Is the Fed about to ease up? One of the candidates for the next chair, Hassett, recently hinted at it, and the market has now priced in an 87% chance of a rate cut in December. If the money really starts flowing, the crypto market is bound to heat up again.

At a time like this, a few coins are worth discussing:

On the ETH side, the Fusaka upgrade just went live, cutting Layer2 transaction fees in half. After holding the $3,050 line, institutions have continued to buy in through ETFs. With technical improvements and a warming macro environment, $3,400 might just be a phase target.

Looking at ASTER, the project team directly burned 77.8 million tokens—a rare move. With deflationary mechanics and a full-featured DEX going live, it’s clear the project is moving from concept to real-world application. With less selling pressure, price flexibility could increase.

As for DOGE, there’s not much more to say—community sentiment is always the biggest variable. Calls for $1 and even $2 are everywhere, and Musk hasn’t even started tweeting yet. If liquidity really pours in, no one can predict the explosive potential of a meme coin like this.

Policy expectations, tech upgrades, token deflation, community hype—all these narratives are in play. ETH is likely the choice for those who value technical fundamentals, ASTER is for those looking to play the deflation angle, and DOGE—it really depends on whether you believe in the power of sentiment.

What do you think of this round of opportunities? Which direction do you lean toward?
