Only Cryptos

On the first edition of 2025, we shared what analysts thought would happen in crypto this year.
Big numbers. Bold calls. Maximum confidence.
Now that 2025 is officially in the rearview mirror, we're looking back at what they said…
and comparing it to what actually happened.
Spoiler: some takes aged like fine wine... and others aged like milk.

1/ Bitcoin
Many forecasts expected BTC to reach new all-time highs well above $150K in 2025.
Bitcoin did reach a record high around $126K... but then dropped, and we ended the year at around $87K.
The verdict:
❌ Bullish energy was right... but magnitude + sustainability were overestimated.

2/ Ethereum
Forecasts last year pointed to Ethereum surging into the $5.5K - $8K range.
And while ETH did see notable price increases at various points, it never went above $4.9K.
The verdict:
❌ Fundamentals did improve... but the price never matched the hopium.
Source: BitDegree

3/ Solana
Solana targets were as high as $500 - $750.
And in reality, Solana and many altcoins saw a lot of interest... but no sustained breakout to those numbers.
The verdict:
❌ Ecosystem stayed alive and active, but price lagged.

4/ Crypto ETFs
The expectation was that ETFs would outperform already-strong 2024 inflows, BTC ETF assets would push above $250B, and there'd be massive ETH ETF demand.
ETF adoption did continue and became normalized across portfolios, but inflows were uneven and fell short of the most aggressive projections.
The verdict:
❌ Structural win, numerical miss.

5/ Crypto IPO wave
Forecasts named Circle, Figure, Kraken, Anchorage Digital, and Chainalysis as 2025 IPO candidates.
👉 Circle did go public.
👉 Kraken advanced IPO preparations but did not complete a listing in 2025.
👉 Others remained private.
The verdict:
✅ Circle delivered.
❌ The rest slipped.

6/ AI agents & memecoin mania
The idea was that AI-launched tokens would ignite a bigger memecoin mania than 2024.
What actually happened: AI stayed hot as a narrative, but AI agents did not dominate markets.
The verdict:
❌ Miss.

7/ Strategic Bitcoin reserve in the US
The prediction was that the US would move toward a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve.
And the US did sign an executive order establishing a Strategic Bitcoin Reserve, funded with Bitcoin the government already held.
However, no confirmed new BTC purchases took place.
The verdict:
✅ Reserve created.
❌ But the US didn't start buying.

8/ More countries holding Bitcoin
Some analysts thought that said that at least 5 new countries would add BTC, others even went as far as to say that the number of BTC-holding nations would double.
And while there was some interest and exploration in 2025, there was no major wave of public reserve additions.
The verdict:
❌ Miss.

9/ Coinbase + MicroStrategy level up
Forecast: Coinbase into S&P 500, MicroStrategy into Nasdaq-100.
The verdict:
✅ Both happened.
Source: @coinbase

10/ Stablecoins
Forecasts called for:
👉 Stablecoin assets doubling to ~$400B;
👉 $300B in daily transactions;
👉 10+ TradFi-backed stablecoins launching.
Reality:
Stablecoins were one of 2025's strongest themes.
Assets and transaction volume expanded materially, regulation clarity improved, TradFi participation increased, and Circle's IPO reinforced stablecoins as core financial infrastructure, even if not every numeric target was hit.
The verdict:
✅ W!

Final verdict
2025 wasn't about price fireworks. It was about infrastructure, regulation, and slower-than-expected maturity.
The forecasts assumed speed. Reality delivered progress - just at half the pace.
And what could we expect in 2026?..

TLDR
Rekt (REKT) is a Web3 consumer brand merging crypto culture with physical products, using its token to reward community engagement and unlock exclusive perks.
Cultural bridge – Connects crypto memes with real-world beverages and merchandise
Token utility – Grants early access to product drops and events through ownership
Community engine – Rewards participation in brand-building activities

Deep Dive
Purpose & Value Proposition
Rekt began as a crypto meme (“rekt” = slang for catastrophic losses) but evolved into a lifestyle brand selling limited-edition drinks (e.g., “Liquidated Lime,” “Moon Crush”) and NFTs.
Its core mission is to blend Web3 loyalty mechanics with mainstream consumer goods, creating a “cultural flywheel” where token holders drive brand growth (Decrypt).

Tokenomics & Governance
The REKT token (420.69 trillion supply) incentivizes participation:
- Drank Points: Earned through purchases or social media quests, convertible to token multipliers
- Access: Holders get priority for product drops (e.g., drinks sold out in <48 hours in 2024)
- Governance: Community votes on partnerships, like the GameSquare deal adding $2M REKT to the esports firm’s treasury (MoonCat).

Ecosystem Fundamentals
Physical products: 1M+ drinks sold via direct e-commerce, stocked in 7-Eleven stores
NFTs: Rektguy collection (40K ETH volume) ties into token benefits
Partnerships: Collaborations with MoonPay, FaZe Clan, and Coinbase’s Base chain enhance reach.

Conclusion
REKT exemplifies a “brand coin” – leveraging crypto-native communities to scale real-world products while rewarding early adopters.
Its success hinges on maintaining exclusivity and cultural relevance: 
Can Rekt balance mass-market appeal with the scarcity that fuels its Web3 appeal?

BNB Chain used 2025 to quietly upgrade the basics: faster blocks, cheaper fees, and a smoother experience for busy on-chain apps.
Two major hardforks — Lorentz and Maxwell — made the network noticeably snappier, setting the stage for a strong year in trading activity. On-chain DEX volume hit new highs, with perps venues like Aster helping drive the momentum.
Even through choppy markets, BNB (BNB) has stayed relatively resilient compared with many large-cap alts. And with scaling efforts like opBNB continuing to expand, the ecosystem is heading into 2026 with more “mainstream-ready” infrastructure than ever.
As 2025 draws to a close, here’s how BNB Chain may evolve in 2026 and beyond.

