SOL is really underperforming today, while ETH is pumping hard and it's still stuck in place.

But the crypto space is pretty lively:

That bigwig from BlackRock directly defined Bitcoin as a “fear asset,” and they’re holding 780,000 BTC. Will the Fed cut rates in December? The market is giving it a 94% probability—expectations are running high. JP Morgan is even bolder, saying if Bitcoin can replicate gold’s trajectory, $170,000 isn’t a dream.

CZ even pulled out a gold bar as a prop in a debate a while back, saying verifying Bitcoin is way easier than verifying gold—what a move. Traditional finance isn’t sitting still either: Schwab and Citi plan to roll out Bitcoin-collateralized lending in early 2026, and state-owned banks in Russia are even suggesting putting 7% of assets into crypto.

The signals of institutional entry are getting clearer and clearer—now it’s just a matter of whether retail investors can keep up. SOL, come on, step up your game!
