Guilty Pleasure Altcoins - Which are yours?Hi Traders, Investors and Speculators of Charts📈📉
I'm constantly on the lookout for projects with great potential. Microcaps often x10, x100 or even x1000 if you're lucky enough to catch them early AND take profits. However, today's post is something a little different.
Let's talk guilty-pleasure coins and let's get real. Have you ever invested (or are currently invested) in a coin that is considered a "bad investment" by the community? If so, which coins and why did you decide to go for it regardless ?
I'll go first... XRP 💰 I am still a hardcore believer in the fundamentals, even though I can't deny the evergrowing negative consensus and overwhelming bad rep that XRP gets from other analysts (often rightfully so). I've been a bag holder for many years, and my main reason is just sentimentality 😂
Now, VRAUSDT: The reason for using VRA/ Verasity for the cover is because I genuinely am undecided about this one. I'm not a big fan of coins who's decimals I can barely read so seeing a massive liquidity drain even before this microcap reached 0,09 isn't the best help for confidence in the project. However, the fundamentals seemed promising at the time.
Incase you missed it:
Verasity is a platform that aims to revolutionize the way that online video is viewed and monetized. It does this through a number of features including Proof of View (PoV), Engagement Rewards, VeraWallet, and VeraViews. PoV is a technology that uses blockchain to verify that users are actually watching videos, as opposed to simply clicking on them and then leaving. This helps to ensure that advertisers are only paying for genuine views.
Engagement Rewards rewards users with VRA tokens for watching videos, engaging with ads, and participating in other activities on the Verasity platform. This helps to create a more engaged and interactive viewing experience. VeraWallet is a secure wallet that allows users to store their VRA tokens and participate in the Verasity ecosystem. VeraViews is a decentralized video sharing platform that uses the Verasity platform to verify views and reward users.
All the above said, the fundamentals sounded great upon release. But obviously, something went wrong and I'll say this about it: The one thing I hate more than advertisements, is being forced to watch an ad. I've seen this new trend when I use apps on my phone that have ads. Suddenly, an annoying ad pops up. When trying to click the "X" or "Close" or "Skip" button, instead of actually taking me back to what I was doing (like very intensely playing solitaire) the click actually takes me to the site!
Could it be that the reason for the project not taking off so well is more people like me just find it annoying and related scenarios? Especially if your reward for watching a 30sec ad is worth 0,004c...
And so the question begs: Scam, guilty pleasure coin or worth-the-wait?
