📈 Gold or stocks: which is more profitable over 25 years

If you had invested $10,000 in the S&P 500 in 2000, you would now have $77,495.

But if you had invested the same $10,000 in gold, your capital would have grown to $126,596.

Despite crises, inflation, and wars, it is gold that preserved and multiplied capital more than 12 times.

🔗 X Senior Official Announces Good News for Cryptocurrencies on the Platform – But It Could Be Bad News for Some Altcoins

Nikita Bier, X Product Leader and Solana ecosystem consultant, stated that he supports the increasing use of cryptocurrencies on the social media platform X, but opposes application models that encourage spam and harassment.

Bier stated in his assessment that he “really wants” cryptocurrencies to become widespread on X, but noted that some applications have established reward mechanisms that encourage users to spam, organize and create unwanted content, and harass random users. Arguing that such incentive systems negatively impact the experience for millions of users, Bier said, “This approach only enriches a small number of people while significantly degrading the platform experience.”

Among altcoins that allow users to earn tokens by posting on X, KAITO and Cookie DAO stand out.

Bier also announced that X will be rolling out a number of new features in the coming weeks. The most notable of these is “Smart Cashtags”.

Thanks to the new feature, users will be able to conduct stock and cryptocurrency transactions directly through their timeline. This integration is expected to make financial asset transactions more integrated with the social media experience.

⚡️ Two Experienced Experts Comment on Whether We’ve Seen the Bottom in Bitcoin – Is the Worst Behind Us?

Following Bitcoin’s drop to the $60,000 level in the cryptocurrency market, two prominent market figures offered assessments suggesting that the bottom may have been reached.

Kip Herriage, founder and managing partner of Vertical Research Advisory, argued that Bitcoin has bottomed out. According to Herriage, there has been a “clear sell-off peak” in BlackRock’s spot Bitcoin ETF, iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT).

Herriage noted that during the period when trading volume reached record levels on IBIT, Bitcoin’s Relative Strength Index (RSI) fell to its third-highest ever oversold level. He also pointed out that during the same period, the Bitcoin Fear & Greed Index dropped to 5, its lowest point in history.

Herriage stated that according to VRA systems, IBIT has fallen to a level “beyond oversold,” adding, “The rubber band has been stretched too far. As a result, we believe bottom levels have been reached. We are buyers.”

On the other hand, Jurrien Timmer said that Bitcoin’s drop to $60,000 last week coincided with the support zone he had previously indicated. Timmer recalled that in his analysis a few months ago, he had stated that the four-year bull cycle might have come to an end.

According to Timmer, Bitcoin’s drop to $60,000 represents a relatively limited correction compared to past “crypto winters.” Stating that Bitcoin has matured into a “commodity currency” over time, Timmer suggested that price fluctuations may be less severe than in the past.

Noting that it is unclear whether $60,000 is the definitive bottom, Timmer stated that his own prediction is that this level is the bottom. A new cyclical bull market may begin after a few months of sideways and volatile movements. Pointing to the “mathematical congruence” in past cycles, Timmer said this is not a guarantee for future performance, but new highs are possible over time.

💥 After 95% Crash, Avalanche Forms High-Timeframe Reversal Structure

After enduring a brutal 95%+ drawdown from its 2021 peak, Avalanche is now showing early signs of a potential high-timeframe reversal. With price stabilizing at macro support and forming an emerging Elliott Wave structure on the weekly chart, the current phase could mark a critical turning point in the broader cycle.

🔸 Weekly Elliott Wave Structure Signals Macro Inflection

AVAX is currently forming an Elliott Wave structure on the weekly chart, trading within a massive descending channel that has remained intact since the 2021 all-time high. The broader structure suggests the asset is still operating within a long-term corrective phase, but key technical signals now point to a potential higher-timeframe inflection point.

After enduring a brutal 95%+ cycle correction, Avalanche appears to have completed Wave 1 with a macro low near $5.67. Price is now transitioning into the early stages of a Wave 2 recovery phase, a critical moment in the Elliott Wave sequence that often determines whether a sustainable expansion phase can follow.

Structurally, the weekly chart shows several notable developments. Wave 1 seems to have finalized within the $8–$5 macro bottoming zone, establishing a potential base of support. At the same time, price continues to trade within the long-term descending channel that has defined the broader downtrend.

Technically, the chart reflects a clean bearish breakdown followed by a retest of the lower trendline, a classic deviation setup. Additionally, AVAX executed a liquidity sweep into the weekly demand zone between $8 and $7. Meanwhile, the overall fractal structure also mirrors the compression phase seen in the previous cycle before expansion.

