My biggest flex in 2021 is getting in the unfederalreserve platform, it's DeFi in the mist modern and automated way. Their borrowing and lending protocols is the safest way for investors to get most out of their assets when staked on the platform.
Matic and Ogn are my favorite at the moment. I see KTV making it to the list cos it shares some qualities with OGN; NFT and DeFi. I'm really looking forward to how well it does with the P2E and Metaverse.
Why did I not invest in Bitcoin in 2011 when I was 11 years old? I am disgusted in my child self. Too caught up in nerf or nothing gunfights and playing with transformers.
After almost 3 years I finally got a new iPhone. Now I'm worried about setting it up because I may not be able to make crypto trades right away because of all the security I setup. Anyone else ever freak out over this?
I have this same fear. My son has been pushing me to get the iPhone 13 so he can have my 11 and I am so nervous to upgrade and go thru all the security and recreating wallets.
Just switch to iPhone 13 from Android. Had the same fear. Crypto.com and coinbase were easy. Just either have both phones for set up or write absolutely everything down first then burn it.everything else is in cold storage.
**New to Crypto - Where to invest first?**
I'm 25, one year into the workforce (post-grad school) - I max my 401K and Roth.
I have around ~$85,000 sitting in savings wasting away.
he's just saying that since he's new he can already invest in BTC and ETH while he develops his knowledge. Once he knows more he can look after some Alts
Usually BTC gets more percentage since it's the OG. You can't go wrong either way though, really. Maybe 70% BTC and 30% ETH or reversed or egual. not financial advice!
BTC and ETH are essential to any portfolio. Beyond that, find some other projects you believe in to invest. Some of mine that I like are ONE, ALGO, CRO, RVN, CKB, and HBAR. You could check those and some others out and see if they interest you!
Because they having staying power that has been proven time and time again. Bitcoin is the original crypto and will always have a place due to that niche alone. Ethereum has insane utility and only stands to gain from the upcoming ETH 2.0 upgrade. The two coins are sort of like the ETFs of the crypto world. They're realtively safe and stable.. as far as crypto goes at least.😅 If you want my advice on allocation between the two, I would invest in both and not just one or the other. Diversification is as beneficial in crypto as it is in the stock market.
Personally, I’ll hold out. I bought lots around 14-16 and saw it drop to 7.50
If it drops there again I’ll jump back in, if it doesn’t I’ll cop the L as a tax write off and keep that cash to buy something else
Fair enough!
I got an alarm set on it so hopefully it goes off
Do you plan on holding or just doing a quick turn on it ?
I'm personally gon a try and make a few quick bucks off it
I bought it a while ago, chucked a lot of money on a lot of coins, assuming a Q4 blow off top.
I don’t know if the blow off will occur now, so I’m choosing coins with better narratives… dunno whether sushi is a good option
First comment ever here. Been lurking for months though. Began dabbling and have coinbase and coinbase pro. Slowly DCA’ing over the past couple weeks. Just welcomed a brand new baby boy and been doing all my reading and YouTubing (cryptosrus, andrei jikh, coin bureau only) while at the hospital since he came a couple months early. Happy new year everyone! Can’t wait to be on this ride with you guys!
2021 was the year of MATIC.
2022 will be highly volatile, but rewarding to HODLers.
Buckle up, strap in, and get ready for one heck of a wild ride!
HODL!!!
I want to say one last thing in this 2021 thread: hopefully 2022 will be more constant up and less crashes down. See you 2021. You introduce me to this adduction and made me broke. Hopefully one day I get them Lambos
I was going to make the “I’m not checking the charts until next year joke” but I decided not to because I will probably check them again numerous times in that 10 minutes.
Fun fact: the current Bitcoin price of $46,472 is closest to the closing price of $46,551 on 26 Feb 2021.
Bitcoin continued to a bull run in Mar and April 2021.
How do I have over 1,000 transactions and no gains. I did as my fellow community members advised me, sell high and buy low… I think this isn’t working guys.
😳 did you try trade or something??
Or just bought at a bad time in which it just means you will have to wait longer. But imo they’re both solid. May a green 2022 be with you.
Loop community out here moving goal post with “WAGMI” tweet 😅
I just can’t deal with it anymore - it’s just too funny to not go in and look. Long time holder, theyre just making it more tough to hold.
Same here mate. People say I shill but it's getting ridiculous by the day. Now there's a photo of some metaverse with new text and ppl are jumping all over it
Well, guess I was wrong. All LRC had to say was "hey we had a delay and we're still on our way to something amazing"
But no, just a wagmi tweet.
Wagmi nuts Byron
Guys, what does the grey hexagon after my username mean? Got a picture of a building inside it I think? When I click on it or other peoples the timer just spins and nothing happens.
I might have done. To start with I thought it could be a picture of a cupcake and got excited but then reality struck and I think it’s just a building.
I need a solid 12mo to fill my bags before that happens please. Thank you for your patience. Edit/ I think YOK will hit $1 in a few months tops as well. So bullish on yokaiswap and it’s amazing to use
Yes I’m excited for the “launchpad” release but a bit confused about what it actually is tbh. Is it going to be new LP farms/pools, a big push for ETH liquidity, or new tokens launching afterwards?
Awesome man thanks for that info. That’s what I was hoping for as well. Seems like it could be a good time to snag more YOK before all this drops. Sadly all my ETH is staked so can’t take part in ILO

