And I’ll get you some free tokens plus provide you with more information on how to get started saving on your electric bill.

Keep this in mind back in 2010 Bitcoin was being given away. An amount if you had hung onto
would be worth over a half million dollars today. I’m not saying that the tokens we are giving away will be worth that much someday,  you just never know.
Thank you for your time.

Rally Nodes & Tokens One Billionaire expert believes this Coin will 800 – 2000 X in 2026

You heard me right, there is a great opportunity right now because the price of these
tokens is so low. But as you can see below the price won’t stay that way.*

I just got a question here about what I think about what the price of rally tokens will end up at this bull run or after this bull run.

Simple question is nobody knows of course, but I really think that the guys who were behind the Gala games and were involved in that project really want to beat the number  that Gala did. They plan on using Smart Flow to push the price up. As I understand it as Rally Tokens are sold on the exchanges the Rally Community will buy a number of them to in effect make them scarcer for a time driving the price up. Remember there in only a limited number of Rally Nodes and tokens that will ever be mined.

Gala at its peak went to about $.78 cents per token.

 I think the Rally token has the potential to beat that, to aim for the $1 mark. If everything goes well here and the platform is working and the advertisement marketing and many many millions of users then it of course has the potential to reach over $1.

Me personally, I will not sell any tokens  under $.10 cents.

That’s what I’m doing. As a first goal, I will keep my rally tokens until after the halvening here in about a month. 

I think that the rally token will be very useful and if you get million users, people. The smart flow will kick in and 90% will go to buying up the token on the market. I never heard that’s being done before.

And if you give use case and value to the people in the market, you will get rewarded. So it’s not a pump and dump. They’re building real use utility and they’re building something that will last and help the world to be a better place.

Also the other projects in Connect. They have real use, real world value that you can use to make world a better place.

You have the Grow token Grow blockchain. They put your food on the blockchain that you can track from the cow on the farm to the meat on your plates and many other product eggs, milk and so on. That’s just the beginning here.

I bought some Cow NFT’S as well on the Grow blockchain.
It’s going to be very interesting to follow what’s going on.

I think this is the calm before the storm. Like we have been for many many years. I believe we’re so close. I can feel we’re so close. That’s just my feeling and gut intuition that we’re very very very close to a breakthrough with some of the projects here in connect and if one takes off really takes off eyeballs will come to the other projects as well.

Rally feels like that are the closest one to make a move and get some eyeballs. It’s nice to see that the platform is taking full effect and they’re launching a Reddit product in September.

So this is the perfect timing to jump on board because things will soon start to happen real fast here. I just want to let you guys know my thoughts and I think the potential here is for the Rally Token  to go  to $1 to $1 plus and I met one billionaire on the boat cruise in Fort Lauderdale a couple months back, and he believed it has the potential to reach $2 to $5 per coin Rally token.

I’m talking about next year, of course it’s a very high number but  things in crypto can go fast because the Nodes have only have been online for not quite a year.
Next month only half of the 50 billion tokens will be out. So I think that’s also one reason why it can go real high here in the beginning stages and you have the bull market, you have the influencers that can move the price up.

Jake Paul will promote it and start to market it with his channels, and his influence, and his friends will also have millions of followers.

So we are in the beginning stages here before the storm.
So just hang in there, I’m accumulating every day. My Rally Nodes are working for me and  yeah, I think it will be a very nice Christmas this year for everybody who is involved and yeah, we’re so close. So, just stay patient and buy Rally tokens or Rally Nodes if you can. If you can’t buy a full node, buy some tokens on Uniswap before it gets listed on bigger exchanges. That’s all for now from Cyprus and see you next one.
Ciao.