For confirmation the need for sustained weekly strength and expansion back toward mid-channel resistance. A decisive push in that direction would strengthen the bullish Wave 2 thesis and signal that the larger recovery structure is beginning to unfold.

📈 $XRP Rises to $1.42 After 2.4% CPI Print, March 4 Fed Beige Book Next

XRP drew fresh buying interest after U.S. inflation data came in softer than expected, with January CPI rising 0.2% month over month and annual inflation easing to 2.4%. After an initial 0.95% dip, the token rebounded 3.76% and hit a peak at $1.422 at press time. With CPI absorbed, attention now shifts to the Fed’s Beige Book on March 4.

🔸 XRP response to January CPI data

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, January CPI rose 0.2% month over month, below the 0.3% consensus, while annual inflation eased to 2.4%, marking one of the lowest readings in nearly five years. Core CPI matched expectations at 0.3% month over month. On paper, this was a constructive print for risk assets. In practice, the reaction was more complex.

XRP initially slipped 0.95% in the immediate aftermath of the release, reflecting the algorithmic volatility typical around macro data. Buyers then stepped in, lifting the token by 2.29% from the local low. At the time of writing, XRP is trading near $1.4092, up about 3.57% on the day, suggesting that dip demand remains active above the $1.36-$1.37 intraday support.

🔸 "New normal": 3% inflation target?

The most critical takeaway for crypto investors is not the 2.4% figure itself but the market’s reassessment of the Fed’s reaction function.

There is growing institutional consensus that the Federal Reserve may tolerate a higher long-term inflation range — 2.5% to 3.5% — rather than forcing a recession to hit the historical 2% target. If this "higher-for-longer" inflation framework gains traction, high-beta assets like XRP and hard assets like gold may continue to reprice upward as real rates adjust.

The focus now shifts to the Fed Beige Book on March 4. While not a formal rate-setting meeting, this report will provide the qualitative "boots-on-the-ground" economic data needed to confirm if the January disinflation trend is sustainable.

🟣 Solana Reclaims $80 Amid Friday Market Bounce – Analysts Set Next Targets

As the crypto market recovers, Solana (#SOL ) has bounced from a major level trendline and momentarily reclaimed a key horizontal level. Some analysts have signaled that a retest of a crucial short-term resistance could be coming, while others have warned that a breakdown to new lows remains possible.

Solana Bounces From Two-Year Trendline

On Friday, Solana bounced 10.3% to break past the $85 area for the first time in three days. The cryptocurrency has been hovering between $78-$88 over the past week, briefly falling to $67 during last Thursday’s correction.

SOL lost the mid-zone of its local range after recent market volatility, falling below $80 on Thursday. However, Today’s rebound has sent the altcoin above these recently lost levels, setting the stage for a potential recovery.

Amid this performance, market observer Crypto Trades highlighted that the cryptocurrency has reclaimed the key $80 level, which has historically served as major resistance and support.

To the trader, the Solana must hold above this area and form a base above it before “watching for a low-timeframe market structure break back to bullish.” Analyst Ali Martinez observed that sustained buying pressure could push SOL’s price toward the $88 level, not seen since the start of the week.

The altcoin has been unable to break above this level since last week’s breakdown, becoming a key short-term resistance area. A breakout from this level could open the door for a retest of the $90-$96 zone, where the April 2025 lows are.

Meanwhile, Crypto Batman noted that #Solana is retesting its two-year descending trendline in the weekly timeframe, located around the recent lows. The chart shows that the macro trendline has been holding since early 2024 and has been tapped multiple times throughout the cycle.

As the analyst explained, “Over the past 2 years, every time the price touches this level, a massive reversal occurs.” During this period, it has also marked the bottom of each major correction.

🤔 When Will Bitcoin Bounce Back? Top Analyst Breaks Down Prior Major Corrections

As Bitcoin ($BTC ) trades roughly 50% below its all‑time high, investors are once again asking the familiar question: how long does recovery usually take? Market analyst Sam Daodu believes history offers valuable clues.

🔸 No Systemic Bitcoin Collapse This Time?

Daodu notes that steep corrections are not unusual for Bitcoin. Since 2011, the cryptocurrency has endured more than 20 pullbacks exceeding 40%. Mid‑cycle declines in the 35% to 50% range have often cooled overheated rallies without permanently derailing long‑term uptrends.

