The Undying Legend of Crypto: A Review of 15 Veteran Altcoins – Which Have the Potential for a Explosive Price Surge?

In the chaotic world of cryptocurrency, there are always legends about established altcoins.

They are like old knights forgotten in the corners of the martial arts world—silently drinking wine, not fighting or grabbing, but once they make a move, it is astonishing.

In this issue, we'll take a look at the history of classic altcoins:

• Why were they so popular back then?
• Is he still alive?
• Why didn't he die?
• Is there still a chance for a surge in prices in the future?

With the market feeling quite chilly, why not brew a pot of old wine and listen to a piece about the old days of martial arts?

If you're a seasoned veteran of the crypto world, having experienced multiple cycles and purchased more than half of the coins mentioned in this article—remember to share this article with newcomers and remind them to wear an extra layer of protection.

It's really cold at the top of the mountain. But experienced travelers know:

Even the longest winter cannot stop the return of spring.

Chapter 1: The Big Brothers of PaymentPay

XRP: The most litigious veteran in the blockchain industry

• Background of Establishment

Founded in 2012, it's older than Ethereum. It was created by Jed McCaleb (an early Bitcoin OG) and the Ripple Labs team.

The initial intention was very clear:

It's not about creating "cryptocurrency-related coins," but rather a "cross-border clearing network for banks." The ambition is to replace SWIFT, reducing the speed of traditional cross-border remittances from days to seconds.

As a result, it quickly secured partnerships with banks, financial institutions, and large payment companies, and in 2017-2018, it surged into the top 3 globally by market capitalization, second only to BTC and ETH. Indeed, XRP's predecessor truly worked alongside bankers back in the day.

Unexpectedly, in 2020, the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) struck with a heavy blow: You are a securities firm, and I will penalize you.

Ripple: ?

XRP: ?

investor:????

After years of back-and-forth, XRP has become the most legally savvy coin in the entire crypto world. It has the strength, the technology, and the banking partnerships; all it lacks is the right mindset and regulatory easing. Ripple announced the end of its appeal in its lawsuit with the SEC in March 2025, and officially closed it on August 7th, confirming that XRP is not a security on the secondary market. The final fine was adjusted to $50 million for Ripple (a refund of $75 million from the original $125 million).

• Technology and Features

The consensus mechanism used is the Ripple Protocol Consensus Algorithm (RPCA).

Transaction speed is incredibly fast: 3–5 seconds.

Low transaction fees + no mining required + primarily targets financial institutions and banks

• Future surge point

XRP ETF Approval Wave

Global bank cross-border payments adopt

The RLUSD stablecoin ecosystem is booming.

XRP is a typical example of a project that "takes off again once regulations are relaxed." After winning the lawsuit, obtaining ETF approval, and finalizing bank cooperation—these three moves could transform XRP from a "suppressed giant" into a "liberated beast."

If one day global financial institutions suddenly want to "accelerate cross-border settlements," XRP could very likely be put on hold again.

LTC: The least troublesome "silver brother" in the Bitcoin family.

• Background of Establishment

Bitcoin too expensive and too slow? Then use the lightweight version – LTC (Litecoin) .

Created in 2011 by former Google engineer Charlie Lee, it is a lightweight version of Bitcoin.

LTC is a native fork of BTC, designed to make payments faster and transactions cheaper. Upon release, it was considered the silver of Bitcoin (because BTC = Gold) and was listed on all major exchanges in its early stages. Furthermore, during each bull market, LTC suddenly experiences a surge in popularity, reminding everyone that it's still around.

The biggest point of contention is that the founder sold off at the peak: Yes, founder Charlie Lee sold all of his LTC holdings at the height of the 2017 bull market. The reason given was: "To avoid conflicts of interest."

investor:???

market:????

Price of coin: ? ? ? ? ?

Since then, LTC has entered a "low-key operating mode" for several years. The latest news is that in 2025, Canary Capital announced the launch of the Canary Litecoin ETF (Nasdaq: LTCC), the first spot Litecoin ETF approved for trading by the SEC. In addition, LitVM launched the first zero-knowledge Layer-2 network, built using Polygon CDK, supporting EVM-compatible smart contracts and cross-chain interoperability with Bitcoin, Cardano, and Dogecoin.

• Technical features

The consensus mechanism is Scrypt PoW.

