2023/08/01
the past 24 hours, there have been many new popular tokens and topics emerging in the efdfa3bd-29e0-45e1-a43d-82fff97593b0, and perhaps they could be the next market spotlight.
In Summary:
1.Popular Tokens:
CRV (Token) - Curve has suffered heavy losses after a recent attack, causing its token price to drop for two consecutive days. Currently, the liquidation price of CRV positions on various lending platforms ranges from 0.38 to 0.4 USDT, posing significant potential risks to CRV and the DeFi sector. Several major CEX platforms have seen CRV contract
funding rates reach -0.4%, indicating a growing sentiment for shorting.
X (Token) - An "X" themed
memecoin on the Ethereum mainnet, it has seen a surge in trading volume in the past 24 hours, reaching US$13 million. This volume includes US$5 million from CEXs and US$8 million from DEXs. Bitget announced the listing of X yesterday, and X has seen a 40% increase over the past 24 hours. Risk warning: There are currently many tokens on-chain with the symbol "X". Make sure to check the contract address and risks when trading, or trade on a CEX platform instead.
CAKE (Token) - Just 5 days after the launch of zkSync Era PancakeSwap v3, the trading volume soared to US$10 million. PancakeSwap recently introduced a revenue-sharing pool, enabling fixed-term CAKE stakers to directly share in PancakeSwap's revenues.
2.Popular NFTs:
Firesky (NFT) - FIRESKY is an upcoming RPG developed by the Concept Haus team. This limited-edition series is based on the character lineup of the first season, with a limited number of new characters to be released each season. Yesterday, its NFTs were minted out on MagicEden, and they teased the upcoming alpha launch of their game.
Pandra (NFT) - Pandra is conducting a series of NFT cross-chain interactions, enabling simultaneous interactions with zkBridge and LayerZero. The task deadline is August 20th, and the NFT's transactions have been boosted by speculative investors taking advantage of the airdrop.
Merkly (NFT) - Merkly is a multi-chain NFT cross-chain bridge that connects NFTs to various networks using LayerZero and zkSync. With the anticipation of airdrops on LayerZero and zkSync, Merkly has become a key component in the interaction between zk and Layer0, leading to high interaction data and a significant increase in minting activity for multi-chain NFTs.
3.Popular DApps:
BridgeBase (DApp) - Users need to complete the cross-chain operation of ETH from the ETH mainnet to the Base chain by interacting with "0x49..97e". Users frequently complete cross-chain operations, resulting in an initial accumulation of assets in the Base ecosystem. Risk warning: 1) After soaring a thousandfold overnight, the BALD on the Base chain suffered a drastic crash. Memecoin rug pulls are frequent on the Base chain; 2) Currently, Base has not yet launched an official cross-chain bridge. When using third-party cross-chain bridges, users need to be aware of and manage their risks to prevent large amounts of funds from being stolen.
Vertex (DApp) - Vertex, a hybrid order book-AMM DEX built on Arbitrum, offers unified collateral across spot, perpetual, and money
markets. Vertex has received a strategic investment from Wintermute Ventures.

zkLightClient (NFT) - Polyhedra's zkLightClient technology is fully integrated with LayerZero's messaging protocol, allowing DApp developers to use zero-knowledge-proof technology without barriers. Through its extensive developer tools and community support, developers can easily build cross-chain applications on LayerZero.

CRV (Token) - Due to a reentrancy lock failure, some stable pools (alETH/msETH/pETH) using Vyper 0.2.15 were attacked.
