Original Source: Evan Lu, Waterdrop Capital
Recently, according to statistics, more than 20 BTC ecological projects have been launched on Binance's spot and Alpha sectors, with the data statistics table sourced from: Click here; most projects have been launched on both the Alpha sector and contracts, with only a few projects launched solely on Alpha. Among them, three projects have already been launched on Binance's spot sector. The BTC ecosystem comprehensively covers various directions such as cross-chain bridges, different technical paths of BTC L2, and BTC Fi. Nearly 2/3 of the projects maintain an FDV of over $100M, with only three projects having an FDV below $80M.
Excluding the previously popular MERL and BABY, new coin projects launched in September such as HEMI, BARD, LIGHT, PTB, and RIVER have performed exceptionally well in the market, with FDVs all maintaining above $250 million. This indicates that the next wave of enthusiasm in the BTC ecosystem will likely focus on sub-tracks related to BTC ecological infrastructure, cross-chain bridges, RGB protocols, and more.

TVL data is equally impressive; for example, HEMI, BARD, MERL, and SOLV have already exceeded $1 billion in locked value. BABY, as the foundational infrastructure of the BTC ecosystem, benchmarks against ETH ecosystem's Eigen Layer, providing security support for BTC L2 using PoS consensus mechanism, achieving cross-chain security sharing; its TVL exceeds $6 billion.
Additionally, MERL's performance is also outstanding; even after being launched for a year and a half, it still maintains a considerable scale of active users and community. As a leading project in BTC L2, MERL surged over 50% in late September, creating its own market; this proves the market's recognition of Merlin Chain.
The remaining projects, including L2 and BTC Fi, have over half of them with TVLs exceeding $500 million. The total TVL data exceeds $15 billion, indicating a promising future for the development of the BTC ecosystem.

Furthermore, as can be seen from the chart, Binance's Alpha sector has launched an average of 1-2 BTC ecological projects each month since April, which sufficiently proves that Binance is systematically betting on the BTC ecosystem, covering almost all parts from infrastructure to application layers. Projects in related fields such as L2, cross-chain bridges, and RGB protocols have shown good market performance. As various technical paths in the BTC ecosystem gradually land and are applied in the future, Binance Alpha is expected to become a new entry point for user traffic in the prosperity of the BTC ecosystem.

Based on the analysis of information data from the Binance market, the narrative of BTC ecological tokens can be categorized from the perspective of ecological composition, broadly divided into the infrastructure layer (L2) and upper financial protocols (BTCFi). The infrastructure projects launched in the Alpha sector are systematically building a liquidity entry for the on-chain capital market, which will be the most important and largest source of funds in the future—safely and trustlessly bringing BTC into the market.
As the underlying anchor asset of the entire crypto industry, BTC possesses liquidity and value-carrying capacity that no other crypto asset can match. However, due to the extremely simplified scripting language of the BTC network, which lacks Turing completeness, and the inherent limitations of PoW consensus in speed and scalability, a significant amount of its potential value remains unexploited. If calculated at a value of $100,000 per coin, merely introducing 10% of the total supply into on-chain finance could provide the market with up to $210 billion in potential liquidity, which would be a core driving force for on-chain finance in the crypto industry.

Combining the frequent launches of BTC concept tokens in Binance Alpha in September, along with the strong performance of the tokens; it can be said that if the market experiences another "altcoin season" in the future, the BTC ecosystem concept sector is likely to become a key track not to be missed.
