The crypto bear market is not over yet. Some crypto- projects I is struggling to stay afloat. However, the projects that will be successful will be the ones that continue to build during the bear market. crypto expert Camille Lemmens, He shares 4 altcoins that he says will emerge stronger from the crypto winter.
The top altcoin is: cosmos(ATOM)
Cosmos Network is the spider in the web. It is at the center of all activities at IBC. This is the cross-chain communication protocol. Currently, Cosmos hosts more than 248 Interchain applications and services on its network. IBC allows ross-chain communication and the sending or receiving of assets.
With over $8.2 billion in real-world financial assets locked on-chain, @provenancefdn is at the forefront of helping TradFI embrace the interchain.
They are now helping institutions build out private zones – powered by @cosmos_sdk, with IBC baked-in.https://t.co/7yDpqyRKG1

Building on Cosmos is done with the Cosmos SDK (Software development kit). They also offer the Tendermint consensus mechanism. Cosmos Hub certainly continues to build. The altcoin also launched its roadmap for 2024. This sees greater expansion and availability. 8 However, ATOM fell from $14 to $7 at the beginning of the year. The fundamentals have not changed, they are as strong as ever. So, this is a great entry point.

In second place is Polygon (MATIC)
Polygon is almost an all-time favorite in the community. They have been in the spotlight almost all year long. Last year ended and this year begins with an impressive list of partnerships. This included major brands, for example: Walt Disney, Adidas, Starbucks, NFL and more. Many of them were looking for ways to get into Web3. For example, with NFT marketplaces. But there is more, much more. The altcoin also launched the zkEVM Blockchain. This is a zero-knowledge scaling solution. Most importantly, EVM is compatible with Blockchains. Their main-net recently had a major upgrade, the Dragonfruit upgrade.
Dragonfruit Upgrade: successful
Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta upgrade + bridge operations have completed successfully. System resumes full activity.
Devs, the list of EVM networks that support PUSH0 opcode:
1) Ethereum
2) Polygon zkEVM Mainnet Beta https://t.co/YEjDhHDD6w— Polygon (@0xPolygon) September 20, 2023
The Federal Reserve also mentioned that Polygon will be huge. As you may remember, ZK technology is critical for privacy. With this technology, you can prove something without revealing important information. For example, this is very important with identity-related information. Another big change for the altcoin is the Polygon 2.0 upgrade. A major upgrade is coming with the introduction of POL tokens. This will be a multi-chain token that you can use across all blockchains.
1/ Polygon 2.0 is a concrete vision to build the Value Layer of the Internet, and expand Ethereum to Internet-scale.
It is a series of proposals for unlimited scalability & unified liquidity.

Third ranked altcoin: Polkadot (DOT)
And we continue with another favorite altcoin project, Polkadot. It is best known for its parachains. Like Cosmos, Polkadot is layer 0, which provides the entire infrastructure. You can compare this to a city. All facilities are underground and provided by the city. For example, water, gas, electricity, sewage, etc. Thanks to Cheddar.com’s YouTube channel for this look at the infrastructure beneath NYC. Layer zero Blockchain also offers a similar infrastructure. But this is for Blockchains.

All other Blockchains are built on top of this zeroth layer. Thus, it allows completely different Blockchains to communicate with each other. These Blockchains have their own tokens. But they need DOT to secure their parachain. Polkadot can host up to 100 parachains. However, this is a flexible number and can be changed when necessary. A big recent event is the introduction of native USDC into the ecosystem. Once again, we see the price of the native token altcoin falling. Still, I don’t see any reason to worry. All the foundations are still in place and solid. Another great entry point.
1/ 🚨 The wait is over!
Today, @circle has enabled #USDC, the second largest stablecoin by market cap, on Polkadot!
Now, every parachain in Polkadot’s ecosystem can access USDC natively without the need of a bridge.

Last ranked altcoin: Solana (SOL)
Solana is last but not least on our list. cryptokoin.com As you follow from , FTX had a hard time after the crash. SOL had a flattering ATH of $259 in November 2021. However, it fell below $10 in December 2022. It now looks comfortable in the $20 range. Solana also has other ongoing partnerships. For example, with Visa and Shopify.
Recently, @Visa Crypto released their technical deep dive covering why Solana was chosen to expand their USDC settlement pilot.

In other words, the altcoin is experiencing a serious rebound. We wouldn’t be surprised to see SOL rise again once the bull run begins.
