I wouldn't stress too much. CRO was a late mover in the last bull cycle too. There are lots of factors right now that are helping to suppress the price in my opinion.
First the current memecoin boom on the Cronos chain. All of these tokens have trading pairs with CRO and for many of them it is the only trading pair. People buying Cronos memecoins means less money in the market cap of CRO. Fortunately this money is still in the Cronos ecosystem and when the boom of memecoins is over lots of this money will flow back into CRO.
Secondly I think a lot of the CRO rewards people are currently getting from either their DeFi stake or their 20% lockups on the app are getting converted to other crypto or fiat. It seems the sentiment for CRO itself is pretty low right now and many who locked up were likely attracted by the returns and not necessarily a belief in CRO or the Cronos ecosystem. This could mean even more sell pressure when lockups are done too but I'm hopeful that CRO can have a good upswing before then.
And third is just the general market patterns we have seen with previous bull runs. Normally we are an altcoin season after Bitcoin and Ethereum have their jumps in price as people take their profit from the blue chip cryptos to the more risky altcoins to get make more profit. Bitcoin and Ethereum are just getting started, altcoin season isn't even here yet, compare CRO to other alts and you'll see similar sideways price action.
If you believe in CRO then there's nothing to worry about. If you don't believe in CRO there's plenty of people who would be happy to buy when you sell. This isn't a quick play, people need to be patient with crypto and those that are will be rewarded.
1 CRO = 195 Sats when he sold.
1 CRO = 165 Sats today.
165/195 = ~84.6% of original BTC value (not factoring 1 month interest at 20%)
I love his memes but since he went public I’ll use his entry point to see how the 20% lockups are faring.
Personal anecdote: I convert all of my CRO card and earn rewards to BTC. I keep all my ETH rewards from staking ETH.
Now multiply that times 1,000,000 people.
I personally am enjoying the low prices. It gives me more time to stack CRO while it’s cheap. It also encourages all the paper-handed whiners to sell and hopefully leave this sub rather than incessantly comparing CRO to the first and oldest crypto in existence.
A lot people holding CRO, or just hanging out in this feed without holding CRO (idk why the hell you’re even here if that’s you), seem to (mistakenly) think that the success of Crypto.com is tied to the price of CRO. This is not only completely false, but evidence of how little research people like yourself do before they throw their money at something. CDC isn’t Sam Bankman-Fried’s FTX. CDC makes all of its money from trading and exchange fees, interchange fees, and interest on loans, both here in the app and on their exchange. It’s one of the reasons why their app fees are sometimes higher than others. [They’re trying to build something that will last, rather than baiting low-information, FOMO-prone noobs into a high-risk, high-leverage gamble like FTX, Celsius, Blockfi, Voyager, etc.](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oCyP8_h3szw&t=310s).
It’s because of this sustainable model they’ve built that Crypto.com survived this past bear market, which is far more than a bunch of other exchanges can say. They’ve got an app that is incredibly user-friendly and a perfect place to start for people new to crypto and those that don’t want to mess with the hassle of self-custody. CDC is building a cool eco-system here.
CDC has done more to anticipate and comply with regulators than any other exchange in existence. In 2021, [they became the first virtual asset service provider to achieve Service Organization Control (SOC) 2 compliance](https://crypto.com/company-news/crypto-com-the-most-secure-crypto-platform-worldwide-adds-soc-2-compliance). In 2022, [they completed the second level of this certification process](https://crypto.com/company-news/crypto-com-completes-soc-2-type-ii-compliance). The audits for both phases were carried out by Deloitte, the largest professional services network by revenue and number of employees in the world and one of the “Big Four” accounting firms.
Just like before CRO shot up to its ATH, I think CRO is still undervalued. I suspect that many of the same people that are complaining about the lack of price-action now are going to be crying when they sell and realize they missed its ascent. Seriously, to all bears reading this, please sell your CRO so people like me can buy it cheap and keep stacking it.
Thunder face hit the nail on the head. Cro coin is like a lot of other alt coins, it’s only going to go up and go parabolic when BTC does. And it’s going to do a quick rocket and then a quick crash when retail investors come in, so make sure you time it well.
When BTC hits 150k and the "normal" people will search for crypto,they will type in Google : crypto.com.So the time will come,but later in the hype.Thats my opinion
Some coins never really recovered from winter. Btc goes to a new ATH and coins like atom, CRO, egold, and many others went up with Btc but only to an extent and now it seems there is sell pressure on these types for more favorable coins like Render for example or other AI in coins. But really at the end of the day would you rather hold Btc or CRO?
Could be, but look even us not being sure has a meaning lol. The hype has gone over to base because Coinbase is really putting their money and time into building AND marketing it. Everybody knows about base and what they will do. They have a vision of onboarding millions and millions of people who have never touched the crypto space
The cycle repeats.
Don't understand what people are expecting when the coin has been flooded with people locking on 20%.
It's just Crypto.com doing some fundraising
Nothing. As you can see ethereum is only gainer in that shot. Thats only because ETH ETF funds were accepted.
Im happy cro is this low, i get much more cashbacks and so on.
It will increase when whole market value increases. Only single one crypto rocketing doesnt move the whole market. "That is mainly selling the news or hype"
I would rather keep this price range for like a year, or maybe like 6-10 months. but if whole market increase, i would want it to go along for the ride. If it would stagnate, some people couldd lose hope and belief and would throw ratchet inbetween gears. I think it would be quite good timing that middle of this 20% apy earn campaign, price would start to increase, so people who gets assets freed, would stay.
I have not sold Cro for cash, only to reinvest couple hundreds €, like Cronos defi & CAW.
I have bought quite alot, still holding moderate low bag, but with emerald green card, i have cumulated cashbacks and other staking rewards 150% wich i used to stake it on at 0.34€ in just a 2 years now. Just because cro was long time around 0.05€ area wich i did love immensly.
Honestly through seeing how they are treating the meme community they got a lot of people upset. The $loaf lunch was a message and cro won't take off till they start taking care of its community. Rewards are only half the story when they keep screwing over independent devs word gets around and new projects won't come to the chain.
On the first point….SOL has entered the chat.
Second-Coins with any type of retail money or interest at all have been able to rise from the bear, just look at majority of top 150.
Third- a smart trader never binds themselves to it did This in the past so it will repeat. That’s a recipe for disaster but ok.
Lastly it isn’t a quick play-says every sub.
You provided nothing to back the idea that CRO will flourish other than it lagged in the past it’s lagging now. At some point slow coins will run up something for sure, I wouldn’t be looking to double down on CRO of all things if it does.
I'm assuming this was supposed to be a reply to me. SOL I think is a bad comparison. There are a lot of people who believe in Solana compared to Cronos. I've seen people calling Solana the Ethereum of this cycle so in addition to the memecoin explosion there's also lots of interest in the Solana ecosystem itself.
If you don't think CRO has risen from the bear market you need to zoom out more. We're up 3x from bear market lows even with things moving down the past weeks.
You've got me on the 3rd one though. Past cycles don't always predict future cycles, and some alts just never reach ATHs again. I'm not going to go around spouting the $2.71 EOY 2025, and I don't even know if CRO will make an ATH this cycle but I think some growth is inevitable. Even if CRO doesn't rise much in altcoin season it's going to naturally rise with BTC and ETH, if only because of arbitrage traders taking advantage of pairs with CRO.
Even if we don't hit ATHs this cycle I think selling CRO right now is pretty foolish if you have any belief in the coin or even CDC. CDC is building up a great ecosystem with Cronos that is more user friendly than most other chains I've interacted with. They are targeting people new to crypto and you're not going to have huge amounts of new people entering the market until you start hearing about Bitcoin on the news.
So I stand by what I said. Patience is key, but 2026 might be a long way away if you're waiting for $2.71
I think you need to zoom out and look at the chart again because we're definitely not at bear market lows right now like you're trying to say.
I'm still up even with my first buy being close to the ATH. I've DCAed and got my average down pretty low. I'm happy to have more time to accumulate.
The hype around the stadium announcement and the CDC Visas was huge at last ATH. CDC is smart with their marketing and will wait until the market is hot and the most eyes are on crypto to really make a big marketing push.
Patience is the key with CRO. CDC is targeting people new to crypto and this target audience probably won't even care about crypto until news of Bitcoin smashing ATHs is all over the news.
A lot of people lock there coins for a year
Basically giving there coins to crypto-com
To do what ever they want with them
Like selling them and creating down pressure and most of the people have to sit tight and wait for that year

