The Opportunity Cost of Holding Cardano Instead of BTC: How Much Are ADA Holders Behind?

3 days ago

The theory of crypto market cycles is one that’s been around for many years now. In essence, many traders and analysts are of the opinion that there’s a considerable bull market once every four years, usually predicated by the Bitcoin halving.
So far, that has been the case.
Within these major cycles, there are usually countless other mini-cycles where, during some instances, certain altcoins perform better than BTC and can deliver larger gains. But the risk of that is that if the user fails to exit their altcoin position in time, they might be left holding a bag that might never recover.
Is that the case for Cardano (ADA) holders?

The popular analyst Caleb Franzen recently took it to X to outline a painful truth about ADA.

Bitcoin Price Prediction: Analyst Defies Bearish Bias, Says Next Impulse Could Target $100K

3 days ago

It’s safe to say that Bitcoin’s price has seen better days. Just a couple of days ago, it dropped to a low of around $63,400 – a point that was last observed about a month ago.
Since June 7th, the BTC price has lost about 11%, with altcoins tumbling even harder.
This hasn’t deterred some analysts from remaining bullish, and CrediBULL Crypto is one of them.
$100K Bitcoin Price Still Possible
The well-known crypto analyst with 400,000 followers on X took to the social media platform yesterday to share his thoughts on Bitcoin’s price.
CrediBULL said:

Our last impulse took us from $38K to $73K in 1.5 months. That’s a $35K move in about 50 days.
The impulses that follow should be even more aggressive and we are trading at $64K.
Our next impulse could send us to $100K within 30

Ripple (XRP) Price Potential if Bitcoin Reaches $1M (ChatGPT Speculates)

3 days ago

In the following, we take a look at ChatGPT’s breakdown and analysis on the question of how high XRP can go if Bitcoin’s price reaches $1 million.
The $1 million BTC price prediction was made by the popular analytics firm Bernstein Research.
As CyrptoPotato reported earlier in June, Bernstein analysts predicted that BTC could reach $200K by the end of 2025. The experts further expect the cryptocurrency to reach $1 million by 2023, outlining:
“We believe bitcoin is in a new bull cycle. The ‘halving’ presents a unique circumstance, where natural bitcoin sell-pressure from miners declines by half (or even more, as they inventory more in anticipation), while new catalysts for bitcoin demand arise, leading to exponential price moves.”
But how may this affect other altcoins,

Massive Ripple (XRP) Price Prediction: Is it too Outrageous?

4 days ago

Ripple’s ongoing case is undoubtedly at the forefront of the cryptocurrency industry, and its outcome is likely to have an impact on the price of XRP.
However, analysts are taking the opportunity to forecast potential price points based on certain technical patterns, irrespective of the SEC lawsuit’s outcome.
One such analyst is EGRAG CRYPTO, who recently pointed out a bullish candle formation known as the quarterly hammer.
Ripple Price Prediction for 2024
The analyst points out that based on this pattern, XRP needs to close the next three-month candle above $0.55 – $0.58 in the next ten days. This would pave the way for a “mega pump,” but given the current PA, it might be a bit challenging.

The Potential Shiba Inu (SHIB) Price if Bitcoin Reaches $1 Million: ChatGPT Speculates

4 days ago

Artificial Intelligence has entered the scene with a bang, and that’s particularly true for OpenAI’s ChatGPT.
Although not accurate on multiple occasions, it’s always good fun to poke its AI-powered brains on different hypothetical scenarios. That’s what we’ve decided to do – combining existing predictions and potential developments.

