Solana gets a lot of hate. And a lot of it is warranted. Some of it is not. But Solana just keeps on punching. I hope they get Firedancer rolled out to alleviate the ridiculous outages. Then get out of beta and live on main net. If they can do this with no problem, and push 300-500k transactions (which they’re fully capable of) then I think Solana will quiet the doubters. The fact that they’re still standing after the bludgeoning they took with FTX leads me to believe it would be unwise to bet against solana.
well, if youre going to offer interest on a commodity, then you need to explain where the money for the interest is coming from. It cant come from the Solana pot, as that money is already allocated to the holders. So wheres it come from? If you dont know, then the project is unsustainable and doomed to fail eventually.
@@scorch4299 yeah, I’ve been hearing the Solana gloom and doom tales for a couple of years now. But it keeps making me money. Bought at 8$ the first time around and it went to 260$ the whole while everyone doubted it. Then it dumped to 8$ again upon the FTX debacle and jumped to 25$ in short order. Already tripled up. It’s a risky play, but the tech is real. If they iron out the bugs, it’ll rip again. So you can sit on the sidelines hoping for its death, or get busy getting paid like the smart money. Whatever floats your boat.
@@vivarantx Did you not watch the video you are commenting on? Developers have stayed even after the whole ftx debacle and even when it went down to single digits and here you are saying 95% left....
Unfortunately I’ve missed on Sol in the last bullrun, but I’ve heard that the Sol chain had crashed at 400.000 transactions per sec (that’s a bloody high number.) Along with all the info you gave in this video - I’ll rather buy Sol right now
a secure blockchain NEVER goes offline. not even once. Solana has proven to be complete garbage. been offline several times. each time it's offline is an opportunity for theft.
Guy,,,, having the lamp on your desk rather than the illuminated globe is much better to viewers,,, especially when inserting a image giving much better contrast...
I think you need to distinguish some bad actors between the chain itself. Solana was hacked! Solana was manipulating its price! It might sound nice and simple but a dapp on solana was hacked, and a dapp on solana was manipulating tvl
This argument is dumb, as we have already seen coins that have large VC investment have an incentive to be pumped massively before any 'dumping' so unless you stick your head in the sand any holders will benefit
All chains misrepresent their TVL, including Ethereum. TVL (trash) is the most overrated metric on DeFi. For example, you can use USDC as collateral (1) and borrow ETH to provide liquidity (2), use the LP token as collateral (3) to borrow more and so on (money legos)... TVL will double, triple, exponencially count. Putting in numbers: (1) $1000 on AAVE (2) $700 on Uniswap (3) $500 anywhere ... Now you have $2200 TVL in the chain which should only be $1000 Not to mention liquid staking, etc... The only difference is that Solana's dApp dev did everything himself manipulating the assets that were in the dApps he created
How are you going to say Aptos is more decentralized and in the very same sentence say, "the only problem is that the details about Aptos's decentralization aren't available." 18:56 Also, there was a lot of information left out about SOL. The biggest being the Firedancer validator demo which has shown 600k TPS and 1.2 million TPS on duplication, this would fix SOL's downtime issues according to Anatoly. You mentioned the market caps but again failed to mention the Fully Diluted Market Cap of Aptos which would put it at roughly 17 Billion Dollars. This valuation is ridiculous as Aptos would be the leading L1 behind Ethereum, all for an L1 that barely has an ecosystem or developers. Your information is presented to tell a story of Solana vs. Aptos rather than present actual facts.
The big problem with Aptos is that has a huge amount of tokens that means high inflation since there is only 10 percents its tokens out of the market. I hope they will add the burn coins way to cut with the inflationary phenomenon
Solana released almost 300k tokens at once if you don't know yet the Market didn't cared. It's all Hype, Crowd Psychology at the end of the day. I think Aptos should go a minimum of 100$ above this Bull Run. Let's see
While you and Ben continue to play soggy biscuit with each other the rest of us can do our own dd and figure out you have missed out on crucial facts to suit your own bias and bags. All the best.
@@zboromat why? Because he needs it to explode as he has heavy bags that are under water. He probably followed that clown InverseAnswers’s retire on Solana models LMAO
It stands to reason that the resilience which SOL has recently shown in climbing from $9 to its current valuation would be more pronounced in the sort of rally that would most likely be associated with a 25k BTC.
Well, with Firedancer coming in 2024 (beta), even if things goes half good as planned then Solana will be the fastest chain out there by far. Solana has strong narratives and narratives drive the price.
Wow, that's true - completely missed that! I was early enough to buy two Helium miners and managed to earn a couple of thousands with HNT, but then the area I've placed the miners became crazy overfilled with those (18 miners in my hexagon instead of 1 - don't people do any research whatsoever, before buying?🤦♂) so I've taken my miners off the network and didn't pay attention to their news in the last 6 months. The migration happens in this quarter of the year - will follow the progress.)
@@kainv.9221 I got a Nebra Indoor Miner last year and finally received it when HNT was at ~$19US, and popped a good antenna 7 meters up, mined a good amount...and then, nada. Found out I should have copied and even upgraded the SD card. Had to reset a couple times, and the third time the SD card got fried. Now the miner is just a brick. Putting this out there as a warning and/or a plea-just in case there is a remedy for my dead SD card/miner...
@@kainv.9221 I'm presently making about$4-5 per month (on todays prices)... but the point is , I guess, in the long run whether its Helium or another project , the actual viability of a blockchain will depend on those apps which provide real utility/usage. ALL of them (including Eth/Ada,etc) will fall out of use if nobody is actually using them .... until then , all of this is just guesswork......
