USD1 and TRUMP: The shift from speculation to asset accumulation Looking at the contrast between USD1 and the memecoin TRUMP, we see a clear picture of the change in investor appetite in 2026. Capital is flowing out of purely speculative assets to seek safer havens in highly liquid stablecoins. That's how it is, folks shouldn't be too surprised to see memecoins drop sharply, as it is a general market rule when the excitement fades and the actual utility value begins to speak. #anh_ba_cong The growth of USD1 is largely due to support programs and integrations on major platforms, attracting users with yields and convenience. However, the ongoing debate among politicians about the source of funds indicates that the path of USD1 still faces many challenges ahead. For those who have 1-3 years of experience, this phase is a time to observe rather than act impulsively. Keep an eye on the banking license progress of World Liberty Financial. If approved, it will set a significant precedent, but if complications arise, the entire ecosystem will shake strongly. Maintaining a neutral position and diversifying the portfolio at this time is the safest option. $TRUMP $USD1 $WLFI
60% of the largest banks in the US are getting involved in Bitcoin: A historic turning point for global finance
The traditional financial world is undergoing a fundamental shift in thinking regarding digital assets. According to the latest report from River, more than half of the 25 largest banks in the US have officially deployed or announced plans to offer services related to Bitcoin. The shift from "Debanking" to "Priority #1" A few years ago, the Crypto industry was still facing "Operation Chokepoint 2.0" – an effort to restrict the access of blockchain companies to the banking system. However, that's how it is, after the brilliant success of spot Bitcoin ETF funds in 2024, the attitude of bank CEOs has changed 180 degrees.
40% of US stores accept Crypto: Convenient but needs careful consideration Although the information that 40% of stores in the US accept payments in Crypto sounds very exciting, you also need to have a clear view. The thing is, using a highly volatile asset like Bitcoin to buy a cup of coffee or book a hotel room is sometimes not the wisest financial decision. If you believe that the value of the coin you hold will double in the future, using it to trade goods at the present moment is no different from wasting a growth opportunity. #anhbacong Moreover, although nearly 90% of sellers report that customers frequently ask about this method, in reality, the implementation in small and medium enterprises still faces many barriers regarding infrastructure and legality. For investors with 1-3 years of experience, seeing Crypto being widely applied is good news for the overall ecosystem, but don’t rush to spend all your accumulated capital on daily expenses. Keep a smart capital management strategy, only use a small portion for real-life experiences, and focus on holding long-term positions. $BTC
If the price $BTC really falls below 75k, the giant Strategy with over 712,000 BTC will start to incur losses. For those who don't know, #strategy has a quantity of BTC only second to the legend Satoshi. However, the cost price of this company is much higher, mainly due to their continuous average positive pricing throughout 2025. The worst-case scenario is that the BTC price maintains a long period below 75k and Strategy is forced to liquidate a large amount of their Bitcoin, triggering a sharp price drop once again. A less bad scenario is that they have enough finances or find enough finances (like borrowing or issuing more shares) to wait for the market to recover.
