However, prominent crypto moguls are slightly optimistic about 2026. We gathered the most significant predictions in one post, and yes, we want to come back here next December and find out if this time they were true. 🧙♂️
Strategy, that modern-day Gatsby of the blockchain, resumed its frenzied bitcoin acquisitions after fattening its US dollar reserves to $2.2 billion the prior week. A feat of financial jujitsu, one might say, though the jury is still out on whether this is genius or madness. 🤷♂️
In the frostbitten lands of Russia, where the cold bites harder than a bear’s teeth, Sberbank dared to step into the world of crypto. A pilot transaction, they say, but who’s counting? 🧊💸
ALT5 Sigma, a beacon of hope in the crypto world (or so we thought), has found itself under the relentless gaze of scrutiny once more, this time due to alarming revelations about its financial reporting and the dubious qualifications of its newly recruited auditor. The missed quarterly filing is like a melodramatic plot twist you never saw coming-now the company teeters on the brink of delisting, as if balancing on a tightrope stretched over a pit of alligators.
The broader trend? Still weak as a wet noodle. Folks are now squintin’ at lower timeframes, hopin’ for a spark. A short-term breakout setup’s been whisperin’ sweet nothings to traders, but let’s be clear-breakouts alone are like a wolf in sheep’s clothing. Buyers need more than hot air to prove strength.
The official Discord-yes, they have one-confirmed their devotion to the monthly unlock ritual. Like clockwork, folks. The tokens-roughly 0.3 percent of total supply-are a tiny fraction of the 420 million total, but enough to keep the speculative engines running. Oh, and the buybacks and burns? Just some light juggling to keep everyone guessing whether the supply is actually shrinking or merely passing gas. Daily buybacks of 21,700 tokens and emissions of 26,700 tokens create a modest net inflation, or so they say-no promises, only promises of not promising anything too interesting. 😂
It all began with Cardano’s Charles Hoskinson pitching Midnight as the “next-gen privacy stack” of dreams, casually tossing XRP Ledger into the mix as a network that’s already out there doing the heavy lifting-none of that theoretical fluff. 🚀
After years of sharp ups and downs, many crypto investors are still waiting for the kind of bull run that feels truly explosive. According to macro researcher Jesse Eckel, that moment may not arrive in 2025 – but in 2026. 🚀💸
This ALT5 Sigma, sustained by the crypto ambitions of the Trump family’s World Liberty Financial-a name redolent of grand promises and questionable foundations-has found itself, shall we say, delayed in producing its quarterly accounting. One might imagine a farmer delaying the harvest, but this is hardly the same, is it? A business, even one dabbling in the fantastical, must render unto Caesar (or, in this case, the Securities and Exchange Commission) what is Caesar’s.
Lo! The pattern repeats itself, as cyclical as the moon’s phases. In 2020, when the markets trembled like a jilted lover, gold and silver waltzed into the ballroom, leaving Bitcoin to polish its crown in the antechamber. Only after the metals’ grand finale did crypto’s king ascend the throne-though one suspects he forgot to RSVP.
