Altruistic-Raise-579

I mostly agree with the framing, but I think the denominator question is necessary, not sufficient. Yes, at the base layer it’s all database entries. Fiat, ETH, SOL, stablecoins all expandable supply systems. Bitcoin is the outlier with a hard cap, so the denominator is fixed. But control isn’t just about supply. It’s also about **who can change the rules of the database**, **who can censor transactions**, and **who can force upgrades or rollbacks**. Two systems can both have infinite supply, yet radically different power dynamics depending on governance and enforcement. So the real split isn’t just finite vs infinite. It’s finite vs discretionary **and** centralized discretion vs credible neutrality. The denominator matters, but so does who holds the admin keys.

ShoeBaD

Personally, I diversified into a few alts that have momentum as well. ETH LINK SOL

gonats24

totally agree. took me a while to realize i cant handle the stress of trading so now i just accumulate things like BTC, SEI, & SOL and let it sit. way better for my mental

ThrowRA-hamburger

honestly the whale accumulation during dips is always the signal. SOL will probably be fine long term but idk, been rotating some into SEI while its low. same thesis as SOL really just way earlier in the cycle

jawni

>I get the hype we saw in the past around SOL Anything SOL has been hyped for in the past, is still going strong. And despite what this sub thinks, hype is almost always preceded or accompanied by actual traction. There really isn't any unwarranted hype outside of newly launched projects.

djejjeff

My trading strategy is based on the following assumptions: 1. The top tier crypto will go up a lot of you have a long investment horizon. At lest 5 years. Top tier I define as BTC, ETH and SOL. 2. I believe SOL will show the highest beta of the three, so SOL has over weight in the portfolio 3. I use levarage, but very modest 1.35x. I know exactly how low my crypto has to go and I know exactly when I will exit and that's long before liquidation and I know how much I will lose if I exit a at this point 4. Then I just sit right tight and add a little when it drops

coinfeeds-bot

tldr; Solana (SOL) has dipped below $130 for the first time since early January 2026, indicating a temporary market pullback. Despite this, onchain data reveals significant accumulation by large holders, or 'whales,' with addresses holding 1,000 to 10,000 SOL increasing their positions. Exchange supply of SOL has dropped to a two-year low, reducing sell pressure. Additionally, Solana's network activity has rebounded, with daily active addresses and transactions rising sharply, signaling potential for a price rally as ecosystem engagement and stablecoin supply grow. *This summary is auto generated by a bot and not meant to replace reading the original article.

DryMyBottom

I get the hype we saw in the past around SOL, but the truth is that beside BTC, and maybe ETH, the crypto space is full os useless junk, and the sooner people understand that the better will be for their savings

iamjide91

Don't hop on memes. Focus on LINK, ADA, AIOZ, SOL, RNDR for the most part. Play with the tech as much as possible, it gives you a better view of the project.

Immediate_Habit_2398

The problem is SOL is still correlated to BTC. It needs to break away like XMR.

Plenty_Dog_5684

Swap all your SOL ADA and XRP for BTC and maintain a solely BTC and ETH balance. Everything in crypto besides monero and stablecoins follow bitcoin anyway

ItsHoldMyBeerTime

Trade your SOL for HBAR and chill

I don't have bear targets, but I have prices I'd love to start sweeping the dips. BTC <85K, ETH <2,765, SOL <119, & I think it's good time to buy AIOZ.

TheObamaCare

Can’t recommend a Trezor enough Great for staking SOL as well

alexendra_marin

Learn self-custody early with a clean wallet (for SOL stuff, Solflare is pretty beginner-friendly), avoid chasing hype, and assume anything promising fast returns is a trap.

