Blockchain technology took the world by storm, seemingly overnight. While investors are looking for the next 10x coin or “moonshot”, purpose driven companies are finding unique ways to use the new technology and web 3 culture to do good. Historically, small groups of dedicated people with a purpose make the biggest waves. “Using Blockchain As a Force For Good” is a short series exploring some of these projects.
Recently, Artist For Addicts had a stealth launch of Recovery Punks, a Crypto Punk inspired project designed to bring awareness to, change the conversation about and fund addiction recovery and connection.
“The Mission of Artists For Addicts is to change the global conversation surrounding addiction from one of judgement to one of compassion, using art as a force for good.”
Recovery Punks is an extension of that mission; using art on the blockchain as a force for good. The project is keeping marketing and “hype” to minimum and instead using education and connection to slowly mint out the entire 10k connection. The Recovery Punks community has contributed by opening up twitter spaces and inviting the public to join the conversation: a conversation about addiction recovery and connection, which Artist for Addicts believes is one of the most important conversations to be had in the current crypto landscape.
The royalties on Recovery Punks are set at 2.5%, 100% of which goes to Artist for Addicts to continue to find creative and fun ways to educate and change the global conversation about addiction.
The Recovery Punks community has formed a council that will allow them to create governance that can increase the royalties, build a community treasury and direct the project through community contribution and vote.
Many investors will continue to follow the hype, looking for the next big thing. The companies, projects and organizations that are finding ways to use new technology and web 3 culture to have an impact might have the last laugh. Their communities are small, but they are hyper-engaged and the reach extends beyond the early adopters of crypto.
While we will have to wait and see what happens, this is a recipe for massive impact and long term success. An important cause, a strong community, real world implications and a founder with an incredible track record. Our team will have our eyes glued to Recovery Punks in 2023.
Recovery Punks is one of the many projects published by Wolf Den Labs focused on having a real impact on people in the real world.

The bearish position of the crypto market creates chaotic consequences among crypto investors. The rate of the top cryptos is falling increasingly.

During the price decrease, Polygon managed to retain its key support levels very well. After that, the price was increasing again.
Moreover, the partnership with Coca-cola and Disney in Spring and Summer 2022 makes the network perform well with unexpected increasing prices. Also, the layer 2 scaling solution is one of the considerable reasons behind it.

The massive fall of the crypto market hits crypto investors. The first-ranking cryptos like Bitcoin, and Ethereum float in the ups and downs of the graph. Still, the valuable resistance phase has not occurred. Though the Bitcoin bull Michael Saylor’s comment on the Ethereum blockchain has raised a temporary relief among investors. This is the time when buyers can take their planned move. Price falls, which means the supply is high but demand is less. In this circumstance, sellers are expected to stagnate their movement in the Crypto market. But the selling pressure does match the expected graph according to the situation.
Still, sellers are dominating the crypto market even in this massive fall down. The high reducing price rate and stable seller activity leave the market a big concern.
Why Does Elon Musk Sell Crypto With A Huge Loss?
In the context of crypto, Elon Musk’s shocking step must be a considerable matter. Musk’s Dogecoin is sold with a million-dollar loss knowing the consequences! Whole social media contains only one question, why does Elon Musk sell his coin with a huge loss?
Initially, Musk stated that Tesla had not sold a single Dogecoin. Letter the announcement hits the market. It was officially announced that 75% holding of Tesla’s Bitcoin is sold.
In January 2021, Elon Musk has purchased Bitcoin at 1.5 billion US dollars. Whereas on June 2022, Musk sold it at 936 million US dollars. Which refers to a massive loss for Tesla.
It is reported that Elon Musk was forced to sell the holdings to avoid the loss of over 800 million dollars in Q2 of 2022.
Though Elon Musk did not make the price fall responsible for his selling. Rather he blamed the covid19 lockdown situation in China which raised the uncertain value of the amount.
Talking about Bitcoin, it is seen that Bitcoin is retesting one very important level of support. The market was running very critical resistance. The dumb money is already out of the market.
Asian Investors Tend To Sell More :
In the context of the investor’s demography, a massive population is from an Asian country, especially from India! More than 10 crore investors are from India. Which is approximately 7% of the population of the country itself. After India, countries like the USA, Russia, and Nigeria take the position of higher investors.
It is reported that Asian investors ars selling more than buying even in this price-fall market! Selling indicates that the price would increase sooner. Though according to several reports, the crypto price rate is expected to drop more. Then why are the sellers dominating the crypto market still?
To analyze the strategy, it should be discussed the value of different countries’ currencies. As the maximum number of investors are from India, then Indian rupees or INR’s value might be the main reason.
Cryptos are exchanged with Tether (USDT). 1 Tether (USDT) equals $1. But during the exchange in other currencies such as INR, the rate might differ. The average calculation shows that cryptos are 2 to 3 lakhs more expensive during purchasing for Indian investors than for US investors. It means buying is costly but selling will be profitable.
In this price fall market, selling pressure is still there for the anticipation of more falling. Bulk investors are from Asian countries. The country’s currency value is less than the USD. So for these Asian investors, this is a good time to sell. As it is anticipated that the price might fall more.
Conclusion :
The price fall market is now a remarkable concern of crypto investors. Where demand slows down and price falls. Though the selling pressure becomes another concern of the crypto world.
