Hi guys its that time of the market cycle again where the tokens you least expect pull off the most interesting gains for the most bizarre reasons.

The other day it was Solana’s $SOL, I mean, I thought people said Solana was like an adulterated Ethereum that keeps going off and no one uses, but on the 22nd of October, the price of SOL took off from $20 and kept going up all month till $79 on the 3rd of December, making over 3x gains in the space of 2 months, hmmn, so much for a chain that no one uses.

Again yesterday Cardano’s $ADA was up by over 70% from where it was in the past 3 months and we don’t even know why, no major partnerships or integrations, just vibes, or extra causes of ……

…….the other day it was some other shit token, safe to say, it’s just that time of the market cycle where anything can go up and when I say anything I mean anything, but as we all know whatever goes up can also come down, I mean, everything comes down when the bull market is over, but some do so more than the others and some do so to never rise again.

It’s not the pump that matters, but what sustains it, after riding two bull markets, one in full ignorance and the other in semi ignorance, I’ve come to realize that, numbers going up matters, but numbers staying up matters more,

Ofcourse people care less about the latter part, and that’s exactly why many people loose money in crypto. It is very easy to jump ship when numbers are going up, it’s easy to say, “oh ADA is pumping, but they said ADA doesn’t do anything, Solana is pumping, but they said Solana doesn’t work, let me sell my XRP bag, and hop on the Solana train into the moon”.

This way of thinking is right only a few times, but most of the time it’s wrong and ends in hot tears. It’s also very easy to say, “I just want to ride the pump and get out quickly before it dumps”, easy to say, but hard to execute, except you’re lucky, and one can only be so lucky.

Soooo, why am I saying this? Because bull markets can be tricky, and you owe it to yourself to get something out of this one, and because not everyone is a pro trader, or has infinite resources to buy into several crypto and wait, and it’s not everybody who’ll be able to make 100x…..

…….and lastly because the ratio of people who have experience at this to those who don’t is like 1000:3, so someone somewhere def needs to read this.

So this post is focused on succeeding in a bull market, how to excel without a 100x or without investing a fortune, it’s simple, by investing in working systems. It's about finding those gems that have real staying power – the ones that are building the future of the crypto space, addressing shortcomings and solidifying the crypto narrative one block at a time.

InLeo

Take InLeo, for instance. The Premium subscription model of InLeo is a classic example of a sustainable system. The subscription fees are split to buy Leo and Hive tokens, which are then locked, effectively reducing their circulation and potentially increasing their value over time.

This mechanism benefits the entire ecosystem, ensuring long-term sustainability. It's not just a quick pump; it's about creating a robust system where the community thrives, content creators are rewarded, and token values are stabilized by actual utility and demand.

THORChain

Similarly, THORChain presents another sustainable approach in the crypto market. With features like savers accounts, lending without the fear of liquidation, and streaming swaps, THORChain goes beyond mere token trading.

It's solving real problems in the DeFi space, offering users safe and innovative ways to interact with their assets. These features ensure user retention and continuous growth, making THORChain a strong contender in the long-term crypto play.

Hive

And then there's Hive, which stands out for its ability to sustain and nurture projects within its ecosystem. A perfect example is Splinterlands, a game built on Hive that has grown exponentially.

Hive's model of decentralized governance and content incentivization provides a fertile ground for projects like Splinterlands and InLeo to thrive. It's not just about Hive's token price; it's about the value it adds to the projects and users on its platform, proving its worth as a sustainable ecosystem.

These platforms – InLeo, THORChain, and Hive – demonstrate that success in crypto isn't just about riding the bull market waves. It's about investing in systems that offer real solutions, have solid foundations, and focus on long-term growth and community engagement. They prove that the real winners in the crypto space are those who build and support sustainable ecosystems.