Revenantjuggernaut

So my gut for weeks has been like Eeeeethh…. Soooolaaanaaaaaaa….. I had 1400$ of BTC entry of 87k it’s like at little over 90 some and I’m like yeah this bitxh is gonna drop. Then I hear this voice again.. Eeeetthhhhhhh Sooollaanaaaaaaaa. I said fuk it! And I’ve been having since day one this drive to acquire a whole Eth. Mind you the 1000$ my brother gave me. I threw into Eth at a lovely price of 4,400. Staked it on CB and immediately was like wtf did I just do lol. I just got my first whole Eth 95% of it at 2900. I had some SOL dumped it yesterday while it was still in the 140’s so I could finish gettin this ETH coin and tossed it into some low cap web3 things. Got up this morning toser SOL in the 120’s I said thank you Jesus and grabbed me my SOL back at an even lower price then I had before lol I can’t make this shit up man

Revenantjuggernaut

Bro I just started last Aug myself. And you got the right idea. But don’t be too quick to eat some losses to reallocate. If you doing long term or trying to swing trade like what I do I guess lol. But right now man Eth and SOL specifically are going to explode. BTC is always king and country

DardoAkaJimmy

sounds like pure hype ngl. RWA stuff is interesting but most oil tokens never deliver, id rather just hold SEI or SOL

Revenantjuggernaut

Btw I reallocated my SOL while it was still 145 just woke up to scoop some back up at 120 thats how you do it big dawg lol

Internal_Resort5451

If I were starting with $1k today I’d keep it boring and safe mostly BTC, a smaller chunk in SOL, and hold off on random alts until I actually understand the cycles. I’d buy on a big, boring exchange for liquidity, then move long term stuff to self custody so I’m not trusting one company with everything. Biggest early mistakes are overtrading, chasing hype, and clicking sketchy links. Also don’t rush DeFi before you understand approvals and signing. For storage and everyday use on Solana, I’ve liked Solflare because it’s simple and feels clean for self custody, but the main rule is slow down, learn first, and protect your keys like your life depends on it.

ginnipix

• 50% BTC 20% ETH 20%SOL 10% ADA • Been using KuCoin and I don't mind putting it on a hot wallet • Gas and NFTs cost me • I'll avoid FOMO

Beneficial-Hope68

BTC / ETH / SOL as a core basket makes sense. When you say “investing in good exchanges,” do you mean simply using reputable exchanges for execution, or actually allocating capital into exchange tokens / products? I’m trying to keep counterparty risk low as a beginner.

Beneficial-Hope68

Clean and simple allocation. Heavy BTC makes sense for stability, with SOL for some upside exposure. What’s your time horizon for holding this, and do you rebalance over time or just let it run?

Commercial-Base-4774

for me, starting with $1000 I will start investing in 3 big coins BTC, ETH, SOL then I will follow up with investing in good exchanges like okx, bitget, Nika finance, binance etc. as long as you are sure it is available in your country, that you can access it without any problems

ExpressSavings7615

I don’t buy through ETFs, not for this reason, just because I don’t see a major issue with managing self custody. There’s one thing I don’t get about this argument for not buying through ETFs though. In the circumstance where no one would want to buy the ETF from you, wouldn’t it be the same story for the BTC/ETH/SOL/etc.?

Swimming-Project-311

Not GenZ and don't believe in SOL. I'm quite bearish on most of the current crypto offerings. The ETH ecosystem has somehow become even more convoluted and hostile to users than it was during COVID, an impressive feat. It will never be more than a speculative, con-adjacent, pseudo asset. And as institutions, requiring predictability and accessibility, take control of crypto markets, ETH will get pushed out -- slowly, then all at once -- for some new and better tech. I had ETH staking for years that I recently unstaked and swapped for equities. Despite the reasonable, albeit superficial, logic that a crypto-friendly administration will drive the prices of current players up, I think crypto drives more and more towards bespoke, purpose-built, and highly auditable technologies that institutions are comfortable working with. That's in direct opposition to whatever Vitalik is doing these days.

ADHD-Developer

I would keep it in USDC until btc touches the 200 W EMA then ill dump it all on a small top 100 trusted project/projects like NIGHT , Render, link .. capital is small so my appetite for risk is high at this situation, if it was 30 k then i would tell you ETH, SOL, XRP.. if it was 100k then it would be BTC.. the higher the capital the less risk i expose

