Today I dive deeper on Cashonize, a complete BCH wallet to connect with DeFi world. Cashonize is a product built by Matthew Geukens which helps to navigate CASHTOKENs. I hope you enjoy the reading. | 2025-01-16 |
I use to go fishing at a nearby river that has several small island on it and I thought it would be a great spot to hide the only cold wallet I had on one of them. When I headed tonthat Island with my kayak, a fully loaded ore transport ship passend and when the waves Hit my boat from the side, my kayak flipped. I made it out of the boat and when I got Back in, I noticed my metal wallet was Not in my vest anymore. I also lost my smartphone this way. This means I dont own any BTC that I purchased pre 2025. Thats all. I wont answer any PMs. | 2025-01-16 |
Based on connection issues and the monero node trackers, I believe someone is carrying out attacks on monero nodes that have onion addresses using the HSDirSniper attack for tor. Specifically, I personally believe they are targeting my node i host at irsdotgovszfg73zsmi5nqguhn66sysmas7u7iwftmcuaw6so2erwdqd.onion.
Here's the paper for HSDirSniper: [https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3589334.3645591](https://dl.acm.org/doi/10.1145/3589334.3645591)
TL;DR, an attack sends bogus addresses to an HSDir Tor relay to cause it to have to clear its cache, causing all onion services that use that HSDir to be unroutable. An attacker can find the HSDir relays of a specific hidden service an attack them.
You can see [monero.fail](http://monero.fail) where a portion of onion addresses have the same timing of failure status.

What Lies Ahead for Bitcoin in the Upcoming Period? What Happened in the 2021 Altcoin Rally? How Long Will the Altcoin Rally Last and How Will It Unfold?
I will answer the questions of what we should do to not miss the altcoin rally, whether an altcoin rally is necessary, and more in detail.
First, let's examine what happened during the 2021 Bull Market and the Altcoin Rally, particularly in the last quarter of the Bull Market, and look at what occurred in Bitcoin Dominance:
In the 2021 Bull Market, the most enthusiastic phase of the altcoin rally started in the last quarter of the Bull Market, specifically in January 2021. At that time, Bitcoin dropped by 30% from $42,000 to $29,000, and Bitcoin dominance fell for 5 months, decreasing from 70% to 40%. After this drop to $29,000, Bitcoin rose by 2x from $29,000 to $65,000. However, altcoins, which had been lagging behind Bitcoin for a long time, surged 50x to 100x, marking their real rally.
Looking back at the 2021 Bull Market, from the March 2020 crash at $3,150 until January 2021, Bitcoin increased about 13 times, while altcoins were stagnant. When Bitcoin dominance reached its peak at 70% in January 2021, and dominance started to fall, Bitcoin only increased by 2x, while altcoins surged 50x to 100x.
Regarding Bitcoin dominance, it is inaccurate to say that "once Bitcoin dominance reaches 70%, an altcoin rally begins." Bitcoin dominance first hit 70% in July 2019, and it remained stuck between 70% and 60% until January 2021.
In the current period, most altcoins are down by 50% from their recent highs. Many altcoins completed their rallies before the 50% drop, and back in December 2023, when Bitcoin dominance was at 55%, people were already saying, "Bitcoin and Bitcoin dominance are at 55%, the altcoin rally is coming soon, let’s prepare our retirement portfolio." I shared my thoughts on this back in December 2023.
Here is an excerpt from my December 2023 post:
___
When Bitcoin dominance hit 70% in July 2019, we said, "Bitcoin and Bitcoin dominance are rising together, dominance may have peaked, and the altcoin rally will start soon." We then added the top 10 altcoins of that time to our "altcoin portfolio" and awaited the drop in Bitcoin dominance to trigger the altcoin rally.
1- ETH: $363 buy, after crash $115, -68% loss
2- XRP: $0.31 buy, after crash $0.17, -45% loss
3- LTC: $145 buy, after crash $36, -75% loss
4- EOS: $8 buy, after crash $2, -75% loss
5- TRX: $0.04 buy, after crash $0.01, -70% loss
6- ADA: $0.1 buy, after crash $0.03, -70% loss
7- XLM: $0.12 buy, after crash $0.04, -70% loss
8- XMR: $121 buy, after crash $43, -64% loss
9- LEO: $2.1 buy, after crash $0.76, -64% loss
10- DASH: $190 buy, after crash $38, -80% loss
As you can see, our altcoin portfolio, made when Bitcoin dominance was at 70%, ended up with an average of -70% losses. If we had invested a significant amount into this portfolio without leaving any cash aside, during the long bear market of 1.5 years, our funds would have been severely eroded. As the market began to rise and we believed the bull market had started, many of us would have invested all our funds, only to see a 70% drop again. Our psychology would have been severely affected, family relationships strained, and our sleep disturbed. Some would have irrationally turned to gamble-like thinking, trying to recover their losses by putting all their remaining funds into the market, risking everything.
I believe there is a great deal of misinformation on Twitter regarding the interpretation of Bitcoin dominance, which has led many to be misdirected. I think that Bitcoin dominance may be approaching a peak around 55%. The altcoin rally in the final quarter of the next bull market could be triggered by Bitcoin dominance falling from 55% to 25%-30%. Personally, I believe this scenario will unfold during the final quarter of the next bull market. However, my main question is: how do we know for sure that Bitcoin dominance's rise will trigger the altcoin rally? We have seen such events before, but we cannot know with certainty when it will happen again.
Even now, when Bitcoin and Bitcoin dominance are both rising, and altcoins are falling, people are prematurely declaring the bull market has definitely begun and the altcoin rally is imminent, which I believe is highly dangerous and misleading.
___
Three months after my December 2023 post, most altcoins have experienced a 50% drop.
Back when Bitcoin was around $16,000-$17,000, I predicted that during the upcoming rise, Bitcoin and Bitcoin dominance would rise together, meaning altcoins would see relatively less profit and that altcoins would likely see losses against Bitcoin. I switched to Bitcoin, and when Bitcoin dominance hit the 50%-58% range, I began shifting back into altcoins and transparently shared my altcoin portfolio.
Looking ahead, if the 2019 intermediate rally had unfolded differently, we would have expected a 50% drop in Bitcoin and a 70% drop in altcoins before the peak was reached. Initially, I thought we might see a drop from $42,000 to $29,000, but I was wrong. Now, Bitcoin has surpassed the previous peak of $65,000 without experiencing a similar crash, but most altcoins have completed their intermediate rally and are in the decline phase.
As for Bitcoin dominance, it first reached 70% in July 2019, and after a 530-day squeeze between 70% and 60%, it eventually fell to 40%, followed by a 4-month altcoin rally. Today, Bitcoin dominance has been stuck between 50% and 55% for around 200 days. A decline from this level could trigger an altcoin rally lasting about 4 months.
My personal view is that the bull market will follow the pattern of previous cycles, with the most likely peak happening between April and May 2025.
This suggests that after the summer of 2024, we should expect the rise to begin, and the altcoin rally could start by the end of 2024. However, if we experience an unprecedentedly long bull market, it could extend until the end of 2025. This is also a possibility, and if this happens, our expectations will be delayed by 6-7 months. Given the uncertainty, we should remain cautious, avoid margin trading, and focus on spot trading to protect ourselves from any unexpected crashes.
Looking at the altcoin rally in 2021, examining the coins that performed well, such as Hot, Chz, Avax, Solana, Band, Wrx, Matic, Sand, and Doge, we can analyze how the upcoming altcoin rally may unfold.
In my posts, I typically mention that the altcoin rally in the final 4 months of a bull market will occur in 3 phases. Let’s take a closer look at these phases.
**Phase 1: "Excluding Old Investors"**
After a few months of modest gains, we will witness a sharp 70%-100% increase in altcoins in a single day. This will be followed by a 50% drop. During this phase, most people will begin selling their assets, and many will fall into the dangerous mindset of "I sold at the peak, I will never buy again." This will cause many to miss out on the true altcoin rally.
**Phase 2: "Big Regret"**
After the 50% drop, a short-term zig-zag pattern will unfold, lasting around 30 days, with significant gains and losses. This phase will be psychologically exhausting for many investors, as they experience the emotional rollercoaster of regret for missing out on the earlier rally.
**Phase 3: "The Swamp"**
The final phase, which typically lasts 2 weeks, is when altcoins will see an explosive rise of 100%-500% within a short period. This phase is crucial, as it marks the transition from euphoric gains to the beginning of the bear market, with altcoins dropping by 75% from their peak.
---
**Final Thoughts:**
The crypto market is highly volatile, and no one can predict with certainty what will happen next. However, based on historical patterns, I strongly believe that an altcoin rally, similar to what we saw in the 2021 bull market, is inevitable. The influx of new investors into the market is driven by altcoins, and their spectacular rises act as advertisements to draw in new money.
While participating in this market, it’s essential to avoid the "I’ve solved this market" mentality. The most dangerous psychological trap in crypto is overconfidence, which leads many investors to make irrational decisions, and often lose everything.
Ultimately, it is crucial to recognize that in crypto, you are more likely to be the prey than the predator. Properly managing your risk, setting clear goals, and understanding the potential pitfalls can help you navigate this market more successfully.
Be cautious and remain aware of the risks.

