INTRODUCTION

Cryptocurrencies our digital money have shaken things up in the finance world. In this week's contest from this amazing community, we are asked to talk about what the future holds for these cool currencies which include our fancy Bitcoin to other blockchain technologies.


Which cryptocurrencies under $ 1 can have the best performance in 2024? Choose a cryptocurrency by its fundamental analysis. Would you recommend buying this cryptocurrency?

With the rate at which cryptocurrencies are growing exceptionally and the continuous emergence of new cryptocurrencies every day, I will say there are over 100s of thousands of currencies, with over thousands trading below the $1 mark with more still being introduced to the crypto market.

However, since I am expected to pick out a few, I will be picking out a few that I believe will have a stellar performance this year. This list includes the following:

CryptocurrencyCurrent Market value
Ripple (XRP)~ $0.6355
Cardano (ADA)~ $0.6156
IOTA (MIOTA)~ $0.2988
Basic Attention Token (BAT)~ $0.2715
STEEM~ $0.2667
The Stellar (XLM)~ $0.1304
NEM (XEM)~ $0.04071
VeChain (VET)~ $0.03552
Zilliqa (ZIL)~ $0.02568
Holo (HOT)~ $0.00248
All price data were obtained from CoinMarketCap
Choose a cryptocurrency by its fundamental analysis.

Based on the fundamental analysis of the coins mentioned above, I would like to single out Cardano (ADA).

ADA (Cardano):

Is a blockchain platform that aims to provide a secure and scalable infrastructure for the development of decentralized applications (dApps) with a team focused on scientific research and peer-reviewed development to ensure the platform's robustness.

The project is led by Charles Hoskinson, a co-founder of Ethereum, which adds credibility to the project. ADA its native currency is used for transactions and staking on the Cardona network. Hence, building a platform with a strong community and partnering with various organizations could potentially drive its adoption and growth.

Talking about how partnerships and building a strong community help improve the price of a cryptocurrency, Cardano has announced a series of upcoming developments for the year 2024, such as their upcoming partnership with Arbitrum, and Mina Protocol and the already announced partnership with Petrobras (a state-owned energy giant in Brazil) forming a Partnership in Blockchain Education late last month.

Based on the impressive fundamentals, I wouldn't mind recommending this coin to others willing to go on a long-term investment.


Provide the step-by-step to buy the selected cryptocurrency. Show screenshots.

For this, I will be using my preferred exchange in Binance and I will be starting the process as a novice to help those who have yet to have a Binance account.

Again, there are several means to buy Cardano (ADA) on Binance such as P2P, Spot trading, buy, and Conversion, so I will be using the conversion technique for this one. So here is the step-by-step guide;

Step 1: Go to the Binance website or app and click on "Register" to create an account. Then, fill in the required information and complete the registration process.

Step 2: Once the account is set up and verified, deposit funds into the account. Click on the "Opposite Direction Arrows" at the center of the bottom row.

Step 3: Click on "Deposit", then select the cryptocurrency or fiat currency you want to deposit and follow the instructions.

Step 4: Once your deposit has been successful, click on the "Opposite Direction Arrows" at the center of the bottom row again.

Step 6: On the convert menu, the fund in your wallet will be listed above already, so select the ADA for the below option.

To do that, click on the drop down menu of the below option, search and select ADA.

Step 7: Input the amount of Funds you want use in buying the ADA or the amount of ADA you wants to buy. And click preview.

Step 8: On the preview section, click on convert to convert your deposited funds to ADA, and wait for the transaction to be completed, to which a successful message will be displayed.

What is the future of STEEM in 2024? Give your own opinion, you can project the price of STEEM, making your analysis

STEEM is a cryptocurrency that powers the Steemit platform, a blockchain-based social media platform where users earn rewards for their content. The future of STEEM cryptocurrency depends on various factors such as market conditions, adoption, and technology advancements.

