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.

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,…

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 says Ethereum is the gatekeeper to tokenization even though it’s market share is threatened
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.

Bitcoin is about to hit the Federal Reserve’s 2026 stress tests, creating a massive capital risk for regulated banks
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…

A single wallet on Hyperliquid holds a long position worth roughly $649.6 million in Ethereum (ETH), with 223,340 ETH entered at around $3,161.85, with a liquidation estimate near $2,268.37.As of press time, ETH traded around $2,908.30, and the liquidation threshold sits about 22% below that.
