💥 Solana, TON, Polkadot !!! - what's up with it?


Hello, Vlad's back. We've got to agree, the market has been boring... are we in a bull or what?

Anyway, here's some stuff from the market:

  • 💥 Polkadot. Solana. TON: What’s happening?
  • ⚠️ Fear and Greed Index - it's down
  • ✨ Crypto Influencer Marketing Guide

💥 Polkadot. Solana. TON: What’s happening?

Let’s take it from Ugly, to Bad, and then Good…

Ugly: Polkadot spent $86m on advertising in Q1 with zero effect.

Yes, $86m is HUGE of a budget to just throw away with nothing to show for it

Crypto Twitter is going crazy on this…

and the memes are even crazier… just search for “polkadot” on Twitter to see for yourself 😂

P.s. DOT team, next time you spend 10M in Ads, setup tracking first and definitely try Blockchain-Ads!

Bad (maybe): Solana launches “Blinks” that no one wants… yet

"Blinks" will allow people to order pizza or buy NFTs on everyday apps like X using blockchain links.

But the question is: Do people really want to buy NFTs on X?

The good: TON—the secret of the next 100bn Blockchain?

TON (Telegram’s blockchain) is the ONLY project succeeding with seamless web2/web3 integration and could potentially onboard the next 1 billion

… the secret to this success include:

  1. mini-apps and crypto gamification… think NotCoin tap zombies crypto Telegram miners
  2. they OWN the platform.

The results?

  • Daily Active Wallets = 1,403% ⬆️
  • DeFi TVL = 1,298% ⬆️
  • Daily Transactions = 372% ⬆️

Bottom line: In crypto, it's not always about flashy tech, it's about understanding your users and giving them what they actually want. TON seems to have cracked the code. Will Solana and Polkadot catch up?


⚠️ Fear and Greed Index - its down bad

The crypto market's been in a bit of a slump lately, with Bitcoin dropping 5% and the Fear & Greed Index hitting an 18-month low.

As you can see, the needle is pointing towards "Fear" with a capital F.

But hold up! Before you start hoarding toilet paper and canned goods, let's unpack what's really going on.

Why the Dip? A Few Theories...

  • Miners have been dumping Bitcoin faster than you can say "hash rate." This post-halving sell-off has seen miner reserves hit a 14-year low.
  • German government unloaded $195M of seized Bitcoin last week. They've still got plenty more to sell, so keep an eye on this.
  • Mt. Gox is back in the news, and rumors of early Bitcoin payouts have spooked the market.

Conclusion: While things look grim right now, remember that this is just one chapter in a much bigger story. Macro trends could be setting the stage for a major crypto rebound. And if history is any indicator, this bull run is just getting started.