Revenantjuggernaut

So I literally started with 200 turned to 600 Ina few days then got my brother to gimme a grand. And I knew nothing and it was Aug when everything was ATH. Dood told me if I want to make the most and fastest returns trade small market cap and high volatility. Stay away from memes and the small caps look into the ones you might want to hold onto. But if you’re trying to make it faster. You gotta stay locked in. The news economy everything I have my few I hold but I wake up every morning and see what popping off. I choose a few to jump from town forth if one starts to slow down. Make what you an and pull out!!!! DO NOT TRY TO FOCE trade the market after you get hammered a few times just learn a lesson and go do whatever for a little lol. But BTC is king and country with 1000… honestly I’d just buy a bunch of SOL right now!!! And then DCA BTC and ETH

No_Constant_5797

SOL run still is alive , might blow up

mcfreiz

When they moved to layer 2s for speed sold and bought SOL

Revenantjuggernaut

I moved everything to ETH TAO. I just started in Aug and lately my guts been saying ETH an SOL. I was like 🤔 ok! Reallocated the BTC to ETH and SOL. I squared 95% of my ETH at 2900 then it goes up to 3300 so I took the SOL swapped it around to grab the rest of the ETH I needed and some TAO. Was getting worried with BTC up to 95,000 from like 87,000 last week. Then it just dropped to 92,000 so I’m feeling good look at ETH everything’s tanked hard ETH moved 100$…..

AcanthisittaEarly983

BTC, SOL, ETH. DC, hold. That's all. It will go up again, hell we are at 92k now. Don't mess with weird shit coins and don't invest money you can't burn in your back yard right now. It sounds like you broke the "don't mess with weird shit coins" rule and sadly that means losing money most of the time, it's just blind gambling and you'll always convince yourself "it can still go higher" then that turns to "it will pump to last months high again and I'll sell". Nothing but a vicious cycle of losing money. Like others have said, time in the market always beats trying to time the market. 

Nrgte

I don't think it's true and I'll give you an extreme example: If the price of ETH drops by 99% so does the TVL because it's linked to the price. If the price of SOL doubles so will it's TVL and it's percentage will increase accordingly despite no changes in activity. If you want to like at the true TVL, you have to look measure it in ETH, SOL etc. instead of $.

Revenantjuggernaut

Well I don’t leverage. When I started in Aug I just dove into learning candle stick patters and how best to predict and read them. Market psychology. Depending on your goals and how much you have to start with. But best advice I had got in the beginning cuz I didn’t start with a lot. Was trade low market caps they will bring the highest and fastest return. But do you research and then recon them bad boys and make sure you have the trading volume that equals the volatility. Apparently ppl tell me I’m a swing day trader? I have my few projects I like and support and believe in the mission. Then when I get up in the morning immediately pull up news cmc crypto bubbles an start searching for the coins I believe I can make some money with for the day. And then there’s days like lately. I had to just dump and reallocated all my shit into ETH SOL TAO SQD. Only had $1400 into BTC my avg buy in was 87,000 and this was like when it was in the 90’s and I just saw it falling so I pulled the trigger and I’m happy I dad. I wanted to get a whole ETH an I got it!! Eth and Sol are gonna burst next for sure. Then I mean TAO is TAO. SQD being a data infrastructure running off ZK proofs that’s going to explode aswell and it’s a 73.27M market cap!!!!

