Walmart's cryptocurrency ambitions are finally coming to fruition. The world's largest retailer has just launched trading features for Bitcoin and Ethereum through its fintech platform OnePay. Now users can buy and sell these two mainstream digital assets directly within the app, as well as store and use them for payments.



Market reactions show that the news has indeed sparked considerable enthusiasm. The latest Bitcoin price is $93,103, with a 24-hour trading volume of $8.87 billion. The price has fluctuated between $92,972.5 and $93,103, remaining stable at a high level.

What about the technical outlook? Bitcoin is currently consolidating sideways, with the RSI indicator at 53.81, indicating a neutral state and no signs of excessive speculation. The Bollinger Bands show the price firmly above the middle band ($88,711), with volatility contracting—often a sign that a major move may be imminent. The TD Sequential count is at 7, with no clear reversal signals yet, which is favorable for the bulls.

In short, Walmart's entry is a big deal. It will not only attract more institutional capital but also add liquidity and stability to the market. The retail giant with 230 million global users embracing cryptocurrency marks a significant step toward digital assets moving from niche circles into everyday life. This process is now irreversible—cryptocurrencies are gradually evolving from marginalized assets into a mainstream part of finance.

Walmart's move really hit the soft spot of traditional retail, but I still want to see how high the actual user conversion rate can be... After all, no matter how perfect the supply curve is, it can't withstand the indifference on the demand side.

Walmart's entry is really a turning point; even grandma can buy coins now. Isn't this considered mainstream adoption?
