PANews reported on November 16th that Nic Carter, co-founder of Castle Island Ventures, tweeted, "2025 being 'worse' is no irony, because while 2022 also had its share of bad things, cryptocurrency was at the center of attention and in the spotlight. Today, retail investors are focused on data centers, quantum computing, and rare earth stocks. The cryptocurrency downtrend isn't based on any catalyst, but simply on market weakness, a lack of attention and buyers, and the lingering effects of the DAT incident. This doesn't mean it's all over; it just means the concepts of 'four-year cycles' and 'alt season' are outdated. To make money, you have to truly create value, which is a significant challenge for many." Nic Carter advises, “Decouple yourself emotionally from cryptocurrency and don’t put too much pressure on yourself to ‘succeed’ in ‘this cycle.’ Real life isn’t like that. The price movements of cryptocurrency over the past decade have blinded you. That won’t happen again. Achieving your goals requires creating products and delivering real value.”PANews reported on November 16th that Nic Carter, co-founder of Castle Island Ventures, tweeted, "2025 being 'worse' is no irony, because while 2022 also had its share of bad things, cryptocurrency was at the center of attention and in the spotlight.

Castle Island Ventures co-founder: Lack of attention and other factors led to the cryptocurrency decline; suggests decoupling from sentiment.

Kalshi debuts ecosystem hub with Solana and Base
The post Kalshi debuts ecosystem hub with Solana and Base appeared on BitcoinEthereumNews.com. Kalshi, the US-regulated prediction market exchange, rolled out a new program on Wednesday called KalshiEco Hub. The initiative, developed in partnership with Solana and Coinbase-backed Base, is designed to attract builders, traders, and content creators to a growing ecosystem around prediction markets. By combining its regulatory footing with crypto-native infrastructure, Kalshi said it is aiming to become a bridge between traditional finance and onchain innovation. The hub offers grants, technical assistance, and marketing support to selected projects. Kalshi also announced that it will support native deposits of Solana’s SOL token and USDC stablecoin, making it easier for users already active in crypto to participate directly. Early collaborators include Kalshinomics, a dashboard for market analytics, and Verso, which is building professional-grade tools for market discovery and execution. Other partners, such as Caddy, are exploring ways to expand retail-facing trading experiences. Kalshi’s move to embrace blockchain partnerships comes at a time when prediction markets are drawing fresh attention for their ability to capture sentiment around elections, economic policy, and cultural events. Competitor Polymarket recently acquired QCEX — a derivatives exchange with a CFTC license — to pave its way back into US operations under regulatory compliance. At the same time, platforms like PredictIt continue to push for a clearer regulatory footing. The legal terrain remains complex, with some states issuing cease-and-desist orders over whether these event contracts count as gambling, not finance. This is a developing story.
