- Crypto Slangs Part 6: - FOMO
Are you afraid of missing out on the crypto market? Let's talk about FOMO.
FOMO - Fear of missing out. This is the feeling you usually get when your friends or other people in stock/crypto market make huge profits and you feel like missing out. You feel being left in money making opportunity. With this worry, you start dreaming of making huge money bags and start investing in random stocks/cryptos with out any research. This often results in huge losses because you didnt do your research when investing. This is FOMO investing is very dangerous. Instead, when you feel FOMO, take a step back, research about the Crypto Project you heard of, then only research if you want to put money.

- Thread on **Testnet** **faucets** - My experience shared below
Lately, I've noticed that testnet faucets have become increasingly **difficult** for users. It's becoming quite a hassle to obtain test tokens these days. Take the **Goerli** **Testnet**, for example:
The amount of ETH you receive from **http://goerlifaucet.com** is minimal. It's barely enough to conduct even basic transactions and explore the network
Many faucets now require you to link your **Twitter** account or sign up with your **email**. This raises concerns about anonymity. After all, if we have to provide all our personal details, how can we maintain our privacy while experimenting with test networks?
The faucet provided by **@coinbase http://coinbase.com/faucets** requires at least **0.002** **ETH** on the Eth mainnet. This doesn't make sense for a testnet faucet. It forces users to spend real money on a crypto exchange, complete **KYC**, meet **withdrawal** limits, and cover **gas** fees. These barriers **discourage** newbies in DeFi who want to explore and learn.1
I have been looking for opportunities to get Crypto Airdrops without spending real money and creating content around it. I'm genuinely concerned about these barriers. I firmly believe that we should enable people to access these airdrops without having to spend real money.
Otherwise, it becomes **challenging** to onboard more retail users into Web3 and hinder wider adoption.
What are your thoughts on this? Share in the comments, and please share if you think this issue deserves more attention.

- What are ALTCOINS?
Any Cryptocurrency or token that is not Bitcoin is called ALTCOIN or alternative coin. There coins were created with a intention of creating something better than Bitcoin or to achieve something that was limited in BITCOIN.
Today we have countless number of Altcoins of which some are able to perform high speed transaction, some with lower transaction fees and some come with additional features called SMART CONTRACT which was first seen in ETHEREUM blockchain.
Although these ALTCOINS have more functionality, they tend to be very volatile in nature. So if you plan to invest in these please be very careful and do your research properly then only invest in this.

- Bitcoin Whitepaper found in macOS!
If you're using macOS, open terminal and copy paste below command and see what happens: 😄
open /System/Library/Image\ Capture/Devices/VirtualScanner.app/Contents/Resources/simpledoc.pdf
Guys, did you know that Bitcoin is again in news in past 20 hrs. Well, ths time its not because of Balaji Srinivasan, nor Elon musk. But its because of one of the biggest company in the world APPLE!
Let's find out what happened?
So, today morning I saw a tweet from BITCOIN MAGAZINE saying Bitcoin Whitepaper apparently is added with every copy of macOS since Mojave in 2018.
What is Whitepaper? You can say it's a document that explains you about Technical details and core concepts of a project. In 2008, Bitcoin Whitepaper was published first time by Satoshi Nakamoto and rest is history.
Now the question is why this file was added in macOS? Is Apple actually supporting Bitcoin secretly since 2018? Does Apple believe in Bitcoin? Or this is just a coincidence that a employee just added this file inside the folder randomly and it happened to be this Bitcoin Whitepaper?
Well, I dont know, you never know. But time will only tell. But all I can recall is when Steve Wozniak appreciated about Btc last year and said it's 'Pure Gold Mathematics' in support of it. Is actually something cooking in Apple?