However, in this aspect, I can say the future will be great for STEEM this year due to certain events that will take place this year, one such event is the bitcoin halving coming up in April, and another is the adoption on Steem. However, I am sharing my optimism based on both Fundamental and Technical Analysis.

FUNDAMENTAL ANALYSIS

As earlier stated, one of the major news the cryptocurrency enthusiasts look up to this year is the Bitcoin Halving. Bitcoin, being the patron of all cryptocurrencies, seems to run off on others whenever its price increases or decreases, and one major means by which its price increases is the Halving happening every four years, luckily this year is one such year.

To back up my claims, let us look back to the last Halving which took place on 11th May 2020. Below are screenshots that show how the Bitcoin Halving process affected Steem.

IMG_20230912_021653.jpg
Screenshot from CoinMarketCap

The screenshot above shows the price of Steem days before May 11, 2020, where STEEM experienced a dip in price.

From 11th of May, 2020. Steem experienced a gradual increase from $0.1567 to $0.3198 in May 20, 2020. A 16.31% increase in price just 9 days later. Before ending the month of May 2020 around $0.215 with a 2.51% increase compered to its opening price.

Steem Price as at 10:25a.m May 30th, 2020
ALL SCREENSHOTS FROM CoinMarketCap

This went on to prove that the price of STEEM was affected positively by the last Bitcoin halving, Hence, I ams hopefully of the same impact this year.

Again, certain statistics tend to show that Steemit users are increasing by the day, and since STEEM is the native cryptocurrency of the Steemit platform, we can also say STEEM adoption is on the rise.

According to information SEMRUSH, in November Steemit had 6.72M visits with an average session duration of 17:04 min which is a 40.56% traffic increase when compared to the month before in October.

This increase in Traffic brought Steemit to a Global ranking of 15,238 and 10,982 in the USA.

Coupled with rumours of Steem blockchain looking to integrate layer 2 solutions into its Blockchain will only bring about a brighter future for STEEM.

TECHNICAL ANALYSIS

This is where last week's topic comes into play a handy role. Using the different analytic tools, we can predict the future of Steem.

As of the time of making this post, the 4-hour frame RSI is below the 30-mark zone of 29.44, which indicates the price is likely to make a reversal to a bullish trend.

IMG_20240103_154052.jpg
Screenshot from semrush

Whereas, the 1-week RSI is within the 30-70 neutral zone on 53.05, which indicates the price is trending neutral with the price being able to keep RSI in that state for a while.

IMG_20240103_154142.jpg

Backing this up is the 1-week time frame of MACD, where there is a slight bearish divergence as seen from the image below, the dive started from January 1st.

IMG_20240103_153755.jpg
Screenshot from semrush

To confirm these trends, I resort to using the Tradview, technical analysis tools and below are my findings.

1-week overall market summary
1-month overall market summary
All screenshots were gotten from TradeView

Where both 4-hour and 1-day time frames indicate strong buying and the 1-week time frames indicate neutral position, while the 1-month timeframe indicates buy, this confirm the results of my technical analysis.

This selling pressure has brought down the price of Steem from $0.2667 at the time I started writing this post, to $0.2336, which also confirms the indications of the 1-hour and 4-hour time frames.

Therefore, I believe that STEEM will bounce back, as shown in the 4-hour RSI indicator where it is below the 30 mark zone.


Is the future of cryptocurrencies promising? Explain. Show data on the adoption of cryptocurrencies in the world. Give your own opinion

The future of cryptocurrency looks very promising, especially starting from this year, 2024. Cryptocurrencies have been experiencing expansive growth since 2009 with the emergence of Bitcoin after being labelled as a scam in its early beginnings.

This year marks its 15 years in existence, and with the continued advancement of technology, it can only get better as people continue to invest and adopt cryptocurrencies as they keep growing across borders.

With several countries in different parts of the world accepting cryptocurrencies as a means of payment, this can only lead to more adoption and with more adoption, the future can only be better.

