Outpoll Weekly Recap: Crypto (October 6 – 12, 2025)

3 hours ago7 min read

This week felt like a gut check for the crypto space, a stark reminder that while the altcoin circus continues its noisy performance, Bitcoin remains the bedrock. The big story was Bitcoin’s resilience, holding firm above key support levels while the usual suspects—a parade of DeFi tokens and metaverse projects—swung wildly on the fumes of speculation and regulatory whispers.It’s the same old song and dance; the ‘flippening’ narrative gets trotted out whenever ETH has a good day, but let's be real, it's just noise against the immutable truth of BTC's dominance. Prediction markets, always a fascinating barometer of crowd sentiment, saw a surge in bets on further regulatory crackdowns, which, frankly, is the healthy purge this ecosystem needs to shake out the weak hands and the outright scams.The real action, the smart money, is watching the hash rate and the accumulation by long-term holders, the true believers who understand that this isn't a get-rich-quick scheme but a fundamental rewiring of the global financial system. Forget the shiny new objects and the promises of a decentralized future built on shaky foundations; this week proved that when the winds change, it's the digital gold that stands tall while the rest get tested. The path forward is clear: stack sats, ignore the hype, and trust the code, not the regulators who are perpetually playing catch-up.
