On paper, Ethereum remains the leader in total value locked and has launched meaningful upgrades, but that has not translated into a clean push toward $4,000.

If it fails again, the risk is that traders start treating this range as a distribution zone, not a launchpad.

What NFT Paris' Cancellation Really Says About the NFT Market

NFT Paris and its sister event, RWA Paris, were pulled a month before showtime, with organizers citing market conditions and "closing this chapter" on conferences for now. The decision comes after NFT market cap dropped from about $9 billion in early 2025 to just over $2.7 billion heading into 2026.