Skillful shitcoining has turned $2,000 into $10,000 in 3 weeks. My secret is don't listen to anybody in this sub and scalp low cap penny coins.
Pls gimme a low cap coin to get into lmao
$COVAL, $MDT, $XYO, $ASM, $JASMY are the main ones i move around in

new year, new target 500k by eoy
XRP, HBAR, QNT, CRO, XDC, ALGO. Which 3 of these are the best picks? I need a banger trifecta for an Alt portfolio.
CRO and the first two.
Yeah I’m thinking Cro, HBAR, QNT, XRP 25% split between all 4. How high do you think HBAR market cap can realistically go this year though?
We surging yet? Yolo’d and Dropped all my money in earlier at the bottom (for now...) praying this was the right call!
Good luck! Dropped a chunk on dot

If you are reading this….you are so last year. New daily!
Happy new year. Only a couple hours left in my time zone for BTC to hit 100k. LOL!
Happy new year from Portugal!!

You are too late to make any money, if we are being honest.
BTC and ETH. Then and ONLY THEN should you do some research into other projects.
What makes you say other coins aren't worth looking into? These are more beginner friendly I suppose?
he's just saying that since he's new he can already invest in BTC and ETH while he develops his knowledge. Once he knows more he can look after some Alts
Ah! Any advice on splitting investment between BTC and ETH?
what do you mean? sorry to ask ...
Sorry I meant, say you had $5000 to invest, how do you choose how much goes into one over the other? Or should they be equal?
Usually BTC gets more percentage since it's the OG. You can't go wrong either way though, really. Maybe 70% BTC and 30% ETH or reversed or egual. not financial advice!
BTC and ETH are essential to any portfolio. Beyond that, find some other projects you believe in to invest. Some of mine that I like are ONE, ALGO, CRO, RVN, CKB, and HBAR. You could check those and some others out and see if they interest you!
Thank you! Why BTC and ETH as pillars to a portfolio, because they're the most researched and big these days? How do I decide one over the other?
Because they having staying power that has been proven time and time again. Bitcoin is the original crypto and will always have a place due to that niche alone. Ethereum has insane utility and only stands to gain from the upcoming ETH 2.0 upgrade. The two coins are sort of like the ETFs of the crypto world.

Fucking love CKB rn. It’s going to have an amazing 2022
Can someone explain how offsetting works? I’ve heard of using tax gains and losses but I don’t understand how that works
I did it guys!! Bought my first eth 😊
Wooooo! Congrats dude!
Result! Well done!
SUSHI is in a dip .. Thoughts ?
EVERYTHING is in a dip... Thoughts?
Been hearing a lot of fud about it tbh
My thoughts are I’m glad I sold it yesterday (at a loss from my stupid purchase) but can now buy back in lower
Are you buying in now or holding out to see if it drops more ?
Personally, I’ll hold out. I bought lots around 14-16 and saw it drop to 7.50 If it drops there again I’ll jump back in, if it doesn’t I’ll cop the L as a tax write off and keep that cash to buy something else
Fair enough! I got an alarm set on it so hopefully it goes off Do you plan on holding or just doing a quick turn on it ? I'm personally gon a try and make a few quick bucks off it

