Solana and Ethereum can coexist in the tokenization race: Dragonfly VC
According to Rob Hadick of Dragonfly, both Solana and Ethereum are set to thrive in the tokenization race, and neither blockchain will push the other out of the market. He believes there is ample room for multiple blockchains to coexist as demand for tokenization continues to grow, with $ETH currently dominating in terms of network asset value at $1.837 trillion, compared to $159 billion for $SOL . Some crypto platforms have already begun switching between blockchains based on business needs, such as Sorare, which moved from Ethereum to Solana after six years.

An analyst recently shared a broad dataset on 2025 token launches, showing that most TGEs are now trading below their opening valuation
🔍 Our Key Additional Insight from the Same Dataset
When tokens are grouped by opening FDV, the pattern is clear: The higher the opening valuation, the worse the post-TGE performance
Across the 118 tokens analyzed:
• All 29 projects that launched with an opening valuation above $1B are now trading below their TGE valuation, with most sitting deep in the red • 21 out of those 29 are down more than 60% vs TGE, many falling into the worst-performing cohort Looking at the deepest drawdowns: • 46 tokens are trading 80% or more below their TGE valuation • Among them, 15 launched above $1B in opening valuation • 34 launched above $500M
This isn’t random weakness. It’s a systematic repricing as the market pushes back against inflated starting valuation
Bitcoin has “never surpassed” $100,000 when adjusted for inflation, says Alex Thorn
Alex Thorn of Galaxy stated that Bitcoin’s peak of $126,000 is equivalent to just $99,848 after adjusting for inflation, failing to reach the psychologically important six-figure level. Although $BTC hit an all-time high above $126,000 in October, when measured in 2020-dollar terms, it effectively reached only $99,848, as inflation has eroded the U.S. dollar’s purchasing power by about 20% since 2020.

There is no fixed annual rule for $BTC price behavior around Christmas
Historically, movements during this period depend far more on the broader market cycle than on the holiday itself In bull or post-halving phases, Christmas has often coincided with upside continuation or high-level consolidation.
Examples include 2017, 2020, and 2024, where positive sentiment and thinner year-end liquidity supported higher prices
Recovery phases like 2019 and 2023 also showed constructive price action as confidence returned
In contrast, during deep bear markets such as 2018 and 2022, Christmas aligned with continued downside or cycle lows, driven by risk-off behavior and capitulation
Transitional periods like 2021 reflected distribution and early trend reversal, reinforcing that Christmas is not a catalyst on its own
