[Aralez 🐕 @0xAralez]

🚨 My $BTC Plan for 2026-2028:

1. Final Bull Trap forms ~$70K
2. Cycle bottom in $40K-$45K range
3. 2-3 months of accumulation
4. Steady move: $60K → $126K → $160K

Next ATH should print in Q4 2028-Q1 2029 around $160K

THIS IS INSANE:

Once Bitcoin sweeps the final downside liquidity clusters, it's time to make every bear regret doubting this market.

[Ripple @Ripple]

It’s official: Ripple has received its EU CASP license. We are now fully MiCA-compliant and ready to meet growing European crypto demand https://t.co/I9GRgvfGzH

[Stani @StaniKulechov]

We launched a simple tool to migrate legacy stkGHO staking to sGHO staking to enjoy 4.25% rewards.

[RYIT @RyitNoise]

Living off Monero without the Visa prepaid card is nearly impossible. The Mastercard and AMEX are utter crap and can’t get added to a device more than a handful of times. Seems they’re removing the Visa most places.

[nexo @nexocooker]

This guy just retired from a memecoin

$100 turned into $500,000

[Zensei @zensei]

every major rwa metric on solana is moving in the same direction.

- distributed asset value: +34.78%
- stablecoin market cap: +3.72%
- rwa holders: +22.77%
- rwa transfer volume: +111.16%

if you want to see what real rwa adoption looks like, look at solana.

HOLY FUCKING SHIT

I JUST RECEIVED @PolymarketTrade BADGE!

Thank you so much Polymarket

[Our Crypto Talk @ourcryptotalk]

❗ RWA is the only category that grew in the past 12 months (amongst the top 25 projects).

$XLM : $7B
$LINK: $5.6B
$ONDO: $1.6B
$ALGO: $700M

have all contributed towards it.

This is the data on sector-token layer, where narratives actually live and die.

Where it stands today:

→ DeFi : $77.9B. Still the base layer, still ~half the stack. But down from ~$105B a year ago.
→ RWA : $46.5B. The only category that grew.
→ Liquid staking : $16.3B. Roughly halved.
→ AI/DePIN : $10.6B. Off its Aug peak by more than half.
→ NFT/Gaming : $4.48B. The 2021 trade, now a rounding error.
→ Bridges : $1.32B.

A year ago RWA was a mid-tier band, ~15% of the category economy. Today it's the clear #2 behind DeFi at ~30%. Its share roughly doubled - in a market that shrank.

The read: when leverage drains out, the reflexive narratives compress first. AI/DePIN, liquid staking, gaming all down 50%+. What took share was the one category underwritten by cashflows and off-chain assets instead of pure token reflexivity.

RWA is growing because it is the only narrative that is pulling non-crypto people in too. Tokenized stocks are bigger deal than we can think of and everyone wants a piece of it.

RWA is no longer "optional".
