There seem to be a standstill in the recent crypto market as investors patiently awaits the bull run. However, I can clearly point out that there are numerous ways to explore crypto projects especially before they get listed on exchanges. It's something I intentionally explored like taking part in token presales, airdrops, Pre-Market trading as well as Launchpool and Launchpad events on crypto exchanges.

I'm amazed at the different user centric and frictionless lending protocols available that's helping to onboard the masses into the DeFi space.

Imagine ZeroLend that's currently trending is a lending protocol within the zkSync ecosystem, their poist for transparent and secure borrowing and lending of digital assets makes for my amazement how blockchain is alternating traditional finance. It makes me think about the Future of blockchain. Will BlockChain ever replace traditional banks?

I think both can coexist together, Blockchain can't replace traditional banking imo not now probably in the future. Though Blockchain could make traditional banking more efficient & more secure. Couldn't find much about Zerolend, but I found it trading here. Is this the project?

That's it! Well, you have a point there, traditional bank may not replace the traditional bank for now but I guess it's a possibility for the future. You seem to have followed the project, right? It's worth looking at.

No. There's no way that it will happen. There's no possibility that it will happen. There's no reason as well.
I saw the project already, and the project isn't that different from other lending protocols that has been there for quite some time. Also, I got some tokens from the airdrop.

Do you think that authorities will allow this to happen? Do you think that the government will allow this to happen? TBH, I don't see any valid reasons as to why people always think that traditional banks will be replaced. Like what others said, they can both coexist together, but I don't see traditional banks being replace now, in the next 10 years, in the next 50 years or maybe in the next 100 years.

Lending platforms in cryptocurrency will remain as an alternative way for those who know how to use it to borrow some money. Not all knows how to use it especially those old people who find borrowing in banks more comfortable. Also include the fact that in terms of trust, traditional banks are more trustworthy (for others) compared to these lending platforms. Overall, it will not be replaced, but an alternative way would be better and that's why these lending platforms exists.

2024= Now bitcoin price is $63300 at halving after one year bitcoin price...........?

The most realistic answer to that is Bitcoin's price will at least double during the bull run. I don't see it going up to as high as ~$180,000 which is almost 3x it's price after the halving event.

As the price goes even higher, the multiplier decreases as well, and in the next bull run, we might see Bitcoin's price being doubled only. I will not be surprised though if we will see Bitcoin's price going up 3x it's price during the halving event which is at around $189,000. Will it happen? Realistically speaking, it's a bit impossible, but still, anything can happen, and I would be happy if that happens, so does other Bitcoin holders out there.

It's unexpected good news, although i hope all of it actually goes to the FTX victim. After all, the victim gain some stress and spend decent time to fill report of their losses. Your opinion is greatly appreciated.

It is really unexpected, but are investors expected to regain trust in this exchange after they get reimbursed? I doubt.

There is no second chance to make a good first impression.

Most of those who lost their money will not regain the trust of the project anymore, but I still believe there are some stupid investors out there that will think "Oh, they gave us our money back, and everybody deserves a second chance. I will invest into them again." 100% sure of that.

Those who experience losses on the project might not invest on it again, but newbies who just came in and invests into crypto and doesn't know what's the past of this project might invest on this (that if the project became popular again). Those who don't know what happened to this project might still invests on this one because "maybe" they find it promising, but for those who saw what happened (including me), I will never touch this project at all.

Like you, I also don't believe in second chances especially when you affected millions of people that lost billions of dollars. I guess it's just good that they will reimburse their money, and I hope that they will really do it and for me, they need to give their money back plus some compensation as well because of how traumatizing it is for the investors. I mean we know that some are greatly affected by what happened mentally.

    -   The use of demo trading is a good way to ensure that the funds that we enter into the trading exchange platform are not immediately wasted. Actually, just last week, because I wanted to learn futures trading, I first practiced demo trading to know where and how I could get a profit from it.

Because I know it's not that easy to get earnings here. Although I already have some ideas and knowledge about trading, that's why I decided to try to enter the futures trading activity.

It's good that you started with demo account first before using real money in trading.
For some, using demo account first seems to be working for them. That isn't the case for me. I also tried using demo account before doing trading, but I always end up with a loss.

Based on my experience, your emotions in both using the demo account and the real money in trading is very different. In using you demo account, you seem like you don't care at all if you lose your money because after all, it's just fake money. You don't care even if you're making mistakes or losing that money because it's only on demo account. That isn't the case when you're doing trading using your real money anymore because emotions are helpful to make better decisions. That's my problem when I'm trading. I'm letting my emotions control me hence, I ended up making some stupid and bad mistakes that caused me to lose all of my capital (or at least a huge portion of it).

At the end of the day, demo account is helpful still, but not for all.

Someone has said that before and in this year bitcoin has hit all time high twice. At first it hit $70k to surpassed the previous All Time High of $69k and secondly it hit $73k as the second All Time High so if you are saying that we won't see another one again, I would not doubt you because it has been predicted by others too. But many people are still waiting for the prediction of $100,000 All Time High in the year or early next year.

During the bull run in 2021, I really thought that it was at that time where Bitcoin will reach $100,000, but I was completely wrong.
This time, I'm pretty sure that it will reach that price.

I've already heard it multiple times already. This bull market might be the last time, blah, blah blah. I heard it in 2021, and now we are nearing for the bull run to happen yet again. Well, like what you said, many predicted that this might be the last bull market that we will be seeing. I don't think that it will be the last though, and I don't see any reasons as to why there are people who are thinking that this will be the final bull run in the whole crypto space. Anybody can predict though.

They might be correct, they might not. One thing's for sure though. Those who will sell during the bull market that might happen months from now will surely get profit.

Prediction 1: $57,050.00

So as an individual how do you plan to have a secured job considering that every job is at risk?

Like the famous quote says, "The trend is your friend."
This is applicable in the market and it's a big help for us investors, but it can also help other people other things as well.

What's the trend right now? AI, right? Right now, many companies are using AI to maximize what they're doing with only minimal effort with minimal number of employees. What's the best thing to do to have a secure job? Leverage AI. Learn how to use AI in order for us to have a job. I know that this technology will affect many industries. From photography to video editing and we've seen tech sectors laying off many employees already because they want to integrate AI with their business because that means lesser employees and lesser cost.

Learning and maximizing the use of AI to our advantage for me is the best way for us to have a secure job. Right now, nobody is safe (aside from those that are in the medical sector) because anytime can lose their job because of this technology.