Once the price hits this cycle high in 2025, Bernstein believes that it is likely to tap a whopping $1

Bitcoin Dips Below $64K, Ripple Gets More Troubles, Meme Coins Suffer: This Week’s Crypto Recap

5 days ago

It’s been a tough week, and there are no two ways around it. The total cryptocurrency market capitalization declined by more than $70 billion as Bitcoin’s price dipped below $64K.
It’s been somewhat of a rollercoaster ride throughout the past seven days as the BTC price attempted to recover on a few occasions but failed to regain its position. Last Friday, the cryptocurrency tumbled toward $65K but the bulls were quick to recover during the weekend. As soon as the new week started, though, BTC bears took control once again and negated all attempts of a swift recovery.
Now, Bitcoin is found trading at $64K, although it’s looking rather shaky. The liquidations are also spiraling up, meaning that a lot of futures traders are seeing their positions wiped off.
But the downturn

Bitcoin Price Loses $5,000, Meme Coins Take a Hit as Market Downturn Amplifies: This Week’s Crypto Recap

12 days ago

The cryptocurrency market experienced a sharp decline during the evening of last Friday. Bitcoin’s price crashed below $70K, prompting a considerable market sell-off. The total capitalization is down by about $100 billion in the process, currently sitting at around $2.57 trillion.
Everything was going well when the bears decided to have a late Friday night party. The move was sudden, pushing Bitcoin’s price below $70K and initiating a considerable downturn across the entire cryptocurrency market. It caused hundreds of millions of liquidations and also sparked fears of a prolonged correction.
The following seven days were incredibly choppy. The price plateaued during the weekend, but the bulls initiated a recovery attempt later during the week. Unfortunately, it was

Iggy Azalea’s Meme Coin Three Times Bigger than Andrew Tate’s

17 days ago

Back in 2021, it seemed like every celebrity was getting involved with the cryptocurrency industry through non-fungible tokens.
The Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) and CryptoPunks were the hottest collections, and mega stars like Eminem and Justin Bieber (just to name a few) were rocking NFTs as their profile pictures on Twitter (now X).
Three years later, it seems that multiple celebrities are now getting back to crypto, this time through meme coins.
Iggy Azalea’s MOTHER Meme Coin
Late in May, the Australian model and rapper – Iggy Azalea – announced her very own cryptocurrency.
Ticked MOTHER, the token rallied, reaching an all-time high of around $0.27, which put it at a market capitalization of close to $300 million. Currently, it is trading at a market cap of around $150

Andrew Tate Meme Coins Take Over Solana

18 days ago

It’s meme coin season, alright!
There are no two ways around it: meme coins are undoubtedly the main narrative on Solana, and it seems it’s just a matter of time before another celebrity jumps on board.
After Iggy Azalea, it’s now Andrew Tate who has put the Solana community on its toes. Tate-inspired meme coins are now the top trending cryptocurrencies on DEXScreener, amassing hundreds of millions of dollars worth of capital in less than a couple of hours.
It’s challenging to follow the precise timeline, but Tate has confirmed that he is, indeed, “creating chaos” in the crypto market and is attempting to “crash Solana.”
“There’s a lot of people asking me about all of this chaos I’ve created in the crypto markets as I’m trying to crash Solana. Millions of tweets have been

GameStop Should Buy Bitcoin Says Scaramucci, RoaringKitty Streams For the First Time in years

19 days ago

GameStop and its stock price have been the talking point of many crypto-centric and traditional finance communities throughout the past few days – not without reason.
GME’s price went on a massive rollercoaster this week, soaring by 130% and plummeting by 55% shortly after.
Many financial experts have chipped in with opinions, one of whom is the prominent BTC permabull – Anthony Scaramucci.

Bitcoin Unable to Recover Decisively, Ethereum Consolidates Below $3K (Weekend Watch)

May 12, 2024

The cryptocurrency market has calmed down considerably in the past 24 hours, halting the bearish assault and finding some consolidation in the process.
Bitcoin’s price is trading at around $61K on Sunday morning, while Ethereum is now firmly below the pivotal $3K level.
Are the Bitcoin Bulls Regrouping?
As CryptoPotato reported yesterday, Bitcoin’s price experienced a sudden correction, dropping below $61K and losing around 3.5% in a single day.
This seemingly had to do with a statement from a representative of the US Federal Reserve, who said that it may be too early to think about rate cuts.
The market has calmed down since then, and it seems that the worst is behind us.

