Celebrity involvement often generates substantial attention, attracting new users to the Solana blockchain and boosting on-chain trading volume. Furthermore, Trump's influence may encourage increased investment and attract developers, fostering greater diversity and innovation within the ecosystem. However, the sustainability of celebrity influence is uncertain and hinges on market confidence and the regulatory environment. In the long term, ecosystem projects on the Solana chain are well-positioned to be the ultimate beneficiaries, making them worthy of investor attention.

A recurring theme across reports from BlackRock, Barclays, Goldman Sachs, JPMorgan, and others is the frequent mention of one term: "AI." Investors seem to be aligning on the transformative potential of artificial intelligence, drawing parallels to the early days of the internet two or three decades ago. This article highlights and recommends several promising AI agent projects. While the mid-to-long-term outlook for AI agents is positive, the recent surge in valuations underscores the need for thorough research (DYOR) when timing investments.

Once considered mere tools, they have now transformed into intelligent entities capable of independently executing complex tasks. A collaborative ecosystem is emerging, enabling multiple AI agents to work together—not just as assistants, but as decision-makers and operators in challenging environments. Technological advancements, such as improved tool integration and personalized memory capabilities, empower AI agents to perform tasks with greater precision and adaptability. AI agents are making waves in industries like finance, healthcare, and education, offering highly personalized services.

VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsOver the past year, the performance of ETH and its ecosystem has been underwhelming, with the ETH/BTC ratio down by 30% year-to-date. However, it's important to note that BTC has faced a monthly-level correction after hitting resistance at $100,000, while Solana's DEX volumes have seen a significant decline. These shifts suggest that capital is starting to flow back into the ETH ecosystem, with whales quietly accumulating assets over the past year. Several promising projects within the ETH ecosystem and on EVM chains are worth highlighting.
- 14:14Jan3 CEO: Bitcoin Price May Be ‘Artificially’ SuppressedSamson Mow, CEO of bitcoin wallet company Jan3 and founder of Pixelmatic, warned at the Consensus Hong Kong cryptocurrency conference that the price of bitcoin could be ‘artificially’ suppressed. Although retail buyers are buying Bitcoin on a fixed basis, there appears to be selling pressure, ‘While both institutional and retail buyers are increasing their holdings of Bitcoin, the price of Bitcoin isn't going up, so there must be people selling,’ said Mow, adding that last year the market saw structural sellers due to bankruptcies and restructurings, but that period has largely come to an end. Additionally, FTX's payoff process has fuelled selling pressure. The company is basing its repayments on a November 2022 price of around $20,000 for bitcoin. As creditors try to realise profits, which could lead to more selling, FTX is selling bitcoin at a much lower price, which could explain the lack of upward momentum in the bitcoin price.
- 14:09One month after taking office, the ‘Trump trade’ is starting to be discarded by traders as the crypto craze fadesFeb. 20 (Bloomberg) -- A month into Donald Trump's second term, the euphoria over everything from stocks to the U.S. dollar to bitcoin is fading, according to Golden Ten. Previously Crypto assets soared as the industry backed Trump, who promised to create a friendlier regulatory environment. But those gains have waned as there haven't been many new developments to continue the bullish sentiment. For example, Trump's campaign promise to create a national bitcoin reserve has yet to materialise, with White House crypto and artificial intelligence chief David Sacks saying this month that an internal working group would need to look into the feasibility of the plan. Bitcoin rose about 50 per cent in the two months after the election. But since reaching a high of more than $100,000 in January, it had fallen to near $97,000 as of Thursday. Scandals involving cryptocurrencies such as Libra have also weakened investor interest in cryptocurrencies, with Matthew Hougan, chief investment officer at Bitwise, saying, ‘There's a very negative vibe in the cryptocurrency market right now.’
- 14:06FxPro Analyst: Crypto Markets Not Yet Attracting Low Buyers and Counter-Trend TradersWith the U.S. Bitcoin ETF seeing net outflows last week for the first time since early January, the closely watched Cryptocurrency Fear and Greed Index has moved into ‘fear’ territory, down sharply from its peak in November last year, which is an indirect signal that the relatively stable performance of the market is dampening sentiment, according to FxPro's Chief Market Analyst Alex Kuptsikevich. Alex Kuptsikevich, chief market analyst at FxPro, says this is an indirect signal that the relative stability of the market is dampening investor sentiment. Most worryingly, the market has yet to attract low buyers and counter-trend traders at current sentiment and market capitalisation levels. Technical analysis of Bitcoin is said to indicate the possibility of a so-called ‘death cross’, where the short-term trend line breaks below the long-term trend line, which some fear could signal a sharp drop in the price of Bitcoin. Bitcoin price once crossed the $100,000 mark after Trump's election victory, but is currently stagnating below that key level.
