Unfortunately we have had a bit of a perfect storm here over the past couple of months, apart form war, covid, the world economy in general and the bear equity market, we are currently inextricably linked to the Crypto as well. We have then had Dynasty putting off its IPO, which in this market is actually probably a good thing, and no further information regarding any possible buy out, and all other investments are either down or insignificant.

But nothing has changed, in fact I believe the main investments are in better shape than ever. AS IC888 has mentioned GUILD looks to have turned the corner, Dynasty has clearly altered its business model and grown exponentially, and is now in a period of consolidating and monetising that growth to maximise an IPO or buy-out. And of course we have ,for me at least, what is the jewel in the crown - Satoshipay and its subsidiaries. I dont believe the market fully understands what is coming here and whilst it is in the current development stage isnt prepared to put a value on it, and in reality how can it. But in the coming years as Web3, digital assets, crypto, CBDCs become mainstream, Satoshipay could be in the centre of it - if they get it right or course.
ALL IMO.

Also expect the Pendulum forex AMM whitepaper to be released any day now.

Cryptobot - yes but there is a big distinction here with the missing link to fiat probiding access to forex AMM and and fundamentally providing the backbone for Dtransfer and the cross border payments market. Both markets are huge and can be valued - in time :-)

Shifty - technically yes but its really more complicated than that. Amplitude will issue 200m AMPR tokens in total and will use approx 11% as crowdloan rewards. So technically depending on what the AMPR token then trades at provides a market cap. But its not that simple as the tokens left will have to be allocated for various uses for the life of the parachain to function such as Parachain bond funding, investor funding, liquidity programmes, developer programmes and some kind of treasury for future auctions to continue to be a Parachain etc.

I am sure in time there will be a reasonable way of valuation In all honesty I really don't quite know how until we see know the completed allocation as well as the uptake of Dapps etc.

Hope that makes sense

Duke - are we hsving a competition as to how many times we can spell Pendulum ;-)

Uriney - its just a screenshot sample - a taste if how its developing. Fo me its looking exceptionally clear and simple which is another part of the jigsaw for mass adoption. So many crypto spaces are all but impossible to understand

Just thought people might like to see how the look of things are shaping up

I think the current SP really just reflects the horrible state of the markets at the moment - both crypto and equity - pretty well everything has fallen and the worst victims are emerging tech or early stage growth Companies.

All I can say is that from a personal point of view I have invested for the long term and have always stated 12/18 months play - MINIMUM so the current state of play doesnt really concern me as I am confident in my research and conviction. Only time will tell if Im an idiot or not.

So much going on in this space right now - Amber AMM (being built on Pendulum)

bisrd - board - fat fingers

Clearly lots of interested parties getting involved with Pendulum and whilst it seemed obvious that they would when this project started its really encouraging that theybare coming on bisrd at this early stage. Another one could be Mangata https://mangata.finance/. - just a hunch ;-0
