Data collection time: April 30, 2024, 4:00 AM (UTC)

1. Market Environment

Yesterday, BTC saw a modest rebound, with its price rising from $61,700 to $63,700. The market's hotspots were dispersed, and there was no significant wealth effect observed. An important project in the ETH ecosystem, EigenLayer, announced a token launch and airdrop, leading to funds flowing back into the ETH ecosystem. The ETH/BTC exchange rate broke above 0.05. There was no clear sector that dominated market interest; the community focused on projects within the Restaking+DeFi sector but remained cautious overall.
The spot BTC ETF officially began trading in Hong Kong, with relatively ideal trading volume, and the Asia-Pacific funds paying close attention to its subsequent trend. The U.S. 10-year Treasury yield peaked and fell back, and the U.S. dollar index dropped before rebounding, benefiting the risk markets. All three major U.S. stock indices have risen, providing a certain boost to the crypto market. The market is focusing on the results of the Federal Reserve's interest rate meeting on May 1, with a near-unanimous consensus that interest rates will not be cut, thus attention is particularly on Chair Powell's subsequent remarks.

2. Wealth Creation Sectors

2.1 Sector Movements – DePIN Sector (HNT and MOBILE)

Primary reasons: 1. Helium’s COO Scott Sigel recently discussed the DePIN concept at Blockworks, explaining how Helium helps solve connectivity issues; 2. The community recently voted on a new sensor deployment plan, garnering significant attention.
Gainers: HNT rose 40% over three days, with MOBILE seeing a 30% increase.
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • Futures data: Utilize the tv.coinglass to understand the direction of major funds, monitor futures data, especially the increase in net long positions. Check if there is a rise in open interest (OI) and trading volume. If so, it indicates increased bullish buying, suggesting that holdings can be maintained.
  • Actions by project teams: Follow the project teams' Twitter, Telegram, and Discord announcements. HNT is actively developing in the DePin sector. It is crucial to monitor these news to decide whether they signal profit-taking or long-term benefits.

2.2 Sector Movements — New Memecoins (BONK and PEPE)

Primary reasons: 1. The market experienced a pullback yesterday, with a change in trading sentiment and a rise in memecoins.; 2. A16Z refuted the existence of memecoins, which led to community backlash and pushed memecoins into the spotlight.
Gainers: Both BONK and PEPE saw increases in trading volume and price, outperforming the broader market.
Factors affecting future market conditions:
  • Whether native token price continues to rise: Many memecoins on Solana are priced in SOL. An increase in SOL's price directly boosts the value of Solana-based memecoins. If the price of SOL continues to rise, the memecoin season on Solana is likely to maintain its popularity.
  • Cryptocurrency market sentiment: Yesterday, the market experienced a slight rebound, with funds beginning to circulate, and the wealth effect extending its benefits to the memecoin sector. If this upward movement continues, it would be wise to keep an eye on the memecoins.

2.3 Sectors to Focus on Next — AI Sector

Primary reasons: The AI sector is quite active in the primary market, with decentralized computing platforms like io.net recently launching points systems indicating their tokens might go live soon. These developments attracted high market attention, leading to high valuations in the primary market.
Specific tokens:
  • ARKM: Arkham is a blockchain analytics platform that utilizes artificial intelligence to analyze blockchain and on-chain data.
  • NEAR: Recently, many AI projects within the NEAR ecosystem have been fundraising, positioning NEAR to potentially become a future AI Hub.
