He believes investors are chasing AI tech stocks and supply chains, while newly wealthy individuals from the AI boom prioritize buying hard assets or diversifying into NASDAQ stocks rather than investing in the crypto market. Furthermore, Arthur Hayes believed that if AI stocks crash, cryptocurrencies will initially plunge in tandem. Due to their 24/7 liquidity, investors will be forced to sell crypto to generate cash during margin calls before the market eventually stabilizes and sorts out the relative winners.
ARK Invest: Crypto Consolidation, Bankruptcies and Shutdowns to Increase in Coming Months
ARK Invest researcher Lorenzo Valente said the crypto industry is undergoing a deeper consolidation than previous bear markets, with capital allocation becoming increasingly concentrated as teams and exchanges lacking product-market fit exit the market.

Hyperliquid and PumpFun account for 67% of total application revenue, while the top three projects, including Ethena, account for nearly 80%. Valente expects industry M&A activity, bankruptcy filings, project shutdowns, and talent acquisitions to increase further in the coming months.
