V God’s prophecy of the "Year of Surprise" now appears to be more than just a confident declaration; behind it, real capital is actively involved.

The driving forces come from three directions: first, the explosive growth of stablecoin market size, with industry insiders expecting it to surpass $500 billion by 2026. Second, the rise of tokenized real-world assets (RWA), which could reach a scale of $300 billion. Additionally, the large-scale entry of sovereign wealth funds means that these traditional financial giants holding Ethereum and related tokenized assets could see a 5 to 10 times increase.

More interestingly, on-chain AI agents and prediction markets are gradually becoming mainstream applications.

The most telling evidence comes from actual institutional actions. A single stake of 74,880 ETH, whale-level position adjustments—these all confirm one fact: large funds have already sensed the direction. Some are making big bets, others are fine-tuning their positions; behind every transaction is a genuine reflection of market expectations.

The correlation between BTC and ETH essentially reflects the collective pricing of the entire crypto ecosystem’s outlook for 2026.
