Experts Speak: “The Cryptocurrency Market Is Currently Pricing Something Else”

A recent analysis video published by “The DeFi Report” reveals that the cryptocurrency markets are shifting and that the markets are now pricing in something “beyond traditional cycles.”

According to the analysis, market participants are now focusing not only on speculative price movements, but also on deepening institutional integration and the permanence of DeFi (Decentralized Finance) infrastructure.

The central argument is that crypto markets are no longer driven solely by Bitcoin halving cycles or simple liquidity increases. Experts note that the market is pricing in expectations of “institutional adoption” and “regulatory clarity” more strongly than ever before.

In particular, spot ETF approvals in the US and the inclusion of large asset management companies (BlackRock, Fidelity, etc.) in the ecosystem have fundamentally changed the market’s risk perception. The question of “will this technology disappear?” has now been replaced by “how will this technology transform traditional finance?”.

The section discussing developments in the DeFi world notes that decentralized protocols have moved beyond an “experimental” phase and are now offering a real financial infrastructure service. Ethereum and Layer-2 (L2) solutions are highlighted as becoming the fundamental layers connecting global liquidity. It emphasizes that the high returns previously achieved solely through token inflation have been replaced by sustainable returns derived from transaction fees and real economic activity.

It is stated that macroeconomic uncertainties (inflation, debt crisis, and monetary policies) are positioning crypto assets as an “alternative system.” According to analysts, cryptocurrencies are now seen not only as a “risk asset” but also as an “insurance policy” against the bottlenecks of the financial system.

While global liquidity cycles remain critical, the internal dynamics of the crypto ecosystem (growth of on-chain data, number of active wallets) are beginning to diverge from macroeconomic data.

According to analysts, the era of every project rising in value is over. The market is now pricing in protocols that “create real value.” Institutional capital flows will no longer be limited to Bitcoin; they will shift towards Ethereum and core DeFi infrastructures. Markets are pricing in crypto becoming a core infrastructure similar to an “internet protocol,” which forms the building blocks of a long-term bull trend.

Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council

The post Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Michael Saylor and a group of crypto executives met in Washington, D.C. yesterday to push for the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill (the BITCOIN Act), which would see the U.S. acquire up to 1M $BTC over five years. With Bitcoin being positioned yet again as a cornerstone of national monetary policy, many investors are turning their eyes to projects that lean into this narrative – altcoins, meme coins, and presales that could ride on the same wave. Read on for three of the best crypto projects that seem especially well‐suited to benefit from this macro shift:  Bitcoin Hyper, Best Wallet Token, and Remittix. These projects stand out for having a strong use case and high adoption potential, especially given the push for a U.S. Bitcoin reserve.   Why the Bitcoin Reserve Bill Matters for Crypto Markets The strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill could mark a turning point for the U.S. approach to digital assets. The proposal would see America build a long-term Bitcoin reserve by acquiring up to one million $BTC over five years. To make this happen, lawmakers are exploring creative funding methods such as revaluing old gold certificates. The plan also leans on confiscated Bitcoin already held by the government, worth an estimated $15–20B. This isn’t just a headline for policy wonks. It signals that Bitcoin is moving from the margins into the core of financial strategy. Industry figures like Michael Saylor, Senator Cynthia Lummis, and Marathon Digital’s Fred Thiel are all backing the bill. They see Bitcoin not just as an investment, but as a hedge against systemic risks. For the wider crypto market, this opens the door for projects tied to Bitcoin and the infrastructure that supports it. 1.
