What should Trump change the name of “Venezuela” to now that… I guess we own them? Strange times. Even Stranger is when did you finally accept that crypto is officially dead? Crypto regulation news killed it.
No more hype, no more JPEG monkeys, no more pumps, no more dumps, no more nothing except eternal bears and crab.
Open criminals have completely captured the market and crypto is effectively dead, both as a financial instrument and an ideal.

Now, obviously, if you’re a long-time fan of 99Bitcoins, you know I’m being a bit facetious. Crypto isn’t totally dead, but the rules have changed for 2026.
How Did Crypto Regulation News Kill Web3? (To Whom It May Concern)
Greetings, “99Bitcoins”. Cryptocurrency is doing TREMENDOUSLY well, folks — absolutely the safest in the world. Some say it becomes EVEN SAFER when you say “THANK YOU,” in the comments, which, by the way, many people are saying to me already. Incredible results. Nobody protects crypto like I do!
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
The jury isn’t out for Trump, but as of 2025, Donald Judas Trump was an enemy of the crypto industry:

Thankyou Mr. President.

The Trump meme coin is the clearest example of abusing the trust of your voters.
Launched days before the inauguration, the official Trump coin spiked to $45.57 and a $9 billion valuation as insiders held roughly 80% of the supply. Today it trades near $5.50, down about 88%.
Now Trump and Melania are being sued for orchestrating pump-and-dumps.
Another facet of the lawsuit is against World Liberty Financial, the Trump-family DeFi project. The report claims WLFI’s token surged in near-lockstep with federal rollbacks, including lighter SEC oversight, the sudden dismantling of the DOJ’s NCET unit, and a clear shift in crypto enforcement.
As we said, Trump can turn things around by pushing for the Clarity Act and easing off the strange crypto projects. But for now, he has a lot of work to do.

One Mistake Not To Make in 2026
Five years into crypto only one thing is true: those who bought solid, boring coins and held are now rich or at least very well off.
Those who chased leverage and altcoin 100xs are dead. Especially those who used leverage. I’m pushing 30 and only now came to this realization.
I’m committed to buying and holding crypto for the foreseeable future and never touching leverage or even trading again.

The only time I feel stressed are when I’m in dangerous parts of the Middle East or when I look at my crypto portfolio. That shouldn’t be a thing.
Grassroots mass adoption for crypto hasn’t happened, but crypto is about to get mass adopted by the banks and institutions.
HUGE: SEC Chair Paul Atkins just dropped a bombshell: the entire US market will transition to on-chain settlement within two years. This isn’t a pilot anymore. The government is officially pivoting to stablecoins to protect the Dollar’s global dominance. pic.twitter.com/nL4oaC7zYq

According to the banks themselves, they’re waiting for more legal clarity, which means they’re waiting for the Clarity Act, which is expected to be signed into law in 2026.
But for now, the majority of crypto is risky and you need to pick your battles in 2026.
We are in 1995-1998 age of the internet in crypto. We had thousands of websites back then, and this is before .com crash, and before 4-5 large billion-dollar companies appeared and took the majority of the market.
Google, Facebook, Microsoft, Amazon, Netflix. Look for those.
