Part 1.
2021 has been a fast-moving year. So much happened and the space has shifted like crazy in different sectors.

And now we are entering 2022.

So here’s what I felt in 2021 and what I expect in 2022.

Continued in the thread. 👇

1. For 2021, the crypto space changed entirely. And in speed. Not to mention the DEFI season, NFT/Metaverse season, Layer 2 season, and more.

So much hard work, capital, and actual people were absorbed into the system.

2. As more capital and developers flooded into the space we saw a huge expansion of the space.

If you've been here for quite a while, you would know that just in 1 year. Just in a single year, people who didn't talk about blockchain or crypto, started to talk about

3. NFTs, P2E games DEFI, Web3.0 and etc. At least, that's what I felt. The blockchain space has spread like the Facebook, Instagram trend etc.

4. And am happy to see this happening where so-called blockchain 'nerds' are now starting to be considered as 'standard' developers, investors and etc.

5. Apart from this mass adoption, one thing that has changed was its 'speed'. The blockchain space created tens of trends like the DEFI, NFT, Metaverse, WEB3.0, layer2.0 and etc and these trends are moving at the speed of light.

6. One day you wake up and you see all the DEFI-related tech, coins pumping, and the next day you wake up finding that the trend has moved onto NFTs and you start rebalancing your portfolio.

7. At least that's what I saw from most of the investors around me. And this speed is accelerating more and more.

8. This might have been caused by the mass adoption of capital and users, or maybe it was caused by the improving scalability of blockchains making so many things possible now, aiding the tech teams that were working in different sectors to start blooming

9. Anyways, for 2022, what I see is that this speed will accelerate even further. In the past things, so-called 'trends' have lasted at least for a few months or even a year.

10. Well now, the acceleration is done. I expect 2022 to be a crazy year where so many sectors and trends get in turn to lead the crypto space, attracting even more audience.

11. This means that 2022 will be full of opportunities (or maybe risks also) and I expect we will find numbers of millionaires or even billionaires being created in every so-called 'trend-cycle' that will occur this year.

12. As an investor being up to date will be the most crucial thing of all, and adapting to this fast-changing environment will be vital for success.

13. Some will always be late on the bus, and some talented researchers and chartists will always be leading the front enjoying enormous benefits. Expecting this to get more and more severe in 2022.

14. Just for all small tip, if you believe your blockchain sectors to actually be 'the trend' of a particular time would rather hold on to it rather than changing your portfolio every time when people call out for "its ~ season now!"

15. Well if you are the one who's ahead of the curve this wouldn't apply 👍

16. So moving on I would like to talk about some of the sectors I expect to receive spotlights in the 2022 crypto season.

17. a) First of all, for bitcoin, although I really love bitcoin and believe in it. As time moves I believe bitcoin would act more like a "Crypto Index"

Meaning, if you believe in the overall crypto space this would be the safest, most constant return-providing asset.

18. But on the other hand, I do not see it as a 'moving trend'. Meaning I do not see it outperforming the 'trending sector' at any time. But anyways, it would be the best option for people who are trying to build a risk aversion portfolio.

18. b) The Scalability- Sharding and Layer2

Now we hear the word "WEB3.0" every time in Twitter/ crypto space. It's basically the world that crosses through metaverse, NFTs, DEFIs and you name it.

19. Well, what I see is that mass adoption into crypto and WEB3.0 is just impossible to prosper without scalability. Imagine where we have hundreds, thousands or even millions of apps running in the blockchain system. The fact is that the current crypto space just can't handle it

20. Now we have the sharding tech and layer 2 trying its best to overcome this. @ethereum is coming. @Polkadot started its para chain, and @NEARProtocol launched its Nightshade sharding tech.

21. What I see is blockchain without scalability, and I mean "real mass adoption scalability" will find difficulties prospering next year. We have hundreds of apps launching every day, @substrate_io based apps are increasing exponentially.

22. ETH2.0 is expected to have 64 shards. Polkadot Parachain is expected to have maximum 100 shard. Near protocol is expected to have more according to its Nightshade sharding tech. Personally, this kind of blockchains are viewed as the next-gen blockchains.

23. maximum thread reached 🤣will continue on in my next Twitter post.
