Latest DePIN Token Launch News

AAVE has silently achieved a doubling of its Total Value Locked (TVL) to a remarkable $21 billion this year. With active loans, revenue, and fees surging, AAVE is outpacing market capitalization growth, establishing itself as a major player in the Web3 lending market. Over three years, AAVE has secured a 50% market share, driven by stablecoin integration, asset support expansion, and resilience through market cycles. A new fee switch and token buyback proposal, if implemented, could further enhance AAVE's economic model and investor appeal. Despite shifting trading volumes towards SOL, AAVE remains at the forefront of the $ETH lending market, showing less sector-specific risk compared to UNI in the DEX sector. AAVE's growth and strategic moves highlight its dominance in the Web3 lending space, with potential model changes set to strengthen its position as the decentralized finance landscape evolves.

Helium's HNT has experienced a 20% surge, reaching over $4.4, making it the second-best performing altcoin globally after WLD. Analyst 'Agonybeard' on Twitter is bullish on HNT due to its leading position in the DePIN narrative, clear crypto and token use case, and being one of the few Solana-based tokens that funds are comfortable buying. With a circulating supply of 75% and a market cap of $650 million, there is potential for HNT to reach multibillion-dollar levels. Agonybeard also highlights Helium's product-market fit with its mobile phone plan and 5G network, which has seen a doubling of subscribers since late February, indicating growing adoption. Despite being over 92% below its all-time high, the analyst suggests a promising chart and a long road to recovery for HNT.

In Q2 2024, the crypto market saw a 14.4% drop in total market cap, yet certain sectors like meme coins, real-world assets, AI, and DePin showed resilience. Despite Bitcoin halvings, the overall market was poor, but these sectors gained attention. Meme coins, especially 'cat-themed' tokens, were among the top narratives, with blockchain ecosystems like Solana and Ethereum capturing significant market attention. RWA and AI integration in blockchains, along with DePin's innovative approach to decentralizing physical assets, were highlighted. The crypto market's annualized volatility was high at 48.2%, indicating investor uncertainty. Notable events included Mt. Gox trustee moving 140,000 BTC and Germany selling seized Bitcoin, affecting the market. Ethereum experienced an inflationary shift with an addition of 120,818 ETH to its supply. Crypto exchanges showed mixed trends, with CEXs like Binance seeing a decline in trading volume, while DEXs like Uniswap and new platforms saw volume increases, benefiting from meme coin trades and airdrops. The outlook for the rest of 2024 is cautiously optimistic, with improving macroeconomic conditions and ongoing development efforts.

The crypto market is experiencing a calm before a potential bull run, with many altcoins currently undervalued and ready for a surge. Meme coins, once considered mere gimmicks, are now outperforming sectors like Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks (DePin), Real-World Assets (RWA), and AI-driven cryptocurrencies. This unexpected shift has piqued the interest of traders and investors. Among the projects gaining attention is CYBRO, which has quickly reached a $1 million presale milestone, offering investors significant returns with a predicted ROI of 1200%. The platform provides lucrative staking rewards, exclusive airdrops, and reduced fees for token holders. Meanwhile, PEPE, a meme-inspired altcoin, is leveraging community support and existing technology for a secure and inclusive ecosystem, positioning itself for growth in the upcoming market cycle. BRETT coin and STRUMP are also emerging as promising altcoins, with unique technologies and community backing that could lead to substantial gains in the next bull run. WIF Coin, with its innovative technology and privacy features, is another player to watch, as market patterns suggest a possible surge similar to the 2021 altcoin boom.

The Helium Foundation is exploring new possibilities with the introduction of 'subnetworks' that extend beyond wireless capabilities. A Swedish project, Srcful, has proposed to become a Helium subnetwork, introducing its own ENERGY token. Helium currently allows individuals to operate nodes in its IoT network, earning Solana-based IOT tokens convertible to HNT tokens. By investing in a Helium hotspot, participants can contribute to the network and hope for token rewards exceeding their energy costs. Srcful aims to utilize Helium hotspots for a virtual power plant concept, aggregating smaller-scale renewable energy sources to support the energy grid. Households can offer power from solar panels or batteries, receiving ENERGY tokens in return, while hotspot operators are rewarded for managing these energy sources. Srcful plans to sell the energy from the virtual power plant to energy companies or grid operators, aiming to generate revenue. However, concerns have been raised about the complexity of Srcful's business model and the need for contracts with energy-needy operations. Helium Foundation CEO Abhay Kumar anticipates more proposals like Srcful's to come, as Helium looks to expand its ecosystem.
