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.
