As late April approaches, the Ethereum ecosystem is about to welcome a key upgrade milestone. The Prague user side will be released on April 21, and the mainnet upgrade is scheduled for May 7. This process not only marks further evolution in the Ethereum technical path but also provides a clear speculative time window for a series of related assets. Projects such as LDO, OP, ARB, EIGEN, RPL, FXS, PENDLE, ENA, as representatives of staking, Layer 2, and modular ecosystems, deserve close tracking.
Meanwhile, PEPE, as one of the strongest sentiment assets in the Ethereum ecosystem, may be a more explosive representative in the expectations of the Prague upgrade. Its liquidity is concentrated, and community activity is high, exhibiting typical characteristics of 'first-mover + high elasticity,' making its short-term focus worth further enhancement.
On the other hand, the hotspots are gradually spreading from the technical level to the topic level. Eric Trump, son of Donald Trump, will attend TOKEN2049 in Dubai, which may inject short-term vitality into the TRUMP sector; the current price is around 8.18, and it is advisable to observe the gaming opportunities at the right time.
On the macro front, important turning signals are also emerging. The recent Sino-U.S. trade frictions have noticeably cooled down, and expectations for new tariffs have basically been realized, with some old tariffs even being canceled. The market's worst expectations have already been priced in, and the direction of subsequent negotiations is primarily reconciliatory, providing support for overall risk assets.
In addition, Canada is about to launch the world's first spot Solana ETF, which will support staking services. Driven by this, SOL and its staking concept within the ecosystem, such as JTO, are expected to become a new focus of capital attention.
Overall, although this round of the market has not yet formed a comprehensive explosion under multiple favorable catalysts, local opportunities have already been manifested. In operations, it is advisable to focus on the main narrative, pay attention to the rhythm of event catalysts, and a light position to test, quick entry and exit may be a better strategy at present.