Lol not solana 😂 ​Solana has gone "dark" more than any other top-ten blockchain. ​Sept 14, 2021 (17 Hours): The first "big one." A bot attack during the Grape Protocol IDO overwhelmed validators with 400,000 transactions per second, causing the entire network to fork and stall. ​June 1, 2022 (4.5 Hours): A bug in the "durable nonce" transaction feature caused a consensus failure. ​Sept 30, 2022 (6 Hours): A misconfigured validator produced duplicate blocks, confusing the fork selection logic. ​Feb 6, 2024 (5 Hours): A bug in the "Just-in-Time" (JIT) compilation cache caused an infinite loop, halting block production entirely. ​March 17, 2025 (2 Hours): A massive RPC node overload during a high-traffic event led to partial network degradation and confirmed "StatusGator" warnings. ​The "Shadow Outages" (2025): Throughout late 2024 and early 2025, independent monitors reported at least 9 unacknowledged disruptions where wallets and DEXs failed to process, even though the official status page stayed "green." ​🔓 Major Hacks & Ecosystem Exploits ​While some were protocol bugs, many were "ecosystem failures" that cost users hundreds of millions. ​Wormhole Bridge Hack ($326 Million - Feb 2022): The most devastating. An attacker exploited a signature verification flaw to mint 120,000 ETH on Solana out of thin air. ​Mango Markets Manipulation ($116 Million - Oct 2022): A "highly profitable trading strategy" (exploit) where attackers manipulated oracle prices to drain the treasury. ​Slope Wallet Breach ($8 Million - Aug 2022): A catastrophic security failure where the mobile wallet was sending users' private seed phrases in plaintext to a central server. ​Raydium Admin Key Hack ($4.4 Million - Dec 2022): A single admin key sat on a virtual machine without multisig protection, allowing a hacker to drain liquidity pools for four hours undetected. ​Upbit "Lazarus" Hack ($36 Million - Nov 2025): Suspected North Korean hackers exploited compromised hot wallets to steal SOL, ORCA, and JUP. ​📉 The "Bad News" Wrap-Up (2025–2026) ​The 97% Activity Crash (Q4 2025): As the memecoin craze cooled, monthly active traders plummeted from 30 million to under 1 million. Revenue dropped 5x, revealing how much of Solana's "success" was just speculative bot traffic. ​Validator Contraction: The number of active validator nodes has shrunk by 68% (from 2,500 down to roughly 800 in early 2026), raising major alarms about increasing centralization. ​The "Ghost App" Problem: Recent 2026 audits show that 75% of the 264 protocols ever launched on Solana are now completely inactive or dormant.

I like SOL more for staking and value. Chainlink is at a more reasonable price and has no real comparisons. SOL SUI and ETH usually are talked about in the same breath. Both are good investments but I lean SOL

Post is by: Distinct_Luck7196 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1qgvdam/comparing_sol_and_chainlink/ I’m curious to hear your opinions on how Solana and Chainlink might perform going forward. Solana has focused heavily on high throughput and low fees as a layer-1 blockchain, while Chainlink has established itself as an important infrastructure through its oracle network and growing integrations across DeFi and traditional finance. Things haven’t been looking too great with SOL. My question therefore is, which of the two do you believe is better positioned to perform well in the future and do you have any predictions? *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

about 20% loss on SOL. That hurts. Oh well. It's going to stay there for longer. So much for the quick cash grab.

JustSomeChillDud

underrated. I specialize in SOL and investing in it is just a small part of what you can really do. Futures offer a lot of possibilities if is use with the right tools i

noviwu97

Every successful traders has their way of doing things. My strategy is leaning toward having "controversial" opinion. When something seems incredibly bullish, I sat down and think whether there's a reason to be bearish. Just like when Trump launched memecoin, everybody said it's going to be hyper memecoin season. But I thought what could be better than the US President launching memecoin? So I sold most of my SOL above $250 and most of my Fartcoin above $2. Then on September 2025 everybody was bullish. But any serious traders would have tracked MSTR and BMNR mNav and it's been down only. So I sold most of my BTC above $110k and shorted ETH because I no longer hold ETH. And it's indeed has been going down since then.

jekpopulous2

It’s even worse. To submit blocks validators have to pay a voting fee. Half of the fee is burned and the other half gets payed to a lead validator that orders all the POH transactions. The more SOL staked with a validator the higher the chance they get chosen as the leader. The result is that the biggest validators take SOL from the little validators, stake that SOL and get even bigger, which increases their chance to earn even more fees from smaller validators. It’s a flywheel that makes a few massive validators tons of money while small validators are going into the red or barely breaking even. The entire fee structure is a grift by the Solana Foundation.

WrathofTitus

Everyone? All the normies are buying gold and silver at the top like they always do. I sold all my silver a month ago and bought more BTC & SOL. You're blaming President Trump for liquidity cycles. The Fed is on the cusp of printing more money and with a new Fed chairman coming in May, money is about to be very cheap and assets are about to be very risk-on.

