Crypto Market Dynamics and Hot Project Analysis

1. Market Highlights

1. Market Trends

(1) Macro Environment

A well-known financial media outlet published a column commenting on a political figure's issuance of a meme coin, suggesting that it could trigger a constitutional crisis. The article pointed out that although the new SEC chairman may introduce crypto-friendly policies, fundamental legal principles will not change, and the personal preferences of regulatory agency leaders cannot override existing securities laws.

The structure and timing of this digital token project have raised concerns about the fusion of personal interests and political power. The concentration of token ownership in companies associated with the political figure, coupled with the timing of the issuance right before the inauguration, has led to doubts about whether they truly support encryption innovation.

(1) macro environment

The Busan police in South Korea have disclosed that a criminal gang led by a former professional football player has been charged with laundering money for gambling websites through a fake encryption trading platform, involving up to 1.1 trillion Korean won. The gang processed gambling funds using false trading platforms and multiple bank accounts from January 2022 to September 2023, and made a profit of about 10 billion Korean won by charging transaction fees. Investigations also found that the gang used deepfake technology to lure minors into gambling. Currently, several individuals have been arrested or are facing prosecution.

(2) Web3 field

A certain social growth layer platform announced that it will collaborate with an international payment agency to launch a cross-border encryption asset payment card, aimed at promoting the application of encryption assets in daily life. The payment card will cover areas such as clothing, food, housing, transportation, cross-border transfers, and DeFi services, and will introduce high-quality Web3 projects within the platform's ecosystem to provide users with value-added rights and airdrop opportunities. This initiative aims to bridge the gap between encryption assets and real-world applications, providing users with secure and inclusive financial services.

3. Hot Topics Narrative

Recently, a well-known political figure and their family members have successively launched personal meme coins, causing a market frenzy. According to data, the political figure's token increased by more than 15,000% within 12 hours, with a market cap approaching 80 billion dollars at one point. Subsequently, the tokens launched by their family members also quickly surpassed 5 dollars, with a market cap exceeding 5 billion dollars.

However, this series of token issuance activities had a huge impact on the market. The tokens of the former plummeted by 60% within 30 minutes after the latter was launched, while other mainstream crypto currencies also saw significant declines. Analysts believe this reflects the market's frenzied pursuit and rapid shift regarding this family's encryption currency.

It is worth noting that the family holds 80% of the total supply of the first token through its company, which means their selling behavior could have a significant impact on the market. Although the performance of these tokens is eye-catching in the short term, analysts warn that high volatility and speculation could pose risks, and investors should approach such meme coins with caution.
