Bitwise CIO Declares “Crypto Cycle is Dead” — Welcome to the Institutional Era 📈
Matt Hougan, CIO at Bitwise, just shook the crypto world with a bold prediction:
“The four-year crypto cycle is dead.”
“We’ve entered a new era—dominated by institutional flows, not halving hype.”
— Matt Hougan, Bitwise
📊 According to Bitwise data, 35% of all crypto trading is now institutional.
Gone are the days of boom & bust driven by retail speculation.
Welcome to a data-driven, ETF-powered market where BlackRock, Fidelity, and large firms set the tone.
🔹 What’s driving this shift?
Bitcoin & Ethereum ETFs gaining traction
$BTC & $ETH inflows exceeding $700M in July
Traditional finance adopting digital asset infrastructure
💡 Bitwise's Takeaway:
“Expect less volatility, more steady growth. The future of crypto is in regulated, long-hold portfolios.”
📉 Short-term cycles? Maybe still real.
But the macro game has changed—and those waiting for a 2018-style crash may miss the train entirely.
