$LIT vs $HYPE vs $ASTER

The coin was lauched some days ago but I think last week or so that I saw it listed. Marketed very well to the extent that I know it through the news.

This will depend on what will happen to bitcoin price. If bitcoin price increase, maybe all the three may increase or if bitcoin price fall, probably they will fall more also.

I still do not think next year is altseason and many altcoins may not be bullish.

$LIT is still very new so if the 3 tokens you mentioned I believe in the price of $HYPE, you will not always rely on narratives alone nowadays there needs to be a basis that a project has a real product to be able to compete. Therefore between $LIT, $HYPE or $ASTER which one has a strong enough foundation to last longer? that's why I believe more in $HYPE which has a clear record, support and also a real product to perform better in 2026.

None of them. Those tokens are perpetual focused tokens, and there's nothing special in holding them. I meant they have burn mechanism, but it won't be so attractive even for ordinary people to hold them. They will have more tokens to be unlocked, which mean another dump to come.

Those tokens won't have bullish trend until they can bring as many utilities as they can to their tokens, which is forcing people to hold as much as they can to take the benefits.

I agree, but to a degree. The reason why there was and there still is a lot of hype around HYPERLIQUID and ASTER is because people are waking up to the fact that DEXes are the way to go. CEXes are just getting worse by the day. The tokens may not have a lot of utility (right now) but it does not matter when it comes to the price, memecoins have no utility... Cardano have no utility, many coins have no utility, yet they are in the top 100.

I've seen people shared how much they've earned from it. I think those were airdrops and these are the people that have tested the platform of this project and congratulations to those who have it. As it's launched and became hot for now, those who can make money out of it, you got to be sure of what you're doing. These are the normal things we see in the market after being launched, the highlight and spotlight is with the project and you have to take advantage of it before it's gone and you miss taking the profits, just saying.

For the short term $Lit can be a good token because if you look at the market that markets this fabric is only a little so there is a possibility of being adopted by other exchanges for trading and its liquidity will increase as many markets take it for trading on bear exchanges such as Bitget, Binance, Bybit, Coinbase, OKX and others, these exchanges have not listed it yet it can be a good capital before they do their token opening after the pause is over.

It is now down almost 50% from the ATH that was created after its launch.

There are two different data on coingecko and coinmarketcap.

At the time of writing the price you did, now this token has dropped a little.

I would choose $HYPE over others there is a possibility that in 2026 it is predicted to rise, it is also determined by the direction of the market, especially bitcoin where it moves.

Until now $HYPE is still maintaining at a high price, because at the time of launch it was seen when it was still under $5 even though it had fallen far from ATH.

I saw this asset getting featured on Coinmarket cap. Honestly, because of his centralized nature it does not catches my attention since I don't have the capital to invest on it and pocket some money off whatever burning mechanism they have planned for this coin in the future.

It kind of reminds me when BNB was around twenty dollars on the market, then Binance started to burn the supply and the price pumped much... This is not Binance which we are talking about, so even if I had the money to invest, I would be careful on how much I would locate. All for the sake of money and potential gain, as there is no as much decentralization on this project.

Tbh I'm wary of new native platform tokens. They often bleed hard against ETH in a bear market, the volume spike is interesting, but I'd need to see the actual platform traction and tokenomics for 2026 I'd lean toward more established infra, but I'll check out their roadmap.

LIT is a perp dex and a perp dex usually decoupled from the movement of ETH. The same way HYPE was decoupled from ethereum's performance because the platform itself doesn't necessarily rely on one blockchain.

I bet that in 2026 lighter probably gonna deploy their own L1 the same way hyperliquid and aster deploy theirs.

If it's considering the market manipulation that often happened in Cex. It's sesnse reason for people are going for the dex and trigger the hype. Honestly, i've never ever seen that kind of candle happened on dex such as Hype, Aster, Paradex or something else even with the same pair usd1/btc.

However, we can't deny that people are being a diamond hand when they have a token that can give them something. I don't wanna mention meme as it's only pump and dump with 0 utilities. it would be much more credible to take a look at BNB as an example. I'm holding like 20 bnb, but often get passive from launchpad, launchpool, megadrop, yield or even alpha.

That kind of utilities need to be planned by dex token to make it even more attractive to buy and people keen to hold it.

Hyperliquid has its own ecosystem that it is building. It is becoming more than just a generic DEX token. BNB started similarly, where it had no utility outside of Binance, but slowly BNB Chain started becoming one of the most popular networks.

HIP-3 markets and portfolio margin are bullish for the growth of Hyperliquid and could lead to better price performance. I’m sure other DEXs will release new features to remain competitive, but right now, HYPE is the early mover, which makes it the better pick if we are speculating on potential long term returns.

Pick the leaders like Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, and if you want DEX tokens, it's UNI, CAKE that represent strongest DEX on ERC20 and BEP20. You can see how CAKE has lower price than UNI, and can think about the same with HYPE and ASTER or the token in this discussion LIT.

If you want something safest in long run, it's ETH, UNI, HYPE and if you want to move to BEP20, there are BNB, CAKE, ASTER. Don't bet on tokens like LIT especially in earliest days and weeks because as retail investors or traders, it's very hard to know which prices institutional investors, whales got enter the project, they can dump tokens at any price you think is low while they still get very good profit.

Since the new altcoin blockchain is connected with etherium blockchain it will make many altcoin investors to test the new altcoin because they have earned enough of income from  etherium which is the confidence that will make other investors to release their funds in this new altcoin, don't allow th speed increase of any new altcoin to make you feel they will perform better than the old altcoins because we have seen movement of some new altcoins in that way but some investors who don't understand how some new altcoins misbehave fall victim to them, I will not discourage new investors not to invest in this new altcoin since the blockchain is connected with Etherium, it will definitely bring good result that will make them to increase their capital and also introduce new investors to the decentralized coin.
