Yuga Labs CEO Drops Truth Bomb: ‘2025’s Crypto Cycle Breaks All Patterns’
The crypto market’s usual playbook? Toss it out. Yuga Labs’ chief just declared this cycle defies historical trends—no lazy comparisons to 2017 or 2021.
Why This Bull Run Plays by New Rules
Institutional capital isn’t just dipping toes—it’s diving. Unlike past cycles where retail FOMO drove parabolic spikes, this time Wall Street’s algos are stacking BTC like it’s a Treasury bond (but with 10x volatility).
NFTs: From JPEGs to Financial Instruments
Bored Apes now collateralize loans. CryptoPunks trade as derivatives. The ‘digital art’ narrative got bulldozed by DeFi’s yield-hungry machinery—because nothing screams ‘store of value’ like a 10 ETH monkey picture.
The Closing Paradox
Regulators scramble while TradFi quietly replicates blockchain tech. Same old power grab—just with fancier buzzwords. The cycle’s different? Sure. The game? Still rigged.