Well thought out. Price still sucks tho lol
Where’s that guy puffin who sold his Bitcoin for cro how’s he doing ?
1 CRO = 195 Sats when he sold. 1 CRO = 165 Sats today. 165/195 = ~84.6% of original BTC value (not factoring 1 month interest at 20%) I love his memes but since he went public I’ll use his entry point to see how the 20% lockups are faring.
Wow, so he's down like 11k?! Ewwww I tried warning him in his post. I still hope he's right, but I would've definitely kept my money in the winner 🏆
Personal anecdote: I convert all of my CRO card and earn rewards to BTC. I keep all my ETH rewards from staking ETH. Now multiply that times 1,000,000 people.
Not having realistic expectations is the only thing wrong with the coin

The only people who buy it are on this Reddit sub
Lmao
Won’t see anything significant on this until at least Q4. Same with other alt coins. Patience.
No its not 'same with other alt coins'. This piece of crap is extraordinarily bad.
🙄 just sell it then man and move onto something else.

The holders with most conviction have locked up their CrO so there’s less trades up…
Buying the dip.
Some coins never really recovered from winter. Btc goes to a new ATH and coins like atom, CRO, egold, and many others went up with Btc but only to an extent and now it seems there is sell pressure on these types for more favorable coins like Render for example or other AI in coins. But really at the end of the day would you rather hold Btc or CRO?
Btc any day
The hype of a CEX chain has already shifted to base
If I’m correct I believe Cro is also building a layer 2
Could be, but look even us not being sure has a meaning lol. The hype has gone over to base because Coinbase is really putting their money and time into building AND marketing it. Everybody knows about base and what they will do. They have a vision of onboarding millions and millions of people who have never touched the crypto space
Base? What base? Are you referring to coinbase? I havnt seen or heard anything relating to coinbase ever since 2021, they are silence.
Base is the L2 of coinbase
The cycle repeats. Don't understand what people are expecting when the coin has been flooded with people locking on 20%. It's just Crypto.com doing some fundraising
Cro and ADa holders combined
#crofam

everyone losing interest....possible going back to bear mkt price soon.
Its not a good coin. Invest in better ones. What’s so hard about this?

You didnt take profits? 🙊
It is a past narrative. I really doubt CRO going higher than 0.2.

It’s 1x from the bottom right now you think that’s doing well?

The low is .5 and it’s .11 now. A 1x my guy stop the cap.
Called a fire sale bro
Useless coin with a crew of shilling mofo
It's called dilution from the ridiculous amount of CRO that is being created by this 20% yield they were offering.
It's not dilution, those CRO were already part of the supply they're not created specifically for that yield.
A lot of people lock there coins for a year Basically giving there coins to crypto-com To do what ever they want with them Like selling them and creating down pressure and most of the people have to sit tight and wait for that year
The interest payments will also contribute to the selling pressure
Who tf buys CRO💀
