Mercado de NFTs em 2026: Menor, Mais Afiado e Ainda Muito Vivo
Após o boom dos NFTs em 2021 e o período lento que se seguiu, as pessoas ainda perguntam: “Os NFTs estão mortos?” Em 2026, a verdadeira resposta é mais complexa e útil do que apenas hype ou apocalipse.
O mercado de NFTs não desapareceu. Em vez disso, tornou-se menor e mais profissional, com alguns vencedores e muitos projetos desaparecendo. Os volumes de negociação são muito menores do que durante o pico, mas o mercado agora tem uma atividade mais focada, usos mais claros e uma lacuna maior entre colecionáveis valiosos e o resto.

Como Algoritmos Movem Preços de Cripto: IA, Bots, Liquidez & Volatilidade Explicados
Os preços das criptomoedas não se movem aleatoriamente. Cada negociação e troca os afetam em um mercado global ininterrupto. Cada vez mais, estratégias automatizadas estão por trás desse processo. Em muitos casos, algoritmos não apenas ajudam a definir preços, mas também decidem como os preços são estabelecidos.
Bots de market-making atualizam preços em milissegundos. Sistemas de arbitragem conectam preços entre exchanges. Liquidações de DeFi acontecem quando oráculos atualizam. Todos esses fatores significam que os preços das criptomoedas de hoje são moldados por ciclos de feedback rápidos e automatizados. Isso nem sempre é manipulação, mas mostra que os computadores agora influenciam a volatilidade e a liquidez tanto quanto as pessoas.

EUA vs China: Stablecoins Atreladas ao Dólar e a Batalha do Yuan Digital pelo Poder da Moeda Global
A última fase da competição econômica entre os EUA e a China vai além de tarifas, controles de exportação ou cadeias de suprimento de chips. Agora, está ocorrendo em carteiras digitais.
Washington está contando com stablecoins privadas atreladas ao dólar, que são regulamentadas e respaldadas por reservas, para ajudar o dólar a alcançar mais pagamentos online. Em contraste, Pequim está avançando com o yuan digital controlado pelo estado (e-CNY) e projetos transfronteiriços destinados a reduzir a dependência de sistemas de pagamento centrados nos EUA.

O que são Altcoins? Tipos, Casos de Uso, Riscos e Como Eles Diferem do Bitcoin
O Bitcoin iniciou a revolução das criptomoedas, mas foi apenas o começo. Desde que o Bitcoin apareceu, milhares de novas criptomoedas foram lançadas. Cada uma tenta resolver um problema diferente, alcançar novos usuários ou testar novas tecnologias e ideias. Esses são chamados de "moedas alternativas", ou altcoins.
As altcoins podem variar amplamente. Alguns funcionam como dinheiro programável para aplicativos descentralizados, outros tentam manter um preço estável para pagamentos, e alguns principalmente reúnem comunidades online. Aprender o que são altcoins e o que elas fazem é uma maneira rápida de aumentar seu conhecimento sobre criptomoedas.

