The market heat continues to rise at the beginning of the year. BTC increased by 2.36%, ETH rose by 2.92%, and the total market capitalization of the entire crypto market surpassed $3.11 trillion.
This week's market performance has been quite dramatic. The bears faced concentrated liquidations at the opening, putting pressure on liquidity; subsequently, the bulls also couldn't escape, being hit by a $300 million funding rate adjustment. As we enter 2026, market risk appetite has significantly rebounded, and funding rates have risen accordingly, directly boosting trading activity.
The most notable development is the resurgence of the ICO boom. New project fundraising waves are surging, becoming the current market focus. From on-chain data to fundraising scale, they all tell the same story: risk capital is re-entering the market, and participants are betting on the next growth cycle.
