👋 I'm Patrick, and I work with institutions on crypto ETFs, derivatives trading, and staking @Gemini
I want to share more market color that's timely and relevant based on what we're seeing on the trading desk. Open to feedback for what folks find interesting!
Owning Bitcoin Isn’t a Strategy Anymore
Early 2025 saw unprofitable companies turn into digital asset treasuries and stocks spike. As @patliou, Director of Institutional at @Gemini, explains, the market now demands structure and leverage.
Simply holding Bitcoin is not enough.
Another crypto industry prediction for 2026. @Gemini's @patliou shares his industry calls.
- Bitcoin's 4-year cycle is over
- 2026 US midterms will see bipartisan crypto support.
- More crypto-powered prediction markets.
- DATs will fall and merge to survive.
- At least one nation will allocate some of its gold to buy Bitcoin 👀
👀 @Gemini's @patliou outlines what will shape #crypto in 2026:
• The 4-year #Bitcoin cycle narrative breaks
• Bipartisan US crypto policy takes hold
• Prediction markets go mainstream
• DATs consolidate
• Nation states rotate from gold to #BTC

Always good to visit @RemyBlaireNews and @FintechTvGlobal on the floor of NYSE to chat industry trends/predictions for 2026, including how bitcoin breaks the 4 year cycle, sovereigns selling gold to buy bitcoin, and the latest and greatest - @Gemini Prediction Markets!
As markets head toward year-end, @Gemini Director of Institutional, Patrick Liou (@patliou) says Bitcoin could defy the four-year cycle as volatility declines, access expands, and a supportive macro and policy backdrop strengthens.
Why next year could be a turning point for Bitcoin’s long-term cycle narrative:
"Trading is in the Dutch DNA, from the first stock market to today’s top quant firms."
We talked with Patrick Liou(@patliou) from Gemini(@Gemini) on why he thinks the Dutch market is so interest.
