I think it CAN come to an end. The backbone of crypto and the blockchain is the willingness to maintain it which has a cost. The reason why this maintenance is cost effective is because the major holders are few and at a < 1/2 of the entire base. As long as the "right" people are winning, there will be enough justification to keep the ball rolling. If there will come a day, in which the ammount of holders become so dilluted that there stops being any clear (lets say) influencers at the top, then the "cool boy's club" will be no more. This is when exchanges will no longer have any skin in the game. Massive runs and "outages" until a few weird naive dreamers are left at the helm of the sinking ship.
