The crypto market is experiencing a turning point. Over the past year, we've watched regulatory barriers gradually ease, while major institutions have stepped in with serious capital commitments. This isn't just another hype cycle—it's different this time. Bitcoin, Ethereum, and other digital assets are no longer fringe bets. They're becoming integrated into mainstream financial infrastructure. Banks are offering custody solutions, traditional investors are allocating portions of their portfolios, and the regulatory framework is maturing rather than tightening. What started as a niche experiment is now finding its place within the broader financial system.

To be honest, I've heard this rhetoric too many times. Every time they say "this time is different," but what happens? The crypto world is just like that, one cycle after another. But on the other hand, institutional entry has indeed changed the game rules, at least in terms of liquidity and compliance, it seems to be serious.

Bro, this time it's really different. Institutions are really pouring money in.

This time really is different. When institutions seriously start investing money, it's time to move.

Banks are starting to offer custody services... I have a feeling this is just the eve of institutions taking advantage of retail investors.

To be honest, this sounds like they're saying "this time is different" again. Last time I heard this, it was said the same way... But I do admit that the institutional framework is indeed changing.
