3 Cryptos to Buy Before They Blast Higher
Consequently, it’s the best time to wager on the best cryptos to buy.
With increasing mainstream adoption, smart money pouring in, and a laundry list of use cases, digital assets will continue growing over the long term. Furthermore, as governments and central banks across the globe explore digital currencies, the credibility of blockchain technology will only improve over time. As the world increasingly embraces digitization and decentralized finance, cryptocurrencies will continue to capitalize on these transformative trends, powering through the headwinds and reaching new heights.
Inflation slowed to 6% last month, which strengthened the likelihood of a 25 basis point increase in interest rates. Moreover, if macro headwinds start easing off, the Federal Reserve could employ a more dovish stance in the future. Those who think they are late to the crypto party should think again, as the sector is poised for sustained gains for the foreseeable future.

Cryptos To Buy: Ethereum (ETH)
Ethereum (ETH-USD) is the world's second-largest blockchain and arguably the most valuable in terms of real-world utility. This is because the number of projects built on the network continues to grow over time, providing incredible stability in a downturn.
Its much-anticipated Merge update went live last year, transitioning from a proof-of-work to a proof-of-stake protocol, significantly improving the network's scalability, security, and potency over the long term. Once all updates are complete in its development roadmap, the crypto could potentially handle thousands of transactions with significantly better security.
Moreover, what gives Ethereum the edge over its competition, is the ability to accommodate other crypto initiatives and support other entities beyond coins, including non-fungible token communities and decentralized application developers. The diversity of Ethereum is one of its major strengths, which will continue to push the value of its network to new heights.
Bitcoin (BTC)
Bitcoin is the head-honcho of the crypto market, boasting a market cap of over $520 billion. BTC became available to the public over a decade ago and has become a household name.
The recent Silicon Valley Bank debacle has thrown light on the vulnerabilities of centralized monetary systems. Hence, it might be time to give decentralization a chance and wager on Bitcoin and other digital assets.
The Ordinals protocol was released in January, allowing audio/visual content to be transferred on Bitcoin's blockchain, adding to its diversity. The update led to a healthy bump in activity on the network. As we advance, the Bitcoin halving event in 2024 could be a major catalyst for the network taking its price to multi-year highs.
Solana (SOL)
Solana (SOL-USD) is a scalable decentralized blockchain network for the development of NFTs and dApps. It is one of the top Ethereum killers that rose to prominence in 2021, potentially dethroning ETH in the above-mentioned markets.
Solana can effectively handle thousands of transactions every second making it one of the fastest networks in the sector. Its native crypto, SOL, shot up to a high of $260, representing a 91% bump from current prices. Once the crypto market goes on a sustained bull run, SOL could start gaining again.
Furthermore, its interoperability with other blockchains offers a spectacular upside ahead, promising to revolutionize finance, business, and other parts of society. Hence, investing in an altcoin is better to place your bets on Solana rather than take a shot in the dark.
