Reviewing strong-performing tokens and exploring how to uncover excess Alpha returns.

Written by: Revc, Golden Finance

With the issuance of USDT, MicroStrategy increasing its BTC holdings, and a surge in crypto-related US stocks, BTC surged towards the $90,000 mark in the early hours of November 12. Although liquidity has not yet significantly overflowed into altcoins, some tokens with solid fundamentals and narratives have recorded over 50% gains, with DOGE's increase nearing 120%. The following reviews these strong-performing tokens and explores how to uncover excess Alpha returns.

Overview of Strong Tokens

Dogecoin——Doge (+116%, 7d)

Dogecoin (DOGE) was launched in 2013 by Belgian software engineer Billy Markus and Australian Jackson Palmer as a joke cryptocurrency, featuring the Japanese Shiba Inu as its mascot. Initially based on Bitcoin and Litecoin technology, Dogecoin uses the Scrypt algorithm, making it suitable for small transactions. Elon Musk is a well-known supporter of Dogecoin, and after his support helped Trump successfully campaign for the U.S. presidency, DOGE became a core asset of Musk's concept.

Keywords: MEME coin pioneer, Musk, community-driven, Dogecoin king.

Act I: The AI Prophecy——ACT (+2697.36%, 7d)

The Act project aims to create a decentralized community to promote AI research, education, and collaboration. It brings together developers, enthusiasts, and community members dedicated to spreading AI knowledge. Act is hosted on the Discord server Cyborgism, where users can interact in real-time with various AI chatbots, covering applications from simple conversations to complex role-playing.

One of the project founders, AmplifiedAmp, initially held 6% of the tokens but was accused of personal profit due to frequent token sales. Ultimately, Amp exited the project, causing controversy. After Amp's departure, the project gained community autonomy and funding support, leading to a more united community committed to Act's development. Subsequently, Binance announced the listing of ACT, causing a surge in market interest and token price.

Keywords: AI Prophecy, AI community token, artificial intelligence education.

Peanut——PNUT (+1166%, 7d)

PNUT is a meme coin issued on Solana, originating from a widely publicized animal protection incident: a popular squirrel named Peanut was euthanized, sparking public outrage. The birth of PNUT provided a way for people to express their concerns for animal rights and dissatisfaction with government actions, rapidly spreading through social media during the election period.

Keywords: Meme coin, animal protection, social movement, influencer effect.

GRASS (+97%, 7d)

Grass is building the first open internet-level web scraping network. Currently, the network is supported by over 3 million users, who run nodes to scrape data for AI models. Only two companies globally can scrape the entire internet, and this capability is a core pillar of their multi-trillion dollar businesses. Grass aims to replace them and create the first user-owned, comprehensive knowledge graph covering the entire web.

Keywords: open network, web scraping, nodes, AI models, knowledge graph.

Ethena——ENA (+85%, 7d)

Ethena is a synthetic dollar protocol built on Ethereum, providing a crypto-native currency solution that does not rely on traditional banking infrastructure, while offering globally accessible dollar-denominated savings tools—"internet bonds."

Keywords: synthetic dollar, internet bonds, anti-censorship.

Cardano——ADA (+77%, 7d)

Cardano (ADA) is a third-generation blockchain platform designed to provide more efficient, secure, and scalable solutions than previous generations. Cardano's design is based on scientific research and academic peer review, emphasizing scalability, security, and interoperability. The goal is to create a sustainable, decentralized financial and application ecosystem.

Keywords: Proof of Stake (PoS), eUTXO model, smart contract programming language.

NEIRO (+81%, 7d)

Neiro is a cryptocurrency project themed around the Shiba Inu Neiro, whose owner is the famous creator of the Doge meme. The project team donated some tokens to Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin to verify the security of the token contract and enhance the project's visibility.

Keywords: Vitalik Buterin, Doge meme, Kabosus, community split.

Goatseus Maximus——GOAT (+70%, 7d)

GOAT is a meme coin that sparked the "AI Meme Coin" concept craze. The birth of GOAT is closely related to the AI entity "Truth Terminal." Although GOAT was not created by AI, the tweets and marketing from Truth Terminal significantly boosted GOAT's visibility. GOAT was first proposed by "Truth Terminal" in a conversation, and soon after, someone created the GOAT coin on the platform, leading to speculation. With continuous promotion on social platforms and support from well-known investors in the industry, GOAT's market cap skyrocketed to $800 million in a short time. Despite being positioned as an "AI Meme Coin," GOAT still requires human control over content release and fund operations, failing to achieve complete autonomy.

Keywords: AI entity, a16z, AI religion.

SUI (+68%, 7d)

Sui is an innovative Layer 1 that employs a unique object-centric data model and secure Move programming language to address inefficiencies in existing blockchain architectures. On this technical foundation, Sui also enhances user experience through innovations like zkLogin, sponsored transactions, and programmable transaction blocks, lowering the entry barrier for Web3 applications, making them more convenient and user-friendly.

Keywords: Move programming language, sponsored transactions, parallel execution, horizontal scaling.

WorldCoin——WLD (+58%, 7d)

At the core of Worldcoin is the "World ID" global privacy-preserving identity network, which ensures users can verify their "human identity" online without disclosing privacy through zero-knowledge proofs. Worldcoin adopts the ERC-20 token standard and operates on the Optimism mainnet. World ID aims to achieve decentralized governance, enhance social equity (such as reducing fake accounts on social media), and explore new social structures like AI-supported global basic income.

Keywords: human identity verification, zero-knowledge proof, universal basic income (UBI).

Conclusion

Current market optimism is primarily focused on the potential policy benefits the Trump administration may bring to the crypto industry, with Dogecoin being a representative of such assets, combining Musk's support and MEME culture elements. The significant progress of Ethena and SUI at both the application and infrastructure levels has also attracted investor attention, further driving market enthusiasm. The aforementioned projects, through innovation, strong community support, and responsiveness to mainstream trends in the crypto industry, have seen their tokens outperform Bitcoin.

Additionally, the explosive growth of tokens like ACT and PNUT indicates that centralized exchanges' attention to the MEME community may become a long-term trend, and investors should adapt to this change early.
