In this guide, we are going to discuss some large-cap cryptocurrencies that might be worth the attention of newbies and pro investors. As the crypto segment is gaining momentum after the 2021-2022 crypto winter, large-caps are among the most obvious opportunities on digital asset markets.

在本指南中，我們將討論一些可能值得新手和專業投資者關注的大盤加密貨幣。隨著加密貨幣領域在 2021-2022 年加密貨幣寒冬後勢頭強勁，大盤股成為數位資產市場上最明顯的機會之一。

Top cryptos to watch in 2024: Highlights

2024 年最值得關注的加密貨幣：亮點

The largest cryptocurrencies by market capitalization are responsible for over 85% of the aggregated crypto sphere market cap.

以市值計算最大的加密貨幣佔加密貨幣領域總市值的 85% 以上。

雖然低市值和中市值的山寨幣可以提供更有利可圖的投資機會，但市值最大的加密貨幣波動性較小，因此在加密貨幣市場週期的每個階段都更具可預測性。比特幣（ BTC）很可能仍然是最大的加密貨幣以市值計算的加密貨幣；社區正在等待 2024-2025 年出現新的反彈。以太坊（ETH）將保持其作為對整個 DeFi 生態系統至關重要的最大智能合約平台的地位。美國司法管轄區潛在證券的狀況不會影響Cardano（ ADA）、Solana（SOL）、Avalanche（AVAX）、Chainlink（LINK）等的流行，而Polygon（MATIC）將被POL取代，成為Polygon生態的核心代幣。儘管USDC 可能會被最大的去中心化穩定幣Dai (DAI) 取代，但Dollar Tether (USDT) 和USD Coin (USDC) 可能仍將是兩種主要的穩定幣。XRP 和Binance Coin (BNB) 的法律地位現在更加重要與一年前相比，Ripple 和Binance 團隊在與美國監管機構的殘酷鬥爭中幾乎沒有流血地度過了難關。領先的基於以太坊的L2 平台Arbitrum (ARB) 和Optimism (OP)的核心加密貨幣將繼續成為人們關注的焦點。儘管迷因幣狂熱最瘋狂的日子已經過去，狗狗幣（DOGE）和柴犬（SHIB）仍將留住他們的受眾。

At the same time, we might not be aware of “the next big things” of the upcoming big bull run: Dozens of projects with solid fundamentals and aggressive marketing are yet to be revealed to the general public.

同時，我們可能不知道即將到來的大牛市的「下一件大事」：數十個具有堅實基礎和積極行銷的項目尚未向公眾披露。

What are cryptocurrencies?

什麼是加密貨幣？

Cryptocurrencies are digital or virtual currencies that use cryptography for security and operate on a decentralized network or blockchain. Technically, a blockchain is a sort of distributed database that records and verifies transactions across multiple computers.

加密貨幣是使用加密技術確保安全並在去中心化網路或區塊鏈上運行的數位或虛擬貨幣。從技術上講，區塊鏈是一種分散式資料庫，可以記錄和驗證多台電腦上的交易。

Cryptocurrencies are distinct from traditional fiat currencies as they are not regulated by a central authority, offering a form of financial autonomy and privacy. They can be used for a variety of purposes, including investment, remittances and as a means of payment. The value of cryptocurrencies can be highly volatile, and their legal status varies across countries. Since the inception of Bitcoin in 2009, cryptocurrencies have sparked significant interest and debate regarding their impact on the global financial system.

加密貨幣與傳統的法定貨幣不同，因為它們不受中央機構的監管，並提供了某種形式的財務自主權和隱私。它們可用於多種目的，包括投資、匯款和作為支付手段。加密貨幣的價值可能高度波動，其法律地位在不同國家也各不相同。自 2009 年比特幣問世以來，加密貨幣引發了人們對其對全球金融體系影響的極大興趣和爭論。

What is Bitcoin?

什麼是比特幣？

Bitcoin (BTC) is the first blockchain and, therefore, the first-ever cryptocurrency. It was invented in 2008 by an unknown person or group using the pseudonym Satoshi Nakamoto. The Bitcoin (BTC) vision was realized in 2009, when its implementation was released as open-source software.

