CMS Holdings co-founder warns of crowding risk from 'barbell strategy'

  • —Matuszewski put BTC, ETH, ZEC, gold and HYPE at the two ends of the barbell
  • —He estimates crypto funds have built only about half of their intended positions
  • —2021 precedent: SOL recovered while some assets in the same basket did not
  • —SEC granted a five-year conditional exemption for US tokenized-stock trading on Sept 17
Why it matters: Crowding into the same assets raises the risk of a sharp drawdown when the market turns.
