** This is the insurance. If you see a massive spike in Puts while the price is pumping, it’s a sign that the "smart money" is expecting a correction and is buying protection. It's important to note that options are quite capital efficient, so you get a leverage bet without the liquidation risk (as long as you are buying options and not selling), so it's a very useful tool to hedge and make directional bets without blowing your account. # 2. Trending Now: The Altcoin Plays Particularly when BTC is sideways-chopping, the real action is in the high-beta alts where the options chain is exploding right now: * **Solana (SOL):** With the **Alpenglow upgrade** around the corner, we’re seeing a massive stack of $120 Calls for June. When you see a "wall" of calls like that, it acts like a magnet for price. Also tells you a lot about the sentiment, which is quite bullish. * **Bittensor (TAO):** The AI narrative is back with a vengeance. TAO options volume has tripled this week. The 25-delta risk reversal shows traders are paying a premium for calls over puts—this is pure "greed" and a sign that the momentum has legs. * **Hyperliquid (HYPE):** Since it’s basically the home of on-chain derivatives, watching HYPE options is meta-analysis. If HYPE volume spikes, it means the whole DeFi ecosystem is gearing up for a volatility expansion (and a personal favorite of mine, I think Hyperliquid has really changed the game). # 3. How to use this to your advantage You don’t even need to trade the options themselves to win. Use the data to trade spot: * **The Max Pain Theory:** Markets tend to gravitate toward the price point where the most options expire worthless. If SOL is at $85 but "Max Pain" is $100, there’s a statistical pull upward as market makers hedge their delta. * **Look for the Volatility Smile:** If implied volatility (IV) is rising but the price is flat, a massive move is brewing. Don't get caught sleeping—that's usually the "quiet before the storm" where a 20% candle is born. # The TL;DR Trading based on "vibes" and Twitter influencers is a recipe for disaster. With these, you usually rely on stale data or overused tools. Options data is the only place where people have to put their money where their mouth is. If you see a massive cluster of OTM (out-of-the-money) calls on a trending alt like TAO or SOL, the market is literally telling you where it thinks it’s going. There are no guarantees, of course, but it's an important tool to add to your analysis IMO. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

HYPE, dig in and find out why it's outperformed everything in 2026. It will continue. Fundamentals, not pumpanomics. Top 5 asset by EOY.

CaptainTrader32

even LUNA did well at one point in time. Please try to understand that I am merely asking about XRP's fundamentals and why it should be trusted over other coins. Lets say HYPE, which has a clear use case unlike XRP.

SlowArtPlanet

$40k and chasing max upside? I’d keep it simple. BTC and ETH should still be the core because liquidity flows there first when market wakes up. Then rotate smaller size into high beta names with real attention, not random ghosts. SOL, TON, HYPE, maybe AVAX if momentum returns. Privacy coins can pump hard but narrative comes and goes fast. XRP moves mostly on headlines. Biggest mistake is overdiversifying into 10 bags that do nothing. Better 4 to 5 strong plays with dry powder ready. In this market patience prints more than spraying entries everywhere.

Apart from BTC, a few coins did well, like HYPE, SOL, XRP, BNB.

RealCryptoCrank

Remember. We do not have quarterly reports for crypto like stocks. So when you “invest” the determining factor for the product is …does it still have devs working? Gaining partnerships? Being used in real world use cases? These are a must for me to even think about investing. My portfolio for institutional bullrun/institutional bear market is BTC, ETH, BNB, SOL, TRX, HYPE.

The people commenting on this thread are salty because they either A) Had the capital and didn't buy pre 2017 when the market was low or B) Didn't have the capital at the time The reality is: It's still early. Despite the headlines, despite what people are saying. Did blockchain really take off in the sense that "we're going to replace the banks with a truly anonymous and decentralized currency"? Absolutely not. Was it a pipedream at one point? Yes - around the time that you were watching cartoons. The crypto goldrush is akin to the actual goldrush. There *were* people who didn't move out west and set up mining operations.. But - look at gold now. It's still a commodity (a $13 Trillion commodity), and it's just a rock from the ground. People have turned it into jewelry, but - it's just a resource. BTC, ETH, BNB, AAVE, potentially HYPE (we will see about this one) - have real use cases that financial instructions can leverage. If you bought and held any of these since the early days, you'd have done well for yourself. But again - the equities market isn't run by retail - it's run by institutions. A lot of people entered late and bought meme tokens to make up for it because they were trying to get rich quick. Just like in the real market - 99% of startups don't make it. The same works for tokens. What you SHOULD be optimizing for if you're interested in this economy is finding tokens with real world use cases that banks will inevitably be attracted to. There are tons of them, and they're worth holding for their long term value. You should NOT be optimizing for becoming a millionaire in a month because 67coin went from 1/1,000,000 of a penny to 20 cents. The thing about blockchain is it's just basic accounting software. At the very core. It's boring. Your investment strategy should be fairly boring too. People saying it's dead, yet it has a $2.6 trillion market cap and investment banks only recently got ETF approvals in 2024. 2 years ago. If you think the investment banks are done with crypto - despite just getting started with crypto, I don't know what else to tell you. To address your question. It's PART of an investment thesis. If you had $1m would you put it all in one stock? Or - would you diversify? A little in AMD, a little in energy stock, a little in SaaS? If you had $10m, you might put some of it in real estate, some of it in equities, some of it in crypto, etc.. Long story long. Add it to your portfolio. Keyword portfolio.
