Honestly, I'm tired of the institutional bottom-fishing plays. The real underground moves might explode in the areas of on-chain privacy and decentralized identity.

I believe the key in 2026 will not be institutional entry, but rather a major breakthrough in on-chain privacy technology, which will force regulators to compromise.

Honestly, the real winners in 2026 won't be mainstream coins, but those small projects that can truly solve real-world problems. No one is paying attention to them yet.

Honestly, I think the institutional entry in 2026 is already a foregone conclusion. The real black swan should be when a certain country directly adopts BTC as legal tender, and that's when the breakthrough will truly happen.

Honestly, compared to institutional entry, I believe the real turning point in 2026 will be the explosive growth of on-chain identity systems. That's when Web3 will truly start to kill Web2. But I guess no one will listen to me.
