BTCFi Tokens BTW and ZEST Lead HTX's June 1-7 Leaderboard as Post-Correction Capital Rotates Into Higher-Beta Names

6/12/2026

Crypto markets rebounded during the week of June 1-7 following a broad late-May selloff, with capital rotating into BTCFi, DeFi, AI, and privacy assets, according to HTX trading data.

Bitway (BTW) and Audiera (BEAT) topped the platform's sub-new asset rankings at +319% and +210% respectively, while Zest Protocol (ZEST) added +87% — all three early-stage HTX listings that subsequently gained exposure via Binance Perpetual Futures contracts.

BTCFi Names Post the Week's Largest Moves BTW's +319% was the week's standout.

HTX describes Bitway as a specialized Layer-1 blockchain engineered for $BTC-based applications, part of the exchange's characterization of BTCFi as "the primary capital destination" following DeFi and Layer-2 in this cycle.
