Ansem: During a bull market, strong altcoins will continuously emerge, and one should keep looking for opportunities for excess returns

Cryptocurrency trader Ansem posted that frequently monitoring the market and judging price trends based on 15-minute candlesticks can easily lead to overtrading. Investors should manage their spot, perpetual contract, and high-risk on-chain trading accounts separately, and should not attempt to catch every local top and bottom, as this may harm long-term investment returns. Instead of frequent trading, it is better to study historical bull markets and observe how long upward trends typically last.The upward cycles of altcoins are usually faster, often outperforming the market for 4 to 6 months, after which new market leaders emerge, especially after a market capitalization growth of more than 10 times. However, there may be a few exceptions in this cycle: some altcoins may see significant revenue growth alongside price increases, thus their fundamentals may improve simultaneously.In past cycles, altcoins primarily peaked due to shifts in market attention and weakening momentum, but in this cycle, if some projects experience substantial changes in revenue and other data, institutional funds may continue to buy actively, and investors need to adjust their original judgments in a timely manner based on new information.In the last cycle, Bitcoin bottomed out in January 2023 and peaked in October 2025, with an upward trend lasting about 33 months. If this cycle bottomed out in July, it is currently only in the 4th month.It is believed that in a longer-term bull market, multiple "mini-bulls" led by specific altcoins will emerge, and investors need to identify these phase-strong assets and continuously reinvest profits into high-performing targets, allowing short-term winners to gradually transform into long-term investments.

According to CoinDesk, Iana Dimitrova, CEO of the London-based payment infrastructure company OpenPayd, told CoinDesk that the company expects to complete its merger with Titan Acquisition Corp. and go public on Nasdaq by the end of this year.

Going public will provide funding and publicly traded stock that can be used for transactions and collaborations. The company is also considering conducting a private placement before the merger to raise growth capital.

first_img U.S. SEC Chairman: Plans to Establish a Framework for Cryptocurrency Asset Custody

The Chairman of the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC), Paul Atkins, issued a statement saying that the Commission proposed a plan this week to fill the regulatory gap regarding the custody of cryptocurrency assets by investment advisors and funds, providing a clear custody framework and compliance path for an asset class with increasing client demand.Atkins stated that the existing custody rules under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940 and the Investment Company Act of 1940 were established before the advent of the internet, primarily targeting traditional assets and requiring the use of approved custodians. The custody capabilities for new cryptocurrency assets often lag behind the launch of the assets by several months. This proposal aims to address this issue while updating the custody rules for advisors and regulated funds that have not been revised for decades to align with current industry practices and feedback.The statement noted that this proposal is part of the SEC's regulatory framework for cryptocurrency assets. Related efforts include stopping the replacement of regulation with enforcement, issuing a no-action letter regarding the pilot program for the tokenization of securities by custodial trust companies by December 2025, publishing a classification description for tokenized securities in January 2026, and subsequent initiatives regarding the securities attributes of cryptocurrency assets, broker registration, Regulation Crypto Assets, and innovative exemptions for trading tokenized NMS stocks. Atkins indicated that more regulatory proposals will be forthcoming.
