1. Market Environment

As the cryptocurrency market continued its downward trend throughout the week, Bitcoin fell below $61,000 on Thursday before starting to rebound on Friday. As of May 10, 4:00 AM (UTC), Bitcoin's price has rebounded to above $62,800.
In terms of trading markets, according to DeFiLlama data, the trading volume of DEXs on the Solana chain reached $1.314 billion yesterday, surpassing the $1.297 billion trading volume on Ethereum's DEXs.
In terms of ETFs, the outflow trend continued. Yesterday, spot Bitcoin ETFs experienced a net outflow of $11 million, whereas BlackRock's IBIT saw a net inflow of $14 million, and Grayscale's GBTC had a net outflow of $43 million. Unlike previous weeks, other spot ETFs remained in a net inflow state, except for Grayscale, whose outflow impact has been reducing due to its decreasing asset management size.

2. Wealth Creation Sectors

2.1 Sector Movements – Ton Ecosystem Tokens (TON, FISH, GRAM, and NOT)

Primary reasons: Binance Launchpool launched the 54th project using BNB, FDUSD to mine Notcoin (NOT), which benefits the Ton ecosystem with short-term positive news.
Gainers: TON, FISH, and GRAM tokens have risen by 8.62%, 22.1%, and 17.03% respectively in the past 24 hours.
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • Future price performance of NOT: The positive news of Notcoin being listed on Binance boosted its pre-market trading price significantly, rising 68.77% in 24 hours. Bitget is also listing the Notcoin in pre-market trading today, where users can position themselves early to capitalize upon market opening.
  • Future support from Pantera for the Ton ecosystem: Dan Morehead, founder of Pantera Capital, mentioned on social media that Pantera recently made its largest investment in the Telegram TON blockchain project, increasing attention to the Ton ecosystem. If project financing and product launches can be implemented promptly, the prosperity of the Ton ecosystem could arrive sooner.

2.2 Sector Movements — DeFi Sector (VRTX and LBR)

Primary reasons: Vertex Edge has implemented a new fee structure and has begun to increase the staking rewards for $VRTX, enhancing cross-chain fee earnings. As a result of the significant increase in $VRTX's returns, the token's price has been positively impacted and has risen. Concurrently, following a major sell-off of LBR tokens by a whale, the price of LBR has started to recover, leading to an increase in its on-chain price.
Gainers: VRTX and LBR have increased by 65.51% and 30.61% respectively in the past 24 hours.
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • Future market trends: Trading-related DeFi projects heavily rely on the activity of on-chain transactions. In markets where prices are rising or volatility is high, traders and trading volumes increase correspondingly. Conversely, if the market trends downward, trading volumes tend to contract. DeFi token prices are also affected by a reduction in the overall business volume of the projects.
  • The DeFi sector continues to see new projects with high valuations emerging, and the buyout funds interested in such projects may be limited in the market. Investors should keep an eye on the sector's competitive landscape and lock investments in leading projects, as most others that have launched tokens or ceased development quickly lose traction.

2.3 Sectors to Focus on Next — SocialFi

Primary reasons: Base has achieved tremendous success in the SocialFi domain, with multiple top-tier cryptocurrency-based social applications built on Base. Notably, 46% of SocialFi-related transactions occur on the Base chain. Additionally, SocialFi projects like Friend and Degen have created significant wealth effects. Degen reached a market cap of $1 billion just three months after its launch, creating a wealth-creation myth.
Specific projects:
  • Friend: Friend.tech is a decentralized social platform built on Coinbase's Layer 2 network, Base. It integrates users' Web2 identities via a strong link to Twitter, allowing for monetization based on these identities. In this platform, every user can be tokenized, and their influence is directly priced by the market. The project has already launched its token, with a daily trading volume exceeding $21 million.
  • Degen: Following the launch of the Degen channel on Farcaster, this project issued its token, primarily to enable users to reward high-quality content creators with Degen. The decentralized social protocol Farcaster has surpassed $1.2 million in total revenue and reached over 300,000 users. Farcaster and Degen projects complement each other, and Farcaster is one of the most prominent projects on the Base chain.

Global focus:
Notcoin (NOT): Notcoin is a game based on Telegram where users can earn in-game tokens by clicking on coin images, similar to the "Tap to Earn" concept. Prior to the TGE, "vouchers" represented Notcoin in the game, which can be exchanged for $NOT post-TGE. The project has its own pre-market trading at https://getgems.io/notcoin, showing that 640,000 users already hold NOT pre-market tokens. It is confirmed to be listed on Binance Launchpool and OKX.
Regional focus:
(1) Yesterday, the trending searches across various regions of Asia primarily centered around RWA crypto projects:
The RWA sector mainly consists of U.S. bond products. As the Federal Reserve continues to signal maintaining high-interest rates, RWAs are seen by the market as favorable for the long term and capable of hedging against current market risks. Additionally, HashKey Group has recently joined the Hong Kong Monetary Authority's Ensemble project framework work group. HashKey Group will integrate its practical experience in virtual asset custody, trading, digital payment, STO technology solutions, and RWA tokenization to provide comprehensive Web3 financial infrastructure support for financial asset tokenization including bank deposits and green bonds. This has generated significant interest in the Asia Pacific region.
(2) No significant trends in Africa, CIS, and English-speaking countries/regions:
These regions exhibit a more dispersed interest, with BTC, ETH, and Solana frequently appearing in trending searches. Users are also showing interest in narratives related to AI and memes.
