"hi bud, is there still going to be a bull run this year?"

😂 Noob question yeah!, but thats what a dude asked me this evening, he's a newbie though, he joined crypto late January this year (2024), I wasnt the one who introduced crypto to him, but he approached me one time in February, and I assisted him on buying his first bitcoin, and since then, he's been investing on his own.

But I was surprised when he asked me if there was still going to be a bull run this year, I paused for a while cus I didn't know what to answer him, I've never discussed anything concerning or patterning to bull run with him before, so I was a kind of puzzled when he asked me that.

Later on, I simply told him I don't know, that I can't predict the market, but then, I could notice he wasn't satisfied with that answer, he probably expected me to say "yes", as a way for him to reassure himself of his expections, but then again, I couldn't lie to him.

I am as well putting out the same question out here for the  community, is there still going to be a bull run this year? Or should we just pack our bags and go home? 😬😁

I would say yes but when will it start is difficult to predict. I don't see the current price as a strong support. Proll 48k will be that strong support that would create demand for a potential rally. Just a personal opinion but let's see how it plays out

 Reliable platforms like Bitget earlier expressed intent to list this token on its platform, this will undoubtedly propel the token to further spotlight. It is currently trading live on there with good price action thus far.

Slerf could rival Bonk due to the attention its getting recently. The afore-mentioned exchange did not just get it listed but has decided to support participant of its presale from the mistake of the 10 million dollar worth of the token. The first donation was distributed few days ago and the second phase is cooking. I will keep the SLERF close for sure.

Not sure what excites everyone else about the Future of Web3 but looking into the concept of interoperability, the ability of different blockchains, protocols, and systems to communicate and work together seamlessly, I believe the future of Web3 is interoperable, connecting blockchains, Metaverses, and the Internet excites me about technology in general.

However, not everyone who's enthusiastic about the whole idea of different blockchain concept springing up have all the funds to throw around as it were. Yet, these makes me appreciate the idea of exchange launchpool which allow users to stake their Crypto assets to earn new tokens from new projects.

So I found an exchange announce launchpool so their users could stake BGB to grab a share of $10,000 worth of ZK.  It's interesting but I'm more interested in reading your experiences using crypto launchpools before I can decide to participate in the launchpool event. Please share.

I would say you should give it shot cos I am also taking part and would also suggest you always buy the exchange token whenever you have the chance cos the higher the number of your BGB the more tokens could be airdropped to you. I have been a fan of exchange tokens for launchpool and launchpad airdrop opportunities. I have used bnb in the past but the my current holding isn't enough for a descent airdrop hence I recently stick with BGB for airdrop opportunities before its price explode again.

Stats from last year's Coingecko market report reveal a decline in NFT adoption compared to fungible tokens and the 2022 trading volume. This prompts consideration for aggressive investments in the sector. Noteworthy NFT-integrated projects like Mavia and the recent Animalia, an online NFT trading card game, have emerged.

As a non-gamer navigating the unpredictable crypto space, the drop in last year's NFT trading volume to 11.8 billion, in contrast to 2022's 26.3 billion, raises concerns. However, closely monitoring these NFT-related projects could prove rewarding if a different scenario unfolds this year.

The question lingers: Will this year bring a shift, or are there indices signaling a potential bullish sentiment for NFTs and their related projects?

The price of tokens, like other market assets, is determined by supply and demand. These tokens are rare and sought after by players, collectors and investors who are willing to pay for them.  We live in the era of collectibles, so these tokens continue to gain popularity. So don't be scared or disappointed. The main thing is to find the right choice.

I am actually not scared or disappointed but trying to be careful. I was a beneficiary of STEPN NFT in the last bull circle and would like to consider some of these new NFT related project once more and your insight has been valuable. You may also wanna check this Animalia and share more insight since it's also NFT related project.

Btw I would like to have a legendary badge like you haha.

 If we do speak about $SHIB like coins then it isnt really that something easy that you could really be able to found on. Why? among all of the coins that been
available on the market excluding those who do launches up from time to time then there's no way for you to determine on which one.

Tbh SHIB was unique but I feel it has seen some healthy competition recently. PEPE was massive and could be building something to outperform it previous price action. Solana ecosystem is also looking to be the highlight of this imminent bull run hence we have to put anything built on it blockchain on our radar. I did buy MYRO and Pyth on Bitget solely because of their listing speed and have taking profit on two occasions. So yeah we may not see another SHIB now but taking advantage of decent price actions from the available atm will keep us financially afloat.

Farming airdrops is just like gambling with random coins. Many of them are new coins with unclear future, we don't know if it will have values or not. If we want to boost potential holding, it is better to buy top coins in trusted exchanges.

I don't think OP is referring to random airdrops like that though, he's likely referring to early user airdrops like what happened with Jupiter, Celestia, etc. I think those kinds of airdrops are worth a shot, but it takes a while before the airdrop happens (if it ever happens). They are still random, but the chances of your capital becoming something is higher than buying random shitcoins on the market IMO. Especially if you decide on speculating on a popular network that has tons of activity compared to new chains that promised new airdrops right off the bat.

I think airdrop and the recent introduction of moblie app for mining of some projects can keep us in good financial position. Tho, they are not always very rewarding as anticipated but worth the shot. AVIVE was the recent that I benefited and it was worth it. The ongoing Bitget Mini app prize wheel is another on my radar. You could call me an airdrop hunter hahaha but it has been worth it particularly in the bear market.

Just curious, guys. What projects have caught your attention on Solana lately? It seems like there's a lot of exciting stuff happening on this chain, most of which I'm not aware of.

Personally, I've been exploring a few new projects on Solana, and one that stands out is Amulet Protocol. It's a yield protocol with built-in risk protection, using a "Risk-Adjusted Yield" approach to balance potential gains with peace of mind. Additionally, they have this "AmuShield" feature that monitors your assets 24/7 and triggers emergency retrievals if something goes wrong. It sounds pretty cool for someone like me who's always a bit nervous about DeFi.

Their token is currently listed on major exchanges like Bitget, Gate, and more. However, the token serves various crucial roles within the protocol, extending beyond being a trading asset. It participates in governance, incentivizes depositing into their vaults, and allows users to earn rewards.

So, just putting AMU out there as a potential watchlist contender. What do you guys think?

I am not fading on anything on Solana just yet cos they currently seem to have the magic wand to make things happen atm. AMU is surely landing in wishlist  and thanks for sharing mate.

Fortunate to receive MANTA tokens in an airdrop, securing three additional airdrops by holding the token 🪂:

- $SBL @ShoebillFinance
- $LAB.m @LayerBankFi
- $CAPX @CapxFi
- $ART @TheYuliverse (campaign points)

MantaNetwork has seen TVL surge over the past weeks, exceeding $900M – over 10 times its mid-December figure.

Their seed round was led by Polychain. CoinFund and ParaFi led our strategic round. MANTA recently had an equity round as well, that Polychain and Qiming led.

The project has recieved massive support from top cexs including Binance, Bitget and others.

Bitget, in particular, is hosting a rewarding event for MANTA depositors, offering a share of 40,000 BGB during this exciting promotion.

Overall bullish, Manta Network stands poised for even greater heights in the year to come. The successful integration of Celestia's data availability layer and the continued development of the Manta New Paradigm are just a glimpse into the future of ZK technology that the project is building

Were you also part of the recipient of Manta airdrop? I was fortunate to take part and had to explore the ongiong event on Bitget for Nanta tp earn more.
