BlockBeats News, December 27th, SharpLink Gaming Co-CEO Joseph Chalom tweeted that the surge in stablecoins, tokenized RWAs, and growing interest from sovereign wealth funds could drive a significant increase in Ethereum TVL by the end of 2026, with the stablecoin market size reaching $500 billion.Joseph Chalom stated that tokenized RWAs will reach $300 billion by 2026, with the managed scale of tokenized assets growing tenfold, expanding from tokenization of individual funds, stocks, and bonds to tokenization of entire fund portfolios. The amount of ETH held by sovereign wealth funds and the scale of tokenization will increase 5-10 times. Over the past year, growing interest from financial services companies including JPMorgan, Franklin Templeton, and BlackRock in Ethereum has been a major catalyst.Notably, SharpLink unstaked 35,627 ETH this morning, valued at $104.4 million.

BlockBeats News, December 27, According to CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost, Ethereum contract trading volume this year far exceeds previous years' levels. Taking Binance as an example, over the past year, Ethereum futures trading volume has exceeded $6.74 trillion, nearly double that of 2024, which itself had already set a historical record. Thus, it can be said that Ethereum is one of the assets with the highest trading volume in the global derivatives market in 2025, highlighting the strength of speculative demand.Over the past year, the spot-to-futures ratio has been approximately 0.2, meaning that for every $1 invested in buying ETH on Binance's spot market, nearly $5 is allocated to futures contracts. This ratio is characteristic of markets highly reliant on leverage, reflecting extreme speculation on Ethereum in 2025. Record trading volume combined with such an imbalanced ratio indicates that futures largely dictate Ethereum's price movements.Consequently, Ethereum's price volatility this year has often been amplified, disorderly, and highly dependent on liquidations, ultimately leading to it setting a new all-time high by only a few dollars.

BlockBeats news, December 27th: Yesterday was the annual major options expiration day, also the largest cryptocurrency options expiration day in history, with a cumulative notional value of approximately $280 billion. Although most analysts and historical data indicate that market volatility significantly amplifies after massive options expirations, possibly due to holiday effects, the market has yet to break free from the volatile 'painting the door' pattern.According to HTX market data, Bitcoin retreated from $89,000 last night, briefly fell below $87,000 before rebounding above $87,000 to consolidate sideways, currently quoted at $87,405.According to analyst Murphy, the $87,000 level is a short-term price point for substantial Bitcoin position turnover and is also currently the strongest support level in terms of position structure. As long as the massive volume bar maintains effective support, the direction will become clearer.