Bitcoin's block time is 1/4 (2.5 minutes).

Focusing on stable, fast, and small-amount payments

• Future surge point

The narratives of payments and privacy continue to gain momentum.

As a "veteran stablecoin," it was driven by capital during the BTC ecosystem resurgence.

Market sentiment drives

LTC belongs to the "old soldiers never die, they're just waiting for the right opportunity" type. It won't experience a 10x surge like a new public chain, but it also won't go to zero like a worthless coin.

Chapter Two: The Reputable School of Smart Contracts – “Also Wanting to Challenge Senior Ethereum…”

ADA: A blockchain prodigy with an academic background

• Background of Establishment

Cardano (ADA) was founded in 2015 by Charles Hoskinson , one of the co-founders of Ethereum, and officially launched in 2017.

The ambition is clear:

1. The goal is not to launch quickly and grab market share, but to create the "most rigorous and scientific" blockchain.
2. Each upgrade involves: paper → peer review → formal verification.
3. This gave ADA the early reputation of being the "most rigorous blockchain system".

With its founders being early members of the Ethereum team, ADA started with a "reputable" label, attracting a large number of academics and institutional investors. The latest news is that its quarterly report announced a partnership with Brazil's PUC-Rio to establish Ada Labs, focusing on blockchain economics, DeFi, and renewable energy solutions.

Biggest flaw:

The market has limited patience for "paper-writing" (i.e., writing theoretical reports). The ecosystem of dApps has been consistently weak, leading investors to jokingly say of ADA: "Its strongest point is its roadmap, not its ecosystem."

• Technology and Features

It uses the Ouroboros PoS consensus mechanism (the first peer-reviewed PoS algorithm).

Layered architecture : Settlement Layer (CSL) + Computation Layer (CCL), functional separation enhances flexibility.

Plutus smart contract language : based on Haskell, supports formal verification.

Focusing on security, scalability, and sustainability

• Future surge point

On-chain governance truly implemented

Major applications (finance/gaming/social) launched

African countries are adopting its underlying technologies (projects are already underway).

ADA's explosive growth is more like a "slow-burning revival." The good news is that the ecosystem has indeed been growing slowly over the past two years.

However, challenging Ethereum's position is still as difficult as "becoming an academician immediately after graduating with a doctorate".

DOT: The Elegant Architect of the Cross-Chain Concept

• Background of Establishment

Polkadot (DOT) was founded in 2016 by Gavin Wood , former CTO of Ethereum and founder of Parity Technologies, and its mainnet officially launched on May 26, 2020. With parachains , shared security , and slot auctions , its cross-chain model is arguably the most complete in the industry, directly competing with Cosmos and becoming one of the "two giants" in cross-chain technology. In the latest PolkaWorld English livestream, Polkadot was officially announced to have been included in the Hong Kong government's "Strategic Enterprises" program (managed by the Hong Kong Financial Secretary's OASES scheme), making it one of the few projects in the blockchain ecosystem to receive such official recognition. The livestream also mentioned institutional investment entering the ecosystem, such as HIC (Harbor Industrial Capital) investing in Polkadot ecosystem projects.

Why didn't he achieve godhood along the way?

The architecture is beautiful, but complex. It is difficult to develop, costly to build new chains, and the ecosystem is expanding more slowly than expected.

• Technology and Features

Relay Chain + Parallel Chain Architecture : The relay chain is responsible for security, and the parallel chains are responsible for execution.

Shared security mechanism : All parachains share the security of the relay chain, eliminating the need for separate validator maintenance.

XCM Cross-Chain Messaging Protocol : Supports seamless communication between chains.

Slot auction mechanism : Projects bid for parachain slots by locking DOT.

• Future surge point

Cross-chain demand truly explodes

More parachains launched

Star applications emerge in the ecosystem

DOT belongs to "infrastructure-level value" and will not disappear. Once the cross-chain narrative returns, it still has the potential to take off.

NEAR: High-performance sharding chain, the king of developer experience.

• Background of Establishment

NEAR Protocol was founded in 2018 by former Google engineers Illia Polosukhin and Alexander Skidanov , and its mainnet launched in April 2020. Its initial goal was very clear : to create a "high-performance public blockchain that developers love to use." Various builders generally describe it as "comfortable," a rare quality in the public blockchain industry.

