On January 6, 2026, the crypto market is shifting from the "halving narrative" to one driven by clearer regulation and deeper institutional participation. BTC is consolidating its position as "digital gold" and institutional allocation, ETH is gradually becoming institutional-grade settlement and financial infrastructure thanks to its RWA tokenization and upgrade roadmap, and SOL is accelerating its penetration into the real economy in high-performance, payment, and RWA scenarios.
BiyaPay analysts point out that the core of future market trends will no longer be short-term speculation, but rather the combination of "compliant access + practical scenarios + capital attributes." The pace of regulation and changes in institutional allocation will be key variables.
