To make the biggest gains in crypto, you need to position yourself in the strongest narratives.

Some of the trends outlined in this thread still have potential to generate 50x opportunities.

🧵: 8 crypto narratives I'm eyeing right now. 👇

 These are the trends that I'm currently trading, or closely monitoring.

I believe all 8 of these narratives have potential to perform strongly.

This list in no particular order.
Remember: When it comes to narrative trading, you're identifying and betting on relative strength.

So although in some cases these projects can perform against broader market movement, most altcoins still adhere to general $BTC price action.
This means if there's a major #Bitcoin rally - the strongest narratives will tend to elicit the best gains.

And in many cases, will also be least affected by price dumps as there's enough demand-side pressure to mitigate sell-offs.

But treat each project on an individual basis.
1. ZK

Ahead of the zkSync and StarkNet token releases, in conjunction with the upcoming Polygon zkEVM launch - ZK-related protocols have been performing strongly.
It's undeniable that ZK is the future of scaling Ethereum.

ZK-rollups help alleviate congestion by 'rolling up' transactions into batches that are executed off-chain.

I did an in-depth thread on my favourite ZK projects a few weeks ago.

2. LSDs

Liquid staking derivatives allow you to earn yield on crypto assets like $ETH, whilst maximising capital efficiency.

This trend is currently being driven by 2 catalysts:

1. The upcoming Shanghai upgrade
2. The SEC's regulatory crackdown on centralised staking
As we approach the Shanghai upgrade, LSDs like $LDO, $FXS and $RPL are gaining momentum.

Shanghai will be a major driver of aggregate $ETH staking, as it will finally allow redemptions of staked ETH from the Beacon chain.
Also on the regulatory front, the SECs inclination to clamp down on centralised staking services (like Kraken) is, in my opinion, a huge catalyst for decentralised staking adoption.

Although I am wary of intervention on this front.

3. Perp DEXs

This has been one of the strongest performing sectors over the last 6 months.

$GMX led the way, followed by competitors such as $GNS, and now newer iterations are coming along, like $VELA.

But, I believe there are still opportunities in this space.
Long term, it's highly likely that other DEX models like AMMs and order-books start to play a more significant role in this space.

But at least in the short-medium term, oracle-based DEXs like $GMX have a distinct UX advantage.
One also can't understate the brand recognition these protocols have been able to generate.

The $GMX and $GNS brand identity will presumably enable them to pivot in the future if need be.

The go-to-market and onboard users quickly approach is something we've seen work well.
I'm always on the lookout for new DEXs, as I believe that this is the single biggest growth vertical in DeFi over the next few years.
4. Real Yield

There has been a monumental and much needed shift in the way DeFi yield models are perceived by both developers and investors.

Through the trials and tribulations of 2021-22, reliance on emissions has decreased in favour of tangible revenue distribution.
Whenever you approach a DeFi investment, ask yourself: Where is the yield coming from?

If the answer is "from protocol fees", then you're on the right path.

But be careful, some projects claim to be "Real Yield" despite employing shady mechanisms to manipulate data.
In many ways, Real Yield could be considered a research perquisite as opposed to a pure "narrative".

I wrote a thread on it last year, which includes more information and project picks.

Since then we've also seen many more quality DeFi projects pivot.

https://t.co/dysPJEAUU2
5. Decentralised stable coins

We've recently seen the SEC crackdown on BUSD, and there continues to be ambiguity surrounding the regulation of other centralised stables like USDC and USDT.

The need for a truly decentralised stablecoin is clear.
There are a few promising players in this space, from $AAVE and their upcoming GHO stable, to $CRV and CRVUSD, $FXS and more.

The protocol that nails the decentralised stablecoin model, and integrates it effectively - will be a big winner.
6. AI

After ChatGPT became the fastest application in history to hit a million users, prompt investments by the likes of Microsoft and Google were made into the AI sector.

This resulted in AI altcoins exploding, as speculation ran rampant.
But, the important thing to recognise here is that AI and crypto is EXTREMELY early, and much of the recent price action is being driven more by speculation than fundamentals.

@avichal explained this in an interview I did with him a couple weeks ago.

https://t.co/L35iBECDnA
This is an extremely news-based narrative. So despite frothiness, it becomes very difficult to short due to the propensity of news to have a short-term positive effect on prices.

https://t.co/XXNO48dp6f
The important thing to note is that strong trends tend to outperform during expansionary periods.

So if #Bitcoin exhibits bullish price action, it's hard to ignore an explosive narrative like AI.

This thread includes nice explanations of 16 AI projects.

https://t.co/7q6QDfHkth
7. GambleFi

The theory behind decentralised gambling is extremely similar to DEXs: People love to gamble, and need places to do so on-chain.