Hi everyone, glad to see people rejoicing in the privacy and financial independence that XMR provides. We need to stop the governments of the world(I'm In the USA) from limiting the ability for exchanges to offer XMR to their customers. I used to use Kraken exchange but they delisted XMR awhile ago. The only way I know how to get XMR now is using Unstoppable Swap and TradeOgre. Unstoppable Swap is super inconvenient and also very easy to screw it up and lose your funds.
Tradeogre on the other hand operates like a CEX but requires no KYC. My concern is how long until they get sued or fined into oblivion ? We need to join together and let our governments know that privacy is a god given right. Most people that use XMR are not criminals. Cash is perfectly legal and issued by the government and that is far harder to trace and is involved in far more criminal activity. I'm sick of them progressively taking away our rights and ability to be self sufficient human beings.
Upvote if you agree and if you have more computer programming skills then I do maybe you could help make a simple pre filled out form that we can mass send to our representatives in Washington DC as well as your local and state representatives.
Much love and XMR forever!
PS if you run a business or online store consider accepting XMR to build legit use cases.
Thanks for hearing me out! | 2025-01-17 |

This is the weekly Monero market thread. This thread will be posted every Friday and is meant to help accelerate the adoption of Monero. Due to r/moneromarket having only a fraction of the subscribers of r/Monero, we have decided to create this thread to encourage more individuals to use Monero for product exchanges. Until the market matures, we recommend that the Monero community post their products both in this thread and on r/moneromarket (to ensure growth of that subreddit).
Selling items for Monero will boost your (and Monero's) reputation as a legitimate form of exchange of goods. This is necessary for the growth of Monero, our community, and privacy as a whole.
## Instructions
When you post your product or job listing here, please make sure to:
- Give a description of the item.
- Link to a photo of the item (if it's physical).
- Provide logistics information (such as, location and/or shipping availability).
- Optionally, provide an additional (private) form of communication outside of Reddit (e.g. Bitmessage, u/protonmail, u/tutanota, GPG key).
- Post the price in XMR terms.
Spamming will not be tolerated. Please make sure that listings are legitimate and do not break rule 2."

