To make the biggest gains in crypto, you need to position yourself in the strongest narratives.

Some of the trends outlined in this thread still have potential to generate 50x opportunities.

🧡: 8 crypto narratives I'm eyeing right now. πŸ‘‡

 These are the trends that I'm currently trading, or closely monitoring.

I believe all 8 of these narratives have potential to perform strongly.

This list in no particular order.
Remember: When it comes to narrative trading, you're identifying and betting on relative strength.

So although in some cases these projects can perform against broader market movement, most altcoins still adhere to general $BTC price action.
This means if there's a major #Bitcoin rally - the strongest narratives will tend to elicit the best gains.

And in many cases, will also be least affected by price dumps as there's enough demand-side pressure to mitigate sell-offs.

But treat each project on an individual basis.
1. ZK

Ahead of the zkSync and StarkNet token releases, in conjunction with the upcoming Polygon zkEVM launch - ZK-related protocols have been performing strongly.
It's undeniable that ZK is the future of scaling Ethereum.

ZK-rollups help alleviate congestion by 'rolling up' transactions into batches that are executed off-chain.

I did an in-depth thread on my favourite ZK projects a few weeks ago.

2. LSDs

Liquid staking derivatives allow you to earn yield on crypto assets like $ETH, whilst maximising capital efficiency.

This trend is currently being driven by 2 catalysts:

1. The upcoming Shanghai upgrade
2. The SEC's regulatory crackdown on centralised staking
As we approach the Shanghai upgrade, LSDs like $LDO, $FXS and $RPL are gaining momentum.

Shanghai will be a major driver of aggregate $ETH staking, as it will finally allow redemptions of staked ETH from the Beacon chain.
Also on the regulatory front, the SECs inclination to clamp down on centralised staking services (like Kraken) is, in my opinion, a huge catalyst for decentralised staking adoption.

Although I am wary of intervention on this front.

3. Perp DEXs

This has been one of the strongest performing sectors over the last 6 months.

$GMX led the way, followed by competitors such as $GNS, and now newer iterations are coming along, like $VELA.

But, I believe there are still opportunities in this space.
Long term, it's highly likely that other DEX models like AMMs and order-books start to play a more significant role in this space.

But at least in the short-medium term, oracle-based DEXs like $GMX have a distinct UX advantage.
One also can't understate the brand recognition these protocols have been able to generate.

The $GMX and $GNS brand identity will presumably enable them to pivot in the future if need be.

The go-to-market and onboard users quickly approach is something we've seen work well.
I'm always on the lookout for new DEXs, as I believe that this is the single biggest growth vertical in DeFi over the next few years.
4. Real Yield

There has been a monumental and much needed shift in the way DeFi yield models are perceived by both developers and investors.

Through the trials and tribulations of 2021-22, reliance on emissions has decreased in favour of tangible revenue distribution.
Whenever you approach a DeFi investment, ask yourself: Where is the yield coming from?

If the answer is "from protocol fees", then you're on the right path.

But be careful, some projects claim to be "Real Yield" despite employing shady mechanisms to manipulate data.
In many ways, Real Yield could be considered a research perquisite as opposed to a pure "narrative".

I wrote a thread on it last year, which includes more information and project picks.

Since then we've also seen many more quality DeFi projects pivot.

https://t.co/dysPJEAUU2
5. Decentralised stable coins

We've recently seen the SEC crackdown on BUSD, and there continues to be ambiguity surrounding the regulation of other centralised stables like USDC and USDT.

The need for a truly decentralised stablecoin is clear.
There are a few promising players in this space, from $AAVE and their upcoming GHO stable, to $CRV and CRVUSD, $FXS and more.

The protocol that nails the decentralised stablecoin model, and integrates it effectively - will be a big winner.
6. AI

After ChatGPT became the fastest application in history to hit a million users, prompt investments by the likes of Microsoft and Google were made into the AI sector.

This resulted in AI altcoins exploding, as speculation ran rampant.
But, the important thing to recognise here is that AI and crypto is EXTREMELY early, and much of the recent price action is being driven more by speculation than fundamentals.

@avichal explained this in an interview I did with him a couple weeks ago.

https://t.co/L35iBECDnA
This is an extremely news-based narrative. So despite frothiness, it becomes very difficult to short due to the propensity of news to have a short-term positive effect on prices.

https://t.co/XXNO48dp6f
The important thing to note is that strong trends tend to outperform during expansionary periods.

