Cryptocurrency analytics company Messari shared its predictions for the sector in 2026 in its new report. The report argues that 2025 will be an extremely polarizing year for the crypto industry, with the market offering completely different experiences for different actors. According to Messari, 2025 will be one of the strongest years in crypto history for Wall Street-based institutional investors, while it will stand out as a challenging period that falls short of expectations for individual investors and community-focused participants. The report states that Bitcoin has clearly diverged from all other crypto assets and solidified its position as the leading cryptocurrency. The relatively weak performance seen in the second half of 2025 was largely attributed to selling pressure from older, high-cap wallets. Messari predicts that this does not constitute a permanent or structural problem, and that Bitcoin’s monetary narrative will remain intact in the long term.

Pointing to significant year-on-year declines in L1 revenues, Messari stated that current valuations are increasingly based on expectations of a “monetary premium.” With a few exceptions, L1 projects are expected to underperform Bitcoin in the coming period. Ethereum remains one of the most debated assets in the sector. While questions about its value accumulation haven’t completely disappeared, it’s argued that the market will begin pricing ETH as a “cryptocurrency” similar to Bitcoin in the second half of 2025. Messari predicts that if a new bull market emerges in 2026, Ethereum-focused digital treasures (DATs) could experience a “second life.” According to Messari, Zcash (ZEC) is no longer just a niche privacy coin; it’s now being priced as a private cryptocurrency. In the context of increasing surveillance, corporate control, and financial pressure, ZEC is positioned as a complementary hedge against Bitcoin. *This is not investment advice.

The NEAR token is now available for trading on Solana, powered by NEAR Intents and Orb Markets. This integration comes one day after Solana’s “Attention is All You Need” post that went viral, featuring Jensen Huang and Illia Polosukhin. On December 18, Solana’s official account on X announced NEAR going live on its network. NEAR Protocol’s official account quoted the announcement, mentioning this integration is powered by NEAR Intents and Orb Markets. NEAR Intents is a cross-chain protocol that achieved significant volume and revenue growth in 2025, while Orb Markets is an innovative Solana explorer built by Helius Labs. --> $NEAR, now on @Solana.

NEAR token address visualization, as of December 18, 2025 | Source: Orbs Market Solana and NEAR Collaboration: Attention Is All You Need Everything started gaining traction on December 16, when Mert posted that “NEAR is a top 2-3 underrated team in crypto,” comparing its technical talent to Solana, in particular tracing a parallel between Illia Polosukhin, NEAR co-founder, and Anatoly Yakovenko, Solana co-founder. NEAR seems to me a top 2-3 underrated team in crypto it's the only technical team as talented as Solana with the results to show for it, v smart devs it is also still founder-led with Illia (the guy who helped invent LLMs) if their GTM gets fixed, no reason why it's not top 10 — mert | helius.dev (@0xMert_) December 16, 2025 Other prominent figures connected to Solana joined Mert. For example, Double Zero’s co-founder and former Strategy lead at Solana, Austin Federa, praised both NEAR Intents and NEAR’s AI products, also bringing Illia’s name to the table. Near has consistently reinvented their product in source of PMF with a discipline not often found in crypto. Intents are cool. It’s made possible by an awesome mpc network under the hood. Their AI work is the only AI x Crypto thing I’m looking forwards to. Nice job… https://t.co/MMZ6RCneJV — Austin Federa | 🇺🇸 (@Austin_Federa) December 16, 2025 On December 17, Alex Svanevik, CEO of NansenAI, said he “just bought some NEAR,” adding that he “can’t take missing out on another ZEC,” in reference to Mert’s role in pushing Zcash’s privacy and ZEC price through continuous support and active posting on X, as Coinspeaker reported before its remarkable rally. just bought some near I can’t take missing out on another zec https://t.co/48ixDFJVq7 — Alex Svanevik 🐧 (@ASvanevik) December 17, 2025 Then, Solana’s official account posted a photo of Jensen Huang, Nvidia’s CEO, touching Illia’s arm in a conference panel, with the caption “Attention is All You Need.” Illia is the co-author of Attention is All You Need, the revolutionary 2017 Google paper that introduced the transformer architecture, the core tech behind the AI boom—called the “T” in “ChatGPT.” This post got a response from Polosukhin, sharing an old picture of him listening to Yakovenko’s explanation in front of a whiteboard, suggesting the two founders and projects have maintained a good relationship for years.

$ZEC is printing a clear double-bottom structure on the 1Hr chart. Both Bottom-1 and Bottom-2 defended the 371–375 zone, showing buyers are stepping in aggressively at lows. Price is now reclaiming the 400 region, which acts as a short-term decision zone. 🔹Strong demand seen near 370–375 🔹Higher low formed → momentum slowly shifting 🔹400–410 is the supply ceiling holding price back 📈 If 410 breaks & holds: Next expansion toward 430 → 450 becomes very realistic. 📉 If rejection happens: Expect a pullback toward 385–380, but structure remains valid as long as 370 holds. This is not breakout yet — but accumulation is visible.

$ZEC TARGETING THE 412–415 ZONE AFTER HOLDING ABOVE 395 SUPPORT💥🔥 $ZEC is currently consolidating around the 399–400 area after a strong impulsive move from the lower 370s, showing clear signs of strength and acceptance above a key intraday support. Price action is forming a tight range just below resistance, indicating that buyers are still active and absorbing selling pressure. As long as ZEC holds above the 392–390 region, the structure remains bullish, and a continuation toward the 409–412 resistance zone is very much in play. A clean breakout and hold above this area can open the path for an extension toward the higher 415+ levels. On the other hand, if ZEC fails to break above the 409–412 supply zone and starts showing rejection, a short-term pullback could unfold. Loss of the 395–392 support would weaken the bullish structure and may push price back toward the 385–380 demand zone, where buyers are expected to step in again. Shorts are only favorable on a clear rejection from resistance with confirmation, while aggressive selling below support could accelerate downside momentum toward the lower range. Bias remains cautiously bullish above 392, but rejection near 412 can trigger a healthy pullback before the next move.