Hear me out.
Trump is a Bitcoiner and Shitcoiner. But this is why he will be great for overall crypto market with deregulation, less IRS/taxes and monitoring (fed encroachment).
While I know most of you guys are XMR maxis, this deregulation will also help XMR get listed back on the major US exchanges (CoinBase, Binance US correct?
Forgetting privacy and I know many of you are hardcore security and privacy gurus who hate CEXs and hate anything but the thought of DEXs and XMR but getting listed on CEXs is good for XMR price action and liquidity as well as introduction to the masses. Since Gary Gensler will be gone and since Trump will loosen up on taxes, regulation and surveillance of crypto trading, taxes and capital gains, won’t this be an overall boon for XMR?
I’m pretty sure most of the Crypto Exchange bosses such as Brian Armstrong and CZhao are pro freedom, pro privacy and will encourage Trump to go in that direction. Assuming Brian Armstrong and Michael Saylor will join the council also. Pretty sure Trump is pro freedom as well but for all the wrong reasons so he can shill his shitcoins and profit from his scam companies lol. | 2025-01-17 |
This meme is floating around so many platforms is too funny.😂
Vanguard: Bitcoin has no place in retirement portfolios.
The meme- ……. | 2025-01-17 |
There is only one thing I am sure about in the Bitcoin and cryptocurrency markets:
That is, a future Altcoin Rally, like the one that took place between January 2021 and May 2021, is UNAVOIDABLE.
The driving force behind the cryptocurrency market is new investors entering the market. For this engine to keep running, it is essential to attract new investors to crypto.
The best way to attract new investors to crypto is through altcoins. In the most euphoric days of a Bull Market, people don't come because Bitcoin increased 10x in two years, from $15,500 to $150,000. They come because an altcoin has surged 100x in just 2 months. As they see people making incredible money in a very short time, they think, "Everyone is winning, I can win too," and new investors are drawn in.
The hardships and struggles of the old investors who endured the 3-year Bear Market are forgotten. It seems as though people get rich quickly, as if it's an easy path to wealth.
Because of this, during the most euphoric days of the Bull Market, altcoins that rise 50x - 100x are not used as investment vehicles, but as marketing tools. Altcoin Rallies are used to attract new investors to the market and create buyers for altcoins that would be worthless under normal circumstances.
In the cryptocurrency market, us small investors don't make the market rise, nor do we make it fall by selling. When we put money into the market, buy coins as if we're buying a house, and think they’ll never drop, that's when the Bull Market peaks, and in two years, altcoins drop at least 95%. During the Bloody Days of the Bear Market, when we give up, are scared to buy, and lose interest in the market, that's when the rises begin. We have no influence on the market.
Therefore, don’t pay attention to comments like, "everyone is waiting for an altcoin rally, what everyone expects won’t happen, they won’t let it happen." If they want to take our money, if they want to attract new people to the market during a Bear Market that will last 3 years, if they want to create buyers for worthless altcoins, they are OBLIGATED to create an Altcoin Rally.
I am personally certain that the upcoming Altcoin Rally will be visible, the majority of the market will miss it, and when we approach the peak, most people will not wake up from the fairy tale in time and will fall into the swamp as I mention on my previous post. | 2025-01-17 |
Is openmonero.co (the new fork of localmonero.co) legitimate or not? Some are skeptical that it's a scam, but it "feels" legitimate and is easy to use and seems to have recently added one seller who accepts cash by mail for XMR at a 9.4% markup. This is on the expensive side I know, but as more sellers are added, it will get more competitive. Has anyone taken the plunge and tried it out? | 2025-01-17 |
I withdraw 2,600 yesterday to pay off debt and also buy a bike I’ve been looking at for a while. I honestly can’t believe it still, I had already went from 3k to 26k a week before but I lost 22k in one day 😬. Now hopefully I can keep this up and buy a house by eoy.
This is a repost because I didn’t post my positions the first time.
If anyone is wondering what my strategy is reasoning for taking those trades; I don’t have any I’m just a regard who got lucky.
Have a good weekend fellas!