I actually like your market analysis vids, but I miss more of these pure crypto updates: project update, comparisons etc. Please make more of these 🙏 I've never been fan of Solana. And if some of the large cap crypto is going down during next Bull Run, my guess is that's gonna be Solana. Guy summed up my arguments really good. But I know plenty of ppl who disagree, so I hope that I'm wrong 🙏
I loaded my bags over Christmas and New Year after not buying for 6 months +. I have no idea why he keeps saying it took everyone by surprise, so many people were calling the bottom for the first time since the ATH.
@Don't Doomer it was the bottom, it was fairly obvious imo. Was validated a few days later when BlockChain Backer revealed he had purchased over the same period and called the bottom.
You always fud solana and gloss over it’s good points. Is it because you sold your sol position at the bottom?...No mention of firedancer? No mention of localized fee markets? Barely a mention of the solana phone... No mention of helium coming over to solana? You made sure to mention the two projects that left
If it’s one thing I have learned it’s that the kind of fud that surrounded solana is where life changing buying opportunities are made… all the media is smoke and mirrors but the development and partnerships for solana don’t lie. I don’t like the centralized aspect of sol but I know it wouldn’t be wise to bet against solana given that even the Eth foundation themselves mentioned that solana was their biggest competitor. That’s saying a lot to be fair.
It's worth comparing Aptos with Fantom. It seems to me that Fantom is still a bit undervalued, and it should have at least the market capitalisation as Aptos.
@@AntonioLopez-2050 , yes, Aptos is ranked number 26, whreas FTM is ranked 39/40. I think there is a bt more risk associated with Aptos, given its relationships, and FTM is just as fast and I believe has as many developers and a longer financial runway. In my opinion, the ranking should be the reverse.
I Love that Solana is coming out with their on Security Hardware Wallet Smartphone, called SAGA, I will definitely be getting one It takes 100$ to get on the Waiting List..
Have really enjoyed your contributions with Robbie, you three make a nice balance of hodl/dca/trading styles with all having diff risk appetites. I edify on a regular and my bank acct shows it. Although Im mostly a Cardano eco regular but do trade on coinbase as well.
Follow 50/20/25 rule and that’s it. 50% BTC, 25% ETH and 25% any other projects. That’s the solution because every other altcoin has got some inherent issues.
Thanks guy ! Could you take a look at Arbitrum and Optimism along with singularity Net and give your take on those at some point please fella I’d be interested on your thoughts! Thanks man !
Hey Guy, I really appreciated this video, as a medium-term Solana holder. I know you commented on not many people paying attention to this, but it was very relevant for holders such as myself. After watching your thoughts, I will hold not buy more. I also remember your earlier assessment of Aptos, lack of transparency, etc. There's just so much competition for the L1 SCM space, it's difficult to pick a winner right now.
I mean, it’s pretty obvious that the top smart contract chains are Ethereum, Solana, Polygon, and Cosmos (in that order). Back when the tech boom was occurring in the late 1990’s and early 2000’s, the successful VC firms would always look at 2 metrics: daily active users and engineering talent. If you could get those things locked down, your company was far more likely to succeed than other competitors in the same space. Even if competitors had “superior tech,” they still failed if they couldn’t attract the daily active users and engineering talent. This same logic holds true for blockchains as well. The two most successful chains so far (Bitcoin and Ethereum) had a massive advantage by attracting hordes of real users, and both have enjoyed a top-notch engineering community with lots of devs. IMO, Solana is the only chain that even comes close to hitting those benchmarks. Polygon might also get there eventually. The vast majority of their competitors are nothing but white papers, hype, and “partnership agreements” (which are basically just hype announcements). Go where the builders are actually building, not just the blockchain founders and tinkerers, but the application builders who build on top of those chains.
I honestly think both of these projects won't stand the test of time. It's only a matter a time before Solana goes down again. Aptos is a pure pump and dump scheme.
@MrWoody Solana hasn't actually gone down much at all, but more importantly it's gone down way less over time. It is still in Beta and this is huge progress.
This vid is not well done doesn't mention alot of good things solana has going but will make sure to mention the bad lmao Examples FTx alameda coins locked for 5 years bud Firedancer project Helium Just a few examples Not trying to pump up solana just saying if your going to mention the bad just make sure to mention the good
Aptos has ties to FTX and FB double red stop light but people wanna bash Sol…seems to me Aptos is in the same position as Sol or even worse behind the scenes so NO to Aptos
Thing about all these altcoins and inflation is: it benefits the founders of these blockchains for inflation to be high, those who are closest to the money printer benefit the most from it. And it's convenient that they can claim "oh yeah in 10-20 years the inflation will be 1% or deflationary" but of course not now, oh no, we need to pay ourselves. Not going to happen people.
Hi, u rso brilliant, love your videos! In this video you mentionned that we could find in the description your personal portfolio...but i could not find it. Could you please kindly send me the link?🙏thank you
I got a wee bit of Sol missed the under $10 price tag. Sol has major network effects so it could be something. L1s / L2s L0s are so competitive and so few will thrive that I tend to not invest in them anymore until there are more clarity it’s becoming really saturated
Tokenomics of APTOS is enough to not even begin comparing with SOL. It'll be dumped hard once the hype is gone with the support of new L1/L2 chains coming out in the coming months.
