Decentralized Systems

The reason being crypto is already mature enough and there is significantly more engineering efforts and money power backing it which can prove to come stronger and faster as real competitive production ready decentralised systems as compared to whatever centralised systems come up with in coming years.
In these terms we are still too early in crypto and that's why it's only a survival game for projects to not die off without liquidity and keep holding value in bear market and then start recovery back when rest of the markets starts recovering back
if that doesn't happen, either at the same level as others or to very small levels, that too means those cryptos will not be worth while to hold long term.
I think just. a single bear market can show which cryptos are worth holding, and we will be much clear on that viewpoint by the end of this bear market, which is expected to be very long one.
Like previously we have seen, while we are in bear market, the time will be to keep an eye on potential good projects which may take lead in next bull market.
I just don't start investing right away and I just keep learning about what's happening around, and analysing.
We sure ought to find next gems in bear market but it's hard to tell which altcoins will be the long term winners in this bear market.
