Why Did the Price of Zuga Coin Fall

It is funny how most developers forget the “crypto-economics” of their ICOs. There are two words that make up crypto-economics: “cryptography” and “economics”.

While most developers pay attention to the cryptography part, they hardly pay any attention to the “economics” part.

As a result of which, it is very rare to find a token whose economic skeleton has been properly and thoroughly mapped out.

In order for the token to be decently valuable in the long run, there must be sufficient demand for it but that is not what is usually seen in the ICOs.

What is seen is unsustainable token inflation which largely happens because of flawed economic models and the greater fool theory (more on that in a bit).

The Greater Fool Theory

The Greater Fool Theory is an economic theory that states that the price of an object increases not because of the value that it brings in but because of the irrational beliefs attached to it. Art is a great example of the greater fool theory.

However, because they have been hyped up so much and there so many ignorant investors around, their value increases anyway, and as a result, the tokens face inflation.

So, let’s recap what we have learned so far:

Investors are investing millions into concepts that don’t even have an alpha version of their product.
Investors are desperate to put their money in because they think that ICOs are a way to get rich quick.
In order to cash in on this, developers are creating products more aimed towards ICOs than to give actual value.
Because of the “Greater Fool Theory.” the value of the tokens gets inflated.
If this sounds suspiciously like a bubble then yes, you are right and the thing is, we have been here before, we have seen this play out.




The Two Types of Zugacoin Investors to Loose Money

Those who bought Zugacoin at the presale price are already at a loss, due to the rise and fall, and the calamity Zugacoin is going through now.
Those that will buy Zugacoin because of the personality of the founder Archbishop Sam Zuga. I will just say they are buying it in the name of the Lord lolz.
People have heard about people who bought bitcoins for a few cents, put in a few thousand dollars, and are now multimillionaires.
That’s the purchaser’s side.

On the supplier side, if you see that you can write a white paper, put up a website, put up a Bitcoin address, and people will send you millions of dollars, that’s a very big temptation.

You can essentially get the exit before you’ve built the product. It’s very attractive to some people, and one of the issues is the incentive problem—who is attracted to that kind of easy money.

The Future of Zugacoin (SZC)

Every cryptocurrency project itself is unique, and aim to solve one problem or the other. Zugacoin is wanting to be a solution to many of the persistent issues the continent faces.

No doubt the Future of Zugacoin is at stake and an unpredictable one following the dump tweet advice from influential Nigerians (like Chris Ani and others) who seem to have been in the Blockchain industry for quite a while.

But then should we just write Zuga coin off?

Most, if not all, obstacles to mass adoption can and will be overcome following investment in infrastructure and the creation.

Is Zugacoin a Good Investment

Zugacoin has a total supply of 1 million Supply and that’s a good criteria that signify a coin being good for Investment.

Skimming through their beautiful whitepaper comes with a lot of potentials and uses cases, but are they just bluffing or making false claims?

Well, amidst the slams, rumors, and blackout of Zugacoin, it shows they are on the fence and it is likely to fade away, as the Acclaimed price of Zugacoin will pass through series of years before getting to is launched price of $48k.

Right in this current state, Zugacoin is not a good investment, neither a store of value. There can be no 2nd Bitcoin.

Zugacoin just like every other ICO will also pass through the hardship of low Liquidity, and this is as a result of low acceptance.

Is Zugacoin Legit

The popular question now, Is Zugacoin legit. One of the best results of the cryptocurrency boom has been the rise of the initial coin offering as a way for companies to raise capital.


what is zugacoin

However, this massive explosions of ICO opportunities like Zugacoin has inevitably raised the specter of fraud.

Whether Zugacoin is legit or not Investors looking to buy into ICOs should first familiarize themselves with the cryptocurrency space more broadly.

How does one go about finding ICOs in which to participate? There is no recipe for staying abreast of the latest ICOs. The best thing that an interested investor can do is read up about new projects online.
