Maxime Seiler, CEO of STS Digital, stated that the current cryptocurrency market prices are sluggish, but institutions are accelerating their deployment of blockchain technology. Maxime Seiler pointed out at the Wyoming Blockchain Symposium in 2026 that traditional financial institutions currently focus on adopting underlying technologies, and the growth in technology adoption has not yet been reflected in token prices. Bitcoin is currently hovering above $77000, about 38% lower than its historical high of $126000; Ethereum is around $2400, down about 52% from its historical high; Solana is about $90.93, with a drop of about 69% at its high point. Maxime Seiler believes that the convergence of Bitcoin futures basis reflects the maturity of the cryptocurrency market, and the improvement of channels for the entry and exit of the US dollar in the cryptocurrency market has reduced market volatility. （The Block）