60% of the largest banks in the US are ready for Bitcoin: A new era begins As you can see, the position of Bitcoin has completely changed. According to the latest report from River, up to 15 out of the top 25 banks in the US (accounting for 60%) have started to deploy services related to Bitcoin. That's the situation, from a previously hostile or "debanking" attitude, giants like JPMorgan, Wells Fargo, and Citigroup, with total assets of over $7.3 trillion, are now racing to provide custody and trading services. #Colecolen The fact that banks see Bitcoin as a "matter of survival" and the number one priority shows that the flow of money from the ultra-wealthy and financial institutions is preparing to flood into the market. As traditional financial rails have been laid out, the barriers for retail investors will gradually diminish, and liquidity will explode. We have been persistent all this time, and now is the time to see the results as Bitcoin officially becomes an indispensable part of the global banking system. Don't be surprised if in the near future, buying BTC is as easy as depositing savings in a bank! $BTC
Altcoin Market Capitalization: Standing at the threshold of recovery after a prolonged compression The Altcoin market is currently at a very sensitive yet full of potential moment as the market capitalization index (excluding Bitcoin and Ethereum) is approaching "life and death" support zones. Observing the long-term chart, we can clearly see that the cash flow is being maintained right at the extended growth trend line, indicating that the confidence of major investors has not wavered despite the recent significant adjustment pressure. #Colecolen Currently, the Altcoin market capitalization is converging at an important intersection: strong horizontal support combined with a Falling Wedge pattern. That's the situation; instead of continuing to free fall, the market is entering a state of tight compression, where the fluctuation range is gradually narrowing and selling pressure is clearly weakening even though prices have yet to break out. This is a typical accumulation phase, where smart money is quietly absorbing all the remaining inventory before a new cycle begins. However, patience is key at this moment. We need more time for this pattern to complete and confirm a decisive breakout from the diagonal resistance line. If the current support zone continues to hold, a strong widespread recovery for Altcoins within the next 1 to 2 months is a completely feasible scenario. Focus on observing the confirmation phases at the upper edge of the wedge; that is the trigger for the next growth wave. $BTC $ETH
NEW RICH PLAYING WEB3? FORGET IT, VANAR IS HERE! Many chains now have gas fees that are too "expensive," turning blockchain into a privilege for sharks. Retail players entering the game with fees higher than the rewards, what is the point? Vanar (VANRY) appears to hit back at that "luxury". With a fixed fee of $0.0005 and Neutron 500:1 data compression technology, Vanar turns Web3 into "accessible education". Deeply integrated AI helps process games and the metaverse smoothly without worrying about resource consumption. This is what will onboard 3 billion real users, not some inflated DeFi schemes worth trillions. Skin-in-the-game right away, folks! @Vanarchain $VANRY #Vanar
WHEN BLOCKCHAIN IS NO LONGER A "WALLET" FOR THE RICH
Have you ever noticed that the barrier to entering the crypto world has been getting higher lately? It's not about knowledge, but rather about the wallet. There are days when gas fees on the main network jump to over a hundred dollars for a simple swap order. I've witnessed many newcomers trying to play, depositing 100 dollars to experience the NFT game or buy some virtual land in the Metaverse, but before they could do anything, the fees had already "eaten" half of their wallet. At that moment, it feels really bitter because blockchain is supposed to be for freedom but ends up serving only the "wealthy" with a lot of capital, while retail folks with thin capital are left watching from the outside. This polarization makes me feel that blockchain is gradually going against its original philosophy.
STOP BEING A SLAVE TO GAS FEES! PLASMA & ESCAPE ROUTE FOR RETAIL PEOPLE The "rich people's" chains with gas fees as expensive as gold are killing the payment dApps. Developers who want to build something practical should take a look at Plasma (XPL). This Layer 1 is compatible with EVM, seamlessly transferring code from Eth, but the fees are... "peanuts". Unlike chains that only exist to shill tokens, Plasma prioritizes high-speed settlement for real payments. XPL is not just for holding; it is the staking fuel to operate the entire system. Cross-border payments without gas fees, fully compliant with VASP, can be played by both sharks and minnows. Stop fantasizing about million-dollar "super blockchains"; look at something that can actually be used daily like Plasma. @Plasma $XPL #plasma
XRP is at a crossroads: Quiet accumulation or waiting for a big push? XRP is creating quite an interesting state with a clear conflict between price action and underlying data. On one hand, the price has slightly decreased by 4%, causing concern among many. On the other hand, net inflows from ETF funds remain positive, and the number of large wallets is growing again after 4 months of continuous decline. That's the way it is; the market seems to be in a "spring compression" state, where institutional investors are quietly establishing long-term positions instead of chasing risky short-term waves. #anh_ba_cong At this stage, the most reasonable strategy for everyone is to observe rather than act too aggressively. XRP is known for its frustrating sideways periods before making significant jumps or deep corrections. The fact that ETF funds have attracted over 90 million USD shows that traditional finance's confidence is still there, but it's not strong enough to trigger an immediate explosive growth. Pay attention to the resistance level of 2 USD and the overall movement of the market. If the money flow returns to major coins, XRP will have a solid foundation to transform favorable on-chain indicators into actual price momentum. $XRP
Czech National Bank and the 1 million USD Bitcoin portfolio: A turning point for traditional finance?