Why hasn't it dominated the market? Because every blockchain now claims to be fast, cheap, and offer a good user experience. The competition is too fierce, weakening NEAR's advantages. It's still very strong, just less prominent. The latest news is that OceanPal, in partnership with the NEAR Foundation, announced a $120 million PIPE investment to launch SovereignAI, using NEAR to build a blockchain-native confidential AI cloud infrastructure, combined with NVIDIA technology, to support proxy businesses.

• Technology and Features

Nightshade sharding technology : dynamic sharding, supporting unlimited expansion.

Rainbow Bridge : Seamless cross-chain connectivity with Ethereum

Human-readable usernames : No need to remember a long address, just use a username like alice.near

Developer-friendly : Supports Rust and AssemblyScript, with a complete toolchain.

• Future surge point

Large-scale social/AI application deployment

Strong ecosystem user growth

Deeply integrated with popular narratives ( AI/Web3 games )

NEAR is a "low-key but powerful player," and once AI + Web3 narratives truly take off, it will be in the top tier.

ICP: The most ambitious public blockchain dreaming of "rebuilding the internet on-chain".

• Background of Establishment

Internet Computer (ICP) was founded by the Swiss DFINITY Foundation , with founder Dominic Williams being a distributed systems expert. The project was launched in 2016, and the mainnet officially went live in May 2021.

ICP's dream is outrageous: it doesn't want to be just a chain, but a blockchain alternative to the entire internet .

This means enabling everyone to use on-chain versions of YouTube, TikTok, and cloud services . The vision is grand, even somewhat science fiction-like—directly targeting AWS and Google Cloud, aiming to move the entire Web 2.0 onto the blockchain.

The biggest problem: the token unlocking structure was unfriendly at launch, and the price plummeted from its peak to single digits at "reverse speed" .

• Technology and Features

ChainKey technology enables smart contracts to interact directly with external systems without the need for oracles.

Canister architecture : similar to smart contracts, but with more powerful features.

Network Nervous System (NNS) : Fully On-Chain Governance

Unlimited scalability : Supports large-scale dApps running directly on the blockchain.

• Future surge point

Large-scale on-chain applications emerge

Internet service migration trend emerges

Adding cross-chain capabilities (progress already underway)

If one day it actually produces an "Instagram on the blockchain," then it can happily return to the top ten. ICP belongs to the type of company that "has big dreams, but its technology is indeed amazing."

ATOM: The father of cross-chain ecosystems, but Ontology is the most "laid-back".

• Background of Establishment

Cosmos (ATOM) was founded by Jae Kwon and Ethan Buchman in 2016 and launched its mainnet in 2019.

Why did it become so popular back then? Because the Cosmos architecture ( IBC + SDK ) allowed countless projects to easily create their own public blockchains.

Many of today's strongest blockchains— Osmosis, dYdX (new version), the Celestia ecosystem —all bear the imprint of Cosmos. It doesn't just offer a public blockchain, but rather "a complete toolkit for building blockchains."

Biggest problem: ATOM's own value capture is weak.

The Cosmos ecosystem is very strong, but the ATOM token itself often underperforms compared to other subchains. Some jokingly call it: "The father of the ecosystem, but the poorest."

The current situation in 2025 is characterized by a surge in staking and stable annual interest rates: According to institutional analysis reports , despite market volatility, ATOM staking has increased by 15.7%, reaching a record high of 274.04 million ATOM. Cosmos staking annual interest rates have remained stable at 16.34%, driven by proposal #996, which would pass 98% of inflation to stakers.

• Technology and Features

IBC Protocol : A cross-chain communication standard that has become an industry benchmark.

Cosmos SDK : Enables developers to quickly build their own blockchains

Tendermint Consensus : A High-Performance BFT Consensus Mechanism

Application chain pattern : Each application can have its own chain.

• Future surge point

ATOM economic model upgrade (already underway by 2025)

Larger adoption of IBC

Ecosystem Explosion

ATOM belongs to the type of stock where "value may be delayed but will not be absent" —the stronger the ecosystem, the more ATOM will eventually catch up. ATOM belongs to the type of stock where "value may be delayed but will not be absent".

Chapter 3: The Three Giants of Decentralized Finance – “The Most Profitable People on the Blockchain”

AAVE: On-Chain Bank, Flash Loan Magician

• Background of Establishment

Founded in 2017 by Finnish entrepreneur Stani Kulechov (originally named ETHLend), Aave officially changed its name to Aave and launched version V1 in 2020. It was the first project to bring "flash loans" into the public eye—a kind of on-chain magic that allows you to borrow money with zero collateral and automatically repay it after the transaction is completed .

