Altcoins Are Coming To Wall Street Franklin Templeton is considering a big push into the altcoin market. This is the latest development for large financial institutions based on reporting from Yueqi Yang at The Information. This fund would be targeted at institutional capital with a focus on crypto exposure outside of bitcoin and ether. While that may sound like a high-risk strategy, it actually is a natural progression for an asset manager. Investors are looking for returns. They want to risk capital and watch their money grow into more money. This is the essence of investing. Capital allocators have a lot of options of where to put their money. Stocks. Bonds. Currencies. Real estate. Commodities. Crypto. The list goes on and on. But crypto appears to provide more risk than most asset classes, which in turn means that a higher potential return is present. You get paid for the risk you take. At least that is the way a market should work. Now here is the part that may seem counterintuitive — Wall Street loves risk. Many people believe the suits are risk-adverse. They aren’t smart. Wall Street doesn’t know what is going on. But that is wrong. Wall Street has created the greatest casino in history. Every day trillions of dollars are wagered in the market based on risk-reward. The more risk that is present, the more someone on Wall Street will seek out the opportunity. Just look at zero-day options. They now make up more than 50% of all option trading. Bet what you think will happen to the market by the end of the day. This is akin to gambling. This brings me to the altcoin market. Some of the assets will have long-term value. Many of them won’t. It doesn’t really matter though. Investors on Wall Street are no different than the crypto degens. They all want to find risk and volatility. The long-term value of an asset is much less important compared to the short-term opportunity. This approach violates everything you have learned about traditional investing principles. Yet this is the current state of financial markets. Wall Street investors are going to flock to the altcoin market the same way they have flocked to zero-day options. If an asset moves, Wall Street will be there. If an asset moves a lot, Wall Street will be there with size. Franklin Templeton understands this. They wouldn’t be contemplating this fund unless they felt there was significant demand for the strategy. Right now the fund would be a private fund. Eventually we will see public funds that give altcoin exposure inside the United States. You may not like it. You may disagree with the investment case for buying these assets. But the market is the referee and it is telling you that altcoins are coming to Wall Street.

JUST IN: Coinbase now allows AI agents to trade crypto autonomously.

The best way to build an L2 is to lean into the L1's offerings (security, censorship resistance, proofs, data avail...) more, and reduce your logic to just being a sequencer and a prover (if based, just a prover) over the core execution. This is the combination of trust minimization and efficiency that the 2010s enterprise blockchain crew wanted, but was never able to achieve. Now, with Ethereum L2s, you can achieve it. And we've already seen successful examples of the L1's features protecting users' rights if something on the L2 goes wrong.

Someone said to me yesterday that the era of easy money in crypto is over. If that's true (I don't know if it is), then there's a good chance that most of you are wasting your time here. The reason is that almost everyone you see today who has achieved some level of success started their journey during one of these easy-money cycles. Whether it was buying BTC in 2012, getting into DeFi early, trading NFTs in 2021, memecoins in 2024, or InfoFi in 2025, the pattern is the same. You can't go from zero to one without an easy-money cycle. So if you're at zero now, there is a chance that you will stay there

Deep in a game theory book and my brain won't stop mapping every concept to crypto markets. Is it even possible to read anything these days without seeing trading dynamics everywhere? 😅

Crypto never sleeps and neither does my portfolio anxiety 😅 Every dip feels scary but the fundamentals keep pulling me back in. Still bullish long term even when the charts hurt. #crypto Who else is holding through the chaos? 🔥

$BTC to $200,000. $ETH to $8,000. All of this will happen next bull market. Are you positioned?

ETH in 2021: $1,700 ETH in 2022: $1,700 ETH in 2023: $1,700 ETH in 2024: $1,700 ETH in 2025: $1,700 ETH in 2026: $1,700 ETH before BitMine buying: $1,700 ETH after BitMine buying: $1,700 ETH before ETF approval: $1,700 ETH after ETF approval: $1,700 ETH during anti-crypto President: $1,700 ETH during pro-crypto President: $1,700 ETH before US-Iran war: $1,700 ETH after US-Iran war: $1,700 Performance of $ETH is an absolute joke.
