Changpeng Zhao spoke at the World Economic Forum’s 2026 Annual Meeting in Davos this week, his first appearance on the official programme since Binance’s 2023 US settlement and his subsequent guilty plea, prison sentence, and presidential pardon.The listing placed him squarely in WEF’s “New Era for Finance” track, including a session titled “Where Are We on Stablecoins?”, a framing that treated programmable money not as speculative crypto theater but as emerging financial infrastructure.The invitation didn’t signal crypto’s ideological victory. It signaled something narrower and more consequential: the products Zhao helped scale have become so systemically relevant that elite conveners can…

Changpeng Zhao is in talks with a dozen governments to tokenise state assets, allowing infrastructure and commodities to be split into tradable blockchain tokens. This model functions as a digital privatisation tool, helping countries raise capital by selling fractional stakes in national industries to a global pool of investors. Zhao expects crypto to become the primary payment system for AI-driven commerce, as software agents will require digital assets to perform autonomous transactions. Binance co-founder Changpeng Zhao (CZ) has announced he’s in discussions with “probably a dozen governments” about tokenising state assets, a process that would put real-world assets onto blockchains…

JPMorgan says Ethereum’s post-Fusaka surge may be temporary, citing past upgrades that failed to deliver sustained growth. Ongoing migration to Layer 2 networks and rising competition from faster chains like Solana continue to limit main-chain demand. The decline of speculative activity and capital moving to application-specific blockchains has weakened Ethereum’s long-term usage and economics. JPMorgan analysts say Ethereum’s recent surge in activity following the Fusaka upgrade may prove temporary, warning that the same constraints that have limited sustained usage in recent years remain unresolved.  The Fusaka upgrade, which went live on 3 December, increased Ethereum’s data capacity by raising the…

PwC says institutional crypto adoption has become difficult to reverse as digital assets move beyond trading into payments, settlement and treasury operations. Stablecoins and tokenised cash are increasingly used behind the scenes within banking and corporate infrastructure, often invisible to end users. Regulatory clarity and cross-border coordination are reinforcing deeper institutional participation while raising compliance standards globally. Crypto’s integration into institutional finance has reached a stage that is no longer reversible, according to PwC, as digital assets move deeper into core financial operations. The firm says activity is shifting away from speculative trading and toward practical use in payments, settlement,…

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse predicts new crypto market highs in 2026, driven by favourable US regulatory shifts and the potential signing of the CLARITY Act. While Garlinghouse previously forecasted Bitcoin reaching $180,000, he expects XRP to regain momentum despite its recent 47% drop from its July record high. Market sentiment for XRP has hit “Extreme Fear” amid negative funding rates, a technical setup that historically precedes price rallies due to short-covering. Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse said he expects crypto to set new record highs in 2026, telling CNBC he is “very bullish” but not naming specific assets or targets. Garlinghouse…

Speaking on the Tapping Into Crypto podcast this week, Crypto Consulting Institute CEO, Joe Shew, said the fundamental mistake many crypto investors made in 2025 was investing based on hope, not data. Shew said many investors were bedazzled by sky-high price predictions from analysts and influencers, which led them to FOMO into bad investments. To turn things around in 2026, Shew advises investors to only buy altcoins that are outperforming Bitcoin and to look at weekly timeframes rather than daily. Joe Shew, CEO of the Crypto Consulting Institute, has shared some insights about crypto trading in 2025: being in altcoins…

BlackRock’s 2026 Thematic Outlook put Ethereum at the center of its tokenization thesis, asking whether the network could serve as a “toll road.”BlackRock stated that “of tokenized assets 65%+ are on Ethereum.”The framing pushes Ethereum into an infrastructure role rather than a directional call on ETH. A “toll road” model depends on where issuance, settlement and fee payment occur when real-world assets and tokenized cash move onchain.

Pierre Rochard’s call for the Federal Reserve to integrate Bitcoin into its stress tests came at an unusual moment: the Fed is soliciting public comment on its 2026 scenarios while simultaneously proposing new transparency requirements for how it builds and updates those models.The timing creates a natural question that has nothing to do with whether Rochard’s specific claims hold up: can the Fed ever treat Bitcoin as a stress-test variable without “adopting” it as policy?The answer isn’t about ideology. It’s about plumbing.The Fed won’t mainstream Bitcoin because a former strategy chief asks nicely. But if bank exposures to Bitcoin through…
