Bitcoin’s recovery has brought risk appetite back into crypto, and if BTC eventually extends the rally toward $150,000, attention could turn toward altcoins with stronger underlying businesses and narratives.

ENA and ETHFI are tied to DeFi protocols already generating substantial fees, while TAO provides exposure to one of crypto’s biggest long-term narratives: decentralized artificial intelligence.