In situations where there was no systemic breakdown in the broader market, Bitcoin has typically reclaimed prior highs in about 14 months. He contrasts the current environment with 2022, when multiple structural failures shook the crypto industry.

At present, there is no comparable collapse rippling through the system. The analyst highlighted that #BTC ’s realized price—currently near $55,000—may provide a psychological and technical floor, as long‑term holders have historically accumulated coins around that level.

Whether the present downturn evolves into a drawn‑out slump or a shorter reset, Daodu suggests, will largely hinge on global liquidity conditions and investor sentiment.

🔸 A Look Back At Historic Selloffs

During the 2021–2022 cycle, Bitcoin peaked at $69,000 in November 2021 before tumbling to $15,500 one year later, a 77% drop. The downturn coincided with monetary tightening by the US Federal Reserve, alongside the collapse of the Terra (Luna) ecosystem and FTX’s bankruptcy.

It ultimately took 28 months for Bitcoin to surpass its previous high, which it did in March 2024. At the market bottom, long‑term holders controlled roughly 60% of circulating supply, absorbing coins from forced sellers.

The 2020 COVID‑19 crash unfolded very differently. In March of that year, Bitcoin plunged about 58%, sliding from approximately $9,100 to $3,800 as global lockdowns triggered a liquidity shock.

💥 HBAR price nears breakout as inverse head and shoulders pattern forms

HBAR price is consolidating below key resistance as an inverse head and shoulders pattern develops, signaling a potential bullish breakout if the neckline resistance is cleared with volume.

HBAR ($HBAR ) price action is showing increasingly constructive behavior as the market builds a classic bullish reversal structure on the higher timeframes. After an extended corrective phase, price has stabilized and begun forming an inverse head and shoulders pattern, a formation often associated with trend reversals when confirmed by a breakout above resistance.

This structure is developing just beneath a key high-timeframe resistance level, placing HBAR at a critical inflection point. With price holding above key value levels and volume remaining supportive, the technical setup suggests that bullish momentum may be building beneath the surface.

HBAR’s recent price action has carved out a well-defined inverse head-and-shoulders pattern, consisting of a left shoulder, head, and right shoulder. This structure typically forms after sustained downside pressure and reflects a gradual shift in control from sellers to buyers.

The neckline of this pattern is clearly defined near the $0.09 level, which also aligns with a high-timeframe resistance zone. This confluence strengthens the importance of the level, as a breakout above the neckline would represent both a pattern confirmation and a structural shift.

Throughout the formation, price has respected higher lows, indicating that downside momentum is weakening and buyers are increasingly willing to step in earlier.

🔸 Volume and point of control support the setup

One of the more constructive aspects of HBAR’s setup is how volume behaves during consolidation. Price is currently trading above the point of control, where the highest concentration of traded volume has accumulated. Holding above this level suggests acceptance at higher prices and reinforces the bullish narrative.

💢 Will crypto survive the AI scare trade

The AI scare trade has been used to explain price drops across multiple industries. Crypto has also fallen with the rest of the market, also falling prey to the influential market narrative.

The AI scare trade spread contagion across markets. The narrative that new AI-powered tools can upend business models of major industries caused panic selling in multiple sectors of the stock market.

The AI scare trade first showed its effect in January and has since become a major narrative over the past two weeks. The first industry to be affected was software, as the S&P software industry index dropped by over 18% in the year-to-date.

The narrative spilled over to other stocks, including private credit companies, insurance, real estate, precious metals, and other markets.

At this point, it remains unclear if AI-based products really exist to disrupt entire industries and their know-how. Yet even the expectation is enough to exacerbate the price drop.

🔸 Will crypto survive the AI scare trade?

BTC has historically behaved in ways similar to NASDAQ, though with a higher volatility. In this case, BTC is tracking the software industry index, with deeper losses in 2026.

During the latest overall market downturn, BTC slid into the $65,000 range, showing vulnerability to the AI scare trade in the short term. The price of BTC has not reacted to news of AI agents being deployed in the crypto ecosystem.

In the past weeks, the AI scare trade showed that development did not lead to market optimism and did not lift all boats. This added to the uncertainty for BTC, extending the slide, as there are no signs of aggressively buying the dip. The AI scare trade arrived at a time of peak market uncertainty, causing a worsening spiral of market sentiment.

🔸 Is the AI scare trade real?

In the past day, the AI scare trade affected the logistics industry, where claims were made that AI products could resolve freight stress points and increase capacity.