Hey everyone,
I’ve been mining for a while now, and one of the biggest challenges I’ve faced is keeping my mining operations stable after the initial immunity period ends. Once that safety net is gone, things can get unpredictable—getting kicked out of pools.
Whats the solution or tips to that? | 2025-01-18 |
6 hours ago I saw Trump's tweet about the launch of official Trump Coin. Since then have been following the price (I've not invested) it went from $2 to $22 in the span of few hours. The likelihood that turns into $222 is very much there based on how fast it is growing. Anyways, this isn't something that I was hoping to happen and this should not be celebrated. If it was a coin with atleast some utility I'd be okay but this clearly seems like a meme coin to "get rich". Not that majority of the coins don't exhibit the same traits but neither of creators of such coin is the President of THE United States.
Assuming this is true and official Trump Coin supported by Trump, this is going to lead a significant shift from the whole crypto market towards this one coin where the 80% of the coins are held by few wallets. Again if this is real, I predict this coin to be in the top 10 or even in the top 5 in the next 24 hours. (I can't put money where my mouth is, because I don't have money). | 2025-01-18 |
I've been looking at crypto for a long time, and decided to take the plunge in a few months ago. So I'm a new investor but a long time observer.
In the space of a few months, I've made a 20% profit but i don't have much money so it's not a life changing amount.
However, I think I happened to buy during a downturn, and now I'm selling at a high price. I think it'll come back down again soon so I may as well take all my profits now.
I'm at this weird level of investing where I can't invest enough to actually make decent money, but if I invested more, I'd miss it if I lost it. Even if my coins went up 20-30%, that's asking a lot, and it's only £20 per £100, obviously, and with my small amounts, the rewards don't really outweigh the risks.
Even if they go up 100%, I've doubled my money but that would be like getting 1 extra paycheck. That's nice but not exactly life changing and the odds of it going up by 100% is low.
Even Bitcoin, it's over $100k now. For me to double my tiny amount of money, it has to go to $200k. I feel like I'd be waiting a long time just to earn a pretty small amount of money.
XRP is at ATH. I just can't see it doing a 2x or 3x from here
ETH just seems to be bouncing around the same sort of amount. I can't see it suddenly doubling or tripling.
Same for SOL. I've been looking at The Graph which a lot of people were talking up, and it's literally stayed within 10% of its value forever. HBAR goes up by a few pence. XYO feels like it's disappearing. AVAX goes up a bit but again, I just can't see it 2x or 3x.
And any other gains just aren't really worth it.
And lastly, I have a feeling things won't quite take off as big as people think. Bitcoin has been around forever and isn't mainstream. Everything I read about XRP/ETH/SOL/LINK etc is "in the future, in the future, in the future"
I'm not sure when they mean. People said "in the future" 7 or 8 years ago. When? I'm not sure their future is ever coming.
So a bunch of coins might just drop to 0. It's not really worth it for me. | 2025-01-18 |
What a time to be part of the Solana ecosystem! 🚀 After all the challenges and uncertainty, seeing Solana rise and regain its momentum is nothing short of inspiring.
This community has stuck together through thick and thin, showing resilience and belief in the potential of decentralized technologies. From developers building dApps to users supporting the ecosystem, it’s a collective effort that’s paying off.
Let’s celebrate this milestone, but also remember that this is just the beginning. Here’s to an even brighter future for Solana and Web3 as a whole!
How’s everyone feeling about the recent price action and ecosystem developments? Let’s discuss! | 2025-01-18 |

I saw the TRUMP token circulating after he mentioned it on his platform, then when I saw the tweet I basically half ported (25 sol). Saw it going up like crazy, I was up like $5k at some point? Decided to try and sell and when I couldn't sell it due to slippage I panicked and started getting in my head about it being a rug or whatever (idk wasn't thinking straight). Set my slippage to 100% to try and sell the token (very stupid in hindsight and an expensive lesson) and ended up selling my $7k worth of tokens (now worth $60,000) for $44 and I've felt sick all day. Only thing keeping me going is I've ran this up from 0.5 sol and I believe in my ability to bounce back but my god I'm stupid. | 2025-01-18 |

The President's team created these coins out of thin air, they cost nothing to make, gave themselves a bunch, and now they are trading these newly created coins for people's real money. It will eventually rugpull and people are going to be left holding the bag. The same people will complain about holding the bag, but we've seen this story play out a thousand times now, nobody is forcing them to buy this shit. They buy shit and then complain that they are left holding shit. They are themselves to blame. | 2025-01-18 |
Seriously. It's not mentioned anywhere. Jan-Apr are historically the strongest months for ETH, and it's during this time that we start to see it outperform BTC. It's the institutional alt coin. Trump is heavily invested in ETH (pretty much all his projects/NFTs are built on top of it). It hasn't pumped at all yet.
I personally think ETH will end up surprising a lot of people this cycle. Granted, if this is a true bull market, you can buy pretty much anything and make money. I'm excited for 2025 :) | 2025-01-18 |

Solana is incredible technology and has proven today that it has the capacity to handle the largest volume of trades many have seen ever.
But there is a black cloud hanging over its future called pump.fun.
It is fun to gamble with memes. However, there needs to be a lot more control on these token launches. It is giving crypto a black eye, and causing lots of damage to individuals and families.
I don't want to read any stupid replies that say oh look. This guy lost in pump fun and now he's mad.
That is not the case. I am thinking long-term.
Solana is excellent technology. We have to ensure the integrity of that technology is kept intact by implementing tighter controls on pump.fund or somehow removing it all together. | 2025-01-19 |
How do I mine on monero nodo? | 2025-01-19 |
I know a lot of these coins have been peaking for some time now but I’m curious from some of big alt coins which ones you like the most ?(XLM, XRP, SOL, LINK). These are just some of the ones I’m looking into. Thank you | 2025-01-19 |
I found this article: https://medium.com/@ne3s5unpa04u/how-to-stake-bittensor-on-trezor-6c49bca7c2e8
Stating that you can stake bittensor using DappRadar. Has anyone tried this? | 2025-01-19 |
I am an active crypto trader, saw the trump tweet when the coin was $4, and i was half asleep, I thought someone hacked the account and slept again.
Woke up later when the coin was $17, bought around 273 with $5k, and now it's $55, the profit is significant but I somehow believe it will go down again to very low levels when the hype dies.
I have an open short future trade open for SOL at $261. All the trump coin hype surged the price of sol, but now that it's listed on binance, the sole purpose of buying trump with Sol is gone. Where do you think Sol will go from here?
Do you guys think trump forced exchanges like bitby, binance, etc, to list the coin so fast?
Where will the price stop? Price from 0.00xx to $55 for a meme coin is just pure hype imo.
I hope y'all having a good day! | 2025-01-19 |
Please stay on topic: this post is only for comments discussing the uncertainties, shortcomings, and concerns some may have about Monero.
**NOT the positive aspects of it.**
Discussion can relate to the technology itself or economics.
Talk about community and price is not wanted, but some discussion about it maybe allowed if it relates well.
Be as respectful and nice as possible. This discussion has potential to be more emotionally charged as it may bring up issues that are extremely upsetting: many people are not only financially but emotionally invested in the ideas and tools around Monero.
It's better to keep it calm then to stir the pot, so don't talk down to people, insult them for spelling/grammar, personal insults, etc. This should only be calm rational discussion about the technical and economic aspects of Monero.