#Major Upgrades Go Live
2025’s headline was performance: BNB Chain claims it has handled 12.4M daily transactions and hit a 17.6M single-day record post-upgrades. For context, BscScan has also shown historical daily peaks above this in prior cycles.
The roadmap for the rest of 2025 is explicitly about scaling for trading demand — raising block gas limits toward 1G and targeting up to 5,000 DEX swaps per second.
Because of this, expect “exchange-grade” throughput to become the default in 2026. This will help its burgeoning DEX landscape offer CEX-like performance while enabling a range of high-throughput applications, such as on-chain prediction markets and Web3 games.
Crucially, 2026 isn’t just “more of the same.” It starts with upgrades that are already scheduled. The Fermi hardfork is set for mainnet on Jan 14, 2026, and aims to tighten the loop further by shortening the block interval to 0.45s, improving fast finality stability, and shipping execution and state efficiency primitives like EVM Super Instructions.

Later upgrades might include sub-150ms confirmations, a more parallelizable VM, and native privacy primitives moving to implementation.

#Privacy Focus
For years, “privacy” on smart-contract chains has been bolted on via apps, mixers, or specialized sidechains or layer 2s — usually at the cost of UX or compliance ambiguity.
In 2026, expect BNB Chain to ship protocol-level privacy that’s actually usable. The public roadmap explicitly calls out native privacy for token transfers and smart contract calls, aiming for “compliance-friendly confidentiality” at the protocol level.
If delivered well, this unlocks a huge category of real-world on-chain activity: private payroll, confidential trading strategies, consumer payments with less leakage, and enterprise flows that can’t broadcast everything to the world.

#opbnb Becomes the Standard
BNB Chain’s ambition is blunt: build infrastructure that can serve 200M+ users with near-instant confirmations.
On the usage side, BNB Chain is already showing high activity, including ~2.68M active addresses (24h) and ~15.6M transactions (24h) in some snapshots. Usage has been ticking up steadily since inception.
And in 2025, Nansen-reported “sender-only” active addresses hit an all-time high of 3.46M, alongside a surge in monthly transactions.
As BNB Chain’s layer-2 optimistic rollup (built with the OP Stack), opBNB is designed to batch transactions off-chain and settle back to BSC. Put simply, this lets apps offer cheaper fees and higher throughput without sacrificing the base layer’s settlement guarantees.
In 2026, opBNB is set to become critical infrastructure for the consumer lane (games, socials, micro-transactions). The Volta upgrade already reduced block intervals to 500ms and aligned cadence with BSC’s faster block times, and the future roadmap has been explicit about further raising the block limit and improving latency.
The Fourier upgrade goes live in January 2026, cutting block time to 250ms.
Source: BNB Chain
In 2026, expect more apps to default to opBNB for “always-on” interactions, while settling high-value DeFi back to the main chain as needed.

#bnb to Reclaim $1,000
In 2025, BNB proved that it can trade well above four figures (it printed an all-time high of over $1,370 during a spike in on-chain activity).
As of the time of writing, BNB is trading at around $838. However, based on historical price action, it appears well-positioned to reclaim the $1,000 price point in 2026.
When projecting using recent calendar-year closes (a simplistic method, not a forecast), $1,000 is plausible — based purely on math, not magic.
2022 close: $246.302023 close: $311.802024 close: $702.30Current price (late Dec 2025): $838
Source: BNB Coin Page
Using the median of the last two full-year returns (and treating 2025 as partial), you land in the rough neighborhood of $1,070 by end-2026 from today’s $838 level.
This growth will likely be driven less by "vibes" and more by new rails for sustained spot demand, including a potential upcoming VanEck BNB spot ETF, accumulation by BNB digital asset treasury companies, and the auto-burn system.

Again, this is a mechanical extrapolation — BNB will ultimately follow liquidity, regulation, and whether the 2026 roadmap actually ships.

TLDR
Terra (LUNA) is a blockchain platform launched in 2022 as a reboot of the collapsed Terra Classic network, focusing on decentralized applications (dApps) and community governance without algorithmic stablecoins.
Rebuilt Blockchain – Emerged after Terra Classic’s 2022 collapse, abandoning its failed stablecoin model.
Community-Driven Ecosystem – Prioritizes dApp development and user experience, supported by its "LUNAtics" community.
Governance & Utility – LUNA tokens enable staking, network security, and decentralized decision-making.

Deep Dive
Purpose & Evolution
Terra originated in 2019 as a blockchain for algorithmic stablecoins like TerraClassicUSD (UST), which collapsed in May 2022.
The new Terra chain (Terra 2.0) was created to continue development without stablecoins, focusing on fostering dApps and rebuilding trust.

Technology & Architecture
The blockchain uses a Delegated Proof-of-Stake (DPoS) consensus mechanism, inherited from Terra Classic, to validate transactions efficiently.
Key upgrades include enhanced security protocols and interoperability features to attract developers.

Tokenomics & Governance
Supply: Fixed total supply of 1 billion LUNA, with ~710 million circulating.
Utility: LUNA is used for staking, paying transaction fees, and voting on governance proposals.
Airdrop: Original Terra Classic holders received LUNA 2.0 tokens in 2022 to incentivize migration.

Conclusion
Terra (LUNA) represents a community-driven reboot aiming to distance itself from its volatile past while leveraging its technical foundations.
Can it redefine its role in decentralized ecosystems without relying on stablecoins?
