DWF Founder: The crypto market is close to bottoming out, and behind-the-scenes M&A activity is very active

DWF Labs founder Andrei Grachev stated, "I believe the crypto market is now close to the bottom, and there may be about a 15% fluctuation around the Bitcoin price. This does not mean that it can only go up afterward, but it will drive more funds into the market. Although professional investors are still deploying capital, especially into RWA (real-world assets) and projects with large-scale and bold visions, there is almost no capital inflow from direct market purchases. In my view, making a new project popular and attracting attention is much easier than reviving and promoting old projects. This is also why I believe most altcoins will rise after this bear market, except for those that truly have real business and commercial expansion—these will naturally be driven up by the overall market's future growth.

Retail-driven trading volume, or so-called fool's trading, is currently mainly flowing into PumpFun, with some going to Polymarket, but the world will not change because of this. When the market starts to recover and prices begin to rise, these people will follow, buying what whales are currently buying, as well as the new tokens I mentioned earlier. Behind the scenes, merger and acquisition activities are very active, with many projects and companies being acquired, some of which are planning to go public with at least some revenue. Because the long-term growth of the crypto industry is not in question, it's just a matter of time; the issue is survival rate."