Sounds like a "coupon-grabbing magic tool"? Yes, but it's actually:

1. Arbitrage tools
2. liquidation tools
3. The core infrastructure of DeFi Lego

At the same time, it is the leader in DeFi lending , with the largest asset size and the most recognized security. During the DeFi boom (2020-2021), Aave directly became synonymous with "on-chain bank".

• Technology and Features

Flash Loans : Unsecured loans that must be borrowed and repaid within a single transaction.

Multi-chain deployment : ETH, Polygon, Avalanche, Base, Arbitrum, etc.

GHO Stablecoin : Aave's native overcollateralized stablecoin

Market isolation model : V3 introduced to reduce the risk of transmission.

• Future surge point

DeFi Market Recovery

Multi-chain lending market expands

New asset type launched ( RWA Real-World Assets )

Aave is one of the most stable "cash flow protocols" in the entire crypto market—as long as DeFi lives, Aave is a money-printing machine.

UNI: The Founder of AMM, the Eternal King of DEX

• Background of Establishment

Uniswap was founded by Hayden Adams in 2018 and launched its V1 version on the Ethereum mainnet in November 2018. It defines the AMM (Automated Market Maker) model , allowing anyone to instantly create trading pairs on-chain.

Before Uniswap, on-chain transactions required order books and centralized matching.

The emergence of Uniswap directly rewrote the rules:

1. No license required
2. Anyone can provide liquidity
3. Any token can be listed

The emergence of Uniswap marked the beginning of the entire DeFi era ; without Uniswap, there would have been no DeFi summer. On January 31, 2025, Uniswap officially announced the launch of Uniswap v4 . This was a major upgrade, hailed as a "new era for DeFi." v4 introduced greater customizability and lower costs. The new architecture introduced "hooks contracts," allowing developers to customize pools, fees, LP behavior, and more, greatly enhancing the protocol's flexibility.

• Technology and Features

AMM Model : x * y = k constant product formula, ushering in a new era of DEX.

No license required : Anyone can create trading pairs

V3 Centralized Liquidity : Allows LPs to provide liquidity within a specific price range, improving capital efficiency.

V4 Hooks : Launched in 2025, allowing developers to customize AMM logic.

The "fatal flaw" of the UNI token: UNI is primarily a governance token and does not receive protocol dividends, so the price fluctuations of UNI are unrelated to protocol revenue. This makes it seem "uninteresting" most of the time.

• Future surge point

Reform of the Agreement Revenue Model

Open regulatory environment

DEX trading volume hits record high

If UNI ever starts buying back shares/distributing dividends, it will be absolutely phenomenal.

MKR: Guardian of the Stablecoin DAI

• Background of Establishment

MakerDAO (now renamed Sky Protocol ) was founded by Rune Christensen in 2014 and officially launched the DAI stablecoin and MKR governance token in December 2017.

DAI is the largest decentralized stablecoin on the blockchain , while MKR is the token responsible for governance and risk control . MakerDAO was at its peak during the 2020–2021 DeFi boom and is the cornerstone of the entire DeFi ecosystem—almost all DeFi protocols require DAI as a stablecoin layer.

Its biggest highlight is that it is a truly decentralized stablecoin, unlike USDT/USDC which are backed by centralized institutions.

• Technology and Features

Overcollateralized stablecoins : Users collateralize assets such as ETH to generate DAI.

MKR Governance : Holders vote to determine key parameters such as collateral ratio and stability fee.

RWA (Real-World Assets) : MakerDAO was the first protocol to bring real-world assets such as government bonds onto the blockchain.

Sky Rebranding : In 2024, it was renamed Sky, and MKR was changed to SKY.

The current problem:

MakerDAO has a complex risk structure, even managing real-world assets such as government bonds. This increased complexity makes MKR more volatile.

• Future surge point

RWA (Real-World Assets) Ignites On-Chain Finance

Large-scale demand for stablecoins is rising

MakerDAO organizational restructuring

As long as the demand for stablecoins remains strong, MKR will remain a super core asset . It is the "central bank" of DeFi, and its position is unshakeable.

