HTX Weekly New Asset Review (May 25–31): XLM Surges 78%; AI Sector Rebounds, BSC Explodes Over Weekend—Capital Flows Into These Sectors
HYPE continues to attract funding!
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insightsDuring the last week of May (May 25–31), the crypto market continued its sideways consolidation. Bitcoin oscillated repeatedly within its upper range, while capital kept seeking high-potential sectors backed by strong narratives and liquidity advantages. According to data from HTX, assets with the highest weekly gains spanned multiple sectors—including Perp DEXs, AI, Layer-1 blockchains, and the BSC ecosystem. Among them, HYPE—the leading Perp DEX token—maintained robust momentum; AI-related tokens regained traction; and over the weekend, the BSC ecosystem experienced a concentrated breakout driven by heightened market expectations.
Perp DEX Momentum Sustained; Established Layer-1 Projects Rebound
The most notable theme this week was the continued strength of the Perp DEX sector. As on-chain trading experiences improve steadily, high-frequency traders’ demand for transparency and full asset control continues rising—prompting more users to migrate toward on-chain derivatives trading. Decentralized perpetual contract platforms (Perp DEXs) have thus emerged as one of the fastest-growing niche segments in this market cycle.
- HYPE (Hyperliquid): Up 15% weekly, now among the most representative flagship assets in the derivatives space. Hyperliquid is a purpose-built, high-performance Layer-1 blockchain designed to power a fully on-chain open financial system. With sustained growth in on-chain trading volume, its ecosystem value is being continually re-priced by the market.
- XLM (Stellar): Up 78% weekly—a veteran public blockchain project. The Stellar Network is an open payment network that connects disparate financial systems, enabling anyone to build low-cost financial services for their communities. XLM has been actively pursuing institutional partnerships and ecosystem development in recent years.
AI Sector Regains Spotlight; BSC Ecosystem Explodes Over Weekend
After several weeks of consolidation, the AI sector re-emerged as a focal point for capital inflows. Whenever market liquidity improves, AI remains one of the most consensus-driven themes for investors. Meanwhile, growing market anticipation around Binance’s potential launch of U.S.-equity-related services has strengthened BNB—and further energized the entire BSC ecosystem.
HTX has already fully launched its TradFi section, offering users an “always-on, 7×24-hour U.S. equity perpetual futures trading” experience. The “U.S. Equity Perpetual Futures (TradFi) Trading Contest” is now live: trade top-tier U.S. equities and TradFi assets via perpetual contracts and share in a $50,000 prize pool.
- WLD (Worldcoin): Up 21% weekly. Spearheaded by OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman, Worldcoin comprises three core components: World ID (a privacy-preserving digital identity), the Worldcoin Token (distributed freely worldwide), and the World App. The convergence of AI and crypto remains a long-term narrative favored by the market.
- FHE (Mind Network): Weekly gain of 19%. As a representative project focused on privacy-preserving computation and AI infrastructure, FHE sits at the heart of the rapidly gaining “AI + privacy computing” segment. As AI applications expand, demand for data security and privacy protection rises in tandem—creating fresh growth opportunities for related projects.
- BNB rose 10% weekly—as the core asset of the BSC ecosystem, its rally lifted overall ecosystem activity; Binance Life surged 20% weekly—a Chinese-language MEME project on BSC and one of the most talked-about assets this week.
DeFi & BTCFi Progress Steadily; Emerging Narratives Multiply
The DeFi and BTCFi sectors remained equally active this week. Increasingly, market participants recognize that Bitcoin is not merely a store of value—but also holds strong potential to serve as a foundational asset for future on-chain financial systems. Consequently, BTCFi has become one of the key incremental growth vectors in this market cycle.
- WARD (Warden Protocol): Up 13%. Warden Protocol is a full-stack Layer-1 blockchain built specifically for developers to create intelligent dApps. As on-chain capital utilization rises and yield strategies diversify, the DeFi sector is entering a new wave of product innovation.
- Newly listed ZEST (Zest Protocol): Up 10%. Zest Protocol is a Bitcoin-native lending protocol. As the Bitcoin ecosystem expands, a new ecosystem is rapidly forming—centered on enhancing Bitcoin’s asset utilization, boosting yields, and building financialized applications.
