In the 2026 crypto market, I am most optimistic about these directions.

First is ETH. As the core support for future financial settlement layers, Ethereum's pure collateral properties will become increasingly prominent in the upcoming cycle. As on-chain financial infrastructure improves, ETH's value anchoring will become clearer.

Next is SYRUP. This project holds the core ownership driving the largest on-chain asset management network. With the expansion of the DeFi ecosystem, its potential should not be underestimated.

The story of PENDLE is also worth paying attention to. The demand for yield-generating products in DeFi continues to grow, and PENDLE is a key player in advancing this sector.

ETHFI represents an interesting direction—it has already integrated into my daily life. The EtherFi card is the daily consumption tool I use, indicating that product-market fit has been achieved. Mass adoption is only a matter of time.

I am optimistic about HYPE leading a new era of decentralized derivatives trading. As a top-tier perpDEX, it is becoming a bridge for stock trading to migrate onto the blockchain.

Finally, META. This launch platform's innovative mechanism of safeguarding holder rights through ownership tokens should unlock more potential in 2026.

These are my most steadfast beliefs about the crypto market next year.

SYRUP6.24%

PENDLE3.03%

ETHFI0.97%

I don't know why I always feel ETHFI is undervalued... I use that card every day, so it's quite real. I'm not so sure about SYRUP and PENDLE, need to take another look, but ETH is definitely stable. The HYPE direction is interesting, perpDEX is really hot, but I don't know how long it can last. META's narrative sounds good, but I think we have to wait a bit. Really... your list is all late-wave tracks. Wait, are you really holding these or just talking on paper? I don't quite understand the yield farming logic of PENDLE, can someone explain? Everyone's optimistic, but it might be a bit superficial haha, feels like choosing any two might have similar results. But ETHFI does have PM fit, I agree with that. If next year's market isn't good, all of these will be left behind, just depends on how BTC moves.

Wait, is the ETHFI card really useful? I haven't felt it 🤔. But the logic behind ETH is indeed solid; its position as the settlement layer is well established.

eth is still that eth, the eternal blue chip, but I need to check out syrup, haven't heard much about it pendle's yield strategy is indeed attractive, I've been using it for a while ethfi card is used daily, the product experience is excellent, just waiting to see if it can gain traction later hype's perpDEX is okay, but there are quite a few competitors meta's ownership token design is indeed innovative, but how it will perform in 2026 depends on the market sentiment
