Chris Burniske Warns of Prolonged Crypto Market Weakness

News Flash 2025-10-17 16:46

Chris Burniske, a prominent cryptocurrency analyst and partner at Placeholder VC, has warned that the recent market crash has significantly undermined investor confidence, potentially leaving the crypto market in a weakened state for an extended period. Burniske, formerly of ARK Invest, emphasized that the severe sell-off has inflicted both structural and psychological damage, complicating efforts to establish a sustained market recovery. Burniske pointed out that major cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin and Ethereum are showing signs of fatigue, with Bitcoin trading just above $100,000 and Ethereum near $3,900. He also noted macroeconomic factors, such as the fragility of the credit market and the struggles of MicroStrategy, as contributing to a broader risk-off sentiment. Burniske suggested that a renewed interest in the market might only emerge if Bitcoin's price falls to $75,000 or below.