Chapter 4: The Three Phantom Gods of Memes – “Logic? It doesn’t exist.”

DOGE: The king of canines, Elon Musk's favorite toy.

• Background of Establishment

Dogecoin was created in December 2013 by Billy Markus and Jackson Palmer , initially as a satire of the speculative frenzy surrounding cryptocurrencies.

Its story is simple and straightforward:

1. There's a dog 🐕
2. There's a community 💪
3. With Elon Musk 🚶
4. That's enough.

DOGE doesn't rely on technology at all; it relies on internet culture, community power, and Elon Musk's superpower . From a joke to a top-ten cryptocurrency by market capitalization, DOGE's very existence is the biggest irony of "value investing"—but it does have value because consensus is value . In November 2024, Donald Trump announced the creation of a new government agency called the "Department of Government Efficiency" ( DOGE ), led by Elon Musk. This political-brand combination is not just a gimmick; it also reinforces DOGE's status as a "meme coin" and a symbol of power.

• Technology and Features

Based on Litecoin code , using the Scrypt algorithm

Unlimited supply : 5 billion new coins added annually (inflation design)

Fast transaction speed and low fees

Focusing on small-amount payments and tipping culture

• Future surge point

Musk posts a tweet, or even just a picture of a dog... and DOGE goes up.

The logic behind meme coins remains valid: Internet culture + consensus = value.

Technological upgrades offer long-term potential: If ZKP, Libdogecoin, and other similar projects are successfully implemented, DOGE may combine community popularity with on-chain capabilities in the future. This is not just a joke; it could also be infrastructure.

SHIB: From meme to "hard-working individual"

• Background of Establishment

Shiba Inu (SHIB) was created in August 2020 by the anonymous founder Ryoshi , who calls himself the " Dogecoin killer ." It's considered the "younger brother" of DOGE , but boasts a more active community. More importantly—unlike traditional meme coins that merely dabble in innovation, it attempts to do: ShibaSwap (DEX), Shib The Metaverse , NFTs, and games.

• Technology and Features

Based on Ethereum ERC-20

Shibarium : Your Own Layer-2 Solution

The three-token ecosystem consists of SHIB (main token), LEASH (liquidity), and BONE (governance).

Burning mechanism : Continuously reducing supply to combat inflation.

• Future surge point

The ecosystem has truly taken root (Shibarium, Metaverse)

The meme craze is back again.

SHIB is a hybrid player that "needs both meme traffic and actual products"—if the Shibarium ecosystem really takes off, it will be more than just a meme.

PEPE / FLOKI: Sentiment + Memes = Market Value

• Background of Establishment

PEPE : Launched in April 2023, based on the classic internet meme " Pepe the Frog ." This coin is essentially a product of a pure MEME revolution, similar to Dogecoin and Shiba Inu. The project has not been officially claimed by the team to have a long-term business plan or technical support; instead, it emphasizes "no taxes, no pre-sale, and no team token distribution." After listing on Binance, it officially became one of the "Big Three" mainstream MEME coins (DOGE, SHIB, PEPE).

FLOKI : In June 2021, Elon Musk tweeted, "I'm going to name my Shiba Inu Floki," and the Floki Inu token subsequently appeared and quickly became a hit. Like DOGE and SHIB, it initially relied on the "Musk effect" and meme-based spread. However, FLOKI is one of the few projects in the meme space that actively developed a real-world application ecosystem.

The initial intentions of both coins were very simple:

1. Community
2. mood
3. Topic
4. High-frequency trading

PEPE is a typical example of culture + emotion; FLOKI, on the other hand, is beginning to combine community culture + practical application + compliant investment value .

• Technology and Features

Pure meme, no practical use

Relying on social media for dissemination

High volatility, high speculation

FLOKI:

(1) Valhalla Metaverse Game

1. A blockchain-based play-to-earn game where FLOKI serves as the in-game currency.

(2) FlokiFi DeFi Ecosystem

1. FlokiFi Locker: A crypto asset locking protocol that the team claims has been used by multi-chain projects (locking millions of dollars in TVL).
2. Future plans include FlokiFi Bank and lending services.

(3) The educational platform “Floki University”

1. A learning platform for Web3 users, offering courses from beginner to advanced levels.

• Future surge point

It boils down to two words:

Emotions. Meme resurgence.

If you can accept that "value comes from culture and emotion," then Pepe Coin is your playground.