According to Statista, over 60 million new cryptocurrency users are expected in 2024, taking the total number of crypto users to 318 million people worldwide, an increase of 8%, compared to last year, which was estimated to be 294 million people worldwide. link with India, Nigeria and Vietnam leading the index of grassroots crypto adoption.

Looking into the Fear and Greed statistics of Bitcoin also, as of today, its current score is 70 marking, this is an indication that the world, in general, is becoming more acquainted with cryptocurrencies that they prefer to keep it rather than fear losing it.

IMG_20240103_173023.jpg
Screenshot from coinstats

The Fear and Greed Index serves as a measure of traders' emotional overreactions to the market indicating people's greed and fear. Traders tend to be greedy when the market is rising resulting in FOMO (Fear of missing out), while traders often sell their coins when they see red numbers.

As, extreme fear indicates that investors are too worried, causing them to sell and when Investors are getting too greedy, it means the market is due for a correction. Therefore, the 70 mark means that the market is within a stable zone.

CONCLUSION

As Bitcoin is expected to reduce the rate of new Bitcoin through halving which is expected to happen around April 2024, cryptocurrency enthusiasts are hopeful of making profits various other Altcoin like Steem. However we should also have in mind that a lot other factors plays a role to crypto prices in future and it can be hard to predict the future of anything, therefore if you choose to invest in any cryptocurrency be sure to manage the risk properly.

I wish to invite @yakspeace, @ninapenda, @ruthjoe, @drhira and @suboohi

Thank You for your Time

Thank you so much for your kind words. I'm really glad you found my analysis on digital currencies fascinating. I chose Cardano (ADA) because it takes a scientific approach and has strategic partnerships. I'm also optimistic about STEEM in 2024 because of Bitcoin's halving and the development of Steemit. I tried my best to present the technical and fundamental analysis in a clear way to show the potential for recovery. The fact that cryptocurrencies are gaining global acceptance and more people are using them is really encouraging. I'm thrilled that you found my analysis solid and captivating. Thank you once again.

A very interesting, intriguing and educative post which you have shared with your fellow crypto enthusiasts in this great community. I seriously appreciate your efforts in providing such a well detailed post both in write ups and in graphics.

The Cardano (ADA) coin is a very good coin I think we both have trust in, to have good performances in this year. It fundamentals which you broadly analysed shows more reasons why this coin have the potential to hit $1 or above in 2024. Cardano (ADA) is been led by The co-founder of Ethereum, Charles Hoskinson which like you actually said, adds more credibility to this project. I personally recommend anyone to buy this cryptocurrency..

The images shown, in reference tobthe effect the Bitcoin halving had on steem in 2020, really made much sense and eventually, when it happens again, I'm sure a drastic shift will be noticed in the price of Steem in this year.

It's 15 years of existence to Bitcoin and its trends over the years are amazing. The future of cryptocurrency is actually promising as the global rate of adoption is gradually increasing.

Thanks for sharing and Goodluck

Greetings Friend,
Thanks for the awesome feedback. I'm really glad you found my post interesting and educational. It means a lot to me that you appreciate the effort I put into providing detailed information, both in writing and graphics.

You are right about Cardano (ADA). It's a coin that both of us have trust in, and I believe it has the potential to perform really well this year. The fundamentals of Cardano are solid, and as you mentioned, being led by Charles Hoskinson, the co-founder of Ethereum, adds even more credibility to the project. I wholeheartedly recommend anyone to consider buying this cryptocurrency.

It's fascinating to see how these events can have a significant effect on the price of cryptocurrencies like Steem. I wouldn't be surprised if we see another noticeable shift in Steem's price when the next halving happens.

And you're spot on about the future of cryptocurrency. With the increasing global adoption rate, it's clear that the future looks promising. Bitcoin has been around for 15 years now, and its trends over the years have been truly amazing.

Thanks again for sharing your thoughts, and good luck to you too.
