Re: Risks tied to using a single exchange

on 30/08/2025, 08:38:56 UTC
Yeah youre right! no CEX is flawless Binance, OKX, Bitget, Bybit, Kucoin and many more theyve all had downtime before. Thats why I always keep accounts on a only limited cex, it’s just smart risk management and same way you diversify assets. Relying on one exchange is not good. But its always better to keep the funds or asset on a non custodial wallet for maximum protection.



No exchange is flawless though but I haven't experienced downtime while trading futures with Bitget even when the market goes crazy that's why I stick to them till this time.. anyways yeah diversifying is key and to be safe your suggestions are valid.

Why I've been Choosing Passive Income Over Trading Pressure in 2025
by
Phoenixtrader
on 26/08/2025, 16:47:12 UTC
It’s been a solid year for me in the crypto space. BTC smashed its ATH, SOL too, along with some other high-profile alts. I’ve managed to keep up with it all, from trading to staking to even airdrops, haha. That’s why I diversify my portfolio with tokens like BGB, SOL, SUI, and HYPER to give me an edge in terms of passive income.

For example, from January until now, I’ve earned over $4.4k just by staking BGB on Launchpool, without the risks or the pressure that come with leveraged trading. And now I’ve spotted another opportunity: the BTR Launchpool is here again.


I’ll be sticking to the same strategy that has worked for me before. no trading, no futures pressure, just staking. How’s your year been so far trading wise?

It did 10x - 20x from pre sale. My biggest fumble in this cycle not investing into this one.
Should've known that the hype is enough to make the valuation sits at around 20B, it's after all endorsed by POTUS. If you're curious just see the future market in binance. The price is already set, even after the dump post futures listing it's still 10x of the presale price.
I guess those people who bought it are lucky.

Damn, didn't know on time too.. anyways when I spotted it on Bitget perps, I took a quick a quick scalp trade myself.
. Through the price has tanked a little now, but I'll keep an eye for long entries this week.. we could see more, 20-40x soon.

I just saw something interesting. Remember WLFI (World Liberty Financial), the DeFi project tied to Donald Trump, Eric Trump, Steven Witkoff, etc.? They have announced that their token will be listed on September 21.

If you have been following this token, you will notice there is already an insane amount of hype. I have also spotted high-value exchanges listing it in pre-market and even in futures trading, including Bitget, Binance, OKX, and a few others.

I have seen this kind of hype before, but often the price trend does not match the momentum after launch. Could this time be different? What is your opinion?

Re: PI Pioneers and their pride
by

on 23/08/2025, 07:01:17 UTC
Pi hype has come and gone, but the project is still standing, and to me it shows one thing, and that is that it has people who believe in it and also a believing community alongside the devs. I won't be surprised to see it thrive in the next coming years, as every day we're seeing Pi pioneers increasing in numbers. And one funny thing about them is that they tend to believe that one day 1 Pi will be able to buy a car, lol. Till then, we'll be looking forward to it. And also, I can't blame them - they have opportunities lying ahead for them as a pioneer, like getting to earn up to $150 worth of the token if someone refers them, and many more. Are you also a pioneer?
I am not a pioneer and never holding this token. I was even pessimistic about the project and fortunately, after a long time those who have held into its promise were able to cash out. If that's the pride that you've got guys, good luck further with this project. Not going to bother you and tell you to stop dreaming, we've got dreams as well and if you become successful holding this token, we're happy for all of you. But we have to analyze and understand the actual tokenomics that it has got and all of the prices that you're optimistic about.

What about users like us with locked PI? ahaha . Anyways like OP said, maybe this referral event
vsn create more exposure on the token and we'll see more highs on it.. it's ATH was around $3.1 and one thing I've learnt is that nothing is impossible with crypto

Re: The Rise of Yield-Bearing Stablecoins

Where can someone earn 10% by holding GHO? I guess that would be on exchanges. I mean centralized exchanges.

I can not hold on exchanges. I only saw that it can be saved on Bitget to earn 10% and not 15%.





Not your key not your coin.

Yeah it's on exchanges, they could be a decent offer on Defi apps though. It was 15% earlier, probably Thrhrr influx of people taking advantage of the yield that's why it's reduced. But as a crypto person, you can do without Cex, at least I can't.. you'll just have to be careful and choose one with decent record.

The Rise of Yield-Bearing Stablecoins
by
Phoenixtrader
on 20/08/2025, 11:47:54 UTC


Holding stablecoins is starting to get more rewarding. In the past, they were just a safe place to park money, but now exchanges and projects are finding new ways to give people returns for holding them.

