On the long-term front, institutional adoption is showing positive signs with HSBC's blockchain use and increased interest from major companies like Walmart in blockchain technology. However, regulatory crackdowns are a significant short-term concern, with US and Canadian regulators planning a sweep of crypto investment schemes, and a prominent ETF provider liquidating Bitcoin holdings due to regulatory and tax issues. On the positive side, the launch of Ether futures and continued high demand for crypto developers suggest underlying strength and innovation.
