Deep Tide TechFlow News, January 2nd, 1confirmation founder Nick Tomaino posted on X platform stating that the total market capitalization of cryptocurrencies is currently $3.1 trillion (down 14% over the past year), but in 2009 this number was still 0. For the crypto industry, 2025 signifies “the end of the era of easy money”: venture capital exits through pump-and-dump schemes, Meme coins and DAT all declare failure. However, last year, for the first time in crypto industry history, products that do not rely on token speculation outperformed other products, such as Polymarket and stablecoins. Moving forward, to achieve excess returns, developing and using such products is essential. There are three constants in the crypto industry:

Clearly understand the nature of fraudsters;
The macro trend of declining trust in institutions and the increasing importance of the internet is real, and trustworthy neutral currencies present investment opportunities;
Only two cryptocurrencies possess credible neutrality: Bitcoin (BTC) and Ethereum (ETH).

BTC1.48%

ETH3.55%
