In 2025, the sentiment in the crypto market fell to extreme fear, but it was not a systematic collapse. Institutions performed better due to clearer ETF, DAT, and regulatory frameworks, while retail investors faced an exhaustion of Alpha, leading to an 'identity mismatch'. The deeper root cause is that global debt has consistently outpaced output over the long term, leading to continuous dilution of savers. The significance of Crypto lies in monetary choice rather than high returns. BTC has been institutionalized as 'real money', with a substantial increase in market capitalization and share; in contrast, most L1s have lost their monetary narrative, with declining revenues yet high valuations, being reclassified as high beta risk assets. The collapse in sentiment reflects the failure of old participation methods, rather than a failure of the industry.