比特幣（BTC）是第一個區塊鏈，因此也是第一個加密貨幣。它是由一個不知名的人或團體於 2008 年使用筆名 Satoshi Nakamoto 發明的。比特幣 (BTC) 的願景於 2009 年實現，當時其實現作為開源軟體發布。

Bitcoin (BTC) operates on a peer-to-peer network, allowing users to transact directly without an intermediary like a bank. Transactions are verified by network nodes through cryptography and recorded on a public ledger called a blockchain. The Bitcoin (BTC) supply is capped at 21 million coins. Its security and integrity are preserved by a sophisticated process dubbed Bitcoin (BTC) mining or finding hashes of Bitcoin (BTC) blocks by high-performance computers.

比特幣（BTC）在點對點網路上運行，允許用戶直接進行交易，無需銀行等中介機構。交易由網路節點透過密碼學進行驗證，並記錄在稱為區塊鏈的公共分類帳上。比特幣 (BTC) 的供應量上限為 2,100 萬枚。其安全性和完整性透過稱為比特幣（BTC）挖掘或透過高效能電腦尋找比特幣（BTC）區塊的哈希值的複雜過程來保護。

What are altcoins?

什麼是山寨幣？

Altcoins (short for “alternative coins”) should be referred to as cryptocurrencies other than Bitcoin (BTC). They emerged after Bitcoin's (BTC) success, offering variations or improvements on its technology and use case. Altcoins vary widely in their purposes, from replicating Bitcoin's model with slight changes to providing completely new functionalities, such as smart contracts, privacy enhancements, or different consensus mechanisms like proof-of-stake.

山寨幣（「替代幣」的縮寫）應被稱為比特幣（BTC）以外的加密貨幣。它們是在比特幣（BTC）成功之後出現的，對其技術和用例提供了變化或改進。山寨幣的用途千差萬別，從複製比特幣的模型並稍作修改，到提供全新的功能，例如智能合約、隱私增強或不同的共識機制（例如股權證明）。

Ethereum (ETH) was the first mainstream altcoin with programmable functions. Some altcoins aim to address perceived limitations of Bitcoin, such as transaction speed or energy efficiency.

以太坊（ETH）是第一個具有可編程功能的主流山寨幣。一些山寨幣旨在解決比特幣的明顯局限性，例如交易速度或能源效率。

Top cryptos to watch in 2024: Full list

2024 年最值得關注的加密貨幣：完整列表

In the following index, we are going to display some cryptocurrencies with obvious potential in 2024 and demonstrate their pros and cons.

在下面的索引中，我們將展示一些在 2024 年具有明顯潛力的加密貨幣，並展示它們的優缺點。

2024 年比特幣 (BTC)

Bitcoin (BTC) is the first cryptocurrency and the largest digital asset by market capitalization. Despite being surpassed technically by the majority of altcoins in terms of speed, throughput and resource-efficiency, Bitcoin (BTC) remains the dominant cryptocurrency. In the past years, it evolved into a mature asset compared to Gold, S&P500 Index and so on.

比特幣（BTC）是第一種加密貨幣，也是市值最大的數位資產。儘管在技術上，比特幣 (BTC) 在速度、吞吐量和資源效率方面被大多數山寨幣超越，但它仍然是主導的加密貨幣。在過去的幾年裡，與黃金、S&P500指數等相比，它已經發展成為一種成熟的資產。

比特幣 (BTC) 價格圖表（對數刻度） // 圖片來源：CoinMarketCap

In 2024, Bitcoin (BTC) is set to undergo its fourth halving: Block rewards for miners will be reduced by 50%. This means that BTC as an asset becomes scarcer than ever before. Typically, such events (in 2016 and 2020) were interpreted as bullish catalysts for the Bitcoin (BTC) price. Also, the potential approval of a Bitcoin-based ETF in the U.S. might catalyze a new phase of capital injection into the asset.

