🚨 2025: Wall Street leads crypto — 2026 will be determined by Demand
In 2025, crypto is dominated by institutional participation:
$BTC, $ETH, $SOL greatly benefit from ETF flows, with Bitcoin Spot ETF ~57B$ net inflows and AUM ~115B$.
However, from October, ETF inflows slowed, the market entered correction:
BTC decreased ~30%, ETH ~50% from the peak.
👉 This indicates an important truth:
Liquidity and headlines are not enough to sustain the trend.
🔍 2026 will revolve around real buy-side demand:
• Will institutional / corporate / sovereign adoption continue?
• Will ETF flows convert into real spot buying?
• Macro backdrop: Fed policy, AI cycle, equity market direction
The next phase will not be determined by news.
It will be determined by real demand — or the lack thereof.
No demand, no trend.