📊 Bitcoin risk-reward has shifted after recent selloff: on-chain analyst

Bitcoin’s recent price decline has prompted market analysts to assess whether a price floor is forming, with one prominent on-chain researcher stating the risk-reward profile has shifted following the selloff.

James “Checkmate” Check, a former lead researcher at Glassnode and author of Check On Chain, told What Bitcoin Did host Danny Knowles that Bitcoin entered “deep value” territory across multiple mean-reversion frameworks when it dropped into recent price zones, according to statements made on the podcast. Check noted that capitulation-style losses spiked to levels last seen at the 2022 cycle lows.

Check stated that if Bitcoin is not trending toward zero, the statistical setup appears increasingly asymmetric after the selloff. The analyst said the current environment represents a time for market participants to pay attention rather than lose focus.

The researcher said he was focused on market structure rather than identifying a single forced seller behind the price movement.

Check offered a probabilistic assessment, stating that the odds of a bottom forming have increased significantly. He said the probability that the market has already set a meaningful low stands at more than 50%, likely around 60%, according to his analysis. The analyst assigned low odds to Bitcoin reaching a new all-time high within the year without a major macroeconomic shift or significant market event.

Regarding exchange-traded funds, Check cited billions in outflows during the drawdown, but characterized the situation as positioning unwinds rather than structural failure. He noted that at an earlier peak, approximately 62% of cumulative inflows were underwater, while ETF assets under management declined only in the mid-single digits. Check suggested earlier outflows aligned with CME open interest, consistent with basis-trade adjustments.

The analyst criticized reliance on the four-year halving cycle as a timing tool, calling it an “unnecessary bias.”

🔵 Charles Hoskinson confirms deal to onboard LayerZero on Cardano

Input Output Global (IOG) founder Charles Hoskinson announced Thursday that Midnight, the company's long-awaited privacy-focused blockchain, will officially launch during the final week of March.

The announcement came during Hoskinson's keynote speech at Consensus Hong Kong, marking a major step forward in IOG's efforts to bring data protection and regulatory compliance to decentralized systems.

"We have some great collaborations to help us run it," he said. "Google is one of them. Telegram is another. We're really excited, there's more that will come."

Midnight uses zero-knowledge (ZK) proofs to enable selective disclosure. Think of it as a smart curtain for blockchain data, letting users share only what they choose while keeping the rest private. It works as a partner chain to the smart contract platform Cardano and provides privacy and regulatory compliance for decentralized applications.

Alongside the mainnet timeline, Hoskinson unveiled Midnight City Simulation, an interactive platform offering a glimpse of how Midnight's delivers scalable privacy through selective disclosure. The so-called rational privacy ensures that transaction data remains private by default, while specific information can be shared with authorized parties when required.

This flexibility balances transparency and confidentiality on the blockchain through multiple disclosure views, categorized as public, auditor, and god, each with a different access level.

The simulation, hosted at midnight city, became operational at 10:00 a.m. Hong Kong time Thursday, although public access to the simulation remains restricted until Feb. 26, according to a press release.

The simulation, which runs on the Midnight network and recruits AI-driven agents that interact unpredictably to create a steady flow of transactions, shows how well the blockchain can handle real-world demand and scales accordingly.

📈 Berachain Jumps 150% as Strategic Pivot Lifts $BERA

Berachain’s native token, BERA, surged over 150% on February 11, marking its sharpest single-day gain in months. The rally follows weeks of renewed activity after the project spent much of 2025 under pressure from falling prices, token unlock concerns, and investor uncertainty.

The immediate catalyst appears to be the foundation’s strategic shift toward a new model called “Bera Builds Businesses.”

💬 BERA +130% today out of nowhere. Funding is a casual -5,900% — TylerD

🔸 Berachain’s Refund Fears to Revenue Ambitions: What Changed?

Announced in January, the initiative aims to back three to five revenue-generating applications designed to create sustainable demand for BERA.

Instead of relying on heavy token incentives, the network now plans to focus on projects capable of producing real cash flow.

Throughout 2025, Berachain struggled as TVL (total value locked) collapsed from early highs, and the token fell more than 90% from its peak. Critics questioned whether its incentive-heavy growth model could survive a prolonged market downturn.

However, another major overhang also disappeared this month.

A controversial refund clause tied to Brevan Howard’s Nova Digital fund expired on February 6, 2026. The clause reportedly allowed the investor to request a $25 million refund if performance conditions were not met.

With the deadline passing, traders appear to view the removal of that risk as structurally positive.

