VIPBitget VIP Weekly Research InsightsAs markets begin pricing in expectations of rate cuts, on-chain trading volume continues to grow. Pump.fun is preparing to launch its token, while Letsbonk.fun is gaining momentum. For the first time last week, its number of daily token launches and "graduated" projects surpassed Pump.fun, ending Pump.fun's dominance in the memecoin launchpad space since early 2024. The wealth effect generated by Letsbonk.fun's ecosystem has also been significant. Meanwhile, the growing maturity of hybrid "spot + on-chain" products on major centralized exchanges (CEXs) is helping build strong momentum for on-chain market activity. Since the memecoin craze driven by celebrities and political figures earlier this year, market liquidity has gradually recovered from near-dry conditions. The upcoming token launch on Pump.fun may spark renewed ecosystem-level competition among launchpad platforms, generating sustained speculative momentum that continues to benefit the broader Solana ecosystem.

Founded in 2013, BitGo is one of the largest cryptocurrency custodians in the United States, providing storage and protection services for clients’ digital assets. The crypto industry’s market capitalization has surged to $4 trillion, with Bitcoin recently reaching a new all-time high, surpassing the $120,000 mark. Matt Kennedy, Senior Strategist at Renaissance Capital, commented, “These are the best market conditions the crypto sector has seen in years, and companies are eager to take advantage. Crypto startups know that the IPO window can close unexpectedly, especially in such a volatile sector, so they want to strike while the iron is hot.”
- 21:03Fitch Downgrades Outlook for 25% of U.S. Industries to "Deteriorating"According to a report by Jinse Finance, international rating agency Fitch stated on the 21st that policy risks are casting a shadow over the U.S. credit outlook. In its mid-year update, Fitch downgraded the outlook for 25% of U.S. industries in 2025 to "deteriorating," citing increased uncertainty, slowing economic growth, and expectations that interest rates will remain high for an extended period. Fitch noted that recently passed tax and spending bills highlight the long-term challenges facing the U.S. fiscal outlook and will put pressure on healthcare-related industries. The combination of the tax bill and the extension of previous tax cuts is likely to keep the total U.S. government deficit above 7% of GDP and push the debt-to-GDP ratio to 135% by 2029. Fitch forecasts that by 2025, the default rates for U.S. high-yield bonds and leveraged loans will rise to 4.0%-4.5% and 5.5%-6.0%, respectively. Policy developments and industry-specific risks will remain the main drivers of rating trends this year.
