For crypto trading venues, the question is whether earnings can last: Qiao Wang, co-founder of The Alliance, said competition makes a 20x P/E hard to justify.
Wang made the remarks Sept. 15, 2026. He cited Hyperliquid as one example of a venue facing competitive pressure and said the same concern extended across the sector.
He also said a 5x multiple was high, tying his view to whether earnings could persist.
