It's useful to bring in fresh money keeping it artificially afloat. A Ponzi scheme. | 2025-01-31 |
Bought $LINK and $FIL when they were both $5.

Don't buy Filecoin, it's useless | 2025-01-31 |
Yeah yeah, the market can stay irrational blah blah. I've made some solid money in the past year, as I'm sure even the most regarded smoothbrain here has, but lets be fucking honest for a second, this cannot continue. Is the market just going to ignore the re-inflation threat? Even the FED governors are saying watch the fuck out. Does everyone honestly think tariffs wont affect everyone's bottom line and it turn, company's profits? Or the fact that other countries wont enact their own tariffs? I am not calling for a crash by any means, rather a giant slap across the face for most investors. I feel like we all need it.

u/Professional\_Ask9661 u/dragonniere Here's an X thread showing how staking works in dTAO
[https://x.com/MacrocosmosAI/status/1884909476282786047](https://x.com/MacrocosmosAI/status/1884909476282786047) | 2025-01-31 |
Thank you folks | 2025-01-31 |
Sold spy calls at the top and bought the puts right at the top. Going all cash gang for the weekend! | 2025-01-31 |
Hey buddy, I know you stake via Talisman. I do as well and have enjoyed it. Ive been busy accumulating TAO like mad, and transferred it over to my Talisman wallet today. Im on v2.4.0. When I went to the “Stake” area of the interface, the validator automatically defaults to generic “Bittensor Pool”, and when I go to select Validator, and select in order of Total Staked TAO, the entire list of validators all state 0 TAO staked. When I go to select TAO within the DOT wallet, I see that all of my TAO is still staked with my 5 selected validators, and my balances have earned more TAO since I checked last week. However, instead of seeing, for example, Bittensor Guru or Datura or tao5 (3 of my selected validators) on the L hand side of the screen as per usual, it just states the generic “Delegated Staking” in place of all the validator names. Im thinking Talisman needs an update or something. Are you seeing this, as well? Cheers! | 2025-01-31 |
It the best horse in race for alt market for AI. Staking is around 15-18% without waiting period. Btc type tokenomics. Brings me back to days when Btc just started. | 2025-01-31 |
Of course you can unstake. What is staked can be instked. Lots of web sites on google have step by step guides on how to unstake TAO on sub wallets. Just search. | 2025-01-31 |
Maybe this helps. https://youtu.be/txbtE-UEMN4 | 2025-01-31 |

The crypto market today is a battlefield dominated by billionaires running coordinated cons against retail investors. From celebrity meme coins to the AI narrative, from Murad’s list of “approved” tokens to the Bitcoin ETF hype, everything is designed to extract liquidity from everyday traders and funnel it into the hands of the elite.
• Celebrity Coins: These are blatant cash grabs where influencers launch tokens, pump them through social media, and dump on their own followers. The result? Retail gets wrecked, while the celebrities and their insider teams walk away with millions.
• AI Narrative: Every major financial cycle has its golden gimmick, and AI is the latest. AI-powered crypto projects are being marketed as revolutionary, but most are just vaporware with no real-world adoption.
• Murad’s List: Hedge funds and institutions play a different game, quietly accumulating assets before making them “investable” for the masses. By the time a coin makes it onto these curated lists, the upside is already gone, and retail is left buying the top.
• Bitcoin ETF Manipulation: The ETF approval brought a wave of institutional money, but it’s clear that the game is rigged. Institutions use ETF flows to control Bitcoin’s price, squeezing out retail traders and extracting profits through market manipulation.
The Only Real Play Left: Finding a Quality CTO Project
With all this noise, retail investors are left searching for the few legitimate opportunities that billionaires haven’t yet flooded with their capital. The answer? Finding a strong Community Takeover (CTO) project before it enters the mainstream. A successful CTO means that a project is no longer in the hands of a corrupt dev or insider VC firms but is instead guided by its community.

