In 2024, the cryptocurrency sector has experienced many significant fluctuations, and according to analyses from recent articles, 2025 promises to mark many groundbreaking changes in the crypto world. Below are some highlights expected to shape the market in the near future.
The Rise of Altcoin
When it comes to cryptocurrency, one cannot overlook the influence of Bitcoin. However, altcoins are gradually asserting their position with a series of groundbreaking projects and technologies. Experts predict that altcoins will continue to increase their market share compared to Bitcoin due to the flexibility and diverse applications that many of these cryptocurrencies offer. Ethereum, Binance Coin, and Cardano are names attracting attention due to technological upgrades and strategic partnerships.
U.S. Cryptocurrency Policy: The State and Bitcoin
According to a report by Alex Thorn, head of research at Galaxy Digital, U.S. government policy regarding Bitcoin will be one of the major factors influencing the cryptocurrency market in 2025. Thorn predicts that while the U.S. government is unlikely to purchase more Bitcoin, it will focus on managing its existing Bitcoin holdings, estimated to be around 183,850 BTC (equivalent to about $17.36 billion).
Additionally, the Bitcoin 2024 Act proposed by Senator Cynthia Lummis could open up opportunities for annual Bitcoin accumulation, laying the groundwork for a new national reserve for this currency. This idea not only affects the U.S. but also stimulates interest from other countries in integrating Bitcoin into their national reserves.
Conclusion
The changes and forecasts indicate growth potential not only from altcoins but also from the cryptocurrency policies of countries, especially the United States. Strategic management of cryptocurrency will not only increase market value but also affirm its role in the global economy. The year 2025 will witness significant maturity and changes in the cryptocurrency sector, opening a new era for both Bitcoin and altcoins.