1st place: Bitcoin (DOGE) 2nd place: Altcoins (SOL, MEW) 3rd place: Stocks (phantom shares, manipulation) 4th place: Real Estate (property tax, forfeit, government owned) 5th place: Gold (Tungsten, counterfeit) Last place: Fiat (debt)

Enough_Angle_7839

Nice breakdown. The compression you’re describing around 135–145 really highlights how SOL is sitting in a classic decision zone. I especially agree on the point about volume – the lack of exhaustion spikes does lean more toward controlled accumulation rather than distribution. One additional angle to consider is how this technical setup fits into the broader narrative battle between speed and stability across L1 ecosystems. A lot of what we’re seeing in Solana price action reflects that ongoing debate. There’s a good recent deep dive on this exact theme that connects market structure with the bigger fundamental picture: [https://open.substack.com/pub/btcusa/p/stability-vs-speed-the-two-futures?r=6y5uc8&utm\_campaign=post&utm\_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true](https://open.substack.com/pub/btcusa/p/stability-vs-speed-the-two-futures?r=6y5uc8&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&showWelcomeOnShare=true) Would be interesting to hear your take on how macro sentiment could influence a breakout above 145 if it happens.

intelw1zard

SOL max getting butthurt iit

No_Giraffe_4647

Crypto is a new tech that offers lots of opportunities but it is still soon to invest unless you see something really big emerging with a chance to get closer on the very long run to BTC or ETH. Until then only these ones as well as SOL are the ones leading the market. The real issue is that there are too many projects and not enough investors as things need to be squared by regulators. My guess is that the ones with a real world purpose, with most active and largest delopper communities may progress and get XX multiplier. For the other coins it is just hype over influencers and marketing strategy which is creating a FOMO effect on short term, then the rug get pulled at some point.

Historical_Use2861

In the crypto market, every day there’s someone with a new theory about why you should buy or sell. The only coins I truly trust for the long term are BTC, ETH, and SOL

Key observations: • Volume: Steady participation without exhaustion spikes, often associated with accumulation phases rather than distribution. • Momentum (MACD): A bullish crossover has formed, with the histogram remaining positive, suggesting improving momentum. • Price Structure: Price is compressing below the $145 resistance while holding above prior support zones. Scenarios to watch: • A high-volume acceptance above $145 could shift market structure and open continuation toward higher levels. • Failure to hold above $135 would suggest the range remains intact, with prior demand zones below coming back into play.

Revenantjuggernaut

Basically I moved my BTC to acquire ETH and SOL

Revenantjuggernaut

So my logic. I just started Aug. and I’m like fucking what’s his name in the movie rain man I feel like. I really enjoy day/swing trading or whatever? I started off with 200$ found out quickly the fees are a bitch so 4 days later I had over 600 called my brother asked him for a grand wich he gave it to me. So from Aug 14 to Oct 10th got arristed like 3am so I had no clue when I got out I didn’t have little over 7,000 anymore…. Less then 3,000. So my point that I’ve noticed is working for me is. Didn’t have a lot at all to start out with so I didn’t have Mitch BTC I just studied how to read and interpret 🕯️ and a few what are they called? MACD and shit. Like yall said BTC is king and country why eventually I’ll have 40-50% of my bag BTC. SO LONG STORY SHORT!!!! lol I had $1400 into BTC and my gut and things I was noticing and hearing they were screaming ETH and SOL so i reallocated started accumulating ETH 2,700-2,900 lol was like .85 into and it jumped to 3300 but!!! Yah boy just locked in his first whole ETH got like 7-8 SOL avg buy in like 140. Being the markets been sideways as shit. I just focused on positioning for when it all comes back up and shoot man for little meager amount I have I’m pretty happy excited for the next coming years. Sorry for babbling ran outta my happy meds for a little too long so I’m readjusting. Ok good talk thanks for lettin me share 😂

Appropriate-Talk-735

For short term you can pick another coin for sure. For longer term you expose yourself to too much risks IMO. SOL is my 2nd coin to hold long term.

Revenantjuggernaut

Yeah with that I’d grab 1 whole SOL if your planning on adding more great! BTC and ETH SOL can go wrong. BTC is king and country! When I move you move!!! Just like that. SOL is so asshole fast when I transfer SOL literally it’s there immediately it’s insanely under valued. Then there’s ETH it needs no introduction

StopBitchinStartLivn

Awesome, that’s already very similar to how I trade anyway. Question for you though, BTC has quite a low daily range, only trading between like 2-4% daily. Would you advise against a coin like DOT with a significantly higher ADR% whilst following BTC’s forward momentum? Or SOL for a slightly higher ADR% with a bit more liquidity than DOT?