2024 年，比特幣 (BTC) 將經歷第四次減半：礦工的區塊獎勵將減少 50%。這意味著比特幣作為一種資產變得比以往任何時候都更加稀缺。通常，此類事件（2016 年和 2020 年）被解讀為比特幣 (BTC) 價格的看漲催化劑。此外，基於比特幣的 ETF 在美國的潛在批准可能會促進對該資產的注資進入新階段。

2024 年以太坊 (ETH)

Launched in 2015, Ethereum (ETH) is the largest smart contracts platform. It means that it acts as a distributed computations platform for decentralized applications, a class of cryptocurrency software programs. Although Ethereum (ETH) is lagging behind many of its analogues when it comes to transactional throughput, it still retains the status of the safest and longest-running blockchain for dApps. Also, it is the backbone of L2 solutions’ ecosystem.

以太坊 (ETH) 於 2015 年推出，是最大的智慧合約平台。這意味著它充當去中心化應用程式（一類加密貨幣軟體程式）的分散式運算平台。儘管以太坊（ETH）在交易吞吐量方面落後於許多同類產品，但它仍然保持著最安全、運行時間最長的 dApp 區塊鏈的地位。此外，它也是 L2 解決方案生態系統的支柱。

In 2024, Ethereum (ETH) will see the activation of EIP 4844 or “proto-danksharding,” an upgrade that will increase throughput and lower transaction costs by 600%. Also, the implementation of “account abstraction” and zero-knowledge technologies on Ethereum (ETH) is underway. As a result, the community is optimistic about its midterm prospects.

2024 年，以太坊 (ETH) 將啟動 EIP 4844 或“proto-danksharding”，這項升級將提高吞吐量並將交易成本降低 600%。此外，以太坊（ETH）上的「帳戶抽象」和零知識技術的實施正在進行中。因此，社會對其中期前景持樂觀態度。

2024 年泰達幣 (USDT)

U.S. Dollar Tether (USDT) by Tether Limited is the largest stablecoin, i.e., cryptocurrency with its price pegged to the U.S. dollar. It is minted by a centralized entity that controls the basket of assets that is “backing” the circulating USDT supply. As of printing time, its market cap exceeded a whopping $90 billion.

Tether Limited 的美元 Tether (USDT) 是最大的穩定幣，即價格與美元掛鉤的加密貨幣。它是由一個中心化實體鑄造的，該實體控制著「支持」流通 USDT 供應的一籃子資產。截至印刷時，其市值已突破 900 億美元。

Tether (USDT) 市值在 2023 年飆升近 50% // 圖片來源：CoinMarketCap

In 2023, USDT made its portfolio way more conservative: It increased the share of cash and its equivalents and U.S. T-bills. This results in stability of USDT, but the platform remains unaudited. Tether (USDT) only publishes “attestations” to prove sufficiency of reserves.

2023 年，USDT 使其投資組合更加保守：增加了現金及其等價物和美國國債的份額。這導致了 USDT 的穩定性，但該平台仍然未經審計。 Tether（USDT）僅發布「證明」來證明儲備充足。

2024 年多邊形 (MATIC)

Polygon (MATIC) initially launched as the first mainstream second-layer platform on top of Ethereum (ETH): It bundles multiple transactions into a single data structure before validating them on the Ethereum (ETH) mainnet. This allows Polygon (MATIC) users to enjoy Ethereum’s level of stability and reliability, but paying reduced fees and at a much higher speed.

Polygon (MATIC) 最初是作為以太坊 (ETH) 之上的第一個主流第二層平台推出的：它將多個交易捆綁到一個資料結構中，然後在以太坊 (ETH) 主網上進行驗證。這使得 Polygon (MATIC) 使用者能夠享受以太坊的穩定性和可靠性，但支付的費用更低，速度更快。

In 2024, Polygon (MATIC) will remain the leader of L2 innovation on Ethereum: It acquired a number of zero-knowledge tech startups to offer the most secure and cost-efficient experience.  At the same time, within the massive Polygon 2.0 upgrade, the MATIC asset will be replaced by POL, a token for Polygon's staking design.

