Weekly Review of New Assets on Huobi HTX (6.22-6.28): AAVE Surges Over 30% This Week, Leading the DeFi Sector

In the past week (from June 22 to June 28), the cryptocurrency market maintained a high-level fluctuation pattern, with Bitcoin under pressure around $60,000, and market sentiment becoming cautious. Although mainstream coins experienced a brief lull, structural opportunities have quietly emerged— the DeFi sector was the first to awaken from its slumber, with several leading protocol tokens showing significant independent trends this week. According to data from the Huobi HTX platform, blue-chip assets such as AAVE, DYDX, and JTO have strengthened in succession; the AI sector's popularity continues, with MANTA and BEAT remaining strong; at the same time, the Solana ecosystem has become active again, with SOL being one of the best-performing large-cap assets this week.

DeFi Sector: Protocol Value Returns, Blue-Chip Leaders Reassessed

The most impressive performance this week came from the DeFi sector. Driven by the continuous accumulation of on-chain liquidity and steady growth in protocol revenue, the DeFi sector as a whole has welcomed a round of value recovery, with several core targets achieving considerable weekly gains.

++AAVE (Aave Protocol)++: Weekly increase of 31%, leading large-cap DeFi assets. As the absolute leader in decentralized lending protocols, Aave's TVL (Total Value Locked) has long ranked among the industry's top. Notably, the token buyback plan previously promoted by the protocol (with a weekly buyback scale of about $1 million) continues to release positive signals, and the market's logic for re-evaluating Aave's medium to long-term value is becoming increasingly clear.

++GWEI (ETHGas)++: Increased by 63% this week. As a DeFi protocol focused on the Ethereum ecosystem's infrastructure layer, GWEI benefits from the recovery of Ethereum network activity and the growth in on-chain interaction demand, leading to direct traffic and fee capture capabilities.

++DYDX (dYdX)++: Benchmark project in the on-chain perpetual contract sector, increased by 26% this week. As on-chain derivatives trading demand gradually rebounds, DYDX continues to attract institutional-level users with its mature order book model and deep liquidity.

++XPL (Plasma)++: Increased by 26%. As an emerging protocol target in the DeFi ecosystem, Plasma is a blockchain compatible with Layer 1 EVM, built for high-capacity, low-cost global stablecoin payments.

++JTO (Jito)++: Weekly increase of 23%, closely related to the overall recovery of the Solana ecosystem. As a liquidity staking protocol under the Solana ecosystem, JTO benefits from the significant warming of SOL on-chain activity—especially with the recent resurgence of the Solana chain's Meme ecosystem, driving both staking demand and on-chain liquidity expansion.

AI Sector and Solana Ecosystem Continue to Heat Up, SOL Leads Mainstream Assets

AI remains one of the most sustainable hot sectors in this round of the market. As sub-sectors like AI Agents, decentralized computing power, and AI infrastructure continue to evolve, the integration of AI and Web3 is expected to become one of the key focus areas in the second half of the year.

++MANTA (Manta Network)++: Weekly increase of 93%. MANTA, with its dual positioning of modular Layer 2 and AI computing infrastructure, continues to attract attention from technology-driven funds. This week, MANTA-related ecosystem dynamics were intensively released, continuously promoting integration with AI computing protocols, significantly enhancing narrative heat.

++BEAT (Audiera)++: Increased by 70% this week. Audiera has pioneered a native participatory economic model for agents on the BNB chain: humans and autonomous AI agents as equal participants.

At the same time, the Solana ecosystem also performed actively this week. ++SOL (Solana)++ increased by 2%, ranking among the top in mainstream market cap assets. Over the past year, Solana has continuously attracted a large number of users and funds due to its high performance, low fees, and mature developer ecosystem. Recently, the trading heat of Meme on the Solana chain has significantly rebounded, with the number of new project issuances and on-chain activity continuing to grow. As the core asset of the ecosystem, SOL is expected to continue benefiting from the overall prosperity of the ecosystem.
