Summary
- Capital has rotated from crypto into AI and other technology sectors, while recent volatility has further reduced appetite for crypto IPOs.
- Macro uncertainty, including interest rate expectations and global deleveraging, is making investors reluctant to support newly listed crypto stocks.
- Traditional financial firms continue adopting blockchain infrastructure even as Lopez expects many smaller crypto tokens and single-purpose businesses to disappear over the next several years.