So if #Bitcoin exhibits bullish price action, it's hard to ignore an explosive narrative like AI.

This thread includes nice explanations of 16 AI projects.

https://t.co/7q6QDfHkth
7. GambleFi

The theory behind decentralised gambling is extremely similar to DEXs: People love to gamble, and need places to do so on-chain.

We haven't really seen many quality gambling projects launch yet, but I believe they're coming.
@LouisCooper_ has been doing a great job researching and providing updates on this sector.

https://t.co/MqvmcShfjl
8. Chinese Coins

The following factors have been recent contributors behind many of these coins pumping:

β€’ Chinese monetary stimulus
β€’ Hong Kong crypto legalisation
β€’ Increased Asian open interest
There is a lot of alpha in the Asian Twitter community, and due to the language barrier a lot of it flies under the radar.

Here are some of the top creators to follow (make plenty use of the Twitter translate button).

https://t.co/jBPkQj1jVw
Here's a list of Chinese coins that I'm watching.

Note: This is purely from a trading perspective, and any entries/exits will align with technicals.

The fundamentals on many of these are dubious, and many don't fit my framework for long-term positions.

https://t.co/qHfVu22YXw
I didn't want to focus on EVERY narrative in this thread (as there are many), but if you're interested in learning about more - this is a great thread.

https://t.co/CrOUTmwRjH
I'll be posting updated threads on some of these narratives in the future, as well as covering new ones as I identify them.

IT WAS RISHI KANADA WHO GAVE THE ATOMIC THEORY & TALKED ABOUT THE GRAVITY OF EARTH, 2600 YEARS BEFORE AN APPLE FELL IN FRONT OF NEWTON'S EYES:

Scientists of the modern world credit an English scientist John Dalton (1766 CE -1844 CE) for the Atomic Theory.


And this is because, most of us are not even aware of an ancient Indian Sage named Kanada, who was the first to formulate the theory of atoms, almost 2600 yrs before Dalton and talk about earth's gravity.


Rishi Kanada was born around 600 BCE in Dwarka, Gujarat and he was the son of a philosopher named Ulka. He was fascinated with the minute detailing of the things right from his childhood. Once, when he was very young, he accompanied his father on a journey to Prayaga.


He saw plentiful grains scattered along the path leading to the shore of river Ganga. It's a tradition in Hindu families to scatter the grains for the ants and birds to feed on them. Suddenly, an ant caught his attention, who was feeding on a rice grain.


He was mesmerised by this very fact that how a small grain of rice becomes food for the ant but to satisfy the hunger of a person so many grains are needed together. This incidence made him realize the importance of a single grain of rice.

1. #Qanon told us that Saudi Arabia is a central piece of the puzzle in taking out the Deep State...we are watching the Deep State attempt to remove Crown Prince MBS and disrupt Pres Trump's administration's ties with MBS and the "new" Saudi/US coalition. Early in his admin,


2....@Potus sent Jared Kushner (JK) to SA on an undisclosed trip and told King Salman that business as usual was over, and if he wanted Pres Trump's support, Prince Alwaleed would have to be divested of $ and power; Alwaleed is one of top Deep State $ men and was tied to HRC.


3. @Potus knew that before he could begin cleansing the US and the rest of the world of the DS, he would have to cut one of the financial head's off the snake (Alwaleed). After JK met w/ King Salman, Alwaleed was arrested and divested of billions; MBS became leader of SA.


4. SA loves Pres Trump because he's a man of his word; SA could not trust Hussein or Clintons because they use SA for oil and leverage; SA has many factions, but essentially you have the new and upcoming SA that is attempting to modernize through Crown Prince MBS, and then you


5...have the old guard represented by Alwaleed who was one of the Deep State financial heads and loyal to the DS more than SA; SA knew Hussein was financing Iran to hold western world hostage, and SA was caught in middle of Deep State black mail; this is why @Potus was celebrated

This is my son, Sam. He’s 5. And today he learned how shitty and harmful #ToxicMasculinity is. My rage meter is spiking right now so excuse me if this is a little raw but there are some things I want to say about BS #gender norms (a thread)


Sam is my middle child & he’s a terror. A β€œboy’s boy” as so many (not me) would say. He’s rough and tumble, he’s loud, he’s always dirty, loves trucks, plays sports and knee drops me from the couch. But he also loves a lot of β€œgirl” things.

