In 2025, Bitcoin is expected to gain institutional recognition as a strategic reserve asset, with altcoins poised for significant growth.

Wall Street is experiencing one of its priciest stock markets in history, with the S&P 500's Shiller P/E ratio nearing 39, significantly above the historical average of 17.19. This elevated valuation raises concerns about potential volatility and declines in 2025, prompting a strategy of holding 15% to 30% of portfolios in cash to capitalize on future buying opportunities. Historical trends indicate that when the Shiller P/E exceeds 30, significant market corrections often follow.

The report highlights the ineffectiveness of FINMA's interventions and raises concerns about the regulatory capture of financial authorities.
Shiba Inu (SHIB) has partnered with Chainlink to enhance Shibarium's operations through the adoption of the CCT standard, aiming to improve efficiency and security in DeFi.

While the market shows signs of potential re-accumulation, bearish momentum persists, indicating further downside could be possible.
