It seems everyone is looking forward to 2025, for market reasons, for trending reasons. Project parties, retail investors, KOLs, VCs... everyone is ready to go all out.
I am one of them. But I start to be cautious; when everyone wants to go all out, how can I ensure that I am not 'being' swept up in it.
Looking back at 2024, I hope that in 2025, what I engage with and create will be real and have positive value for the industry.

AI has completely overturned my thinking.
As a professional writer, I have put over 10,000 hours of effort into my writing.

Skills I have honed over a lifetime now seem as common as oil, tape, or hemp – ubiquitous, cheap, and easily replaceable. This has led me to question: who am I? Where do I come from? Where am I going? While I continue to seek answers, I will delve deeper into these questions in the following predictions.

A Bitcoin strategy that has attracted global attention
In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic triggered a global liquidity crisis, with countries adopting loose monetary policies to stimulate the economy, leading to currency devaluation and increased inflation risk.

Horizontal Comparison of Four Major Crypto×AI Frameworks: Adoption Status, Strengths and Weaknesses, Growth Potential
Original text: Deep Value Memetics; Translator: Azuma
Key points overview
In this report, we discuss the development landscape of several mainstream frameworks in the Crypto & AI field. We will examine the four major frameworks — Eliza (AI16Z), G.A.M.E (GAME), Rig (ARC), and ZerePy (ZEREBRO), analyzing their technical differences and development potential.
In the past week, we analyzed and tested the above four frameworks, and the summary of conclusions is as follows.
We believe Eliza (approximately 60% market share, valued at about $900 million when the original author wrote, approximately $1.4 billion at the time of publication) will continue to dominate market share. Eliza's value lies in its first-mover advantage and accelerated adoption by developers, as evidenced by 193 contributors, 1,800 forks, and over 6,000 stars on GitHub, making it one of the most popular software libraries on GitHub.