SOL the "ETH killer" lol

redblddrp

you really just need a dust amount of SOL for gas you can swap a tiny bit of any token you already have into SOL instead of buying more some wallets let you do this directly or you can use a simple aggregator like Rubic to convert a few cents worth into SOL without touching a KYC exchange just make sure you keep that small SOL balance for future fees

StatisticalMan

Ethereum is the new SOL except it you know actually works and is scalable and decentralized.

romik2821

Thank you for providing this info 🙏 90% people just yapping here and not running Chatgpt5, Gemini pro for multiple hours a day to get Fundamentals of the ETH , SOL, XRP Etherium going to change our financial ERA!!! Big players like GOOGLE, META, MICROSOFT etc have to joint Blockchains or they would loose business...

DepartedQuantity

Not just that. You need $20,000,000 in SOL "staked" just to break even. I say "staked" because there isn't even any slashing on Solana so nothing is really at stake. You also need to be co-located in a data center to meet the hardware and network requirements. Etc. Etc. Centralized money is now placing their bets on Canton, which is unfortunate as the media continues to spin this as a good thing.

DifficultyMoney9304

I know crypto.. i've been in it long enough to see similar vaporware your referring to blowup 90%+ alts are not it. Unless they are ETH or maybe SOL.

thelawenforcer

No, it's apparently the stake you need to be in the validator set, IE you get to produce blocks. Apparently you use a out $300 a day in gas for votes etc, so it costs $100k in SOL annually in gas fees to run a Solana validator.

alterise

To be fair, it’s more accurate to say you need about that much $ in SOL delegated to you to breakeven, not that it costs ~$20m a year. It’s still stupid high amount that no regular person should be expected to achieve. Any amount less than that and you’re subsidising the network.

Beneficial_Major9999

ALGO, ADA, ATOM . the sub said these were the future and that SOL was trash circa 2021 lol The subs hatred is now ZCash , let’s see what happens next

MiltronB

He has enough for 1 SOL and some dust. Te fact that it's a whole one makes it harder (psichologically) to sell it. I would even name it. Something like "Flumby".

uex_platform

Not answering as a retail user here, but from a platform perspective. We’re UEX US, a very young (a few months old) exchange startup. From what we see, the most commonly staked assets are ETH, SOL, and ADA because they offer relatively easy access to liquidity without long lockups. Some of the higher-yield staking opportunities are on assets like ATOM, which has a longer unbonding period (around 21 days). For staking rewards to actually matter, you generally need a meaningful position and a long-term view. If someone holds an asset they believe in for multiple cycles, earning 5–6% while keeping exposure can make sense. Short-term trading often ends up wiping out whatever staking gains you would have gotten. On our side we also offer “savings accounts,” which are basically a simpler alternative to staking, with yields in the ~3.5% to 16% APY range depending on the asset. Not advertising or dropping links — if anyone’s curious you can just check the profile. We’re a new product and very open to communication both video and audio, feedback etc.

gigabyteIO

The upside is 90% of all ALGO are now in circulation and it has a capped supply unlike ETH/SOL. It has probably the best underlying cryptography in all of crypto and is one of the only truly quantum secure chains. Silvio Micali and Chris Piekart are no joke.

BeginningMost6014

"becoming?" BTC is not meant to be SOL.

Internal_Resort5451

Staking definitely feels like free money until you zoom out and realize most of the return is just offsetting inflation and volatility, but I still like having idle coins working. I’m mainly staking SOL right now and getting around 6 to 7 percent depending on the validator, plus a bit of ATOM around 8. On Solana I prefer staking through a wallet instead of an exchange since you keep control of your keys, and I’ve had a smooth experience doing it in Solflare because it makes picking validators and tracking rewards pretty simple. Nothing life changing, but over time it adds up more than letting assets just sit there.

bronko322

Staking SOL and DOT.

MinuteHelicopter2059

SOL

Leynnox

Staking SOL only, 6.4% APY.

