Solana just went through a sharp retrace, giving back a solid portion of its recent upside. For late momentum traders it looks uncomfortable. For structure-focused players, it looks familiar.

📉 Price corrected fast. That’s normal for SOL. Violent moves are part of the asset’s character -they clean leverage before the next decision phase.

Zooming out, Solana remains one of the strongest large-cap performers this cycle. A pullback after expansion isn’t weakness, it’s market mechanics at work.

🧩 What’s driving the move:
• Broader risk-off flows pushed capital into defensive positioning
• Short-term liquidity exited, accelerating the downside
• Longer-horizon capital is now watching support zones, not headlines

🇺🇸 US Stock Market Update

Despite a shortened holiday trading session, the S&P 500 still managed to reach a new all-time high. Traditional markets continue to show strength, while $BTC remains in consolidation mode, waiting for its next macro catalyst.

💵 Michael Saylor: Why the U.S. Dollar Wins the Stablecoin Boom

Michael Saylor recently drew a clear line between stablecoins and $BTC, arguing they operate in fundamentally different economic lanes. In his view, stablecoins are not competing with $BTC at all.

They are competing with Visa, Mastercard, and the traditional banking system.

As stablecoins scale globally, Saylor believes the U.S. dollar becomes the biggest beneficiary. Dollar-backed stablecoins extend USD dominance into digital payments, cross-border settlements, and on-chain finance, effectively modernizing the dollar’s distribution without changing its core nature.

From this perspective, stablecoins act as digital rails for fiat, reinforcing - not weakening - dollar hegemony 🌍.

Bitcoin, however, sits in an entirely different category. Saylor frames BTC as “digital capital”, not digital cash. It competes with gold, real estate, equities, and long-term stores of value, rather than payment networks. Bitcoin’s role is preservation of purchasing power over time, not transactional efficiency 🟠.

A DAY IN THE LIFE OF BITCOIN

Every day, the $BTC  network settles $10–15 billion in value, processes around 460,000 transactions, and is secured by more than 73,000 nodes worldwide 🌍⚡

This is what a global, decentralized financial infrastructure looks like in practice.

Bitmine added 67,886 $ETH worth ~$201M to its balance sheet, reinforcing institutional interest in digital assets. Alongside Ethereum, $BTC remains the primary benchmark for corporate crypto accumulation strategies.

Remittix (RTX) Activates Live Settlement Execution Layer for Cross-Border Payments

Remittix (RTX) has activated its live settlement execution layer, marking a key step in the project’s transition from development concept to actively tested PaymentFi infrastructure. The new phase enables settlement flows to be processed under operational conditions, supporting Remittix’s goal of delivering faster and more adaptive cross-border transaction routing.

The milestone highlights the protocol’s focus on building a settlement environment capable of handling real-world payment activity while retaining flexibility through its multi-route transfer design.

From $BTC's Early Days to Today’s TGE Reality

$BTC was created to introduce a fair, transparent market - where price is driven by real demand, not promises. Fast forward to 2025, and the reality of token launches looks very different.

According to Memento Research, 2025 has become a “bloodbath” for new token launches. Out of 118 TGEs, 100 tokens (84.7%) are trading below their launch price.

Only 15% of projects remain in profit after launch. The market is no longer willing to buy everything at TGE.

Investors today care less about hype and more about liquidity, holder distribution, and where and how a token is listed. Without real market depth and proper post-listing strategy, even strong ideas struggle to survive.

#Bitcoin ETFs recorded $175M in net outflows, extending the streak to 5 consecutive days as institutional investors continue to reduce exposure.

BlackRock’s IBIT and Fidelity led the selling, with cumulative $BTC ETF inflows falling from ~$62.7B to ~$56.8B, signaling heightened risk-off sentiment amid thin holiday liquidity. #Macro Insights#USGDPUpdate

🎄 $BTC Christmas Prices Through the Years

Looking at BTC’s price each Christmas, the trend is clear: $BTC has grown despite yearly volatility.

BTC Historical Prices:
▪ 2013: $660
▪ 2014: $320
▪ 2015: $450
▪ 2016: $900
▪ 2017: $14,000
▪ 2018: $3,800
▪ 2019: $7,200
▪ 2020: $24,600
▪ 2021: $50,400

▪ 2023: $43,500
▪ 2024: $96,000
▪ 2025: $87,500

Since Christmas 2023, $BTC has more than doubled. Even with a local correction at the end of 2025, the long-term trend remains bullish, proving Bitcoin’s resilience.

🌱 Spring Could Bring a New Market Phase

Crypto optimists on X (Twitter) suggest the market is entering the classic “psychology of the $BTC cycle” phase.

