Bitcoin's 5% decline following a $6 billion Binance security breach—compared to the 20-40% crashes that would have occurred a decade ago—reflects structural changes in crypto markets: institutional ownership, derivatives hedging, and compartmentalized risk management now absorb shocks that once cascaded across the entire ecosystem.

Regulators, enterprises, and traditional finance should evaluate systemic risk in digital assets accordingly.
