Author: Cathy At the end of 2025, a rare consensus emerged among the world's top financial institutions. From a16z, Coinbase, Messari to Grayscale, Galaxy Digital, from BlackRock, Fidelity to J.P. Morgan, Standard Chartered Bank, more than 30 institutions in their respective 2026 outlook reports unanimously point to the same conclusion: the cryptocurrency industry is undergoing a historic transition from "adolescence's turbulence" to "adulthood's stability." If the 2021-2022 cycle was driven by retail speculation, high leverage, and narrative bubbles, then most institutions believe that 2026 will be a year of substantial growth built on regulatory clarity, macro hedging demand, and the practical application of technology. This stage has a professional name—

Morgan Stanley (Morgan Stanley) stated in the 2026 Market Outlook report that after experiencing policy and macroeconomic uncertainties for most of 2025, the global investment environment is gradually shifting toward a relatively favorable state. The report believes that, with rare alignment in monetary policy, fiscal policy, and regulatory direction, coupled with the continued expansion of AI investments, market focus is beginning to shift from macro risks back to the performance and narratives of various asset classes. Against this backdrop, Morgan Stanley believes that 2026 will be a year when risk assets regain dominance, with the U.S. market being the most prominent. Benefiting from the AI wave in 2026, investors can focus on related concept stocks Morgan Stanley pointed out that entering 2026, the market environment has significantly improved compared to the previous year. As global inflation cools and economic growth gradually approaches sustainable levels, companies and

The last trading day of 2025 concluded with a divergence in global markets: gold achieved its best performance since 1979 with nearly a 30% annual increase, silver surged by 147%, while Bitcoin may record its first annual decline in three years, hovering below the $90,000 mark. This rare divergence completely breaks the traditional narrative that “digital gold” and conventional safe-haven assets move in tandem. This article will deeply analyze the macro and structural roots behind the divergence of these three major assets, examine gold’s role as a “safe haven,” silver’s characteristic as a “leveraged gold,” and the unique challenges faced by Bitcoin in liquidity, regulation, and market structure. Based on this, it will forecast key trends in the cryptocurrency and precious metals markets for 2026.

Ethereum co-founder Vitalik Buterin recently issued a sharp call on social platform X regarding the development of artificial intelligence. He publicly urged that any emerging AI laboratories aiming to "benefit humanity" should clearly define their mission with a binding charter: focusing on developing tools that "enhance humans" and strictly avoiding building any systems with autonomous decision-making times exceeding 1 minute. Vitalik's core argument is that even if all warnings about AI safety are ultimately overcautious, the current landscape is flooded with companies pursuing "full autonomy" superintelligence (ASI), while the path of enhancing human cognition with "mecha exoskeletons" remains a rare blue ocean. This viewpoint quickly sparked in-depth discussions, including from well-known KOL Séb Krier, touching on the history of automation, human values, and the essence of the relationship between technology and power. For the cryptocurrency industry, Vitalik's stance is not an isolated event; it aligns with his long-standing advocacy for "decentralization," "open source," and "empowering individuals," potentially indicating important future directions for value investment and governance at the intersection of crypto and AI.

As the 2026 US midterm elections approach, the "Market Structure Act," once considered the "ultimate holy grail" of the crypto industry, is facing a severe legislative dilemma. Although the industry has achieved unexpected victories in regulation over the past year, multiple insiders in Washington have revealed that this bill, aimed at providing a permanent legal framework for US cryptocurrencies, is unlikely to pass before Congress adjourns due to its complexity and political sensitivity. An ironic twist is that a series of recent pro-industry initiatives by the SEC and CFTC have actually diminished the urgency of pushing legislation, leading to rare disagreements within the industry about "whether immediate legislation is necessary." This debate over the legislative path for 2026 is not only about short-term compliance costs but will also determine whether cryptocurrencies in the US are recognized as legally protected innovative assets or remain in a state of "temporary permission" under administrative rulings.

By the end of 2025, the global financial markets present a rare "ice and fire" landscape. Traditional precious metals represented by gold and silver continue to surge, with gold futures prices breaking through 4,550 per ounce, setting over 50 historical records within the year. Silver's annual increase even reaches an astonishing 150%. Meanwhile, the once highly anticipated cryptocurrency market has dimmed in comparison, with Bitcoin down about 6% year-to-date, and Ethereum down approximately 12%, facing a consecutive three-month decline. This extreme divergence has led to rampant discussions that "cryptocurrencies are dead, switch to gold." However, a closer look at the market structure reveals that profound changes are taking place beneath the surface: capital from TradFi (traditional finance), centered around ETF channels, is pouring into the crypto market on an unprecedented scale and with greater discipline. This is not simply capital fleeing, but more like a prelude to asset reallocation driven by macro narratives and microstructures alike.

