1) I continue my portfolio threads with my 3rd biggest holding which is $CHNG (Chainge Finance).
This is the first of several plays of mine betting on the narrative of "Decentralized (Perpetual) Exchanges"
2) With the meltdown of FTX it became very obvious that centralized exchanges pose quite some risk for every crypto investor.
The risk of getting rubbed by your funds can get mitigated by using decentralized exchanges where you own your keys for the crypto you store there.
3) Now this is where $CHNG comes in the game.
First and foremost Chainge Finance is a mobile app which lets you:
- spot buy crypto
- store your crypto (with your own keys)
- swap chains (cross chain hopping)
- (leverage) trade your crypto
- get APY for your crypto
4) There are several features that make $CHNG stand out (USPs):
Interoperability:
It is a novum that you can easily chainge the chain your token is running on with minimal fees and instant swap.
5) Minimal fees:
By connecting more and more dexes Chainge you are able to spot buy and trade with minimal fees and deep liquidity!
$CHNG will compare costs across different dexes and select the one with the minimal fees to buy your crypto
FIAT On/ Offramp will also come soon
6) Value Proposition
What most people don't understand is that who ever owns the customer interface owns the market.
Examples for this are AirBnB, Uber, etc.
These companies don't have assets but they own the customer interface and are thus growing at a fast pace.
7) Thus the fundamental value of Chainge will increase with every other dex they connect and with every other token they list as this will reduce fees for clients and add more variety in coins.
This will let customers ofChainge grow and thus value of $CHNG grows.(See tokenomics)
9) Tech
Tech tech base layer of $CHNG is quite capable as well, it's the L1 solution called "Fusion" ($FSN): decentralized, fast and secure.
$CHNG enjoyed a 100% fair launch, no ICO, VC, etc.
Team has no token allocation at all.
Fair launched projects have the advantage that there is less sell pressure after price increases as there aren't single entities with high % share of token supply.
12) Tokenomics
Max supply: 814M
Burned- already: 250M (Quarterly burns using 25% of the company profit)
Total supply: 564M
Circulating supply: 337M
The burn mechanism makes sure that the token value increases along with users on the Chainge platform
13) Chainge earns based on fees for buying/trading on the platform. The more people use the platform the higher the profit and the higher the token burn will be, making $CHNG more scarce and increase in price.
14) Narratives
Ironically $CHNG hits quite all narratives that might become relevant the next months/years (credit @wauwda):
1) I continue with my portfolio explanation with my 2nd largest holding which is $QNT.
$QNT is my high cap play and one of the deepest rabbit holes you can fall in to. I try to keep it short :)
2) $QNT itself is a token (ERC-20 token) and is not intersting at all by itself. But when investing in $QNT you invest in the company Quant and its flaghsip product "Overledger".
The overledger is an interoperability solution that is able to connect any network to any network,
3) This is huge as the overledger thus does not only connected blockchains with each other but also networks outside the blockchain world with the blockchain.
There are very many use cases requesting this, such as:
1) From today on I will start giving you some reasoning on how I built my portfolio. I will give you some insights in why I think that these coins are good choices for a potential next crypto bullrun.
I'm starting with the biggest position today: $KAS
2) $KAS is my biggest position. This project got me from the very first moment I stumbled across it.
- L1 to annihilate the crypto trilemma without any sharding or L2 solutions
- Fair launch with no ICO, presale, primine whatever and fair token distribution
3) To me $KAS is the FIRST L1 that really solved the crpto trilemma.
Being first is always a huge thing, this is why I thinkn that $KAS is such a disruption that it is the third big crypto movement after $BTC and $ETH.
