    The Top 10 Shakeup: Winners and Losers

    The hosts analyzed the current Top 10—including Bitcoin, Ethereum, BNB, XRP, and Solana—to predict who survives the coming year.

    • The BNB Mystery: BNB has seen massive growth, climbing from approximately $700 to a high of $1,300 over the course of the year.
    • The "Washed" XRP Army: While BNB has consistently performed, the hosts noted that it has flipped XRP in market cap, suggesting the "XRP Army" is losing its influence.
    • The Tron Factor: Tron has managed to ride every market wave to maintain a strong position, though the hosts are skeptical it will remain in the Top 10 through 2026.

    The Solana "Slow Rug" Narrative

    One of the most controversial segments of the episode focuses on Solana’s long-term sustainability and its hardware ecosystem.

    • Mobile Support Issues: The hosts discussed Solana Mobile's decision to disable support for the original "Saga" device after only two years, which they described as a "slow rug" for early adopters.
    • Meme Coin Reliance: Solana is viewed primarily as a "meme coin generator," and the hosts fear that if the meme narrative fades, the chain’s on-chain activity will collapse.
    • The Polygon Comparison: There is a prediction that Solana could become "this cycle's Polygon," slipping significantly in the rankings as fundamentals are questioned.


    The Decline of Cardano ($ADA)

    The hosts addressed why the "favourite chain" of many OG influencers might be in serious trouble in 202611.

    • "Dino Coin" Status: Cardano is at risk of falling into irrelevance because it lacks unique utility compared to its competitors.
    • Developer Friction: The chain is criticized for not being developer-friendly, with its reliance on the Haskell language being a barrier to new talent.
    • The Lobbying Gap: While founder Charles Hoskinson is praised for his crypto lobbying efforts, the hosts argue he needs to pay more attention to the chain’s actual performance and speed.

    The 2026 Bear Market Outlook

    The consensus for 2026 is a return to deep consolidation and downward price action15.

    • The Q1 Trap: The team expects a rally in Q1 of 2026, which they describe as a "relief rally" or "dead-cat bounce".
    • An "Ugly" Year: Following the Q1 rally, the remainder of the year (Q2, Q3, and Q4) is predicted to be "ugly" and bearish.
    • Bitcoin Price Target: Predictions suggest Bitcoin could drop to $50,000 or less by late 2026.
    • The Four-Year Cycle: Despite institutional money and ETFs, the hosts believe the traditional four-year cycle remains intact, though it may lengthen by four to six months.

  • Why I’m Worried About Solana: The 85% Collapse No One Is Talking About
    Dec 27 2025

    Send us a text

    In this episode of Crypto Flip, hosts Haris King, Ricardo, and Deji dive into the sharp decline in Solana's on-chain activity, discuss why meme coins appear to be fading, debate the future narrative needs for Solana, critique the rise of prediction markets as glorified gambling, and explore Coinbase's new stock trading feature as a sign of preparing for a potential crypto slowdown. They also share some crazy "crypto confessions" from listeners and unveil Ricardo's new free crypto sentiment app.

    In This Episode:


    • Crypto Confessions: Heartbreaking stories of an 18-year-old getting liquidated for $135K and a founder blowing $400K post-company sale on vacations, cars, DoorDash, and Fortnite skins


    • Solana's massive drop in daily active users from ~4.8M to 680K since early 2025 – an ~86% decline tied to fading meme coin hype


    • Debate on whether meme coins are dead on Solana and if the chain desperately needs a new narrative beyond memes (DePIN didn't take off, prediction markets dismissed as gambling)


    • Why the hosts are currently bullish only on Bitcoin and staying away from Solana until market direction clears


    • Criticism of prediction markets (e.g., Polymarket) as worse than traditional gambling due to insider edges


    • Coinbase launching stock trading on its platform – interpreted as a defensive move to maintain revenue ahead of an expected crypto bear or ranging market


    • Ricardo's new free Crypto Sentiment app that gauges sentiment across the top 100 coins by market cap

  • Why You Should Be Terrified of 55.95% Bitcoin Dominance.
    Dec 18 2025

    Send us a text

    Episode Overview

    In this week's episode, the team dives deep into the current state of the market as Bitcoin sits at $92,000. We explore the recent FOMC rate cut and its long-term implications for liquidity , analyze why Bitcoin dominance is the key to a true "Altcoin Season" , and discuss Coinbase’s aggressive new strategy to take on prediction markets and the Solana ecosystem.

    Plus, we feature some "Crypto Confessions" that serve as a brutal reminder of the dangers of over-leveraging.

    Key Discussion Points

    • Crypto Confessions: The Dark Side of the Trade
      • A listener shares a harrowing story of losing their entire life savings—and their mother's—due to over-trading and borrowing from private lenders.
      • Another trader details their fall from a $1.2 million portfolio in 2024 to owing the IRS $25k today.
      • The Takeaway: The hosts stress the importance of strategy over "throwing darts" and the danger of treating crypto like a gambling addiction.
    • Market Analysis: The $92k Range
      • Bitcoin is currently ranging between the high $80k's and low $90k's.
      • Price Predictions: The team discusses the potential for a "Santa Rally" and a test of the $100k psychological barrier, with a possible "blow-off top" reaching $125k–$130k later in the cycle.
    • Altcoin Sentiment: While Ripple (XRP) has broken $2 and Ethereum is holding over $3,000, a massive alt-season likely won't trigger until Bitcoin dominance (currently ~55.95%) significantly drops.
    • The FOMC Impact
      • The Fed recently issued a 25 basis point (0.25%) rate cut.
      • While this is generally bullish for "risk-on" assets due to increased liquidity, the team warns that the effects are often medium-to-long term rather than immediate.
    • Coinbase vs. Everyone
      • Coinbase is moving into prediction markets (taking on Polymarket) and launching tokenized stocks.
      • They are also allowing users to trade all Solana tokens via DEX integration without official listings—a major play for retail volume.
    • Stock vs. Crypto: Why the hosts believe buying Coinbase stock ($COIN) might be redundant if you already have heavy exposure to Bitcoin.

    Notable Quotes

    "You're only delusional until it works... but even if he makes it, I don't have the confidence he'll keep it. That’s a different skill entirely."

    "We won't get a big alt-coin season until Bitcoin dominance comes down... it typically won't come down until Bitcoin goes exponentially high."
