In conventional markets, investors purchase and keep assets in anticipation that their value will increase over time.

It is challenging to forecast an asset’s future worth in the cryptocurrency market because a number of variables can impact its price. What cryptocurrency should you keep and what should you sell, then?

To assist you in choosing wisely, we are contrasting TerraClassic (LUNC), USDD, and Snowfall Protocol (SNW).

A Decentralized Currency Protocol: USDD

The TRON DAO Reserve has released USDD, a cryptocurrency that has steady price but minimal applications. An integrated incentive structure and a flexible monetary policy helps enable the USDD to self-stabilize in the face of price swings, and strengthen its position as a genuine settlement currency.

According to Justin Sun, the USDD stablecoin will be one of the most decentralized stablecoins. USDD will be made available on TRON, Ethereum, and the Binance Smart Chain. TRON combined all of its resources to build the USDD stablecoin.

The USDD algorithmic stablecoin works similar to Terra’s UST. Users have the option to redeem one USDD for one U.S. dollar if the stablecoin falls below the aforementioned peg ratio. One US dollar can be exchanged for one USDD if the stablecoin’s price rises over the $1 set value.

In the past week, Tron has added 1.75 million addresses while TRX has recovered some of its losses. In the first half of November, TRON (TRX) suffered significantly as a result of the collapse of FTX, an exchange that was once regarded as the third largest in the world.

From its price of $0.064 on November 6, TRX plummeted to $0.046 on November 14. Though the cryptocurrency managed to stage a rebound and recover its losses, it is still trading below its all-time high. Thus, Tron’s Plan is to Make USDD the “Foundational Currency” of the Digital Economy.

The price of the USDD is $0.976984 at the time of writing, down 0.08% from the prior day.

The value of TerraClassic (LUNC) declines significantly

Since its first release, the value of TerraClassic token (LUNC) has largely decreased. TerraClassic (LUNC) has seen a 100% negative year-over-year price movement, which suggests that the company has a dismal long-term outlook.” In May of this year, the TerraClassic network, whose native token is LUNC, crashed, wiping out over $60 billion in market value”. Thus, when the project’s algorithmic stablecoin lost its peg to the dollar and TerraClassic (LUNC), the token that was meant to be its stabilizer, went into hyperinflation.

TerraClassic (LUNC) has experienced adverse recent trading action, with a loss of 6.38% over the previous 30 days. Prior to May, the value of the TerraClassic (LUNC) token was $116.13; it is now only worth $0.000246. What the future holds for the TerraClassic (LUNC) project is currently unknown. Anyone considering investing in the TerraClassic (LUNC) coin runs a great risk due to the significant value loss for investors.

Snowfall Protocol (SNW) is most likely to grow

Snowfall Protocol (SNW) is the first ecosystem created for fungible and non-fungible token cross-chain transfers. The goal of Snowfall Protocol (SNW) is to lower the many technological obstacles to entry and give users the opportunity to earn from any blockchain project of their choice by utilizing the platform’s top tools. Users of the decentralized Snowfall Protocol (SNW) application can exchange assets across chains that are both compatible and incompatible with EVM.

Snowfall Protocol’s (SNW) cost has already increased by more than 300%. The optimum moment to buy Snowfall Protocol (SNW) is now because its price of $0.095 is significantly below market value. By the time it is launched, the scale of Snowfall Protocol (SNW) may have increased by a factor of 5000, according to experts. The value of Snowfall Protocol (SNW) could one day soar to become 1000 times larger than what it is currently worth, according to top market analysts.

Cryptocurrencies have seen a stellar year as their prices continue to surge, despite events like the recent FTX crash. The blockchain-based assets have garnered traction over the past few years as more investors realized their potential for income generation. Plus, as these assets aren’t regulated by a third-party financial institution like a bank or a brokerage firm, investors don’t have to worry about regulatory restrictions.

If you are new to the world of cryptocurrencies and are confused about how to choose cryptocurrencies for investment, you can always start with research. Just select some of the leading names like Big Eyes Coin (BIG), Avalanche (AVAX), and Monero (XMR), weigh their pros and cons, and then make an informed decision. To help get started, let’s dive into the key features of these three cryptocurrencies.

Big Eyes Coin: Helping more investors access DeFi tools

Big Eyes Coin is a meme coin that has been designed with the express goal of encouraging more investors to switch to decentralized finance for wealth generation. With the platform, the team aims to make DeFi protocols more understandable and accessible for investors.

The meme coin is based on the story of a cat with big eyes and how he found his life’s purpose by travelling around the world. The platform has also rolled out a native token called BIG which is the primary cryptocurrency on the network. With a total supply of 200,000,000,000 units, the token can be used for transactional purposes like staking, liquidity management, voting, and funding marketing activities, among others. The BIG Token is available on presale for interested users; around 70% of the token supply was set aside for public presale.