Take GHO as an example. Right now, you can earn around 15% APR just for holding it. This is a limited-time offer, but it shows a bigger trend: platforms are competing for stablecoin users by offering higher yields.



The question is whether this can last. Big promotional rates usually drop once enough people join. Still, with more stablecoins in the market and growing demand for them, we might be moving toward a future where earning yield on stables becomes normal.



If that happens, simply holding stablecoins could turn into a steady, low-risk way to earn passive income in crypto.

Today feels like a quiet Monday in the market, which is perfect for me. I’m using the time to plan my strategy for the Bg Trading Club Championship Phase 4. I’ve already earned the rewards from Phases 2 and 3, and now I’m ready to go all in by trading spot, building up my volume, and securing my place in this round.




This event has been like a cheat code for me. It keeps me consistent, pushes me to improve, and has helped me discover some really good trading gems. Phase 4 feels like the right chance to take things to the next level. Let's see how it goes.. what's your plan for today?.

LiveFi and the Rise of Creator-Led Trading in Web3
by
Phoenixtrader
on 09/08/2025, 05:10:25 UTC
A lot of crypto creators get ignored or don’t have the right partnerships to help them get noticed. Because of that, many talented people end up hidden from the spotlight. Communities and forums like this one help, but it’s still tough for many creators to grow.

That’s why Sidekick caught my eye. Their idea of LiveFi is pretty unique.  it’s about bringing live-stream trading into the Web3 world. This means users can trade, share, and chat in real time, making the whole process more fun and interactive.

It’s backed by YZi Labs, which gives the project more trust and support. If they can pull this off, it could really change the game for crypto creators, giving them more visibility, new ways to earn, and better ways to connect with their communities.

It feels like the kind of idea that could make creator-led trading much bigger in Web3.

Re: Is Base the new Solana?

Base tokens are also common but not common like solana meme coins. I know about Base through an exchange and they have a section for it on the exchange just like Solana.

But if not that common like I think, I still see that most tokens there are bump and dump just like the Solana tokens and I avoid them.

Hmm. That's interesting.. might keep a closer eye to get what you're saying.. always have you come across the token I mentioned?.

Is Base the new Solana?
by

on 06/08/2025, 04:37:51 UTC


I’ve been closely monitoring the Base ecosystem to see what’s happening there, and I was surprised by the number of quality projects building on it. Most of us are still focused on Solana and ETH, so it’s not getting as much attention.

One project that caught my eye is TOWNS — they let you create your own private versions of apps like Discord or WhatsApp groups, but you get full ownership and can even make some money from it. It’s an early discovery for me, so I’ll be doing more research to understand exposure levels, etc. I’ll be back to update the thread.

Are you a fan of Base chain? What have you discovered?

Re: $ETH at 10 Years — Overperformed or Underperformed?
by
Phoenixtrader
on 04/08/2025, 09:45:31 UTC
Do you think it has underperformed, or is it doing okay?
Mostly underperformed up to borderline okay performance. A lot of people who have little knowledge watch only the USD chart, which is wrong. Many people who got some ETH would have bought BTC instead if they didn't. If you look at the ETH/BTC chart it looks bad. It has bad performance even with all the lobbying and bribing that can come from a centralized project like ETH.
I disagree.
I was here when it first came out, even before the fork that happened which show ETH and ETC diverge their path. I can tell you that nobody thought it would be as big as it is today.

It was about 9 dollars when I first saw it, and I do regret not getting some, I wish I bought with all my money, but that is the old days and no need to keep regretting. So nobody assumed a 4k+ barrier would be broken when we were back at 9 dollar price.

All these "why isn't it 10k+" questions came in much later, when people saw the bull run it had in 2021.

There were even talks of flipping bitcoin at some point, when you get that much confident with your investment, what seems like an unrealistic expectation, becomes an expectation.


I saw BNB at $2 and $ETH sub 1k but I didn't get in..so I'll say I've got regrets but I'm trying to remedy the situation over the years by accumulating VIA DCA steadily or trying to explore events like candybomb to earn more.. I think due to the potential of ETH, exceptions were unrealistic but I'll say it's done fairly well. If you're looking for opportunities to expand your portfolio, you can checkout candybomb for ETH..spot trading gets up up to 1 ETH if you meet the requirements.

$ETH at 10 Years — Overperformed or Underperformed?
by
Phoenixtrader
on 03/08/2025, 08:53:35 UTC

Ethereum is officially 10 years old. Honestly, I thought we’d have smashed $10K by now, but the reverse seems to be the case. Given its potential, I personally feel like it has underperformed.

