CRYPTO’S BEST PERFORMING NARRATIVES 👀

New crypto narratives pop up faster than items in my wife’s Amazon cart. And just when you think you’ve seen it all… a new package arrives.

Layer 3’s. Memecoins. Real World Assets. They’ve all had their time to shine.

Well, check it out… CoinGecko just dropped a report on what the best-performing narratives of the year have been so far. (As of March 31)

Source: CoinGecko

1st place: Memecoins. And it wasn’t even close… 

  • On average, the top 10 memecoins saw +1,312% gains in Q1.

  • The craziest part? 3 of the top 10 best performing memecoins are less than a month old. $BRETT, $BOME, and $MEW all launched in March.

  • Memecoins were 4.6x more profitable than the next best-performing crypto narrative…

2nd place: Real World Asset (RWA) tokens. 

  • On average, the top 10 RWA tokens saw +286% gains in Q1.

  • Only 1 of those tokens had negative returns. $XDC saw a 15.6% decline.

  • RWA’s were briefly the most profitable narrative in early February but were overtaken by the memecoin mania in March.

3rd place: A.I. tokens. 

  • On average, the top 10 A.I. tokens saw +222% gains in Q1.

  • The top tokens were all in the green.

  • Even the lowest gainer, ($TRAC), returned +74.9%.

Btw, you can check out the rest of the rankings here.

TICK TOCK: THE PRO DISCOUNT VANISHES TONIGHT ⌛

IT’S COMEBACK SEASON FOR CRYPTO FUNDRAISING 📊

Check it out. Crypto fundraising is on the rise again! 

Last month…

  • Crypto projects raised $1.16B. That’s a 52.5% increase from February and the largest monthly total since November 2023.

  • There were 180 publicly announced investments. The highest monthly total since April 2022.

  • “Infrastructure projects” saw the most funding ($283M). DeFi, CeFi, Gaming, and NFT projects rounded out the rest of the Top 5 most funded sectors.

  • More than half of the investments in March were between $1M – $5M. Another 10% of deals saw $20M+ in investments.

And it looks like the Fundraising Fiesta is just beginning, folks…

Yesterday, Bloomberg reported that Paradigm is in talks to raise a $750M+ fund. If successful, it would be the biggest crypto fundraiser since 2022.

BITE-SIZED COOKIES FOR THE ROAD 🍪

The U.S. government reportedly transferred 30,175 BTC (worth $2B) to Coinbase. The massive movement of BTC has raised eyebrows as it represents a significant portion of the coins seized by the U.S. government in late 2022 in connection with the infamous Silk Road.

BNB Chain is kicking off a “Meme Innovation Battle”. Up to $1M in rewards is being offered up to developers who create memecoins, on the BNB Chain, that reach certain trading milestones.

Monthly trading volume on crypto exchanges doubled in March. It almost reached $2.5T for the first time since November 2021. Close, but no cigar. 

Wormhole opened up airdrop claims today. About 400,000 wallets will be eligible to claim a total of 678M ‘W’ tokens.

Spot BTC ETF monthly trading volume tripled in March. March’s volume hit $111B vs. February’s total of $42B.

Ethena Labs launched its new governance token, $ENA. The company also airdropped 5% of the total $ENA supply to all USDe and sUSDe holders.
