Panama, July 19, 2025 – As Bitcoin smashes through the $120,000 mark and market sentiment surges, HTX, a leading global cryptocurrency exchange takes a more measured approach, cutting through the noise to spotlight crypto assets with strong fundamentals and credible tailwinds. Now in its eighth report, HTX’s Crypto Gem Hunt reinforces the platform’s philosophy of value investing, early discovery, and quality priority, curating a list of seven standout assets that combine market momentum with long-term narrative. This is not merely a hotlist of weekly top gainers. It’s a forward-looking curation of projects positioned to outperform over longer cycles.
The Selected Seven Assets: From Meme Coins and GameFi to DeFi and L1 Narratives
HTX’s Crypto Gem Hunt #8 features seven cherry-picked assets from several trending sectors with prosperous narratives. These sectors cover meme coins, GameFi, DeFi and RWA innovations, and public blockchain infrastructure.
L1 Public Chain: Time-Honored Infrastructure, New Catalyst
● TRON ($TRX) | Rated S: TRON’s native token $TRX was recently adopted by Nasdaq-listed firm SRM as part of its strategic reserve, making TRON one of the first blockchain networks bridging into U.S. capital markets. This also makes TRON as a battle-tested Layer 1 network with a fresh off-chain narrative. While its price move of +16.7% is modest, its global exposure and off-chain integration signal a longer-term value growth.
● BONK ($BONK): As one of Solana’s OG meme coins, $BONK is back in the spotlight, thanks to the Solana ecosystem revival. According to LetsBONK.fun, BONK has surpassed Pump.fun in on-chain activity, gaining a 193.2% surge over the period.
● MemeCore ($M): The top gainer, with a jaw-dropping +378.3% performance. Recently listed on both HTX and BN futures markets, its liquidity and social buzz continue to scale.
● Banana For Scale ($BANANAS31): A dark horse from the BNB Chain, up 347% since launch. Fueled by the light-hearted vibe and community energy, its memetic power still shows further viral marketing potential.
● Build On BNB ($BOBBSC): Another rising star of meme coin on BNB Smart Chain, $BOBBSC has surged over 200%, leveraging the BNB ecosystem’s benefits. It now plays at a low market cap, ideal for early value investment.
GameFi: Legacy Tokens, New Momentum
● FUNToken ($FUN): A veteran in the GameFi space, now seeing renewed interest. With a robust tokenomics model and real in-game utility, $FUN has rebounded nearly by 94%, positioning itself as a strong recovery asset in the GameFi comeback story.
DeFi + RWA: Real-World Asset Tokenization Heats Up
● Maple Finance ($SYRUP): The rising star of DeFi’s institutional pivot, specializing in on-chain credit and RWA lending. While Maple is tokenizing high-quality real-world assets with strong compliance narratives, $SYRUP has gained a 71.1% increase since its launch on HTX, driven by demand for yield-generating, regulation-friendly assets.
Beyond the Charts: Why These Projects Matter
These seven assets in HTX’s Crypto Gem Hunt #8 share a key trait: they are actively delivering on their narratives, not just promising them. From TRON’s growing real-world footprint to BONK’s strong rise on Solana, from the explosive virality of MemeCore and Build On BNB to the yield-driven momentum of Maple behind RWA’s building, these aren’t flash-in-the-pan plays. They’re structurally supported stories with runway left to go.
HTX’s research team carefully tracks narrative fulfillment, not just speculation. This forward-focused methodology aims to help users identify long-term value, especially as retail sentiment continues to chase short-term price spikes. As the market heats up and narratives rotate at breakneck speed, the report stands as a reminder that the next bull cycle won’t be won by hype alone and the true gems may already be on-chain yet underexposed.
