After experiencing a pullback before Christmas, this year's Christmas did not turn into a Christmas disaster. The crypto market has warmed up across the board, with Bitcoin breaking through the psychological barrier of $98,000, rising as high as $99,487, bringing a 'green Christmas gift' to global Bitcoin bulls.
Looking at Ethereum, the elder brother of altcoins, it is also formidable, leading a group of smaller coins into battle, as the entire market seems to be warming up. Currently, Bitcoin's price has slightly retreated, stabilizing around $98,000.
In the upcoming January market, there will be many narrative aspects to discuss. Firstly, around January 6th, the first batch of compensation from FTX is expected, amounting to about $16 billion. Objectively, most of this capital will flow back into altcoins, as the cost-effectiveness of investing in Bitcoin at this position is not high. The value targets are expected to favor leading public chains like ETH, SOL, and SUI, directly benefiting sectors related to the FTX concept, such as FTT, which has started to see a strong rebound in recent days.
Following that, Trump took office, and with a series of economic stimulus measures and crypto regulatory policies, the market surged strongly. As the strategic accumulation of Bitcoin rises to a global supremacy position from an institutional perspective, Bitcoin has already allowed retail investors to leap across classes, becoming something many can only look up to. Therefore, from the perspective of early positioning, if opportunities arise soon, apart from the FTX concept, the Trump concept and the Musk concept will likely become the main themes in January!
The market is warming up! Six mainstream coins may have an astonishing potential of 100 times during the bull market!
SOL
SOL’s technological advancements and scalability solutions will enable strong growth before 2025. As the developer ecosystem continues to grow and the adoption rate of decentralized applications (dApps) increases, SOL is expected to maintain its bullish momentum.
Solana's low transaction fees give it an advantage over competitors like Ethereum, while its massive developer ecosystem supports the thriving development of dApps. Additionally, high institutional interest indicates that major financial institutions are betting on Solana's long-term success! In the future, you will see SOL at $500!
SOL is currently priced at $180-185; place orders and prepare to hold long-term. Wait for Bitcoin to stabilize, and you’ll surely profit! As long as the direction is right, just go for it with spot trading!
The strength of the SOL chain needs no elaboration; buying pressure has consistently outpaced! It’s a solid diamond bottom; just hold long-term.
AAVE
The leading DeFi project AAVE. Previously, I suggested to VIPs to accumulate at 154! This is a coin I have always been optimistic about, with two of the most promising sectors in the mid-bull market being DeFi and RWA, which overlap. Therefore, everyone can filter for quality projects in these two sectors.
AAVE, as the leading lending project in the DeFi sector of the web3 industry, occupies over 60% of the entire lending market share, with a TVL of around 21 billion. Having survived two rounds of bull and bear markets, its ability to rise again proves that this project is genuinely needed in the industry. Rapid growth is not the end goal; sustained demand creates giants.
AAVE's advantages: the leading DeFi project, lending NO.1, enormous demand in the mid-bull market, supported by Grayscale and Trump’s WLFI.
WIF
Dogwifhat is an emerging meme coin on the Solana blockchain, inspired by the namesake meme. It relies on community participation and trend dissemination, leveraging Solana's technological advantages to provide an efficient trading experience, with potential and popularity linked to community cohesion.
Previously, I recommended a return of about 1.4 times! The current price still offers good cost-effectiveness, so it’s a good time to enter. The concept is a meme under the SOL ecosystem, ranking second in the meme sector by holding address count, with long-term targets aiming for new highs!
SUI
SUI actually looks to have considerable potential as an independent main chain. Its advantages include high performance and a strong rebound capability within the SUI ecosystem. The ecosystem has also remained very rich.
SUI, a MOVE system advantage, meta background, strong US support, public chain technology at the forefront, public chains are the foundation of web3, performance holds the key to stability, and SUI aims to emerge in the competition among fourth-generation public chains.
SUI is performing well, but the ecosystem needs to strengthen. Tether has not issued USDT, leading to poor liquidity, which also means significant upside potential! Gradually investing during pullbacks can reduce risk; SUI still holds great potential for the future!
APT
APT's historical peak was around 18; it is now over 9, leaving at least double the space to reach ATH, while SUI has indeed performed well this year, with its price near the peak, leaving limited space.
APT and SUI are currently the only two leaders of the MOVE public chain; the question of who is the top is not significant. SUI currently has a market cap of 13 billion USD, while APT is only over 5 billion. From this perspective, APT doubling in value would only bring it close to SUI's current market cap, not to mention the potential for overall market capitalization to rise after the altcoin season explodes.
The largest stablecoin issuer, Tether, has now issued USDT on Aptos, while SUI has not yet. When stablecoin issuers choose chains, they definitely consider user base, ecosystem completeness, and the actual usage of these protocols, which also validates APT's strength. APT also offers high cost-effectiveness!