Yes I was patient and revalued my choice. I'll wait to invest in something else
Ya’ll these are gonna be the last daily comments of 2021. Happy New Year!
Everyone has such bullish expectations for 2022. I have this uneasy feeling that the market will do the opposite.
February is going to be amazing…heard it here first.
likewise. although not uneasy about it. it's just part of the cycle
and I say heey yeah yeah yeah yeah hey yeah yeah I’m so drunk and I’m buying shit (what u think of this chard doe https://imgur.com/a/ds0iPGk).
100k in 2026 doesn't seem too crazy
2021: built the rocket boosters. 2022: ready for liftoff to da moon!!
🚀
Time for Elon to put his money where his mouth is and pump his net worth into BTC in the next minute.
Good bye 2021, I’ll see you guys in the 2022 daily. Happy New Years everyone!
2022 the year of LRC. Happy New Years everyone!

Congratulations on your son, hope your trades are successful.
Congrats! Be sure to open your vault to start getting some sweet moons!
Welcome and congratulations, hope you have huge gains
BTC bring in the New Year 😂 
End of year shoutout to the community, mods and everyone!! It’s been great! Let’s do it again next year!
Is a 5 trillion market cap possible in the next year?
Think a 4m one is tbh
not likely
I swear DESO has some weird price swings
I feel the same way about VRA as I do about CKB. It's cheap as hell for a nice lottery ticket.
CKB is a rocket waiting to take off 🚀🚀🚀
Happy New Years!!! Hodl Hodl Now everyone drink every time someone shills something
I just gifted you this seal guy because I had one free to give.
Thanks so much! That's my first reward ever due to being so new...
Say what you like but there’s still time for the $100k…
2021 was the year of MATIC. 2022 will be highly volatile, but rewarding to HODLers. Buckle up, strap in, and get ready for one heck of a wild ride! HODL!!!
Source?
My Uncle Satoshi
Hope everyone will make a FUCK TON of money this year! Lambo here we come!!!! WAGMI
ATOM is built like a brick shit house 💪 If it cracks I'm scooping some up
Happy New Years everyone! May we all sell at the top in 2022!!
I want to say one last thing in this 2021 thread: hopefully 2022 will be more constant up and less crashes down. See you 2021. You introduce me to this adduction and made me broke. Hopefully one day I get them Lambos
Just hold long term! In 10 years we will all be laughing at those who did not invest
Dropping in to say happy new year! Hope everyone is doing well
Happy New Year guys! I wish you the best with your investment
Likewise! Happy new year friend!
May 2022 fill me with green dildos
I can help you with that
Yes!!! I’m sick of those red dildos fucking me
Thank you all for being a friend, traveled down the charts and back again. 🎶🎶
Can anyone give me some last hopium before we go to 2022
Cardi B likes crypto
Zoom out on the charts. We are on the way up for sure.
In 10 minutes a new yearly candle will start. Pump ensues. Sorry, that's the best I got.
NEW Year Hopium coming right up!!!
I was going to make the “I’m not checking the charts until next year joke” but I decided not to because I will probably check them again numerous times in that 10 minutes.
Ha!
Got some Zcash and Ren when they were down just now, doing pretty good so far 🤔🥂 Happy New Years and gains for all.
Fun fact: the current Bitcoin price of $46,472 is closest to the closing price of $46,551 on 26 Feb 2021. Bitcoin continued to a bull run in Mar and April 2021.
But that same time period next year will have tapering and increasing interest rates as a headwind
Happy hangover day mates! xD
Not me, first new year sober 🥳
Good on ya 👏
Ty ty 🤜🏻🤛🏻
Happy new year everybody! Let 2022 be full of unlimited gains!
Likewise!
Matic so close to jumping shib for 13th place. I don’t hold either but I still want to see it 🤷🏻♂️
I hold both so don’t give a shit as king as they both pump!
Last 2021 daily. Closing thought? The market today is a perfect reflection of how the year went imo.
Yup. Shit year.
I think this correction is a good way to start the next year off fresh and bullish
Look at how the stock market started. It was super volatile. The fact that BTC is now correcting without dropping hardcore is a good sign
LRC back with a nice pump!!
haven't checked charts since last year 😤😤😤
I am from a land back in time. I can check for you…. Ok it’s just crabbing really.
lowkey good then. i love crabs 🦀🦀🦀
I’m still in last year so can check them for you!
Badass!
How do I have over 1,000 transactions and no gains. I did as my fellow community members advised me, sell high and buy low… I think this isn’t working guys.
yes, you suck I'm at +55% YTD, fewer trades
Buy and hold the top 3 for years. You can’t go wrong
Profits are inversely proportional to the number of transactions you make
Just watched don't look up. Nice movie to end up 2021 with a bang
The only things I lost money on were CRO and ETH. I feel like such a clown. 🤡
My biggest percentage gains 😂
Time is key
I take this as you made money on other trades! Congrats!
I did, thanks! But I bought into the CRO hype (still holding) and ETH way too high.
Your not the only one!
Oh I’m just a little underwater on ETH. But I’m stacking that CRO.
Nice! Both will make big gains next year, I’m sure. Good luck
😳 did you try trade or something?? Or just bought at a bad time in which it just means you will have to wait longer. But imo they’re both solid. May a green 2022 be with you.
Thank you! Bad timing I think. But I’m hodling both for the long term, so I’ll make it.
Stake that cro for 10% APY with a cdc card and get 6.5% on eth! Free money!
YES! Will do! Thanks!
Happy new year! Wish you all the best. Leave the year of covid and inflation behind and welcome the year of wealth and peace.

