Thursday Crypto Recap, Institutions Are Still Building
Bitcoin moved above $97K and price action stayed calm, but the important signals were underneath the surface. Spot Bitcoin ETFs posted $753M in net inflows, the strongest single-day inflow since October, showing institutions are still accumulating.
At the same time, stablecoin and regulation progress continued: Visa and BVNK launched stablecoin payouts, Pakistan signed an agreement to integrate USD1, Germany’s DZ Bank received approval to launch a crypto platform, and NYSE listed a Chainlink ETF.
This is what “quiet strength” looks like: capital, infrastructure, and regulation moving together.

$XRP está intentando un cambio de estructura tras romper la compresión triangular.
Visión técnica: un triángulo contractivo se está resolviendo hacia arriba dentro de una tendencia a la baja más amplia. La tendencia sigue siendo alcista solo si XRP puede mantenerse por encima del área de ruptura y construir aceptación, convirtiendo el punto alto del triángulo en soporte, respetando al mismo tiempo la línea de tendencia ascendente.
Si XRP retrocede nuevamente dentro del triángulo, la ruptura probablemente se retrasará o se invalidará.
$SOL is starting to push higher after breaking out of a tight compression zone.
Technical view: an ascending triangle is forming after a long corrective phase. The bias stays bullish as long as price holds above the reclaimed trendline and keeps respecting the rising support.
If SOL slips back below the breakout area and loses trendline support, the upside attempt can weaken and turn into more sideways action.
🏛 Dubái acaba de trazar una línea clara sobre las stablecoins — y eso importa
La stablecoin RLUSD de Ripple ha sido reconocida oficialmente para su uso dentro del Centro Financiero Internacional de Dubái (DIFC) tras la aprobación de la Autoridad de Servicios Financieros de Dubái (DFSA).
Actualmente, solo tres stablecoins están reconocidas bajo el nuevo marco: USDC EURC RLUSD
Dubái también está endureciendo las reglas: las monedas privadas están prohibidas, las stablecoins algorítmicas están excluidas y no se permiten reservas respaldadas por criptoactivos o créditos privados. Solo las stablecoins totalmente respaldadas y transparentes califican.
El mensaje más amplio: Dubái no es anticitocripto. Es antiincertidumbre. Los proyectos que cumplen con normas de calidad institucional son los que obtienen acceso a largo plazo.

The current $BTC liquidation heatmap shows a clear imbalance. While there are some long liquidations clustered near 88K, the majority of liquidation liquidity is positioned on the short side above the current price.
This matters because markets are often attracted to areas with higher liquidity. If price begins to move upward, short positions may be forced to close, which can accelerate upside momentum.
At the moment, this setup suggests upside pressure remains active, as short sellers carry more risk than longs. Monitoring how price reacts around these zones is key for understanding the next move.
$BTC is showing very similar price behavior to April 2025: • Breakout structure looks the same • Whales are closing longs • A double-bottom pattern is forming
If history rhymes, this setup could lead to a Q2-2025-style rally.
Polymarket’s refusal to pay out bets on a U.S. invasion of Venezuela has triggered significant backlash. The platform argued the military action in Venezuela did not satisfy the specific contract conditions, leading to millions of dollars in unresolved wagers and criticism from users who believe the event should have qualified.
This episode has renewed debate around prediction market definitions, fairness, and transparency.
📊 Golden Cross vs Death Cross: What Bitcoin History Tells Us
Golden and Death Crosses are simple moving average signals (50 vs 200), often misunderstood as future predictions. In reality, they reflect sentiment after moves already started.
They worked in 2020 and 2024 because structure, volume, and macro aligned. They failed in 2021 when selling was already exhausted.
Best used with market structure, volume, and macro context.
“Si #Bitcoin supera los 100.000 dólares, puedes estar seguro de que alcanzará un millón de dólares.” – John McAfee
Esta cita refleja la creencia a largo plazo en el potencial alcista de Bitcoin, no una predicción de precio a corto plazo. A medida que crece la adopción y el interés institucional, narrativas audaces como esta continúan resurgiendo.
La lista de ricos de XRP vuelve a la atención del público mientras $XRP se mantiene por encima de $2
Con $XRP cotizando por encima de $2, los traders están mirando más allá del precio y centrándose en la distribución de suministro. Los datos indican que los 10 principales monederos controlan aproximadamente el 18% del XRP en circulación, mientras que los monederos clasificados del 10 al 50 poseen alrededor del 25%.
El fideicomiso de Ripple continúa liberando XRP según un calendario predecible, reduciendo el riesgo de una sacudida repentina en el suministro. Los monederos de intercambio siguen siendo grandes, pero principalmente reflejan liquidez en lugar de ventas direccionales.
Este nuevo enfoque en la lista de ricos llega tras la fortaleza del precio, lo que a menudo sugiere la posición del mercado más que la especulación.
Los ETFs spot de EE. UU. registraron entradas netas en activos principales: • Bitcoin: 697,25 millones de dólares • Ethereum: 168,13 millones de dólares • Solana: 16,24 millones de dólares • XRP: 46,10 millones de dólares
Esto muestra el interés continuo de los institucionales en activos de gran capitalización y altcoins.
Crypto Market Update 2026 More than $250B has already flowed into crypto this year, led mainly by $BTC and $ETH.
If total market cap manages to break above $3.5T before the end of January, it could open the door for a strong altcoin season, as capital rotates beyond Bitcoin and Ethereum.
$XRP has broken above the $2.10–$2.12 resistance zone on above-average volume while exchange balances continue to fall toward multi-year lows. This points to tightening sell-side supply.
Spot XRP ETFs added $13.59M in inflows this week, reinforcing steady demand rather than short-term hype. Holding above $2.12 keeps the structure constructive, with higher levels opening if buyers stay in control.
2026 is shaping up as a transition year. Bitcoin is increasingly treated as a strategic asset, while stablecoins and real-world asset tokenization continue to grow. At the same time, new altcoin ETFs could bring broader market participation.
The focus may slowly move away from short-term hype toward real use cases and sustainable growth.
Bitcoin volatility has fallen sharply, from around 70% to 45%, and institutions are the main reason. More than 12.5% of BTC is now held by ETFs and corporate treasuries, and many of these holders are selling call options to generate yield.
This strategy increases call supply, pushes volatility lower, and keeps prices more stable. Bitcoin is slowly maturing into a yield-focused institutional asset.
$LINK/USDT is reacting well from its lower support trendline, signaling renewed demand from buyers. As long as price stays above this level, the bullish structure remains valid. A confirmed breakout above resistance could unlock further upside.
Solana is grinding higher in a clear uptrend, showing strong and controlled bullish continuation near local highs.
Price is holding above EMA 7 / 25 / 99 on the 1H chart after a clean impulsive move from 124. Market structure remains healthy with higher highs and higher lows. Current consolidation just below 133 looks like a classic bull flag.
