5、 Overall rating
Comprehensive rating; 7/10
FolksFinance has entered the pain point of DeFi liquidity fragmentation through a "cross chain one-stop capital market", relying on its technology stack (Chainlink CCIP+Wormhole NTT) and Algorand's leading position to create barriers. FDV is 75 million yuan, with an initial circulating market value of 20 million yuan, and the cost-effectiveness is still good. Anyway, the main consideration is short-term, and a 25% circulation is a bit high. Let's observe the opening selling pressure first.
All projects are not without imagination or acceptance, there are too many uncertain factors behind them.