Of the remaining token supply, 20% of the tokens will be sold via private sale. Lastly, the rest of the token supply will be utilized for funding marketing activities (5%) and Big Eyes’ charitable donations (5%). Moreover, no taxes will be levied on the sale or purchase of these tokens. The platform will also be rolling out an NFT series and will conduct regular events to facilitate their sale. Users should know that all NFT-related transactions would be subject to a 10% tax. The tax proceeds would be divided into different categories – 4% among original NFT sellers, 5% among BIG token holders, and 1% for charitable donations. Moreover, the platform has a policy of incentivizing participation, hence, it will be awarding NFTs and BIG Tokens as rewards to its users for their engagement. Users will be able to track all charitable donations made by the platform via the charity wallet.

Avalanche launches DeFi rewards programme

Avalanche is a smart contracts platform for deploying and scaling Ethereum-friendly dApps. Apart from building dApps, developers can also create customized blockchains and virtual machines for their requirements. Its key offerings include its premier scaling solution subnets which can support a robust ecosystem of app-specific and scalable blockchains. Its native token is called AVAX and it can be used for staking and other similar transactional purposes. In a recent development, Avalanche announced the launch of its DeFi rewards programme ‘Avalanche Rush’ for trading platform GMX. GMX will receive AVAX Tokens worth $4 million to fund growth incentives. The grant is a part of the Avalanche Rush Incentive programme – an initiative for developing Avalanche’s DeFi ecosystem.

Monero launches online campaign donation tracker

Monero is a decentralized cryptocurrency that focuses on keeping the users’ financial details secure. It uses next-generation technologies like Ring signatures, RingCT, and Stealth Address to safeguard users’ details. At Monero, every user is anonymous and each transaction is private, which makes it impossible for these details to be traced. Its native token is XMR which comes in handy while dealing with transactional purposes like staking and payments. In a recent development, the network launched its open-source crowdfunding website to raise funds for its Magic Monero Fund. The website serves as a tracker for donations made towards the campaign and accepts Bitcoin and the XMR Token as donations. Users also have the option of using their credit or debit cards for donations.

While these three cryptocurrencies have left their mark on investors, for cryptocurrency analysts Big Eyes is the number one crypto asset that has their attention. Of the analysts who have reviewed it, many have claimed that it will be outperforming the other two cryptocurrencies because of its higher growth potential and efforts to bolster the DeFi ecosystem.

As criticism continues to trail the decision of the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN) to limit the amount of money that can be withdrawn over the bank counter and on ATMs to N100,000 per week for individuals and N500,000 for corporations, human rights lawyer, Femi Falana, has weighed in on the issue.

The Senior Advocate of Nigeria (SAN) said the new withdrawal policy contradicts the law and therefore is illegal.

On December 6, the CBN announced the new policy, which also allows only N20,000 withdrawal from POS per day, as part of its broader monetary policy – directing financial institutions to start the implementation from Jan. 9, 2023.

The new policy was announced on the heels of the redesign of N200, N500 and N1,000 notes that the apex bank rescheduled their circulation to take effect from November 23.

Both moves by the central bank have elicited both commendation and condemnation. While a section of Nigerians applaud the new CBN initiatives as possible means to curb insecurity and inflation, others, including Falana have said that the new withdrawal limit contravenes the law.

In a statement on Monday, Falana described the policy as “illegal and null” as it contravenes provisions of section 2 of the money laundering Act, 2022. He argued that section 2 of the Act, limits cash withdrawals by individuals and corporate entities to N5 million and N10 million, respectively.

According to him, the new CBN policy is “null and void” as long as section 2 of the money laundering Act is not amended to accommodate it.

“Since the money laundering act, 2022 (which has fixed maximum cash withdrawal to N5 million) has not been amended, the limitation of cash withdrawal of not more than N20,000 per day and N100,000 per week fixed by the Central Bank of Nigeria is illegal, null and void in every material,” Falana said.

“We urge the Nigerian people to ignore the illegal announcement.

“However, we are compelled to call on President Muhammadu Buhari to direct the management of the CBN to withdraw the illegal guideline and stop announcing more policies that are designed to sentence poor citizens to more excruciating economic hardship,” he added.

Meanwhile, the CBN governor Godwin Emefiele had said he has the backing of Buhari to implement the controversial policies.

Last week, the House of Representatives summoned the governor as concern grows that the new withdrawal limit may create economic headwinds for Small and Medium Enterprises (SMEs) in the country, particularly those in the rural areas.

However, Emefiele assured that the central bank has put adequate amenities in place to ensure that the concerns are addressed.