That said, could this finally be the year we see ETH hit $5K?

The recent dip, coupled with platforms celebrating ETH’s 10-year anniversary, came at just the right time for anyone looking to accumulate. I’ve personally been holding ETH for about two years now, and honestly, I could use a little upgrade in my portfolio.

I guess the real reason for this thread is to hear from you:
How do you feel about ETH’s 10th anniversary?
Do you think it has underperformed, or is it doing okay?

what's stopping $PI from hitting $5
by
Phoenixtrader
on 31/07/2025, 12:53:41 UTC
It’s been 5 months and 11 days since $PI started trading on exchanges, and to be honest, I’m still waiting to see its true potential. Back in February, it reached an all-time high (ATH) of $2.98, which got a lot of people excited. But since then, things have gone quiet, and the price hasn’t come close to that level again.
Now, with the upcoming token unlock, there’s been some fresh sentiment on X.

Some platforms are even offering rewards to people who deposit PI, probably to build hype and help the token grow again.

That brings up a couple of questions I’ve been thinking about:
What’s holding $PI back right now? Is it lack of interest, weak market conditions, or something else?
Can $PI reach its ATH again soon? Or is it going to take more time and real progress to get there?
It still feels like the project has potential, but something is stopping it from taking off. I’m curious to hear what y'all think—especially with all the talk around the new rounds of unlock scheduled.

Re: This is the kind of project I want to be getting in early on right now.

This means Ref Finance is a protocol platform that is under the Near base network? Is that right? Didn't there ever even be airdrops for crypto communities that will use their platform?
What are the benefits that those who use that platform will get?

Then it's in a low cap, I think many people can gamble on it because it's just a low cap that some will think that it's possible
for the price of their RHEA native token to suddenly pump up.

You could. Read up on Rhea via their twitter Rhea finance . But I believe there'll be incentive for ecosystem supporters though, and they had airdrop distributed recently..

Yeah it's low cap that's why I'm bidding for it via this candybomb opportunity, I'm using one stone to kill two birds here..

There’s been real volatility in the crypto market over the past few weeks, and with BTC dominance (BTCDOM) down, alts are finally catching a breather. We might not see another bull run for another 3–4 years, so projects like Rhea Finance, with a low market cap and real utility are exactly the kind I’ll be bidding on moving forward.

It’s a platform that helps people trade, lend, and manage digital assets (like Bitcoin and other cryptos) across different blockchains. It mainly runs on the NEAR network and brings together two projects — Ref Finance (for trading) and Burrow Finance (for lending) — into one simple platform.

Their token, $RHEA, just launched and the market cap is around $2.8 million. That could be a steal if you take the time to analyze its utilities and backing.

Have you tried this kind of strategy before, or what kind of projects do you usually go for?

Have you ever received a mid-year bonus at your job?
Yup.

It's mandatory for some governments and applies it to the corporations that are into their jurisdiction. But I think that most companies, this is a voluntary action and just having it, makes you feel home.

Should you want to work just for the mid and end year bonus, I don't think it's worth it if you have a better job that you're working on flexibly.

Yes yes yes

Re: GameFi seems to be going in circles.
by
Phoenixtrader
on 22/07/2025, 05:02:44 UTC

I’m saying this because I haven’t seen any breakout GameFi project in recent times, even though the market is green. What could be the issue? We’ve seen projects with potential, but once the hype dies down, that’s usually the end.

Anyway, I’m keeping an eye on Yooldo Hames — another GameFi project that seems to have momentum right now. They just launched their token, Esports, and it’s backed by Binance Alpha and listed on Bitget Spot. The community is growing, but I’ll be watching to see if it’s just hype.
Honestly though, why do GameFi projects fade out so quickly?

GameFi seems stalled even during the bulltrend. If you're wondering what the issues, and i will break it down.

1. Game quality, Majority of crypto game still used very old engine, and mostly looked like 1900s games.

2. Game Economy, All crypto games have no sustainable economic. People who played it only cares about how to earn, then dump the token.

3. Lack of innovation, Crypto games are so damn monoton, and never think to push it to another level by adopting the latest game engine combined with new story such as sci-fi, or etc.

As for Yoldoo games, it doesn't seem a solid game token considering it's majority listed in the 2nd & 3rd tier exchanges. I think it's just pure hype, and will be going down once it gets inflated.

You're spot on. Wish this could change but I believe they're others gamefi projects that are building.. yoldoo is listed on T1 exchanges already. But it's 14% down currently.. maybe early listing volatility who knows, or airdrop sellers are selling off..let's see how it fares soon.
