- 🚨 Let's talk altcoins and market dynamics 🚨
You might think that an altcoin’s price will rise due to compelling narratives, increased TVL in DeFi, or bullish events. This can work for a while, but eventually, supply can outpace demand, leading to a downward spiral driven by inflation.
Early buyers often get trapped, causing bearish sentiment, reduced TVL, devs jumping ship, and team members quitting.
The biggest change this cycle? Dispersion. We're used to altcoins pumping together, but now there are around 300 decent projects. There's simply not enough liquidity for all to thrive.
For example, $LDO, $MATIC, and $ARB are priced lower today than a year ago.
Consider this: there are many more "utility" tokens now than in 2021. Weekly, 3-5 "quality" coins enter the market. Total3 market cap rises, and everyone appears happy. But who will buy all these tokens?
Unless institutions or retail investors flood in, it could remain a PvP fight forever.
What do you think?
- Dear Crypto Trader,
Sometimes the best trade is no trade.
During periods of boredom/apathy, there's no need to force a position if there isn't an obvious setup.
Be patient, keep researching, and when the stars align on a thesis/trade - back it with conviction.

- Dear newbies,
$BTC is NOT naturally going down. It is being pushed down via whales placing spoofy sell orders on exchanges to make noobs and risk managers sell to ‘buy back lower’. They are stealing your bags and will make you buy back at a higher price.
Don't fall for it
- In 4 years, the Total Value Locked in all of DeFi has grown from less than $ 1B to $ 150B.
This one chart explains why I'm laser focused on DeFi. This decade as:
-More assets are tokenized
-Total crypto market cap increases
-A higher % of crypto enters DeFi
This number is going to hit and surpass $ 1 Trillion. Massive amounts of capital will flood into DeFi and if you stand in front of a flood you're going to get wet.
- 🚨 BREAKING:
The original photo of dogwifhat, featuring Achi the dog, sold for 1,210 ETH ($ 4.3 million+).
This can only happen in a bull run, what do you think?
- Bull runs are like a game of musical chairs.
While the music is playing, everyone is having fun, making money.
But we all know that, at some point, the music will stop.
Your one job is to not be the last one dancing.
It's gonna be one hellova ride friends.
- Stablecoin inflows to Solana have started to ramp up again, with the stablecoin supply on the chain increasing everyday for 10 days straight.
When in a bull run, always pay attention to data like this, it guides you in the right direction
- The people who consistently make money in crypto are the people who enjoy being actively in crypto not you that wants a quick 100x
Sure you can get lucky and buy a 100x but what is sure is you’ll either roundtrip it or lose it back in the long run
In the last few weeks, we’ve had an influx of normie/retail interest in crypto, many who don’t really care about how it works, they just like the PNLs they’ve been seeing and want a part of it.
A lot of us are reaping the rewards of grinding with no profits all thru a 2 year bear market.
Crypto rewards active participation, you can’t reap where you did not sow.

- JUST IN : Bitcoin attains now ATH if $ 70,000
A memorable day for Bitcoin and the entire crypto community
- Generally if you sell during a bull market, it should not be with the intention to try and buy back lower.
It should be because you want to take some off the table and have the stables/cash set aside for a rainy day or to allocate elsewhere.
Selling and attempting to buy back lower, tends to leave a lot of people behind while they try it. Bull markets are not very forgiving in that regard.
- The actions you are taking today might not pay off tomorrow...
Or next week...
Or even next month...
But they will eventually.
All you have to do is trust in the process, trust compound interest and keep putting in the reps every day.