2024年，Polygon（MATIC）仍將是以太坊L2創新的領導者：它收購了多家零知識科技新創公司，以提供最安全、最具成本效益的體驗。同時，在大規模的 Polygon 2.0 升級中，MATIC 資產將被 POL 取代，POL 是 Polygon 質押設計的代幣。

2024 年幣安幣 (BNB)

Binance Coin (BNB) is the core native cryptocurrency of Binance (BNB), the largest cryptocurrency exchange in the world, and BNB Smart Chain, an Ethereum-like smart contracts platform. Initially launched on Ethereum (ETH) for Binance ICO, it then migrated to the native blockchain and is now used as a utility token and an optimal fees instrument on Binance (BNB).

幣安幣（BNB）是全球最大的加密貨幣交易所幣安（BNB）和類以太坊智慧合約平台BNB智慧鏈的核心原生加密貨幣。它最初是在以太坊 (ETH) 上推出的幣安 ICO，然後遷移到本地區塊鏈，現在被用作幣安 (BNB) 上的實用代幣和最佳費用工具。

The BNB price in 2024 will be affected by the outcome of the legal battle between former Binance CEO Changpeng “CZ” Zhao and U.S. regulators. In November 2023, Changpeng Zhao agreed to pay record-breaking fees and step down as CEO. However, the verdict on his personal trial is yet to be announced.

2024 年的 BNB 價格將受到幣安前執行長趙長鵬與美國監管機構之間法律糾紛結果的影響。 2023年11月，趙長鵬同意支付破紀錄的費用並辭去執行長職務。不過，他個人的審判結果尚未公佈。

2024 年狗狗幣 (DOGE)

Launched back in 2013 as a fork of Litecoin (LTC), Dogecoin (DOGE) is the first-ever memetic cryptocurrency. It means that it is based on a semi-ironic ethos and a funny narrative instead of innovation and tech disruption. Dogecoin (DOGE) commemorates Kabosu Shiba Inu dog from the 2013 internet meme.

狗狗幣 (DOGE) 於 2013 年作為萊特幣 (LTC) 的分叉推出，是第一個模因加密貨幣。這意味著它是基於半諷刺的精神和有趣的敘述，而不是創新和技術顛覆。狗狗幣 (DOGE) 是為了紀念 2013 年網路迷因中的 Kabosu Shiba Inu 狗。

狗狗幣 (DOGE) 標誌 // 圖片由狗狗幣提供

As the new spike of Dogecoin (DOGE) popularity was triggered by shilling on Elon Musk’s accounts, announcements of Starlink, Starship, X and Tesla products might catalyze new rallies of the Dogecoin (DOGE) price in 2024. At the same time, just like many other meme coins, Dogecoin (DOGE) is subject to increased volatility.

由於狗狗幣(DOGE) 受歡迎程度的新一輪飆升是由 Elon Musk 帳戶上的先令引發的，Starlink、Starship、X 和Tesla 產品的發布可能會催化狗狗幣(DOGE) 價格在2024 年出現新一輪上漲。許多其他迷因硬幣，狗狗幣（DOGE）的波動性都會增加。

2024 年卡爾達諾 (ADA)

Cardano (ADA) is the second-largest proof-of-stake (PoS) network and one of the most decentralized blockchain networks in the Web3 segment by various indicators. Introduced by Charles Hoskinson in 2017, Cardano (ADA) released staking and smart contracts in the previous bull run.

從各種指標來看，卡爾達諾（ADA）是第二大權益證明（PoS）網絡，也是 Web3 領域最去中心化的區塊鏈網路之一。 Cardano (ADA) 由 Charles Hoskinson 於 2017 年推出，在上一次牛市中發布了質押和智能合約。

For Cardano (ADA), the upcoming rally will be the first one it will meet equipped with a growing dApps ecosystem. Despite much criticism from Ethereum (ETH) maximalists, it gained traction in the NFT and DeFi segments. The net TVL of Cardano-based dApps exceeds $255 million, getting closer to multi-month highs.

