Novogratz Says Crypto’s Speculative Era Is Ending as Institutions Pivot to Tokenized Assets

Galaxy plans a $100 million hybrid fund allocating up to 30% to tokens with launch targeted by March.

Overview

  • Novogratz framed recent market weakness as part of a structural reset rather than a single trigger, citing no “smoking gun.”
  • He pointed to an October 2025 leverage flush that erased about $19.37 billion in positions and sidelined many retail traders and market makers.
  • Bitcoin has fallen sharply from its October peak above $126,000, trading near $66,551 after dipping close to $60,000 last week.
  • Galaxy’s planned fund would place the remainder of assets in financial-services stocks expected to be influenced by digital-asset infrastructure and policy shifts.
  • He expects the next phase to be led by tokenized real‑world assets and tokenized stocks with lower or different return profiles, and he urged passage of a U.S. market‑structure bill such as the CLARITY Act.
