Wu Blockchain reports that Bitwise has released its Q3 2026 crypto market review, stating that the Bitwise Top 10 Crypto Index fell 15.4% in Q2, with 8 out of 10 constituent assets declining. Spot Bitcoin ETFs recorded their worst quarterly outflows on record, while on-chain activity, trading volume, and DeFi assets all decreased. The correlation between the crypto market and stocks has risen. Meanwhile, prediction market trading volume hit a new high of $43.2 billion, up nearly 18x year-over-year; tokenized real-world assets grew 50.3% this year to $32.89 billion; the Bitwise Crypto Innovators 30 Index rose 30.6%; stablecoin settlement volume reached 2.3x that of Visa, with U.S. Treasury holdings surpassing most countries. Hyperliquid, PancakeSwap, and Aave each generated approximately $900 million in revenue over the past year. Bitwise noted that this marks the third consecutive quarter of negative returns, the longest streak since 2022. However, compared to the 2022 bear market bottom, Ethereum transaction activity has grown by about 13x, DeFi total value locked (TVL) has increased by over 60%, and stablecoin assets under management have roughly doubled. https://(wublock123.com)/news/bitwise-q2-crypto-third-consecutive-negative-returns-volume-43-2b-64349
