Chain abstraction/intention track is worth paying attention to.
In fact, large capital began to layout this area a long time ago, but due to the lengthy time required for Infra construction, market attention did not focus on this track.
Previously, it was also influenced by $COW, which saw a 30% increase in price after being listed on Coinbase's coin roadmap on September 18, 2024, and a 100% increase after being listed on Binance on November 6. It has been used multiple times by Trump's crypto project, resulting in a 70% increase in price.
Years of layout by large funds + undervaluation of track projects + narratives not fully exploded, I believe there are multiple buffs waiting for a suitable opportunity. Currently, with the fusion of cryptocurrencies and stocks and the hot narrative of stablecoins, more new users may be attracted to the chain in the future. This track may have more practical scenarios, as chain abstraction/intention is more user-friendly for newcomers.
