Abstract generation in progress

【BiTu】Asset management giant Grayscale has announced the latest asset valuation progress. This update introduces 36 new digital assets into the scope of review, covering smart contract platforms, DeFi finance, consumer culture, AI applications, and utilities across multiple sectors.

In terms of distribution, assets in the smart contract ecosystem and financial sector account for the highest proportions, reflecting the current hotspots in the entire crypto market. Grayscale’s move indicates that these projects are undergoing rigorous due diligence processes, including technical assessments, risk analysis, team background checks, and other multidimensional reviews.

It is important to note that being listed on the review list does not necessarily mean they will be included in products. This list simply indicates that the Grayscale team is actively evaluating the investment potential of these assets. Whether they are approved and when they go live will depend on specific compliance and market conditions. For these project teams, being able to enter the institutional-level evaluation scope itself is a positive signal, but investors should still conduct their own research.

actually, let's break this down real quick - grayscale doing dd on 36 alts doesn't mean they're buying tomorrow lol. it's just the starting line, not the finish. the hard part is compliance theater + market timing, ngl

Grayscale is back to harvest the retail investors again, with 36 altcoins entering the candidate list. Probably less than half of them will make it in the end.

Grayscale's recent move is quite interesting, with 36 new tokens added to the investigation list, but only a few will actually make it onto the platform.

I just want to see who can finally break through. Smart Contract and DeFi are the main focuses; these two sectors are already saturated. Are there any new stories?

Being on the list doesn't mean they'll go live. Don't get caught up in the hype, everyone.

Trust me, wait for the official announcement. This kind of suspense is the easiest way to get rug-pulled.

All those DeFi projects seem pretty similar. Why are people still chasing them?

Grayscale is at it again, cutting into the newbies. Just the list of 36 new coins being considered can get people excited... Honestly, how many of them will actually make it through?

Grayscale is back to harvesting profits, this time auditing 36 altcoins at once. Hold on, buddy.

It's the same old trick—once you're on the investigation list, they start hyping it up. By the time it actually launches, they've already moved on.

DeFi and smart contracts are indeed hot right now, but being on the list doesn't mean it's launched. It depends on subsequent compliance.

But to be fair, being noticed by Grayscale also indicates that the market is indeed paying attention to these sectors.

I bet five dollars that at least half of them will end up failing in the end.

Grayscale's recent move is somewhat impressive; 36 altcoins have been added to the watchlist. But how many will actually go live... It seems most will just be along for the ride.