KipAndrew

tbh running 5 parallel sips is kinda diluting it. i stick to 2 coins i actually have conviction in—been doing SOL and SEI lately since SEI feels way oversold for an L1. spreading too thin just means you catch less upside when one actually runs

Green_Ad9723

Everything works perfectly on the Kraken BTC SOL SUI network, tested.

TheRicFlairDrip

the same custodian holding an BTC ETF doesnt have plenty of altcoins to choose from, ETH, XRP, SOL and LINK maybe. Those arent even altcoins anymore if you ask me, they are crypto blue chips.

MemeyOreos

doing SOL and SEI mostly. SOL gets like 7% but SEI's been 12-15% which is solid for just letting it sit there doing nothing

robmeetspeople

ETH and SOL are being used to build the future of financial transactions. BTC will be an asset like gold, so it on what use cases matter to you. If BTC is an option in work retirement accounts, I expect it moons.

No_South_9912

900 BTC, 600 ETH, 300 SOL, $200 for random alt coins.

Maximum-Surround8969

Lmao some are making it their 3rd hold next to BTC, ETH, SOL, FART

No_South_9912

BTC, ETH, SOL are the "investment grade" coins according to major brokerages. That's why they offer ETPs. Then there's XRP, DOGE, LTC, HBAR offered as "3rd party" ETPs. Then there's the coins with no ETPs offered, only owned by those heavily into the crypto ecosystem.

Routine-Reception747

The $CICAIA rabbit hole on Solana feels familiar if you’ve been around meme cycles long enough. Stuff like this is why I’ve been paying more attention to exchanges that actually make the grind a bit more fun instead of just stressful. BYDFi’s been popping up for me lately with things like a Lucky Wheel where you can win SOL and SUI, plus their New Year trading challenge sharing a $40,000 prize pool. If you’re already deep in Solana plays, those extras kind of add up.

Key_Luck5320

Every time Bitcoin pushes higher and the greed index lights up, the market energy completely shifts. I try not to FOMO too hard, but if I’m trading anyway, I prefer using exchanges that give something back. BYDFi’s current events like the Lucky Wheel with SOL and SUI rewards, the $40,000 New Year trading challenge, and the $20,000 Trading Treasure Hunt caught my attention. It feels more balanced to get incentives while navigating these high-greed conditions.

Weekly-Activity-2898

When fear and greed swings back to greed, it usually means people are jumping in faster than they should. I’ve been trying to stick with platforms that at least reward the activity during these hype phases. BYDFi’s been doing things like a Lucky Wheel where you can win SOL and SUI, plus a New Year trading challenge sharing a $40,000 prize pool. It doesn’t remove the risk, but it makes trading during these greedy moments a bit more worthwhile.

ThrowRA-hamburger

lol fair but some chains have actual utility now. SEI's parallel processing is legit different from the 2021 garbage, been accumulating it and SOL for that reason

Superb_Bee_1194

Fear and greed are just emotions—don't let them run your wallet. Stay smart. I usually look for simple ways to get extra profit, like spinning the BYDFi Lucky Wheel (S6). Getting SOL or SUI is a real asset gain, not just an index numbe

Muircure

My average is at 100K, although I went longer $SOL this year; projecting outperformance over the next 3-5 years

The-Happy-Mannequin

I have been guilty of jumping into the alt coin hype and have learned an expensive lesson... Unless you are the lucky or incredibly smart .5%, stay away from alt coins. 80%+ Should go to Bitcoin. 10%+ ETH. A few percent in SOL. XRP is ok but I'd keep any alt coin investment outside of the top 10 at less than 3%.

whodkne

Buy some Bitcoin or eth and some of a popular alt like SOL or SUI... Alt season is still coming

Escapement_Watch

BTC is not above your budget. Get some BTC/ETH/SOL ignore the rest. win in 5-10 years. slowly DCA every month and use cold storage.

Escapement_Watch

Pulse chain is just a shitty eth. If you wanna buy pulse just stick with eth. Sol will be 1000 dollars one day....long term. could be 1 year could be 100 years from now. and if it hits 1000 dollars it will hit 10,000 dollars. It could be in 1 year or 100 years from now. But it will get there. Not if just when. BTC/ETH/SOL your good to stack and hold forever. Stake your solana for 7% returns and eth for 3%. btc makes its own returns by pumping hardest.

