Huobi HTX New Asset Weekly Review (3.15—3.22): Laozi +260%, ROBO +34%, Market Focus on Quality Assets

As we enter late March, geopolitical conflicts have triggered a rise in market risk aversion, leading to a general weakening of the crypto market and a pullback in mainstream assets. According to data from Huobi HTX, in the market from March 15 to March 22, funds have accelerated their concentration on high-elasticity sectors, pushing some assets in Meme, AI, and GameFi sectors to rise against the trend, indicating a clear structural market trend. Huobi HTX has shown great foresight in selecting quality assets and sector layouts, with several newly listed assets performing remarkably well recently, among which the debut Chinese Meme project "Laozi" amazed everyone with a 260% increase.

The Meme and AI Sectors Continue to Heat Up: "Laozi" Leads with 260%, ROBO Debuts in the Mainstream

This week, the Meme sector remains the center of the market's "wealth creation effect," but unlike previous purely animal-themed narratives, projects with deep cultural heritage and consensus within the Chinese community have begun to strengthen.

• Laozi (LAOZI) : The BSC ecosystem Chinese Meme project "Laozi" tops the list with a weekly increase of 260%, becoming the biggest highlight of this period. Its success stems not only from its highly recognizable Eastern philosophy IP but also from its ability to attract purchasing power from the global Chinese community after its launch on Huobi HTX.

The AI sector is set to be the main theme for the entire year of 2026. As one of the sectors with the most long-term narrative potential, the integration of AI and blockchain continues to deepen. With ongoing inflows of funds and attention, the AI sector is expected to maintain an active state in the medium to long term.

• ROBO (Fabric Protocol) : The debut effect of ROBO on Huobi HTX continues, with a strong rebound of 34% this week. Notably, after ROBO was launched on Huobi HTX, it quickly gained market recognition and landed on the Binance spot market last week, further expanding its liquidity and user base. Additionally, the direction represented by ROBO, which combines AI infrastructure and applications, aligns with the market's expectations for "real-world scenarios."

DeFi Sector: Value Returns, STO and ROCK Steadily Advance

The DeFi sector performed steadily overall this week. As market sentiment warms up, DeFi assets with actual cash flow and governance value have begun to attract the attention of conservative funds. As an important infrastructure in the crypto market, DeFi is gradually returning to a rational growth trajectory after experiencing adjustments.

• STO (StakeStone) : Weekly increase of 49%. StakeStone is a decentralized cross-chain liquidity infrastructure protocol aimed at changing the way liquidity is obtained, allocated, and utilized across various blockchain ecosystems.

• ROCK (Rock Dao) : Increased by 16%. Rock DAO (ROCK) was initiated by Gala Games and is a Web3 gaming ecosystem token developed in collaboration with Huobi HTX and Tron.

• BTW (Bitway) : Weekly increase of 10%. Bitway is a Layer 1 blockchain built specifically for Bitcoin operations.

GameFi Sector: Chain Games Revive, GUN and XTER Perform Well

The GameFi sector performed well this week, with several high-quality projects frequently taking action in technical delivery and community activities. At this stage, GameFi projects are shifting from the early "high-yield driven" model to a development path that emphasizes both gameplay and economic models. As the chain game ecosystem gradually warms up, user activity and funding attention have both increased.

• GUN (GUNZ) : Weekly increase of 33%. GUNZ is a Layer 1 blockchain platform designed specifically for AAA Web3 games. As a rising star in the GameFi field, GUN has successfully attracted a large number of players and investors' attention with its unique game economic model and the community incentive activities launched this week.

• XTER (Xterio) : Weekly increase of 23%. Xterio is a game developer and publisher with a global team, focusing on multiplayer games through a cross-platform product portfolio that enhances depth and richness of gaming experiences through player ownership.

Huobi HTX Deepens Global Vision, Captures the Next Growth Point

Overall, this week, the newly listed assets on Huobi HTX have shown a clear characteristic of "multi-sector rotation" against the backdrop of a weakening overall market. The crypto market is gradually breaking away from a single cycle-driven model, shifting towards a more diversified and structured development phase. In this process, platforms that can accurately capture hot sectors and quickly launch quality assets will have a competitive advantage. The explosive performance of ROBO, the first token launched on Huobi HTX, once again proves the excess returns of early participation in debut assets.

In the future, Huobi HTX will adhere to the principle of "user first," continuously optimize its listing strategy, and deepen its layout in core sectors such as AI, DeFi, and GameFi, exploring more potential and narrative-rich quality assets globally. In the tumultuous yet opportunity-filled year of 2026, Huobi HTX will witness the birth of every wealth code together with a wide range of investors.
