The current cryptocurrency market presents an interesting situation. The market for Ethereum (ETH) continues, while the altcoin market has not yet shown clear signs of an upward trend. However, market observations indicate that funds from ETH are gradually flowing into certain altcoins. For example, recently, a large ETH holder converted their holdings of ETH into Chainlink (LINK), and on-chain data shows that funds are gradually positioning in mainstream altcoins and popular secondary tokens.
The current market focus is primarily on decentralized finance (DeFi), tokenization of real-world assets (RWA), and speculative activities related to ETFs. The enthusiasm for artificial intelligence (AI) has significantly decreased, and it is recommended that investors refrain from heavily investing in AI-related projects for the time being and instead wait for clear signs of a price increase before making decisions. In the current market situation, the AI sector may not become a major target for speculation, and premature positioning may lead to missing out on other opportunities.
It is worth noting that even during the altcoin season, it is expected that more than 60% of tokens may not experience significant price increases. Therefore, project selection becomes particularly important. When choosing a project, it is necessary to conduct a comprehensive analysis of the team's background, technical strength (it is worth mentioning that most projects lack substantial technical support), as well as factors such as valuation rationality and token unlocking conditions.
In the Ethereum ecosystem, recently outstanding projects include SSV Network, COW Protocol, Lido DAO, Aave, Morpho, ENA, and Pendle. The good performance of these projects is largely attributed to the overall market trend. However, investors should keep in mind the high-risk characteristics of altcoins, adopt a moderate profit-taking strategy, while maintaining a certain position for potential future market developments, and appropriately retain cash to respond to market changes.
