VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsThe unique value of Proof-of-Work (PoW) tokens lies in their mining mechanism and regulatory positioning. Research shows that mining costs are a defining feature of PoW tokens, involving significant investment in hardware and electricity. When market prices approach miners' breakeven points, miners tend to hold onto their coins in anticipation of future appreciation. This behavior reduces circulating supply, shifts the supply-demand balance, and may contribute to price increases. Regulatory clarity is also critical to the investment appeal of PoW tokens. Both BTC and LTC are classified as commodities by the U.S. SEC rather than securities, which simplifies the ETF approval process. In January 2024, the approval of the BTC spot ETF triggered significant institutional inflows. LTC is currently undergoing the ETF application process. While DOGE and KAS have not yet received formal classification, their PoW nature may position them for similar treatment. Together, these factors enhance market liquidity and attract more institutional investors.

VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsThe RWA (Real-World Assets) sector has been gaining significant traction in the crypto space, as it tokenizes traditional assets like real estate and bonds to bridge the gap between TradFi and DeFi. This process unlocks trillions of dollars in potential value, while enabling broader access to high-value investments through asset fractionalization, increased liquidity, and lower entry barriers. RWA also diversifies and stabilizes DeFi collateral options, addressing the sector's over-reliance on crypto-native assets and paving the way for large-scale adoption. With regulatory frameworks becoming clearer worldwide, the compliance advantages of RWAs are increasingly evident—drawing in institutional capital. What sets RWA projects apart is their connection to real-world income streams like rent and interest payments, offering more sustainable returns than purely speculative assets. These cash-flow-generating features appeal to investors seeking steady returns. As such, RWA is seen as a crucial step in the evolution of blockchain technology from concept to practicality. Its development potential and practical use cases make it an important sector in the crypto industry today.

VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsOver the past month, the cryptocurrency market has faced a downturn due to multiple factors. Global macroeconomic uncertainties, such as shifts in U.S. economic policies and the impact of tariffs, have heightened market anxiety.

Additionally, fluctuations in market sentiment have led to capital outflows, exacerbating price declines. In this volatile environment, selecting stable and secure passive-income products is more crucial than ever. Bitget offers solutions that not only provide high-yield fixed-term products but also flexible options for users who need liquidity. Furthermore, with the added security of the Protection Fund, investors can earn steady returns even amidst market volatility.

As the project progresses, the token may also be used for other products and services within the Truth ecosystem, suggesting it could have broader utility across the entire platform in the future. Although the documents do not explicitly refer to it as a “cryptocurrency,” the language used implies it is likely built on blockchain infrastructure.
