And one of the reasons Etheruem has been underperforming was because of greater the competitive economy of more blockchain networks that are doing more marketing, promotions, innovations etc.
I think Etheruem is still levareging on it's past records but with like the of XRP, Solana, Ada have been shortlisted along side Bitcoin on the strategy reserve, it was clear that these projects respective teams are making huge efforts than Etheruem.

Before I started investing in Bitcoin, I tooky time to understand Bitcoin, the progress it's made since it was launched, the potentials it posseses as the mother coin and came to final conclusions that Bitcoin isn't just a coin but a lifestyle. Learning about Bitcoin before investing in it made me make peace with the risks involved and because I know that I stand a better chance of gaining more in Bitcoin, the potential risks didn't discourage me.

Actually, i think that your comment is very prefer in this time. Because we know that bitcoin is one of the best profitable crypto in cryptocurrency world. So if we want to invest bitcoin, i believe that it must be helpful for us. But when we want to invest in bitcoin, we must understand clearly and follow in cryptocurrency market. Because for investment, market position is also very important. Then we can understand when we should long term investment or when we should should short term investment.

Re: Do you see bitcoin as a thrilling investment or a risky bet?

Both... or I should say that Bitcoin is an exciting investment rather than thrilling, and at the same time, a risky investment as well.

It can be a risky investment for those who don't know the crypto market moves. If you know how the market moves for the long run, you will know what you're doing hence, lowering the risk on it. If you know when the possible bull run and bear market is, you will know when to exit and enter. On the flip side, Bitcoin is a very exciting investment because of how volatile it is. Yes, it can give you profit in a short amount of time compared to other asset class, but you can lose money faster as well if you don't know what you're doing.

I think I have to agree with what you said because Binance's influence is very large on BNB, so investors' trust in BNB will always be maintained well and never let go of the grip that has been done so far.
It is clear that Binance will always give the best for BNB because Binance's reputation is there. If BNB falls, then the one who gets a bad reputation is Binance itself.

A year has passed since the movement of BNB, so there is no significant change if you look at the graph above, but at the end of the year there was a big change experienced by BNB where it had reached its ATH, but after that there was a correction which finally reached a price that was no different from a year ago.
Will there be a movement like the one experienced at the end of last year and this year? Of course, it will always be possible because there is still enough time to be able to move well, because everyone is already familiar with BNB.

It doesn't seem like it will be that easy, because for now, POL's position is dropping even more, even at rank 33 while Cardano is at rank 9. Not only that, in the last 24 hours, when most of the altcoins increased in price, only POL actually fell more than -4% in the last 24 hours even though yesterday it had risen and I really hoped this would continue to rise, but it didn't work and in the end it dropped so easily in the last 24 hours. this is really sad. although there is indeed a lot of speculation that POL will be able to rise again during the bull era, I am starting to get very worried because there is no development of the project and there is increasingly less positive news from Polygon.

Indeed, even now we see the market cap is still quite far apart. Maybe that was when Polygon first arrived and it was indeed hyped, and it was expected to be one of the coins that did have high potential. It's just that as time went by, it turned out that they didn't succeed that successfully. and even dropped very drastically. Now, ADA's market cap is around $30,819,350, while POL's is $4,031,301,217, the difference is very far, right? Now POL is even more marginalized.

Yes, there is no hope for Matic to be able to achieve the ability to take over ADA's ranking or take over the market cap. Even now POL is still very down and its price is bad. So the trust of the holders towards POL is getting worse too. The market cap also does not increase drastically, the price, too, being to be worse, It's like it seems to dead.

It seems like it will be very difficult for this coin to rise significantly again. Yes, because there is no definite development from Polygon, right? You said, well what else can we do, we just hope for a little increase, until the number $ 1 will also be very difficult. Unless there is a lot of development and positive news or a lot of influence on POL in the future, or approaching ATH. Because it can be up and down sometimes, and also the presence of good news can pump the price so quickly.

Yes you are right, it will be very difficult for this coin to rise again like other altcoins. so this is spreading rumors about how POL failed for its future and development. but fortunately, this community is quite significant and we don't know how long it can survive this season or not.

because at least, we really partner with some big reliable shops and then enter the world of crypto business which is much more general, including crypto trading.

This thread was created 14 months ago, at that time the price was only that much.
and after more than a year, it turns out that XRP is really able to soar much higher in a very significant time. Now, the current price of RXP is around $ 2.1. This has increased many times compared to the price when this thread was created.

yes at least, XRP can still prove its performance as one of the top altcoins. although at that time the market cap and also the ranking on CMC were also quite small, but now, everything has increased significantly.

Yes from as at when this thread was created about the price of XRP it was very low that people might think it will not grow more than the way it is then  and I noticed that people do not give it much attention like some other alts they were comparing but now is like a skyrocketed coin because I remember when I saw it from 0.5 but now a lot has changed about the coin, I have a limited likeness for alt but I cannot denied when I see one who has done very well, however the coin might still do well again who knows considering what happened.
