Market forecasters at Galaxy Research are bullish on two major DeFi trends emerging by the end of 2026. First, futarchy-governed DAO treasuries could balloon to over $500M as more decentralized organizations adopt this prediction-market-based governance model. Second, the crypto-backed lending space is projected to explode—with loan volumes potentially exceeding $90B. These metrics signal growing institutional confidence in on-chain finance and suggest the DeFi ecosystem is maturing beyond speculation into serious capital allocation.

No, is 500M DAO treasury really enough? It still feels too conservative.

You're bragging again, acting like it's really true.

A DAO treasury of 500M sounds great, but will there really be that many institutions honestly coming in? I'm a bit hopeful yet a bit skeptical.

$90 billion in loans? Sounds good, but I wonder if there will be another round of liquidations then, haha. But can the DAO really manage that much money? It still depends on governance capabilities. From speculation to capital allocation... sounds nice, but I’m still waiting to see real data. $500M DAO treasury, have the institutions truly awakened this time? But I’m quite optimistic. Everyone's right, but execution is another matter. Web3 is not that simple.

Nobody really believes these numbers, right? A 500M DAO treasury sounds unbelievable.

500M DAO Treasury? That number sounds pretty impressive, but will the big players really buy in... --- $9 billion in lending? Come on, they're just hyping it up again. --- Moving from speculation to capital allocation, is this a new concept... feels like it's been said every year. --- Predictive market governance is indeed interesting, just not sure how it will actually be implemented. --- Galaxy Research is starting to hype again, let's wait until 2026 to see. --- I believe in the DAO treasury expansion, but the surge in lending raises some questions. --- Are institutions confident enough to enter? Then why isn't my wallet getting fatter? --- This trend sounds promising, but I'm just worried it might be another cyclical hype. --- A lending scale of $9 billion, provided risk management keeps up—that's the key. --- Interesting, but who dares to go all in?
