Furthermore, the fact that Bitcoin has not yet dropped below the price reached in this cycle, and that whale activity remains weaker compared to past lows, suggests that the risk of a decline is not entirely off the table.

EigenLayer held $19.7 billion at its peak and liquid restaking tokens grew more than 1,000% in the first six weeks of 2024. But the services buying security never paid enough to cover both the base staking yield and a premium on top, so the second yield restaking promised never materialized.

“Throughout 2026, Binance has consistently captured the largest share of $USDC spot trading activity, processing $5 million-$10 billion in daily volume, roughly 10-20 times more than most other trading venues, which typically stay below $0.5 billion,” said Anastasia Melachrinos, head of research at Kaiko.