White House Talks Expose Deep Rift Between Banks and Crypto Firms Over Stablecoin Rewards
A White House–led effort to break the deadlock between U.S. banks and cryptocurrency firms over stablecoin rewards ended without an agreement on Monday, showing how entrenched industry divisions continue to stall sweeping digital-asset legislation in Congress.
The White House’s crypto policy team held a closed-door meeting with senior representatives from both the banking sector and the crypto industry. They discussed one of the main issues blocking progress on federal crypto market rules: whether stablecoins or related platforms should be allowed to offer rewards similar to interest to users.
Participants said the discussion was productive but did not lead to a conclusion. A person familiar with the meeting said no compromise was reached, and the main disagreements remain after more than two hours of talks.
Stablecoin rewards at the center of the dispute
The main issue is how the proposed Clarity Act, which aims to create clear federal rules for digital assets, should handle rewards paid on stablecoins. Traditional banks want strict rules banning these incentives. They argue that stablecoins offering rewards could take deposits away from insured banks and weaken the funding that supports consumer and small-business loans.
Crypto firms and advocacy groups say rewards are important for attracting users and competing with banks and fintech companies. They argue that banning rewards, especially those offered by third-party platforms instead of stablecoin issuers, would make it harder for digital-asset companies to compete and would slow innovation in the U.S.
The disagreement has already slowed progress on legislation. Last month, the Senate Banking Committee delayed a planned review of the Clarity Act because of growing resistance from both industries and concerns that there were not enough votes to move the bill forward.
Who was in the room
Monday’s meeting included representatives from major banking and crypto trade groups, including the American Bankers Association, the Independent Community Bankers of America, the Blockchain Association and the Digital Chamber. Executives linked to large crypto platforms, including Coinbase, also took part through industry representation.
The session was led by Patrick Witt, a senior adviser on the President’s Council of Advisors for Digital Assets. Industry sources said the White House intends to continue mediating, with follow-up meetings planned in a smaller format focused on drafting concrete legislative language.
A White House spokesperson did not respond to a request for comment.
“Constructive,” but no breakthrough
Publicly, both sides struck an optimistic tone. Blockchain Association CEO Summer Mersinger described the meeting as “an important step forward” toward bipartisan legislation, praising the administration for convening stakeholders to address one of the final obstacles to progress.
Similarly, Digital Chamber CEO Cody Carbone said the talks represented “exactly the kind of engagement needed” to keep market structure legislation moving, even though no final agreement was reached.
Behind the scenes, however, participants acknowledged the difficulty of closing the gap. One source familiar with the discussions said bank representatives appeared constrained by their member institutions and lacked flexibility to negotiate meaningful concessions on rewards.
“There was a lot of dialogue, but very little room to maneuver,” the source said, adding that the White House made clear it expects tangible progress before the end of February.
Legislative pressure builds
The timing is critical. While the House of Representatives passed its version of the Clarity Act in July, the Senate is still divided. The Senate Agriculture Committee advanced a bill last week focused on expanding the Commodity Futures Trading Commission’s role in supervising crypto markets, but it passed along party lines without Democratic support.
The more politically sensitive elements — including stablecoins, disclosure standards, and the division of authority between the Securities and Exchange Commission and the CFTC- fall under the jurisdiction of the Senate Banking Committee, where progress has been slower.
Banking groups continue to warn that poorly designed rules could threaten financial soundness. In a joint statement, the American Bankers Association and other industry groups said any legislation must preserve banks’ ability to fund local lending and protect the safety of the financial system.
Crypto advocates, meanwhile, argue that the issue of stablecoin rewards was already debated during last year’s passage of the GENIUS stablecoin law, which bars issuers from paying interest but does not prohibit rewards offered by independent platforms. They accuse banks of reopening settled questions to limit competition.
Markets watching closely
The policy uncertainty has spilled into markets. Bitcoin and other major cryptocurrencies fell sharply over the weekend before stabilizing modestly on Tuesday. Analysts say developments around market structure legislation could become a key catalyst for digital-asset prices in the weeks ahead.
For now, the White House appears committed to keeping both sides at the table. Whether that effort results in compromise - or further delay - could determine whether comprehensive U.S. crypto regulation finally moves forward this year.

El Salvador e Bitcoin: Lições do Primeiro Experimento Nacional de Cripto do Mundo
El Salvador e Bitcoin: Um Experimento Ousado, Seus Limites e as Lições para a Adoção de Cripto
Em setembro de 2021, El Salvador se tornou o primeiro país a tornar o Bitcoin uma moeda de curso legal. O presidente Nayib Bukele promoveu isso como uma forma de aumentar a inclusão financeira, a independência e a tecnologia. Os apoiadores chamaram isso de uma medida ousada contra as finanças tradicionais, mas os críticos acharam que era uma aposta arriscada para um pequeno país em desenvolvimento.
Quase quatro anos depois, o experimento do Bitcoin em El Salvador se tornou mais complicado e menos ambicioso do que inicialmente planejado. O Bitcoin não é mais obrigatório para pagamentos, e seu uso no setor público foi reduzido. No entanto, o país ainda detém Bitcoin em suas reservas e se promove como amigável aos ativos digitais.

Entendendo o Consenso da Blockchain: Prova de Trabalho, Forks e Acordo Descentralizado
Entendendo o Consenso da Blockchain: Acordo em Redes Descentralizadas
O consenso permite que uma rede descentralizada concorde com a ordem dos eventos e o estado atual dos registros sem um líder central. Em blockchains, isso permite que o banco de dados funcione em todo o mundo, mesmo que alguns usuários sejam não confiáveis, estejam offline ou tentem trapacear.
Primeiro, explicaremos o consenso a partir do básico. Em seguida, examinaremos como a prova de trabalho (PoW) do Bitcoin aborda o Problema dos Generais Bizantinos. Também abordaremos mineração, mudanças na dificuldade, forks, pools de mineração, moedas, papéis na rede, como nós e carteiras, e por que blockchains mais recentes estão experimentando outros métodos, como a prova de participação.

