By far the easiest way to make money in crypto right now is by narrative trading. Narrative trading is when something big takes place in the world. For example, Facebook parent company changing its name to Meta. This started one of the biggest crazes in crypto we've ever seen, where every single token that had Meta in the name was pumping 70 to 90%. But here's what people don't understand about narrative trading: the narrative won't work unless it's easy to understand by the masses. The metaverse one was extremely easy for people to understand. The gaming narrative is extremely easy for people to understand. AI was extremely easy. Dogecoins were the easiest. So when you're looking for the next narrative, make sure it can be easily understood by the sheep that will just buy the token, you know, because it's popping in the news. So make sure it's easily understood. That's the key part. Here are some easy ones that have potential for the future.