**How it works:**
Post your concerns about Monero in reply to this main post.
If you can address these concerns, or add further details to them - reply to that comment. This will make it easily sortable
Upvote the comments that are the most valid criticisms of it that have few or no real honest solutions/answers to them.
The comment that mentions the biggest problems of Monero should have the most karma.
As a community, as developers, we need to know about them. Even if they make us feel bad, we got to upvote them.

As of January 19, 2025, Solana (SOL) is trading at $292.15 USD with a market cap of $141.76 Billion | 2025-01-19 |
At the ATH of $293.31 per $SOL, with a market cap of $142bn, Solana has overtaken Tether for number 4 most valuable blockchain in the world.

As mentioned in the title i was wondering what yalls get out strategy is. Regarding the BTC dominance on almost 60% and the rest of the market down this isn't the bull run everyone has been waiting for, so in a matter of days or weeks this money is most likely all gonna flow out of Solana and back into other Coins.
Now, what is your get out strategy on this Pump? In all honesty I've missed out on investing in Trump twice aaand missed out on, well, a whole apartment being paid off ahaha, matter the less I don't think the pump is gonna continue much longer after Trumps inauguration? Altough i've been wondering if maybe we have one last big upwards trend coming to trump and solana later today?

Of course, we'd always like to pick the most successful project, but hindsight is 20/20. Given all the metrics that ETH continues to outperform in, I am more than happy with the bet I’ve taken. **Fuck that, it’s literally up 260% from the bear market**, and all y’all bitches are screaming from the rooftops that it’s dead.
Sure, if you picked one of the 20 out of 100,000 projects that have done well, you could claim you outperformed. Genuinely, well done but I barely pick my nose that accurately. I’m here to make intelligent, long-term asymmetric bets, and ETH is the best of them.
Most importantly, **who is left now?** After these drawdowns and "underperformance," who is still holding or buying ETH? The believers. The ones who have no doubt $10k is achievable..even bearish. The ones who have done the research, seen the metrics, and understand Ethereum's core philosophy. The ones who weren’t shaken out by some 1-in-1,000 hype token.
The longer ETH stays depressed, the larger my peak price target becomes because the only ones left are the people with true conviction.
**TL;DR**: Do the research, build your convictions, open a position, and shut the fuck up. You will never pick the highest-performing tokens. Believe in something more than hype, and you will sleep much better at night.
Also, can we stop shitting on each other, please? This entire space has grown from nothing to almost $4 TRILLION in under 15 years. We can all be successful.
That said, I’m sure there will be plenty of “PricE diDn’T gO Up eTh DeAd” disingenuous comments, to which I will reply: **“stfu.”** | 2025-01-19 |
I was hanging out with an old friend on friday night and completely missed the news.
I saw it only yesterday morning, thinking it was already too late, so i didn't buy.
Seeing the price this morning made me feel like shit.
I am in FOMO mode right now, but i fight it. I don't think it's worth it at this point, but i might be wrong again and it mess with my mind.
Edit: I have decided to stay out. Yes, it may (and probably will) pump again, as other coins will too. My portfolio is less than 1% memecoins and i will just keep DCAing in "real" projects.

Picture the ancient struggle between the mongoose and the snake. The mongoose, agile and cunning, faces off against the snake, a creature of stealth and venom. This conflict symbolizes the battle between freedom and oppression, between the light of liberty and the shadow of control.
In our world, technocrats who leverage surveillance techniques are the snake, coiled and ready to strike at any sign of dissent. Their algorithms and censorship, like the snake's fangs, are poised to enforce their will and silence enemies. Their powers pervasive, their eyes and ears omnipresent, wrapping the people in a digital web of fear and submission.
But just as the mongoose moves with agility and precision, so too can we undermine surveillance. The mongoose's swift movements and keen senses allow it to evade the snake's deadly strikes, and it is through this same nimbleness that we can employ encrypted communications.
Imagine our communication as the mongoose's dance, slipping through the snake's grasp, unseen and undetected. Encryption transforms our words into a code that the prying eyes of the technocrat cannot decipher. The encrypted communications become our weapon, a means to coordinate and resist without fear of interception.
Just as the mongoose clamps its jaws around the snake's head, silencing its venomous threat, our encrypted messages can render technocratic surveillance impotent. The very tool they use to control can be circumvented, and used against them. Through encryption, we reclaim our voices and our freedom, striking a blow against tyranny.
The mongoose's victory over the snake is a testament to the power of agility, resilience and patience. By embracing encrypted communications, we create a network of trust and resistance, a force that technocratic social engineering is impervious to.
With encryption as our ally, we become the mongoose, swift and elusive, outmaneuvering the snake's grip and paving the way to freedom through a peaceful means of resistance.
I am here to tell you: the resistance will be encrypted. | 2025-01-19 |