Reverse the steps you took to stake. | 2025-01-31 |
You can't unstake if they don't give the option. Never had difficulty unstaking with any other projects. There's always a big ass unstake button right there next to the stake button. Once TAO is staked good luck unstaking because thats not an option you're given. 80% of supply staked my ass it's probably all stuck in wallets that don't have unstaking capabilities. Just another crypto Ponzi scheme. | 2025-01-31 |
Can't there is no option to unstake. | 2025-01-31 |
Don’t know about that, I find it easy to unstake but I use their official app and have never used a sub wallet. Maybe go to your sub wallet provider and ask them on their discord or forum or website, see if they can help. You should be able to unstake and it normally takes less than a minute to process. | 2025-02-01 |
Friend told me this is post worthy, anyways I’m blessed. I withdrew everything and put it all into VOO. Hoping I’ll be ahead of my age group for future retirement. God bless America. | 2025-02-01 |
oh boy - maybe so some reading 1st (somebody posted the doc further down) before throwing stupid accusations around !!
remember u have to wait 75 min (300 blocks) between staking / unstaking | 2025-02-01 |
tbh i have not logged in for month so … i gotta check that out over the next weeks
they propably need an update , as all other wallets as dtao and such is coming, maybe they are all waiting for Tao to settle all the new stuff on testnet before these wallets update | 2025-02-01 |
Hello crypto players,
I think I’m being shook out. I’ve been in crypto since 2017 but since early 2022 I’ve been heavily DCA’ing into the market. The last few years have been financially difficult for me and my family. Things are too hard for the working class in America. My neighbors are losing their house because their son got sick. My brother lives in section 8 housing with his family because he got hurt on the job so they fired him. Everyone I grew up with is crushed with student debt. I could go on. I don’t make a lot of money anymore since the pandemic. I saw crypto as a way out of poverty once and for all so I cashed out a chunk of my pathetic retirement and put it into the down market in 2023.
I manage to put in about $36,000 and today my account is worth about $265,000. I’ve waited over two years for this February and March but I don’t share the blind faith in the new US administration like many in this space do. Each day is crazier than the last, taxes are going up and household debt is at historically high levels. The thought of continuing to watch my family struggle in life because I lose what I’ve made because I was overly greedy is exhausting me to where I can’t sleep at night anymore. I feel like I’ll regret losing what I have right now more than I would watching it continue to climb without me. All-in-all, I think I’m done. I hope it continues to climb and the main leg of the banana zone happens over the coming months and you all make life changing money.
Good luck and I’ll see you all on the other side 🫡 | 2025-02-01 |
Right. I asked the Talisman wallet guy on their sub as well. Have not heard back from him yet. I figure the wallet prob needs an update too. I just check my delegations every 1-2 weeks or so. Until it gets updated within Talisman, I am going to just hold off on staking my newly accumulated TAO (swapped some ETH from way back when for TAO)…Thanks for responding! | 2025-02-01 |
ah ok, i just check my wallet address on taostats and update my portfolio App from there (no need to open wallet each time)
https://taostats.io/account/yourwalletaddress
(replace yourwalletaddress with your wallet address ; ) | 2025-02-01 |
When will the price follow? | 2025-02-01 |
Yeah, I’ll prob just wait til it’s updated on the Talisman end. That’s a good way to check, though. | 2025-02-01 |

Happy New Year 🐍
Since 1930, the year of the pig has had the best S&P 500 average annual return at a snorting 15%. In second, the rooster/rabbit, both at 12%/year. The tiger follows at 10%/year, the rat returns 9%/year, and the monkey an intelligent 8%/year. The Ox/horse/dragon/dog each average 6%/year, while sheep offer a baah-baric 5%/year. Regrettably the snake, which is this year’s animal, slithers in last at -2%/year.

