1. Ethereum (ETH): The leader in smart contracts, with an ecosystem explosion imminent.
Core Highlights: Ethereum's spot ETF has been approved in May 2024, institutional holdings continue to rise, and the total market cap has exceeded $400 billion.
Technical Upgrade: The 'ProgPoW' upgrade will be completed in Q2 2025, addressing high Gas fees and promoting a second explosion in the DeFi and NFT ecosystems.
Target Expectation: Standard Chartered Bank predicts that Ethereum is expected to break $5,000 within the year, with a price increase potential of over 48%.
2. Bittensor (TAO): Decentralized AI computing power network.
Track Trend: Under the trend of AI and blockchain integration, Bittensor has built the first decentralized machine learning protocol, led by a16z and Sequoia Capital.
Ecosystem Progress: The 'AI Model Trading Market' will be launched in March 2025, allowing users to participate in computing power allocation by staking TAO tokens, with an annual yield of 22%.
Market Cap Potential: Currently valued at only $12 billion, if the AI sector explodes, it could replicate the hundred-fold myth of Goatseus Maximus (MEME coin) in 2024.
3. Ripple (XRP): A giant in cross-border payments, with the negative impact of the lawsuit fully priced in.

4. Fetch.ai (FET): Autonomous economic agent platform.
Technical Barriers: Combining AI agents and blockchain to achieve automated decision-making in supply chain and logistics scenarios, and pilot collaborations with BMW and Siemens.
Token Economy: The 'burn mechanism' will be launched in Q1 2025, with 30% of each transaction fee used to burn FET, and the deflationary model will help boost value.
Market Heat: Coinbase has added FET perpetual contracts, and the open interest in derivatives has increased by 180% within a week, attracting significant fund attention.