From Radio City in 1932 to Bitcoin today: How new networks change the economy
On December 27, 1932, Radio City Music Hall opened in New York as part of Rockefeller Center. It was built inside the “Radio City” section of the complex, designed for RCA and its radio-related enterprises, including NBC. (Wikipedia)
People often think of Radio City for its culture and architecture, but the real story is economic. Radio introduced a new way to share information, and that shift changed everything.
We see a similar pattern today with crypto. Now, the network transmits value rather than sound.
Radio’s real innovation was not entertainment; it was synchronized attention
Radio allowed the same message to reach millions of people nearly simultaneously. This led to new ways for people to coordinate, and money soon followed.
Even during the Great Depression, radio advertising spending grew sharply. A Library of Congress guide notes that annual radio ad spending in 1933 was seven times higher than in 1927. (Research Guides)
Academic research on the period shows that network radio time expenditures rose rapidly from 1927 through the early 1930s, reinforcing the same point: once the medium reached critical mass, budgets shifted toward it. (Carleton University Library Journals)
This was more than just a marketing story. It was also about trust and stability. Roosevelt’s famous “fireside chats” used radio to speak directly to people during hard times, showing how new networks change how confidence is built and lost. (Wikimedia Commons)
The part everyone forgets: new networks also create new bubbles
New ways to share information often lead to a common mistake. People see a big change happening, but they misjudge the price.
The classic example from the radio era is RCA. A Stanford University Press excerpt describes RCA stock rising from $43 in 1926 to $568 in September 1929, then collapsing to $15 in 1932, and not recovering to 1929 levels until the 1960s. (Stanford University Press)
This isn’t a story about radio failing. Radio changed the world. The mistake was believing that being right about the future means today’s price is correct.
That lesson still matters today, and crypto has gone through it even faster. The same pattern repeats, but at a quicker pace and with higher stakes.
Crypto is a global market that runs nonstop. A single post, screenshot, or video can move the price before anyone has time to check the facts.
A clean example is January 2024, when the SEC’s X account was compromised, and a false message briefly moved Bitcoin’s price before it was corrected. Reuters reported that Bitcoin spiked on the fake post and then dropped minutes later after the SEC disavowed it. (Reuters)
This is today’s version of radio’s synchronized attention effect. The big difference now is speed.
The bubble and miscalculation side of the story also appears in crypto:
In May 2022, Reuters reported that TerraUSD (UST) broke its 1:1 peg to the U.S. dollar and fell as low as $0.67, hitting wider crypto markets. (Reuters)Reuters later summarized 2022 as a year in which the wider crypto market shrank by $1.4 trillion, pressured by failures including those of FTX, Celsius, and TerraUSD/Luna. (Reuters)Reuters also reported that at least $1 billion of customer funds were missing at FTX, according to people familiar with the matter. (Reuters)
These were not just volatile prices. They were broken assumptions, design flaws, too much leverage, and trust without proper controls.
This pattern is similar to what happened with RCA in the 1920s. Transformational technology can be real, but the market stories built around it can still fall apart.
A note from history: networks grow because people take risks
Radio did not become an industry because a committee planned it all. Economic historians say the early radio industry was built by inventor-entrepreneurs, people who took both technical and business risks. (eh.net) Radio City itself has a very human story. The opening night program was so long and packed with acts that many people left early, and reviews were harsh. It reminds us that scale does not guarantee product-market fit on day one. (Wikipedia)
The same thing happens in crypto. Bitcoin is a long-running network. Around it, thousands of projects try to find their place, and many fail. These failures are hard, but they help markets learn what works.
What Bitcoin changes, even when the price is quiet
Bitcoin’s biggest impact isn’t about its price. It’s about how it changes what people expect:
markets that never closeThe settlement and custody industries built around a digital bearer asseta global asset that reacts instantly to distribution and narrative
That’s why “Bitcoin price today” is rarely just a number. It reflects technology, liquidity, and the fastest narrative machine ever built.
So the real question is: how can you watch BTC without getting distracted by all the noise?
The lesson worth keeping: track context, not headlines
When information moves faster, quick reactions can backfire. It’s better to rely on a repeatable process instead of opinions.
Here is a weekly framework that works well in noisy markets:
Start with the regime: Is Bitcoin trending or ranging on the daily chart?Wait for confirmation: does the move hold into the close, or is it just a wick and fade?Check participation: look at 24h volume and liquidity conditions, not just the BTC price.Define invalidation: decide where you are wrong before you act.

Radio brought people’s attention together. Bitcoin brings value transfer together.
The main lesson from 1932 isn’t about nostalgia. It’s both a warning and a tool. New networks create real economic value, but they also amplify human mistakes.
If you can slow down enough to watch the context and manage risk, you give yourself the one advantage that still matters in fast markets: a steady process.

Nota Semanal do Mercado de Cripto: Tape Silenciosa, Pavios Barulhentos
Olá Binance Square, este é o nosso primeiro relatório semanal de mercado. Vamos manter isso consistente e útil: o que se moveu, o que não se moveu, e quais níveis realmente importaram. Sem hype, sem “chamadas garantidas.” Apenas um resumo limpo que você pode verificar no gráfico.
O que aconteceu esta semana
Este foi um clássico final de semana de ano: liquidez fina, maiores oscilações intradiárias e não muito acompanhamento. Vimos um rebote a partir das mínimas, depois o preço passou a maior parte do tempo cortando dentro de uma faixa apertada em vez de seguir uma tendência clara. Esse é o tipo de tape onde é fácil ser cortado se você perseguir cada movimento.
