Blockchain Roadmap
Most Tokens Go to Zero in the Long Run

Many crypto tokens are created primarily to benefit a small circle of insiders and VCs. These project's tokenomics focus on enriching their founders rather than delivering long-term value, leading to a lack of genuine commitment to the success in the long period.

Most of these tokens lack intrinsic value and aren't truly connected to the technology they claim to represent. Without real utility or solid fundamentals, they're prone to losing value over time and will eventually become worthless by underperforming market leaders for long enough.

During bull markets, even weak assets can experience significant price increases due to overall market enthusiasm—the "rising tide lifts all boats" effect. This can give the illusion that these tokens are successful when they're simply riding the wave of market optimism

When the market corrects, investors typically shift their capital from speculative, overhyped tokens to solid projects with proven track records. Funds flow back into fundamental blue-chip crypto assets like BTC, ETH, and SOL, which have demonstrated resilience

What is funding in crypto trading? 💸

In cryptocurrencies, funding refers to the funding rate that is redistributed among traders holding positions in perpetual futures.

Funding is a periodic payment/write-off for traders with open positions in perpetual futures, which allows them to compensate for the long-term difference between the price of the underlying asset and the derivative contract.

The need for funding arose from the idea of ​​perpetual futures, which have no maturity and can be held indefinitely. Therefore, to compensate for the difference in the price of the asset and the contract, a financing rate mechanism was launched.

Types of stablecoins

Today, we’ll tell you about the three main categories of stablecoins.

▪️ Stablecoins backed by fiat currencies

These coins are backed by real-life assets, fiat money, or paper money. Two examples of this stablecoin are Tether (USDT) and USD Coin (USDC). The companies issuing these coins own large reserves to support every issued coin; however, Tether has come under intense scrutiny in the past for this specific issue.

▪️ Stablecoins backed by cryptocurrencies

Some projects are so bold that they’re willing to back their stablecoin with other cryptocurrencies (not real assets or money). For example, a crypto-backed stablecoin with a value of $1 could be supported by a crypto asset worth $2. The logic here is that if the underlying asset’s value were to drop, the stablecoin would still be able to maintain its dollar peg.

The most famous crypto-backed stablecoin is Dai (DAI).

▪️ Algorithmic stablecoins

Algorithmic stablecoins are not backed by assets or fiat currencies, which makes it difficult to understand why or how they’re stablecoins in the first place. As their name indicates, the value of these coins is controlled by computer algorithms. If the stablecoin’s value is pegged to $1 but rises above $1, the code will automatically mint and release more coins into circulation to lower the stablecoin’s value back to $1. Conversely, if the value drops below $1, the algorithm will remove—or burn—coins from circulation to lift the value back up to $1. The amount of coins you hold will change, but they’ll always reflect the value you own.

Please note: Stablecoins are not dollars—they’re cryptocurrencies. Even when dealing with stablecoins, investing in crypto carries inherent risks—case in point the collapse of Terra’s algorithmic stablecoin TerraUSD.
🟢Swing trading

🔺Swing trading is a type of longer-term trading strategy that involves holding positions for longer than a day but typically not longer than a few weeks or a month. In some ways, swing trading sits in the middle between day trading and trend trading.
Swing traders generally try to take advantage of waves of volatility that take several days or weeks to play out.

🟢Swing traders may use a combination of technical and fundamental factors to formulate their trade ideas. Naturally, fundamental changes may take a longer time to play out, and this is where fundamental analysis comes into play. Even so, chart patterns and technical indicators can also play a major part in a swing trading strategy.

👉Swing trading might be the most convenient active trading strategy for beginners. A significant benefit of swing trading over day trading is that swing trades take longer to play out. Still, they’re short enough so that it’s not too hard to keep track of the trade.

👉This allows traders more time to consider their decisions. In most cases, they have enough time to react to how the trade is unfolding. With swing trading, decisions can be made with less haste and more rationality. On the other hand, day trading often demands fast decisions and speedy execution, which isn’t ideal for a beginner.
Ripple effect of Fiscal Policy on the Crypto Market

Fiscal policy, the government's approach to spending and taxation, has a significant ripple effect on cryptocurrency markets. Increased government spending often stimulates economic growth, pushing investors toward cryptocurrencies as alternative assets. Conversely, high taxes on crypto gains can dampen trading enthusiasm, shifting market sentiment.

For instance, during economic downturns, stimulus packages pump liquidity into the economy, often leading individuals to turn to cryptocurrencies as a hedge against traditional financial uncertainties. On the other hand, stricter tax reforms on crypto earnings can create hesitation among traders, slowing market momentum.

