That $BTC surpassed USD $100 thousand and $XRP is seen positively towards the future, has brought many novice investors, curious ones, and those who refused to enter the #crypto world.
It is obvious, but many of those who were already inside this market forget, when making projections, that the intervention of these new 'actors' influences the behavior of the market.
Moreover, this end of the #2024 has managed to convince the world that $BTC is not an internet game, nor much less a scam or money laundering.
Here there is history, movements, myths, and lunatics just like in any stock exchange in the world. Therefore, it is a known world for investors of 'traditional' markets, and with so much movement on these sides, it is undeniable that for the #2025 they will come in with everything they have to take their share.
The last ones I mentioned are the ones I want to stop and focus on.
More than ever, now there will be interest from states, banks, and large investors to regulate this, to limit it with their laws and maneuvers.
There is a lot of advice for newcomers who have just discovered this world, but it is being overlooked that this crypto thing is no longer a sub-world, nor something apart from society itself.
This article is not alarmist, nor does it intend to be discouraging towards the coming years; on the contrary, like many, I think what’s coming will be better than what we are living, but I don’t want to overlook that doubt.
Will the big conglomerates be the new whales? Those who possess large amounts of money and the millionaire institutions of any industry, will they be the ones who will control the behavior of cryptos from now on?
I invite you to think about this reflection and comment.