At the same time, a large token unlock event also cleared without triggering heavy selling. That outcome fueled what analysts describe as a “relief rally.”

On-chain and derivatives data show rising trading volume and increasing open interest.

Liquidation heatmaps indicate clustered short positions above key resistance levels, suggesting that short covering may have amplified upward momentum.

Still, risks remain.

📊 Solana Distribution Pattern Keeps $190 in Focus for Bulls

Solana extended its decline this week as selling pressure pushed the token toward a critical technical zone. The asset trades near $80 after losing over 12% in seven days. Daily volume exceeds $4.3 billion, showing active positioning from both bulls and bears.

With a market cap above $45 billion, Solana remains a major large-cap asset. However, analysts now debate whether this level marks a short-term floor or signals further downside.

🔸 Support at $72 and $64 Faces Early Pressure

Morecryptoonl notes that market structure still looks weak on higher timeframes. The analyst explains that buyers must defend price before a break below $72.

Otherwise, the probability of another leg lower increases. Moreover, the chart lacks a clear five-wave impulsive move upward. Hence, conviction around a confirmed bottom remains limited.

If buyers step in quickly, last week’s low could hold as a base. However, that scenario requires a decisive break above $90. Without that breakout, risk stays tilted toward another sweep of liquidity. Morecryptoonl identifies $62 as the next key support if weakness continues.

Additionally, ErickCrypto21M tracks similar levels but places stronger emphasis on $64. According to that analysis, $64 acts as major structural support. The analyst sees resistance around $95 before any sustained upside.

Consequently, price may retest $64 before attempting a broader recovery. A move above $95 would improve medium-term sentiment significantly.

🔸 Distribution Pattern Keeps $190 in Focus

Beyond short-term levels, Solana still trades inside a broad distribution range. The token rejected the prior 2021 all-time high zone near $260. Since then, price carved a visible head-and-shoulders structure. Breakdown pressure accelerated toward the $80–$81 area. This zone now serves as critical short-term support.

ReetikaTrades references Capo’s broader outlook on Solana. That view anticipates a sharp rebound toward $190 before deeper downside.

🔸 BNB price slips below $620 golden pocket, now testing long-term support near $609

BNB price is now trading around $609, slipping below the previously defended $620 golden pocket level and putting long-term support to the test.

Binance ($BNB ) is once again at a critical inflection point after losing the $620 region that had been acting as a high-timeframe support cluster. Following weeks of corrective pressure, price briefly stabilized at the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement before slipping modestly lower, now hovering near $609.

This move shifts the technical narrative slightly: rather than cleanly holding support, BNB is now probing the lower bounds of a major confluence zone. Whether this becomes a deviation below support or the start of deeper consolidation will likely define the next multi-week trend.

The $620 level continues to carry heavy technical weight. It marks the 0.618 Fibonacci retracement of the broader advance — often referred to as the “golden pocket,” a zone that frequently acts as a high-probability reversal area.

However, with BNB now trading below that level, the focus shifts to whether this is a temporary liquidity sweep or a more meaningful breakdown.

Importantly, price remains near the 200-week moving average — a widely followed macro trend indicator. Historically, sustained closes below this level tend to invite extended consolidation, while swift recoveries often signal a false breakdown.

🔸 Market structure supports a potential bottom

From a broader market structure perspective, the chart has not yet confirmed a full trend reversal. While the loss of $620 weakens the immediate bullish structure, BNB has not decisively broken down into lower macro territory.

This type of price action — slipping below support before reclaiming it — is common during bottoming formations. Markets often sweep liquidity below obvious levels before rotating higher.

If buyers step in and push price back above $620 with conviction and expanding volume, the move could be classified as a deviation.

⚡️Here’s Why The Bitcoin And Ethereum Prices Are Pumping Again

The Bitcoin and Ethereum prices have rebounded from last week’s lows, providing optimism that the bottom may be in. This comes amid accumulation from whales while the crypto ETFs have seen notable inflows following last week’s outflows.

🔸 Why The Bitcoin And Ethereum Prices Are Climbing Again

The Bitcoin and Ethereum prices have pumped from their last week’s lows of around $60,000 and $1,900, respectively. BTC climbed to as high as $71,000, sparking bullish sentiments that the crash to $60,000 may have marked the bottom. These price surges have come on the back of significant accumulation from both retail and institutional investors.