Expansionary fiscal policies that lead to inflation further amplify crypto's appeal, with assets like Bitcoin seen as reliable inflation hedges. When governments back blockchain initiatives, it boosts credibility and accelerates crypto adoption, fueling long-term growth in the market.
Cryptocurrencies look to offer several benefits over traditional money.

➡️These include:

➡️Speed: With cryptocurrencies, sending money – or value – across regions or continents happens in a few minutes. This trumps traditional cash, which takes hours to days in some cases.

➡️Security: Cryptocurrencies run on blockchains, which are distributed and decentralized. Since they are not centralized, there’s no single point of failure. This makes the blockchain harder to corrupt or hack.

➡️Censorship-resistant: Anyone can use cryptocurrencies. They offer users financial freedom. No government or central authority can censor or reverse a transaction once it’s completed
Blockchain Technology

🌐A blockchain is similar to a database but better. Databases store a large volume of data electronically on a computer or on servers made up of powerful computers. These servers are often centralized in a location and built for easy storage and retrieval of data.
The blockchain differs from a database in setup. Unlike a database, the blockchain is a decentralized public ledger. The computers powering the network are not all under one roof or operated by one single individual.

➡️In addition, a blockchain collects multiple data together in groups, otherwise known as ‘blocks.’ These blocks have specific storage capacities. Once filled, the blocks are chained and added to the previously filled block to form a chain of data known as a “block-of-chain” or the “blockchain.”
In the case of Bitcoin, the blockchain stores every Bitcoin transaction initiated on the network.
Cryptocurrency Mining

▶️Before transactions are stored on the blockchain, they need to be verified. The blockchain network also has to be maintained. And more importantly, new cryptocurrencies are to be created from time to time. These tasks are carried out by a group of people called “miners.”

▶️Cryptocurrency mining is the process of validating crypto transactions and then adding them to the network in exchange for crypto rewards. To validate Bitcoin transactions, for instance, miners have to solve complex mathematical questions using powerful computers. This is called the Proof-of-Work (PoW) consensus. Solving these equations involves powerful computers and energy, making the PoW an expensive endeavor.
➡️Bitcoin miners who successfully solve the problems are allowed to add blocks of verified transactions into the blockchain. These miners are paid a reward of 6.25 Bitcoins (about $262K) for their trouble.

▶️Other cryptocurrencies, like Solana and Cardano, use a Proof-of-Stake (PoS) consensus, where miners secure and maintain the network by “staking” their coins. PoS consensus attributes mining power based on the proportion of coins staked or held by the miner.
👛Cryptocurrency Wallets

➡️Unlike the US Dollar, cryptocurrencies don’t have a physical form. You can’t hold Bitcoin or Solana in your hands. They are digital assets that are transferred over the Internet. A digital or cryptocurrency wallet is a storage facility for your crypto holdings.
➡️Technically, cryptocurrency wallets don’t store your crypto funds. They store your private keys. A private key is a password that proves ownership of your crypto holdings and is used to initiate transactions. Since your crypto lives on the blockchain, the private keys are required to provide access to the digital assets.
🗂Types of cryptocurrency

➡️There are several types of cryptocurrency available in the market today. Some of the most popular ones include

➡️Bitcoin, Ethereum, Ripple, Litecoin, and Bitcoin Cash.

➡️Bitcoin, being the first and most well-known cryptocurrency, is often considered the gold standard in the industry.

➡️Ethereum, on the other hand, is known for its smart contract capabilities and has gained popularity among developers.

➡️Ripple is a cryptocurrency designed for fast and low-cost international money transfers. Litecoin, often referred to as the silver to Bitcoin's gold, offers faster transaction confirmation times and a different hashing algorithm.

➡️Lastly, Bitcoin Cash is a cryptocurrency that was created as a result of a hard fork from Bitcoin, with the aim of increasing the block size limit for faster and cheaper transactions. Overall, these cryptocurrencies offer different features and use cases, catering to various needs and preferences in the digital currency space.
How to buy your first crypto

➡️The crypto and blockchain ecosystem offers myriad exchanges and platforms where you can buy and sell cryptocurrencies.

➡️Navigating these services can be intimidating for first-timers; however, developers in the industry create and design products with everyone in mind, making buying crypto as easy as ordering something from Amazon or buying a plane ticket.

➡️An excellent place to start for pure beginners is selecting a top-five crypto exchange—e.g., Binance or Coinbase. Once you’re set on one, all that’s left is to create an account and buy crypto by following a few simple steps.

