The three major U.S. stock indices weakened collectively this week: The Nasdaq fell 0.66% for the week, while crypto stocks rose broadly along with BTC.
Market performance: On Friday, January 16, 2026, U.S. stocks closed slightly lower. This week, due to PPI data exceeding expectations and signals of 'cautious rate cuts' from Federal Reserve officials, market sentiment leaned towards conservatism, with the Dow, S&P, and Nasdaq all recording weekly declines.
Independent performance in the crypto sector: Despite the pressure on the overall market, crypto concept stocks performed brilliantly, mainly benefiting from Bitcoin stabilizing above $95,000$ and subtle changes in regulatory aspects.
Figure (FIGR) surged 13.78%: It became the leader in the sector. The main driver was its recent breakthrough in the RWA (Real World Asset) tokenization field, with its loan issuance on the Solana chain hitting a new high and rumors circulating that it will be included in a certain innovative index on Nasdaq.
Gemini (GEMI) rose 4.59%: With the Winklevoss brothers' exchange officially obtaining operating licenses for prediction markets in multiple states in the U.S., the market is optimistic about its business growth prospects for 2026.
Strategy (MSTR) rose 1.64%: After BTC stabilized following a pullback, it attracted capital flows again. Although the 'premium rate' of MSTR shrank somewhat this week, institutional holding confidence remains solid.
Individual stock movements: SharpLink Gaming (SBET) surged 5.36%, benefiting from positive news about the integration of sports betting and crypto payments; while Kindly MD (NAKA) fell 5.56%, indicating that funds are flowing from small-cap medical/crypto crossover sectors to pure blockchain infrastructure stocks.

🚀 Bernstein: Figure (FIGR) is the top investment pick for 2026! 💎
Wall Street analysts are heavily betting on the blockchain lending sector. Top brokerage firm Bernstein has officially designated Figure Technology (FIGR) as the best investment opportunity for 2026.
Why is Figure gaining attention?
Beyond offering loans, the company is dedicated to migrating traditional, outdated banking infrastructure onto the blockchain. Amid tightening crypto regulations and instability in traditional banking, Figure's solutions are seen as the core engine driving industry transformation.
Key report data:
📈 Target price: Upgraded by 33%, from $54 to $72 (rating: 'Outperform').
💰 Revenue forecast: Expected net revenue to surge to $945 million by 2027 (nearly double the 2025 projection).
🚀 Market performance: Since its IPO at $25 in September 2025, the stock has reached a peak of $59.
Growth drivers:
Business expansion: Figure is expanding beyond its core real estate mortgage loans into additional loan categories.
RWA (Real World Assets): Leading position in the tokenized asset market.
Compliance advantage: The company's model aligns with the latest regulatory frameworks, making it highly attractive to institutional investors.
Currently, Piper Sandler ($75) and Bernstein ($72) are competing in their bullish estimates. As the market digests the positive developments, FIGR is solidifying its role as the strongest bridge between TradFi (Traditional Finance) and DeFi (Decentralized Finance).

Interest rate cuts confirmed, Bitcoin remains strong, limited opportunities for altcoins???
In the second half of the year, the Federal Reserve's interest rate cuts are basically a certainty; it's just a matter of how many times. Hong Kong stocks may have peaked in the short term, while U.S. stocks may have bottomed out in the short term. Smart money will choose a new direction, and those who understand will know.
Despite the spread of global panic, Bitcoin remains stable, proving its resilience. BTC will oscillate upwards amidst bearish sentiment until the final surge. Altcoins will only have speculative space when BTC is in an upward trend.
Those currently cutting losses and being bearish on BTC are destined to miss out. The market plummeted yesterday, and some hot coins failed to seize the opportunity in time. The same-name coin on the BSC chain is also struggling to benefit from the SOL chain. Currently, #Figure on the SOL chain has reached 4 million, while the BSC chain is still in the internal market, trying to gain a market cap of hundreds of thousands, with entrants accepting positions that could go to zero.

12 Million SOL Set to Be Unlocked: What Will the Market Do?
In the upcoming months of March and April, 12 million SOL will be unlocked, raising concerns about selling pressure in the market. Notably, this large amount of SOL is related to FTX, the exchange that has gone bankrupt and is in the process of repaying users.
Origin of 12 Million SOL from FTX
Back in 2020, when FTX was one of the leading exchanges, they purchased 58 million SOL from Solana Labs and the Solana Foundation with various unlock schedules. After declaring bankruptcy, FTX had to liquidate assets to pay off debts, leading to a large auction of $SOL to various institutions:

Figure causes a stir on Nasdaq: Stock rises 24%, driving the tokenization story
Shares of Figure Technologies – a blockchain-based lending company – have risen 24% compared to the price #IPO , closing at $31.11, bringing the valuation to $6.58 billion. In the first trading session, the price reached as high as $36, reflecting strong interest from Wall Street in crypto-native businesses.
CEO Michael Tannenbaum emphasized #Figure is proving that blockchain can shorten the mortgage lending process from over 1 month to just a few days, while reducing costs from $12,000 to $1,000. The platform currently has $11.7 billion in outstanding loans, becoming the largest on-chain private credit market.
According to Hashdex experts, the IPO of Figure helps promote the story of tokenizing real assets in the traditional investment community. Juan Leon from Bitwise also noted that Figure's success shows that investors are seeking "real value rather than just speculation" as blockchain is applied directly to finance.
Notably, Figure is the 9th crypto company to list in the U.S. this year, following the IPO wave of Circle and soon the Gemini exchange. This reaffirms the increasingly close ties between Wall Street and crypto.

RWA Is A Lie Except For One Project
We talk endlessly about Real World Assets (RWA) as the next major crypto cycle driver. But if you look past the hype cycle, the sector is structurally weak. Most platforms are still running tiny pilots, chasing niche demand, or building theoretical infrastructure. This is not adoption. Real adoption requires scale. And right now, only one platform is showing it. Figure HELOC (Home Equity Line of Credit) has quietly scaled to nearly $15 billion. That number dwarfs the cumulative total of almost every other private credit RWA platform combined. This isn't just a win for Figure; it’s a critical lesson for the entire industry. Institutional RWA adoption is not coming from small, experimental tokenized pools. It is coming from platforms that can tap into massive, pre-existing, scalable fiat markets. For the RWA thesis to truly impact $ETH and the wider DeFi landscape, the volume needs to be institutional grade. Right now, Figure is the only one delivering on the promise, proving that the money is in scalable debt financing, not esoteric test cases. $MKR needs volumes like this.
This is not financial advice.

#Bernstein strongly supports #Figure as the "pioneer of blockchain credit", optimistic that its performance will surpass the market #十月加密行情
Investment bank Bernstein has initiated coverage of blockchain financial company Figure (stock code: FIGR), directly giving it a "outperform the market" rating with a target price set at $54. The report points out that the core reason for optimism is that Figure has become the leader in the blockchain credit market.
Currently, the global tokenized private credit market is approximately $17 billion, with Figure alone occupying 75% of the share, showing a clear advantage. The company is shifting its business to a light capital model to reduce risk. Bernstein predicts that Figure's loan issuance will reach $5.1 billion in 2024, and revenue will grow from $341 million this year to $754 million by 2027, with growth mainly driven by its successful expansion from home equity credit to other areas.
As a result of this rating, Figure's stock price increased by about 2% on that day, reaching $41.10. The company went public last month at a price of $25 per share, with a current valuation of approximately $787.5 million.