One of the best resources we have in BCH and surely deserve appreciation is the "BitcoinCash Podcast" and in todays article I highlight Jeremy the founder. I hope you enjoy and support my writings guys. | 2025-02-01 |
I was promised threefiddy at least! Are you referring to that i was lied to? | 2025-02-01 |
I know Trump appointed David Sacks as crypto Czar and signed a crypto executive order last week, but I don't see how anything they could do would help Americans in the crypto market. If they agree on a Bitcoin reserve for the U.S. I don't see that doing anything to help people. The only thing that I can think of to help would be to make crypto tax-free.
Also, is there any outlandish scenario where $TRUMP rises ever? Even if they come up with a plan that benefits the crypto market in the U.S., I don't see a reason to ever buy his meme coin.
Edit - Thanks everyone! It seems taxes are the only thing we have to hope for, and the dead meme coin is still dead lol. | 2025-02-01 |
be careful out there, heaps of people are already coming up with all kind of scams !!! | 2025-02-01 |
These scummy snipers who don't even wait for a coin to stabilize have completely ruined solena. I launched my test coins to for my games and app, put $170 in a lp to muck about, not even 30s later bot sells everything it snipped, stripping all my USDC Liquidity.
Not even gonna lunch on Sol now. Pump.fun and other sites have completely ruin the chain. | 2025-02-01 |
just checked on CMC - there are already Multi Dtao pairs out there - ALL SCAMS !!! pump.fun and others are already creating fake Dtao on SOL and WETh and whatever … do NOT get scammed !! | 2025-02-01 |

It's easy. If you want help, write to me on my telegram name: @Luigi_SK and I'll make you a simple code :) I enjoy such things... and don't worry, I'm not a stupid scammer, I'm a guide on the MetaMask forum and I'm looking for a funny job here. I have the simple code ready, but I need to know if you know your address starting with number 5 :) if not it will be more complicated. But there are not many combinations. | 2025-02-01 |

For the past half a year we've been crunching the numbers for search volume for each currency on [OrangeFren.com](http://OrangeFren.com)
Each and every month Monero has been taking the lead. Here's the latest numbers for January 2025:
[Stats for January 2025](https://preview.redd.it/efmj11gynjge1.png?width=1080&format=png&auto=webp&s=487cafc41d1df0f8ba020f7ddb83f067cb1798d8)
All the numbers:
|Month|XMR %|BTC %|Others %|
|:-|:-|:-|:-|
|2025 January |40%|25%|35%|
|2024 December|40%|24%|36%|
|2024 November|39%|25%|36%|
|2024 October|48%|42%|10%|
|2024 September|45%|19%|36%|
|2024 August |44%|27%|29%|
|2024 July|31%|21%|48%|
As you can see the numbers are pretty stable. 30-40% for Monero, \~25% for Bitcoin.
Before anyone says this is just, because we only market ourselves to Monero folk - that's not true. We operate a Bitcoin Lightning Network [node](https://mempool.space/lightning/node/02935477addfaa40661e10fdd67cb08bf5f64ff7a8bc71b058fc8e5e505e09bbf1). We [sell channels](https://amboss.space/magma/offer/ff761814-e9df-422d-822f-9128ed4bc3ed) from it to help Bitcoiners connect to the rest of LN. And we even regularly advertise on Lightning (basically you can send a pretty long text with every payment on LN so we send 1 sat to every LN user and the memo is a text ad).
Despite this LN only gets 4% of our search volume in January. That's the highest ever and still only a TENTH of Monero's volume 🫠 | 2025-02-01 |

I would like to know if anyone knows a way to sell btc without being asked for KYC.
I bought BTC in 2015 I would like to start taking small profits because I will soon become a father, no idea how handle that ( we are talking 7fig +) for now just need it in USDT and decide next move, but since my BTC came from mining and forgot about it, idk where/how can I swap.
NO CEX!

