In this live broadcast, several guests shared their views on market hot issues such as the Fed’s September rate hike, primary and secondary market star project investment, Web3 layout, and crypto market liquidity.

Ken of BitWell Research Institute shares his own views:

On the Fed’s September rate hike:

The Fed is still likely to adopt a relatively tight fiscal policy, at least 50 basis points of interest rate hike in September, 75 basis points is also relatively high. The overall environment is quite unsatisfactory. For the bottom fishing of US stocks, Bitcoin, gold and other commodities, or a stage on the relatively left side.

About Web3:

Every technological innovation is the inevitable result of user needs and the existing problems of the Internet. Therefore, the disadvantages of Web2 will be the direction that users change to Web3, such as unjust systems, overly centralized management, privacy protection, etc.. Once companies solve these problems and give users higher degrees of freedom and privacy protection, then It will be easier to attract users.

About the investment in the top-rated projects or secondary market:

BitWell Labs, a specific investment institution, and BitWell research institution will mainly do some research for it. BitWell Labs will participate in the incubation of some early projects and primary market investment, like meta-universe, Web3, DeFi field will contact with some early projects. After incubation, they will choose a good time for debut, with the goal of selecting high-quality or potential projects.

The Institute has many requirements for reference check of projects, such as background, economic model, user interaction activity and so on.

The team members also have a unique investment vision, with GMT exceeding 100x and People entering very early.

In the secondary market, some of our partners, Web3’s project RSS3 and Metis are listed on Coinbase, and their performance is also good.

Our Institute will publicly release some project research reports from time to time for users to make reference and selection.

On liquidity issues in bear markets:

The advice in a bear market is of course still to reduce your own operations as much as possible, both contract and spot, because the earning benefit in a bear market must be less than in a bull market, so the profit-loss ratio and the rate of return will be relatively distorted. However, the bear market is also a better investment cycle, you can learn to choose some fixed investment way to make a long term with-funding in the value currencies that you have researched. The bear market is a better learning phase and fixed investment phase, investing in yourself and learning more skills would be a relatively good choice.

For example, Litecoin halving will begin on August 5 next year, and there may be some opportunities during each decline, which still depends on one’s investment preferences and operation ways.

The next round of bitcoin halving is in May 2024, so it is expected that a new round of bull market will start in 2024. The bull is short and the bear is long. If you can make money in a market that suits you, it is a bull market.

For the platform, liquidity is the most important thing. If there is a liquidity crisis, then a run crisis will occur. Like many platforms involved in UST mining and thus going bankrupt, BitWell has never been involved in UST financial management. Because we aren’t familiar with it, and the lesson learned before is that there are stable coins with BitShares, so we dodged a bullet because of caution and reverence. BitWell also has a principle that it will never misappropriate users’ funds for external investment.

For the platform, cash accounts for the largest proportion. Certainly, there are many projects in the bear market that have a very low market value. BitWell will also choose some high-quality projects for investment.
