THE CFTC JUST STACKED ITS COMMITTEE WITH CRYPTO CEOs
The CFTC announced a 35-member Innovation Advisory Committee, and it reads like a who’s who of crypto and market structure. Coinbase, Ripple, Kraken, Gemini, Uniswap, Solana, Chainlink, Robinhood, Polymarket -- alongside CME, Nasdaq, ICE and major clearinghouses.
It’s regulators building rules with the people actually running the crypto networks and exchanges.
Remember, the CFTC oversees futures and derivatives -- the plumbing of global liquidity. If crypto leaders are now inside U.S. market structure discussions, that’s a shift from enforcement-first optics to integration.
Big step forward for #Bitcoin's long-term security!
BIP 360 just got merged into the official repo → introducing Pay-to-Merkle-Root (P2MR), a Taproot-style output that removes the vulnerable key-path spend to better protect against future quantum threats.
Proactive move by the devs. Bitcoin keeps evolving. #BTC $BTC
PRICE LOOKS UGLY. FUNDAMENTALS DON’T Tom Lee says crypto looks like it’s bottoming -- not because of vibes, but because the underlying story is getting stronger. Banks at Davos are leaning in. Regulatory bills moving through Congress are trending favorable. And BlackRock expanding into DeFi via Uniswap is a signal. The largest asset manager in the world doesn’t “experiment” casually. Meanwhile, price action has been weak & that’s the disconnect. If regulation improves and institutions continue building, the structure under this market is getting firmer, even if the tape doesn’t reflect it yet.
Tom Lee says a lot of people are leaning on the four-year cycle and expecting a long downturn. Timing-wise, you could make that argument. But the on-chain data is pushing back hard.
Ethereum is roughly at the same price it was in June, yet active addresses are up around 115%, daily transactions are up 77%, and real-world asset TVL has grown about 50%, with roughly $23B added in the past 30 days. In prior crypto winters, activity falls off a cliff. Wallets go quiet. Usage contracts.
Look at the chart. 2012 crash, Mt. Gox, 2017-18 bear market, COVID, FTX. Every single one printed “Extreme Fear.” Back then Bitcoin was $7, $400, $3K, $15K -- and each moment felt like the end.
Today we’re back in extreme fear territory again.
The difference? The network is stronger. Institutions are involved. ETFs exist. Sovereigns are mining. The infrastructure is deeper than ever.
Fear spikes at cycle lows because positioning gets washed out and narratives break down. But structurally, Bitcoin has survived every macro shock, exchange failure, and liquidity crunch thrown at it.
Extreme fear hasn’t been where Bitcoin dies. It’s been where long-term conviction gets paid. 🔥 #BTC #ETH $BTC 📸 Quinten | 048.eth $ETH
Ripple isn’t chasing price pumps. It’s building a system — in phases. Phase 1: Build the rails (XRPL) Secure, fast, scalable, cost-effective digital rails that can’t be hacked, manipulated, or exploited. This is the foundation: real financial infrastructure, not speculation. Phase 2: Trust & institutions Banks, financial institutions, and payment firms. This is where trust, compliance, regulation, and partnerships matter. If institutions don’t trust it, nothing works. This is the plumbing — and it’s being tested now. Phase 3: Adoption & utility Only after infrastructure + trust are proven does adoption happen: • XRP as a settlement asset • Digital currencies • Tokenized securities • Tokenized commodities (gold, silver, real assets) Reality check: None of the real adoption phase is live at scale yet — and that’s why XRP isn’t priced like a global settlement asset. Price doesn’t come first. Utility comes first. Adoption creates demand. Demand creates value. Infrastructure → Trust → Adoption → Utility → Value This is a long-term system build — not a pump cycle.
