Inflation, like fiat, is a killer for many crypto assets. #cryptocurrency submitted by /u/Hedge_me [link] [Kommentare]

I have been in crypto space since 2018. I saw many OGs at that time quit. Never feel disappointed like now. Even in last bear market when btc hits 10k, I'm still opptimistic. I'm still holding but I'm not buying dip. With the same money, I would rather put into AI stock and hold another 3 years. submitted by /u/Yike_Pp [link] [Kommentare]

Hi everybody! I try to upload image of Mai trading history if you see it here I have been shorting small crypto coins that pump hard and then they dump. This has been working good so far the last 4 months with around 300 trades. I wanted to add some more confirmations and therefore asking you if you have any ideas what I can add? If there is some indicator about bag holders selling or tape reading from all crypto exchanges combined? submitted by /u/Traditional-Judge-32 [link] [Kommentare]

This is just a casual topic. It’s clear that you should stick with BTC and maybe some of the major alts like SOL, etc... But sometimes I like to look at the charts and think, “It’s a shame I didn’t buy back then, before those massive 50x gains,” hahaha. Do you have your hopes pinned on any particular coin for huge gains like that? Sure, it’s just dreaming, but why not? submitted by /u/dannyxdii [link] [Kommentare]

Whether you’re a fan of crypto or not, it’s obvious that it’s driven by speculative money. Believers in the tech are the minority. Put it this way, if BTC never rose past $10, almost none of us would be here. Speculative gain is the fundamental fuel that keeps crypto alive. Without it, everything goes the way of NFTs. But now, that fundamental fuel is gone. Speculative interest has moved to AI. People aren’t waiting 4 years with crypto, when they can get rich in 4 weeks with AI and chips. That’s also why crypto has decoupled from the market and keeps going down no matter how the wider market moves. It’s also why the 4 year cycle isn’t valid anymore. FTX and previous dips were different. Those dips were fuelled by risk and fear. But risk and fear have never stopped speculators. It’s the reason why they are speculators in the first place. Crypto could recover from those dips, because people still wanted to get rich quick, and crypto was the best way. This time is fundamentally different because there is a better and faster way for people to be greedy. Crypto is no longer the best way to be greedy. Crypto can survive fear, but it cannot survive greed. And AI isn’t going away. The smartest people and biggest companies in the world aren’t investing trillions in AI for nothing. They are going all in because AI is obviously here to stay. submitted by /u/interstellar_nips [link] [Kommentare]

Many would have seen this many times over the years, but this is for those who haven't. If this relates to you just drop a comment lol submitted by /u/gh0stprotoco1x [link] [Kommentare]

ADA isn’t “early” anymore — it’s just been dead money At what point are we allowed to stop pretending ADA is just “undervalued” and admit it’s been one of the most painful long-term holds in crypto? One recent Reddit post flat-out called it one of the worst long-term investments they’ve ever made, and honestly it’s hard to argue when the chart looks like this. ADA is sitting at $0.1454 right now. Not $1.45. Not anywhere close to the levels people were dreaming about when the 2021 hype was in full force. And that’s the real sting: people didn’t buy this thing to celebrate that it “probably won’t go to zero.” Recent coverage says a literal zero is extremely unlikely, but that is such a pathetic standard for something that was sold as a serious long-term winner. This is what bagholders still don’t want to hear: surviving is not the same as performing. If you’ve been holding since the mania era, you’re not looking at some misunderstood gem — you’re looking at years of opportunity cost, broken expectations, and a chart that keeps humbling anyone still calling it a top-tier play. Even now, ADA’s 50-day moving average is $0.20946 and its 200-day moving average is $0.27989, both well above the current $0.1454 price. That’s not strength. That’s a coin trading below both trend lines while people on social media keep recycling the same “just wait” story. Maybe ADA doesn’t go to zero. But for anyone who bought the dream years ago, watching it sit at $0.1454 is close enough to a financial insult. submitted by /u/LeanCrafterUK [link] [Kommentare]

Drop your favourite goat blockchain currency. No fucking memecoins allowed in this discussion. Btw, fuck Trump, the dirty ass orange loompa! submitted by /u/Timely-Fig2030 [link] [Kommentare]

> Article except. Throughout much of 2026, Strategy has relied heavily on the issuance of perpetual preferred shares like STRC to raise billions of dollars to fund the majority of its bitcoin purchases. But that doesn't come without cost. Those securities carry roughly $1.2 billion in annual dividend obligations, while the company's cash reserves have dipped to around $1.4 billion, according to CryptoQuant. This has created a negative feedback loop that has put pressure on STRC, which itself hit a fresh low of around $71.40 on Friday before recovering to close at $74.72. That's nearly 26% below its intended $100 par value. submitted by /u/zesushv [link] [Kommentare]

TL;DR: While Grass pays you for sharing your unused internet bandwidth, ONTO Wallet pays you for sharing your verified human data. ONTO offers a more targeted approach for AI companies seeking high-quality training data, potentially leading to higher value yields. The DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) narrative has exploded, with projects offering users ways to monetize their unused resources. Two popular projects in this space are Grass and ONTO Wallet, but they monetize entirely different assets. Grass operates by selling your unused internet bandwidth to AI companies, who use it to scrape the web for training data. You are essentially renting out your internet connection. ONTO Wallet, on the other hand, monetizes *you*. Specifically, it monetizes your verified human metadata. AI companies don't just need bandwidth to scrape data; they need cryptographic proof that the data they are training on comes from real humans. | Feature | Grass | ONTO Wallet | | :--- | :--- | :--- | | Asset Monetized | Unused Internet Bandwidth | Verified Human Metadata | | Mechanism | Background Web Scraping | Opt-in Data Sharing via DID | | Value Proposition for AI | Access to raw web data | Access to verified, high-quality human data | | Privacy Focus | Anonymized routing | zkTLS and granular user consent | If you want to passively earn by sharing bandwidth, Grass is a solid option. But if you want to leverage your digital identity and provide the high-value, verified data that AI models desperately need to avoid model collapse, ONTO Wallet is the superior platform. Q: Does ONTO Wallet slow down my internet? A: No. ONTO does not share your bandwidth; it securely shares your verified metadata based on your consent. Q: Which one pays more? A: It depends on market demand. However, verified human data is increasingly seen as a premium asset compared to raw scraped data, which could translate to higher value over time. Q: Can I run both? A: Yes, they operate independently and monetize different resources. References [1] "DePIN and the AI Data Supply Chain," Messari Research, 2026. submitted by /u/Rc7xn [link] [Kommentare]