Massive Bitcoin Volatility, Ripple (XRP) Trial, and CZ’s Sentencing: This Week’s Crypto Recap

May 3, 2024

Bitcoin’s price went on quite the wild ride throughout the past seven days. The cryptocurrency is down 4.2% during that period but this summary doesn’t do the action any justice, so let’s dive in.
The market was fairly calm in the beginning of the week, trading at around $64K with little signs of significant volatility. Things started going downhill after April 30th, however. It was then BTC took a massive hit, dropping toward $60K, sending many investors in panic.
The next day, on May 1st, BTC tumbled below $57K. This coincided with the first-ever day of IBIT ETF outflows. This is the spot Bitcoin ETF launched by BlackRock, which was up only in terms of flows until that date. The market has since been recovering, with BTC skyrocketing toward $62K today, recording gains

Bitcoin’s Chop Continues, XRP Gains as Ripple v. SEC Trial Begins, and More: This Week’s Crypto Recap

April 26, 2024

The market continues to chop, clearly unable to pick a definitive direction throughout the past seven days. The total capitalization currently stands at around $2.5 trillion, more or less where it was during the same time last week. However, there’s been substantial volatility, sending many leveraged traders into liquidations. Let’s have a look.
Starting with Bitcoin, it has failed to make any progress during the past seven days, but this wasn’t due to a lack of effort. On Monday, April 22nd, BTC bulls took its price toward the higher end of the current range—above $66K. Critical technical resistance lies at around $68K, and the bulls attempted to break above it on two separate occasions—one on Tuesday and one on Wednesday.
Both of these were unsuccessful. It appears that

The bulls attempted to push the price above $72K but fell short. Nonetheless, the primary cryptocurrency saw notable gains.

March 1, 2024

What a week! Better yet, what a month! Did you know that Bitcoin has never had a month as good as February 2024? That’s right, the cryptocurrency closed its best-yet candle, and we haven’t even gone through the halving yet.
The pre-halving anticipation of higher prices is palpable as spot Bitcoin ETFs continue to see outrageous inflows. The total cryptocurrency market capitalization exploded to $2.4 trillion (per CoinGecko) as BTC charted a 21.3% increase in the past seven days alone.

Bitcoin Bulls Regroup as Ethereum and Binance Coin Take the Center Stage: This Week’s Crypto Recap

February 23, 2024

This week saw quite a bit of action, which ultimately failed to result in any substantial gains or losses in the total cryptocurrency market capitalization. The figure stands at $2.057 trillion, according to CoinGecko – up ever so slightly compared to this day last week.
Bitcoin’s price charted a decline of 2.8% in the past seven days, as the bulls were unable to remain above the important technical level at $52K. And it wasn’t for the lack of trying. In fact, BTC was trading above or very close to $52K for quite a while during the past week, but the bears eventually took over and managed to push the asset downwards.
Now, the cryptocurrency is found trading below $51K, charting a decline of about 0.7% on the day and 2.8% on the week.

Solana’s ecosystem has been booming in the past few months, giving birth to a number of meme coins that came to prominence only to decline and subsequently fade into oblivion. That hasn’t been the case with WIF, however, as – by all measures – it appears that the dog, indeed, still has a hat.

The Most Populat Airdrops to Watch For in 2024

February 15, 2024

Whether you’re new or a seasoned DeFi user, chances are you have heard the term airdrops every now and then.
That’s because airdrops are a popular marketing strategy for DeFi protocols and crypto companies for several reasons:
It allows protocols to reward their community members for their activity and engagement in their respective platforms, thus further incentivizing users to stay in the protocol.
It helps projects drive awareness and new traffic to the brand and a product/service —especially if they’re releasing their native token.
As DeFi evolved through the years, so did the way protocols planned their airdrop campaigns. Crypto projects are constantly developing sophisticated airdrop strategies and better ways of delivering rewards, like gifting non-fungible tokens
