Bitcoin reached the $64,700 level again today and is preparing for a potential breakout above $65,000. Ethereum has also strengthened noticeably, with buyers targeting a move above $1,900.
Meanwhile, the cryptocurrency market continues to benefit from the positive reaction to yesterday's Federal Reserve meeting. At the same time, the forecast from ARK Invest regarding a potential wave of bankruptcies and closures across the crypto industry, which was presented at the end of July, began to be confirmed by specific cases within just a few days.
The company views the current developments as the largest consolidation phase in the history of the industry. It attributes this trend to increasing investor selectivity, as projects and exchanges without strong product-market fit are finding it increasingly difficult to attract capital. Weaker players are either shutting down or continuing to fight for survival, while industry revenue is becoming increasingly concentrated among a small group of dominant protocols.
The scale of this concentration is supported by specific figures. The perpetual futures exchange Hyperliquid and the memecoin platform Pump.fun together generate approximately 67% of total cryptocurrency application revenue. With the addition of the synthetic dollar protocol Ethena, the combined share of the three leading platforms reaches nearly 80% of the sector's total revenue.
According to the company's assessment, this trend is expected to accelerate in the coming months, creating a new wave of mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcies, project closures, and team acquisitions through technology integration.
There is no need to look far for examples. BitMEX, one of the industry's oldest derivatives exchanges, recently announced that it would cease operations in September. Several days later, BitMart announced the termination of trading services starting August 26, with a complete shutdown of operations planned for January 2027.
Both cases represent a classic scenario of voluntary market exits by companies that failed to maintain competitive trading volumes amid liquidity concentration around several dominant players.
