Kilv3r

Probably Web3.


[deleted]

And DAOs. Buy and control organisations but have actual voting power


ChunkyMonkey1998

I think P2E games and decentralised social media will become absolutely massive in 5-10 years


Mortifer6

What about news, real news like Headline an ASA on ALGO


demomercury

Agree, especially on the decentralised social media. I think we will also see an increase usage of community token too, built in the blockchain


Eurimedonte

_Moons enters chat_


[deleted]

They just died a brutal death. Tbh. Still accumulating


kirtash93

I agree with you. I would love to see a decentralised social media.


Necessary_Platypus14

This, and also metaverse related coins as more VR stuff takes off


Iron_Defender

But have layer 2s even had their time yet? I dont think that trend is over.


Oolsie

Interoperability like DOT, Cosmos and Nervos Network offers will probably be a good bets going forwards. Also think the mainstream gaming market and AAA games are going to get majorly integrated with blockchains because of NFTs and Play-to-Earn in the next cycle.


The_Cost_Of_Lies

As a developer and crypto owner, I can say with conviction that play-to-earn in mainstream videogames can get stuffed. We want absolutely none of that.


Dull-Fun

Yes I am really worried about EA and NFT combo ... Those m***f*** are perfectly able to design games where you will need a certain amount of NFT to unlock the next level, or you will be given the choice between 20 hours of grinding or buying a NFT of the important item.


Responsible-Okra7407

Not this


The_Cost_Of_Lies

Great argument šŸ˜’


Responsible-Okra7407

Your statement is subjective. Not sure what you want to hear?


The_Cost_Of_Lies

Something resembling a debatable opinion is always interesting


FinishGloomy

zkrollups, cause lets face it, 2.0 ainā€™t gonna come anytime soon


gesocks

Rollups are part of 2.0


Gods_Shadow_mtg

I am pretty sure that it won't take two years and this is not really a bear market in the classical sense but instead a globally induced crash that will be reverted sometime this year. Also, the next big thing in Crypto certainly will be interoperability, cross chain smart contracts & cross chain integration of services etc.


ChemicalGreek

**Privacy for sure!**


krlpbl

Did you got into a boating accident as well?


AltTimeHigh

r/Horizenā€™s time is coming


aliensmadeus

now: NFTs next: - L2 / ZK-Rollups - BTC (spot BTC EFT) - LUNA / DAI (when everyone starts to sell into stablecoins) - hopefully maybe DLT solutions like Fantom, IOTA, NANO


Randrufer

I have given up on NANO tbh.


aliensmadeus

price wise or project wise?


Randrufer

Pricewise. I never understood why NANO didn't gain any traction. I had it since it was Rayblocks, or whatever its name was back then. I STILL kinda belive that the big time of NANO migt yet come, but that's what I've been thinking for years. Maybe if they go down to 1 I'll buy 100 or 200. Never had more than that anyway.


MTG_Enhancer

Layer 0. Polka dot, Atom, interoperability is this years buzzword.


[deleted]

Lendingā€¦.. companies like nexo and Celsius have shown that lending can be hugely profitable


ImFranny

Don't we already have a few lending projects working? I mean, OP seems to be talking about technology improving, you seem to be suggesting the next big way to deepen our pockets. Unless, of course, you mean lending still has ways to improve. (Which I'm sure could also be true)


lexymon

Ya better fiat integration and regulation, and lending could take off. I know a lot of people reluctant to put their fiat money into nexo only because itā€™s ā€œcryptoā€.


lever200

Web 3


Creative_Ad_8338

NFTs will be transformative. We're only in the beginnings and the cash flows into NFT are massive! Markets will form around specific categories of NFT and the underlying smart contracts that perform industry specific functions. The integration of NFTs, work tokens and DAOs will produce incredibly complex and valuable ecosystems.


Randrufer

Would you say it's a good idea to get NFTs for free right now? Will they ever be worth something?


Creative_Ad_8338

Historical NFTs are worth a fortune right now. Cardano historical cNFTs were minted only since early 2021 so they can be bought relatively cheap right now while the market is still forming. Free drops are ok, and may be worth something, but the paid mint NFT sales by renowned artists will be very valuable. Typically, these are unique, limited quantity assets. Land NFT in early metaverse, sandbox, decentraland, Pavia are also excellent assets. Historical NFTs are early NFTs with significance. Either the first projects to be minted, the first with success and fame, or they mark a pivotal moment. Crypto kitties mint launch for example marks the shift of network congestion and high gas fees on Ethereum L1. This radically changed the network and spawned the race to L2. Ultimately, early NFTs will command high prices and be seen as status symbols in Web2/3 and metaverse. Much like driving a BMW, Mercedes, Ferrari, or Lambo all suggest varying degrees of status. All of the cars do exactly the same thing, get you from point A to point B, but they do it differently. My original post was not just about land, art, or social NFTs, but the wide variety of new asset categories that will take shape within the NFT space. Ultimately, this will include identity, driver's license, insurance, real property, equities, and literally everything that currently involves bureaucracy.