對於卡爾達諾（ADA）來說，即將到來的集會將是它在不斷發展的 dApp 生態系統中遇到的第一次集會。儘管受到以太坊 (ETH) 極端主義者的許多批評，但它在 NFT 和 DeFi 領域獲得了關注。基於 Cardano 的 dApp 的淨 TVL 超過 2.55 億美元，接近數月高點。

瑞波幣 2024 年

XRP, the core native cryptocurrency of the XRP Ledger blockchain is a veteran digital asset known since 2012. Its popularity is associated with Ripple Inc., a U.S.-based fintech heavyweight. Ripple uses XRP as a medium of exchange in its numerous cross-border payments systems known as “on-demand liquidity corridors.”

XRP是XRP Ledger區塊鏈的核心原生加密貨幣，是自2012年以來眾所周知的老牌數位資產。它的受歡迎程度與美國金融科技巨頭Ripple Inc.有關。 Ripple 在其眾多被稱為「按需流動性走廊」的跨境支付系統中使用 XRP 作為交換媒介。

Since December 2020, Ripple and its directors have been accused of illegally selling unregistered securities to U.S. citizens in the form of XRP. However, as Ripple scored a major legal win in Q3, 2023, the prospects for the XRP price in 2024 might be optimistic. At the same time, the process is very far from being over.

自 2020 年 12 月以來，Ripple 及其董事被指控以 XRP 的形式向美國公民非法出售未經註冊的證券。然而，隨著 Ripple 在 2023 年第三季取得重大法律勝利，XRP 價格在 2024 年的前景可能會很樂觀。同時，這個過程還遠遠沒有結束。

2024 年樂觀 (OP)

Optimism (rebranded as OP Mainnet in 2023, but still known under its initial name) is one of the largest second-layer platforms on top of Ethereum (ETH). It means that it indexes transaction data and verifies it on the Ethereum (ETH) mainnet in compressed form to save its computational capacity.

Optimism（於 2023 年更名為 OP 主網，但仍以其最初的名稱為人所知）是以太坊 (ETH) 之上最大的第二層平台之一。這意味著它對交易資料進行索引並以壓縮形式在以太坊（ETH）主網路上進行驗證，以節省其運算能力。

Despite the savage rivalry in the L2s segment, Optimism remains a smart bet for dApps thanks to low transactional fees, detailed documentation and the “network effect.” Also, its team released OP Stack, an instrument for the development of Optimism-like commercial blockchains by third parties.

儘管 L2s 領域競爭激烈，但由於交易費用低、文件詳細和“網絡效應”，樂觀仍然是 dApp 的明智選擇。此外，其團隊還發布了 OP Stack，這是第三方開發類似 Optimism 的商業區塊鏈的工具。

2024 年索拉納 (SOL)

SOL is the native cryptocurrency of the Ethereum (ETH) rival Solana, a proof-of-history blockchain launched in 2019. Thanks to advanced tech design, it can process thousands of transactions per second for negligible fees. At the same time, in the past, the network went through a series of painful outages and received strong criticism.

SOL 是以太坊(ETH) 競爭對手Solana 的原生加密貨幣，Solana 是2019 年推出的歷史證明區塊鏈。由於先進的技術設計，它每秒可以處理數千筆交易，而費用可以忽略不計。同時，過去該網絡經歷了一系列痛苦的中斷並受到強烈批評。

In 2024, Solana (SOL) is expected to get rid of its “FTX Legacy”: Many products incubated by FTX and its associated trading platform Alameda Research were running on Solana (SOL). As such, SOL might be in the spotlight for the next bull run as it has managed to keep its large and passionate community.

到 2024 年，Solana (SOL) 預計將擺脫其「FTX 遺產」：FTX 及其關聯交易平台 Alameda Research 孵化的許多產品都在 Solana (SOL) 上運行。因此，SOL 可能會成為下一次多頭市場的焦點，因為它成功地保留了龐大而熱情的社區。

2024 年柴犬 (SHIB)

Launched in August 2020 by an anonymous team, Shiba Inu (SHIB) is the second largest meme cryptocurrency inspired by the success of Dogecoin (DOGE). The token started as a typical “meme coin,” but step by step it evolved into a full-stack ecosystem with its own exchange, dApps and even a native Polygon-like L2 blockchain.

