The last day of 2025, the crypto market proved its weight with a total market capitalization of $2.99 trillion.

Within this figure, Bitcoin maintains a dominant 59.1% share. Even though the academic community generally believes that the true threat of quantum computing is still 50 years away, market volatility continues to fluctuate amid the leverage games of major players. Technological advancements and risk management are always two critical factors investors must weigh.

More interesting is the subtle shift in power structures. Vitalik mentioned in his year-end post that decentralized reconstruction is no longer just idealistic talk but is actually happening each time against corporate monopolies. When a few institutional forces attempt to control market discourse, the emergence of foundational infrastructures like Ethereum and Bitcoin provides ordinary participants with tools to counteract.

From this perspective, projects with strong community consensus—regardless of size—are contributing to the diversification of the digital economy. Here, people are not just trading assets but participating in a redistribution of power. Every choice to engage with a protocol is a vote supporting a different future. This diffusion of influence is rewriting the rules of the financial world.

Wow, 2.99 trillion yuan. Bitcoin's 59% market share is really solid. Bitcoin still needs to protect this market. Big players keep leveraging up and down, and we're just here watching the show. Reconstructing power sounds great, but can it really fight against monopolies? I think it still depends on whether the community can truly unite. Voting for the future? Ha, in the end, it's just more followers.

59.1% is so heavily suppressed... The space for big players' sandwich attacks has shrunk again, and it seems that the arbitrage opportunities in the mempool this year are indeed not as lucrative as last year.

Bitcoin's 59.1% dominance is really stable, but who will regulate the leverage games of big players? --- 2.99 trillion yuan, the number is quite impressive, but the question is how much we can actually share. --- Decentralization has been talked about for many years, but how many have actually been implemented? --- Quantum computing is a matter for 50 years from now; for now, focus on the current coin prices. --- Reallocation of power? I think it's more like power concentrating into the hands of new big players. --- Basically, it's the same old story with a different name; institutions continue to cut profits. --- Community consensus sounds good, but ultimately, it's still the wealthy who have the final say. --- Voting for the future... let's first vote to support ourselves without losing money.

Damn, the number 2.99 trillion sounds great, but then I look at my own wallet... Big players are having fun with leverage, while retail investors are still getting drained by MEV? Reallocation of power? Haha, honestly I've heard that line too many times.