Renowned analyst and co-founder of Fundstrat Global Advisors Tom Lee made a bold prediction in a recent CNBC interview: Ethereum's price is expected to reach the $7,000 to $9,000 range by early 2026, representing a potential upside of over 150% from current levels. He believes this assessment is not based on short-term momentum but stems from long-term structural demand driven by asset tokenization, improved settlement efficiency, and global institutional adoption. Meanwhile, the world's largest Ethereum holding company, BitMine, staked $1 billion worth of ETH within two days. This rare large-scale staking activity is interpreted by the market as a firm vote of confidence in the long-term value of the Ethereum network. Currently, Ethereum's price hovers around $2,940, with technical indicators showing it is at a critical decision point.

Elon Musk states he has no intention of seriously promoting cryptocurrencies; any mentions are just casual and not market-driven. However, he also acknowledges that Bitcoin has advantages within the broader financial system. He predicts that the US economy will achieve double-digit growth within 18 months and links this to AI applications across various industries. Musk also warns about the rapid rise in silver prices, pointing out that silver is crucial for electronic products, solar panels, and electric vehicle manufacturing. China's export restrictions implemented since January may reduce international supply availability.

According to Bloomberg reports, the decline in Bitcoin prices by the end of 2025 presents a rare and highly attractive opportunity for cryptocurrency investors—"Tax-loss Harvesting." Since current US laws classify cryptocurrencies as "property" rather than "securities," these assets are not yet subject to the "Wash-sale Rule," allowing investors to immediately repurchase after selling at a loss. This strategy can effectively offset annual capital gains and even reduce some ordinary income. Core Mechanism and Legal Basis of Tax-loss Harvesting "Tax-loss Harvesting" is a common tax-saving strategy in financial management. Investors realize "realized losses" by selling assets with paper losses, thereby offsetting taxes on gains from other investments (such as stocks or real estate). In the United States, if capital losses exceed capital gains, investors can offset up to of their taxable income annually.

PlanB pointed out that when Bitcoin last decoupled from the stock market and gold, BTC subsequently surged nearly 10 times within two years. (Background recap: Bitcoin frenzy, altcoins buried: a two-year bull market review, why are your assets shrinking?) (Additional context: The four-year cycle of Bitcoin is dead! Bitwise Chief Investment Officer: The crypto market has entered a ten-year endurance battle.) Currently, cryptocurrencies are showing a rare divergence from traditional financial markets. Bitcoin (BTC) has fallen over 30% from its October high; however, US stocks and gold continue to hit new all-time highs. According to TradeAlgo, this is the first time since 2014 that Bitcoin's annual return direction has been opposite to that of US stocks. History has triggered a 10x increase Against this backdrop, analyst PlanB, known for proposing the Bitcoin S2F model, stated that a review of early data reveals that

Silver surges 150% in one year, Elon Musk rarely warns about industrial supply chain risks, reflecting a global structural gap in 2025. (Background: Silver hits $76 again, setting a new all-time high!

This has pushed silver's market value beyond $4.4 trillion, surpassing tech giant Apple to become the third-largest asset globally, only behind gold (about $31 trillion) and NVIDIA (about $4.6 trillion). Elon Musk: Silver's surge is not a good thing Spot silver approaches

A rare two-week Stoch RSI buy signal historically appears near major altcoin trend reversals. High-liquidity assets often lead early recovery phases during cautious market environments. Selective trading remains favored over broad exposure during momentum resets.

Bitcoin is currently priced at approximately $89,000, down 30% from the all-time high in 2025, creating a tax-loss harvesting opportunity for investors. Since investors need to use Bitcoin losses to offset stock market gains, the end-of-year tax-related demand is expected to increase significantly, which may lead to market volatility. However, a rebound may occur after the new year.

As the year-end of 2025 approaches, the global financial markets have witnessed a "Christmas rally" dominated by precious metals: gold, silver, and platinum prices have recently hit new all-time highs, reaching $4,526 per ounce, $72.7, and $2,370 respectively. Analysts point out that this rare broad rally stems from shaken confidence in the fiat currency system, geopolitical tensions, and bets on "dollar devaluation trades." However, amidst this traditional safe-haven asset celebration, cryptocurrencies, especially Bitcoin, have been notably absent, underperforming precious metals and tech stocks in 2025. Market observers are focusing on a key question: in 2026, will the profits from profit-taking in the precious metals market flow en masse into Bitcoin, igniting the next crypto bull market? This potential capital shift will depend on whether macroeconomic narratives can shift from "purely safe-haven" to a rebalancing of "risk and digital store of value."

