1)Market Trends
BTC surged and rebounded, while altcoins rose broadly. The market focus has returned to the speculation of AI, memes, and new public chains.
US stocks have risen to new highs. The November CPI inflation data has boosted expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate cut next week.
2)Market Highlights:
1. The AI sector, including turbo, ctxc, goat, act, ai16z, virtual, and fartcoin, saw significant gains. Many AI memes like ai16z and fartcoin have reached new highs.

The logic is similar to speculating on Apple phone hardware before moving on to mobile games and other apps.
2. The meme coin pnut surged and is listed on Coinbase. The space has opened up, and its market cap will likely benchmark against pepe’s market cap of $10 billion. Recently, Coinbase has listed more meme coins and Binance (BN) has added more VC coins.

4. New coins on Binance, such as orca and acx, have rebounded from significant declines.

The new DeFi coin hype has reached a record high, with a market cap of $16 billion.