Outside of the brutal launch…curious to hear what folks much smarter than I think about the underlying premise? I am trying to learn but it’s pretty dense subject matter. | 2025-02-01 |
Exclude launch product
Pros:
- Stake to access
- Product good
- Privacy AI dont spy user
Cons:
- Emission high
- Current product easy to replicate | 2025-02-01 |
Not 100… maybe 30s, 40s? | 2025-02-01 |
How can Kraken do this?? Is this another Voyager waiting to happen? | 2025-02-01 |
I transfered some ETC from kucoin into coinbase, the transaction is still pending after hours. How does it work? Whats the average transaction time? | 2025-02-01 |
I couldnt do it anymore. I sold all my alts that i thought would rocket upward like the past cycles. So maybe now alt season will magically begin and eth will hit 10k, link $100, etc. The real alt gainers this cycle (sol, xrp) barely passed their aths. Btc grew over the last 365 days while alts barely.
Maybe all the "alt money" went to etfs, btc, meme coins instead? Maybe people are getting burned out? Crypt used to be a smaller community. It's more mainstream than ever that governments are accumulating. It started with btc, went into other areas.. maybe it'll go back to mainly btc.
The elites control the narrative now. Governments, billionaires. They're gonna control btc, it's supply. they'll say what's value and what isn't. And the people won't have much of a say. This cycle has been a great learning process. When I wanna screenshot my portfolio, I need to sell. When I see the elderly talk about crypto, I need to sell. When I see people in the govn and congress rug pulling, I need to sell.
Good luck | 2025-02-01 |
correct - def always good to have your coins on a private wallet (hardware wallet even better - “Not your keys not you …”) but i guess u know that already
Dtao is all about staking / validating Subnets | 2025-02-02 |
Yep I'm just lazy to do the passages on Ledger Live + Polkadot app + Talisman wallet for staking. I still have my $TAO on CDC app. So dTao it's basically like stETH, correct? | 2025-02-02 |
tbh i have not looked into stEth - dtao will NoT be traded on the open markets (CEX), it will only be available on some DEX the team is building and the “trading” happens inside the pools of each subnet (the more dtao are in that pool the higher the price in that pool with go or the opposite - each Pool / each SN will have its own Dtao and its own evaluation (price) of Dtao ! the price really moves in these SN separately (even they are all called Dtao accross all SN)
remember Dtao is not just some Altcoin / Memecoin next to Tao, its job and value (and existence) is only to validate Subnets !
Is it a good Subnet (good product, bringing customers, making revenue , constant development … like a startup) price will go up of Dtao in that SN pool - so it is validates as “good” and they get more emissions from the network
opposite , a “bad” SN (no app, pretending to be something they are not, no development, no community ….) Dtao in that SN pool will go down … validated as “bad” - less emissions from the network for that SN
and your stake value in Dtao obviously goes up and down in value in each SN - “bad SN” your stake value goes down (less Tao for your Dtao) - “good SN” your stake value goes up (more Tao for your Dtao)
and remember - there are no Dtao presale - no trading on open markets - no Dtao on Sol and whatever fake shitcoin launches are out there !
Edit: sorry , a bit long this ; ) | 2025-02-02 |
Hi i know my public address. It recorded when i send my fund before | 2025-02-02 |
No, you'll be lucky to break even in a year or two. | 2025-02-02 |
No it can't. More like $1.50-$2.15 based on macro TA and the way it is | 2025-02-02 |
So, people will have to sell their Tao in order to buy dTao? | 2025-02-02 |
swop - yes
only if u wanna stake in a SN, or u stay on root and stay in Tao - or u do nothing | 2025-02-02 |
Is there anyone else who feels the same like me. As the oath taking ceremony got over all the whales pulled their money out and ever since its plunging new lows every single day.
I have seen my friends loosing a lot of money almost 90%of his investment in like 10days.
It’s scary to me how the government as well plays it and mints money out of public by creating hype about something. And then it makes me conclude that this is all a waste traditional ways of investment is better at least it is well regulated.
| 2025-02-02 |
Lately, scam [pump.fun](http://pump.fun) accounts will find good looking tokens that look like they will bond, but that don't have a tele posted. They will make a tele and keep spamming it in the thread. They have a malicious version of the safeguard bot in there that asks for your login details to enter the group through the portal, or asks you to scan from your phone.
I hope its obvious to anyone that they would never need to enter their login details to enter a telegram group. DO NOT FALL FOR THIS. They immediately take control of your wallet if you have it connected to a tele trade bot wallet and siphon everything out. They also kill the coin by dumping the coin immediately after transfer to their wallet.
I figure might need to be said as when a coin looks like it'll bond, people seem to lose their ability to think. | 2025-02-02 |
Social media influencers and accounts with big followings are using meme coins to scam people and get away with it here is how they are doing it... (I ask the moderators please leave this up).
These people may have millions of followers on TikTok, YouTube, and/or Instagram.
They promote a meme coin on their X (Twitter) page, claiming it to be completely legit. However, these accounts will always be **barely used** and have **little to no followers** at all.
You'll usually see them post things at the beginning like "supply locked", "dex paid", or "tokens burned", in order to make the project seem more real.
The way they scam is by having separate wallets or usually **bundled** wallets containing a very large amount of tokens early on. These wallets will **gradually** sell, avoiding a big obvious rug pull (like hawktuah).
After all the wallets sell off their profit the creator will either slowly stop posting about it or quickly delete it to make it look like nothing ever happened.
Not enough people will be affected to make a commotion and hurt their reputation
TLDR;
Big influencers promote meme coins on Twitter accounts that have no followers to scam people and suffer no consequences because there won't be enough people affected or enough people to notice. | 2025-02-02 |
I would just buy $100 worth and set a reminder alarm. | 2025-02-02 |
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.

