Galaxy Research shared its predictions for the cryptocurrency market in 2025 via Twitter, covering multiple areas including Bitcoin, Ethereum, stablecoins, DeFi, and L2s. Major predictions include:
Bitcoin is expected to break $150,000 in the first half of 2025, with the fourth quarter possibly reaching or exceeding $185,000.
Benefiting from regulatory easing in the DeFi and staking sectors, Ethereum is expected to surpass $5,500 in 2025.
It is expected that by the end of 2025, the staking ratio of Ethereum will exceed 50%.
In 2025, a large number of leading Bitcoin miners are expected to collaborate with high-performance computing (HPC) and AI companies to drive the transformation of mining infrastructure.
At least one top wealth management platform will announce a recommendation for a 2% or higher allocation of Bitcoin in portfolios, further driving the inflow of funds into Bitcoin ETPs.
DeFi enters the 'Dividend Era': DeFi applications are expected to start distributing at least $1 billion in value to users and token holders.
In 2025, venture capital in the cryptocurrency industry will exceed $150 billion, a year-on-year increase of over 50%.
It is expected that by 2025, the supply of stablecoins will double, and more stablecoin projects supported by traditional financial (TradFi) partners will be launched.
