[New trends in crypto assets in 2024Q4]
Grayscale Research released the latest list of high-potential assets, adding 6 new blockchain projects: Sui, Bittensor, Optimism, Helium, Celo, and UMA Protocol. These projects cover areas such as high-performance blockchain, AI system development, Ethereum expansion, decentralized physical infrastructure and stable currency payments.
Sui and Optimism focus on high-performance infrastructure. The former was built by former Meta engineers and has significantly improved transaction speed; the latter helps Ethereum expand and build a "super chain" framework. Celo focuses on stable currency payments and has gained attention in Africa; UMA provides oracle services for Polymarket and others to ensure the fairness of the prediction market. Helium leads the decentralized physical infrastructure network, expanding to millions of hotspots. Bittensor builds a global decentralized AI platform based on economic incentives.
In this round of adjustments, projects such as Render and Mantle were rotated out of the top 20. You need to be cautious when investing in crypto assets, as you face unique risks such as smart contract vulnerabilities and regulatory uncertainty, and the assets are highly volatile and are considered high-risk investments. Macroeconomic and financial market developments may also affect valuations, with the U.S. election becoming a major risk event. Investors should consider digital asset investments in the context of their investment portfolio based on their personal financial goals.
