"...a $1T asset that doesn't even exist within the walls of the legacy financial system?"

This is not a superable assumption. It also entirely neglects the exponential increase in value the derivative market creates, which ETF's are the foot in the door of. The question traders and HODLers alike have to have an answer to is at what point do legacy financial institutions decide to take profits?

Ya'll won't get bailed out like they will, so better to bail early than late, IMHO.

Good luck!
