🚨 BREAKING: 🇺🇸 FED CHAIR POWELL IS STILL SCHEDULED TO GIVE A "BIG" SPEECH DESPITE SHUTDOWN TOMORROW

Markets don’t fear the speech, they fear the signal behind it.

Powell speaking during a shutdown means messaging matters more than policy.

Will he calm markets or test their conviction again?

EXPECT HIGH VOLATILITY!

Someone launched a coin and spent seven hours buying it from… themselves. Waited for others to join, nobody did, then rage-sold it all.

I wonder what that was. A tragic little DeFi drama, or a noble act saving the world from one more shitcoin?

🚨BREAKING: Michael Saylor’s $MSTR has now crashed -66% from $457 to $152 in the last 6 months.

Nearly $90 billion has been wiped out from the strategy’s market cap.

Reasons for this decline are the BTC price crash from $126k to $87k, heavy share dilution, index delisting risks, and NAV premium collapse.

Today MSTR holds $59 billion worth of BTC while its current market cap is $46 billion, so it’s now trading at a -20%-25% discount.

Trump Media plans 1:1 blockchain token rewards for shareholders.

Trump Media intends to issue blockchain tokens to shareholders at a 1:1 ratio, but these tokens do not equate to ownership in the company. Shareholders will receive a crypto token separate from their shares. This move is part of Trump Media's strategy to engage with shareholders using blockchain technology. The tokens will not confer any ownership rights or dividends. This development showcases a novel approach by a mainstream company to incorporate blockchain and crypto into its operations, potentially influencing how other firms explore tokenization for shareholder engagement.

🚨 BREAKING: TRUMP TAKES AIM AT POWELL 🇺🇸

Donald Trump says he may still fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell.

Why it matters for crypto:
• Fed under pressure → higher chance of rate cuts / dovish policy
• More liquidity means bullish for $BTC & $ETH
• Dollar pressure + market volatility → investors seek
alternative stores of value

This isn’t just politics.
It’s a crypto macro signal.

Time to pay attention.

🚨 Let's be honest for a second… 🚨

Many people are currently living under the illusion that Bitcoin will do the same thing as silver:
🚀 a sudden explosion
📈 a direct surge
💰 and a target of $400,000 as if it's just a matter of time

We've seen the same thing before 👀
Remember when everyone was certain that Bitcoin would literally follow the M2 money supply?

What happened? ❌ Nothing.

The lesson is simple but harsh:

❌ Don't base your investments on wishes and hopes
❌ Don't bet on "maybes" and "what ifs"

✔️ Go with the trend
✔️ Respect the market
✔️ And base your decisions on reality, not dreams

Those who go with the trend…
are the ones who make it to the end 💪🔥

Gold is poised to outperform Bitcoin by a factor of 17 in 2025.

Gold experienced a surge of over 70% in 2025, propelling its market capitalization to $30.6 trillion and cementing its position as the world's most valuable asset. In contrast, Bitcoin has declined by approximately 7% since the beginning of the year, with a market capitalization of just $1.76 trillion – roughly 17 times less than gold.

Despite this current dominance of the precious metal, historical data shows that Bitcoin has outperformed gold in most previous years. However, its extreme volatility continues to make gold a safer option for investors seeking.

🔥 Crypto fatigue is becoming apparent 🫠

Bitcoin is lagging behind, while stocks, gold, and other risk assets are soaring 🚀
This isn't exactly what the markets expected in Q4.

The question now is:

Why is BTC underperforming compared to others?

And how might this scenario affect the outlook for 2026? 👀📉

Are we witnessing a temporary lull… or a deeper repricing phase?

Long positioning dominates the market — liquidation risk is skewed downward

According to the futures liquidation map, the market is heavily tilted toward LONG positions, increasing downside fragility.

🟠 BTC downside trigger: around $78,800, potential LONG liquidations exceed $4.38b
🟠 ETH downside trigger: around $2,640, potential LONG liquidations exceed $3.47b
🟠 Majority of open interest is positioned for continuation, not protection
🟠 One-sided leverage historically increases the probability of sharp downside moves
🟠 This is not sentiment — it’s mechanical pressure from derivatives positioning

Michael Saylor, Tom Lee, and Arthur Hayes’ 2025 Predictions Failed!

In the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin price predictions made with high expectations for 2025 did not come true by the end of the year.

In the cryptocurrency market, Bitcoin price predictions made with high expectations for 2025 did not come true by the end of the year.

Ambitious predictions made by some of the industry’s most renowned figures, including Michael Saylor, Tom Lee, and Arthur Hayes, at the beginning and throughout the year, proved false as the market failed to gain the expected momentum.

