Gate Research: On December 4th, BTC consolidated at a high level around the $94k mark after a deep V-shaped rebound. ETH, driven by the dual catalysts of the Fusaka upgrade implementation and macro expectations repair, strongly led the rally.

Exchange token GT steadily trended up, following the warming market sentiment. In the mid-to-small capitalization sector, Tradoor (derivatives), BOB (Bitcoin scaling narrative), and SAPIEN (decentralized AI data network) were the top gainers, boosted by factors such as listing incentives, a short squeeze by Korean capital, and the recovery of the AI and robotics tracks, respectively. Regarding hotspots, the Ethereum Fusaka upgrade releases new space for Layer 2 and on-chain scaling.

Gate Research Daily Report: On December 3, the broader crypto market saw a mild recovery. BTC and ETH rebounded to the $91,000–$93,000 range and above $3,000, respectively, with short-term momentum strengthening in tandem. Among top movers, PIEVERSE (+78%) surged on strong demand following its on-chain AI Agent recruitment event; LIGHT (+44%) became a focal point within the Bitcoin ecosystem amid major RGB cross-layer DEX progress; and PARTI (+33%) rallied on Universal Accounts expanding to Monad alongside several ecosystem integrations. On the industry side, Bitcoin mining profitability has fallen to historic lows, putting miners under significant margin pressure. Tether Data launched QVAC Fabric LLM, a low-barrier framework enabling local AI model training on consumer hardware. Meanwhile, Flow advanced its shift toward financial infrastructure, rolling out native credit-market protocols and expanding its DeFi-oriented roadmap.

This report highlights that x402 is redefining internet semantics by shifting from the traditional “Request → Response” model to a new financial primitive of “Request → On-chain Atomic Settlement → Revenue Distribution.” This transformation enables native payment settlement and automated revenue splitting, positioning x402 as the execution layer for PayFi and machine-to-machine (M2M) payments. Over the past month, x402 processed more than 47 million transactions with an average value of under one dollar, signaling rapid demand growth yet still far from penetrating high-value commercial use cases. The ecosystem shows strong early concentration: Base chain consistently captures over 60% of market share, while major players such as Coinbase, Cloudflare, and Gate are accelerating infrastructure-level adoption. Short-term value continues to be driven by leading facilitators, whereas long-term potential hinges on whether x402 can establish a cross-chain revenue settlement network capable of
