Here is the Chinese translation of the original content:
[STANDX]
STANDX currently dominates social discussions, driven by its ongoing mainnet launch trading points event and the rapid growth of its auto-yield stablecoin $DUSD, with current TVL of approximately $160 million.
Discussions focus on the platform's institutional-grade matching execution (built by the original Binance Futures founding team) and its unique "poker table-style" trading interface.
Key interactive drivers also include: a 10% points bonus for Binance Wallet users; market rumors of a potential integration with Pendle Finance on January 29; $DUSD's capital efficiency advantage: users can earn passive income while using it as collateral for high leverage perpetual contracts
[BNB]
BNB has become a focal point of discussion due to its relative resilience in 2025, being one of the few mainstream altcoins to experience an increase in value (around +19% year-to-date).
The ecosystem data is also impressive, with BNB Chain leading in daily active users among L1 blockchains, averaging around 4.32 million.
Market attention is also on: Changpeng Zhao's (CZ) year-end AMA following a presidential pardon; significant increase in trading volume; a strategic shift towards AI-driven payments and stablecoin scalability; BNB listing on Gemini; inclusion of opBNB upgrade and native privacy feature in the technical roadmap for 2026.
[TWT]
Trust Wallet (TWT) has seen a significant surge in popularity after its browser extension version 2.68 fell victim to a supply chain attack, resulting in the theft of around $6-7 million in user funds.
The attack, carried out by implanting malicious code to steal seed phrases, prompted an emergency announcement from the official team, urging users to upgrade to version 2.69.
Following CZ's statement that Trust Wallet would fully reimburse the losses and that user funds are "SAFU," market sentiment has somewhat recovered, but the community still criticizes the initial security vulnerability and delayed disclosure.
[MEGAETH]
MEGAETH has gained increased discussion momentum, primarily due to its strategic integration with Mayan Finance and Wormhole, enabling native cross-chain swaps and transfers without the need for wrapped tokens. The community is also highly interested in its financial system-level real-time execution capability, active over-the-counter pre-trading, and anticipation of its mainnet launch and TGE, rumored to potentially occur in early 2026.
[MIDEN]
MIDEN is gaining popularity due to its first offline community event in South Korea and the release of the "Miden Name" identity system, which introduces a more user-friendly "Pay-to-Name" feature.
Community discussions are focused on its ZK native architecture, particularly: client-side execution; and the Actor model for high-performance parallel processing.
As a key privacy layer in the Polygon AggLayer ecosystem, MIDEN has received praise for its programmable privacy capabilities and developer-friendly support for Rust and WebAssembly, with the mainnet expected to launch in 2026.