- Big news: Sound will soon be open to all artists 🔊
We always promised to build an open platform.
Now we’re getting close…
A thread 👇
From day one we promised that Sound would eventually open to everyone.
All artists should have access to the best Web3 tools.
We’ll have more details soon, but today we wanted to give you some transparency on the thought process behind opening up…
🔶 The tl;dr
Before Sound opens, we need to make sure everything is ready:
1. Smooth onboarding process
2. Building features for a mass audience.
3. Battle testing the platform.
4. Do things that don’t scale.
5. Verifying audio ownership
6. Thank you for being patient 🙏
Let’s go through them…
🔶 1. Smooth onboarding
So far we have personally onboarded all 400 artists one-by-one on video calls. By doing this we learned all the pain points and deeply understood who we are building for.
Now we can turn that process into seamless onboarding for all artists.
🔶 2. Building features for mass audience
We are thinking big. Sound needs to be ready for millions of music fans and tens of thousands of artists. That means building features that work at scale, such as:
🔹Simplifying the user experience
Email sign-ups
Credit card payments
Mobile app
🔹Building a discovery layer
Better ways to discover music on Sound beyond the first 24-hours of a drop.
And the ability to browse through thousands of artists.
🔹Sustainable drop methods
Offer an alternative to the ‘sellout’ mentality.
We wanted to give artists a sustainable, long-term way to sell their music, which is why we built Sound Swap.
These features are rolling out to all artists over the coming weeks.
🔶 3. Battle testing the platform
To get to the point where we’re ready for millions of music fans, we needed to stress test every part of the platform and iterate fast.
Working closely with a curated group of artists allowed us to do that and get feedback in real time. Together we’ve experimented with hundreds of features and honed the product until it's ready.
We figured out what works.
What didn’t work.
We refined it.
Now we can roll it out to everyone.
🔶 4. Doing things that don’t scale
A core principle of building a startup is doing things that don’t scale.
We onboarded every artist with a white-glove service.
We hosted daily Twitter Spaces to showcase artists.
We tweeted about every drop.
We spoke to artists and collectors every single day.
All of these things were essential for kickstarting the flywheel. Now there’s enough momentum that Sound can accelerate on its own.
🔶 5. Verifying audio ownership
Opening up Sound will bring new challenges for our team… For example, what happens if someone uploads music that doesn’t belong to them?
We’ve been building tools to counter this problem (such as audio footprint technology). We also wanted to focus all our resources on the core product rather than fighting legal issues at such an early stage.
🔶 6. Thank you for being patient
We know that hundreds of artists have applied to Sound and waited patiently. We hear your feedback about decentralization. Trust that we’ve been working towards this from day one and we’re nearly there.
Within three months every artist will have access to Sound and all our artist tools. The next era of music NFTs is coming. Thanks for coming on this journey with us.
- What is AIRDROP?
Airdrop is a way in which Crypto project give their token/coins to lot fusers wallet addresses for FREE. Sounds amazing right?
But why would give FREE MONEY this way? 2 Reasons:
1. Marketing: The moment something is given for free, it gains a lot of traction and often becomes word of mouth. This gives free publicity. This is what RELIANCE did by giving JIO SIM for free with FREE DATA!!! People will get excited about free stuff and will come explore this and might even start becoming a regular user. There you have your user base increased
2. Reward to Early Adopter: Often when any project starts, they would some users to test their product. So there will be users who will come and start using the product. They will test, use and give feedback and this way help the project grow. As a token of gratitude to such users, projects would be happy to give them some free tokens.
Now who doesn’t love free money??? There are some more ways you can get Crypto Airdrops and will cover them in coming days.
So now are you thinking if you can get any CRYPTO AIRDROPS?

Today I have made an important decision in my life 📢
I quit my job today and going to focus full-time on maintaining the first-ever open-source frontend @lenster.lens 🌸 powered by @lensprotocol 🌿.
Building social media was my dream since 10th grade, I built more than 4 social media in public but all failed, Lenster is my 5th one and it’s going crazy ⚡️.
I believe building in public is key 🔑 to the success of a product.
We have a lot of items queued up in the roadmap, be excited about it 🕺
**Collect this post for 2 WMATIC and support Lenster’s development 🙏**

- **HODL** - *`Hold On for Dear Life`*
This term is widely used among Crypto community to encourage investors to encourage NOT TO SELL their assets when markets are having bad time📉 and prices are down. Instead hold the asset for long term as, in long term it is expected that assets will increase in price📈 and give profit💰
Funny story behind how this term was born is:
In Dec 2013, when Bitcoin had crashed, a guy posted in BitcoinTalk community that he'll be HODLING his bitcoin. But he happened to misspell HOLD and wrote HODL😅
This caught wild attraction among investors and tons of memes were around in no time. Ever since this term has been widely in use among investors to encourage play LONG TERM game in investing 🔥
