CRO Coin 20% APY Campaign VS The Comments Section (regrets….)

Added: 2026-05-24

[00:00:00]Okay, so recently I put out a video talking about CRO and Crypto.com and they put out a campaign talking about 20% APY, incredible returns if you lock up CRO. The timing of this was questionable. We addressed it on the channel the other day. I did a video kind of checking in on the progress of this is this was revealed and unleashed to the Crow community, the Crow fam. uh a little over a year ago, I believe now, where they offer this and I wanted to talk about how I thought it was playing out. And then I I even asked the audience, I asked you guys, what are your thoughts on this APY campaign?

[00:00:43]Because just to rehash it out, my original suspect was uh my original thoughts were that this was probably not a good idea for me. I didn't lock up. Uh I've participated in in lockups before.

[00:00:57]This wasn't the first time they'd done something like this. And what I thought was this is an opportunity for them to prevent selling in a bare market. I thought that they still believed a bare market was coming. Even though we saw a little bit more of an optimistic message uh from a lot of the corporate crypto entities out there, there was still reason to believe that a bare market was coming. And I think that Crypto.com even saw that coming. But they unleashed this 20% APY thing for the community to take advantage of. And I saw some people asking me, "Are you gonna do it?" I said no. And I explained why. And so I addressed this in my video the other day saying, "Well, here's how I think it went." And basically what I I came to the conclusion of is based on price action, it wasn't a good idea for probably over 90% of people, maybe even 95% of people. that 5 percent that it might be worth it for are the people that are going to hold CRO basically no matter what and want to get 20% APY and don't care about you know riding a coin from you know its highs to a 90% draw down like we see from so many altcoins including CRO in a bare market and I believe that those suspicions were for the large part accurate but now I want to talk about some of the comments that I received on the video and I am here to report that uh my analysis on this I believe it was accurate based on the feedback back I got. Here's some of the comments that I kind of saw. Some people said, "Well, it's not worth it if you, you know, don't believe in the or it's worth it if you believe in the long-term vision of Crypto.com, which by the way, I believe in the long-term vision of Crypto.com. I believe in long-term vision of CRO. However, I still don't think that it's worth it because I actually like to take profit in the par in the parabolic phase of a bull market.

[00:02:41]I like to shuffle some of my money to the sidelines. If if crypto goes into a classic 4 year cycle, I like to shuffle to the sideline. But some people out there again that like 5% maybe a little bit more say, you know what, no, I love crow so much it was worth it. I don't even care. Who cares if it goes from this price to that price? As long as I'm getting 20% APY, one day Crow is going to be so much higher that it's totally going to be worth it. The thing that I think is missing from that is well what if you had just sold some crow at the top bought back in the bottom of the bare market you would have made a lot more than the 20% APY. So there's the challenge flag I throw to anybody that says that it's worth it. Now there were some people out there that do agree with me as well and in that it wasn't worth it and that makes sense to me because I hear the actual stories in the comment section. And there's people out there that are telling me, "Yeah, I locked up my crow and then it prevented me from being able to take out like $35,000."

[00:03:38]That was one of the comments that I saw.

[00:03:40]Or I locked up my crow and yeah, I barely broke even. Or I locked up my crow and it's, you know, it's killing me right now. Well, and here's what I want to say to anybody that might have locked up your crow and you're you're still holding it and you're still stuck in that. Or uh maybe the lockup period's done, but you don't know what to do.

[00:03:58]We're already halfway through this bare market. We are likely going to find a bottom, I think, at some point in 2026.

[00:04:04]And I'm not a financial adviser. I'm not here to give you guys financial advice.

[00:04:06]I have been predicting this market pretty darn accurately from my analysis of the 20% APY for CRO to the Bitcoin price action, just the general bull bare mic market cycles and kind of when the top was going to be in the last cycle.

[00:04:18]We called it and I'm trying to call the bottom as well. I believe it's just really a logical prediction, which is that classic bottom coming in probably October 2026 based on the time frame that a bare market lasts and based on the time frame that a bull market lasts.

[00:04:35]But if you're one of those people that's in the red on that position, the good news is is I think that the bull market will be coming back in late 2026 starting in early 2027 with, you know, high hope. Um, was it worth it? you know, at this point, if you did it, it's done. So, you can take a lesson and and learn from it and decide whether you think something like that's worth it.

[00:04:58]Again, would I be panic selling my positions right now at this time? I I think that anybody who's holding on to the tokens uh and you're thinking about selling at this point that is uh a good example of how people I think it hurt the most in crypto because what a lot of people do is when top is coming in they panic buy more and then the price starts going down and maybe they'll buy a little bit more even as the price goes down and then it gets to such a painful point that the price gets so low and then maybe your APY why unlock cam and you're like, you know what, forget it.

