Support for BTC was holding. Trend-line for total market cap did its job. Europe is already online. Asia tooks a little bit of profits but the market is in a good mode. We expect a sideways movement for the next hours or a slight upside. Watch the news: Bad news can trigger sudden dips. Good news for the Altcoins do not cause huge movements at the moment. Sure we had some winners like LUNA, but most coins just follow BTC.
The market cap is still low and we need to see 2,+ (better 2,5) for a good Altcoin market which is stable and reacts to positive news again.

For information for all owners (few, if even no one, own anyway, but it is better to inform too much than too little):

Of course I'll keep you up to date regarding the PoW vote today (at around 2 p.m.), don't worry! Here, however, something that allows the short-term view to be raised again in the long-term direction.

Are you still worried about the future of this industry?

A user draws attention to the incredible development of Cardano's TVL, which has seen a 150-fold increase in 2 months in 2022 alone, Charles Hoskinson replies that many do not yet understand that many Cardano dApps are based on a Vasil hardfork in the Waiting for June to really start and benefit - the TVL would therefore explode into the immeasurable according to him.

TVL is one of the most important factors in the crypto market and roughly speaking tells how much money is lured in the DeFi ecosystem, in the projects and dApps.

One reason for LUNA's massive surge is a very nice TVL, just like Solana and AVAX did last year. Cardano has gone from $1.7 million TVL to $270 million TVL in the past few months and is likely to hit the billion mark this year, if not more. What then happens in terms of price, should Bitcoin play along, would be unimaginable at the moment! (Positive)

Big news and statements from the last few days in a single sentence:

1. Bitmex Co-Founder: "People should stock up on cryptos and bitcoin as soon as possible because the day will come when there will be no more crashes and only rising prices."

2. Mike Novogratz (Billionaire and Galaxy Digital CEO): "If Bitcoin isn't $500,000 in 5 years, I'd be very surprised. The Adoption Cycle has never been wrong."

3. Elon Musk: "Tesla's bank balances in Europe have a negative interest rate...it's quite annoying when you see his bank balance going down in real time...this is crazy...we're definitely turning this into bitcoin."

4. Fun Fact: If Bitcoin were a country, it would be the 37th largest country in the world by Bitcoin holders.

5. Bitcoin searches on Google are currently at a 6-month low - despite very little interest from retailers at the moment, bitcoin price is pretty solid, imagine what happens when the hype starts up again.

6. Ripple will distribute approximately $1 billion in developer grants to encourage development of XRP.

7. Binance is about to be registered in all states in the USA and receive the necessary licenses.

I always find it so extremely interesting to look at very old statements from important people about certain things - here former Google CEO Eric Schmidt talks about Bitcoin and the blockchain architecture itself (in 2013).

He says it is technologically revolutionary and could have incredible value to the world for companies, institutions and the people who do business with it.

At this point, bitcoin was largely seen as "the criminal currency you can use to buy drugs?" stamped and this discussion was about whether the government would ever regulate it (which would mean that bitcoin finally made it and would have been accepted, which it de facto is these days!)

A Ukrainian diplomat tried to leave the country with 140,000 dollars in cash, 68,000 euros in cash, 12 kg of gold bars and 14 kg of gold jewelry, but was immediately discovered and confiscated.

I wonder what would have been the more practical solution here to transfer your assets more easily and worry-free? ^^

Loopring x Gamestop is official like I've always said. It's a pity they're only making it official now, after the crash came, they could have easily fetched 5 dollars in the last bull run. 40% increase currently and let's see where it goes next. It's a strong project even without Gamestop, I'm still holding and not taking any profits yet, it's only a small marginal position anyway. But if you are in the plus and go out, you don't do anything wrong, I myself am currently just in the plus again with it, but so that the whole thing was really worth it, I'm still waiting for areas around 2 dollars. It can also go wrong and not come that way, so choose the best for you! FYI I do NOT intend to keep LRC more than 5 years. Was always just a speculation with the partnership for me and a small bet, which now half worked out, since the collab came true, just too late.
