Back when I had a few hundred followers I shared $UOS @ultra_io. It was in the middle of the #metaverse and #playtoearn hype and wow did it pump.
But not many gaming projects from 2021 survived or kept building. Well, $UOS did... 🧵👇
1/14
I took profit on UOS in 2021/2022, we were all up big so cashing out when the market flipped bearish made sense. My plan was to see how the team perform in the bear market and buy back in then.
Well, they've performed, and I am starting to accumulate again. Here is why 👇

🟪 WTF Is Ultra? 🟪
Ultra is a version of Steam using blockchain tech, unlike Steam, it doesn't take a 30% cut of sales, it only takes 15% 👀 This obviously incentivises developers to put their game on Ultra, and push for sales there, instead of on Steam!
3/14
But it's not just for devs that benefit. As a user, your games are NFTs and you can sell them when you are done playing them. You get a cut and so does the dev! This has never been done before 👀
And, they are also making their own games 👇
4/14
🟪 AAA Game 🟪
Over the past three years, Ultra has been building AAA FPS in collab with devs from games like Diablo, Fortnite, Cyberpunk, Hearthstone, Doom, and more.
5/14
I have mixed feelings about crypto games. They do well in a bull market but the hype never lasts long. But two things here, this game actually looks really good and Ultra is more than just a game. Here are some screenshots from the game!
6/14
🟪 Ultra Arena 🟪
This is their eSports app where players earn crypto for playing in game tournaments. There is a ridiculous amount of money in eSports so this is a great selling point.
7/14
🟪 Onboarding Gamers 🟪
My biggest problem with crypto gaming is that NOBODY outside of crypto wants to create a Metamask wallet to buy or play games. Creating wallets is intimidating, adding chains to Metamask is confusing... it just puts people off.
8/14
With Ultra, you can play Web 2 games just like you would on Steam, making money from the Ultra Arena or selling your games is a seamless experience that doesn't require users to get Metamask and learn how crypto works. This is key to onboarding Web 2 gamers!
9/14
🟪 Blockchain + Publisher + Distributor + Dev 🟪
The other issue I have with investing in crypto gaming is that most games have a short shelf life. 95% of games lose most of their player base in the first year, especially crypto games.
10/14
But Ultra is not just a game, it is a gaming blockchain, a publisher and also a developer.
This is what we should be looking for when investing in crypto gaming. We want to invest in the crypto Ubisoft (dev), Valve/Steam (dev, publisher, and distributor).
11/14
These are the companies that become worth billions and are around for decades.

🟪 Gameplan 🟪
I'm starting to accumulate $UOS again at these lows. IMO this is a good time to start building alt bags and Ultra is one of my key gaming plays 💪
As always, the market looks good now but it might not look so good in a few months. I am accumulating slowly!
Let's dive into my ultimate guide, with my personal $ALT picks 🚀 and tailored portfolio strategies for investors at $1k, $5k, and $10k+
LFG 🧵 👇
This is not financial advice; I'm sharing how I structure my portfolio. Remember, investing carries risks (especially investing in banks 🤣). For personalised financial advice, please consult a qualified financial advisor. 👍

This pre-bull market portfolio will transform as we enter the bull market. In bear markets, we take less risk and save some allocation for unreleased cryptos because they pump hardest when flip bullish. Let's dive in 👇
Mini-thread on $PRIMAL and why I'm stocking up again a little here and on more dips to 0.0035. Primal is still around 2x from our original entry with loads of room to the upside, but why?
Full disclosure: I got in as an early investor through the DAO Maker launchpad at 0.0016, which I shared and I bought more in December when it was at 0.0035 which I also shared. If you've been following along we are up big and banked some profits 💪
◆◆ AI ◆◆
Primal is hitting the AI narrative. The co-founder worked in AI before moving in to crypto so he knows the game. They are creating the first AI sports engine called Apex, think ChatGPT but for fitness.
Here's my latest list of unreleased #crypto projects that could 10x-200x next bull run 🚀 Some might even pull a $SOL or $MATIC and 500x 👀
Most of these are new projects I've not shared before. Broken down by sector 👇
1/18
◆◆ Read This First ◆◆
New projects pump the hardest BUT they're also riskier than established projects like ETH. I picked these because I would (or have) invest money in them, but my biggest holdings are still lower risk assets like BTC and ETH 👍

◆◆ Gaming ◆◆ @Degen_Zoo - This one launches in a few days on DAO Maker. Full disclosure, I'm an early investor. The community is huge, the tokenomics are great and I think this one pumps. I'm in the presale through DAO Makers launchpad.
$NEAR - They have over $500 mill in their treasury, most of it in fiat so they have money. They are focussed on onboarding businesses which is what we need for mass adoption. A lot of perp DEXs are starting to build on near like SpinFi, Orderly and Veax which I cover below
2/13
$PYR - They're expanding their team, building in the bear and most of their income is in fiat. They started as a gaming studio but are now a full fledged gaming L1 🚀
Bull market or bear market, if you can pick strong narratives you can make ridiculous returns in #crypto. In 2022 narratives like MoveToEarn and Perp DEXs printed money. In 2023 I'm eyeing new narratives, here's what they are and how I find them 🧵👇
1 of 35
My investment thesis is based on game theory and a version of value investing heavily modified for crypto. Game theory is about analysing the actions and desires of all the players in a game, in this case the crypto market, in order to predict what they will do next.

The first step - of many - is to tap into the market's mind. Once you understand their motivations, desires and perceived best interests you can make predicti future market trends. So, how do we tap into the market's mind? First, we need to understand it 👇
The five most important factors when looking at #crypto projects. Ranked from 1-5. The rankings will surprise you 👀 👇

◆◆ Your Opinion Is Irrelevant ◆◆
This thread will probably make me seem a little jaded, but I don't think I am. I love crypto, I love everything about this industry. Nothing else in the last few decades has come close to creating as many millionaires as crypto.
2/26
But let's face it, crypto is a hype-driven casino. You can make life-changing money if you recognise what's important. Most investors will find a project they love and invest in it because of the team or tech.
