What Happened?
Last week, global financial markets experienced severe volatility due to multiple factors:
Macro Level: The aftershock of Trump's "reciprocal tariffs" continued, and the Strait of Hormuz blockade entered its third week. US March PPI rose 3.8% year-over-year, exceeding expectations; markets remained highly vigilant about the April 15 CPI data (expected month-over-month +1.0%). CME FedWatch showed rate cut expectations have been postponed to September 2027. WTI crude oil maintained above $110/barrel, while gold fluctuated in the $4,550-4,700 range.
At the industry level, three major developments are worth noting:
- Goldman Sachs Entry: On April 14, Goldman Sachs officially filed for a Bitcoin Premium Income ETF, which generates income by selling options while providing BTC exposure. This marks another Wall Street giant entering crypto yield products after BlackRock. (Source: Goldman Sachs website, Bloomberg)
- Regulatory Uncertainty: After passing the House, the CLARITY Act faces a two-week deadline for markup vote in the Senate Banking Committee. If not passed, it may be delayed until after 2030. Coinbase CEO renewed support for the bill, with intensive industry lobbying. (Source: CoinDesk, Politico)
- Security Incident: Kraken publicly disclosed being extorted by a criminal group, with limited customer data from approximately 2,000 accounts accessed (0.02% of total), but core systems and funds were unaffected. Kraken refused to pay ransom, triggering industry discussions about exchange internal data security. (Source: Kraken website, The Block)
Platform Level: MEXC underwent a comprehensive brand upgrade on April 8, 2026, marking its 8th anniversary, establishing the new brand proposition "Zero Fee, Infinite Opportunities," signifying its evolution from a cryptocurrency exchange to a unified gateway for global assets. This upgrade not only revolutionized the visual system featuring the "infinity symbol" but also deeply iterated the underlying engine to achieve ultimate trading speed, low latency, and low slippage.
What's the Impact on Traders?
- Goldman Sachs ETF: Signals Bitcoin's evolution from price speculation to yield-generating asset, potentially attracting traditional "income-seeking" capital. Historical experience shows major institutional filings often boost BTC short-term volatility and trading volume.
- CLARITY Act: If passed, will provide clear regulatory framework for the US crypto industry (SEC/CFTC jurisdiction division, stablecoin rules), reducing compliance uncertainty, benefiting long-term institutional capital; if it fails, may intensify global regulatory fragmentation. Current Polymarket shows approximately 58% probability of passage this year.
- Kraken Incident: Although impact is limited, it highlights risks of exchange internal data access. User trust in CEX security may fluctuate short-term, with platforms emphasizing security records benefiting.
- Macro Environment: The combination of inflation + geopolitics + delayed rate cuts has surged demand for safe-haven assets (gold, crude oil) and alternative derivatives. Time and capital constraints of traditional tools are driving traders toward 24/7, high-leverage, zero-fee platforms like MEXC.

2. Last Week's New Listings Overview: AI Agent and DeFi Infrastructure Lead
Last week, MEXC listed 【12】 new coins, covering multiple hot sectors including 【AI/DeFi/Meme/RWA, etc.】.
Key New Coin Highlights:
- ENM: ENI Minds (ENM) is an Agent-native interactive operating system that enables collaboration between AI agents and real users. Through task-driven interaction models, verifiable on-chain execution, and behavioral tagging mechanisms, it transforms Agent calls, executions, and feedback into traceable, composable, and reusable on-chain states, providing a native runtime environment for AI applications.
- GPAD: GamePad (GPAD) is an intelligent execution and runtime infrastructure designed for DeFi, aimed at solving execution efficiency, computing power supply, and system stability issues. By integrating execution layers, resources, and governance mechanisms, it provides continuous computing power and intelligent scheduling capabilities for financial protocols, enabling DeFi to evolve from static contracts to long-running, adaptive on-chain financial systems.
- 共建: Build N Build (共建) is a decentralized token project based on Binance Smart Chain (BSC), inspired by user chinh132hn's tweet about community collaboration and building. The project aims to promote community collaborative building and collective innovation, aligning with the popular trend of crypto technology facilitating sharing economy and decentralized networks. The token relies on blockchain technology and smart contracts to ensure transaction transparency and security, enabling peer-to-peer transactions without intermediaries. Its core mechanism is to incentivize active participation of community members through token rewards, encouraging collective innovation. The token is mainly used for decentralized trading, collaborative project development, as a trading medium, and a tool to incentivize community contributions. Founder identity is not disclosed, and project value depends on community participation and technical development progress.
3. Top 5 Gainers: GENIUS Surged 23x in a Single Week, Beware of Low Liquidity Risks
Last week, multiple coins on the platform performed brilliantly. Here are the Top 5 Weekly Gainers:
Rank | Coin | Peak Gain |
GENIUS | +2,322.55% | |
MEZO | +229.41% | |
扭羊歌 | +211.06% | |
PAW | +130.75% | |
BELIEF | +125.70% |
Note: According to publicly available information across the network, GENIUS on last week's gainers list showed no clear major positive developments in news or technical aspects. Its over 23x gain was primarily driven by small fund pumps under extremely low liquidity and community FOMO sentiment; MEZO, 扭羊歌, PAW, and BELIEF are all low-cap, low-circulation tokens, whose rises lack support from large on-chain purchases or ecosystem progress, more inclined to short-term fund rotation hype on "name concepts" (such as AI, Meme) during periods of hot spot scarcity. Overall, the common characteristic of this gainers list is: no fundamental drivers, purely caused by concentrated buying and chase sentiment under minimal liquidity, with participants facing extremely high drawdown risks.
