Animoca Reports In-Depth Review: If Your Understanding Still Stops at Buying Coins, You're Destined to Be Someone Else's ATM!

Just now, Animoca Brands released their annual exchange report
A lengthy in-depth article
After reading it, my biggest feeling isn't that the market is cooling down
It's that exchanges are changing faces!
Ordinary people watch the excitement, smart people see the underlying trend. Today, I break down this report into three industry future indicators. Recommended to like and save:
Trend 1: Altcoins Decline, Everyone Decides to Steal TradFi’s Tower
Since cryptocurrencies are volatile and traffic is drying up, why not move US stocks, gold, and bonds onto the chain?
In this race, Gate has shown tremendous ambition:
Product dominance: By the end of 2025, Gate will have listed 80 tokenized stock products
Securing the industry’s number one position in this vertical.
Huge trading volume: In Q4, Gate’s tokenized stock trading reached $3.9 billion, ranking first
Trend 2: Binance Downward Attack, Small and Medium Exchanges Lose Their Comfort Zone
This report contains a very sharp insight: Binance is playing the iPhone SE strategy
In the past, Binance only focused on projects with FDV over $500 million
But in 2025, Binance is aggressively sinking through Binance Alpha, targeting small coins with market caps of tens or hundreds of thousands of dollars
This is like stealing home from other exchanges that relied on quick, precise, and ruthless first launches
Although Gate remains very aggressive in primary listings (549 listings throughout the year), it’s starting to be pressured by giants like Binance, with visible downward infiltration
That’s also why Gate must desperately ramp up RWA and Alpha plans
If you’re invading my territory, I’ll explore new frontiers
Trend 3: Don’t Be Fooled by Explosive Listings, It’s the Era of Cutting Losses
This is the most painful part of the report. Animoca analyzed the project trends of almost all new coins in 2025
And drew a conclusion that broke my defenses:
Peak on the first day of listing, then basically back to zero within a month
This pattern of pumping and then burying has become industry standard
Why is this happening?
Attention is too fragmented: Today you’re trading dogs, tomorrow stocks, users have no loyalty
Once incentives stop, hype disappears completely
For example, various Alpha plans, during events, trading volume exceeds 1 billion; once the event ends, trading volume drops sharply!
So, how to play in 2026?
Gate’s US stock-like approach is worth watching:
If you haven’t tried buying US stocks or gold on CEX yet
Go try it now
Earnings season, recently $MSFT $NVDA $CRCL surged 4-35%, and you still haven’t made any strategic moves?
What is financial freedom? It’s not winning the lottery, but the ability to allocate assets globally!
The true powerhouse is using blockchain efficiency to earn money from traditional finance!