We haven't really seen many quality gambling projects launch yet, but I believe they're coming.
@LouisCooper_ has been doing a great job researching and providing updates on this sector.

https://t.co/MqvmcShfjl
8. Chinese Coins

The following factors have been recent contributors behind many of these coins pumping:

• Chinese monetary stimulus
• Hong Kong crypto legalisation
• Increased Asian open interest
There is a lot of alpha in the Asian Twitter community, and due to the language barrier a lot of it flies under the radar.

Here are some of the top creators to follow (make plenty use of the Twitter translate button).

https://t.co/jBPkQj1jVw
Here's a list of Chinese coins that I'm watching.

Note: This is purely from a trading perspective, and any entries/exits will align with technicals.

The fundamentals on many of these are dubious, and many don't fit my framework for long-term positions.

https://t.co/qHfVu22YXw
I didn't want to focus on EVERY narrative in this thread (as there are many), but if you're interested in learning about more - this is a great thread.

https://t.co/CrOUTmwRjH
I'll be posting updated threads on some of these narratives in the future, as well as covering new ones as I identify them.

Sri Gurubhyo Namah.
Some tweets on Adi Shankaracharya and in particular the Guru Parampara of @sringerimath. [I had done this series earlier 5 years ago on account of Shishya Sweekaram].


Adi Shankara established the Sringeri Peetham as the 1st of 4 amnaaya peetams.

The four being
1. Sarada Peetam at Sringeri.
2. Govardhana Peetam at Puri
3. Kalika at Dwaraka
4. Jyothir at Badarikashramam.

He installed his 4 most prominent shishyas as heads of the peetams.

Sureshwaracharya was assigned to Sringeri as its head.

Sringeri is a corruption of Rshyashrunga giri.

Rshyashrunga maharshi [and his father Sri Vibandhaka Maharshi] did their tapas at this place.

It is at Sringeri that Shankara spent 12 of His precious 32 years!!

That gives you and idea how much He loved this place.

Rshyashruga maharshi had a horn on his forehead, a result of being born to a deer. His mere presence was enough to shower rains!!

Rshyashrunga was one who led Putrakamesthi Yaagam of Dasaratha Maharaj and which resulted in Sri Rama's birth!!

अस्य श्री गायत्री ध्यान श्लोक:
(gAyatri dhyAna shlOka)
• This shloka to meditate personified form of वेदमाता गायत्री was given by Bhagwaan Brahma to Sage yAgnavalkya (याज्ञवल्क्य).

• 14th shloka of गायत्री कवचम् which is taken from वशिष्ठ संहिता, goes as follows..


• मुक्ता-विद्रुम-हेम-नील धवलच्छायैर्मुखस्त्रीक्षणै:।
muktA vidruma hEma nIla dhavalachhAyaiH mukhaistrlkShaNaiH.

• युक्तामिन्दुकला-निबद्धमुकुटां तत्वार्थवर्णात्मिकाम्॥
yuktAmindukalA nibaddha makutAm tatvArtha varNAtmikam.

• गायत्रीं वरदाभयाङ्कुश कशां शुभ्रं कपालं गदाम्।
gAyatrIm vardAbhayANkusha kashAm shubhram kapAlam gadAm.

• शंखं चक्रमथारविन्दयुगलं हस्तैर्वहन्ती भजै॥
shankham chakramathArvinda yugalam hastairvahantIm bhajE.

This shloka describes the form of वेदमाता गायत्री.

• It says, "She has five faces which shine with the colours of a Pearl 'मुक्ता', Coral 'विद्रुम', Gold 'हेम्', Sapphire 'नील्', & a Diamond 'धवलम्'.

• These five faces are symbolic of the five primordial elements called पञ्चमहाभूत:' which makes up the entire existence.

• These are the elements of SPACE, FIRE, WIND, EARTH & WATER.

• All these five faces shine with three eyes 'त्रिक्षणै:'.

#தினம்_ஒரு_திருவாசகம்
தொல்லை இரும்பிறவிச் சூழும் தளை நீக்கி
அல்லல் அறுத்து ஆனந்தம் ஆக்கியதே – எல்லை
மருவா நெறியளிக்கும் வாதவூர் எங்கோன்
திருவாசகம் என்னும் தேன்

பொருள்:
1.எப்போது ஆரம்பித்தது என அறியப்படமுடியாத தொலை காலமாக (தொல்லை)

2. இருந்து வரும் (இரும்)


3.பிறவிப் பயணத்திலே ஆழ்த்துகின்ற (பிறவி சூழும்)

4.அறியாமையாகிய இடரை (தளை)

5.அகற்றி (நீக்கி),

6.அதன் விளைவால் சுகதுக்கமெனும் துயரங்கள் விலக (அல்லல் அறுத்து),

7.முழுநிறைவாய்த் தன்னுளே இறைவனை உணர்த்துவதே (ஆனந்த மாக்கியதே),

8.பிறந்து இறக்கும் காலவெளிகளில் (எல்லை)

