Odaily Planet Daily News: On-chain analysis platform Nansen shared insights on important institutional trends that will drive the crypto market in 2025, with narratives expected to perform well under a clearer regulatory framework. It indicated that the crypto industry may experience a surge in institutional interest in listed crypto products. Therefore, Bitcoin may become a default balanced asset allocation between asset management companies and pension funds. Nansen analysts noted that buy-side investors may begin to integrate cryptocurrencies into standard allocations, shifting from a traditional 60/40 stock-bond split to a 55/40/5 stock/bond/crypto split. Bitcoin may also become a commonly used collateral in traditional lending and DeFi. It was previously reported that stablecoin issuer Tether has been negotiating a $2 billion BTC lending project with financial services company Cantor Fitzgerald. Additionally, the launch of new derivative products like Bitcoin ETF options indicates that institutional adoption rates are increasing. Nansen mentioned that such products and their trading platforms will also attract fees from financial intermediaries, leading to significant industry growth. Furthermore, institutions are exploring the tokenization of financial assets at an increasingly rapid pace. US companies are making significant strides towards integrating blockchain into the financial market, which could become a foundation for growth if authorities provide clear rules for such operations. Another trend that could drive growth in the cryptocurrency industry is stablecoin regulation. If the US makes progress in establishing a regulatory framework for stablecoins, institutions may adopt tokenized fiat currencies more widely. Meanwhile, Nansen noted that the market is seeing healthy rotations among well-performing cryptocurrencies amid relatively shallow consolidation after the elections. Although December's historical seasonality indicates a positive environment, volatility may increase when the new US government takes office in January next year. (CryptoPotato)
