🆕New and Noteworthy

We sift through hundreds of brand-new listings, filtering for liquidity, age and early traction. The names below cleared the first hurdles and earned a closer look:

 Polly Penguin ($POLLY) is a brand new Solana meme token listed on 2 Jan 2026 that quickly surfaced on trending screens as early liquidity formed and social activity ramped up in its first days. The project is still small by the numbers, sitting on about 367 watchlists on CoinMarketCap and a $1.84M market cap, with most trading typically routed through Solana DEX paths like Raydium and Jupiter.

 Lighter ($LIT ) is a decentralized trading protocol token listed on 30 Dec 2025, framed around verifiable execution with exchange-style UX. It stayed highly visible in its first week thanks to heavy early activity, showing up on roughly 7K watchlists and a $750.54M market cap. LIT is commonly routed through Gate and BingX, with listings such as Bitunix expanding access.

 Brevis ($BREV ) is a ZK infrastructure project focused on proving and data computation, listed on 6 Jan 2026 and quickly boosted by major exchange support. It shows 20.99K holders with a $98.09M market cap, and early access is most often cited via Binance, with additional routes including OKX and KuCoin depending on region.

🎇Featured Project Spotlight

 LiquidChain ($LIQUID) is pitched as a Layer-3 connector between Bitcoin, Ethereum, and Solana. The latter has seen positive recent price action around a proposed $2B SOL treasury with Marinade Finance, keeping the Solana ecosystem in focus. When BTC, ETH, and SOL are all active, “connect-the-dots” infrastructure tends to get more attention, and LIQUID is leaning into that unifying role.
