Helium

<h4>May is in general one of the better months for crypto.&nbsp;If we look at the chart, we can see more green compared to red. Also, I see high green % numbers and low red % numbers. </h4> 
So, that leads me to the question, which coins should you be looking at in May? Well, my team and I found four great altcoins to look out for. 
<h5>1) PARSIQ ($PRQ)</h5> 
My first pick, today, is <a href="https://parsiq.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">PARSIQ</a>. PARSIQ is all about connecting on-chain and off-chain apps in real time. That’s what the team has been doing for a long time. However, recently, a big change happened.&nbsp; 
As you may know, blockchain can’t talk to each other. Smart contracts only work on their networks. Well, not anymore. PARSIQ released the <a href="https://reactive.network/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reactive Network</a>. Smart contracts can now read contracts on other chains. As a result, smart contracts on EVM chains can now talk to each other. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 The next major milestone in the development of Reactive Network is here!

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> 
This has massive implications. For example, smart contracts can now trigger actions on different chains. For instance, during a game on Polygon, you can trigger an action on the BSC chain. So, it’s 100% cross-chain and interoperable. But it’s not only about gaming, it can also work great in trading. For example, with arbitrage. 5 We just released an article about this. Check it out here.&nbsp; 
Arbitrage is when the price of an asset is not the same on different exchanges and chains. <a href="https://www.altcoinbuzz.io/?s=Reactive+smart+contracts" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Reactive smart contracts</a> allow you to react fast and take full advantage of arbitrage options. 
To clarify, with the Reactive Network, you’re not relying on oracles anymore. Everything stays on-chain. All off-chain components, like a CEX or a price feed, become obsolete. This is truly revolutionary.&nbsp;PARSIQ is a much cheaper but very real competitor to The Graph. Remember, we have The Graph in our 50x Portfolio. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 Fully on-chain, autonomous smart contracts are finally here.

The current <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/parsiq" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$PRQ price</a> is $0.1196. It has a market cap of $31.3 million. Of the 310 million max and total supply, already 260 million $PRQ circulates. It’s well worth keeping an eye out on this project. 
<h5>2) Goldfinch ($GFI)</h5> 
With <a href="https://goldfinch.finance/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Goldfinch</a> we enter the world of real-world assets. Goldfinch’s goal is to have financial inclusion for everyone. 
Hence, Goldfinch <a href="https://uploads-ssl.webflow.com/62d551692d521b4de38892f5/631146fe9e4d2b0ecc6a3b97_goldfinch_whitepaper.pdf" target="_blank" rel="noopener">provides</a> credit lines. You can supply your $USDC, and borrowers can, well, borrow it. However, here’s the twist. These borrowers are companies from all over the world. Start-ups in Africa, or institutions in major American cities. The difference is, that they all have access to the same capital markets. 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 Excited to see the live launch of <a href="https://twitter.com/heron_finance?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@heron_finance</a>, open for investment and built on top of <a href="https://twitter.com/goldfinch_fi?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@goldfinch_fi</a>.

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> 
Goldfinch brings the capital market to the user. A major difference is that you don’t need collateral. Instead, with a collective assessment of other participants, they check their creditworthiness.&nbsp; 
BlackRock recently started a multi-billion RWA fund. As a result, RWA projects saw up to 20% price increases in their tokens. This also included Goldfinch.&nbsp;The current <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/goldfinch" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$GFI price</a> is $3.45. Its market cap is $254.8 million. Out of the 114 million $GFI tokens, 73 million circulate. Over the last year, $GFI is up by 545%.&nbsp; 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"> 
 We're thrilled to announce that our community has approved the deployment of the Goldfinch smart contracts on <a href="https://twitter.com/buildonbase?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@BuildOnBase</a> L2! 
 This strategic move aligns with our mission to make the power of crypto accessible to a broader audience by improving user experience and reducing gas…

<script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script> 
I told you already 1 year ago about Goldfinch. With a price of $0.63. So, RWA is in the starting blocks to make it big in the coming bull run leg. 
<h5>3) Axelar ($AXL)</h5> 
With my next pick, <a href="https://www.axelar.network/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Axelar</a>. I’m getting all excited. First, it’s all about cross-chain. Second, Axelar is <a href="https://mapofzones.com/home?columnKey=ibcVolume&amp;period=24h" target="_blank" rel="noopener">part</a> of the Cosmos Hub. That’s my favorite ecosystem. However, back to Axelar. It offers the Axelar Virtual Machine and the Interchain Token Layer. So, it’s a lot about bridging, but there’s more.&nbsp; 
<blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true">

The Axelar VM allows for permissionless connection of new chains. This makes it more than only a messaging service. It is a fully programmable cross-chain layer. The Interchain Token Service allows devs to launch tokens on more than one network. There’s also no coding required. It’s a decentralized and open-source feature that allows for interoperability.&nbsp;However, there are two more features: 
<ul> 
 <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The Interchain Amplifier allows developers to connect new blockchains with a permissionless setup.&nbsp;</li> 
 <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">The Interchain Maestro offers contracts and templates across various chains.</li>

Axelar is programmable, scalable, and secure. Currently, Axelar already <a href="https://www.axelar.network/blog/interchain-token-service-opens-native-like-capabilities-on-15-chains" target="_blank" rel="noopener">serves</a> 15 chains, with more on the way. The <a href="https://www.coingecko.com/en/coins/axelar" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$AXL token’s current price</a> is $1.24. It has a market cap of 795 million. The max supply has no cap, and the total supply is 1.14 billion tokens. Out of these, 646 million already circulated. $AXL is up by 118% over the last year. 
<h5>4) Helium Network ($HNT)</h5> 
With <a href="https://www.helium.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Helium</a>, we are deep into the IoT (Internet of Things) and DePIN. Now, DePIN is all about providing infrastructure. Well, let that be exactly what Helium provides. It offers a decentralized wireless infrastructure.&nbsp;Mining on Helium started in July 2019. However, in April 2023, Helium migrated to Solana. Currently, you can find Helium partners all over the world.

For example, this <a href="https://explorer.helium.com/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">map</a> shows its hotspots. It uses its nodes to connect its network with wireless devices. By building coverage using compatible hotspots, you can mine the Helium tokens.&nbsp;These are:

 <li style="font-weight: 400;" aria-level="1">They are both backed by <a href="https://docs.helium.com/tokens/hnt-token" target="_blank" rel="noopener">$HNT</a> and converted to $HNT.</li> 
</ul> 
There are also <a href="https://docs.helium.com/tokens/data-credit" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Date Credits</a>. These are $USD-pegged utility tokens. They derive from $HNT and you can use them to pay gas fees.&nbsp;However, you can only produce DC by burning $HNT. So, there’s a nice mint and burn mechanism in place.&nbsp;