- Liquid Restaking has been gaining so much momentum recently and this is just the beginning.
Liquid Restaking TVL
Nov. 1: $ 47M
Dec 1: $ 71M
Jan 1: $ 296M
Feb 1: $ 1.39B
Today: $ 3.92B
I think we will see $ 10B TVL in no time
- Imagine spending $ 40 gas fee to bridge to scroll.
And the funny part is that you might still not be eligible for their airdrop. 💀
It can never be solana., that's why I love Solana with all my heart ♥
- Looks like the guys at Starknet have finally realised that the community is absolutely livid with them and they are planning on making adjustments.
I personally think the damage has been done and they have already lost the trust of the community. Do you think there will be a new announcement from the team soon?
- $Starknet Active accounts peaked at 226K yesterday, & now it's back to 64K..
One would have expected active accounts on starknet to increase drastically on the very day they announced their airdrop, but that has not happened. This is what you get when you fail to reward real users who have been transacting on your L2 blockchain for several months.
- TWO BIGGEST MISTAKES IN CRYPTO
1. Getting your conviction in a coin based on price action.
This will cause you to sell low and buy high. 90% of people do this.
2. Getting your conviction from others.
This will cause you to buy something because an influencer shills it. He uses followers as exit liquidity and sells high. And when price dumps, your conviction in price takes over and you sell at a loss.
Your conviction should come from research and personal use. Find value before others. Sit on it until the money finds value. When price matches your conviction, then sell it.
- You're doing it wrong if you stop airdrop farming now for the sole reason that $STRK was [mostly] a failure
In fact, that's exactly what the airdrop overlords want you to do
$SEI was even worse, and what happened shortly after?
▫️ Jito
▫️ Manta
▫️ Celestia & Dymension
▫️ Jupiter
For every disappointing airdrop, there are 4-5 heavy hitters launching afterwards, making everyone cope for not engaging
So keep farming Anon, your next big Airdrop is just around the corner
- We are through to the final!! Naija no dey carry last and we no dey gree for anybody!!
- Over the past 24 hours:
Solana did as much DEX volume as Ethereum mainnet.
Arbitrum did more than 1/3 as much volume as Ethereum mainnet.
Sui did more volume than BSC.
DeFi is evolving
- I hope you did not sell your Wen anon? 😅
- $ZETA token is about to launch and the team has just announced that they will be rewarding testers!!
If you have 50k points then you qualify
Snapshot Date : 20th August 2023
Congratulations to everybody who got in
- The newly launched Starknet v013.0 mainnet offers 50% gas reduction on average transactions and transactions are now alot faster
LFG! It's time to launch $STRK token 🪂
Are you ready!?
- New Starknet update
1 hour ago, Starknet began testing the bridge for the $STRK token from Ethereum to Starknet🌉
🔗https://etherscan.io/token/0xCa14007Eff0dB1f8135f4C25B34De49AB0d42766…
👀 The holder count increased by 438
Airdrop in a few days maybe?
- Even in bull markets, it's important to remember that dips are completely normal and should be expected.
As momentum builds, the dips tend to become shorter and are quickly bought up.
Always have a plan in place and stick to it.
- 📉 Why is Bitcoin dipping post ETF approval?
1. Speculation Fizzled: Pre-approval hype led to high expectations, but the actual approval didn't trigger the expected pump.
2. Profit-Taking: Investors seizing profits or selling due to disappointment in the absence of an immediate surge.
3. Money Shift to ETH: Some moving from Bitcoin to Ethereum, anticipating ETH's upcoming spot ETF and viewing ETH as undervalued.
Positives:
- Bitcoin ETF achieved $ 4.3 billion in volume, a historic feat.
- Wall Street embracing Bitcoin opens doors for trillions to enter the market.
Hold tight and be patient; Bitcoin's journey to $ 100k-$ 200k+ is envisioned as companies will continue to allocate billions to buy BTC over time.
- If the Titatic sank today....
The urge for people to bring out their phones and record even the most tragic events is quite disgusting 😏
- Starknet has been successfully upgraded to v0.13.0
Are we are going to see STRK announcement next?
Fingers crossed 🤞
- “History doesn't repeat itself, but it often rhymes”
Looking back on prior cycles will give us an idea of what comes next.
It's never guaranteed to play out exactly the same, but it allows us to understand capital rotation.
We are currently in Phase 1- Bitcoin
Dear Anon, are you well positioned?
- One underrated benefit of airdrop farming is that it forces you to learn about a certain chain/ eco.
By playing around with swaps/ LPs/ dApps and bridges, you develop a deeper understanding of the on-chain world.
Oh yeah and you can make some relatively easy $$ as well.
- U.S. regulators approved bitcoin ETFs, dramatically broadening access to the 15-year-old cryptocurrency.
The Securities and Exchange Commission on Wednesday declared effective key filings from the markets seeking to list the groundbreaking products. They will begin trading on Thursday. Bitcoin's price topped $ 47,500 following the decision. Other cryptocurrencies rallied, too.

- The guys at Starknet just moved some $STRK tokens after a gap of 33 days
They sent 6 transactions of 1 $STRK each and it seems like they are testing some smart contract interactions
It could be a possible Airdrop claim test, or else why will they move 1 stark token? 🪙
📅 Are we going to be seeing airdrop claim page in a few days? Fingers crossed 🤞
- Crypto just saw its largest 30-day capital inflow since Jan. 2022.
Our exit liquidity is coming back
- The strongest performers are the ones that retail can easily understand.
No surprise that AI, GameFi and Meme Coins round out the top 3 by web traffic.
In crypto, you're trading attention. Use it your advantage.
- Merry Christmas everyone. It's been an eventful year on Phaver and I am sure 2024 will be even better.
Keep Phavering and see you in the new year

- Friendly reminder:
Before buying any memecoin, ask yourself:
“If this coin went to 0, would I be okay?”
If the answer is no, strongly reconsider your potential purchase.
- There will be lots of big dips all the way to new ATHs.
This happened in all the past cycles. I doubt this time will be different.
The market will do its best to constantly test your conviction.
Remember, dips are for buying in an uptrend.
- 10 important questions I ask before aping into a project.
- Is there a potential narrative behind the project?
- Is the value proposition simple to understand?
- Are on-chain stats like holder count, volume, and TVL bullish?
- Are smart money and whales interested in the project?
- Why would others buy into this project?
- What is the holder distribution like?
- If my thesis is invalidated, where will I cut my losses?
- How long am I expecting to hold this project for?
- How does this project fit into my portfolio?
- What production stage is this project in? Early stage projects are higher risk higher reward compared to more mature projects.
- Is good to remember that all is probabilities dear anon...
You can't control what the market does, or what externalities life throws at you.
All you can do is put in the work, engage in massive daily action, and try to make yourself worthy of the success you aspire to.
- If you buy now, the market goes lower.
If you don't buy, the market goes up.
I don't make the rules 😅
- Solana flipped ethereum in 24hour dex volume again... Are you not entertained? 😅

- Hackers can crack passwords quickly these days.
1) Make sure your passwords are unique and strong.
2) You can use a password manager such as BitWarden or 1Password.
Don't fumble the bag because you didn't cover the basics.
