HTX New Asset Weekly Recap (June 8–14): AI, DeFi, and BTCFi Take Turns Leading Gains, with Top Performer Up Nearly 100%
Truce leads to broad market rally!
Navigating Web3 tides with focused insights
Over the past week (June 8–14), the cryptocurrency market as a whole exhibited a volatile upward trend. Geopolitical risks—which had previously triggered market risk-aversion—significantly eased, leading major assets to post broad gains and boosting activity across the altcoin sector. According to HTX’s weekly data, high-profile sectors including AI, DeFi, BTCFi, and DePIN all delivered strong performance, with BEAT registering a weekly gain of nearly 100%. Several quality assets recently listed on HTX achieved top-tier returns, consistently generating profit opportunities.
Deepening Integration Between DeFi and BTCFi; BEAT Nearly Doubles in a Week
The standout performer this week came from the DeFi sector. As on-chain liquidity continues recovering, DeFi has regained investor attention. Meanwhile, innovation within the Bitcoin ecosystem—centered on enhancing Bitcoin yield and improving asset utilization—is accelerating, positioning BTCFi as a potential new growth driver following LSD and restaking. Notably, convergence between DeFi and BTCFi is intensifying: an increasing number of protocols are integrating Bitcoin liquidity into DeFi use cases, opening up fresh avenues for industry growth.
- BEAT (Audiera): With its product logic and community consensus, BEAT topped the leaderboard with a 96% weekly gain. Audiera pioneers a native-agent participatory economic model where humans and autonomous AI agents participate as equals.
- BTW (Bitway): A representative project in the BTCFi space, BTW rose 68% this week. Bitway is a Layer-1 blockchain purpose-built for Bitcoin-based businesses. Its repeated appearance on top-performing lists reflects sustained market confidence in Bitcoin ecosystem development.
AI Momentum Continues; SKYAI Leads the Sector
AI remains one of the core themes driving this market cycle. As sub-sectors—including AI Agents, AI infrastructure, and AI data services—continue attracting attention, long-term growth narratives around AI remain optimistic. Projects backed by real products, user growth, and robust developer ecosystems are gaining broader market recognition.
- SKYAI: Weekly gain of 65%. SKYAI is a comprehensive AI ecosystem powered by the Model Context Protocol (MCP), designed to seamlessly integrate intelligent solutions across industries.
- WLD (Worldcoin): Up another 12% this week. Proposed in 2019 by OpenAI co-founder Sam Altman, Worldcoin serves as a pioneering exploration of digital identity infrastructure for the AI era—its ecosystem developments continue drawing strong market interest.
- NEAR (NEAR Protocol): Gained 11%. Positioned both as a Layer-1 and an AI-native chain, NEAR’s “AI-native blockchain” roadmap has earned market validation. Its high-throughput architecture and native support for AI agents give it differentiated competitive advantages amid the current AI-themed rally.
DePIN Infrastructure Value Reassessed; Major L1s and L2s Recover Steadily
This week also saw renewed attention toward DePIN (Decentralized Physical Infrastructure Networks) and the Layer-2/Layer-1 sectors. Against the backdrop of rapid AI industry growth, surging demand for computing power and data is prompting the market to reassess the value of decentralized compute, networking, and data infrastructure represented by DePIN projects. Many institutions view DePIN as a vital bridge linking the crypto world with physical reality—and one of Web3’s most promising growth areas over the coming years. As overall market risk appetite improves, public chains with clear ecosystem roadmaps and compelling long-term narratives are regaining investor focus.
- OPG (OpenGradient): Up 46% this week. OPG focuses on coordinating and incentivizing decentralized physical nodes; its tokenomics—tightly coupled to actual network contributions—has received short-term pricing adjustments from the market.
- GRASS (Grass): Gained 27%. GRASS is a highly watched data-layer project in the DePIN space, aggregating idle bandwidth resources to build a decentralized network. Its integration of token economics with real-world usage drove this week’s price appreciation.
- OP (Optimism): The leading Layer-2 project rose 14% this week. As a core implementer of Ethereum scaling solutions, Optimism continues advancing its Superchain strategy, expanding its ecosystem footprint.
- SEI (Sei Network): Gained 13%. As a high-performance chain optimized for trading infrastructure, Sei maintains strong activity in the trading tech stack and continues attracting developers and ecosystem projects.