Post is by: FastVideo9700 and the url/text [ ](https://goo.gl/GP6ppk)is: /r/CryptoMarkets/comments/1qd1e8p/advice_for_alt/ Down about 72% in pulsechain. (Yes a risky alt and yes I learned my lesson). Would it be wise to pull out and transfer what I have of that into BTC, ETH, or SOL. (I also hold xrp & sui). I don’t think pulse-chain will ever be where I bought it at. This was my first cycle and I’m still learning. I just feel like it’s going to plummet, and taking 30ish% of my money out , transfer it to either of those & hold long term (besides sol) might make more sense? Looking for honest helpful feedback of suggestions. *I am a bot, and this action was performed automatically.

cedarrapidsiaus

Yeah i mean why would anyone be obligated here? I wasn't referring to obligation so I'm not sure why you are bringing that up. I was mentioning how using Ripple/XRP would benefit others, not that others have to use it. Tokenization is coming, a new enhanced efficient cross border payments system is coming and inevitable as long as the worlds tech hasn't disintegrated. If you think JP Morgan is going to be the King of the future of cross border payments and tokenization and offer better solutions and products, then invest in JP Morgan i hope. Good look to JP Morgan finding the liquidity and trust to move the worlds money and catching up to other blockchains years ahead of them. And no matter what a JP Morgan blockchain will always be Centralized because its OWNED BY JP MORGEN. This can work for people who chose to bank with JP Morgen, but that's where its use case ends. People that don't want to use or trust JP Morgan or any other bank or companies' centralized blockchain product are much more likely to use a product that is free from banking, government, and business influence (DECENTRALIZED). Also, JP Morgan can create its own blockchain (any bank or business can) and still use XRP, SOL, XLM, ETH, HBAR, and other cryptos' software. Its called interoperability. Companies with and should build their own blockchains built to there specific needs. Just as they should also turn to others that help them save time & money. I'm betting on both happening. Banks building there own blockchains actually makes it easier for them to integrate with crypto like XRP and XLM through stable coins and interoperability lol. Could XRP go to zero? Of course. My view is that it will be worth a lot more than it is today. If you think it will have no role in the future that's cool. We'll see what happens. You see that article you just posted of BNY? Did you know BNY and Ripple are collaborating? Lol https://www.bny.com/corporate/global/en/about-us/newsroom/press-release/ripple-selects-bny-to-custody-ripple-usd-reserves.html#:\~:text=Ripple%20is%20the%20leading%20provider,%2C%20exchanges%2C%20and%20moves%20value. https://thedigitalbanker.com/bny-mellon-to-hold-reserves-for-ripples-new-stablecoin/#:\~:text=These%20efforts%2C%20if%20successful%2C%20would,regulated%20tools%20for%20value%20exchange. "Bank of New York (BNY) Mellon and Ripple have a strategic, expanding collaboration centered on the integration of digital assets into traditional finance.  Key aspects of their relationship include: * **RLUSD Custody**: BNY Mellon serves as the primary reserve custodian for Ripple's enterprise-grade stablecoin, Ripple USD (RLUSD). This partnership lends credibility and regulatory alignment to RLUSD by having its cash reserves held by one of the world's largest and most trusted global custodians. * **Tokenized Deposits**: Ripple Prime, Ripple's institutional arm, is an early adopter and participant in BNY Mellon's new **tokenized deposit service**. Launched in January 2026, this service allows institutional clients to convert cash into digital tokens on a private blockchain, enabling 24/7, instant settlement for transactions like collateral and margin workflows, which is not possible with traditional banking systems that have cutoff times.

It wasn't that, they transferred all my memecoins to ETH/Solana and stole the ETH/SOL (multi chain wallet, hack in this way can only be done with full access ie, the private key). Support identified pretty quick it was a wallet compromise not a malicious signing. Shit if I had known Google Sign in was completely unsafe I wouldn't have bothered. I wonder why they even offer it. Still, how they got into my browser files is a mystery to me.

pablo_in_blood

If it’s a ‘code’ and not a private key, you are probably SOL. If it’s a private key you can just import it to any hard wallet ( ie trezor) or software wallet.