[00:05:35]I'm cutting my losses. I'm out. And that's usually the very moment or close to the moment where we actually see a market bottom. And so what we need to do is set our emotions aside. Look at this uh 20% APY offer that we had as a, you know, as a little bit of a lesson for some people. If you're that 5% and you like love the long-term vision of crow and you really don't care and you're not going to play the game of taking profit in a bull market or whatever, then that maybe works for you. If you're somebody that likes to keep the US dollar value of your cash and continue to grow those positions, utilizing crypto as a tool, having some long-term positions, but taking off a majority of your stack in the peak phase of the bull market and then buy back lower. I'm more in that camp and I'm looking at, you know, everything that pops up here is a learning opportunity. And so, you know, hopefully, you know, folks that that locked up aren't kicking themselves too bad. I think that majority of people ended up losing value in US dollars if they had locked up their crow as opposed to having just maybe taken profit of the same amount and then buying back even at these prices. And and again, I think that the crow coin price could go a lot lower and then down the road $1 I believe is still on the table. And so let's just pretend you did end up doing the lockup and you ended up say let's just pretend you locked up a million crow now you got 1.2 million crow. Well, if Crowcoin goes to a dollar one day, hypothetically, yeah, then in a year with the 20% APY, you earn $200,000 for staking. And that sounds pretty good.

[00:07:06]But also, I know that's not for everybody. It certainly wasn't for me.

[00:07:11]If they ever launch a campaign like this again, I personally wouldn't take advantage of it again, uh, unless maybe they came out with it in the bottom of a bare market. And that leads me to kind of my final point of this video. I see so many people out there saying, "Well, they should do it again because right now would be a very logical time or getting close to that logical time." If they launched some big APY campaign right now or even if Crowcoin came down to 3 cents and then they launched that APY campaign, that would be insane.

[00:07:41]Could you imagine what if they was down to 3 cents and you had, you know, I don't know, 200,000, 500,000 crow and you could get 20% APY or a million crow.

[00:07:50]you could get 20% APY and Crow goes from 3 cents to a dollar or something like that. That APY would be much more than 20% at that point. You'd be getting much bigger reward than 20% because if the price goes up, your US value goes up and you were getting 20% APY on the price of CRO. But 20% APY on the price of CRO, which then appreciates in price, makes it a much bigger gain. But the reality of this situation is they're not going to do that. I don't think Crypto.com knows the market better than the retail investor, better than you and me. They are the feet on the street. They're the ones planning legislation with government, sitting down at the White House, talking about the future of crypto in the US with the president of the United States. For them to launch the staking in the middle of a bare market or at the bottom of a bare market is highly unlikely. And I say that because historically when they offer these deals, it seems to come out towards or approaching a market cycle top. And I believe they do it so that there's less selling pressure in the bare market, which I believe enables the CRL price to hold at rank number 30 in a bare market. It sustains itself very well compared to the rest of the cryptocurrencies. I think that these offers that they do are good for that.

[00:09:04]And so if you support Crypto.com and you want to prevent mass selling from the masses, if you participate in the 20% APY, and many people do, technically that makes it so the price won't go lower. And so those folks that are doing lockups are doing a favor for the rest of us that are just holding our crow or small positions of crow. Um it does. But if you're sitting here and you're looking to buy the market bottom, well guys, I believe that that bottom is coming. I'm excited for it. I just kind of wanted to talk about some of the comments that I saw kind of hit on some of the points. People are like, is it going to they should launch it right now? They're probably not going to launch it again. Not until we're getting close to the next peak of the next bull market. maybe 2028, 2029. I haven't mathed that out yet, but that's logically, you know, we're many years away from the next market top. This classic 4 year cycles play out over and over again. I've seen the 20% APY happen more than once now. And I've never really been into it. Uh there's other ways to make a buck. Uh the stock market has been pretty hot while the crypto market's been down. That's something that I think everybody needs to be paying attention to at the very least, just paying attention to it. Uh, pay attention to the four-year cycles. Pay attention to the legislation. The Cryptoclarity Act is down to a 50% chance of passing. Not very good odds. A lot worse odds than people originally might have thought. Uh, I'm not that surprised. It's going to be very difficult for the Cryptoclarity Act to get put through. The banking industry seems to hate crypto. Uh, they pretend like they're friendly to it, but if you really pay attention, you see that they oppose it. And this is going to take a long time to change until one bank capitulates and starts really competing in the crypto space and the other banks are forced to hop on board. We've got a long road to go. We started to see a small shift, but the Crypto Clarity Act passing. If it doesn't pass and it doesn't get signed of law, that's a bearish catalyst that could lead us to these lower prices. Uh again, as time goes on, maybe that gets put through. I think there's a lot of bullish things coming and bullish catalyst coming sometime into 2027 and 2028 as we go into the next bull market that are inevitable. Uh I'm looking forward to reporting those for CRO Bitcoin the crypto market as a whole. So subscribe to the channel for more content. We'll continue to talk about it here day in day out.