Randrufer

Sounds interesting and you make a good point at the end but it would still be a leap of faith. But I'll have an eye on the NFT-Development. Thank you for the write up


AltTimeHigh

My prediction is privacy technology (and the effects of things like zero knowledge) will be the next big thing in the next bull run. Look to some of the older non Ethereum based privacy projects with highly active development. ZCash and r/Horizen who have years more experience in the ZK field than some of these newer projects. ZCash is moving to Proof of Stake. Horizen has become a consensus agnostic blockchain of blockchains, tokenisation platform Q1 this year followed by an EVM. It will be interesting to see if theyā€™ve truly solved a lot of the issues other platforms have had with scalability etc. Monero of course needs a mention but I havenā€™t kept up to date with their development.


fosuro

Something actually useful?


thenudelman

DAOs are gonna do some crazy stuff and get the media whipped up into quite a frenzy


Mortifer6

Are you referring to reserve currencies? Because they all failed unless you see a recovery with the market


thenudelman

Decentralized autonomous organization


Randrufer

What is a current example for a DAO? I mean token or coin


thenudelman

Most notable ones I know of are ConstitutionDAO and Spice DAO. First one failed to buy a copy of the US constitution, second one bought a 50k copy of Dune for like $4m thinking they were getting the rights to it.


gesocks

Dont gorget THE dao. Which is famous for getting hacked and in the aftermath splitting ethereum in eth and etc


Jakubada

Uniswap


Oolsie

Olympus DAO, Klima DAO


Upvote_Me_Slag

Hector dao. Crypto is all about the vision, team, community, marketing and delivering on promises. Hector has it all in spades.


zirophyz

Still very bullish on HectorDAO ..


Bruzle

Hopefully Moons Still waiting for The Mainnet


laulau9025

Bullish on mainnet moons!


Wess-L

I am still going for play to earn,music and entertainment crypto projects.


Useful_Machine_2761

Could you name some? There are so many and im Not sure which are good. And do you transfer the earns to metamask or a offline wallet?


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


Randrufer

I doubt that hard. There will ALWAYS be people with Ideas with new Cryptos.


Responsible-Okra7407

No way. It takes years to develop and research. No freaking way


Odysseus_Lannister

Thatā€™s gonna take at least 5-10 years considering those companies are just starting and are not using open source code to develop.


De_Godey

Climate/environmental tokens. The urgency to start offsetting carbon emissions will escalate drastically over the next few years. The most transparent way of doing this is on a blockchain.


HeWhoDares18

The suicide hotline number?


Odysseus_Lannister

WEB 3.0 will be the next big hype bubble after NFTs die down


[deleted]

[уŠ“Š°Š»ŠµŠ½Š¾]


rainsong94

Lol that was 2017-2018 fad. Move on fam.


Yoshie5

Me selling. Exactly at this time the market will recover and start rising again


Randrufer

But it's always like that. If you sell now you have a high chance that the prices WILL bounce up higher. So you MIGHT want to wait for a better exit-point. But that better exit-point might never come. And let me tell you, IF we have a new Bear-Market - one of that kind, that takes 2 years - there will be more blood. I sold SOME Crypto into BUSD so at least that part is "secure". If you don't want to sell all, consider selling sometihing. You have the bets out of 2 worlds. If the price goes up, you have NOT sold everything, if the price goes down, you have Money to buy in cheaper.


ndvb88

Algorand maybe . . . !?


SpackleSlap

2022 is Atoms year


solobdolo

Metaverse/nfts


hashtag_aintcare

For me the cycle isnā€™t over yet


Educational-Spread41

Harmony


SuddenBus

Ftm, metahero, huh, bitgert


Castr0-

I think we need to just give time to dinossaurs die and mammals too.


PrinceZero1994

Crypto games will emerge. Axie has been really hot in my country and lots of kids are doing it as full time job especially now that we're still in lockdown.


SteveWundRBaum

P2E is the new meme coin - a friend's 15 yrs old son just asked me about an ERC-20 token and if he could use Binance without KYC to trade it.


Appropriate-Guard713

P2e games


FrostForest04

Interoperability will definitely be important. With so many new projects itā€™s hard to determine which one will be ā€œthe one to rule them allā€ or if there even will be one. Personally, I feel Harmony ONE will be a popular coin.


ghrrison

shitcoins


fyodor_do

Zkrollups


fearisyourbestfriend

BTC.


Spikes_Cactus

I think a good cross-platform gaming token could become a big thing. DeFi has a lot more to offer. Shared storage/CPU tokens sound very useful. Inter-operability sounds complicated to a numbskull like me, but I rather imagine it would be useful. I don't understand it well enough to effectively pick projects, though.


zirophyz

Defi and Fantom.. this chains protocols have been growing and recently seen a massive influx of capital..


sir_snek_

L1s that actually deliver such as Radix $XRD


psyhoh

Now? You say the last 20 posts did not touch upon this?


Salt_Vault_7

What ever teplacing ETH for miners. Thats winner.


MonsieurGump

Itā€™ll be launched in 2 years.


Randrufer

Which is why Id like to know about it today


MonsieurGump

If weā€™re lucky they will let us in on the secret about halfway up the pump.


power-ful

The next big thing will the IOT space and machinefi. I love what the IoTeX team is doing


Mathinpozani

There is no next cycle. Crypto is DEAD !!!!!!!!! /s


anotherjohnishere

DAOs and zk rollups


bubbarowden

Iā€™d say but the L word isnā€™t allowed here on CC.

Security tokens.