Shiba Inu (SHIB) 由匿名團隊於 2020 年 8 月推出，是受狗狗幣 (DOGE) 成功啟發的第二大迷因加密貨幣。該代幣最初是一種典型的“模因幣”，但一步一步演變成一個全端生態系統，擁有自己的交易所、dApp，甚至是原生的類似 Polygon 的 L2 區塊鏈。

At the same time, the success of SHIB in 2024 will depend on the overall status of meme coins. Major technical and community announcements might catalyze the SHIB price as well as periodical token burn reports, but these spikes are unlikely to be sustainable.

同時，SHIB在2024年的成功將取決於meme幣的整體狀況。主要技術和社群公告可能會促進 SHIB 價格以及定期代幣銷毀報告，但這些高峰不太可能持續。

2024 年美元硬幣 (USDC)

Developed by U.S. conglomerate Circle, USD Coin (USDC) is the second largest USD-pegged stablecoin. As of early 2024, its market capitalization equals $24.4 billion in equivalent. The USDC cryptocurrency is natively available on all mainstream smart contract platforms and is listed by top cryptocurrency exchanges.

美元硬幣 (USDC) 由美國企業 Circle 開發，是第二大與美元掛鉤的穩定幣。截至 2024 年初，其市值相當於 244 億美元。 USDC加密貨幣原生在所有主流智慧合約平台上都可用，並在頂級加密貨幣交易所上市。

USDC's capitalization started shrinking in March 2023 amid rumors about its fund insufficiency caused by the insolvency of Silvergate and other crypto-friendly banks in the U.S. At the same time, in Q3-Q4, 2023, the team of the stablecoin made a number of hyped tech announcements, so USDC will likely remain a reliable modern alternative to Tether (USDT).

由於美國Silvergate 等加密貨幣友善銀行破產導致USDC 資金不足的傳言，USDC 的市值自2023 年3 月開始縮水。同時，2023 年第三季至第四季度，該穩定幣團隊進行了多次炒作技術公告，因此 USDC 可能仍然是 Tether (USDT) 的可靠現代替代品。

2024 年套利 (ARB)

Arbitrum (ARB) by Offchain Labs is a dominant second-layer platform on top of Ethereum (ETH). It is responsible for over 51% of all value deposited to second-layer platforms on top of Ethereum (ETH). Hundreds of dApps have been deployed to Arbitrum (ARB) since its launch in mainnet in August 2021.

Offchain Labs 的 Arbitrum (ARB) 是以太坊 (ETH) 之上的一個主導的第二層平台。它佔存入以太坊 (ETH) 之上第二層平台的所有價值的 51% 以上。自 2021 年 8 月在主網上線以來，Arbitrum (ARB) 已部署了數百個 dApp。

Arbitrum (ARB) 仍然佔據以太坊 L2 的主導地位 // 圖片來源：L2Beat

In general, the Ethereum (ETH) community is optimistic about the prospects of the Arbitrum (ARB) price for 2024. The token underpins the leading L2 platform that recently introduced Arbitrum Stylus, a protocol designed to move the Arbitrum (ARB) blockchain beyond the Solidity programming language. With Stylus, developers of Rust and C++ will also be able to run their dApps on Ethereum Virtual Machine.

總體而言，以太坊(ETH) 社群對2024 年Arbitrum (ARB) 價格的前景持樂觀態度。該代幣支撐著領先的L2 平台，該平台最近推出了Arbitrum Stylus，該協議旨在使Arbitrum (ARB ) 區塊鏈超越Solidity 程式語言。借助 Stylus，Rust 和 C++ 的開發人員還可以在以太坊虛擬機器上運行他們的 dApp。

2024 年波場 (TRX)

Launched in mainnet in 2018, Tron (TRX) was the second-largest blockchain by TVL behind Ethereum (ETH) for years. It gained popularity thanks to very cheap transactions, fast block finality and stable performance. Tron (TRX) is part of the ecosystem of cryptocurrency services associated with Justin Sun, who is also the owner of BitTorrent and the HTX exchange (formerly Huobi).

