It is soon time to start the new year, and as we prepare, we often plan great things. We want 2025 to be the year of breakthrough, success, health, and for great investments. But, it is often more challenging than we think to find good investment opportunities.
I have read quite a lot of books about investments recently, and they are carry wisdom and help.... but the real problem is finding a gem that will give financial growth, and with which you can feel safe as you invest your precious money.
Another challenge is finding a project and a company that you can invest in that comes with minimal risk, but at the same time has a great potential for growth. OF course, you can consider investing in S&P 500, Dow Jones, or some other similar index, or maybe buy Nvidia or Tesla stocks. But, if you think of cryptocurrencies, there are many projects that I find really interesting and worth considering. A general advice I have found in the books I have read is to find teams that have works consistently throughout both bear and bull markets, and in the world of cryptocurrencies, that is sometimes difficult, because it is still so young.
But, one project I do find interesting and that I suggest you look further into is Merchant Moe!
You can find the website of Merchant Moe at https://www.merchantmoe.com/. Even though we do not have the names of the team, we do know it is created by the same people that created Trader Joe, the most popular DEX on Avalanche, and a decentralized exchange that went to the moon during the last bull market, then has dumped a lot in price since then, but is now climbing back upwards. What is interesting is that throughout this same period many other DEXes on Avalanche has died, or just remained behind. I remember years ago as I didn't know whether I liked TraderJoe or Pangolin the most... well, that is no longer a question. TraderJoe has just worked and grown, even through hardships, while Pangolin has gone the opposite way.
And now it is soon one year since the team behind TraderJoe launched Merchant Moe on the Mantle Network. It has everything you expect to find in a great decentralized exchange, and it has lots of possibilities for those who want to earn passive income. You can buy the MOE token and stake it on the platform and earn a percentage of the fees gathered on the platform. Currently the APR for just staking your MOE tokens is about 10%. That in itself is a fairly good interest. But, you can earn a lot more simply buy using your veMOE power (something you get by staking MOE tokens) to vote for which of the different pools on the DEX that should get the most rewards. Right now there are crazy high rewards for such votes, and such opportunities come and go throughout the entire year.
Want to earn even more? The MOE token has a fantastic potential for growth as the need for this token will grow, and the emission of the token is decreasing. We might not be able to compare it with Bitcoin, but we are in for a real supply-shock when the world discovers MOE and decides to invest.
Right now, and for more than one more month, you can also boost all sorts of rewards due to Moe's Rager, a special rewards boost in which 1 million MNT tokens are handed out across the Merchant Moe platform to active users, to voters, to those staking MOE tokens, to those adding liquidity to the platform, and so much more. Doesn't that sound like fun?
This is not financial advice or investment advice, but I do suggest you take a closer look at Merchant Moe. My adventure started on January 8th last year, and even though there have been ups and downs since then, I have both enjoyed the ride and it has definitely been a fruitful ride so far!
