ARK Invest: Cryptocurrency Industry Consolidation, Bankruptcies, and Closures to Intensify in the Coming Months
ARK Invest researcher Lorenzo Valente stated that the cryptocurrency industry is undergoing a deeper consolidation than previous bear markets, with capital allocation becoming increasingly concentrated as teams and exchanges lacking product-market fit exit the market. Revenue concentration remains high across several sectors, including applications, infrastructure, and L1 services.
Hyperliquid and PumpFun account for 67% of total application revenue, while the top three projects, including Ethena, account for nearly 80%. Valente anticipates a further increase in industry M&A activity, bankruptcy filings, project closures, and talent acquisitions in the coming months.

I believe the cryptocurrency market is undergoing the largest consolidation phase in its history, far exceeding the depth of previous bear markets.
The market structure has changed. Capital is much more discerning, and teams and exchanges lacking true product-market fit (PMF) are collapsing.
Revenue concentration is at an all-time high across almost all layers of applications, middleware, and Layer 1:
@HyperliquidX and @Pumpfun account for 67% of total application revenue.
Including @ethena, the top three contribute nearly 80% of revenue.
I expect this situation to intensify in the coming months: mergers and acquisitions, bankruptcy filings, company closures, and acquisition-driven hiring will all increase significantly.
This is an extremely positive sign for the entire industry.

As @aave V4 continues to develop, yield farming opportunities are increasing.
Currently, the following projects offer double-digit annualized yields (APY):
-> PT-USDG-24SEP2026 @global_dollar revolving library
-> sUSDe @ethena revolving library
-> weETH @EtherFi revolving library
The following data is based on 12x leverage.
You can find (and access) all of these projects through the DFS Discover page.
👉
Over 55% of the market capitalization of stablecoins resides on the Ethereum mainnet. If L2 stablecoins are included, this figure approaches 60%.
Issuers choose Ethereum for the same reasons: security, reliability, ample liquidity, and a DeFi ecosystem that allows stablecoins to be effective immediately upon launch.
Circle, Tether, Sky, and Ethena are all built on and scaled on Ethereum.
In the past year, Fidelity, PayPal, and Société Générale have adopted similar strategies, while JPMorgan Chase's JPMD uses Base for settlement.
Ethereum remains the default settlement platform for institutional digital asset strategies and the optimal venue for conducting business.
