In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, Bitwise Head of Research Ryan Rasmussen breaks down why crypto markets feel weak despite historic progress in regulation, ETFs, and institutional access. He highlights a major disconnect between price action and fundamentals, pointing to record ETF inflows—especially into Solana—as evidence of long-term conviction. Ryan makes a strong case for crypto indexing, arguing that broad exposure consistently outperforms asset picking for both advisors and retail investors. Looking ahead to 2026, he outlines a bullish outlook driven by regulatory clarity, tokenization, DeFi’s resurgence, and growing adoption across both crypto assets and equities.

In this episode of the Crypto 101 Podcast, CoinShares CEO Jean-Marie Mognetti joins Bryce to unpack how institutional adoption of crypto is unfolding in real time. He explains why Bitcoin ETFs, Ethereum exposure, and digital asset treasury companies are driving growth—but also creating short-term technical pressure through trade unwinds. Mognetti emphasizes that institutions are still in the earliest learning phase, while retail has led adoption, flipping the traditional investment pyramid. He closes by stressing long-term conviction, disciplined portfolio construction, and the importance of not confusing temporary market mechanics with Bitcoin’s broader macro trajectory.