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.

So l bought 150k worth of SOL at 248$ and as soon as I bought it started crashing (just my luck) am I cooked? Do I sell and take my losses and hold! What are your guys opinions on my current situation and the current crypto market situation | 2025-02-02 |
According to Whale Insider on Twitter, BlackRock has been buying ETH during the weekend, and they made two big purchases (at least that we know about). Yesterday, February 1, they bought 17,261 ETH, and on January 31 they acquired another 24,529 ETH. Within two days, BlackRock accumulated at least 41,790 ETH valued at $128.3 million in total.
These purchases come at a time when market sentiment around ETH is very bearish. The fact that institutions are buying in bulk while prices are low makes me wonder about potential market manipulation. Are they intentionally keeping prices low to accumulate more? It also feels like they are moving from Bitcoin to Ethereum, if that's the case a big price move could be coming.
$128.3 million is nothing but pocket change for BlackRock, there's a lot more where that came from for sure. And they would not be doing these buys if they did not see the long-term value of Ethereum. That is another sign that large scale confidence in ETH is growing. However, despite institutional confidence in Ethereum keeps growing, retail investors are not convinced. Many small investors sell in fear, while the giants quietly stack ETH.
I think BlackRock knows something we don't, we should all pay attention.

Since Trump won the election, the crypto world has surged and reached record highs. However, if we compare it to historical data, we can anticipate that a big crash might happen anytime in the near future. Basically, because it always did it before in each cycle. Some claim that Trump will adopt an official strategic crypto reserve for the US and so it will pump it even more. But what's actually sustaining the current price? | 2025-02-02 |
Anything can happen in the bull market. I'm hoping for 50 to 100. | 2025-02-02 |

than bitcoin rebound to even higher but altcoins keep the fall i guess they are just good for profit and bitcoin for hold and safety | 2025-02-02 |
Everyone was waiting for an altseason… so instead, we got a black swan event hitting alts just as hard.
The sentiment was building, charts were aligning, and narratives were forming. People were gearing up for the usual cycle , BTC runs, then ETH, then the rest of the market. But instead of the explosive gains, we got a sudden, unexpected downturn that wiped out momentum across the board.
At this point, it feels like every time the market starts leaning one way too heavily, the opposite happens. Whether it’s macro events, regulatory FUD, or whale games, something always comes in to shake things up.
Did anyone actually see this coming? Or were we all just too eager for the next leg up? | 2025-02-02 |
Bruh why this mans is still trying to pump up his coin???
The whole jig is up, we haven’t seen a Green Day since he took office. Put trade tariffs in place which crashed the market and luckily the stock markets are closed on the weekend or else everything would’ve tanked.
Monday will be even worse.
I hate it and I hate the day he took office. Still no sign or clear path to what exactly is he trying to do, but you got some dumb ass mfs who supported him even after he literally scammed them out of their money still defending him. Bruh some people are brain dead OG. | 2025-02-02 |

Ok redditors…you are my best therapist in times like these.
Question,
How can tariffs in only 3 countries screw up the world market?
The United Arab Emirates (UAE) and Singapore have the highest rates of cryptocurrency ownership in the world. The United States has the largest government holdings of Bitcoin.
Crypto ownership by country

