What changes will the crypto market experience in 2026? Ultimately, there are two main aspects.
One is policy. The US crypto legislation is almost certain to be implemented next year, and this is truly significant. With a regulatory framework in place, traditional big capital and mainstream players will actually dare to enter the market. This is not just a positive signal; real money will start flowing in. This marks a turning point from wild growth to institutionalization.
The other is quantum technology. While there is a genuine threat, honestly, it has been exaggerated. The media often amplifies the risk tenfold, causing unnecessary panic. In reality, in the short term, it’s just background noise and won’t suddenly cause a market crash. There’s no need to over-worry.
The value of leading assets like Bitcoin still largely depends on whether one can seize the policy window. From now on, only participants who understand policies and know how to strategize will be able to reap the benefits. The rules of the market are being rewritten.

Policy implementation is indeed the big picture, but to be honest, it's mostly just talk. How much real money will actually come in depends on the situation. I'm already tired of the quantum stuff, constantly alarmist, causing the market to be on edge for no reason.
Knowing policies and making arrangements sounds reasonable, but the problem is that most people simply don't understand the pitfalls within the policies.
When the market really crashes, you'll see what it means to be caught off guard.
Changing the rules seems easy, but actually doing it requires surviving first.

Policy implementation is the true watershed; the Quantum matter is just media's meal, they are just recklessly hyping it up.

Policy implementation is indeed key, but don't overestimate the speed of traditional capital; they don't enter the market that quickly. Quantum threats are still very early, and the media indeed loves to create anxiety.
---
Those who understand policies have already been laying low; the window period given this time isn't actually that long.
---
The arrival of regulatory frameworks isn't necessarily a good thing; it might even provide big institutions with tools to squeeze retail investors.
---
Quantum threats have been hyped up, but if they do happen, it will still take many years. It's better to focus on current policy trends.
---
The idea of a policy window period is a bit vague; what's really important is who can seize the opportunity.
---
Basically, the rule game is about to start, and information asymmetry is the real advantage.
