1. Market environment
In the past 24 hours, BTC briefly broke through $61,000, and the current box fluctuates between $59,000 and $61,000. The intraday amplitude has narrowed significantly, indicating that the staged rebound may encounter pressure. ETH briefly broke through $2,700, and the weekly capital flow of Ethereum spot ETF achieved positive growth for the first time, with a net inflow of 31,500 ETH last week, equivalent to $75.07 million. This round of capital inflow was mainly driven by Blackrock, which has purchased a total of $168.55 million worth of ETH. In terms of the market, the top blue-chip public chain sector has risen steadily in the past 7 days. At the same time, the number of Bitget Wallet users has exceeded 30 million, and the number of downloads in July has exceeded Metamask. Investors can continue to pay attention to BWBs performance in the future.
Macroeconomically, the increase in U.S. producer prices in July was lower than expected, with the PPI in July unchanged from the previous month. The more closely watched CPI data will be released on Wednesday, and the index is expected to show a slight increase. Against the backdrop of fading inflationary pressures, weak employment data in July prompted economists to expect the Federal Reserve to make a series of interest rate cuts starting next month. According to CMEs Fed Watch data, the probability of the Federal Reserve cutting interest rates by 25 basis points in September is 50.5%, and the probability of cutting interest rates by 50 basis points is 49.5%.
2. Wealth-creating sector
1) Sector changes: blue chip public chain sector (FTM, APT, TON)
main reason:
The new public chain sector has been falling and consolidating for a long time. In the environment of oversold market rebound, it has been the first to attract the attention of funds; ETH has been too weak recently, and institutions have frequently sold ETH in the secondary market. Funds have a consensus on the layout of new public chains; at the same time, Aptos has launched the second Tapos game, which can be used on browsers and TG, and has received a lot of attention recently;
Rising situation: FTM, APT, and TON rose by 5%, 9%, and 6% respectively in the past 24 hours;
Factors affecting the market outlook:
TVL continues to rise: According to DefiLlama data, Aptos TVL exceeded $400 million, a record high. At the same time, the total locked-in amount of TON ecosystem exceeded $80 million, also a record high, which is 4 times the TVL value in early March. In the future, we can continue to pay attention to the changes in TVL of each ecosystem, and maintain capital inflow to continue investing in the top public chains.
Ecosystem construction continues to gain momentum: Recently, OKX Ventures and Aptos Foundation, a global blockchain leader, announced that they will jointly launch a new fund of US$10 million to support the growth of the Aptos ecosystem and the widespread adoption of Web3.
2) Sector changes: RWA sector (ONDO, Pendle)
main reason:
The RWA sector is still the most popular sector in the current cryptocurrency industry, and is considered to have a large market size. ONDO and Pendle occupy the RWA treasury tokenization track and the crypto asset interest rate swap market track respectively. The asset volume ceiling of these two tracks is extremely high, and the protocol income that the protocol can generate increases with the growth of asset volume. Investors should pay special attention to each round of market rebound.
Rising situation: ONDO and Pendle rose by 3.4% and 6% respectively in the past 24 hours;
Factors affecting the market outlook:
Total asset size of the protocol: The cash flow output of this type of protocol mainly depends on the asset size of the protocol. As the asset size accommodated by the protocol gradually increases, the income that the protocol can generate will also gradually increase, and the corresponding currency price will also have a strong performance.
Policy impact: As the cryptocurrency industry gradually passes various legislations and social recognition gradually increases, policies that are favorable to this track will also be one of the main factors for the rise of tokens in this track. As more asset management giants enter this field, I believe that the subsequent development of this field will steadily improve.
3) The sectors that need to be focused on in the future: Bitget platform coins (BGB, BWB)
main reason:
Bitget recently announced that in order to help the long-term development of Bitget Token (BGB) and enhance the rights and interests of BGB holders, Bitget will upgrade the token smart contract and expand the use of BGB in decentralized applications such as DeFi, DEX, and GameFi. The number of Bitget Wallet users exceeded 30 million, and the number of downloads in July exceeded Metamask, making the market optimistic about the rise in the price of the currency.
Specific currency list:
BGB: Bitget platform currency, the smart contract of the token will be upgraded recently. In the future, BGB will be deeply integrated into the development of DeFi, DEX, Gamefi and other applications. The potential demand for BGB may surge in the future, so it is recommended to pay close attention.
BWB: Bitget Wallet token, with a total market value of only US$500 million. The wallet track has good growth potential in the future and is suitable for long-term holders.

1) Popular Dapps
Pump.fun:
According to DefiLlama data, Solana meme coin platform Pump.funs protocol revenue in July reached 28.73 million US dollars, a record high.

In the past three months, the Solana meme coin platform pump.funs fee account has converted a total of 222,073 SOLs into 35.54 million USDCs, with an average price of 160 US dollars. As pump.funs popularity also means that the meme token transactions on the Solana chain have entered a white-hot state, the marginal income and wealth effect of the god disk are decreasing.

This distribution officially reserves 10 million Gold for existing DApps on the Blast mainnet and 1 million Gold for newly launched DApps.
