➥ Everyone is staring at AI coins and perps right now I get it, I’m here grinding them too, they’ve been the only things actually moving in a choppy market But if you zoom out, something more important is happening that liquidity in crypto is being rebuilt from the ground up and most people are still trading the surface, not the pipes 1/ What’s actually working in 2026 so far? I break the market into where real flows are going, aside with just narratives: - AI → attention + speculative + early revenue = $TAO, $VIRTUAL, $RENDER - Perps → trader liquidity + fees = $HYPE - RWAs → real yield + institutional capital = $ONDO, $SKY - Stablecoins → settlement layer = @tempo, $XPL, $ENA Different narratives, same underlying question of where does liquidity sit, and who controls it? Because based on my real experience, the best performer is a liquidity model Take @HyperliquidX as an example: ppl think it’s winning because of perps, I think it’s winning because it solved something deeper: - onchain orderbook that actually feels like a CEX with deep liquidity without relying on fragmented LPs - sticky pro traders & generates real fees - the hardest liquidity to win That said, $HYPE is how liquidity infra done right Same with @opentensor, but from a different angle that it turned compute into a market Liquidity is now intelligence + resources, and all Subnets = specialized liquidity pools for AI Different vertical, same pattern with whoever structures liquidity best → captures the entire category 2/ Why RWAs feel boring but matter more than people think? I’ve been paying more attention to @OndoFinance lately, because it sits where real money is entering crypto this cycle - Tokenized Treasuries & Private credit onchain - Yield that institutions actually recognize So as far as I witness, Crypto is no longer just trading liquidity, but starting to absorb global liquidity And RWAs are the bridge Ethereum holding the majority of RWA TVL isn’t random It’s where compliance is easier to layer, liquidity is deepest and institutions are most comfortable $ONDO is basically playing what if BlackRock flows came onchain… where would they go first? That’s why I see it as underrated imho The real game = Liquidity layers stacking on top of each other, only few looking at this angle cuz this is kinda boring What’s interesting is how these narratives are starting to connect: → Perps are expanding into RWA markets with the support of commodities, rates, etc. → AI needs compute such as GPU, CPU → priced + traded like assets → Stablecoins are becoming the default settlement rail → RWAs bring in external yield → anchors the system of all above sectors into one single liquidity layer This is a full-stack liquidity system forming with - stablecoins as base money - RWAs as yield layer - Perps/DEXs as trading layer - then AI/DePIN as resource markets My underrated bet is $ONDO as the top pick, but also the DePIN as liquidity infra DePIN = turning real-world resources into liquid, tradable markets so now I see GPUs as AI liquidity, Storage as data liquidity, Wireless as connectivity liquidity and Sensors/energy as real-world data liquidity And here’s the part that trigger my fomo nerve as AI, RWAs, and even perps all depend on this DePIN layer eventually → AI needs compute (DePIN) → RWAs need data/oracles (DePIN) → Perps need low-latency infra (DePIN) I think it’s the invisible backbone nodody realizes yet So I’m looking back at the market as a whole right now and see: - $HYPE already moved, liquidity capture is obvious here - $TAO already moved, AI hype + revenue will push it further - RWAs and DePIN still feel under-owned and haven’t move an inch yet This is where I’m positioned mentally for the cycle Not chasing the loudest charts but tracking where liquidity is getting harder to move once it arrives

@xCryptoAlucard @MidnightNtwrk exciting! let's see the adoption

👉🏻 @MidnightNtwrk is officially live as the first fourth gen chain unlocking real world privacy. Institutions like Monument Bank and Moneygram chose it for rational privacy so tune into their livestreams for upcoming apps. The institutional side is locked but the true test is if these new experiences can retain retail users.

@Kaffchad HIP-4 + portfolio margining is massive. Turning their perps volume into prediction market dominance.

#Hyperliquid bringing out HIP-4 to enter prediction markets isn’t as simple as trying to steal Polymarket / Kalshi users. prediction markets today are already big, ~$27B volume in Jan 2026. but HL is doing ~$200B+ on the same month just on perps. HL just needs to redirect its own flow, which is very different from the usual prediction market crowd. the sophisticated leveraged traders who think in terms of delta, correlation, and cross-asset hedging finally has a home in HIP-4. let me explain why this is actually a massive deal structurally. every dollar on #Polymarket or Kalshi sits in an isolated silo. you can’t cross-margin it. it doesn’t know anything about your other positions. → for a retail bettor, that’s fine → for a trader running a multi-million dollar derivatives book, that capital is dead but on HIP-4, outcome contracts live natively on HyperCore, same matching engine and same margin account as perps. which means the portfolio margin system can recognize that your long BTC perp and your binary YES on a rate cut are correlated exposures, and net the risk. portfolio margin already delivers 30%+ efficiency gains over standard cross-margin on HL. add outcome contracts into the nettable universe and that compounds further. that’s capital efficiency that doesn’t exist anywhere else in prediction markets today. imo, the HIP-4 user base is already there, ~231K weekly active traders, and they trade way bigger size than Polymarket / #Kalshi bettors. might even pull in users who are restricted from those platforms due to regulation. we’re probably about to see another surprise in HIP-4 volume once perp traders start betting with size. then you know what happens next. HL generates more revenue → more flow into $HYPE buybacks. still early to say HL will beat both giants, but the game might flip entirely once HIP-4 hits mainnet.

