《Forbes》 2026 Outlook: Cryptocurrency and AI Will Remain Interconnected, Institutional Adoption Will Advance Steadily
BlockBeats News, January 2nd, Forbes released the 2026 Cryptocurrency Outlook, outlining three major crypto trends: "Cryptocurrency and AI trading will be mutually reinforcing," "Institutional adoption will continue to deepen," and "Market cooling will not hinder industry progress."
Forbes stated that artificial intelligence and crypto assets are increasingly competing in terms of power resources, investment funds, and market attention, predicting that the two will continue to maintain a linkage trend in areas such as trading sentiment, market reactions to interest rates and inflation news, and the ability to digest geopolitical shocks. Despite facing market volatility and regulatory disputes, institutional adoption of digital assets will continue to advance steadily. Large financial institutions are no longer satisfied with marginal attempts but are actively building infrastructure, recruiting professional talent, and integrating crypto asset exposure into a broader capital market strategy. Asset tokenization, custody solutions, and on-chain settlement are increasingly seen as efficiency-enhancing tools rather than speculative chips.
The cooling-off period of the cryptocurrency market, even if temporary, should not be misinterpreted as a halt in innovation or a regression in industry value. History has shown that the phase of fervor reduction often creates space for the maturity of infrastructure, governance models, and use cases. Developers, enterprises, and regulatory bodies continue to build during downturns, focusing on scalability, compliance, and real-world use cases. For investors and institutions, this phase marks a transition from speculation-driven to utility-driven value. The progress of stablecoins, asset tokenization, and enterprise blockchain adoption will continue to advance without being disrupted by short-term price fluctuations.