Donald Trump's advisor launches and rugpulls 'Tiktok coin' and then Melania Trump launches her own memecoin scam. Donald Trump coin immediately pukes down.
Buckle in for the sleaziest, most shameless, most corrupt "pro-crypto" administration
Trump advisor Ryan Fournier launched 'Official Tiktok coin' 2 hours ago and rugged it within an hour
https://preview.redd.it/i8hd6djrx0ee1.png?width=593&format=png&auto=webp&s=d836a98f7c50d4b31a259df59637526188b1d22f

Soon after the rugpull by Fournier, Melania Trump just launched her own coin, and the Donald Trump coin immediately dumped by 50%

How are people buying melania coin??? Not matter what I do on phantom wallet I can’t buy, it’s too slow, probably too much traffic, I’ve tried using Jupiter, dex scanner and the other one but still no luck, how are people actuallly managing to buy?? | 2025-01-19 |
These meme coins have no utility and are purely for speculation.. they’re almost design entirely for pump and dumps..
I don’t think it’s fair for anybody to get upset with anyone that has pumped and dumped when you’re literally gambling.. it’s like getting upset at a slot machine. This isn’t trading.. even if it wasn’t Trump that dumped it, there would be many holders that made a stack that just dumped.
It was no different with HAWK and it’ll be the same with MELANIA.
Stop wasting your time (and money) on pointless coins and start putting your money into projects you’ve researched and are confident will do well. | 2025-01-19 |
Just wondering if it’s just me? | 2025-01-20 |
I was stupid enough to buy into it but I only invested less than 500$ . Is it wise to keep it or is it best to pull out now ? | 2025-01-20 |
It seems like every single channel gets jammed up ONLY when trying to send a significant amount of money.
Tried to send 1000 USDC to Trust wallet AND Solflare, and both were rejected.
I was simply trying to buy a little of the Melainia meme coin, but I guess all of the channels are jammed up, or intentionally being blocked.
This is a coordinated effort, and Kraken is also not allowing me to send a significant amount of USDC to any of my SOL wallets
Edit: Ah….the Reddit community, where people come to project their own character defects, and worst personality traits on other people.
Some of you people are incredibly juvenile, naïve, and mentally deficient. | 2025-01-20 |
Solana breaks every time the load is heavy.
Ethereum just works and the total speed of the ecosystem will raise to 1000 TPS in 2 months thanks to the Pectra upgrade (versus Solana's limit of 700 real TPS), while SOL holders will be getting dumped on millions of newly created SOL by Venture Capitalists. | 2025-01-20 |
What did you expect was going to happen when the biggest grifter to ever be a president wins and says he’s pro crypto?
I’ll tell you what to expect:
All directives on crypto will go to his and his friends best interest.
Liquidity will be sucked from the market because he doesn’t accept crypto in any of his hotels.
You all will continue to be exit liquidity for someone who says the art of the deal is to say one thing before coming to the table with another proposal.
Crypto and blockchain technology was supposed to be a way to get away from the establishment. Now everyone is just giving the establishment and government more money in a chance to make 2x.
Pathetic | 2025-01-20 |
Polkadot should just unleash a memecoin launchpad like give it a short name like sway or something just to show it can handle the heat. Im suprised non of the coins have come out and offered an altenative to solana shortcomings
Apparently dot can, why isnt it coming forward? Give that marketing money to promote an alternative to pumpfun, gavin should grab the opportunity here and lock it in, seems the devs are sleeping on this matter. We have the tech but decide to stay in the background, come forward bruh show what we have instead of being quit | 2025-01-20 |
I lost $35 in failed transaction fees today like many others. Yes I’m a noob that usually buys solana on bigger exchanges.
Just don’t understand why Jupiter specifically prompts you to adjust the fee amount instead of wait on a less congested network.
Terrible network, wish there was a better network.
Edit: Why couldn’t I just buy Melania on Jupiter directly with my credit card. Why put people where they have to buy solana first then have to swap. This causes more network congestion imo. I think someone wants you to lose money in failed transactions, because there is no way to monitor it. Their network shows that it’s running fine on solanas website, which is just not true. If there is a real technical reason for having to buy solana first, excuse my ignorance. I still hate this network.
Edit 2: Can someone please explain why the network can not handle this? It just doesn’t make sense to me, for a multi-billion dollar network like solana to not be able to process this kind of stuff.
As someone who is pro-trump, losing $35 to the First Lady day before inauguration is a bad look. If I had lost it in the coin that would have one thing, but I just lost it to the ether. | 2025-01-20 |
Only now am I realizing how flawed Solana’s system really is. It lags, gets congested like crazy, and to top it off, I literally lost 1/3 of the SOL I bought during a transaction to my wallet. It just disappeared.
It’s insane that something this unreliable is still hyped up. After what happened with Trumpcoin and the way Solana handled the traffic, I can’t help but feel like its value might take a hit soon.
Anyone else seeing the cracks in Solana after this event? | 2025-01-20 |
Seeing the trump and Melania coins spike like they did, for a president going into office, it is disappointing to say the least. I have been proud to be in crypto for a while, but this event has me feeling probably the lowest and I’ve been about the trajectory of things. Just feels like a total con job, which we’ve had our fair shares of in crypto, but not from a soon to be sitting POTUS. I questioned everything today, and wonder if others are feeling that too. I always loved what crypto was all about at its core. Now it just feels gross on some level. Except eth kinda feels like it has some integrity still. Not that it’s being rewarded for that. Kinda mirrors the whole world of nice guys finish last (or at least not first). Days like these I just try to hide and not make rash decisions, but I’m questioning things like I said before. Disappointed in this whole circus | 2025-01-20 |
Given the success of the previous MAAMs ([see here](https://www.reddit.com/r/Monero/search?q=maam&sort=new&restrict_sr=on)), let's keep this rolling.
The principle is simple: ask anything you'd like to know about Monero, especially the dumb questions that you've been keeping for you every other days, may the community clarify it all!
Finally, credits to binaryFate for starting the concept! | 2025-01-20 |
People keep saying Solana is done, but look around lol. Memecoins, NFT mints, and DeFi are exploding. If this is failure, I do not wanna see success.
And if you are just holding SOL instead of staking with The Vault,Marinade, Jito, or BlazeStake, you are literally missing out on free yield. Why let it just sit there when you could be securing the network, earning rewards, and still using it in DeFi?
Congestion sucks, but it means Solana is winning. Scaling is coming just relax lol | 2025-01-20 |
It is donating away all your money. You will not get rich. Only idiots buy these scams, and you will not find bigger idiots than those currently buying.
In 4 years (probably way less), these will be dead/ disappear. No refunds. Bye bye money.
The only 1 upside is we will be able to write on your gravestone: "Was personally scammed by the president of the USA". | 2025-01-20 |
I mean seriously. How can you be surprised of how Trump and his kin have acted? Not like he fucked every living soul in the states last time he sat in the presidential seat. Why do you think this time would be any different?
Now he has allied himself with one of the most influential people out there. A person who have proved himself to have a huge sway on the crypto market (Dogecoin) and people follow his commands blindly. And acting like an abandoned child once he goes back on his words.
You know full well the rich gets richer while the poor gets poorer, why on earth do you think Trump and Musk would have any thoughts for the lesser folk? Why on earth do you think those two would think on anything other than filling their own pockets with more gold?
I'm seriously worried about the future of this world if people fall so blindly into the footsteps of greater men, expecting to reach their heights. And no I don't mean greater as in they are better than other, simply means they have deeper pockets. And a higher rank in the hierarchy.
It's like people have amnesia, they have forgotten what history has taught us. They only see the false promises the men in power shows us. Please for the love of everything USE YOUR FUCKING BRAIN. and think for yourselves. | 2025-01-20 |
First Trump insider rugs $35 million just as his wife Melania announced her own memecoin scam

