My Investment in Jupiter and Solana: A Journey of Risk and Stability
I have dipped my resources into Jupiter, a DeFi aggregator on the Solana blockchain, exploring lending and borrowing. My primary position uses JLP as collateral and borrows USDC, offering an attractive APY with a multiplier that amplifies gains. However, the risk of liquidation in the face of declines in JLP's value keeps me vigilant, requiring constant adjustments.
Recently, I diversified by moving part of my assets to USDC in lending, choosing a more stable APY. Solana, with its fast transactions and low fees, powers this strategy, ideal for dynamic DeFi. My approach combines the rapid growth potential of JLP with the safety of USDC lending, adjusting my exposure to mitigate risks. Active monitoring and timely decisions are key to balancing profitability and peace of mind in this ecosystem.$SOL (+0.38%) $USDC (+0.01%) $JLP (-0.35%) #crypto #lending #borrow
Solana at its highest level since February 2025 🚀🚀🚀🚀
$SOL (+0.38%) currently stands at 215 $, its highest level since the beginning of the year.
This could be a strong finish to the #Krypto-summer 🚀 The last 3 days of August have already hit their stride.
Now the exciting question: will there be enough momentum to recapture the old all-time highs of around $295 by the end of the year and perhaps even march towards $400-500, as some analysts suspect?
The choice between crypto and the expensive S&P500
Investors today face a striking dilemma. The S&P500, once the epitome of broad diversification, is now dominated by a small number of AI tech giants. Their share prices have risen so much that the index has almost become a mirror image of a handful of expensive companies. The risk of that is clear: if one of those giants stumbles, the whole market feels the blow. In contrast is the largest cryptocurrency.
Despite fluctuations, it offers momentum that is less dependent on a single cluster of companies.
Whereas the S&P500 floats on overconcentrated and pricey expectations, crypto actually seems to promise more room for new capital flows and growth. For those looking ahead, that's a compelling argument.
Digital investment products recorded inflows of USD 3.75 billion
The fourth largest inflows in history, with assets under management (AuM) reaching an all-time high of USD 244 billion.
$ETH (-0.48%) led with inflows of USD 2.87bn (77% of total volume) and increased year-to-date (YTD) inflows to a record high of USD 11bn, significantly outperforming $BTC (+0.25%) significantly outperforming the proportional comparison.
$SOL (+0.38%) and $XRP (-0.08%) recorded inflows of USD 176.5 million and USD 125.9 million respectively. In contrast, Litecoin and Ton saw outflows of USD 0.4 million and USD 1 million respectively.
Hello everyone, I already have $BTC (+0.25%) and $SOL (+0.38%) on my TradeRepublik, but I don't feel so comfortable with it. I would like to get into the following projects during the next fear phase :
Not quite convinced yet, as I simply missed the boat here and was always hoping for a "better start". $ETH (-0.48%)
This is where the greed got me, tick it off and do better next time. I also find Tao and Ondo interesting. But these are all projects that are not tradable on TradeRepublik apart from $ETH (-0.48%) and those already mentioned.
Now to the question :
-Which platform / broker is the best for you and why?
-Which projects are you looking at for the next setback ?
-What have you learned in terms of "greed", whether crypto or equities?
