Loukas Identifies Social Media Crypto Narrative as Vulnerable
Loukas stated that what may not survive this cycle is the version of crypto that social media has been selling. This includes promises of guaranteed returns, the narrative that every token would become the next Bitcoin, and the idea that the space would move in one direction permanently. Loukas noted that this version of crypto has a poor track record of surviving bear markets intact. Bitcoin and crypto, on the other hand, have a better track record.
