ETH will drive the Ethereum ecosystem's altcoins to emerge from a trending market

Summarizing Ethereum ecosystem altcoins

There are too many coins, let's pick a few valuable ones

Everyone can lay low

ETH layer2

ARB, OP, ZK, STRK, METIS, IMX

As ETH aims to become the global computer, Layer2's mission is to support the prosperity of the ETH ecosystem with high TPS and low GAS. ARB, OP, and STRK, as three of the four kings, all have a FDV exceeding 10 billion USD.

ETH staking/re-staking

LDO, SSV, ETHFI, EIGEN

LSD protocols mainly emerged after the ETH Shanghai upgrade transitioned from POW to POS, providing node-related staking services. LDO is the largest service provider, with the highest TVL in the network, and a circulating market cap of 800 million. SSV is a relatively important infrastructure.

ETH established DEFI

UNI, SUSHI, AAVE, COMP, CRV, MKR

DEFI is something everyone is most familiar with. As the largest innovative sector in the last bull market, DeFi applications have permeated all aspects of on-chain daily life. Due to the maturity of DeFi, this cycle is mostly based on previous upgrades, and the level of innovation is somewhat lacking.

ETH meme

PEPE, NEIRO

Meme is a very strong sector in this bull market, holding a small amount is not a problem.

Others

PENDLE

Pendle separates tokens into principal and interest for trading future earnings. Pendle has recently seen both TVL and coin price soaring, making it a relatively innovative ETH DEFI project.

ETHS

ETHS is the token of the Ethscriptions protocol, which stores data via calldata, significantly reducing Gas fees.

Low cost: Gas fee is only $0.05, breaking the limit of high transaction costs.

Concise functionality: Focused on text and image storage, especially suitable for NFT creators.

Scarcity: Fixed supply of 21 million tokens, with great potential for future growth.