9.பிணைக்காமல் (மருவா)

10.காக்கும் மெய்யறிவினைத் தருகின்ற (நெறியளிக்கும்),

11.என் தலைவனான மாணிக்க வாசகரின் (வாதவூரெங்கோன்)

12.திருவாசகம் எனும் தேன் (திருவா சகமென்னுந் தேன்)

முதல்வரி: பிறவி என்பது முன்வினை விதையால் முளைப்பதோர் பெருமரம். அந்த ‘முன்வினை’ எங்கு ஆரம்பித்தது எனச் சொல்ல இயலாது. ஆனால் ‘அறியாமை’ ஒன்றே ஆசைக்கும்,, அச்சத்துக்கும் காரணம் என்பதால், அவையே வினைகளை விளைவிப்பன என்பதால், தொடர்ந்து வரும் பிறவிகளுக்கு, ‘அறியாமையே’ காரணம்

அறியாமைக்கு ஆரம்பம் கிடையாது. நமக்கு ஒரு பொருளைப் பற்றிய அறிவு எப்போதிருந்து இல்லை? அதைச் சொல்ல முடியாது. அதனாலேதான் முதலடியில், ஆரம்பமில்லாத அஞ்ஞானத்தை பிறவிகளுக்குக் காரணமாகச் சொல்லியது. ஆனால் அறியாமை, அறிவின் எழுச்சியால், அப்போதே முடிந்து விடும்.

#bharatmandir

While main deity is Shiva as Kapartheeswarar, the kshetram is famous for Ganesha, known as Swetha/Vellai Vinayagar (white Vinayak)

During samudra manthan, Vasuki snake (used as rope) started spewing venom.


Unable to bear the intense heat, Devas rushed to Siva. He told them that this was because the task was started without getting Ganesha’s approval.
So the Devas created a Ganesha murti from white sea foam and worshipped it.
It was later taken by Indra to Indralok.
@GunduHuDuGa


But once Indra had to come to Earth to pray to Shiva to seek relief from a curse inflicted on him. So he brought the murti of Ganesha with him. When he came here, he wanted to take bath before puja. So he gave the murti to a boy to hold for sometime. The boy was actually Shiva.


He kept the murti down and vanished. Indra could not lift it again and a divine voice told him to let Vinayagar stay there and visit every Ganesh Chaturthi to pray.
Since Vinayagar is made of foam, no abhishekam is done here. Only punugu is applied n camphor powder is sprinkled

Read through a forum thread on Chastity Mansion to see who is talking about the Edge-o-Matic and figure out what more to address regarding frequent questions, as well as scout out user feedback. Here's some thoughts you can carry back to the forums!

My website doesn't have any product reviews, but people scatter them everywhere else in forums, tweets, xtube vids, etc.

If you ARE a previous customer, and you like the thing, can you drop a review on my site to help others?

The price is steep, but that's the amount of coins I calculated to make these. I have several spreadsheets calculating every expense involved with this project.

The current cost sustains production and development of new tech, and is helping create jobs. We are 2 people now!!

It IS 3D printed, because injection molding is orders of magnitude more expensive for the initial tooling, and I am still making small revisions to the enclosures.

Injection molded plastics are a six thousand dollar commitment for fifteen cent parts. Great for mass mfg.

Also, if you didn't know, 3D printing technology allows for some shapes which would be difficult, expensive, or impossible on injection molding or milled parts!!

Undercuts, which I use in this design, require special lifters to mold that cost a tremendous fortune.

I hate when I learn something new (to me) & stunning about the Jeff Epstein network (h/t MoodyKnowsNada.)

Where to begin?

So our new Secretary of State Anthony Blinken's stepfather, Samuel Pisar, was "longtime lawyer and confidant of...Robert Maxwell," Ghislaine Maxwell's Dad.


"Pisar was one of the last people to speak to Maxwell, by phone, probably an hour before the chairman of Mirror Group Newspapers fell off his luxury yacht the Lady Ghislaine on 5 November, 1991." https://t.co/DAEgchNyTP


OK, so that's just a coincidence. Moving on, Anthony Blinken "attended the prestigious Dalton School in New York City"...wait, what? https://t.co/DnE6AvHmJg

Dalton School...Dalton School...rings a

Oh that's right.

The dad of the U.S. Attorney General under both George W. Bush & Donald Trump, William Barr, was headmaster of the Dalton School.

Donald Barr was also quite a


I'm not going to even mention that Blinken's stepdad Sam Pisar's name was in Epstein's "black book."

Lots of names in that book. I mean, for example, Cuomo, Trump, Clinton, Prince Andrew, Bill Cosby, Woody Allen - all in that book, and their reputations are spotless.
