SOL Plummets! Blame the Whales? 🐳💰

by

As of the time of writing (which, in the crypto world, is approximately three centuries ago), Solana was clinging to $115.91, down a mere 3% in the last 24 hours. A rounding error, really. The weekly chart, however, paints a more dramatic picture: a 14% decline, accompanied by a monthly drop of over 18%. One might be forgiven for thinking someone had accidentally set the chart to ‘freefall’. This downward spiral, apparently, is perfectly in line with broader market trends and the aforementioned selling pressure, which sounds suspiciously like a euphemism for “everyone is running for the hills”.

High-profile security breaches, a crypto market that couldn’t catch a break, and macroeconomic uncertainty that left even the most seasoned investors scratching their heads. 🤔

Clash Royale Players Feel Empty After Recent Update – What’s Going On?

by

It seems the main source of criticism stems from a significant change in the way rewards are presented within the game. One player commented, “It’s like Supercell is reducing the game,” indicating their concern that the elimination of chests has made the game feel less rich. Previously, players would log in to find timers counting down on chests, creating a sense of excitement. However, with this update, all they see are three lucky boxes, which don’t have the same appeal. Players have expressed that after opening these three boxes, there isn’t much left to look forward to, and many are wondering how this lack of motivation can be reconciled with the enjoyment of participating in battles. As one user put it succinctly, “It’s essentially removing 90% of the gameplay content.

Many users have pointed out these cognitive skills in their discussions.

As one commenter put it, “consider whether that’s the image you want to project as a first impression.” This underscores the lingering stigma associated with gaming in professional circles.
