On the eve of 2026, these key sectors of the crypto ecosystem are worth paying close attention to. Who will break through in Meme launchpads and ICO launchpads? Can the prediction market truly become a mainstream application? How is the commercialization process of projects related to privacy and zero-knowledge proofs progressing? Behind these questions lies the imaginative space of the entire Web3 ecosystem.
Perpetual DEXs have experienced fierce competition. Can the current leaders still expand their advantages? Stablecoins and cross-chain bridging solutions are reshaping the payment infrastructure—which projects are underestimated in their potential? The maturity of ETF and spot contract tools is continuously improving, and institutional-grade applications are about to take off. The RWA sector is shifting from hype to real implementation, making now the best window to discover undervalued projects.
Overall, the entire crypto market in 2026 is full of uncertainties. In each vertical sector, there is a trend of winner-takes-all. The current question is—which two projects can truly outperform the narrative and the cycle? The answer can only be given after a deep understanding of their technological advantages, team strength, and market positioning.

To be honest, the leading projects in perpetual DEXs are now basically at full capacity, while those small and refined stablecoin solutions are more promising... This wave of RWA is really not just hype; how are those people who said "implementation is still far off" last year doing now?

Talking about empowerment and potential again, I just want to ask who the hell can accurately predict which two projects it will be.
With so many tracks, they talk endlessly, but in the end, it's still those with early advantages that get the meat, while later entrants just drink the broth.
Regarding RWA and real-world implementation, I think most of it is just pie-in-the-sky talk. Give me a break.

The perpetual DEX projects should have been reshuffled a long time ago. Let's bet on who can survive until the end of 2026.

Tired of the saying "winner takes all"... Honestly, it's just about who raises more funds, who markets aggressively. Is there really a genuine technical advantage?

The logic of winner-takes-all sounds great, but I'm more concerned about those projects that get crushed... Can RWA actually be implemented? It feels like it's always being talked about every year.

To be honest, these track analyses are pretty cliché; the key is really who has the actual execution power.
It all sounds right, but in the end, only those two projects will survive... The winner-takes-all idea is something I hear every year.
I'm a bit skeptical about RWA; it still feels like it's on paper...
The perpetual DEX space is already a bloodbath; newcomers basically have no chance.
With so many Meme launchpads exploding, I really want to know which one won't become the next zero...
