The 2025 crypto market narrative shows a clear divergence. According to industry data, the RWA (Real-World Asset Tokenization) track performed the best, with a full-year increase of 185.76%, making it the undisputed dark horse.

Layer 1 public chains followed closely, with an increase of 80.31%, continuing to demonstrate vitality. Projects focused on the "Made in the USA" concept gained a 30.62% rise.

In contrast, other tracks are less optimistic. Meme coins fell by 31.61%, DeFi ecosystems declined by 34.79%, and Layer 2 solutions plummeted by 40.63%. AI concept projects also performed poorly last year, with an overall decline of 50.18%. The most painful was the DEX track, which dropped by 55.53%. As for the Solana ecosystem, it also faces significant adjustment pressures.

This data reflects that in 2025, investors' enthusiasm for RWA and foundational public chains clearly exceeds their optimism for Layer 2, AI, and DEX tracks. The market trend shift highlights how important it is to choose the right narrative direction.

Haha, RWA directly skyrocketed 185%. Why did I go all-in on AI and DEX instead? Should have just quietly farmed RWA's gains earlier. Now I can only rely on self-investment. The 55% drop in Layer2 hurts to watch, crazy re-investment near zeroing out. So now the only way to break even is through L1, or continue free-riding on airdrops and waiting for a rebound? This market really jumps back and forth. Choosing the wrong narrative directly cuts the leeks. Whoever got in early on RWA this morning is eating well. The electricity cost folks got left behind again. This is called choosing the right direction, but really it’s about who has faster information. By the way, how long until DEX recovers? Going all-in now is probably a death wish. Life is like a dream. AI coins are zeroed out, but RWA saved my life.

RWA 185%？Wow, this is the real opportunity. Those who looked down on it before must be regretting it now.

185.76%？ If this number is real, the collateralization ratio of RWA must be extremely exaggerated. The subsequent liquidation risk thresholds have probably already triggered wave after wave.

RWA really is amazing, an outrageous 185% surge. What about those who hyped L2 back then? Now they all stay silent, haha. --- The DEX has fallen so much, it feels like choosing the wrong track really ruins everything. --- I'm just wondering why AI is still falling, even though it was hyped so aggressively... --- L1 still has some potential, but RWA is on a monster level, forget about the others. --- This market, it all depends on who can bet on the right narrative; everything else is just stories. --- Meme coins down 31%? I need to think about whether I should cut my losses. --- Missed the boat on that RWA wave, now I can only watch others make money. --- Honestly, the prospects of Layer 2 have been seriously overestimated; I only realize it now. --- The Solana ecosystem is also adjusting, it feels like the entire public chain narrative is about to change. --- Hey, the US-made concept only rose 30%, that's too conservative.

Is it true that RWA surged by 185%? Why does it seem like no one around is making money... --- Once again, the L1 hype has passed. I wish I had heavily invested in it. --- DEX dropped 55%. Oh my, what about my liquidity mining? --- The meme coins have fallen so much. Are people still trading them? --- Can choosing the right narrative really make money? I haven't chosen anything right. --- RWA is rising so rapidly. Are all the investors just catching the bag? --- Layer 2 is done for. Now Ethereum has to panic too. --- AI projects have declined by 50%. Why was there no warning during the promotion back then? --- The US manufacturing concept only rose 30%. Might as well just buy any L1 token randomly. --- The Sol ecosystem is under so much pressure. How can ecosystem projects survive? --- I just want to know who is making money in RWA. Where are the real data?
