How Did I Lose 1 Crore in #Crypto ?

Learn from My Crypto Misadventures!

🔴 Lack of Research:
Ever invested in a coin just because your buddy said it's the next big thing? Guilty as charged! Turns out, hype and hearsay aren't solid investment strategies. Lesson learned: always do your own research!

🔴 Ignoring Risk Management:
Stop-loss what? Diversification who? Yeah, I skipped those chapters in the crypto handbook. Put all my eggs in a few high-risk baskets and hoped for the best. Spoiler alert: it didn't end well.

🔴 Emotional Trading:
Picture this: buying at the peak and selling at the bottom like a true market magician. Fear and greed made a great combo for disaster.

Note to self: emotions and trading don't mix!

🔴 Falling for Scams:
Ah, the classic "get-rich-quick" schemes. Joined a few pump-and-dump groups, thinking I was onto something big. Turns out, I was the one getting pumped! Tip of the day: if it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.

🔴 Lack of Exit Strategy:
Held onto coins like they were going out of style, even when every market signal screamed "SELL!" Patience is a virtue, but so is knowing when to cut your losses.

How Did I Make 1 Crore in Crypto?

Ever wondered how to make a crore in crypto without breaking a sweat (well, maybe a little)? Let me spill the beans on my secret sauce on my second segment of crypto brainstorming series !

🟢 Comprehensive Research

No, I didn’t just close my eyes and throw darts at a list of cryptocurrencies! I dove deep into the tech, teams, market potential, and use cases before investing. Imagine Sherlock Holmes, but with a laptop and a lot of caffeine.

🟢 Diversified Portfolio
Ever heard the saying, "Don't put all your eggs in one basket"? Well, I didn't put all my Bitcoin in one wallet either! I spread my investments across various cryptos, reducing risk and increasing the chances of hitting that jackpot.

🟢 Risk Management

I wasn't just YOLO-ing my money into Dogecoin. I had strict risk management strategies in place. Stop-loss orders? Check. Only investing money I could afford to lose? Double-check. This way, I protected my capital like a mama bear protects her cubs.

🟢 Staying Updated and Educated

I didn’t just set it and forget it. I kept myself in the loop about market trends, regulatory changes, and the latest tech.

🟢 Strategic Entry and Exit
Timing is everything,  I developed a disciplined approach to buying during market dips and taking profits systematically when prices surged. It's like surfing the crypto waves—catch the dip, ride the high, and repeat!

#BNB Smart Chain stablecoin market share continues to shrink

BNB Smart Chain (BSC) grew the least in 2024, with an increase of 9.8%, or $444.5 million. It was the only chain in the top 5 to add less than a billion dollars in stablecoin. During the same period, its market share dropped from 3.5% to 2.9%. 

Over a broader timeframe, however, BSC saw its stablecoin supply drop -61.0% between May 2022 and September 2024, mostly in the form of Binance USD (BUSD). This represented a fall of $7.8 billion in the wake of Binance being ordered by the New York Department of Financial Services to cease support for the stablecoin. Despite this, the SEC terminated its investigation into the stablecoin in July, though the damage had been done. BUSD now accounts for a small percentage of BSC stablecoins, with USDT making up for the bulk at 79.5%.

The partnership’s intent-based automation will allow creators and developers to monetize and manage their work more efficiently, minimizing complexity and lowering transaction costs, the release said.

Which Countries Are Most Interested in #RWA Crypto?

The country most interested in crypto Real World Assets (RWA) is the US, which accounts for 14.8% of global interest in the narrative in 2024 to date. As a major arena for crypto, the US has previously led interest in other narratives, including small cap tokens and AI crypto.

Notably, the most popular RWA protocol among US crypto investors during this period is #Ondo Finance (ONDO), which made up almost half of the country’s interest in RWA crypto. The US has also led interest towards most RWA protocols, for example representing almost a third of global attention in #Goldfinch (GFI) and #Maple (MPL) so far this year.

26 #Crypto Sports Sponsorships Signed in 2024, a 38% Drop from 2021

It's been a wild ride between the crypto world and sports sponsorships. During the 2021 bull run, crypto companies dove headfirst into sponsoring some of the biggest sports teams and events. However, sponsorships dwindled when the markets hit the fan in 2022, wiping out 70-85% of the cryptocurrency market cap. In addition, the fall of FTX, once a major player in sports sponsorships, further accelerated the decline. But has the industry regained momentum in 2024?

