The crypto industry has enjoyed one of its most successful 12 months since Satoshi published the Bitcoin whitepaper in the aftermath of the 2008 financial crisis. Bitcoin hit a new all-time high of $109,000 on January 20th as optimism around a shift in the regulatory position in the United States spurred bullish sentiment.
Many analysts and experts believe that the crypto bull run is only just getting started. The combination of institutional adoption, primarily through ETFs, combined with the SEC's new appointment being a known crypto bull, could potentially position crypto as a well-established asset across all major financial markets.
As mainstream adoption grows, so do the number of new crypto users and overall trading volumes. Data from CoinGecko shows that daily trading volumes have at times exceeded $400 billion, and millions of new users have become involved in the altcoin market.
This new era in crypto will also require new tools and solutions. One major aspect is the need for a DeFi ecosystem that caters to the needs of the market with speed, security, and transparency.
The R0AR team is building this ecosystem by providing a decentralized finance platform where users can access everything they need, from a decentralized exchange and yield farming tools to NFTs and even a research portal.
2025: A Watershed Year For Crypto and DeFi
The total capitalization of the cryptocurrency market has pushed well above $3.5 trillion. It's worth looking back at this point and remembering that in 2022, at the depths of the bear market, the overall capitalization slipped below $1 trillion, and many critics claimed that crypto was dead.
Far from dead, the market has turned around and reached new all-time highs. Millions of users are trading crypto across dozens of exchanges, and DeFi solutions have built up billions of dollars in total value locked.
The Bitcoin rally has partly been driven by changes in the potential regulatory landscape in the United States. After years of hostility from the SEC, the appointment of Mark T. Uyeda as acting SEC commissioner has given bulls momentum based on predictions about future regulatory changes.
Trading volumes have been hitting new all-time highs as well, with billions of dollars worth of crypto assets changing hands every day. This surge in activity reflects the growing interest in cryptocurrencies and the increasing demand for DeFi services.
This growth will likely lead to continued demand for DeFi tools and decentralized exchanges that focus on providing security, on-and-off ramps, and true decentralization. As the market expands and matures, users will seek platforms that offer a safe, user-friendly, and truly decentralized environment for managing digital assets.
R0AR's Role In Onboarding The Next Billion Crypto Users
The R0AR team sees their vision as central to onboarding the next generation of DeFi users. The project's launch has been timed seemingly perfectly to meet the possible surge in demand that will accompany the bull run.
The R0AR vision is rooted in the principles of decentralization, transparency, and self-custody, echoing the ideals laid out by Satoshi Nakamoto in the Bitcoin whitepaper. The team recognizes the growing concern that centralization has found a foothold in the crypto space, threatening the very foundation of blockchain technology.
The R0AR DeFi ecosystem will unify all the most important features of blockchain technology without falling into the trap of centralization. This includes a DEX for secure and transparent trading, the R0AR Portal, yield farming opportunities for earning rewards, and a decentralized NFT marketplace.
R0AR also plans to integrate simple on-and-off ramps, making it easy for users to enter and exit the crypto market. The platform's focus on self-custody ensures that users maintain full control over their assets and private keys, enhancing security and trust.
The early adopters who participated in the presale and Executive R0AR Society (ERS) NFT mint will be rewarded as the platform captures its market share of the trading volume. This incentivizes early participation and community building, creating a loyal user base that will contribute to the long-term success of the R0AR ecosystem.
The R0AR NFT Collection and Presale Surge Into The New Year
The R0AR ERS NFT collection and token presale have shown the power of the vision driving R0AR forward. The R0AR token presale has raised over $4 million without involving VCs, while over 3,400 NFTs have been minted on OpenSea. It's worth noting that every cent invested in the token presale has been locked in a Gnosis safe, ensuring that it provides maximum value to early investors once the Token Generation Event (TGE) is completed.
These two major milestones are just the start of the R0AR community's expansion into a group that will directly benefit from the success of the R0AR ecosystem. The project's commitment to decentralization, transparency, and community ownership has resonated with a growing number of individuals who believe in the potential of DeFi.
The NFT mint is still underway, and anyone can mint up to 25 NFTs per wallet for 0.014 ETH per token. The presale is in its second-to-last phase, with tokens priced at $0.01. Once this stage is closed, the price will rise to $0.025.
