advancing 9.49% to $3,054 ahead of its Fusaka upgrade activation later today. Institutional participation is growing through Vanguard’s new ETF access, drawing fresh capital into the sector. Meanwhile, investors are actively searching for the next crypto to explode as major assets recover and network improvements enhance scalability.

Bitcoin’s climb above $92,000 continues the rebound from November’s $18,000+ drop tied to ETF outflows. The primary catalyst today is Vanguard’s policy change, effective December 2, allowing over 50 million clients to trade spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs plus crypto mutual funds. This sparked $1.8 billion in volume for BlackRock’s IBIT shortly after, boosting inflows.
The Federal Reserve’s quantitative tightening halt adds liquidity support for assets like BTC, where short positions are declining and a push past $93,000 could trigger further buying. Year-end targets now include $100,000, aligned with December’s historical 9.7% average gains.

Next Crypto to Explode: Market Rotation Builds Ahead of Ethereum’s Fusaka Upgrade
Ethereum’s momentum ties directly to the Fusaka upgrade, activating at slot 13,164,544 around 21:49 UTC today, Ethereum’s second hard fork of 2025. Fusaka combines execution layer (Fulu) and consensus layer (Osaka) enhancements, featuring PeerDAS for 85% reduced data load on validators, consistent gas limit increases from 45M to higher thresholds, and blob throughput scaling from 6 to 14 per block via post-upgrade BPO forks starting December 9.
These changes cut Layer-2 fees by 40-60% for networks like Arbitrum and Optimism, while boosting overall throughput and efficiency. Corporate buys, including BitMine Immersion’s $70 million ETH purchase at $3,008 average, underscore confidence in post-Fusaka growth.

With Vanguard inflows, Fusaka optimizations, and seasonal tailwinds, the setup favors extended upside. As Bitcoin holds $90,000+, altcoin rotations could amplify returns, positioning the market for 2026 expansion.
Bitcoin Price Back Above $91K Lagging Stock and Bond Recovery: Did Vanguard Save BTC Price? Time To Go Parabolic After FOMC?
The Bitcoin price bears are multiplying. Bitcoin’s sharp November reset triggered something traders haven’t seen since early 2023: BTC USD briefly dipped below its Metcalfe network value. This level has historically marked late-stage washouts rather than fresh downtrends.
Here’s the bad news:
- No public hype outside a few desperate 40YO boomers
- NFT’s 100% dead
- SOL coins got about a month of activity after Trump won, but now they’re dead

- Alts got nothing
- Ethereum holders BTFOed as always
The good news is that people like Network economist Timothy Peterson say Bitcoin’s recent price action appears only after leverage has been flushed out and speculative excess has burned off.
“While this does not necessarily signal a bottom, it does indicate that most leverage has been removed and the bubble has deflated.” – Timothy Peterson, Cane Island
Here’s what’s next for the Bitcoin price and an all-new Bitcoin-based presale that is gaining hype:

ETH USD Reclaims $3,000 Ahead of Fusaka Mainnet Launch: Next Stop $3,200?
I was discussing an Ethereum price prediction here in Japan, and someone curtly said, “Yeah, also invest in some horse manure while you are at it.”
How rude! But it was nice to know I understood what they said in Japanese. Meanwhile, Ethereum’s Fusaka upgrade went live on December 3, delivering the most meaningful throughput expansion since EIP-4844.
Unfortunately, I don’t know how to say that in Japanese…
Tomorrow: Fusaka
Ethereum’s second major upgrade this year.
→ Feature highlight: PeerDAS – Unlocking up to 8x data throughput. For rollups, this means cheaper blob fees and more space to grow.

The update is setting the stage for cheaper rollup fees heading into 2026. The fork introduces PeerDAS, doubles block gas capacity, and establishes the technical foundation for two blob-parameter expansions arriving later this month and in January.
“While not an official translation, ‘sloping side road’ reflects the playful fusion of Fulu and Osaka.” – Ethereum Editor’s Note
By allowing validators to verify blob data through sampling instead of downloading full payloads, Ethereum can begin scaling blob throughput by roughly an order of magnitude. Here’s what you need to know for the Ethereum price:

MicroStrategy Faces Possible MSCI Index Removal as Saylor Warns of Pressure
MicroStrategy Chairman Michael Saylor confirmed the company is in discussions with index provider MSCI about a potential removal from its benchmarks, according to Reuters. MSCI is expected to issue its decision on January 15. JPMorgan recently estimated that an exclusion, especially if mirrored by other index providers, could spark as much as $8.8 billion in outflows. Saylor noted that Bitcoin’s latest pullback has weighed heavily on MicroStrategy’s share price, calling the stock a “leveraged” reflection of Bitcoin’s performance.
Aave Brings Out the Knives For Low-Value Chains: Are zkSync Crypto, METIS Price and Sony’s Soneium Really Cooked?
The crypto conversation around Aave chain crosshair on zkSync, Metis, and Solenium has taken a sharp turn this week. What was once just another governance check suddenly turns into a line in the sand as Aave chain decided that it is no longer interested in spreading itself thin across networks. Especially those that aren’t pulling their weight.
Following the decision, zkSync, Metis, and Solenium fall well below the proposed threshold of $2 million in annual revenue needed for continued crypto support.
Numbers from recent reports show zkSync is at around $20,000 annualized revenue, Metis barely cracking $3,000, and Solenium around $52,000, microscopic when held up against Ethereum’s $142 million in its crypto revenue. It’s obvious why people inside the Aave chain ecosystem are calling these deployments “dead weight.”
