🔮 According to Ripple's president's forecast, 2026 will be a turning point for the crypto industry — crypto will finally integrate into the global financial system and cease to be perceived as an alternative to traditional finance.

1️⃣ Stablecoins will become the basic infrastructure for global settlements, and will become the standard for 24/7 payments, B2B settlements, and financial collateral. The main growth will come from corporate payments, the volume of which already reaches $76 billion per year, which will allow companies to free up hundreds of billions of dollars in working capital.

2️⃣ Institutional adoption will accelerate: by the end of 2026, companies' balance sheets will hold over $1 trillion in digital assets, and about 50% of Fortune 500 companies will form full-fledged strategies for working with them. Crypto ETFs, which currently occupy only 1–2% of the US ETF market, retain significant growth potential, and up to 5–10% of capital market settlements will move to an on-chain format.

3️⃣ The market will enter a phase of maturity through consolidation: M&A volume in the crypto industry has already reached $8.6 billion. Custody of digital assets will become a key element of institutional infrastructure; more than half of the world's largest banks will form new custody partnerships and begin using multi-custodial models for risk management.

4️⃣ The combination of blockchain and AI will launch mass automation of financial processes. Stablecoins and smart contracts will provide real-time liquidity and collateral management, AI will be responsible for dynamic RWA rebalancing, and ZK technologies will enhance privacy and reduce regulatory risks.

🗽 The US Secretary of the Treasury confirmed that the administration continues to work on forming a national Bitcoin reserve:

🔵 The US has completely stopped selling confiscated BTC.
🔵 The next stage is replenishing the reserve with seized and confiscated assets: after settling damages, such BTC will not be sold but will be credited to the state's digital reserve.
🔵 The administration is betting on the return of the crypto industry to the US, setting a course for clear regulation and support for innovation.
🔵 Against this backdrop, the policy of the Joe Biden administration, which nearly undermined the digital asset sector, is effectively being revised.