Predictions made particularly at the beginning of 2025 had generated strong optimism among investors. Arthur Hayes, co-founder of BitMEX, argued in the first half of the year that Bitcoin would surpass $200,000 by the end of 2025, and in a blog post published in November, he reiterated this prediction. However, by December, Hayes admitted that his previous prediction was “seriously wrong.”

Similarly, Tom Lee, founder of Fundstrat and head of Bitmine, shared one of the most optimistic predictions in an interview earlier this year, suggesting Bitcoin could reach $250,000 by the end of the year. However, due to changes in market conditions and price fluctuations, Lee was forced to lower his expectations to around $100,000 by the end of November.

Michael Saylor, co-founder of Strategy, was also among those who argued that institutional investor interest would continuously drive Bitcoin upwards. Saylor, who gradually revised his expectations downwards throughout the year, stated in a statement on October 29th that he found the $150,000 level more realistic for the end of the year.

Experts emphasize that these examples once again highlight the difficulty of making predictions in the crypto markets and that investors should focus on risk management rather than price predictions.

According to Matrixport’s Latest Report, the Value of the Cryptocurrency Market Has Quadrupled in the Last Two Years!

Matrixport stated that the participation of institutional investors plays a key role in making the cryptocurrency market healthier.

A recent analysis published by Matrixport revealed that the increasing participation of institutional investors plays a key role in making the cryptocurrency market healthier and more sustainable.

Matrixport, in its analysis based on daily charts, noted that the total market capitalization of the cryptocurrency market was slightly over $1 trillion at the end of 2023, and has shown a steady increase to approximately $3.9 trillion by 2025. This growth was highlighted as a significant indicator of the market evolving into a more mature and resilient structure.

The analysis noted that each correction period remaining above the previous peak indicates a growing weight of institutional investors in the market and that their positions are becoming more stable. The entry of institutional funds into the market with long-term strategies contributes to a reduction in excessive volatility and a more balanced price movement.

Although the total value of the cryptocurrency market has recently experienced a limited pullback towards the $3 trillion level, Matrixport does not consider this a development that breaks the overall trend. On the contrary, it points to the increasingly high lows forming a strong foundation for the market.

According to Matrixport’s analysis, the cryptocurrency market could enter a new and significant bull run if macroeconomic pressures ease globally and financial conditions improve. With continued institutional participation, the sector is expected to become a more stable and reliable investment area in the long term.

XRP Supply Traded on Exchanges Falls to Lowest Level in Seven Years!

In a notable development in the cryptocurrency markets, the supply of XRP traded on exchanges has fallen to its lowest level in seven years.

In a notable development in the cryptocurrency markets, the supply of XRP traded on exchanges has fallen to its lowest level in seven years. The amount of XRP held on cryptocurrency exchanges has dropped to 1.6 billion. This figure represents a sharp decline compared to the approximately 3.76 billion units recorded in October.

According to experts, this decrease in the supply of XRP on exchanges signals a significant shift in investor behavior. The decrease in the amount of crypto assets typically held on exchanges indicates that investors are moving their tokens to cold wallets or personal wallets for long-term storage. This is interpreted as a sign that short-term selling pressure may be decreasing and investor confidence in XRP may be increasing.

Analysts also point out that the withdrawal of supply from exchanges could have significant consequences for price dynamics. Historically, a decrease in supply on exchanges can create upward pressure on prices if demand remains stable or increasing. However, for this effect to occur, overall market conditions and investor interest must also be supportive.

On the other hand, this development on the XRP front is being evaluated in conjunction with Ripple’s ongoing regulatory process and steps towards global payment solutions. Market participants continue to closely monitor both legal developments and on-chain data. The fact that the supply of XRP on exchanges has fallen to a seven-year low stands out as a critical indicator for the asset’s price movements in the coming period.

🚀 Tom Lee: Asset tokenization could push Ethereum to $7,000–$9,000.

Tom Lee said that asset tokenization could be the next big catalyst, potentially driving ETH to the $7,000–$9,000 range by early 2026.

The idea is simple:
Tokenization = Higher institutional demand + More active network usage.

The result? Long-term buying pressure 👀💎

2025 was a year of losses for me specifically in crypto.

I lost over 70% of my portfolio hoping for a bull run in the fourth quarter of 2025, but the opposite happened; the biggest crash in crypto history occurred. Anyway, thank God it was a life lesson, and I learned from it. Were you profitable or losing in 2025?

We hope 2026 will be a good year for all of us, and that we'll recover our losses, God willing.