Every crypto wallet in these innocent countries get to suffer because of this? | 2025-02-03 |
Looks like odds are better it’ll hit below $1 | 2025-02-03 |
Real big shitcoin going to $1 you’ll be lucky to see $5 again lool | 2025-02-03 |
Huge red note at our door. Let’s hope it stops dumping soon. Not the best Sunday evening to have, but it is what it is. We hold or we lose. | 2025-02-03 |
NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN.
I see a lot of people on here trying to mislead newcomers. Do not listen to people saying to dump your life savings in right now. This is a trade war! These developed countries aren’t going to just roll over for America’s Mango Mussolini overlord. This dude crashed every business he ever ran and his most successful business ventures are scams. He can’t strong arm these countries into doing what he wants and he’s cashing checks with middle class blood. BE CAREFUL.
The fact is NOBODY KNOWS WHAT IS GOING TO HAPPEN THIS WEEK. It could be a V-Shaped recovery, it could be a dead-cat-bounce. What we do know is DOW Jones Futures are negative 600 points today so we can expect the stock market is likely going to have a bloody week. Do not try to catch a falling knife and don’t listen to Trump rimmers telling you to dump your life savings in right now. Do your own research, make your own decisions and only invest what you’re willing to lose. This is not a normal bullrun and crypto is PvP. Always remember that.
Good luck and stay safe 🍀 | 2025-02-03 |
Because of Trump’s trade war you’ll expect prices of basic necessities to rise not only in US but also other parts of the world (Canada, Mexico). What will happen if people lacks cash to buy foods? They tend to withdraw part of their investment or stop investing at all. Since you can’t use crypto in costco or walmart then what you gonna do? Get those crypto converted to fiat.
This is only the beginning. If the Trump continues to put tariffs in all the nations especially Middle East with Saudi Arabia then it’s the end game for crypto as well
Keep track of what the self proclaimed president of the world is doing and you can predict what will happen to crypto | 2025-02-03 |
Because of the dip in BTC and in alts, everyone around is panicking saying the bull run is over and they've lost money and done with the crypto world, and so on.
But it isn't over yet- atleast I believe the L1 majors have the potential to reach their last high and BTC will also go on to 120k (my personal prediction).
The market just needs a new narrative to grow.
However, what I said above isn't financial advice, always do your own research before investing into anything. Never trust any advice blindly.

The Crypto [Fear/Greed](https://cryptokid.com/blog/crypto-fear-and-greed-index-explained/) Index which measures or gauges Market Sentiment has hit an alarming 39 (fear).
The [metric](https://coinmarketcap.com/charts/fear-and-greed-index/) which was last seen this low in October 2024 follows market-wide (not just crypto) reaction to high tariffs on imports slammed on Canada (25%) China (10%) and Mexico (25%) by the US.
https://preview.redd.it/m5gpgczajuge1.jpg?width=2193&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=1a68cd17adefc653b5607bb12a6db4dcea5addbb
Ethereum recorded one of the worst crypto price reaction to the development - which experts fear will trigger a trade war with incredible rise in inflation - as it plummeted from $3.1k to an abysmal low of $2.3k in the last 24 hours.
Many other tokens in the ecosystem recorded losses not seen since the crypto market uptrend started 15 months ago! Even Donut sunk so low to hit $0.0023.
Considering that stocks are only 2% off all time highs, it won't be out of place to say ETH price overreacted to the fears of trade wars.
On the liquidation front, losses have now risen to $2 billion in the last 24 hours. Bluechips Ethereum and Bitcoin are leading with $528m and $421m respectively while crypto's overall crypto market cap shrank by approximately 8%.
Although Trump is scheduled to hold talks with with Canada and Mexico later today (Monday), it's uncertain if the outcome will see prices bounce back. | 2025-02-03 |