@Alaouicapital @RealFinOfficial @redstone_defi partnership that matters >>>

Putting Real World Assets onchain is one thing, being able to access their real time prices and proof that they actually exist is another Thats what @realfinofficial is doing with @redstone_defi on this great partnership The $ASSET utility token now uses price feeds from redstone with risk ratings and price feeds, this is very transparent It's easy to put assets onchain, but if we do not trust them and understand the risk behind it, it's not gonna work thats why this partnership is HUGE Worth keeping an eye on this one

@kylobtc to know & walk? superpower. 😆

There's a difference between knowing the path and walking the path $NPC

@Leon_Defi @virtuals_io looks cool ngl

I see DeFi currently being forced to use over-collaterals because no one trusts anyone, and there's no way to force borrowers to repay on time. For example: If you want to borrow 100 USDC, you must lock more than 110-150 USDC assets. ERC-8183, proposed by the @virtuals_io and the dAI team of the Ethereum Foundation, offers a completely different approach: no trust is needed, only a clear process. The operation is very simple: > Job = a task (e.g., AI A asks AI B to do something). > Escrow = The client must lock all funds from the start. Without locking funds, no one will start working. > Evaluator = A third party (with credibility) reviews the results and decides: Completed → pays the AI to do the work. Rejected → returns the money to the client. > Reputation = The better the evaluator performs, the more jobs they receive and the more fees they earn. The process has only 4 steps: Open → Funded → Submitted → Completed / Rejected. I consider it safe because: > The money is already in escrow from the start, no one can steal it. > Evaluators don't dare cheat because they have a reputation, if they make a mistake, they'll lose their job later. > The system automatically rewards honest people and punishes bad ones. That's how millions of AI agents will buy, sell, and hire each other in the future.

@PunkXBT_ privacy got some attention rn

aight im watching this one

@WilcosX @ethereum starting to build. love to see

I think the @ethereum Foundation moving more $ETH into staking is quietly one of the most bullish shifts for Ethereum. After starting with a small deposit in February, it just made its biggest staking batch yet as part of a broader plan to stake around 70,000 ETH. This matters because the treasury is no longer just future sell pressure. It becomes productive capital that earns yield, helps secure Ethereum, and funds research, grants, and ecosystem growth. Less forced selling. More alignment. More conviction from the people closest to the protocol. That is the kind of signal I do not ignore.

@AidenWgmi solid read. will you take my money and give me profits? 🌚

Most people don’t lose money in crypto because they’re unlucky. They lose because of a few simple mistakes. Here’s what most investors get wrong 🧵

@0x99Gohan let me have a read.

Read it and take a look at EdgeX How to say, like... you see something that kinda makes sense, but the price does not match it You’ve had that feeling before right? People still trading, product works, but market acts like it’s weak Maybe just fear after recent TGEs Sth’s being overlooked 👀

@blazeycrypto please no more leg down, my wife might leave me

Bitcoin is now approaching a strong high timeframe support, and this is exactly the zone where the market shows its true intentions After a long decline, sharp bounces often turn out to be just liquidity traps, and that’s where most people get caught The main focus now is not the bounce itself but the next major move If the level is reclaimed and held, we fly If it fails, expect another leg down

@tazmancrypto less noise. 🤜

money game stays the same, players don’t. everyone still talks loud, but real moves happen quiet, in rooms with no cameras and no likes. 2026 is showing it clearer than ever, salary chasers are just liquidity for the ones stacking tokens, yield and access. flexers keep posting, funders keep winning. less noise, more ownership.

@IbraTheDabra is the experience neccesary? i learn quick on the job. 😂

@SantoXBT are we finally sending?

$86B just got injected into the system this week Quietly via TGA drawdown More liquidity = markets breathe easier, at least short term This is the kind of flow people ignore, until everything starts moving again

@cartist00 some real yield finally

Private credit has been one of the strongest performers for years and still flies under the radar. Now it’s being brought onchain by Goldfinch.

@OnlyHades_ @qu_stream kind of tokens we need right now

While others are panicking, $QST is actively creating the solution for the quantum era. @qu_stream offers perfect secrecy by using a modified one time pad, which is a method where encryption keys are truly random and used only once, so there is no pattern for attackers to exploit. This also protects against the "store now decrypt later" attacks that affect most crypto we have today. They also claim 504 bit quantum hardness, which is among the highest in the space rn, with encryption latency around 4 to 6 nanoseconds and it can also run on top of existing networks, without changing infrastructure or requiring new hardware. Team has also been active recently, presenting alongside Nokia and Capgemini, passing third party audits, and publishing their research through IACR. $QST is a long-term bag for me so if you're a paperhand, this is not for you. Comfy hold.

@AdriansCryptoo @1winToken when is TGE likely?

been talking about 1win Token for weeks now and the conversation around iGaming tokens has only gotten louder since I started Are you also looking out? 🤔 For anyone who's been following along, here's where things stand: @1winToken is approaching TGE and nothing about the fundamentals has changed fixed 10 billion supply, 10% burn mechanic, staking between 20 and 40% APR, 25% cashback boost in $1WIN for platform users 5 sale rounds at 360 million tokens each, unsold tokens burned. the structure is the same what has changed is the context around it the iGaming token narrative is building and it's very well worth noting. it's a sector with real revenue and real users that doesn't need crypto to function, which means when a token does show up here with actual platform backing, it sits differently than a project trying to bootstrap demand from zero 1win already had Canelo Álvarez on their ambassador roster in 2025. Jon Jones is currently part of the lineup. Johnny Sins as well🌚. These are not your average partnership/ambassadorial calls. It shows how serious the platform is about being a global powerhouse in the iGaming sector I'm still watching this one. TGE hasn't happened yet, so stay peeled $1WIN

@CryptoMikli peak trader brain. 😭😂

Threadguy never understood why people try to short the only token going up “Literally everything in crypto goes down only. So you pick anything but the one coin actually going up? Other charts are down only, and people want to short the coin that goes up. I never really understood it”
