According to the latest in-depth report by ChainCatcher, as Chinese memes evolve from scattered emotional memes into a complete trading cycle within a segmented market, Gate is becoming one of the key platforms with the earliest and most concentrated liquidity and speculation in this round of Chinese meme trends, thanks to its systematic product layout.The report points out that Gate connects the complete path of memes from launch, trading to long-short speculation through its product matrix, including Gate Fun, Gate Alpha, spot, contracts, and ETFs, allowing efficient price discovery and liquidity amplification on the same platform. Among them, Gate Alpha, as a high-frequency on-chain asset entry, stands out for its coverage density and launch rhythm for Chinese memes. Several leading Chinese memes (such as "I'm Coming" and "Crying Horse") achieved several-fold increases after launching on Alpha, with some tokens at one point accounting for over 20% of the total market trading volume on Gate, highlighting its liquidity support capability during critical windows.ChainCatcher believes that Gate's advantage lies not merely in "rushing to list tokens" but in the continuous validation of its systemic capabilities. Faster response times, a more complete product matrix, and the ability to accommodate liquidity and trading demands at different stages enable Gate to occupy a key position in the market and gradually form a sustainable operational infrastructure closed loop.

Casterman Advisory founder André Casterman posted on the X platform that 2026 will be a critical turning point for the crypto market, with the industry's focus shifting from "whether we need crypto" to building new financial infrastructure. Tokenization and digital assets will transition from pilot phases to regulated production-level deployments.In terms of transaction banking, central banks and institutions worldwide have adopted a unified "wholesale-first" strategy for central bank digital currencies (CBDCs), tokenized deposits, and regulated stablecoins (such as USDC and RLUSD). The upcoming crypto market structure legislation will support institutional applications, and once regulations are clear, banks will invest heavily in areas such as crypto trading. Digital currency forms will coexist and achieve interoperability, with blockchain becoming a parallel financial rail, while banks continue to act as intermediaries, shifting the industry's focus towards building infrastructure under clear regulation.

According to market news, Jito Labs announced the launch of the IBRL Explorer tool, which transparently showcases the construction details within Solana blocks for the first time.The tool has discovered widespread behaviors such as "Late Packing" and "Slot Timing Games" in the Solana network, which affect state propagation efficiency, increase latency, and weaken network stability. The IBRL Explorer generates an IBRL score for each validator through three scoring mechanisms: Slot Time, Vote Packing, and Non-Vote Packing, aiming to enhance block construction quality and network performance.

The ADEN Points Program has been launched as a core incentive mechanism within the ADEN Perp DEX ecosystem. This program systematically quantifies the real trading behaviors, position performance, and community participation of users in the perpetual contract market through a points model, providing a unified reference standard for subsequent ecosystem rewards. ADEN points do not have trading attributes and cannot be obtained through purchase, emphasizing genuine participation and long-term contributions to avoid the incentive mechanism being dominated by short-term operations or speculative behaviors.The current first phase is the "Genesis" season, open to early participants of ADEN perpetual contracts. Points will be calculated and settled at fixed intervals, using a multidimensional structure to evaluate trading activity, position stability, and collaborative contributions, each corresponding to an independent reward pool. By focusing on genuine behaviors and long-term contributions, ADEN is establishing a more sustainable and verifiable co-construction incentive foundation for its Perp DEX ecosystem.
