1. Market Environment

Yesterday, Bitcoin surpassed $71,000 with a 24-hour increase of 2.74%. As BTC approaches its previous high, altcoins are rising. Inscription assets and BTC ecosystem assets are making a comeback, showing notable wealth effects. Meanwhile, the Bitcoin staking protocol Babylon announced it would launch Bitcoin Staking Testnet-4 Cap 2 on June 5, creating high market expectations for its secondary market performance. Investors should keep an eye on updates regarding this testnet.
In terms of market dynamics, spot ETFs have seen net inflows for 15 consecutive days, improving market liquidity. Yesterday, the first leveraged Ethereum ETF in the U.S. was launched, with over $5 million in trading volume on its first day.

2. Wealth Creation Sectors

2.1 Sector Movements – Inscription Sector (ORDI and SATS)

Primary reason: As the BTC ecosystem began to recover, leading the way in the inscription ecosystem, inscription projects like ORDI and SATS saw an influx of hot money and began to rise.
Gainers: ORDI rose by 15% today, and SATS by 5.15%.
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • Updates from BTC core developers like Casey and other project teams: Follow the project team's Twitter, Telegram, and Discord announcements. The Bitcoin ecosystem projects are very likely to share positive news. Staying updated with these news is crucial. As a relatively new sector project, the new asset protocol Runes may generate some hype around the ecosystem.
  • Release schedule of Atomicals' AVM: Atomicals Protocol released the whitepaper for the Atomicals Virtual Machine (AVM), detailing a phased software launch, starting with the interpreter operation followed by modifications to the indexer nodes. Each major advancement could potentially catalyze subsequent market movements.

2.2 Sector Movements — New Assets in the BTC Ecosystem (RUNE, CKB, and STX)

Primary reason: With Bitcoin briefly surpassing $71,000, the BTC ecosystem is recovering, offering speculative opportunities in new asset types within this ecosystem.
Gainers: In the past 24 hours, Runestone has increased by 5%, CKB by 23%, and STX by 15%.
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • Market attention on CKB and STX during Bitcoin's rise: CKB, as a prototype project for the UTXO Stack, is highly favored and considered one of the best representatives of Bitcoin Layer 2 technology. Recently, the asset issuance protocols based on RGB++ has been gaining traction, bringing a wealth creation effect to the ecosystem. STX, using threshold signature scheme Token T, is experiencing speculative anticipation following the Nakamoto upgrade on May 15. Additionally, Bitcoin halving will introduce new changes, further reducing miner income, necessitating a thriving ecosystem to support the transition of income sources. Investors should monitor the fund inflows to the ecosystem to aid their investment decisions.

2.3 Sectors to Focus on Next — AI Sector

Primary reasons:
  • With the recent recovery of the BTC ecosystem and an influx of hot money, the AI sector is poised for a rebound. The upcoming SuperAI conference in Singapore will also reveal new developments from various projects.
  • OpenAI launched its flagship AI model, capable of real-time audio, visual, and text reasoning processing. The release of the text-to-video model Sora by OpenAI in February drove up valuations across the sector. The launch of GPT-4o highlights the importance of maintaining focus on the AI sector.
Specific tokens:
  • TAO: Bittensor is an open-source protocol that powers a blockchain-based machine learning network. Machine learning models train collaboratively and are rewarded in TAO according to the informational value they offer the collective.
  • NEAR: Recently, many AI projects within the NEAR ecosystem are in the development or funding stage, positioning NEAR to potentially become a future AI Hub.
