Crypto bank Anchorage Digital eyes $400M raise with IPO in sight: Report

As meme coins posted sharp rebounds earlier this year, PEPE also rallied, 
delivering notable gains. Although the meme coin has since slipped back into 
negative territory, a crypto analyst believes another bullish reversal may be 
approaching soon. According to the analyst, a key technical pattern has 
recently emerged on the chart, suggesting that PEPE has formed a bottom and 
could be on its way to a massive 3,000% price rally. PEPE Price Prepares For 
Massive 3,000% Rally In a post shared on X this Thursday, market analyst 
CryptoLinx outlined a bullish outlook for PEPE, pointing to a key shift on the 
weekly chart that he believes could trigger a 3,000% rally in the meme coin’s 
price. He stated that PEPE has just printed a bullish Moving Average 
Convergence Divergence (MACD) cross on the weekly timeframe. Related Reading: 
Bitcoin Price Crash To $57,000: The Bullish Path That Could End In Tears The 
analyst’s chart shows the weekly MACD lines crossing upward with momentum 
shifting from red to green. This move comes after an extended downtrend and 
coincides with price stabilizing and starting to curl higher, a pattern often 
associated with a rounded bottom. In his post, CryptoLinx emphasized that most 
traders and investors do not fully understand just how powerful the weekly 
MACD can be when it crosses at a true market bottom. Such moments often mark 
the market’s transition from an accumulation phase to a sustained uptrend. In 
previous cycles, similar setups have led to substantial price appreciation in 
PEPE. Moves of 200% to 300% were recorded in the PEPE price as momentum 
shifted in favor of buyers. CryptoLinx has suggested that if PEPE has indeed 
found its true bottom, its potential price rally could be significantly more 
explosive than past cycles. Based on the analyst&#8217;s predictions, the bullish 
MACD cross would not fuel a simple price recovery for PEPE, but an explosive 
surge that could completely flip its ongoing downtrend and mark a new ATH. The 
analysis points to a potential upside of 1,500% to 3,000% for PEPE this year. 
Such a rally could see the meme coin jump from its current levels around 
$0.00000585 to $0.0000928 and $0.000179, respectively. An Update On PEPE Price 
Action In 2025, the Pepe price spent several months in a sustained downtrend, 
closing the year in the red and extending its losses into the first few days 
of 2026. However, as meme coins saw a sudden market revival at the beginning 
of the year, PEPE jumped by more than 30%, briefly rallying before shedding 
some of its gains. Related Reading: Next XRP Wave Shows Where Price Is Headed 
Next, But There’s A Catch According to CoinMarketCap’s data, the PEPE price 
remains down over 68% Year-to-Date (YTD). Despite this broader decline, the 
meme coin has shown signs of recovery, climbing more than 44% over the past 
month. At the time of writing, PEPE is down nearly 3% in the last 24 hours and 
about 4.5% in the past week. Featured image created with Dall.E, chart from

Anchorage Digital looks to raise up to $400M ahead of potential 2027 IPO

According to CoinGecko’s annual report, crypto treasury companies were among 
the year’s biggest buyers even as prices fell. Their balance sheets grew 
sharply, and their actions left a clear mark on supply and markets. The 
numbers tell a story of heavy buying, pause, and then corporate moves to 
protect share value. Related Reading: Crypto Money Floods US Politics As $21 
Million Backs Trump PAC Large Treasury Buying Spree Reports have disclosed 
that these treasury firms deployed close to $50 billion into Bitcoin, 
Ethereum, and other tokens during 2025. At the start of the year, treasuries 
held more than $56 billion in crypto. By January one, 2026, that figure had 
risen to $134 billion — a gain of 137%. This buying helped push institutional 
ownership higher, with treasuries holding more than 5% of both Bitcoin and 
Ethereum supply by year-end. Public companies alone raised their Bitcoin 
reserves from about 598,714 coins to more than 1 million, an increase near 
500,000 BTC. Market Drop Came Late In The Year The broader market did not keep 
its earlier momentum. Total crypto value fell almost 8% in 2025 and finished 
the year near $3 trillion. Most of the damage came late. 2025 Annual Crypto 
Industry Report is now LIVE 📊 Last year marked crypto’s first down year since 
2022, featuring a brief $4.4T peak in Q4 before a historic $19B liquidation 
ended the year at $3.0T. Here are 7 key highlights you shouldn&#8217;t miss 👇 
pic.twitter.com/HLbI5BrzwN — CoinGecko (@coingecko) January 15, 2026 The 
market shed almost a quarter of its value in the last three months, and a 
liquidation wave near $19 billion in October sped the decline after total 
market value briefly hit about $4.4 trillion. Bitcoin slipped roughly 1.4% to 
near $95,300 at one point as investors weighed policy moves in the US and 
shifting rate expectations. Supply Now Held By Treasuries By the start of 
2026, treasuries were holding more than 1 million Bitcoin and 6 million ETH. 
That concentration matters because assets put on corporate books are less 
likely to be traded frequently. When large shares of supply are locked up, 
price swings can be smaller in calm times, but the effect can flip if selling 
is forced. BTCUSD trading at $95,524 on the 24-hour chart: TradingView Related

Produced Companies Shifted Strategy When Stocks Fell When prices fell in the 
fourth quarter, some treasury firms saw their share prices dip below the value 
of their crypto holdings. To support their stock, many paused buying and 
turned to share buybacks. That action slowed the pace of token purchases. The 
move was traditional: protect investors’ equity value rather than add more 
tokens into a weakening market. Featured image from Pexels, chart from
