Everyone is shouting that the bull market is here, but can we know that the methodology for finding market Alpha and Beta in this wave is completely different? Here are a few observations:

1) OnChain + OffChain TradiFi becomes the main narrative:

Stablecoin infrastructure: Stablecoins have become the 'blood' connecting traditional finance and DeFi infrastructure, locking in cross-chain flows of stablecoins, APY yield differences, and new types of innovations;

BTC/ETH micro-strategy 'coin-stock' effect: It has become a trend for listed companies to include crypto assets in their balance sheets, and finding quality targets with 'quasi-reserve asset' potential has become key;

To Wall Street's innovation track rising: DeFi protocols designed specifically for institutions, compliant yield products, and on-chain asset management tools will attract massive funding. The former 'Code is Law' has become the entirely new 'Compliance is King';

2) The pure native narrative of Crypto accelerates the elimination of falsehoods:

The Ethereum ecosystem is ushering in a wave of revival: The $ETH price breakthrough will reignite the innovation narrative of the Ethereum ecosystem, replacing the previous Rollup-Centric strategy with a new ZK-Centric approach becoming the main theme;

High-performance Layer 1 strength competition: It's no longer a TPS race, but rather who can attract real economic activities, with core indicators including: stablecoin TVL ratio, native APY yield, institutional cooperation depth, and so on;

The twilight of altcoins: The fundamental problem of insufficient capital momentum exists in the general altcoin season, while some altcoins may experience 'dead cat bounce' trends. The characteristics of these targets include: chip concentration, community activity, and whether they can leverage new concepts like AI/RWA;

3) MEME coin upgraded from a speculative tool to a market standard:

Capital efficiency: Traditional altcoins have inflated market values and exhausted liquidity, while MEME coins, with their fair launches and high turnover rates, are becoming the new favorite of capital, set to capture a significant share of the dying altcoin market;

Attention economy dominance: KOL influence, community culture building, and hot FOMO models remain core competitive advantages, and liquidity distribution continues to follow the attention principle;

New indicators of public chain strength: The market activity of MEME coins will be an important criterion for measuring the overall strength of public chains.
