Institutions Drive Crypto Bull Run as Retail Steps Back, Says Exodus CEO
Richardson pointed to several developments as evidence, including the stablecoin market capitalization reaching an all-time high
Exodus CEO JP Richardson said on Sunday that financial institutions have "accelerated" their participation in crypto markets this year while retail investors have pulled back, calling it potentially the first crypto cycle where institutions are in a bull market and retail is largely unaware of it.

Richardson pointed to several developments as evidence, including the stablecoin market capitalization reaching an all-time high, Morgan Stanley launching a BTC ETF, Schwab opening a waitlist for spot Bitcoin trading, Franklin Templeton announcing a dedicated crypto division, and Fannie Mae beginning to accept Bitcoin-backed mortgages.

"In 2018 and 2022, institutions pulled out with retail. This time, they accelerated," he wrote on X. The shift suggests crypto may be transitioning from retail-driven hype cycles toward a more mature, institution-led market with steadier accumulation and deeper liquidity.

MN Fund founder and crypto analyst Michaël van de Poppe echoed the view in a Sunday X post, stating that retail is clearly not interested in crypto right now. He attributed the absence to the cost-of-living crisis, saying almost everyone is struggling to pay monthly bills, leaving little appetite for speculative assets.

CryptoQuant analyst Darkfost reported that retail activity hit a nine-year low earlier this month, with inflows from small accounts holding less than 1 BTC reaching a record low. He said some retail investors may have recently shifted into equities and commodities, both of which have delivered strong returns.

According to the latest report, Bitwise has taken a step closer toward the launch of its proposed spot Hyperliquid (HYPE) exchange-traded fund (ETF) after filing a second amendment with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission.

Bitwise Updates List Of Countertrading Parties In Hyperliquid ETF Filing
On Friday, April 10th, Bitwise submitted its second amendment to its spot Hyperliquid with the SEC, introducing new names to the list of approved trading counterparties ahead of an imminent launch in the US. This latest filing included FalconX, Flowdesk, Nonco, and Wintermute as approved trading counterparties for the asset manager.

Earlier in its first amendment filing in December 2025, Bitwise revealed the fund’s BHYP ticker, an annual management fee of 0.67%, and a proposal to generate additional profit through HYPE staking. Also, the asset management fund had listed three trading counterparties at the time, including A1 (now dropped off), Nonco, and Solios (disclosed as a d/b/a of FalconX).

In a post on the social media platform, Bloomberg senior ETF analyst Eric Balchunas highlighted the second amendment filing, saying that this latest update suggests that the fund’s launch might be imminent. Despite competition from two other asset managers, Bitwise looks set to win the race for the first spot ETF linked to Hyperliquid’s native token, HYPE.

21Shares followed with an application of its own to launch a Hyperliquid ETF in October 2025, while Grayscale submitted its own filing in late March 2026. Upon approval (which looks like a matter of when rather than if), Bitwise’s HYPE ETF will debut on the NYSE Arca stock exchange and offer investors exposure to the spot price of Hyperliquid.

This percentage has now declined by -15 points since 2017. The latest IMF data now share details of USD market share, adding how the currency makes up about 57% of global reserves, the lowest since 1994. This data snippet has come in the middle of a crucial financial juncture, with gold being in the center of it all. As gold is the latest obsession of the central banks across the world, the US dollar continues to take the heat of it all, with its market share tumbling rapidly. "The US dollar continues to lose market share. The US dollar now represents ~46% of global FX and gold reserves, the lowest in at least 26 years. This percentage has declined -15 points since 2017. Excluding gold, the US dollar makes up 57% of global reserve currencies, the lowest since 1994, according to IMF data. This comes as central banks have aggressively accumulated gold and diversified into other currencies. The last time the US dollar fell below 50% of global reserves was in 1990-1991, a period marked by elevated inflation, a recession, and a crisis of confidence in the US economy.
