The US economic growth remains resilient, but its high interest rate environment continues to have an impact on the economy, and many countries and regions are facing signs of economic stagnation or mild recession. Although inflation has shown signs of cooling down as planned by the Federal Reserve, the uncertain macroeconomic environment has further contributed to the increased volatility of the cryptocurrency market.
However, factors such as Ethereum spot ETF, on-chain data, native application innovations of major public chain ecosystems, and innovations in the TON ecosystem all provide continued growth momentum for the industry, and OKX Ventures remains optimistic about the market outlook.
Continued efforts in multiple fields
According to OKX Ventures observations and research, many areas of the current crypto industry are showing a stable and improving development trend.
At the policy level, the industry has finally seen significant progress in Ethereum ETFs, with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) approving all 19 b-4 documents on May 23. If the Ethereum spot ETF begins trading in July 2024, considering that the asset management scale of Bitcoin ETFs has reached US$50 billion, the scale and purchase volume of the ETH spot ETF will be in the tens of billions of dollars based on market value.
On-chain data showed a slight decline in stability, and Meme became a hot spot on the chain. In May and June, the on-chain transaction volume of Ethereum and Bitcoin was US$390 billion and US$338 billion, respectively, which was still in a downward channel compared with March and April. The supply of stablecoins increased to US$142.6 billion, and Ethereum destroyed 26.7k and 26.3k in May and June, and the Ethereum Gas fee reached 1 gwei at the lowest. Meme-type assets remained highly popular in May and June, with a total market value of more than US$60 billion. Especially on the Solana chain, Meme transactions accounted for more than 50% of the total transactions. On-chain data shows that the industry has bottomed out in stages, and we remain optimistic about on-chain innovation in the second half of the year.
The industry infrastructure is improved and the ecological projects are more abundant. The growth of the number of Layer 2 and the total TVL of the Bitcoin ecosystem has promoted the modular development of the Bitcoin ecosystem, such as Nubit inheriting Bitcoins security DA and Solv taking over the aggregation of liquidity benefits. OKX Ventures believes that rich native infrastructure will be an important focus of the market in the future, such as various AI, GameFi and social ecological applications.
The TON ecosystem continues to grow, with applications and data exploding. Backed by Telegrams 900 million active users, TON has rapidly developed TVL exceeding 700 million US dollars, and there are multiple user applications with more than 10 million users. As a result, we see a new entry point for further mass adoption in the industry, and OKX Ventures will continue to support innovative TON applications.
The security field deserves long-term attention. In Q2 2024, the loss amount of on-chain security incidents reached 688 million US dollars, an increase of 37% compared with the loss amount in Q1. DeFi and public chains are the main targets of hacker attacks. There is still a lot of work to be done on the on-chain security side on the C-end user side, and security tools represented by GoPlus still have a long way to go.
