AI Summary

The crypto industry is navigating significant turbulence, with Bitcoin recently surpassing $95,000 as market sentiment shifts, driven by increases in institutional investor demand, blooming interest in Bitcoin ETFs, and a perceived easing of macroeconomic concerns related to tariffs.
The Federal Reserve's recent withdrawal of its previous guidance on crypto activities for banks has stirred mixed reactions; some industry participants see this as paving the way for greater banking engagement with cryptocurrencies, while prominent figures like Senator Cynthia Lummis express skepticism, citing the change as insufficient progress.
A new report from Deloitte predicts the tokenization of real estate could reach $4 trillion by 2035, highlighting a growing trend in leveraging blockchain for traditional asset ownership and investment opportunities.
Recent data indicates a concerning trend for the Trump-associated WLFI crypto project, which has seen a decline in investment performance amid broader market downturns despite controversy over potential conflicts of interest linked to its high-profile connections.
Significant activity is noted in the Dogecoin ecosystem, with mining-related strategies evolving as companies merge to centralize efforts, indicating a shift towards more institutional adoption even as newer regulations and sentiment fluctuations continue to reshape the landscape.
