ADA and CHarles H. style and overall walled garden approach to cardano or ADA is a do whatever u want in ADA eco system or blockchain but get checked at the boarder ie when you leave or transfer funds on and off there will be strict KYC.
This is in direct contrast to ETHEREUM and privacy first, DeFi, DEXs, all that good stuffs you would need to make your identity known in the ADA world.
anddddd they still have not really gone live. but ya lets see. Other worth block chains worth a look here soon, not in order
ALGORAND or _ALGO is def usa CIA whatever spooky lol or whatever backed out of universities ALGO was sponsored and with all the backing and money in the world this project is one of the first pics for governments to use as the blockchain or new ETH style internet for their government issued stable coins.
Then we have _DOT old ETH comrade in arm with vitalik, with the project focused on scaling through a tech called sharding. this will in theory make it easier for blockchains to communicate and transfer data whatever on a much more scalable level then most other blockchains.
_ELROND and the _NEAR protocol r interesting _AVAX or Avalanch is in the _SOL type category for me. or what i call wait n see Then we have Cross chain and layer two projects, in short, these are the technologies that will help let blockchain tech work well with current utility we use everyday on the internet etc and keep data and money safe crossing to different blockchains etc (u see all the hacks many if not most are cross chain exploits ie money moving from blockchain to BC) _COSMOS _ARBITRUM _OPTIMISIM,io are the big and really only relevant players I know about at present. AND dont forget about Oracles or data feeds basically _LINK has such a head start here its never going to be fair competition in this niche of crypto. Runner up worth checking out is _BAND and i heard someone say _UMA is a competitor but I thought that was more a synthetic type derivative project kinda like _SNX or Synthetics Also like CRO rite now and maybe a few other long shots like OCC ZKS YFI CRV AAVE MKR LEND CRV ENJ MANA n APTOS or APT the new facebook token project whatever needs its own post but yes def watch her
PS at least for me the trick is yes following all these project and yes sometimes in many positions but very very small ones and more place holders to help keep tabs on these guys but as far as serious trading i really try to stick to one major move at a time and at most 3 positions so i can properly manage and watch them . ive learned that in this volatility you can really do well by catching the pumps and dumps here and there. 10 to 30 percent gain hell or hi water sell if not outro on to next. if she does keep charging ok skrew it u missed 5 percent ie buy back in and if a drop its usually at a minimum half to 70 percent of that recent gain. at present im more interested in trading BTC and ETH with some ZKS on their L2 DEX trading platform and thats it.
