Tap to Load in 4k - PTGC shocks the crypto market

in LeoFinance16 hours ago (edited)

Being in the crypto space long before steem (Hive) was even a thing puts me in a rare position to be an OG in the space

I have seen it all, from when it was just bitcoin… to the clown world we have now

We always knew back then, when more and more coins were coming out, that there will be bitcoin, probably something else, a few others, then a loooooong tail of nonsense

it was always bitcoin in the number 1 spot

Was always a battle for that number 2 and 3 spot

The top 5 and the top 10 have changed a lot over the years

However ethereum has secured that number 2 spot

The funny thing is, all these market cap comparisons are a bit silly

Market cap is a silly metric

I can go make poopoostinkyface coin and give it a quadrillion tokens then sell it to myself for $1 and have a $1 quadrillion market cap, technically

Bitcoin, for example, has a lot of tokens, for example satoshi’s tokens, that are still used when calculating market cap

If those aren’t circulating why are we measuring it?

Anyways, it will be interesting to see if Ethereum surpasses bitcoin in market and make history but honestly it doesnt matter lol

Hive however, I am impressed to see hive’s price hover around 50 cents after its pump to almost 70 cents

Seems to be doing its own thing

Another coin doing its own thing is PTGC

Some of you might remember I posted about PTGC

Well… here is the daily chart in LOG scale

Now look at the same chart without LOG scale

You might notice that the price is slightly higher in the second picture…

That is because PTGC is on a RUNNNN its just flying up its even higher now that I am typing this

Why you might ask?

Well go find my posts about it when prices were 8x lower but basically the TLDR is:

No inflation

Deflation through buy and burns and burnt LP’ing

Built in buy pressure through leveraging the AMM bots on Pulsechain

This token found a home on Pulsechain, why Pulsechain? Well Pulsechain is a fork of ethereum however their “eth” token for gas is “pls” instead and the # of units were inflated.

So in eth, even if fees are 2 gwei, that 2 gwei costs more the higher ethereum is. If ethereum does a 10x in price, then that 2 gwei can cost quite a bit… and when it spikes to 100 gwei ouff forget about it

With pls you can technically be fine paying $0.0001 in fees for a swap or transfer, but, people are bidding up the price of the transactions to get their orders through quicker

I thought of this the other day when pulsechain was having a spike in activity and fees were even higher than ETH

But thats when it hit me… the fees are based on what someone is willing to pay, and the “base” level fee, or lowest unit of measure has a flower.

For example, a satoshi is 1/100 millionth of a bitcoin. I am pretty sure you cant break a satoshi down into 0.01 satoshis…

So if bitcoin goes to a billion dollars per coin then its $10 per satoshi…

I hope that sort of explains what I meant with “base” fee for all these tokens… there is an absolute floor which is “smallest unit of measure x price of token”

So in pls for example, the fee of $0.01 can technically be dropped to way down there like $0.00000001

Which means if PLS somehow some way does a 10,000x in price, just like ethereum did, then the base fee will still be super low

HOWEVER

Humans dont care

Instead of enjoying a chain where we can pay 0.003 pls for a fee which is basically nothing… people go and spend hundreds even thousands of pls which is still less than a penny or a couple of pennies.. which is relativity cheaper than most chains, but still way more than needed

Hive being free is just so good haha

But anyways so people are bidding up the pls fees which in turn is burning more pls

So its nice to have deflationary moments

Alllllll this yappppppping to say this chain allows for things like AMM bots

Automated Market Maker bots scan the chain looking for imbalanced pools

Sort of like how if bitcoin is 101k on binance but 100.5k on coinbase, technically you can buy it for cheaper on coinbase and sell it for higher on binance keeping the difference

This happens in seconds on the chain since pulsechain has multiple working thick liquidity DEX’s on its chain with multiple aggregators and communities… funny how people call pulsechain a scam meanwhile it has multiple communities and each community is bigger than most other projects lmao

Anyways back to AMM bots… ptgc leverages these bots

How?

Well by pairing PTGC with many tokens on the chain, when one goes up, a ripple effect goes through the whole chain rebalancing everything

And if you remember from my posts about how ptgc works, you will remember that there is a fee to interact with this coin

The bots are aware of the fees and only trigger when there are profitable balancing to be made, regardless of any tax, as long as its profitable its go time

So allllll that volume gets tapped into, and you get an up and to the right chart

Like anything else, people will take profits

However, everything that ptgc is tied to has been going down while ptgc has been going up

Now that pls, plsx hex had a big 30% green day, ptgc has shot up and has accumulated a lot of fees to keep that buy pressure momentum going… its wild

This post is a little ranty… feeling strange today figured I would distract myself with a nice long LEO post

I did not eat the best yesterday and did not get good sleep so the suck has compounded.

Maybe for once I should finally sit down and detach and watch something. everything I plan to watch a movie or something I end up not doing it so maybe today I finally pull the trigger…

There is always something happening somewhere on PulseChain. The low fees are nice, and the communities are strong. Kind of like here where there are no fees except on hive-engine's deposit and withdraw fees.

I think we'll see a connection with PulseChain here someday. I see a lot of talk about cross-chain projects and abilities coming here. Ivan On Tech's Moralis company just added support for PulseChain and that makes it easier for devs to connect with it.

Hive is a full state fork of St**m and PulseChain is a full state fork of Ethereum. We showed here that the fork can outperform the original chain. It could happen with PulseChain too.

Anyway, I hope you find time to enjoy a movie. Have a nice day! :)
