This old cryptocurrency investor told TheStreet that the next implosion that could happen would be the discovery and elimination of wash trades on centralized exchanges.

A wash trade is when traders buy and sell the same asset repeatedly in a pump-and-dump scheme, generating false volume as if the demand is high and thus creating higher price.

According to a recent Forbes analysis of 157 cryptocurrency exchanges worldwide, more than 50% of reported daily bitcoin transactions may be wash trades.

Beware of fake transaction volume!!
