ARC and UFD rose against the trend to new highs. The market is cold. Have you caught the golden dog? | What is meme hyping today?
At the latest interest rate meeting of the Federal Reserve last night, it was announced that the benchmark policy rate would be lowered by 25 basis points, from 4.25% to 4.5%. Although this result was in line with market expectations, the hawkish wording in the statement and the adjustment of economic forecasts had a relatively obvious negative impact on market sentiment.
Today's cryptocurrency market opened in a bleak manner, with the prices of major mainstream coins and altcoins falling significantly. Bitcoin fell below $100,000 on the morning of the 19th, and Ethereum fell from $3,906 to $3,543. According to Coinglass data, the entire network had a liquidation of $843 million in the past 24 hours, including a liquidation of $743 million in long orders and a liquidation of $100 million in short orders.
However, in the market's general decline, AI concept coins represented by ARC and "Fartcoin" concept coins represented by UFD stood out. Not only were they not affected by the cold market environment, but they rose strongly and set new highs frequently, becoming the two well-deserved golden dogs today.
Although the market sentiment was cold today, affected by the popularity of large-volume tokens such as Fat Penguin, UFD, and FARTCOIN, the 24h trading volume on the Solana chain has increased significantly compared with the previous few days, and the overall market trading volume remains at a high level.
AI Concept
ARC
ARC is a platform for the development of AI agents driven by the Rust framework (called RIG). As a tool for the AI field, it is suitable for AI applications that require high optimization and high performance. In the early morning of the 19th, the arc project revealed the following on Twitter space:
1. ARC uses Solana's "native" Rust language to build an open source AI agent framework, the development language is accessible, and there will be close cooperation with Solana in the future.
2. There are more than 1,000 stars on GitHub, and it is still increasing.
3. ARC created an agent launchpad and bound the Arc token to the lp of each agent, which is conducive to integrating the ARC token into the reward mechanism economic model. Therefore, ARC is also called Virtual on Solana.
The above shows that ARC is a team with technology and strength, and is constantly innovating and seeking cooperation and development.
In the early morning of the 19th, the market value of ARC began to rise and maintained a strong growth momentum. At the same time, the Federal Reserve announced a 25 basis point cut in the benchmark policy rate at its latest interest rate meeting last night. The hawkish wording in the statement and the adjustment of economic forecasts had a negative impact on market sentiment. The prices of Bitcoin, Ethereum, Solana and altcoins all fell significantly. ARC maintained its stability step by step in the downward trend of the market and broke through the previous high to 244.6M, and maintained strong growth momentum, with an extremely impressive performance.
