In case you don’t realize what’s coming:

And, Trump says cutting rates is a “requirement” for the next Fed Chair and is actively calling for 1% interest rates.

2026 is going to be a wild year.

I love it when I see legacy finance come together with Canton and try to build what XRP and Midnight are already doing at a scale 100x beyond their ambitions.

These guys never learn and don't understand what makes Web3 unique and meaningful.

It has been 5 years since I first began talking about both #uranium and #cannabis stocks as alternate investment sectors that I was interested in.

The quoted tweet is when I was talking about $CCJ at $4, it currently trades close to $90 (chart below to compare the quoted tweet back then and now).

In that time, the #uranium sector has exploded- as we expected it to- yielding a near 20x on our blue chip pick $CCJ since we shared that we were buying, and an easy 5-10x on a number of our other picks like $UUUU.

Cannabis stocks on the other hand, have yet to take off.

I am still holding both $CRON and $TLRY and am now actively adding to both of those positions as just this last week an executive order was signed to make cannabis a Schedule 3 substance. This is one step closer to full fledged legalization, and just like Uranium, the cannabis sector is ripe for expansion imo.

Stocks like $CRON, $TLRY and many more have been consolidating in HTF accumulation zones- some 90+% down from prior ATH- exactly the type of chart that I look for (both in crypto and any other sector).

Just like Uranium, the impatient will not get the 10-20x's, but if you are willing to wait, I do believe that this is a relatively low risk, high reward opportunity.

Most who remember when I used to talk about Uranium said "yea yea I'll pay attention when it starts moving" and completely missed the 10-20x that followed across the board. The few that pulled the trigger and patiently waited however, were rewarded. I believe we will see the same with the cannabis sector as well.

$CRON specifically, looks beautiful from a TA perspective (pictured below) and is sitting in our HTF accumulation zone and is sitting on 800M in cash with a market-cap that is just over 1B- meaning it is still extremely fairly valued imo and a great pick for exposure to the sector.

As always, DYOR and only invest what you can afford to lose. At the end of the day the decision to invest (or not) is yours- not mine, and you should be able to take responsibility for whatever the outcome may be.

Why are institutions moving to stablecoins?

It comes down to three things: speed, reach, and flexibility.

From real-time settlement to putting programmability in the hands of treasurers, see how stablecoins like RLUSD are evolving the way money moves.

[CrediBULL Crypto @CredibleCrypto]

There is just not much to update..we remain above 74k and as per that last update (and the one prior to it) nothing changes above 74k and assuming it holds we are simply looking for the next impulse up to signal the start of the next move to new ATH.

I have thought about making a new update but it would really just be a re-iteration of what I said in the last, hence why I haven't made one yet.

As soon as I think there is something worth update on, I will record a new vid.

[Doctor Profit 🇨🇭 @DrProfitCrypto]

I am buying back BTC around $86,000 to tactically trade a short-term relief move. As outlined in the Sunday Report, I see the probability for Bitcoin to revisit the 97k–107k region before the next major leg lower unfolds. Thats a 20% move from the current region, as trader a good risk reward trade with a tight stop loss. Still, I’m very bearish and I will play this move with absolute and the highest form of risk management. Means: I will make sure to place the stop loss at entry once in solid profit, also the short from 115-125k will be running and is not closed.

This setup is aimed at the few weeks only, before the strong bearish price action resumes with lower targets!

Bitcoin remains extremely unstable and bearish for the mid term, the strong downside continuation can happen at any moment, even before reaching the 97-107k zone. A deeper and faster sell-off is absolutely possible. So buying now should be taken with extreme high caution.

Short positions remain fully open.
Any upside is treated as distribution and liquidity for the next leg down, with the 70k region still firmly in focus as main target. In case we visit the 97-107k region I would take fully profit again on the spot position and add the profits into the short!
