Waves (WAVES) – Where will it go next?

There have been several factors that have pushed Waves in recent weeks. More so however is the increased total value locked or TVL in some of the ecosystem projects. For example, The Neutrino Protocol, an innovative DeFi tool kit built on the Waves network has seen its TVL rise by nearly 350% in the last month alone. 

There was also an announcement that Waves was planning to launch Waves 2.0, a much improved and efficient network. The announcement was made on February 11, and while the coin has had volatility since then, its overall trend has been upward. 

Waves is looking at adding EVM compatibility with Waves 2.0, something that will bring cross-chain interoperability into the platform. The coin is expected to continue seeing this decent uptick in the near term. It could surge above the $3.3 billion market cap quite substantially.

Is it time to buy Waves (WAVES)

Waves (WAVES) has been doing very well to enhance the appeal of its ecosystem towards developers. It is also allowing a lot of innovative DeFi products to come to its protocol. The future is indeed bright, and it is likely we are going to see superb long-term value. As a result, it would make a lot of sense to buy the coin.

Play-to-earn games have been quite popular in the blockchain in the last 12 months. There is no doubt this is a unique trend, and we expect games to become more integrated into the metaverse in the future. After all, the metaverse brings in new possibilities for blockchain gaming, and here is how:

• The metaverse will help create a gaming economy in digital ecosystems.

• The integration of AR and VR in gaming will be possible with the metaverse.

• The Metaverse is likely to change interactions between gamers forever.

Well, for investors who are looking for undervalued gaming coins that are fully integrated with the metaverse, we have three options below to consider:

Star Atlas (ATLAS)

While everyone else has been talking about Axie and Sandbox, Star Atlas (ATLAS) has been quietly building up its terrestrial game and bringing in a lot of active monthly users. The game is set in a virtual terrestrial world where players build spaceships to fight for the control of space.

It offers one of the most incredible immersive gaming experiences thanks to its strong virtual reality. ATLAS is the in-game currency within the Star Atlas universe. It is also the governance token for the platform, and it is a great investment for people looking for metaverse gaming.

Alien Worlds (TLM)

Still, in the world of terrestrial dominance and outer space, Alien Worlds (TLM) is another metaverse gaming token that offers augmented and virtual reality as well. The good thing about this token is that it also integrates some aspects of DeFi. There is also a fully integrated NFT marketplace.

MetaBlaze (MBLZ)

MetaBlaze (MBLZ) is a relatively newer metaverse token that is hoping to create increased metaverse utility in both gaming and entertainment. The coin so far appears to have a decent list of backers and investors. It is something you should keep an eye on.

• Oasis Network has an ongoing Hackathon that has drawn a lot of investor and developer interest into the project. 

• Oasis aims to become a leader in the private smart contracts space, the next growth phase in DeFi. 

• Oasis is making higher lows, indicating that bulls are firmly in control. 

Oasis Network ROSE/USD is currently one of the top-performing cryptocurrencies in the past week. While it has eased up today due to a correction in the broader market, it is still one of those cryptos whose chart points to a potential continuation of the bull trend that had started earlier in the week.

Oasis Network’s current price action has a lot to do with the Oasis Bloom Hackathon that kicked off on March 10th. The Hackathon will run until May 2nd and comes with a reward of $200k. This has drawn a lot of interest in Oasis and is likely to keep driving interest in this project over the next couple of weeks.

Besides this short-term price action, Oasis has the fundamentals that could see it rally once the markets turn bullish again. That’s because it is operating in an aspect of the crypto market that has all the hallmarks of potential growth going into the future.

Oasis is looking to become a market leader in the private smart contracts markets. With DeFi disrupting traditional finance, it is only logical that privacy will be essential in the next wave of growth. It will give industry players the confidence to move even higher amounts of money, especially when it comes to lending and the issuance of under-collateralized loans.

For many beginners who are jumping into crypto for the first time, they will be a lot of coins in mind. But in most cases, the focus will be on the bigger established cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin or Ethereum. There is nothing wrong with buying these mega-caps, but it’s also very easy to avoid other important coins. Here is why:

• Most beginner crypto investors don’t typically have enough knowledge of crypto.

• Finding hidden gems in the crypto market is never easy.

• Beginners are typically very risk-averse in nature.

Despite this, it is important to know some of the coins surprisingly avoided by beginner investors. Here is the list.

Monero (XMR)

Monero (XMR) is actually one coin that has been trading in the crypto market for years. In fact, it would be strange to consider Bitcoin and not consider Monero in there too. Also, the coin has received a lot of media coverage over the years, and chances are you may have come across it.

But beginners will not take the chance on Monero simply because they don’t understand how this privacy token works. But this is a mistake since XMR still has so much potential under its belt.

USD Coin (USDC)

Not every person buying crypto wants to 10x their money. There are also a lot of folks who want to buy crypto as a store of wealth. There are of course many coins that offer that in fact, many beginners would go for the heavy hitters like BTC. But if you don’t want any risk, USD Coin (USDC) would be the ideal option.

Yearn Finance (YFI)

Outside Bitcoin, Yearn Finance (YFI) is one of the most expensive tokens in terms of price per coin. It may therefore seem like it is priced out. But when you look at the market cap, it’s actually very low. It’s therefore easy to ignore the coin, thinking it’s overpriced while it’s actually not.