Then, Melania insider rugs $12.5 million worth just 3 hours later. The coins were bought before public announcement
I don't even know if there are words to describe this level of scamming. They obviously think they can get away with anything.

Why are they doing this just before taking office? It's probably because of the Emoluments Clause of the Constitution, which would open him up to impeachment for abusing the office to enrich himself
Trump supporters like to say he doesn't take a government salary of $400k, but the dude has grifted more money through politics than almost anyone, even more than Nancy Pelosi. From taking hundreds of millions for inaugural committee (more than any President in history), to selling Chinese made shoes, to raising money to fight "election fraud" without ever even setting up any such fund, to taking money from foreign governments like Saudi Arabia indirectly through his son-in-law (Jared Kushner)...
There's even been a more naked grifter in politics, and that's saying something! | 2025-01-20 |
I'm seeing a lot of threads from people saying things like "SOL is unstable", "I can't do any transaction", "The network is not ready for such TPS".
I just laugh seeing people arguing about stuff they DON'T KNOW, the network didn't had ANY bottleneck at all with all those billions of transactions made by the COIN OF UNITED STATES PRESIDENT, do you at least know how big is such a thing?
The problem is not the network, the actual problem is the service providers around SOL, they aren't ready for such big volume, experiencing issues? Just get your wallet key and go to another provider.
You don't want to hold SOL? Fine, just swap to USDC at SOL's blockchain, you don't need to exchange for "real USD"(A number on your exchange database lol) to keep stable.
DYOR, folks...

I've been watching the top 10 wallets do some really weird stuff. Huge amounts of money going into bizarre coins with 80-99% of the coin being held by the creators. But, can someone give me insight as to why I just saw the top wallet that holds the new Trump coin holding 154T yes.. 154 Trillion dollars worth of a coin named Vladimir Putin? It was 193k per coin at 800,000,000 coins?
It was an unofficial coin. I took videos on Snapchat of the wallet on solscan. It said the Trump coin was .002% of it's holdings with 38B dollars still in its portfolio, and 99.9% of holdings were in this Vlad coin lmaoo | 2025-01-20 |
Trumps company World Liberty Finance has moved over 100M USD into BTC, ETH, Chainlink and other alt-coins over the last few hours. (And still going)
Interesting that this is happening hours before his inauguration, perhaps they know what’s coming?

Monero is very very undervalued, buy as much as you can get your hands on.
It is borderless untraceable MONEY. Don't be fooled. Monero is digital money and Bitcoin is digital gold. It's a bit like SILVER and GOLD in my opinion. Due to the delisting from various exchanges, Monero has potential to catch up.
Monero is one of the best cryptocurrencies ever created, don't be fooled, Monero will continue to work.

