Recently, the price of XRP soared to US$2.84, with the market value exceeding US$146 billion, becoming the third largest crypto asset in the world. This phenomenon is mainly driven by the following factors:

New product layout: Ripple actively launches ETFs and stablecoins to attract more institutional investors.

Positive expectations: The United States will adopt more friendly encryption regulations.

Market capital inflows: Whale accounts are active, driving market sentiment high.

As XRP drives market sentiment, related concept projects such as AVAX, LINK, ONDO and HBAR have recorded average increases of over 30%. As , the market expects that Wall Street capital will be more inclined to choose blockchain infrastructure with strong stability and corporate operation to realize the entry of real world assets (RWA) and stable currency capital.

AVAX has recorded a 22.86% increase in the past seven days, and the 24-hour trading volume has increased by nearly 100%. Ava Labs founder and CEO Emin Gün Sirer revealed in response to community user questions on the X platform that Avalanche (AVAX) is in discussions with the incoming U.S. president. It said that the team will not show off its relationship with the company on social media, but will directly display the results in "complete Avalanche style" and advise the community to "plan accordingly."

Avalanche (AVAX) is a blockchain platform focused on supporting the creation of decentralized applications (dApps) and customized blockchain networks, with high scalability and speed Processing speed and strong interoperability. The platform uses the unique consensus protocol Snowman Consensus Protocol and operates under the Proof of Stake (PoS) framework. The Avalanche platform consists of three main blockchains:

- X-Chain: for asset creation and exchange.

- C-Chain: supports smart contracts and is compatible with the Ethereum Virtual Machine (EVM).

- P-Chain: used to coordinate validators and subnet management.

Avalanche’s recent progress

1. Avalanche9000 upgrade

- The cost of launching Layer 1 blockchain (L1) is reduced by 99.9%.

- C-Chain’s gas fee is reduced by 96%.

- Enhance interoperability between chains.

This upgrade has been launched in the Fuji testnet and is planned to be deployed to the mainnet, providing developers with a simpler custom blockchain creation process.

2. Community and ecosystem growth

Avalanche has seen a significant increase in community activity and is strengthening its infrastructure and dApp ecosystem through a partnership with Amazon Cloud Services (AWS).

3. Avalanche Rush and DeFi Expansion

The Avalanche Rush project provides incentives for DeFi protocols such as Aave and Curve, and despite initial complaints of low APY, this The project has significantly improved liquidity and user base, and promoted the expansion of the entire ecosystem.

LINK has recorded a 44.8% increase in the past seven days, and the 24-hour trading volume has increased by nearly 757%. Recently, the Trump family’s encryption project World Liberty Financial (WLFI) announced that it will adopt Chainlink as a standard solution for on-chain data and cross-chain interoperability. The protocol plans to first integrate Chainlink oracles on the Ethereum mainnet to provide price feed support and facilitate the upcoming Aave v3 lending protocol. WLFI will be connected to the Chainlink ecosystem, which currently supports over $16 trillion in transaction volume. With the help of Chainlink oracles, the WLFI protocol will be able to obtain reliable financial market data and support the listing of multiple assets such as USDC, USDT, ETH, and WBTC.

Chainlink is a decentralized oracle network designed to enhance the capabilities of blockchain applications by securely connecting smart contracts with real-world data and external APIs. It enables blockchain smart contracts to interact with external systems and becomes an important infrastructure for the Real World Assets (RWA) track. Chainlink’s native token, LINK, is used to pay node operators for data retrieval and provision, ensuring the economic sustainability of the network.

Chainlink’s technology continues to expand and has been successfully integrated into multiple blockchain platforms, including Ethereum, Arbitrum, Avalanche, Base, Optimism and Solana. Many projects provide price information, cross-chain interoperability and other services through Chainlink. Recently, Chainlink announced partnerships with financial institutions such as ANZ, Swift, and UBS, and launched Chainlink Economics 2.0 to support network sustainability, as well as Chainlink Scale to help the blockchain ecosystem become more efficient.

Chainlink recently announced the launch of CCIP Private Transactions, powered by the newly released Chainlink BlockchainPowered by hain Privacy Manager. This privacy protection feature will help financial institutions ensure the confidentiality, integrity and compliance of data when conducting transactions across blockchain networks. In addition, Chainlink has partnered with EU company 21X to promote the launch of a tokenized asset settlement system to provide reliable pricing and on-chain event data connectivity for financial data. The Central Bank of Brazil (BancoCentralBR) has also selected the Chainlink standard for secure settlement of its Drex project to ensure secure operations at borders, blockchains and currencies in different areas.

ONDO has recorded a 44.8% increase in the past seven days, and its 24-hour trading volume has increased by nearly 291%. Ondo Finance is a protocol dedicated to tokenizing traditional financial assets (TradFi) and introducing it to the blockchain. Through tokenization, it provides on-chain financial products for institutions, aiming to benefit more investors. Ondo’s native token ONDO plays a key role in governance, staking and ecological incentives.

Ondo has made significant progress in tokenizing U.S. Treasury bonds, launching products such as OUSG (U.S. Bond Fund) and USDY (yield stablecoin), which have received widespread attention. Meanwhile, Ondo has successfully completed FinCEN registration, further strengthening its compliance. Ondo also achieves cross-chain interoperability through technology integration with Polyhedra Network and LayerZero. Additionally, Ondo’s partnership with PayPal USD (PYUSD) provides 24/7 exchange capabilities.

HBAR has recorded a 163.12% increase in the past 7 days, and the 24-hour trading volume has also increased by nearly 95%.

Hedera played a central role in the project of BlackRock, one of the world's largest asset management companies, and realized the proxy of money market funds (MMF) through cooperation. Monetization. The project unites several important partners, including:

Archax: provides trading and custody services.

Ownera: Supports underwriting and compliance during the tokenization process.

HBAR Foundation: Provides technical and financial support.

In this cooperation, Hedera uses its blockchain technology to achieve ledger recording of tokenized assets, ensuring data transparency and security. Tokenization makes the trading of traditional assets more flexible and efficient, and simplifies the purchase and redemption process.

Hedera uses the Hashgraph consensus algorithm based on Directed Acyclic Graph (DAG), which has the following salient features:

High efficiency: it canCapable of handling thousands of transactions with extremely low latency.

Controllable nodes: dominated by enterprise nodes, meeting the enterprise’s high requirements for stability and consistency.

Partialization: Compared with completely decentralized public chains, Hedera is more suitable for enterprise-level application scenarios.

This design makes Hedera particularly suitable for financial institutions like BlackRock, providing strong support for the issuance and trading of tokenized assets.

The recent recovery of the encryption market has benefited from favorable promotion and the support of technological innovation. The strong performance of XRP has led to the rise of related concept projects, especially projects such as AVAX, LINK and HBAR, which have consolidated their market positions through ecological cooperation, tokenized asset applications and technological advancements. In the future, RWA and the DeFi stablecoin track will become the core areas of deep integration between the encryption industry and traditional finance.