➡️There are, however, other ways to buy digital currencies besides Binance.

➡️You can buy crypto on a decentralized exchange or a P2P market or mine it.
✅️Introducing the Crypto Exchange

🔴Buying cryptocurrency is just like buying foreign currency for a holiday. It is just an exchange of one currency for another at an agreed rate - e.g Euros for BTC (the currency symbol for bitcoin) - which is why the most common place to buy cryptocurrency is called an Exchange. 

🔴It might feel confusing when cryptocurrency like bitcoin is talked about as having a price, whereas for dollar, euro etc we are used to talking about an exchange rate. 

➡️These two terms - price/exchange rate - are interchangeable and simply reflect the fact that currency values - especially crypto - are constantly changing. 

🔴The price simply reflects the interaction between buyers and sellers on each Exchange, which organically maintain parity with each other. (again explained in detail elsewhere). An overall representation of price can then be reached by aggregating the price from the main exchanges.
What Is Crypto Market Cap?

The term “crypto market cap is” short for “cryptocurrency market capitalization”, which is a metric used to determine a cryptocurrency’s relative size and value. You can calculate it simply by multiplying a coin’s current price by the total number of coins in circulation. However, you may not even need to do so as many cryptocurrency platforms calculate it for you.

Crypto market cap is often used to rank cryptocurrencies, with a higher market cap generally indicating a more stable and widely accepted cryptocurrency. Conversely, a lower market cap usually signals a more speculative or volatile asset.

Do note, however, that this is just one of the many factors to consider when evaluating a cryptocurrency's potential. Several other factors, such as technology, team, tokenomics, and use cases, should also be considered when researching cryptocurrencies.
If you're new to crypto, you may often come across strange words in chats and posts. Here's a breakdown of the most popular ones:

🚀 To the Moon is a phrase that denotes a sharp rise in the price of an asset. Example: “ETH to the moon!”

📉 Dump - a sharp drop in price. “The whales did a dump, minus the depo...”

📈 Pump - a sharp rise in price, often artificially orchestrated. “Pump alta, let's fly!”

🐳 Whale - a large holder of crypto, capable of moving the market. “Whales are draining BTC, waiting for drawdown...”

💎 Diamond Hands - investors who don't sell an asset even in case of strong fluctuations. “I have diamond hands, holding BTC until it flies away!”

👐 Paper Hands - those who easily panic and sell an asset at the slightest drawdown. “Paper hands sold off by -5% again.”

💰 HOLD - a strategy to hold crypto for the long term despite fluctuations. “I'm getting into HODL, I don't care about volatility.”

🐻 Bear Market - Bear market, a downward price trend. “In a bear market, it's best to buy long term.”

🐂 Bull Run - bull market, up and positive expectations. “Bull market, everything is going up!”

🔥 DYOR (Do Your Own Research) - “do your own research”, don't invest blindly. “Before you enter a project - DYOR!”
🔅 How Cryptocurrency ACTUALLY Works (Bitcoin, Ethereum, Dogecoin, NFTs – Explained Simply)

What is Cryptocurrency?
It’s digital money that lives on the internet. No banks. No middlemen. Just you and your crypto wallet.

How Does It Work?
Cryptos use blockchain technology – a digital ledger that records every transaction publicly and securely.

Bitcoin (BTC)
The OG of crypto. It's like digital gold. Limited supply (21 million coins) and mainly used as a store of value.

Ethereum (ETH)
More than just money. It powers smart contracts – code that runs apps like DeFi, games, and NFTs on the Ethereum blockchain.

Dogecoin (DOGE)
Started as a meme, but backed by a strong community. It’s a fun, low-cost crypto for micro-transactions and tipping.

What Are NFTs?
Non-Fungible Tokens = digital collectibles. Art, music, even memes – all provably owned via blockchain.

Why It Matters
Crypto gives financial freedom, transparency, and power to the people—not banks or governments.

🔅 What is Staking in Crypto (Definition + Rewards + Risks)

You might be wondering "What is Staking" when it comes to learning about cryptocurrencies. In this video, we will go over what staking is, how to set it up, and the benefits of it.

Proof Of Stake is a blockchain verification method that is much more energy-efficient and less risky than the more common Proof of Work method. Only one miner is chosen as a time to validate the blockchain, but the miner must lock up some of their coins as collateral to be chosen. The miner is punished for creating any fraudulent transactions by losing their collateral, and rewarded for good transactions by the creation of new coins and with the transaction fees the senders paid.
