I tend to think crypto currencies, much more than conventional financial assets, is sensitive to the public narrative/hype due to it being a pure speculation play. A lot of people bought in over the past two years due to the hype and I suspect if the media narrative turns a lot of folks will pull out.

I think many cryptocurrencies are on the edge of pump and dump schemes, amplified by social media.
A friend of mine made a decent amount just tracking the tweets of Elon Musk and other coin influencers a few years ago.
