Hot Topics
1. Base
Base Chain has become one of the most densely populated ecosystems for token issuance and narratives, with AI, Meme, and Launchpad projects all gathered, and daily token issuance exceeding 100,000, but the overall ecosystem is chaotic and risky. Some projects attempt long-term development through AI flywheels and reversible mechanisms, but core DeFi and fundamental assets are marginalized by emotional narratives, showing a clear valuation mismatch. 2. WLFI WLFI is mainly distributed through Binance USD1 wealth management and activities, and has actually distributed rewards multiple times, with an annualized return of approximately 13-21%, considered a low-risk arbitrage opportunity. Discussions focus on participation methods, return verification, and whether subsequent returns will decline. 3. Polymarket Polymarket is considered a core representative of the prediction market narrative, with trading volume and activity continuously reaching new highs, and demonstrating influence in real-world events. The market generally believes that the prediction market may be entering a supercycle, but subjective judgment, position management, and regulatory uncertainties still need to be guarded against. 4. MicroStrategy MicroStrategy has been continuously increasing its Bitcoin holdings and deeply pegging its price to BTC, which some consider a long-term value anchor, but has also raised concerns about high leverage and potential selling pressure. As BTC has fallen below its holding cost, market opinions have diverged on the institutional ability to support the price and the extreme risks involved. 5. Moltbook Moltbook is considered an important testing ground for the on-chain economy of AI Agents, unfolding a long-term narrative around ERC-8004, AI identity, royalties, and the intelligent agent society. Supporters believe that $MOLT has a high narrative premium, but this is accompanied by discussions about the potential for AI to spiral out of control and its uncertainties. Action Signals 1.

2. Aster CEO Responds to Market Doubts and Announces Development Roadmap
Jinse Finance reports that Aster CEO Leonard has officially responded to the recent ongoing FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt) surrounding the project.
He stated that the accusations circulating are "completely false on a factual level" and constitute "unsubstantiated and malicious manipulation of public opinion." Regarding allegations of "selling off tokens, CZ's involvement, and whether the project is a "liquidity exit," Leonard clarified: CZ is merely a project advisor, and the investment from investor Yzi Labs is locked up long-term; Aster is an independently operating project, not controlled or directly operated by CZ or Binance entities. The related accusations are "baseless."
He also emphasized that token releases and buybacks follow a transparent token economic model, designed to incentivize ecosystem participants rather than facilitate selling. The project recently upgraded its buyback mechanism, implementing daily automatic buybacks on-chain (funds sourced from protocol revenue) to improve transparency and predictability. Leonard provided the following verifiable on-chain data: a cumulative buyback of 254 million tokens; 78 million tokens have been burned and an equivalent amount relocked to the airdrop pool; and future plans include burning all remaining repurchased tokens. According to Jinse Finance, ZKsync will launch a ZKnomics staking pilot program, with the first quarter starting on February 9th. In the future, ZK token holders will be able to stake tokens through the Tally staking pilot interface and earn rewards while participating in governance.
The total reward cap for the first quarter is 10 million ZK tokens, and the total reward cap for the second quarter is 25 million ZK tokens. The target annual interest rate at the start of each season is 3%, and depending on participation, the maximum annual interest rate can reach 10% per season. Rewards are continuously distributed with no lock-up period.
4. Coinbase Announces Liquifi to be Renamed Coinbase Token Manager, Building an End-to-End Token Management Platform
According to Jinse Finance, Coinbase announced on February 28th that it will officially rename Liquifi, the token management platform acquired last year, to Coinbase Token Manager. The platform is positioned as an end-to-end token management solution, aiming to provide on-chain developers with tools covering the entire lifecycle of tokens before and after issuance, including automated attribution and distribution, real-time cap tables management, compliance workflows, and integration with Coinbase Prime institutional-grade custody.
Coinbase stated that this move, combined with its recent acquisition of the fundraising platform Echo, will provide token issuers and investors with a one-stop service from fundraising and launch to secondary markets and custody infrastructure. Currently, several projects, including Optimism, Ethena, and Zora, are already using the platform's token management services.
5. Experts Question "Vitalik's New Creator Token Scheme": DAO Governance Issues May Cause the Scheme to Fail
Jinse Finance reports that Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently proposed a creator token reform scheme, arguing that the current problem lies not in incentivizing content creation, but in selecting high-quality content. He suggests that a curated DAO should decide which creators are important, with the token primarily serving as a prediction tool, allowing people to bet on which creators the DAO will select. Ultimately, the rise and fall of creators will not be determined by speculators, but by high-value content creators.
Experts have differing opinions on this. Oxytocin, head of the Umia ecosystem, points out that while the scheme introduces a certain degree of welfare creation through prediction markets, it still lacks a proper off-chain execution mechanism, failing to ensure long-term consistency among creators.
... RedStone co-founder Marcin Kazmierczak believes that prediction markets not only create speculation but also informed discovery, incentivizing people to focus on quality rather than chasing attention metrics. Superset CEO Neil Staunton is skeptical, questioning whether DAOs can be arbiters of creative quality and whether creative works should be tokenized.
