Crypto slowdown leads to fund closures
The cryptocurrency sector is experiencing a sharp decline, with many investment funds related to these assets closing or pulling back plans to launch new products, due to decreasing demand and a changing market structure currently focused on a limited number of major digital assets. Since the beginning of the year, Bitcoin's value has fallen by about 28%, and the index of smaller coins has declined by over 40%, with notable losses in assets such as Solana, Dogecoin, and ADA. Despite this, financial institutions continue to adopt blockchain technologies more broadly, with liquidity concentrated in specific assets. It is expected that tokenized real-world assets will surpass traditional assets within the next three years, with institutional activity reaching 72% of market trades by the first half of 2026, even though the number of different tokens traded by institutions has increased by only 24%. Experts indicate that the market is entering a phase where liquidity is concentrated in major currencies and institutional use, while speculative activity on alternative coins is declining.
