Banks at Davos are done watching from the sidelines. At this year’s World Economic Forum, major financial institutions said they need crypto infrastructure to stay competitive.
A recent Altcoin Buzz video broke down three signals pointing to a potential crypto rally.
“The biggest banks in the world are clearly telling us here that they need crypto rails to do what they intend to do. And their plans seem to be to do that better, faster, cheaper,” the analysis stated.
JP Morgan is already acting on it. The bank launched JPMD, a stablecoin on Base, for institutional transfers. Stablecoins, payment platforms, real-world assets, and privacy projects stand to gain the most from this shift.
Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs saw outflows recently. But the money did not leave crypto. It moved into altcoin ETFs, with Solana and XRP products drawing fresh institutional interest.
Here is what the headlines missed: Bitcoin ETFs still pulled in a net 605,000 BTC over 2.5 weeks.
The altcoin ETF pipeline keeps growing. Solana, XRP, SUI, Avalanche, Chainlink, and Hedera all have multiple filings in play. VanEck already launched an Avalanche ETF. Coinbase expects ETFs to drive adoption well into 2026.

Ethereum bounced off a multi-year low on the ETH/BTC chart in April. It has been slowly gaining ground against Bitcoin since.
BlackRock and JP Morgan both picked Ethereum-based infrastructure for their tokenization projects. That says something.
“If your investment time frame is, let’s call it about 3 years or longer, then none of what I’m saying really matters candidly, except for the fact that being below the moving average is probably a good indication that it’s a nice time to buy,” the video noted.
The takeaway is simple. Utility matters more than memes now. Institutional money is filtering into the top 20-25 altcoins with ETF exposure. That is where the action is heading.