Been in Crypto since 2019, and I've done well on BTC, alts, and some meme's. But it's just such a dumb place for anything other then enjoying it as a casino.
You've got Eth and all projects on it that just make you pay crazy gas fees, so why would anyone want to use that expensive casino slot machine? Just go to the Solana slot machine instead where the projects are the same dumb thing, just cheaper gas fees.
You've got influencers like Murad, who wants you to buy his dog with asshole coin, and other influencers like Becker that want you to buy his favorite AI cat with asshole coin, and so on. They are all the same dumb nothing coin, it's just who can shout louder to their audience to make price go up.
Most projects are simply about what project allows better trading of one crypto to another crypto easiest, fastest, cheapest etc...so it's about what slot machine can interact with other slot machines better. Sure you've got Defi, but that's just about decentralized lending, borrowing, trading at the same slot machines.
You've got different Layer 1 chains like SUI, ETH, SOL, TRON, etc...but these are just different names for the same idea of just trading dumb coins in the hope you make some money.
BTC is the only coin that has some sort of 'investment' idea behind it, but even BTC is a greater fools game, because anyone that's been here for a few cycles understands it's going to drop off a cliff in the bear market, so you better cash in your chips before that happens.
Don't get me wrong, I actually have a lot of fun with crypto, I've made good money off crypto, and I think it's funny to buy things like Fartcoin instead of an Apple stock. I just think people take it all too seriously, when most of it is pretty useless, and just different slot machines at the worlds largest online casino.

Hey everyone, so last year (mid November) I decided to invest $300 into a meme coin. I put in 1/3 of all my wallet savings. **All advice will be written in bold.**
**Never put more into crypto than you are comfortable losing, never more than 1/3. If it feels uncomfortable losing a third, fund your wallet with less. Diversify your investments.**
There seem to be many new people in this space, so learn from my mistakes. Before the 18th of January, I was on a $550 unrealized value. I was confident that the memecoin I bought would keep increasing but it was good enough for me already. I decided to go sleep and sell all in the morning.
**ENDING THE DAY**
**Never go to sleep without finishing the day, either set limit orders - example: 1) If token increases from $5 to $8, sell. And ALWAYS set a bottom sell order 2) If token goes from 5$ to 4.5$, sell. If you aren't confident that the price will rise and it feels like a total gamble, or isn't long term, just sell before you sleep, or at least secure your initial investment by selling some.**
**F*CK groups if you aren't made of steel**
If you are serious about crypto – **Do not join any groups, trust no random person who "shills", no it won't triple in price by tomorrow if it already quadrupled. Make your own decisions, watch the news, read the official posts, follow big guys on X.com and have your notification on for them! Watch out for what they post as it could decide between you making a fortune overnight or losing it all. Joining Telegram groups will just make you emotinally swayed and you will hodl even if it goes tits up and then you are f*cked.**
**Do your due diligence**
**Use Dex Screener and Dextools.io, watch out for bad audit scans, unlocked liquidity pools. Have your 12 word wallet phrase written down on a paper that no one except you will ever see.** If you do not do these steps, you will end up losing.
**AVOID SCAMMERS AND AIRDROPS!**
**No one will ever give you anything for free, 99% of airdrops are a scam that will drain your wallet dry. Never send anyone your address even if it's public. Don't believe anyone. If you are supposed to recieve crypto from someone you know only online please, just make a secondary wallet only for that purpose. Making a wallet is free and you won't lose anything.**
And lastly.
**BE SMART AND TAKE PROFITS**
**Please, use just your brain. Pull up your pants, learn how to use wallets, how everything works. Take profits even if it's not life changing. A small profit is better than a loss. Put in just a small amount of money, play around. Lose some, gain some. Research your coins, don't buy worthless shit. Keep patient and one day you will 10x your money. Someone always has to lose, but just maybe, it won't be you.**
I personally, need a laptop for my studies. Lost half on all this mess even though I could have taken a profit and get what I want. Now I am on 50% loss, playing the long game, waiting for a gem to appear. It's probably never happening but hey. At least we learn right :)
Stay strong everyone, these 4 years will be insane for crypto, and if you don't want to miss out, learn first.

I don't think trump is going to announce anything related to BTC today, so right now it could be a good time to short it.
what do you guys think?
EDIT: Ended up shorting and it went down from 104.100 to 100.400 in about 5 hours.
Advice for future newcomers to this post: do not listen to people on Reddit lol | 2025-01-20 |
I remember a couple years ago like 2020, some dude in my country got busted and he was mining xmr on a botnet. Nowadays its not even worth it with randomX, i think the new algo fixed the problem. | 2025-01-20 |
Did Bitcoin cash really hit $9500 in Dec. 2017?
How do you all feel about that huge pump and dump? Doesn’t that work against the legitimacy of this crypto? for example BTC would’ve never pumped and dumped that much that fast? Why did it behave like a meme coin? and do you all really believe it will ever hit $9500 again? | 2025-01-20 |
There’s a lot going on in the crypto space right now. Don’t let the hype and fud mess with your head. Stick to the plan you’ve been formulating and adapt when necessary.
The market will run, you just need patience. Have conviction in your coins and sell on the way up over the next 3-6 months. Don’t over trade.
Your future self will thank you in a year’s time. Let us all prosper in 2025! | 2025-01-20 |

The chart confirms it. We’re in the midst of a gradual decline on the chart. Who else saw this coming? | 2025-01-21 |
The subnet directory page was completely restructured, to provide a better user experience in exploring the existing subnets, with the new addition of "Tags" and being able to filter subnets by tags, or by the subnet teams.

With all the data in plain sight, we have to call these scam coins now, not meme coins. Don’t get me wrong, I play the kino lottery game too. But when 99 percent are rugs this is just a crime guys. This has nothing to do with investing or crypto. | 2025-01-21 |
