Bitwise CEO: Crypto Investment Scene Has a Rhythm Discrepancy, Advises Investors to Take a Long-Term View
Recently, Bitwise CEO Hunter Horsley posted on the X platform, urging crypto investors to "zoom out" and focus on long-term substantial progress rather than short-term fluctuations.
Horsley pointed out that unless you're day trading, investors don’t need to obsess over weekly news headlines or monthly price swings; instead, they should concentrate on two key dimensions:
First are the fundamental factors of the cryptocurrency market. This includes real-world applications of blockchain technology, product-market fit, the depth of involvement from large companies and institutions, as well as team quality and execution capability;
Second, investors should focus on an annual time frame. In his view, although the industry’s development path hasn’t been smooth, the substantial progress made in the crypto space from 2022 to 2026 is undeniable.
Horsley also noted that right now, crypto investors privately envy AI and SpaceX, but people often forget that those overnight success stories typically require a decade or two of accumulation.
Horsley’s comments are a direct response to a post by crypto analyst Milk Road. Milk Road's post stated that Horsley believes that most native investors in the crypto world have created a “rhythm misalignment” with mainstream investors.
Specifically, in the world of native crypto investors, an hour feels quick, a day is pretty fast, a week is a meaningful time frame, and what happened four weeks ago is almost forgotten by most.
However, for those mainstream investors who have just entered the field, a month feels really fast, and a year is a reasonable time frame.
In summary, it's clear that the overall rhythms of the two groups are completely different, but the tangible progress in the industry is real; it just feels slow to those who are used to measuring time in hours.