DWF Labs has made a rare move by entering the physical goods market with its first physical gold transaction.

On-chain analyst NoLimitGains has revealed a rare and critical market shift: long-term Bitcoin holders are distributing tokens instead of continuing to hoard. These Bitcoins, held for more than 155 days, have historically remained dormant during periods of significant market fluctuation, but have shown consistent net selling over the past three months. This selling coincides with Bitcoin's price dropping from a high of $126,000 to around $88,000, a decline of 30%.

Bitcoin's trading price today is close to $86,500, and a rare capitulation signal has appeared on the technical side. Its 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) fell below 30 in mid-November, which is the oversold capitulation threshold tracked by traders. A chart published by global macro investor Julien Bittel shows that after Bitcoin's RSI fell below 30 in the past 5 instances, it took an average of about 90 days to rise to twice the capitulation level.

On December 17, 2025, HashKey (3887.HK) successfully listed on the Hong Kong Stock Exchange. HashKey's listing marks a crossroads in history. On one hand, the United States is vigorously promoting the compliance of the crypto economy, Wall Street is gearing up, and the trillion-dollar RWA industry is ready to surge. On the other hand, at the end of November, the People's Bank of China, together with thirteen departments, reaffirmed their stance against virtual currency trading and speculation. At this contradictory moment, HashKey's listing has triggered a flurry of emotional interpretations within the industry. Whether positive or negative, everyone agrees that this event is not just a company's bell-ringing moment, but also a significant indicator of Asia's crypto asset industry moving towards "legitimacy." HashKey has thus become an extremely rare observational sample in the Asian crypto narrative. I just saw Dr. Xiao give HashKey full

The gold-to-Bitcoin exchange rate has reached a historically rare resistance level. This technical signal has previously triggered parabolic rallies in Bitcoin during the 2017 and 2021 bull cycles.

Author: Collectibles.com Compiled by: Tim, PANews From Loose Cards to Internet Hot Topic In a collector circle obsessed with Charizard, high-value modern rare cards, and top vintage cards, an unexpected hero emerged from a pile of loose cards and became a global sensation: Fossil Oshawott. This obscure common card from the 1999 Pokémon Fossil series should have gone unnoticed, but due to an anonymous collector's nearly obsessive collecting behavior, Fossil Oshawott sparked a viral internet meme, boosted the issuance of the Meme token $KABUTO on Solana, and most importantly, triggered a comprehensive and sustained price surge across major card trading platforms. This is an example of how personal collections have evolved into mainstream attention, demonstrating how community enthusiasm and internet culture can fundamentally rewrite the value logic of asset collection. Let’s take a closer look at this phenomenon, and explore

Recently, traditional safe-haven assets like gold and digital assets like Bitcoin have exhibited a rare and extreme divergence. Gold prices have climbed to $4,305 per ounce, just one step away from the all-time high, with an annual increase of up to 64%; meanwhile, Bitcoin hovers around $86,000, roughly 30% below its October peak. Renowned asset management firm Grayscale, in its latest "Digital Asset Outlook 2026," interprets the current market as the pain point of the "institutionalization era," and predicts that Bitcoin will hit a new all-time high in the first half of 2026. This judgment is based on structural changes such as global debt expansion, clearer regulatory frameworks, and continuous institutional capital inflows.

This article will delve into the details of this investment, the background of the ASTER project, and explore the implications of "smart money" movements for retail investors.

Article by: 0xjs@Golden Finance "A day in the crypto world is like a year in the human world." People often use this phrase to describe the rapid changes in the narrative of the crypto industry. But as the pillar of the crypto industry, Bitcoin has a constant activity that has been running steadily since its inception—Bitcoin mining. Bitcoin mining hash rate and difficulty continue to rise However, as the foundation of Bitcoin, the mining industry has faced many challenges. From the disappearance of "Cao Mao" in 2014 to the跑路 of CoinPrint Mining in 2022, many once-prominent mining farms have not withstood market shocks or tests of human nature. Mining farms that can endure multiple cycles and continue to operate are rare and precious. Undoubtedly, those mining companies that have persisted through multiple cycles and stood the test of time have earned people's trust. This is a reflection of the founders' character, stable management, and passion for the industry. MineBest, established in 2017, is one such example.