#Bitcoin open interest surge past $35B raises 'overheating' concerns

Bitcoin’s recent surge in open interest beyond $35 billion has analysts worried about potential signs of froth in the market.

Bitcoin OI — the total number of Bitcoin futures contracts that have yet to be settled or expire — is a critical metric investors use to assess market sentiment and anticipate future price movements.

On Sept. 27, Bitcoin OI reached $35.52 billion, the highest since June 7 when it clocked $37.69 billion, according to CoinGlass data. At that time, Bitcoin was trading near its all-time high, at $70,759, before pulling back nearly 18% over the next 30 days to $58,239.
The analysts argues that this “raises concerns of potential market overheating.”

Analysis of Ethereum Price Predictions

As of August 6, in the last 30 days, ETH's price plunged 15.5%, hovering around $2,600. This is reminiscent of the plunge that happened in April 2022 following the start of the Fed’s interest rate hiking cycle. This time, the Fed fund futures price in three rate cuts by the end of 2024, with the first one in September with an 82.7% probability. Depending on the severity of the need to stimulate the economy with rate cuts, this could be either a tailwind or a headwind.

What Is Ethereum's Price Prediction for 2024?

Secondary to Bitcoin by market cap, Ethereum has been neck and neck with Bitcoin over the last year across major inflection points. Over one year, however, Ethereum lags behind Bitcoin at 31.6% vs 85.8% gains respectively. The potential for Ethereum ETFs buoyed the cryptocurrency but its gains have been wiped, leaving it trailing behind Bitcoin at 5.9% vs 51.9% respectively, year-to date.

Despite the price slump of both cryptocurrencies in late July, much is expected from Ethereum ETFs, based on the wildly successful launch of Bitcoin ETFs. Considering these and other factors, what price range can ETH holders expect in the near to medium future?

Where Do People Get Crypto News?

Most of the crypto community were found to be obtaining their news and information from social media platforms, rather than from news websites. A total of 73.8% consumed most of their crypto-related information from X, YouTube or Telegram, while news websites lagged further behind as the main information source for just 6.5% of participants.

What Social Media Is Most Used for Crypto?

The social media platforms most used for crypto are X (formerly Twitter), Telegram and YouTube, which represented a combined 84.0% of the crypto community’s responses in a survey. Another 15.0% mostly used Discord, Reddit or other social media platforms, and the remaining 1.0% self-identified as not being part of any crypto social media.

While X was unsurprisingly the most popular crypto social media, only 41.7% or less than half of the crypto community considered it their main platform to spend time on. This suggests that although crypto Twitter is well-known, with CT content and conversations typically getting cited or referenced for industry developments, X is not the only online space where the crypto community primarily gathers.

Crypto Market Has Seen 0 Days of Correction in 2023 & 2024 So Far

Crypto has experienced 62 days of market correction from 2014 to date, which makes up a minor 1.6% of the time during this period. The average crypto market correction across these days was -13.0%, which is just 3 percentage points above the technical cutoff definition for a market correction.

Crypto was hit by the highest number of 18 market corrections in 2018, which is double the next highest 9 days of market correction recorded in 2017. The frequency of crypto market corrections in 2018 was likely due to the volatile bearish conditions then, as crypto cooled off from a bull run that gained the asset class greater mainstream recognition.

Notably, crypto saw 0 days of correction in 2023, as the market consolidated and made a gradual recovery despite a challenging macroeconomic environment. Bitcoin and Ethereum similarly did not experience any days of price correction last year.

While both the global crypto market and Bitcoin have yet to experience any days of correction so far this year, it remains to be seen if that will be the case for the rest of 2024. On the other hand, Ethereum has already seen 2 days of price correction this year, namely -10.1% on March 20 and -10.0% on August 6, 2024.

Crypto’s Covid Crash Still 5X Worse Than 2024 Sell Offs

In the last ten years, the worst global crypto market correction has been the -39.6% Covid-19 crash on March 13, 2020. The widespread sell off saw total crypto market capitalization plunge from $223.74 billion to $135.14 billion day over day (DoD). 

In comparison, the largest crypto market sell off to date this year was significantly less severe at only -8.4%, which took place on March 20, 2024. Similarly, while the most recent drawdown saw 4 consecutive days of decline that shrank total crypto market capitalization from $2.44 trillion on August 2 to $1.99 trillion on August 6, none of the decreases have been large enough to qualify as a market correction.

In fact, crypto has not recorded a single day of market correction since the FTX collapse in November 2022.
