On May 23, 2024, [Navigator Chinese Community] released the latest market analysis report, covering the market trend, market hot spots and other aspects. The following is a detailed expansion of the report:

1) Analysis of market trends:

In recent trading days, we have observed that the market as a whole has shown a downward trend, especially altcoins have generally experienced a decline in price. According to Bloomberg's latest forecast, the size of the Ethereum ETF (ETH ETF) is expected to reach only 10% of the size of the Bitcoin ETF (BTC ETF), which has had a certain impact on market sentiment.

In the U.S., the market experienced a round of correction, partly due to the release of the minutes of the Federal Reserve's meeting, which suggested that interest rate cuts were unlikely in the short term. In addition, the technology company Nvidia released an earnings report showing that its performance exceeded market expectations, and its stock price hit a new high.

2) Overview of market hot spots:

- In the cryptocurrency market, a series of tokens represented by meme coins such as PEOPLE, MAGA, WIF, BOME, etc. have experienced significant price increases. It is worth noting that the current two US presidential candidates have expressed support for meme coins, making PEOPLE and MAGA concept coins related to the US election, attracting special attention from the market.

- Another phenomenon worth noting is that a series of tokens represented by the BN (Binance Smart Chain) ecosystem, such as EDU, BAKE, BNX, HOOK, etc., have achieved a substantial increase. In particular, the announcement by Animoca, the major shareholder of EDU, that it plans to repurchase tokens from the market has further driven the price increase. As the "son" of Binance Smart Chain, BNX has performed particularly well in this round of gains, increasing nearly 10 times.

- BTC rune series tokens, such as DOG, RUNECOIN, RUNES, etc., have also seen a sharp rise. Both exchanges Kraken and BN recently released research reports on rune currencies, which may have had a positive impact on the prices of these tokens.

- The cross-chain bridge STG also achieved a price increase and launched version V2, which shows that the development of cross-chain technology is still continuing to progress.

- On Ethereum’s ZK-Rollup L2 solution TAIKO, 5% of the tokens were airdropped to TAIKO users and the Loopring community. The L2 solution’s ZKSNYC hinted that there would be no “sybil check” during the airdrop, meaning that participants who use multiple accounts would not be excluded.

In summary, despite the overall downward trend in the market, there are still multiple bright spots and opportunities in different market segments. Investors should pay close attention to these dynamics in order to better grasp investment opportunities.
