Column Article Popularity List TOP 10

PANews has created related posters for the top five popular articles this month to recognize these in-depth and high-quality contents.

No.1 Tiger Research

• Tiger Research is a research, GTM consulting, and investment company focused on the Asian Web 3 market.

• "Tiger Research: In-depth Analysis of the Regulatory Void in the Asian Prediction Market" Currently, there is a lack of clear regulatory policies for prediction markets in Asia, leading to billions of dollars flowing to overseas platforms, resulting in tax losses for governments and inadequate protection for ordinary investors. Western countries have incorporated such platforms into regulation by classifying them as financial derivatives (like in the US) or gambling (like in the UK), achieving compliance. In contrast, in Asia, due to state monopolies on gambling and overly rigid definitions of financial laws regarding products, prediction markets remain in a gray area for a long time. For example, South Korea mainly relies on criminal measures to combat this, while Japan uses complex workarounds similar to "pachinko" to evade laws, failing to achieve formalization.

No.2 danny

• danny is a co-founder of Pundi AI, primarily publishing observations on the crypto market and adept at interpreting from a mathematical perspective.

• "Binance Becomes the New Battleground for Weekend Stock Markets: Using Perp to Seize Pricing Power and bStocks for Inventory and Error Correction System" Binance is attempting to seize pricing power during the closure of traditional US stock markets through a combination of Perp and bStocks. Perp, with its low cost, high leverage, and continuous trading characteristics, has become the engine for generating candidate prices; while bStocks, as the spot inventory layer, provides risk hedging and error correction support for Perp's high-frequency trading through holdings, collateral, on-chain transfers, and lending functions.

No.3 Zuo Ye Wai Bo Shan

• Zuo Ye Wai Bo Shan is a post-95 entrepreneur fully committed to Web 3, focusing on financial games and technology consulting, sharing insights and analyses on the crypto market on social platforms.

• "Binance Ends the Wealth Effect of Exchanges, Trump Starts a New Wave of Wealth Creation" In 2026, crypto exchanges are facing a low point in liquidity and reputation. As the TGE boom fades, exchanges are trying to seek survival by transforming into all-purpose brokerages, incorporating traditional financial assets such as US stocks, Korean stocks, and even A-shares into their trading scope. However, this simple accumulation of varieties has not brought the expected wealth effect. Currently, Coinbase and Robinhood are fiercely competing in the West, while Chinese platforms represented by Binance are facing growth bottlenecks.

No.4 DAN KOE

• Dan Koe is a solo entrepreneur who shares expertise online, originally a web designer, later becoming a freelancer, and then transitioning to earning income through content creation and digital products.

• "Dan Koe: The Counterintuitive Truth, You Don’t Need to Remember Everything You Read" Modern people are trapped in "collection anxiety," mistakenly believing that remembering everything they read equates to learning. True learning is not rote memorization but driven by "output." If the information is important enough, it will naturally settle in practice. It is recommended to view learning as a feedback loop: first set specific goals, directly initiate projects, and then acquire knowledge as needed.

No.5 animajoe

• animajoe mainly focuses on artificial intelligence, semiconductors, macroeconomics, and crypto tokens.

• "When Bottlenecks Begin to Migrate------Interconnection, HBM, and the Repricing of the Entire Storage Empire" On August 4, the storage industry welcomed a significant turning point: SK Hynix and SanDisk released high-bandwidth flash memory standards, while NVIDIA assessed a reduction in HBM configurations. This marks the migration of AI infrastructure bottlenecks from computing units to interconnection layers. With the proliferation of tens of thousands of card clusters, the demand for data transmission bandwidth has surged, and the storage value system is being rewritten. Interconnection technologies (optical interconnection, advanced packaging) have risen to the top priority, with HBM returning to fundamentals.

No.6 Tiger Research

• Tiger Research is a research, GTM consulting, and investment company focused on the Asian Web 3 market.

• "Tiger Research: 700 Trillion Won Flowing Overseas, South Korea is Missing the Entire Crypto Era" Between 2021 and 2026, approximately 700 trillion won flowed from South Korea to overseas. Due to the limitations of the South Korean market to spot trading, it is difficult to meet investors' demands for derivatives, prediction markets, and payment services, leading to a large amount of capital shifting to overseas platforms. In 2025, South Korean investors contributed approximately $3.5 billion in fees to overseas exchanges.

No.7 QQlink

• QQlink is a Web3 super application that integrates encrypted communication, multi-chain wallets, and AI real-time translation, aiming to provide secure and efficient messaging and asset management functions.

• "Fidelity Warns: The Prosperity of AI Agents May Not Be a Feast for Public Chains" US stock researchers investing in TALK pointed out that the AI market is shifting from "hype hardware" to "verifying profits." They believe that Meta selling computing power reflects a shortage of computing power rather than a bubble, and Anthropic's IPO will further clarify the commercialization path of AI. For the second half of the year, they suggest not to be overly pessimistic and to adopt a "soft and hard repair" strategy.

No.8 Biteye

• Biteye is a blockchain research institution and community focused on L1/L2, DeFi, NFT, and Web3.

• "Bitcoin and Ethereum Soar, Eight Altcoins Worth Watching in the Future" Since Trump’s endorsement, the crypto market has seen continuous positive news, with Bitcoin approaching $77,000 and Ethereum rising 20% in a single day. Funds are expected to spread from mainstream coins to altcoins, but it is anticipated that not all coins will rise together; only projects with real users, revenue, and strong value capture can attract funds.

No.9 Metrics Ventures

• Metrics Ventures, abbreviated as MVC, is a secondary market liquidity fund driven by data and research, led by a team of experienced crypto professionals. This team has extensive expertise in primary market incubation and secondary market trading.

• "Metrics Ventures Market Observation: When 'Currency is Worse' Becomes the Norm, How Should Safe-Haven Assets Be Selected?" The US Treasury market has completed pricing against the ineffectiveness of Federal Reserve policies, and in the context of shaken dollar credit, gold and bulk resource assets will prioritize absorbing liquidity. With expectations of slowing marginal growth in AI, digital currencies are unlikely to see excess market trends in the short term. Currently, the bull market trend for RMB assets is clear, and core assets like the STAR Market 50 are worth paying attention to.

No.10 ArkStream Capital

• ArkStream Capital is a crypto-native fund focused on accelerating the development of Web 3.0 unicorns, dedicated to investing in digital assets and new financial markets.

• "ArkStream Capital: From AI Absorption to RWA Rise, Capital Migration in the Crypto Market in 2026" The siphoning effect of US stocks on the crypto market may have peaked in June, and the market may have entered a slow recovery period. Currently, demand for coins is weakening, but demand for trading traditional assets through crypto infrastructure is rapidly rising, and RWA perpetual contracts have become an important growth engine for exchange businesses.
