The early participants that involved themselves in  airdrops and bounty made huge amounts of money from so many airdrops but what we are seeing these days is the opposite of what participants supposed to be getting from crypto airdrops.

Many projects that are launching Airdrops now are very greedy and they don't even want to reward their community in a way that everybody would benefit after so many tasks given to them to accomplish in the limited shortest time.

XRP is hard to predict. The pump always came out of nowhere. Sometime when bitcoin rally happens XRP also pump. Sometimes it didn't.
It doesn't even follow the altcoin cycle. I'd only invest in it if the price is cheap. As for now I'm focused on where the spotlight is which is ETH.

Trump is literally building defi in there securing billions in funds and TVL.

As far as am concern only bitcoin and Ethereum can give ROI, although Ethereum is just getting started like bitcoin, but Litecoin no no, because Litecoin can't give ROI as it stands now, litecoin is a coin  that is not even sure of getting to new all time high anytime soon the coin is still struggling with price which I don't see any future in that coin anymore. The only two coins I see future in  are bitcoin the father of all cryptocurrency and Ethereum the coin following bitcoin another coin aside this two coins is still struggling.

Well yes I do think it will make Ripple go on a very big 'bull run'. It did make some gains in this week but now it is down.
I do think it is because 2.2 Billion xrp did just move. https://www.binance.com/en/square/post/29109194263210
And I do think now is a good time to invest and buy some cheaper xrp. 1 is only now $2.79.

No.

That is not happening any time soon.

Check the LTCBTC graph and you'll see what I mean.

AXS has fallen to -98.6% from its 2021 ATH, falling even further --- while you shouldn't expect this rise to happen because it's impossible for me to believe in this token.

Besides, the Axie Infinity game is now outdated and no longer hyped, so it's likely that many communities have left this project, including the game itself. Therefore, look for other altcoins that have more potential rather than expecting this one to rise.

There are certainly some good airdrop out there, but it's hard to find.

Too many competition and dilution causes this. There are so many botters out there running their rigs 24/7 to bot the shit out of the project and that's why projects are starting to charge people fees to avoid this which I'm not a fan of.

Yes, airdrop of today is just full of scam, unlike back then where we can just submit address and get coins for free.

Well I do think there is alot of coins we can make profit in the next 'bull run'. And this week Ripple is up more then 4 percent. Only Ethereum and Solana did make more gains in that time for the top alt coins.

The exchange Gemini does now have a XRP credit card. It is only for the US so I will not get it but I do think it is 'bullish' news for this coin.

Short term or long term?

It is obvious that nothing can compete with bitcoin in the long term simply because none of them have any true potential or anything new to offer that is useful in the real world that can get them the adoption they need to truly grow.
This is evident from the past 16 years and tens of thousands of altcoins that have been created, many of which already dead.

In short term things are different. For example you may find a 24-hour period or longer where any shitcoin gets pumped big time and "outperforms" bitcoin! That is the natural course of the altcoin market. But that is just pump and dumps and for risk takers.
Another thing to consider for old altcoins is that their "pumpability" decreases over time. Because people get bored of them and also because the number of bag-holders increase over time. Therefore each time they get pumped, there will exist a larger number of bag-holders who will sell and dump the price sooner. This means a coin like LTC will have a much harder time to get pumped even in short term to "outperform" bitcoin...

Axie Infinity can't make comeback during the bullrun. my reason is

1. Overrated game and boring gameplay. 2d game in 2025 is just crap.
2. Inflated tokens and infinite supply
3. Not sustainable game economy
4. The locked tokens that probable gets unlock
5. Importantly less demand.

Those reasons are enough to explain why Axie will never ever make comeback during the bullrun. Just look at its performance during the November - December bullrun. It's very disappointing, isn't it?

It is very clear that litecoin is saturated already if that is the word I should use for you to understand.

Bitcoin gave higher ROI if you compared both since their highest prices in 2021 to now. Litecoin is very far from all-time high. I do not think litecoin can even get to all-time high because it is more than 3x lower than its all-time high.

This is very difficult to achieve due to several issues with the Axie Infinity project.
1. They don't have a maximum supply, so the potential for inflation is much higher than the potential for price increases.
2. The game's payout isn't as good as it sounds; some players are fed up with the mechanics.
3. I remember having to buy Axies before starting the game.
4. Axie's decline was too steep; their ATH was $165, and today it's only $2.39.

And the narrative surrounding the game project has really declined. Today's investment isn't focused on games that are just a waste of time and result in losses, especially with holding their tokens. If they don't offer substantial rewards and engaging gameplay mechanics that make the game enjoyable, there won't be a massive following.

Their user base has also steadily declined over time, and you have to remember that games are short-lived on the Web 3. Especially if the developer doesn't create a competitive game system and guarantees good returns, users will reconsider and try other, more profitable games.



There's no growth, and the data looks flat.

We don't know that, because last 2021 XRP didn't moved a lot. But to say that it didn't moved much recently, you've got to look at it several months ago on how much it was. The price of it right now is actually buffed and that's why those who have held for so long are into break even or those who have bought since last year might be in profit already. While others are trying to prepare for the next bull run and that's the right thing to do, we don't know if it will still be the same for XRP by that time comes.

Don't really need luck but contribute to their project.

However, there's something that these kind of article didn't disclose. It's the capital needed to follow an airdrop.
The recent airdrop like treehouse, huma, etc requires you to stake your capital and to get good enough money. Usually at minimum you need 10k USD or something to get 1k - 2k reward.

If you're doing testnet however, consider it already botted that you're more likely to get $5 out of it. In some case you can get really good airdrop like walrus, but that kind of thing comes once in a while.

Someone said that Bitcoin is for the rich, but that's not completely true. It might feel like Bitcoin is for the rich due to the media focuses on celebrities and billionaires buying and benefiting from Bitcoin. This creates a perception that Bitcoin is a rich person's asset. Even during network congestion, fees can spike making small transactions very expensive. But let's not forget that Bitcoin is neutral, it can empower the rich or help lift the poor, it actually depends on how communities adopt it. So understand that Bitcoin is for everyone, you can buy tiny fractions, not until you afford a whole Bitcoin.