March: rapid acceleration and excitement
April: euphoria, altseason expectations, and “moonshots”

Each cycle follows investor emotions from hope → faith → peak optimism. $BTC often leads the trend, setting the tone for altcoins.

Why Aren't You on the Forbes List Yet? 🤨

In 2025, there is no single template for greatness. We are in the era of the $BTC digital empires. If you think success is limited to rockets and memes, you are missing the real show.

The truth is, there are a thousand ways to "break the system":
• Bill Gates – Net worth: $103.8B
• Volodymyr Nosov – Net worth: $7B
• Reed Hastings – Net worth: $5.2B
• Jack Dorsey – Net worth: $4.9B

Every billionaire on the list stands behind a unique empire - for some, it’s $BTC, for others, it’s Netflix.

Bill Gates wouldn't be Gates if he tried to be Musk. And Volodymyr Nosov wouldn't have built his ecosystem by simply copying Netflix. They succeeded because they played their own game, not someone else’s.

Dogecoin price prediction for 2026

The DOGE chart patterns suggest that the meme coin’s price action is range-bound around $0.13000. Data from TradingView shows the coin is trading at $0.128, having moved slightly up and down in this zone since December 19th.

Crypto analyst Trader Tardigrade has expressed a bullish stance for DOGE. In his most recent Dogecoin price prediction, he suggests that the meme coin could have a parabolic rally in 2026 as it nears the end of a pre-surge phase.

Similar DOGE chart patterns appeared before the 2017 and 2021 dogecoin bullish runs. Trader Tardigrade targets a surge to $2.1 in 2026 if the bullish rally kicks in, although it looks like a long shot in the given market conditions.

Dogecoin Price Prediction for 2026: JPMorgan Weighs Offering Institutional Clients Crypto Trading Services, DeepSnitch AI’s 100% Bonus Draws...

JPMorgan Chase, a US traditional banking giant, is considering offering crypto trading services to its institutional clients. While not confirmed yet, the move would expand the firm’s digital asset services portfolio as crypto integrates with traditional finance.

Meanwhile, the DOGE meme coin has grabbed the attention of investors who are now eyeing clear signals from the Dogecoin price prediction. Alongside Dogecoin,  DeepSnitch AI (DSNT) is also making headlines.

Priced at $0.02961 in its third presale round, many traders are beyond confident that DeepSnitch AI could be a perfect opportunity to make bigger returns in 2026, compared to Dogecoin.

As long as price stays below this confluence, continuation toward the marked target zone remains the dominant scenario.

• Key Level: Diagonal support near current price and triangle breakdown area

🚨Ripple IPO Talk?🚨

There’s growing discussion in the crypto space that Ripple $XRP may be in late-stage talks for a potential IPO in 2026. This comes from recent research and analysis circulating among crypto analysts and the $XRP community, suggesting Ripple could be preparing for a major move into traditional financial markets.

Key points to know:

- Reports suggest Ripple is being mentioned alongside other crypto firms exploring public listings

- A 2026 IPO would signal Ripple’s long-term confidence and maturity as a company

- Going public could attract major institutional investors

- This could be a strong confidence boost for the $XRP ecosystem

- Ripple has not officially confirmed an IPO yet — still speculative

- Ripple leadership previously hinted that 2025 was unlikely, making 2026 more realistic

Strategy CEO Michael Saylor posted a cryptic chart referencing prior #Bitcoin acquisitions, widely interpreted as a signal of an impending $BTC purchase.

Similar “green dots” posts in the past have preceded official #BTC buying announcements by Strategy.

The signal comes as Bitcoin consolidates near the $90,000 resistance, a key liquidity and technical level. #Macro Insights#USCryptoStakingTaxReview

$ETH Approaching a Key 200 EMA Test

As with other alts, $ETH momentum is starting to slow, and price may be heading for a 200 EMA retest.

A strong bounce from that level would help maintain the structure, but if price loses it, a move back toward the $2,000–$2,100 zone to fill the monthly fair value gap becomes more likely.

Arthur Hayes: Why $BTC Could Target $200K Before a Deeper Reset

Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, believes $BTC may enter a powerful expansion phase over the coming months before cooling off later in the cycle.

According to Hayes, a move toward $200,000 by March is plausible if current macro conditions persist. The key driver, in his view, is the Federal Reserve’s newly announced Reserve Management Purchases (RMP) policy. While markets debate whether RMP is equivalent to quantitative easing, Hayes argues the effect is structurally similar: increased liquidity.

In his words, monetary expansion historically acts as a tailwind for Bitcoin. More liquidity, longer easing cycles, and balance-sheet flexibility tend to push investors toward scarce assets, and $BTC remains the primary beneficiary of that dynamic.
