The crypto industry over the past 48 hours has shown signs of consolidation after a strong rebound earlier in the week. Bitcoin has been trading sideways between 91,700 and 94,100 dollars, failing to break through the 94,000 resistance level. This comes as market sentiment remains in the Fear zone, with the Crypto Fear and Greed Index at 26, down from 28 just a day ago. Ethereum has also stabilized, moving back above 3,050 dollars, while altcoins like SUI and LINK saw notable gains of 31 and 24 percent respectively, led by the recent Ethereum Fusaka upgrade.
Institutional demand continues to be a key driver. In 2025 alone, global Bitcoin exchange traded products and major corporations have acquired over 944,000 BTC, surpassing last year's totals. Big players like BlackRock, Goldman Sachs, and Mubadala Fund have increased their positions, helping to limit downside risk. Bank of America has also recommended clients allocate up to 4 percent of their portfolios to crypto, reflecting a growing institutional embrace.
Regulatory developments remain active. The SEC Investor Advisory Committee held a meeting to discuss corporate governance and tokenization of securities. The UK has passed legislation recognizing cryptocurrencies and stablecoins as legally protected personal property. Meanwhile, Connecticut ordered Kalshi, Robinhood, and Crypto.com to halt sports betting operations, and the SEC has paused approval of high leverage ETFs due to risk concerns.
Consumer behavior is shifting, with nearly half of US shoppers using AI for shopping tasks and over one in four excited to receive crypto as a gift, especially among Gen Z. Visa reports that 47 percent of Americans have used AI for shopping, and 28 percent would be excited to receive cryptocurrency as a gift, rising to 45 percent for Gen Z.
Overall, the market is balancing between regulatory scrutiny, institutional accumulation, and evolving consumer adoption, setting the stage for continued volatility and innovation in the weeks ahead.