Sam has a collection of purses because he likes to carry things around. And he also loves to have his nails painted bright colors because he thinks they β€œlook beautiful.” And he’s right – they are beautiful…


So he proudly wore his red nail polish to kindergarten this morning because Sam has absolutely no concept of nail polish only being for girls or reason to think anyone would possibly have a problem with beautiful nails.


But his classmates did have a problem. A big one. Sam was ridiculed for being a boy with nail polish. They called him names and told him to take it off. This lasted the entire day.

Once upon a time there was a Raja named Uttānapāda born of Svayambhuva Manu,1st man on earth.He had 2 beautiful wives - Suniti & Suruchi & two sons were born of them Dhruva & Uttama respectively.
#talesofkrishna https://t.co/E85MTPkF9W


Now Suniti was the daughter of a tribal chief while Suruchi was the daughter of a rich king. Hence Suruchi was always favored the most by Raja while Suniti was ignored. But while Suniti was gentle & kind hearted by nature Suruchi was venomous inside.
#KrishnaLeela


The story is of a time when ideally the eldest son of the king becomes the heir to the throne. Hence the sinhasan of the Raja belonged to Dhruva.This is why Suruchi who was the 2nd wife nourished poison in her heart for Dhruva as she knew her son will never get the throne.


One day when Dhruva was just 5 years old he went on to sit on his father's lap. Suruchi, the jealous queen, got enraged and shoved him away from Raja as she never wanted Raja to shower Dhruva with his fatherly affection.


Dhruva protested questioning his step mother "why can't i sit on my own father's lap?" A furious Suruchi berated him saying "only God can allow him that privilege. Go ask him"

Next there is a Brahm Narad dialogue describing the avtaar of Bhagwan. Then the characteristics of Puraan are mentioned.

It also discusses the evolution of universe.( https://t.co/2aK1AZSC79 )

Next is the portrayal of Vidur and his dialogue with Maitreyji. Then there is a mention of Creation of universe by Brahma and the preachings of Sankhya by Kapil Muni.


In the next section we find the portrayal of Sati, Dhruv, Pruthu, and the story of ancient King, Bahirshi.
In the next section we find the character of King Priyavrat and his sons, different types of loks in this universe, and description of Narak. ( https://t.co/gmDTkLktKS )

Yantrodharaka Anjaneya Temple, Hampi, Karnataka.

This temple dedicated to pawanputra Hanuman, near the banks of Tungabhadra river was built by dwaita philosopher and rajguru of the Vijayanagar empire, Sri Vyasaraja around +500 years ago.


:It is only in this temple that Hanuman appears in a prayer position. In this image, Bhagwan Hanuman’s crown has been formed by his tail.12 monkeys have been carved around this amulet.


:They represent the 12 days Sri Vyasaraja prayed to Hanuman ji. Each monkey holds the tail of the monkey in front of him but is facing backward. Seed syllables have also been carved around the amulet.


:It is believed that Sri Vyasaraja used to draw a picture of lord Hanuman here on the rocks before offering prayers using charcoal and the sketch disappeared after prayers.This incidence happened for 12 days in a row until he pleaded to bhagwan to appear in front of him.


On the 12th day, Hanuman ji appeared in front of Sri Vyasaraja and blessed him. Hanuman asked Sri Vyasaraja to constrain him in a hexagonal amulet & install him in that place.

Manipulation Sign:

If you are compromising too much, there is a chance that you are getting manipulated.

Why are you the one that's always compromising?

How come the other person always gets their way?

Be more curious.

If something seems off, stick up for yourself.

'Wait, you sure I am being manipulated?'

I have no clue, that is only something that you can decide for yourself.

'Dang is there anything I need to look out for?'

Plenty..

But let me give you a few things to look out for.

πŸ‘‡

I see manipulation as skillfully controlling someone's behavior for egotistical or unethical purposes.

'How come people don't leave when it's happening to them?'

Because most people have 0 clue that they are being manipulated.

1. Guilt Trip

You ever made a mistake around someone, only for them to hold it over your head?

The will always bring up the mistake when you 2 are not seeing eye to eye.

These people will use that mistake as leverage to get what they want from you in the future.

Look out.

2. The Rationalizer

This person will commit the worst acts & find a way to rationalize it.

Example: cheaters when they get caught.

They have every excuse in the book for why they did it.

Heck, they are so good at rationalizing, they will make it seem like your fault.