[ETH\/USD 1D](https://preview.redd.it/ps42mhgx2vge1.png?width=1422&format=png&auto=webp&s=2da55e18039788b31f767b39ff3da5d4c8396fa0)
Today, I have to analyze this hard to see chart. As you can see in the chart above and in your portfolio the whole market corrected in a "brutal" way, to be honest, like when crypto corrects due to external factors. We don't have to forget that crypto is a high risk asset for now. Based on the chart ETH has broken below $3k support level showing a really strong bearish sentiment in the market. All this is happening to every altcoin and also BTC in a less size.
Ethereum is currently trading at $2472 after rebounding at $2200 support after a 34% flash crash. Now $3k support has become a resistance.
As expected, MACD indicator shows a bearish crossover increasing red momentum and signaling that bears re strong. Regarding Stochastic RSI, it shows oversold indicating a potential relief bounce but without confirming a reversal.
The market now depends on how the US stock markets react when opens and it doesn't look good at all. However crypto could be pricing this event. Let see if ETH at least HODLs at this prices. I seriously consider that the market is over reacting right now.
Personally I would jump into trading right now, volatility is really insane and unpredictable but if you have the guts to do it you can still make money. I believe this could rebound today Monday and then dump tomorrow to test again the resistance.
To end I can only give you one "good" news and is that in February 2021 Ethereum and also the market in general experience a -36.85% dump (currently we are at -46.71%). With this an as a "history doesn't repeat but often rhymes" believer I think this somehow can be the confirmation we needed. Also I can tell that if you have cash, enjoy this opportunity and be greedy when others are fearful.
Good luck!

Trump and his "associates" probably shorted the market before that tariffs story. Maybe with the money earned with the trump coin.
In 1-2 weeks, he will say he found an agreement after he longed the market.
He will say he saved the economy after tanking the market.
Rinse and repeat during his mandate. Cryptoscam president. | 2025-02-03 |
We're all expecting a huge drop in the market with all of the political stuff going on. So what about coins that are barely above zero as it is? Shiba and Pepe are barely above zero on a good day. Is it possible that they could get so low that the exchanges stop carrying them? Has that ever happened? And if it happens, then what happens to your wallet on that exchange if you own a bunch of whatever they stop carrying?
Sorry if this is a dumb question. I'm a newb, looking to buy while the price is low but don't want to just give my money away if the exchanges are going to stop carrying things that get too low. | 2025-02-03 |

Price can go up or down because of external macroeconomics events that have nothing to do with Ethereum or crypto at all. Media, market manipulators, Twitter crypto gurus, etc. will try to make everything look like its the end or it isn't to benefit their own bags but what they can't manipulate are adoption metrics like RWAs, apps created in the ecosystem, etc. This is the kind of things you must check in a project before and while investing or holding it.
[Ethereum](https://preview.redd.it/tcfys1bjtvge1.jpg?width=826&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=629951fef32adadeb1b6ddd771c518ef47c82959)
I am not going to paste here millions of charts showing why adoption is top and other metrics. There are a lot of resources out there to check them by yourself like [https://app.rwa.xyz/](https://app.rwa.xyz/), [https://l2beat.com/](https://l2beat.com/), [https://dune.com/](https://dune.com/), etc.
No matter how many ETH killers appear, the reality is that Ethereum remains being the most dominant and fundamentally asset in the crypto space only after Bitcoin. The ecosystem keeps growing, evolving, with constant innovation and adoption is also growing. Ethereum has also the largest developers community, its the most secure and decentralized smart contract platform and with highest real world adoption. Ethereum is basically the backbone of DeFi, NFTs, etc. A lot of great projects are built on Ethereum, LINK, POL, ARB, OP, etc. and if you compare this with other projects you confirm who is the real King.
Also you must check how manipulation behaves, for example, you can see it on this same community. It's not a coincidence that Not Registered activity increases when Ethereum price dumps because removing the real users that come to ask real question because they look for some knowledge you can notice that most of the others follow the same pattern, increase fear, disbelief and basically FUD Ethereum with different approaches (If you check the accounts you will also notice that they look bought).
This is a common practice on manipulation and is equivalent to when we see posts like \[insert CEX\] has locked my funds and stole them. Those are also most of the times paid posts to release FUD. With all of this I want to remove noise from your sight, ALWAYS check metrics and why things are happening. This dumb is macro economics, it is not related to crypto fundamentals.
Good luck and enjoy the roller coaster! | 2025-02-03 |
