Bitwise CEO Predicts New Crypto Cycle and Generational Shift in 2026

According to Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley, the crypto market is on the cusp of a significant transformation in 2026. A new cycle is expected to emerge, marked by a generational shift in leadership and a changing landscape.

Horsley's prediction is based on historical trends, which show that the industry undergoes recurring cycles of change every few years. This 'changing of the guard' phenomenon has been observed in previous market downturns, where established players make way for new entrants and innovative projects.