In an X post, on-chain analytics platform Lookonchain revealed two whales that are buying Bitcoin and Ethereum. These two newly created wallets are said to have withdrawn 3,500 BTC, worth $249 million, and 30,000 ETH, worth $63 million, from Binance, likely to hold these coins for the long term.

Furthermore, Bitcoin and Ethereum prices have also rebounded due to renewed inflows into $BTC and $ETH ETFs. SoSoValue data shows that the BTC ETFs recorded a daily net inflow of $145 million yesterday, sustaining the momentum from last Friday, when they took in $371 million, after recording three consecutive days of outflows.

Ethereum ETFs saw daily net inflows of $57 million yesterday, reversing the trend after seeing three consecutive daily net outflows. Tom Lee’s BitMine also continues to buy more ETH, which is a positive for the Ethereum price. Lookonchain revealed that BitMine bought 40,000 ETH, worth $83 million, yesterday. These purchases come just after the company announced it had purchased 40,613 ETH, valued at $82.85 million, last week.

It is also worth highlighting external factors that have contributed to the recent rise in Bitcoin and Ethereum prices. Tensions between the U.S. and Iran appear to have cooled following talks last Friday, after initial reports that the talks were unlikely to proceed.

🟢 Bitcoin Cash – Analyzing why a drop below $500 might be good news for buyers

Bitcoin Cash [$BCH ] is one of the only top-10 crypto assets with a bullish weekly price chart. The second most-hopeful candidate seemed to be Binance Coin [BNB], but it has been laboring under the effects of a 54% drawdown in 4 months.

On the contrary, Bitcoin Cash has traded within a range for nearly 20 months. This range reached from $272 to $640, giving swing traders plenty of opportunities.

That long-term buyers will want to see the range highs broken and flipped to support before looking to ride the trend higher. The bulls threatened a breakout in early January, but it did not succeed, and the market-wide sell-off forced a retracement.

The network appears to be in a healthy state right now though. The rising number of transactions and heightened whale activity at press time indicated substantial liquidity movement on-chain in recent weeks.

🔸 Swing traders watch the mid-range level for the next move

Since the second week of October, BCH has wicked below the $456 mid-range support three times on the 1-week timeframe. A session close below it has not occurred yet, keeping the bullish Bitcoin Cash case alive.

The A/D indicator has trended higher since 2024 – A sign of steady buying pressure. The weekly RSI was at 47, indicative of neutral momentum.

Combined with the long-term price action, a dip to the $440-$460 zone likely represented a low-risk, high-reward buying opportunity.

🔸 Local supply zone could trigger another price drop

The liquidation heatmap revealed that the $550 and $610 levels were notable nearby magnetic zones.

They have a high potential of attracting prices higher before a reversal. The local supply at $550 especially has been collecting liquidity for ten days.

Finally, the 4-hour chart captured how #BCH bulls were unable to pierce $540.

Therefore, a short squeeze towards $550-$560 before a price drop to $460 is a possibility traders can exploit. This setup would be invalidated if #BitcoinCash climbs above $580.

🪙 Ripple to host $XRP Community Day 2026 tomorrow with Grayscale, Gemini, and ecosystem leadership

Ripple will host XRP Community Day 2026 tomorrow, bringing together XRP holders, builders, financial institutions, and Ripple leadership for a global virtual event focused on real-world adoption and the future of the XRP Ledger (XRPL) ecosystem.

Returning for its second year, the event spotlights how XRP is actively used today while looking ahead to what’s next. It will explore topics like regulated products, DeFi applications, wrapped XRP, and next-generation XRPL infrastructure, Ripple shared in a recent press release.

Ripple CEO Brad Garlinghouse, President Monica Long, and ecosystem partners will share insights alongside institutional participants such as Grayscale, Gemini, and the XRPL projects.

Key sessions include capital markets and tokenized finance in EMEA, XRPL feature updates and national crypto initiatives in the Americas, and cross-chain innovation, stablecoins, and DeFi in APAC, with speakers from Uphold, Solana Foundation, EasyA, and Flare Network, among others.

A major focus this year will be XRP ETFs, which continue to attract institutional interest.

Data from SoSoValue shows that five US-listed XRP funds have collectively drawn $1.2 billion in net inflows, with total net assets surpassing $1 billion.

While modest compared to Bitcoin and Ethereum investment products, these steady inflows indicate growing institutional confidence in XRP’s long-term role in the digital asset market.

Momentum for the asset class accelerated after Ripple resolved its prolonged legal dispute with the SEC last year, removing a key regulatory obstacle that had previously clouded XRP’s status.
