Panama City, Panama, September 18th, 2025, Chainwire
This year marks the 12th anniversary of HTX. Over the past twelve years, through market ups and downs, HTX has consistently upheld the principle of “user-first”, continuously refining its products, enhancing security, and improving service. On the occasion of its 12th anniversary, HTX is upgrading its “Crypto Gem Hunt” to “HTX Select”, enabling a more comprehensive screening of valuable assets
This edition of “HTX Select” specifically filters out 12 high-quality value projects deserving attention in the near term that are already listed on HTX. They cover both mainstream and emerging sectors like public chains (L1), DeFi, MEME, DeSci, etc. Each selected project has undergone both market testing and HTX’s multi-dimensional risk control evaluation. Behind this “selected” asset change is an adjustment in listing strategy responsive to market shifts: moving from early discovery and rapid listing of high-potential Meme coins toward tokens with large FDV backed by venture capital and smaller market-cap tokens.
HTX 12th Anniversary – Top Gainers on HTX
Select Equals Value: Curating Quality Cryptos Across Every Sector
1. Rising Stars: Explosive Power in the MEME Sector
M (MemeCore): Launched on HTX in July 2025 at a record low of 0.4 USDT, it has since reached a peak of 2.14 USDT, witnessing a gain of 435%. As the first Layer 1 chain built specifically for the Meme 2.0 era, MemeCore seeks to evolve meme coins from pure speculation into engines of culture, value, and community coordination.
BIO (BIO Protocol): As a representative of DeSci (decentralized science), it was launched on HTX at the start of 2025, with the price rising from 0.05 USDT to 0.32 USDT, registering a 540% rise. BIO’s strong performance reflects both market enthusiasm for innovative narratives and DeSci’s potential in real-world adoption.
2. The Core of DeFi: Dual Verification of Value & Ecosystem
ENA (Ethena): Since its launch in April 2024, as a synthetic US dollar protocol combining DeFi and RWA concepts, ENA has used an innovative model featuring treasury equities + rate switches to attract market attention. Its price has increased from 0.25 to 0.85 USDT, a 240% gain. Its usage logic merits long-term attention.
RED (RedStone): Launched in March 2025, it has witnessed the highest increase of 284%. RedStone is one of the fastest-growing oracles, focusing on yield-generating collateral for the loan market. It has already secured over $10 billion in assets as collateral. Previously, HTX Ventures made a strategic investment in RedStone Oracles to support modular DeFi infrastructure.
PYTH (Pyth): Launched at the end of 2023 and notable for collaborating with the U.S. Commerce Department, it has recorded an increase of 127%, securing its position among essential DeFi infrastructure. Pyth connects high-fidelity market data from professional traders and exchanges to arbitrary smart contracts, helping solve the oracle problems in DeFi.
WLFI (World Liberty Financial): Making its global debut on HTX in September 2025, it has recorded an increase of 50% with strategic support from HTX. World Liberty Financial is a DeFi lending project supported by the Trump family, comprising its governance token WLFI and stablecoin USD1.

BAKE (BakerySwap): Launched in January 2024 on HTX, from a low of 0.03 USDT, it has climbed to 0.21 USDT, up 600%. BakerySwap is building an integrated AMM + NFT + AIGC multichain ecosystem platform.
3. Leading Public Blockchains: Sustaining Growth Through Market Cycles
BTC (Bitcoin): Since the beginning of the year, BTC has increased by approximately 25%. Launched in 2009 as the first cryptocurrency, Bitcoin serves as the anchor asset and store of value for the entire crypto market, earning itself the moniker “digital gold”. Its long-term position in the industry remains unshakable.
ETH (Ethereum): Without further description, Ethereum has risen from 3,412 USDT to 4,937 USDT, an increase of 44.7%. As the world’s largest smart contract platform, Ethereum serves as the core infrastructure for multiple sectors, including DeFi, NFTs, AI, and RWAs. Its long-term strategic importance is irreplaceable.
SOL (Solana): Its price has risen from 123 USDT to a high of 224 USDT, an increase of 82%. Positioned as a high-performance public chain, Solana is a powerful open-source blockchain platform.

WLD (Worldcoin): Launched in 2023, WLD has seen its price rise from 0.8 USDT to a peak of 2.2 USDT, an increase of 175%.

HTX Select: 12 Years of Consistent Commitment to the Industry and Users
