‍Bitcoin's Evolution: From Digital Gold to Productive Capital Bitcoin is transitioning from a passive store of value to a foundational element of productive capital. The development of credible pathways for institutions to generate scalable yield from Bitcoin is the next crucial step, according to Function CEO Thomas Chen. Bitcoin is increasingly recognized as programmable collateral, enabling institutional participation in onchain finance. Market-neutral strategies have demonstrated resilience and potential for yield generation, even during market volatility. Institutions are now poised to activate their Bitcoin holdings through strategies like short-term lending and supplying liquidity on vetted platforms. This shift signifies Bitcoin's maturation into a yield-bearing infrastructure, with a growing demand for compliant onchain yield solutions expected among institutional investors.

‍Zohran Mamdani Wins NYC Mayoral Race, Digital Asset Future Uncertain Zohran Mamdani's victory in the NYC mayoral elections has left the cryptocurrency industry closely monitoring potential implications for the blockchain space. Unlike opponents, Mamdani has largely avoided specific pro-crypto stances, focusing instead on consumer protection. This ambiguity has drawn criticism from web3 figures like Tyler Winklevoss and David Sacks. However, a NYC mayor's direct influence on crypto regulations is limited, with state and federal laws holding primary authority. While Mamdani's administration may impact areas like municipal taxes, the operational agility of crypto firms and existing state regulations like the BitLicense reduce direct city-level pressure. The industry awaits concrete policy developments following his January 1, 2026 inauguration.
