Insights on Promising Sectors
Representing HTX Ventures, Managing Partner Edward delivered his insights on the evolving landscape of Web3 investments during several panel discussions.
On 4 September, during the “Navigating Investment in Web3, Tech, Narrative, or Fomo?” panel hosted by DFG, Edward highlighted key investment trends, noting the success of the meme sector, BTCFi innovations, and promising areas such as SocialFi, AI, and DePIN.
“The meme sector has performed remarkably well in this cycle. Attracting funds through memes and subsequently launching utility-driven products is one of the strategic paths that ecosystem developers and project teams are pursuing this cycle.” Edward said, “BTCFi, based on the BTC ecosystem this year, is also one of HTX Ventures’ key areas of interest. As an innovation track in 2024, the BTC ecosystem is witnessing various innovations, and we anticipate even more developments in this field. SocialFi projects, AI, and DePIN are also sectors that we are closely monitoring.”
Speaking from a broader market perspective, Edward particularly mentioned BTC and ETH ETFs. “The entry of BTC and ETH into the ETF era is poised to significantly alter the dynamics of the cryptocurrency market, bringing in more investors and capital while also potentially introducing greater regulation and market manipulation.”
How HTX Ventures Helps Portfolio Companies
At the MKGA Summit, Edward expanded on HTX Ventures’ strategies for supporting its portfolio companies. HTX Ventures provides a full service for its portfolio companies, including: fundraising support, world-class mentorship, listing opportunities, strategic networking, and global market entry.
One example is BounceBit, a portfolio company that has benefited from HTX Ventures’ extensive resources. “We connected BounceBit with projects across our portfolio, extended their global outreach, and provided in-depth research reports and marketing support, including Twitter space collaborations and events,” Edward explained. “We believe in supporting innovative projects like BounceBit for the long run.”
There are certain things that HTX Ventures looks into when investing in a company, and one of the most important things is the product. Edward said, “HTX Ventures now focuses more on the product and the team itself. Through financial and resource support, HTX Ventures aims to help teams develop genuinely innovative products that serve a large number of crypto users, which is our long-term investment goal.”
Embracing AI in a Decentralized Manner
HTX Ventures is also at the forefront of integrating AI with blockchain technology. On 5 September, Zhao Lei represented HTX Ventures at the AI Crypto Summit’s panel discussion on “The Rise of Autonomous Agents in DeFi & CeFi”. She underscored the transformative potential of decentralized AI, which leverages blockchain for transparent decision-making and enhanced security.
“Our investment arm and exchange have supported several high-potential projects involving decentralized AI from early on. One example is Fetch.ai. Their platform runs AI agents that can conduct transactions and other economic activities,” she said.
Conclusion
The active participation in the plentiful activities showcased HTX Ventures’ and HTX DAO’s commitment to keep building the industry, as well as the great emphasis they put on the Korea and Asia markets.
As the global investment arm of HTX, HTX Ventures is actively seeking high-potential investment opportunities around the globe including key areas like Korea, offering investment and ecosystem support to help innovative startups in the region grow.

A new Ethereum meme coin, Pochita ($POCHITA), has made headlines after skyrocketing in value shortly after its launch. According to on-chain data, one trader turned an initial investment of $3,000 into $150,000 in under three hours, reflecting a near-5000% profit. This rapid surge has drawn comparisons to other meme coins like Bonk ($BONK), which gained significant attention in the Solana ecosystem.
Pochita launched on October 2, 2024, quickly reaching a $20 million market cap within 9 hours, despite the broader crypto market contracting by 2.9% over the past 24 hours. The meme coin sector also dipped 3.2%, now valued at $47.5 billion. Despite the falling prices, Pochita’s rapid rise suggests strong investor sentiment around meme coins remains, especially following recent Federal Reserve interest rate cuts.
Though meme coins are known for their volatility and lack of clear fundamentals, they can provide quick gains for traders. Pochita is being discussed as a potential successor to Bonk, and if it continues its growth, it could join the ranks of other top meme coins like Dogecoin, Shiba Inu, and Pepe Coin.
At the same time, other projects such as Crypto All-Stars ($STARS) are providing new avenues for meme coin holders by offering a unified staking platform where users can stake various meme coins and earn rewards. Crypto All-Stars has already raised over $1.9 million in its presale, indicating strong interest in platforms that provide utility and passive income opportunities for meme coin enthusiasts.

A recent Binance report highlights critical risks in the cryptocurrency market, warning of the dangers posed by inflated valuations and centralized token ownership. The report cautions that if these issues remain unaddressed, they could destabilize the long-term stability and growth of the crypto industry.
Valuation Concerns: The report emphasizes that overvaluation, particularly in newly launched tokens with low circulating supply, could lead to market bubbles and poor performance. Venture capital funds, which once aggressively invested in crypto, are now scaling back and shifting focus to sectors with more sustainable valuations. As the market becomes saturated with new tokens, the circulating supply could increase exponentially, further straining performance.
Centralization of Token Ownership: Binance also flags the risks of centralization, where large tokenholders dominate ownership. This concentration of power can result in governance issues, market manipulation, and potential crashes caused by sudden sell-offs. The report stresses the need for decentralized control and broad participation to maintain the integrity and resilience of crypto projects.
Transparency and Trust: To mitigate these risks, the report underscores the importance of transparency in fund management. A lack of clear disclosures can erode stakeholder trust and harm project sustainability. Binance notes that greater transparency, like the adoption of proof-of-reserves by platforms such as Coinbase, is crucial for fostering responsible financial management and building long-term trust in the market.
In conclusion, the report urges the crypto industry to prioritize decentralized governance and transparency to ensure sustainable growth and maintain market confidence.

The Cryptocurrency Open Patent Alliance (COPA) has teamed up with Unified Patents to launch the Blockchain Zone initiative, aimed at combating “patent trolls” in the crypto industry. Patent trolls, or non-practicing entities (NPEs), are known for exploiting patent rights through litigation rather than developing new technologies. COPA and Unified Patents aim to prevent such entities from hindering blockchain innovation by making costly and baseless patent assertions.
The initiative is designed to safeguard blockchain and related technologies from these unwarranted patent claims, fostering an environment where developers and companies can innovate freely without fear of legal threats. Key figures in the partnership, such as Paul Grewal from Coinbase and Steve Lee from Spiral, emphasize that patent trolls create significant barriers to technological progress, especially in the fast-evolving crypto space.
By aligning with over 300 companies through Unified Patents, COPA’s effort strengthens its mission to protect the blockchain community and the broader crypto-economy from the disruptive impact of NPEs, ensuring that blockchain innovation remains open and accessible.
