Renowned venture capital investor Chris Burniske predicts an upcoming crypto bull market that will surpass previous cycles in size. Burniske, now a partner at Placeholder Capital and formerly an analyst at ARK Invest, believes a new wave of projects and catalysts will drive this upcoming bull cycle. Burniske also drew attention to two altcoin projects that deserve attention in this respect. Here are the details…
The cycle draws attention in the market
As we have reported as Kriptokoin.com, the famous venture capitalist Burniske made statements. Commenting on the past, Burniske said, “We thought ’13 was crazy until we saw 17. We thought ’17 was crazy, until we saw ’21. We thought ’21 was crazy until we saw ’25’.” He attributes the potential of this next surge to changing regulatory trends, the maturation of the internet financial system (IFS), the proliferation of non-fungible tokens (NFTs), and the optimism of influential figures like BlackRock CEO Larry Fink. He also expects interest rates to fall, leading to a repricing of time and all risk assets.
In the future, everything becomes a rollup, tapping into the security of a handful of multi-trillion-dollar base layers — simple as that.

Burniske envisions a future where most crypto projects converge on a certain number of layer-1s that provide security for thousands of blockchains. He believes this consolidation will solidify the winners in the infrastructure layer and erode the value of lesser-known infrastructure projects. According to him, venture capitalists who focus solely on infrastructure will suffer losses as a result. However, this consolidation will reduce the block space-serving cost and encourage expansion and experimentation at the application layer. Burniske suggests that it may take a full market cycle for these trends to become apparent.
Fast horse sending for altcoin projects
Earlier this year, Burniske described Solana (SOL) as one of the most promising opportunities for the next bull market. Burniske’s firm, Placeholder Capital, adopted an “aircraft carrier strategy” during bear markets. Thus, it focuses on several ecosystems to build expertise and make strategic investments. In the previous bear market, their strategy was centered around Ethereum and Bitcoin because of their scale and liquidity. Currently, Placeholder Capital is implementing a similar strategy around Cosmos and Solana. In particular, it invests in core assets while exploring and supporting various teams and projects within these ecosystems.
Burniske’s optimistic outlook is in line with broader sentiment in the crypto industry as technological advances, regulatory advances and increased corporate attention continue to drive innovation and adoption. As the market evolves, investors and enthusiasts eagerly await the potential of another major bull market, in hopes of making substantial gains and witnessing the transformative power of cryptocurrencies and Blockchain technology.
