Data collection time: March 21, 2024, 4:00 AM (UTC)

1. Market Environment

Bitcoin pulled back slightly as the US dollar continued to move higher on the back of a surprise 25 basis point rate cut by the Swiss central bank, somewhat removing the positive impact of Wednesday's dovish tone from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell, which put pressure on dollar-denominated assets. The Grayscale Bitcoin Spot ETF continued its previous trend with $358 million in outflows yesterday, and according to current data published by farside investors, the Bitcoin Spot ETF saw a net outflow of $327 million after IBIT failed to report inflows.
The volume of financing in recent financing events has gradually increased. Among the financing events announced yesterday, Succinct, a Web3 infrastructure company, completed a $55 million round of financing, and Espresso, a Web3 privacy system, announced that it completed a $28 million Series B round of financing, with a more significant rise in market valuation and investment volume.

2. Wealth Creation Sectors

1) Sector Divergence: Fantom Eco (FTM, BOO, ICE)

The main reason: In October of last year, the Fantom Foundation announced the launch of its latest technology upgrade, Fantom Sonic, and the Fantom Sonic Formal Network, scheduled for a spring 2024 release, is about to go live. As a result, amidst the pullback in Bitcoin and Ether and the broader market selloff, Fantom is up a stellar 7.19% in the last 24 hours.
Price increase: In the past 24 hours, BTC rose by 8.2%, ETH by 11.5%, and SOL by 13.2%.
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • Fantom Sonic Upgrade: Fantom Opera includes new clients, validators, virtual machines (FVMs), Carmen libraries, and the optimized Lachesis consensus mechanism, which will dramatically improve the efficiency of the original Fantom implementation, with the obvious selling point of being faster and more powerful than all existing EVMs. performance over all existing EVMs. If the performance is as advertised, then the parallel EVM narrative may take a hit, and Fantom, as a competitor, will be able to reap the benefits of a larger valuation.
  • Valuation restoration of projects on the Fantom chain: Due to the long time in the hot sector and the lack of official cross-chain bridges, the liquidity and trading volume on the Fantom chain have dropped seriously. As a result, the valuation of various Fantom chain native projects has continued to fall. Due to Fantom's heat and the recovery of the coin price, all kinds of projects have started to repair their valuation, but the valuation is still low, so investors should pay attention to their valuation repair and place early bets as appropriate.

2) Sector Divergence: RWA Sector (POLYX, MAKER)

BlackRock launched its first tokenized fund issued on a public blockchain, the BlackRock USD Institutional Digital Liquidity Fund (BUIDL), on Wednesday. Its wallet address has received $53,000 worth of crypto assets after depositing 100 million USDC on the chain, a very symbolic step for BlackRock in introducing traditional assets.
Rise: POLYX is up about 6.36% in 24 hours and MAKER is up about 10.22% in 24 hours;
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • MakerDAO ECO DEVELOPMENT: MakerDAO Founder Rune Christensen announced at his Governance Forum that the first phase of the 'Endgame' program will kick off in the summer of 2024 and will include new tokens, SubDAOs, token economics, new branding, and new user acquisition channels. The RWA board will be further stimulated by the fact that various SubDAOs will issue coins individually and feed the entire MakerDAO ecosystem economy, especially with the upcoming airdrop of RWA project Spark starting in Q2.
  • INFORMATIONAL IMPACT: Nature's Miracle Holding Inc (NASDAQ Global Market: NMHI; NASDAQ Capital Market: NMHIW), a vertical agricultural technology and infrastructure company, has finalized a strategic partnership with CycleX, an industry-innovating RWA platform, according to PR Newswire. In the future, we can continue to pay attention to the dynamics of traditional organizations, which are highly correlated, and their acceptance of RWA's new cooperation model is also an important indicator for the future development of the RWA segment.

3) Subsequent boards to focus on: Aptos ecology (THL, DOODOO)

Main reason: Aptos on-chain data has risen rapidly since the start of 2024. TVL 2024 has tripled since the start of the year and is now at an all-time high of $400 million, with daily interactions up 65% and active users up 93%. The Aptos token price has a lot of room to rise and is one of the few Layer1 new public chain projects that has not yet recovered its 2023 high, and the project has not yet launched a large number of ecological incentives, so there is room to continue to rise.
Specific token list:
  • THL: Thala is a Defi infrastructure consisting of an over-pledged stablecoin + Swap + Launchpad + RWA. It meets the high-frequency and daily needs of most users of DeFi. On March 14, Thala announced that it would adjust its THL emissions and reduce THL emissions by 50% in all subsequent epochs to maintain long-term health, and Thala's volume and price are now up 194.4% in a single month.
  • DOODOO: The first meme token on Aptos and currently the most traded meme token. Prices rose rapidly in just one month, up 281.14% in a single month. Currently valued at just $73.36 million, the leading meme token on a public chain still has a lot of upside.
