"After a year of policy groundwork-from signing the GENIUS Act in July to appointing new SEC and CFTC leadership-the stage is set for 2026 to deliver the institutional wave that could drive Bitcoin ( ), Solana ( ), and XRP ( ) to substantial gains. That's the foundation the Trump administration is setting up ahead of the new year. Whether it translates to significant gains depends on execution-but here's how Bitcoin, XRP, and Solana could benefit if all goes to plan."
"The GENIUS Act creates a federal framework where banks can issue stablecoins under regulatory oversight. Clear rules mean banks can enter the market with confidence, potentially bringing trillions in banking capital into crypto rails. Clarity Act Senate Vote Expected Early 2026 Senate drafts from the Banking and Agriculture Committees propose expanding CFTC authority over digital assets while the SEC retains securities oversight."
Federal policy action in 2025 established regulatory frameworks and leadership changes that enable large-scale institutional entry into crypto in 2026. The GENIUS Act creates a federal framework allowing banks to issue stablecoins under regulatory oversight, enabling banks to route deposit and custody capital into crypto rails. Senate Clarity Act drafts propose expanded CFTC authority over digital assets while the SEC retains securities oversight, resolving jurisdictional uncertainty. New CFTC leadership and expanded authority pave the way for more derivatives and ETF-like institutional products. The SEC’s fast-track listing standards shorten ETF approval windows substantially. Institutional product development and bank participation could deliver significant capital inflows to Bitcoin, Solana, and XRP, contingent on execution.
