4 Ways to Make the Current Crypto Market Work for You
 |
| By Beth Canova |
With select exceptions, the broad crypto market is moving sideways as Bitcoin (BTC, “A”) trades just under a key resistance level.
One sector still outperforming is memecoins, which should be no surprise.
As our experts have explained, this these unique crypto assets have strong narratives and community support — forces more powerful than tokenomics in bull markets like this.
But there’s one project in particular that has caught the eye of DeFi expert, Marija Matić …
317% Rise Proves NOT Is More Than Just a Meme
Notcoin (NOT, Not Yet Rated) is a memecoin built on the Toncoin (TON, “B”) network. That’s the blockchain launched by the messaging app Telegram.
And unlike other memecoins, NOT actually has a purpose — to onboard users to the world of web3 through simple Telegram-based games.
That means it has access to Telegram’s estimated 1.562 billion total users and 800 million monthly active users. Talk about an impressive total addressable market!
In her Weiss Crypto Daily this week, Marija explains the additional factors supporting NOT’s incredible 317% gains … despite the broad market remaining lethargic.
She also expands on its future potential for investors.
But, as I said, NOT is the exception. The broad market is still in consolidation mode.
And that means the name of the game for crypto investors is pulling value out of your cryptos without relying on capital gains.
After all, if you’re already holding assets, why not make them to work for you when the market isn’t?
To that end …
Forget ETFs; There’s a Better Way to Max out Your Ethereum Returns
With the buzz around the highly anticipated Ethereum (ETH, “A-”) ETFs still humming, many investors are wondering if they should buy in.
And while ETH ETFs are an excellent option for those completely outside the world of crypto, those already in the market can find much better strategies for getting exposure to the No. 1 smart-contract blockchain.
One method is a process called staking. In staking, you deposit your crypto in return for yields.
And we’re not just talking penny rewards. These yields can often far exceed what’s available for the average investor in the TradFi markets.
In this issue, I reveal a few ways you can earn yields on your Ethereum … even as the market moves sideways.
How DeFi Can Help You Fight Inflation
And in his Weiss Crypto Daily, Juan Villaverde breaks down exactly where these yields come from and how they are sustained.
By demystifying the world of DeFi yield hunting, Juan explains how DeFi allows you to take the role of banker and market maker, positions gatekept from investors in TradFi. This access allows you to target supercharged yields.
But DeFi yield hunting isn’t the only strategy you may want to consider.
That’s because, no matter the sector, DeFi gives you the control over your financial future that TradFi won’t.
Starting with changing the way we think about the very foundations of the economy itself.
Own the Economy with Blockchain Technology
And that revolution is starting with the internet. The modern internet model — what we call “web2” — denies users the right to control their own content or digital footprint.
Think about it: When you go to any website, that website will usually collect your data and sell it … without needing your consent.
Imagine instead a system where web platforms are controlled by user consensus. That’s web3, or the “ownership economy.”
In his weekly tech breakdown, Jurica Dujmovic brings you into the nascent digital ownership revolution …
How it is starting to break beyond the confines of the crypto market …
And how both users and investors alike can benefit.
That’s all for this week. Keep an eye on your inbox tomorrow for even more crypto updates and market strategies.
