It is a good sign to see Tokens built on top of a Layer 1 outperform the Layer 1 Token. If this was not happening, that would mean the investors are treating the Layer 1 Token as sort of a safe heaven. If we look at a common example, we saw memecoins being sold for $SOL $BNB etc. and during bear markets, we see BTC dominance grow with many altcoins being sold for BTC. I do not like this trend. Yet it is an unavoidable reality.

STARPRO is Up 7.07% Against BTC

I honestly believe that BTC is overrated. It is akin to dial up internet. An entirely new age of finance was unleashed on top of the internet and later, we came to see technologically superior innovations in cryptosphere. If the best technology wins, most of traditional finance should have gone extinct now. What we have is an institutional capture of BTC and a slow accumulation phase for the Whales.

Regardless of whatever the emotions people were having, BTC was moving sideways for more than a month now. Large institutions have been buying blue chip cryptocurrency and they will eventually pump their own bags and take profits letting the normies who FOMO become exit liquidity. During the process, $HIVE $RUNE and many other smaller projects end up getting more investments. In fact, many smaller marketcap Tokens end up with better returns than blue chips in a bull market. This is my third bull market. I have learned many lessons the hard way.

Click the link above to check out the wrapped version of STARPRO on Polygon. Making our Tokens more accessible to traders is a good way to get ourselves ready for market peaks where euphoria takes over and all sorts of Tokens pump regardless of the fundamentals behind them. We are not seeing an exclusively BTC centric market. We are seeing a delay in altcoins catching up. This is the first time cryptosphere is experiencing recession like conditions along with political chaos of Military Industrial Complex, communism/tyranny and religious extremism.

User Onboarding Success

Rising Star Does not have E-Mail login, Keystore or other cryptocurrency wallet support. Relying on @keychain simplifies everything for the team. The downside of this is the increased fiction. The positive is that there is a synergy with INLEO that expose potential users to a UI that is similar to X in many ways. As an added perk, there are $LEO Rewards for those who refer users to INLEO. This is how much @khaleelkazi (founder) managed to onboard:

Onboarding + Retention for 2025

Most of the users that sign up will leave the app/DAPP not too long after coming aboard. This is completely natural. One of the best things that we can do to improve retention is to give the users something to do once they are on HIVE. The free transactions make the matter easy from a technical point of view. What we lack is the community to keep things glued together.

Growing few thousand users at a time is not sufficient. Multiplayer games and social media thrive on an active userbase. Once a user become highly involved, it is easy to keep them around. For an example, I have played @risingstargame for nearly 1,500 days now.

Achieved Level 201

In the last time I wrote about the game, I had unlocked Country Tour Missions. The first Mission requires me to be at Level 210. Therefore I am unable to participate in the unlocked area for the next few months. County Tour (not Country Tour) is the Mission I complete the most. It is adding up more Ego and I will have to do more Music Lessons to balance the Ego with some Skill.

The only way we can grow is by adding more users. I have tried what I can to bring more people to blockchain (with most of the focus on gaming and microblogging). I hardly have a social circle. There is very little I can. I try to work on the SEO side with my articles creating backlinks. I post my content to other blockchains and generate backlinks from those front ends. We can all contribute in our own ways. Once we achieve mainstream success, the maintaining that position becomes a lot easier. Growth becomes a more natural part. What we need to do now is to break out of the silo.

Happy Gaming! Happy Investing!
