Data statistics time: July 16, 2024 4: 00 (UTC + 0)

1. Market environment

In the past 24 hours, BTC has been on a unilateral rise, with the price of BTC rising continuously from $62,000 to the current level of $64,500. BTC spot ETF has had net inflows for the seventh consecutive trading day, with a net inflow of $300 million yesterday, becoming the main driving force for BTCs rise. Balchunas, a well-known ETF analyst at Bloomberg, said on social media that the SEC requires ETF issuers to submit the final version of the S-1 document before Wednesday this week, which means that the SEC will announce the approval results next Monday, and the relevant ETF may be launched next Tuesday.

On the news level, BlackRock CEO Larry Fink said on CNBC that I was wrong about Bitcoin five years ago, and reiterated that Bitcoin is digital gold and a legitimate financial instrument. Dell CEO forwarded the interview video of BlackRock CEO and said that BTC is fascinating. Trump appointed crypto-friendly JD Vance as his vice presidential candidate. The most influential KOLs in technology, finance, and politics stand for BTC, and market sentiment has turned optimistic.

2. Wealth-creating sector

1) Sector changes: Meme sector (PEPE, WIF, FLOKI)

main reason:

• Blue-chip tokens such as ETH and SOL began to rebound;

• The market is paying more attention to the Meme coin sector, and there are good gaming opportunities in the technical indicators of the Meme sector;

Rising situation: PEPE, WIF, and FLOKI rose by 26.4%, 23.2%, and 23.1% respectively within 24 hours;

Factors affecting the market outlook:

• Price token trend: For PEPE, the trend of ETH tokens will affect the price of PEPE, because BONK on DEX is denominated in SOL. Continue to pay attention to the price trend of ETH and SOL. If ETH and SOL maintain an upward trend, you can continue to hold Meme assets in the relevant ecosystem.

• Increase or decrease in open interest: The contract data on the tv.coinglass website can be used to understand the movement of major funds. In the past 24 hours, the open interest of PEPE has surged by 30%, mainly due to the increase in net long positions. The account long-short ratio has fallen below 1, indicating that major funds have opened long positions in PEPE through contracts. In the future, we can continue to pay attention to changes in contract data.

2) Sector changes: AI sector (ARKM, TAO, NEAR)

main reason:

• As the overall crypto market rebounded, the AI sector took the lead in rebounding, mainstream AI tokens all rose steadily, and sector funds were active.

• Dell is an active stock in the AI sector of the US stock market this round. The CEO pays attention to and retweets related to cryptocurrency, which makes the market continue to pay attention to the AI crypto asset sector.

Rising situation: ARKM, TAO, and NEAR rose by 10.5%, 5.5%, and 8.6% respectively within 24 hours;

Factors affecting the market outlook:

• Large financing information in the primary market: ETHCC was held in Brussels as scheduled, and participating institutions paid attention to the primary trends of the AI sector. Sentient, an AI Model-related research project, completed a financing of US$85 million, and the market once again paid attention to the effective combination of AI ecology and blockchain.

• Actions of traditional technology companies: OPENAI鈥檚 launch of new products often drives the rise of the AI sector. Currently, this track is still in its early stages and requires stimulus from news to continuously raise valuations in the secondary market.

3) Sectors that need to be focused on in the future: ETH ecosystem projects (UNI, LDO, PEPE)

The main reason is that the S-1 document of the ETH spot ETF may be officially launched in the US capital market on July 23, and ETH ecological assets may have room for speculation. Recently, the track has experienced a large correction and has fallen out of layout space;

Specific currency list:

• UNI: The first DeFi Swap project on blockchain applications. Uniswap鈥檚 average daily revenue in the past was around $1 million, which is a considerable income.

• LDO: The leading LSD project in the ETH ecosystem, with a TVL of 29.6 billion US dollars and a valuation of less than 1.8 billion US dollars, is relatively undervalued;

• PEPE: Currently, it is the most hyped meme coin in the ETH ecosystem. It has a very strong community foundation and is likely to continue to rise along with the ETH price.

According to a recently exposed video, JD Vance, the Republican vice presidential candidate, once fiercely criticized the crypto regulatory policy of Gary Gensler, chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, and said that his approach to regulating the cryptocurrency market is completely contrary to ideal policy.
