ALT Coin - is alternative coin everything that’s not bitcoin. e.g. Solana, mana, etc
How ALT coin builds - start looking at 2 types of altcoin (Layer 1 and layer 2)
Layer 1 Smart contract project: ETH, SOL, ADA, DOT - is a lot bigger than layer 2 project
Layer 2: is a project build by layer 1: Maker. AAVE, MANA, SAND called DAPP
Original Chain and Forked Chain
Bitcoin is the original chain
Forked chain - e.g. bitcoin cash, litecoin, zcash - they are not on bitcoin - they copy the original chain to build their own chain
How do you recognize layer 1 layer 2 - in coingecko, you can look at the contract
Defi (decentralized finance) - is important because all the bit project will help the layer 1 to grow.
I need defi so that money can go/move around the project
E.g. SOLANA is a smart project like ETH it’s a layer 1 so the project can build in it.
We need money to flow in SOLANA
If you want to do money, you need to follow the money
Money: swap, staking, and farming
SOLANA
Layer 2: DeFi project
When you build a portfolio you should always look at that, what’s layer 1 let says SOLANA, ETH, think now how money that gonna flow, now I am gonna find the money in DeFi.
E.g. Defi Llama (project) > RAYDIUM
Trend: Metaverse: ETH > DeFI project where the money go
Staking: most of the project we can stack, when you stack you basically you can do money on your money, it’s money on your investment. (passive income) DeFi
POS and POW
Proof of Staking (SOLANA) and Prof of work/mining (BITCOIN) - this is how blockchain works
First you need to look at a blockchain (which is like a server on the internet) - in the blockchain you can see everything
NODES:
E.g. wallet A want to send to wallet B - 10bitcoin
NODES: is in the center like a policeman (validator)
You can do money while staking
TAKE ACTION!
MINDSET IS KEY!
