PANews reported on December 21st that Jocy, founding partner of IOSG, posted on the X platform that 2025 will be the "worst year" for the crypto market. OG investors will experience three waves of selling, from March 2024 to November 2025, with long-term holders (LTH) collectively selling approximately 1.4 million BTC (worth $121.17 billion): The first wave (late 2023 - early 2024): ETF approval, BTC price rose from $25,000 to $73,000; the second wave (late 2024): Trump's election, BTC surged towards $100,000; the third wave (2025): BTC will remain above $100,000 for an extended period. Unlike the single, explosive distributions of 2013, 2017, and 2021, this will be a multi-wave, sustained distribution. BTC has been consolidating at its high point for the past year, a situation never seen before, with 1.6 million BTC (approximately $140 billion) remaining unmoved for over two years decreasing since early 2024. But risk also presents opportunity, from an investment perspective:

Short term (3-6 months): Expected to fluctuate within the $87,000-$95,000 range, with institutions continuing to build positions;

Mid-term (first half of 2026): Driven by both policy and institutional factors, with a target of $120,000-$150,000;

Long term (second half of 2026): Increased volatility, depending on election results and policy continuity.

Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council

The post Best Crypto to Buy as Saylor & Crypto Execs Meet in US Treasury Council appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Michael Saylor and a group of crypto executives met in Washington, D.C. yesterday to push for the Strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill (the BITCOIN Act), which would see the U.S. acquire up to 1M $BTC over five years. With Bitcoin being positioned yet again as a cornerstone of national monetary policy, many investors are turning their eyes to projects that lean into this narrative – altcoins, meme coins, and presales that could ride on the same wave. Read on for three of the best crypto projects that seem especially well‐suited to benefit from this macro shift:  Bitcoin Hyper, Best Wallet Token, and Remittix. These projects stand out for having a strong use case and high adoption potential, especially given the push for a U.S. Bitcoin reserve.   Why the Bitcoin Reserve Bill Matters for Crypto Markets The strategic Bitcoin Reserve Bill could mark a turning point for the U.S. approach to digital assets. The proposal would see America build a long-term Bitcoin reserve by acquiring up to one million $BTC over five years. To make this happen, lawmakers are exploring creative funding methods such as revaluing old gold certificates. The plan also leans on confiscated Bitcoin already held by the government, worth an estimated $15–20B. This isn’t just a headline for policy wonks. It signals that Bitcoin is moving from the margins into the core of financial strategy. Industry figures like Michael Saylor, Senator Cynthia Lummis, and Marathon Digital’s Fred Thiel are all backing the bill. They see Bitcoin not just as an investment, but as a hedge against systemic risks. For the wider crypto market, this opens the door for projects tied to Bitcoin and the infrastructure that supports it. 1.