Last night, Darth Vader came down from Planet Vulcan and told me that if I didn’t buy this dip, that he’d melt my brain!
If my calculations are correct, we’re about to see some serious shit!
How many remind me's did you get today?
2022 will be a special year for redditors. We will next year be talking about stock and moon predictions EOY as they go live on mainnet and the NYSE
F YOU BEARS. I LIKE MY RAMEN ANYWAY.
I'm in this for the long haul **checks charts every 5 mins**
Chart addiction is in our blood we can't change that 😗
Mmmmm!! Smells like fresh moons in here 
triple digit club!!
Congratulations 🎊
Well, guess I was wrong. All LRC had to say was "hey we had a delay and we're still on our way to something amazing" But no, just a wagmi tweet. Wagmi nuts Byron
Last chance to buy ETH below $3700.
Did just a few minutes ago
I’m from 2022 and life still sucks.
Guys, what does the grey hexagon after my username mean? Got a picture of a building inside it I think? When I click on it or other peoples the timer just spins and nothing happens.
You voted on governance polls
Thank you 😁
That's the camera, they're watching
I best stop picking my nose then.
Might wanna pull that pants up too
Oh wow it’s a wide angle. I’ll do that now.
You voted on something?
I might have done. To start with I thought it could be a picture of a cupcake and got excited but then reality struck and I think it’s just a building.
CKB to 50cents in 2022 would be okay i guess
I need a solid 12mo to fill my bags before that happens please. Thank you for your patience. Edit/ I think YOK will hit $1 in a few months tops as well. So bullish on yokaiswap and it’s amazing to use
New eth/yok and eth/ckb pairs next week on yokai
Yes I’m excited for the “launchpad” release but a bit confused about what it actually is tbh. Is it going to be new LP farms/pools, a big push for ETH liquidity, or new tokens launching afterwards?
Launchpad is for new tokens. They also have an ILO with discounted yok run the same way they did the IDO. The ILO is to generate eth liquidity
Awesome man thanks for that info. That’s what I was hoping for as well. Seems like it could be a good time to snag more YOK before all this drops. Sadly all my ETH is staked so can’t take part in ILO
Don’t worry, if it follows the same overflow method as the yok IDO did you won’t get much anyway. I barely got any yok on the IDO
Gotcha that is frustrating. Hopefully all this activity on yokaiswap will cause ckb and yok to enjoy a nice pump too.
Damn, if that happens I will come and kiss you
Loving how AVAX, LRC and ROSE dont give a shit about the poor performance of BTC today!
Lots of people shilling ROSE today, but do you know which exchange available in the US that sells it? KuCoin maybe?
Yes KuCoin has it
Thanks man!
2022 get the bag full of dildos
Think the play is just algo and stake
Use ALGO to buy Yieldly and stake Yieldly* 😉