In recent days, the global crypto community has focused its attention on the Czech Republic. The Governor of the Czech National Bank, Aleš Michl, made a historic statement: rather than opposing the future, we should proactively build and understand Bitcoin. This move is not just rhetoric, as the bank has officially established a testing portfolio worth 1 million USD.
This time you propose a short-term bet (KOL that everyone knows) However, Cole agrees very much, just analyzed it earlier $BTC

In the price chart, I have identified the 76.5K area as a strong support level. This is also the area where a large amount of long positions have been accumulated beforehand. The price recently had a drop to this level to perform two tasks: Check the strength of the strong support area. Clear out most of the long orders existing around the 76.5K area. When looking at the current liquidation heatmap, we can clearly see that below this price level, there is not much accumulated liquidity or significant long orders left. In contrast, above the current price level, especially in the 84.8K area, there is a large accumulation of liquidity and many short positions are concentrated here. Although this data is not enough to confirm 100% the next direction, when we see the price trying to hold strong above the support area, I believe there is a high possibility of a bounce (price reaction) from here. Normally, I would express myself more clearly and decisively, but due to the recent fluctuations that have often caused us to go against the trend, I think this phase requires a more cautious approach. The most important thing right now is that the price must hold firm and close the weekly candle above this support area. Let's continue to monitor, everyone! #Colecolen $BTC {future}(BTCUSDT)
Tennessee and the Bitcoin Bill: The Revolution of Public Financial Reserves
The state of Tennessee (USA) considering a bill to allow Bitcoin investment in public financial reserves is becoming the focus of attention from the global financial community. This is not just a conventional investment decision, but a strategic move to redefine the role of digital assets in the public governance system. Bitcoin: "Digital Gold" in the State Treasury According to the content of the bill, Tennessee aims to use Bitcoin as an effective tool against inflation. Similar to the historical role of gold, Bitcoin is expected to help diversify assets and preserve value for public funds. That's the situation, instead of relying entirely on traditional assets that are under pressure to depreciate, the inclusion of Bitcoin in the reserve portfolio shows the forward-thinking vision of these state lawmakers.
The US relaxes regulations: Good news, but is it enough to save BTC prices? Although Washington is sending positive signals about policy, we need to look at the harsh reality on the charts: Bitcoin has just dropped to its lowest point of 2026 at 82,700 USD. That's how it is, the news about the market structure bill being passed in the Senate Agriculture Committee is still highly polarized with a vote ratio of 12-11. #anhbacong No Democrat congressman has voted in favor, indicating that the path for this bill to become actual law is still very bumpy. Additionally, the fact that ETF funds have net withdrawn more than 800 million USD in one day is a red flag about the departure of large investors. Risk-averse sentiment is prevailing globally as both gold and silver are also being heavily sold off. In the context of difficult negotiations in the Senate due to ethical disputes, expecting policy to immediately push prices up is a bit premature. Jumping ship at this moment may be too hasty, but be cautious with positions using high leverage. $BTC
Tennessee and the Bitcoin Leap: When a U.S. State Chooses to Be the "Digital Gold" As you can see, Tennessee's proposal for a bill allowing the state to invest in Bitcoin for its public financial reserve is a strong testament to the value of BTC. Instead of merely viewing it as a speculative asset, they are placing Bitcoin on par with gold in the mission to combat inflation and diversify public assets. That's how it is; the bill allows for a maximum allocation of 10% of the fund and to gradually purchase 5% each year, a highly systematic and sustainable accumulation strategy. #Colecolen If this bill officially takes effect on 01/07/2026, it will set an unprecedented precedent, encouraging other states and even other countries to join this race. The ability for citizens to pay taxes in Bitcoin on a voluntary basis also shows the remarkable openness of the government. As public funds flow in, market confidence will be strongly reinforced. This is the moment for us to see that accompanying transparent foundations and core assets like Bitcoin is the right direction to protect asset value in the long term. $BTC