If you insist that "meme investing should also consider fundamentals," then FLOKI is worth paying attention to, because it's starting to develop practical value 😂

Chapter 5: Storage Heroes – “We're not the hottest, but we're the most essential.”

FIL: A Millennial Project in Decentralized Storage

• Background of Establishment

Filecoin was proposed by Juan Benet, founder of Protocol Labs , in 2014. In 2017, it raised $257 million through an ICO (the largest ICO in history at the time), and its mainnet officially launched in October 2020. Filecoin was the first project to truly turn "decentralized storage" into an industry.

This project isn't just storytelling; it actually lets people save files .

• Comparable to centralized storage systems such as AWS S3 and Google Cloud
• Turning idle hard drives around the world into a distributed cloud storage network
• From technology to business model, it all belongs to long-termism.

Filecoin's vision is to rebuild the storage layer of the internet —to store data permanently, securely, and decentralizedly on the blockchain.

• Biggest highlight:

It is the incentive layer of IPFS (InterPlanetary File System), the underlying protocol for Web3 storage. Filecoin provides economic incentives for this protocol.

Why is the price so volatile? Because its economic model and storage mining mechanism are complex. Miners sell a lot of coins , putting pressure on the price. Miners need to stake FIL to mine, but after mining, they need to sell the coins to realize cash, creating selling pressure.

• Technology and Features

Proof of Spacetime : Proving that data was indeed stored for a period of time.

Proof of Replication : Proves that the data has been actually copied to physical storage.

FVM (Filecoin Virtual Machine) : Supports smart contracts, making Filecoin more than just storage.

Storage + Retrieval Market : A dual-market mechanism that incentivizes miners to provide services.

• Future surge point

Web3 adopts decentralized storage on a large scale

The demand for AI data is growing (training data, model storage).

Decentralization trend in the global storage market

FIL is an infrastructure type ; as long as encryption doesn't disappear, it will always have a place. It's like building a road—not sexy, but someone has to do it.

Investor: When will FIL rise?

FIL: Oh, we'll have to wait until Web3 really explodes.

Market: When will that be...?

FIL: I said it, a project spanning a millennium .

Chapter Six: Hidden Champions of On-Chain Infrastructure

15. LINK: A giant in the oracle world

• Background of Establishment

Founded in 2017 by Sergey Nazarov and Steve Ellis , Chainlink raised $32 million through an ICO in September 2017 and launched its mainnet later that year. At SmartCon 2025 (Chainlink's own developer conference), Chainlink officially launched the Chainlink Runtime Environment (CRE) . This is an "orchestration layer" for institutions, enabling the construction of end-to-end smart contracts, connecting external data, cross-chain functionality, and meeting compliance and privacy requirements.

The importance of Chainlink: Without oracles, there is no DeFi. Without LINK, there are no oracles. Its position in the entire on-chain ecosystem is equivalent to: "the weather forecast station of the blockchain + the data highway."

• Why is it so important?

Because blockchain is a closed system , it cannot directly obtain external data (such as ETH price, weather, sports results).

Oracles act as a bridge between on-chain and off-chain systems .

DeFi protocols need price data → LINK provides it.

Insurance agreements require flight delay data → LINK provides

The game requires random numbers → LINK provides them.

• Technology and Features

Decentralized oracle networks : Multiple nodes provide data, preventing single point of tampering.

CCIP (Cross-Chain Interoperability Protocol) : Cross-chain communication protocol

Chainlink Staking : A staking mechanism to enhance network security.

Price Feeds : Providing real-time price data for DeFi

VRF (Verifiable Random Function) : Verifiable random numbers used in games, NFTs, etc.

• Why hasn't there been a significant price increase in so long?

Because everyone is only focused on the "new narrative," but the entire industry uses LINK every day —just like you use water and electricity every day, but you don't think about the stock of the water and electricity company every day.

• Future surge point

RWA asset integration (currently booming)

Off-chain data connections explode

Institutions are adopting on-chain finance extensively.

LINK belongs to the type that "works quietly and surges at crucial moments" —it's not a celebrity, but it's the "water, electricity, and gas" of the entire crypto world.

Conclusion: The Hero's Ambush

So, what will the market look like next?

A hero doesn't concern himself with short-term gains or losses; he lays out his plans and lies in the shadows, all for that one moment when the storm is about to break.