Tron (TRX) 於 2018 年在主網推出，多年來一直是 TVL 僅次於以太坊 (ETH) 的第二大區塊鏈。它憑藉非常便宜的交易、快速的區塊終結性和穩定的性能而受到歡迎。 Tron (TRX) 是與孫宇晨相關的加密貨幣服務生態系統的一部分，孫宇晨也是 BitTorrent 和 HTX 交易所（原始火幣網）的所有者。

In 2024, Tron (TRX) will remain the dominant blockchain for USDT transfers: Over 50% of the aggregated USDT supply is issued on top of the Tron (TRX) blockchain. Meanwhile, Justin Sun will face severe legal pressure in 2024: Troubles with U.S. regulators might be an obstacle for TRX's growth.

到 2024 年，Tron (TRX) 將仍然是 USDT 轉帳的主導區塊鏈：超過 50% 的 USDT 總供應量是在 Tron (TRX) 區塊鏈上發行的。同時，孫宇晨將在2024年面臨嚴峻的法律壓力：美國監管機構的麻煩可能會成為TRX成長的障礙。

2024 年 Chainlink (LINK)

Chainlink (LINK) is the first-ever decentralized network of blockchain oracles. It facilitates the transfer of data between on-chain applications (dApps) and off-chain systems (weather trackers, points of sales and so on). As such, Chainlink (LINK) is a critically important service for integrating blockchains into real-world economies. LINK, the core native cryptocurrency of Chainlink (LINK), gained much traction in the 2020-2021 bull run.

Chainlink (LINK) 是第一個區塊鏈預言機去中心化網路。它促進了鏈上應用程式（dApp）和鏈下系統（天氣追蹤器、銷售點等）之間的資料傳輸。因此，Chainlink (LINK) 是將區塊鏈整合到現實世界經濟中的至關重要的服務。 LINK 是 Chainlink (LINK) 的核心原生加密貨幣，在 2020-2021 年牛市中獲得了很大關注。

In 2024, Chainlink's (LINK) growth might yet again be catalyzed by an array of solid partnerships or an aggressive social media promotion campaign by “LINK marines,” a group of passionate Chainlink (LINK) supporters.

2024 年，Chainlink (LINK) 的成長可能會再次受到一系列穩固的合作夥伴關係或「LINK Marines」（一群熱情的 Chainlink (LINK) 支持者）積極的社群媒體推廣活動的推動。

In total, the aggregated capitalization of the cryptocurrency segment is $1.73 trillion, which is 43.2% lower compared to the all-time high registered in November 2021.

整體而言，加密貨幣領域的總資本為 1.73 兆美元，比 2021 年 11 月創下的歷史新高低 43.2%。

Wrapping up

包起來

The cryptocurrency segment meets 2024 with cautious optimism. In general, the segment is waiting for the approvals of Bitcoin and Ethereum spot ETFs, the fourth Bitcoin (BTC) halving, the EIP 4844 upgrade on Ethereum, the MATIC-to-POL migration in Polygon, the end of legal battles Binance, Ripple and Tron are involved in. The outcomes of these processes might either trigger the next bull run or ruin it.

加密貨幣領域以謹慎樂觀的態度迎接 2024 年。總體而言，該領域正在等待比特幣和以太坊現貨 ETF 的批准、第四次比特幣 (BTC) 減半、以太坊 EIP 4844 升級、Polygon 的 MATIC 到 POL 遷移、幣安、Ripple 法律糾紛的結束這些過程的結果可能會引發下一次牛市，也可能會毀掉它。

The meme coin segment might be overshadowed by new trending narratives (real-world assets, liquid staking, AI coins and so on), while stablecoins will struggle with macroeconomic uncertainty and regulatory hostility.

迷因幣領域可能會被新的趨勢敘事（現實世界資產、流動性質押、人工智慧幣等）所掩蓋，而穩定幣將與宏觀經濟的不確定性和監管敵意作鬥爭。