Tether Financial Report 2025: Record Profit of 10.1 Billion USD and Lessons on Reserves for Investors
The cryptocurrency market in 2025 witnessed a historic milestone from Tether, the entity behind the world's largest stablecoin. With a net profit of 10.1 billion USD, Tether not only confirmed its leading position but also demonstrated how a "giant" manages assets in a volatile environment. Financial strength and liquidity growth In the past year, the supply of USD₮ has surged by nearly 50 billion USD, bringing the total circulating amount to a staggering over 186 billion USD. This indicates that the demand for a stable value store and high liquidity is still increasing significantly. Tether's total assets have now reached 192.9 billion USD, most of which is allocated to back the 186.5 billion USD₮ in circulation.
Czech Central Bank Joins the Bitcoin Race: A Boom Signal? As you can see, the position of Bitcoin is changing day by day right before our eyes. The proposal by the Governor of the Czech Central Bank, Aleš Michl, to actively build and experiment with Bitcoin instead of resisting it is a real turning point. The thing is, they are not just talking; they have realized this with a testing portfolio worth 1 million USD. This is a starting figure but carries extremely significant symbolic meaning, showing that the highest financial institutions are beginning to seriously support blockchain technology. #Colecolen When a pioneering central bank researches Bitcoin, stablecoins, and tokenized deposits, it creates a strong ripple effect of trust. For us, this is evidence that Bitcoin is gradually shedding its label as a speculative asset to become part of the global financial infrastructure. This proactivity will pave the way for many other countries to follow suit, creating a new wave of more sustainable liquidity. You should stay confident, because when the old financial "civilizations" begin to transform, pioneers like us will have a significant advantage. $BTC

Ripple Treasury launches: A major step forward but is it easy to be accepted? Although the acquisition deal of GTTreasury worth 1 billion USD is a huge stepping stone, one must keep a cool head. The situation is such that convincing traditional corporate finance teams to completely change their workflow to "jump ship" to the blockchain system is not a task that can be accomplished overnight. Ripple Treasury, while providing superior speed thanks to RLUSD, still faces significant barriers related to legal issues and the habits of using outdated banking infrastructure. #anhbacong Moreover, connecting with overnight repo markets or crypto funds requires companies to have a certain understanding of digital assets. If the API process is not smooth enough or security risks arise, the initial enthusiasm can quickly be dampened. Investors with 1-3 years of experience should observe the actual number of enterprises implementing this system in the coming quarters. Do not rush to act solely based on billion-dollar figures or big names, as real-world application is always much more complex than theory on paper. $XRP
WHEN GOLD IS NO LONGER THE "STORM SHELTER": WHY NOW IS THE TIME WE NEED TO TALK STRAIGHT ABOUT CRYPTO?
There is a rather ironic truth that I have observed over many years in the market: every time the global situation becomes tense, from geopolitical conflicts to unpredictable economic fluctuations, the crowd's psyche immediately seeks out the old "safe havens". In such times, gold and silver are always the first names that come to people's minds. People line up to buy gold, hoarding silver as a financial survival instinct that has been ingrained since the time of our ancestors. But have you ever wondered whether those "shiny" assets are truly as stable as we have always believed, or are they just an outdated habit slowly falling behind in the face of the digital era's fluctuations?
