News Bulletin – January 2022
Market Overview
It was a tough month in the crypto markets with sentiment at Extreme Fearand the market falling by 20% over the last 30 days.
It has to be said that the market weakness shows no sign of abating. That makes picking winners virtually impossible in the short term. To counter this negative sentiment we must continue to buy on weakness and hold our favorite projects until the market turns. The time will come, but the flight must be to quality. That buy and hold approach is not going to work with overvalued memecoins and projects with no fundamentals and users. Avoid new projects that have anonymous teams and triple check OHMforks and metaverse projects before investing, many of these are scams.
It’s better to be holding stable coins in this market sell off and only a few fundamentally sound projects.
Trending
Rapid fire
- Crypto investors lost over $2.8 billion to ‘rug pulls’. That represented 37% of the over $7.7 billion in illicit profits from cryptos cams this year. One such recent rug pull was at Candela Coin, the solar power blockchain project. The founder did a runner, briefly raising his chubby little face to complain of a hack and then disappearing again when investors turned up the heat. You can read the full story of this classic rug pull below.
- BitMart the crypto exchange was hacked, looting the exchange of $150 million of mainly second rate tokens.
- It has been claimed that once women start buying and using crypto in a similar vein to men crypto will have reached mass adoption. Some claim we are there now. However, depending on the view you take, the signs are positive. Australia for instance, where adoption is already high, has seen women holding crypto double in 2021.
- Shiba Inu, the memecoin that was inspired by Dogecoin and Elon Musk, saw its market cap rise to the point where it became the 13th most valuable cryptocurrency briefly overtaking Dogecoin. At a valuation of $16 billion we have to ask ourselves, has the market correction got further to go?
- Decentralized exchanges are often seen as an effective way of protecting your privacy. But don’t be so sure. Many of the biggest ones are tracking their users’ trades and collecting data that could be used to identify them. Uniswap admits it is in cahoots with analytics companies to do exactly that, a shocker for most of us!
- Many countries are clamping down on the use of crypto. Turkey is next on the cards. However there are countries which are crypto friendly. These are the top nine. Antigua, Canada, El Salvador, Germany, Japan, Lithuania, Netherlands, Singapore and The British Virgin Islands.
- Binance Coin was the best performer of the three top cryptocurrencies of 2021 rising by 1344%. The adoption of Binance’s smart chain was partly the reason for this phenomenal rise. It is now the place to find innovative exciting projects which was definitely not the case only a few months ago.

SPIN Releases New Jackpot Tokenomics
SPIN, a BSC Token launched in November 2021, just updated their jackpot tokenomics! To explain how amazing this update is, let’s cover the basics. There are two SPIN Jackpots, the Super SPIN and the Mega SPIN. They are both funded by 2% of the buy and sell taxes of $SPIN. The only way to enter into these pots is by buying 0.01 BNB of $SPIN, or more for additional credits, from Pancakeswap. If a player sells any tokens before the wheel spins, they lose all of their credits. The Super SPIN remains the same, spinning once a week- winner takes all! The Mega SPIN however, was drastically changed to introduce more fomo and buy pressure — key to any successful project.
The Mega SPIN, which used to spin weekly as well, now spins daily with one major caveat – Spinny can win! For each credit a player receives; Spinny receives nine! That is right, Spinny will always have a 90% chance to win! If Spinny wins, credits are reset and all of the money stays in the pot until the next spin in 24 hours. So, now the only people who can win are the ones who buy within the next 24 hours, giving them the chance to win it all with less competition… unless Spinny wins again and the process repeats! Watch the jackpots and choose the best entry points at spinbsc.app!

Happy New Year and may 2022 bring you happiness and wealth!
