Since the Bitcoin spot ETF was approved in early 2024, the cryptocurrency ETF market is gradually maturing. The Ethereum spot ETF was subsequently approved in July of the same year, marking the continued growth of institutional and retail investors' interest in crypto assets. 2025 may become a watershed year for the expansion of this track, which is expected to usher in more altcoin ETFs and inject new vitality into the crypto market.

Current situation review: the success of BTC and ETH ETFs

Since its listing, Bitcoin ETFs have performed well, accounting for more than 5% of the total supply, with cumulative assets under management exceeding tens of billions of dollars. BlackRock's iShares Bitcoin Trust (IBIT) is the leader in the market. In addition, the launch of Ethereum ETFs has further consolidated the important position of crypto ETFs, and ETH ETFs that provide staking functions may become an investment hotspot in 2025.

This rapid development of the market is not only due to investor demand, but also closely related to the change in regulatory direction. The current SEC Chairman Gary Gensler will step down in early 2025, and Paul Atkins, nominated by Trump, is a representative of crypto-friendliness, and the policy environment may be more open in the future.

The Next Opportunity for Altcoin ETFs: SOL, HBAR, or XRP?

One of the focuses in 2025 is the launch of more altcoin ETFs, especially projects such as Solana (SOL) and Hedera (HBAR) that stand out in technology and ecology.

  • Solana ETF: According to Nate Geraci, president of ETF Store, the SOL ETF will be approved by the end of 2025 at the latest. The reason is that the success of spot BTC and ETH ETFs has paved the way for a new round of products, and the market's interest in Solana and continued development momentum also support this possibility.

  • Hedera and XRP: Hedera is considered to be a target of greater institutional attention, while XRP's global payment network characteristics make it a potential ETF. However, JPMorgan analysts pointed out that the SEC's lawsuit against unregistered securities may become a key obstacle to the launch of an ETF.

As for Dogecoin (DOGE), although its launch of an ETF seems absurd, the creativity of the market often exceeds expectations. As analyst Eric Balchunas said: "Today's irony may be tomorrow's ETF."

Regulation and market drivers: the impact of the new administration

2025 is likely to witness significant changes to the U.S. regulatory framework, from stablecoin regulation and SAB 121 rule revisions to clarification on the taxation of staking rewards, and the overall environment for crypto assets will become clearer. The SEC’s reform will directly affect the pace of launch of ETF products, and at the same time provide an opportunity for traditional financial institutions to fully enter the field of crypto assets.

Market Outlook: Diversification and Growth

Analysts generally predict that 2025 will see a wave of new crypto ETFs, including:

  • Bitcoin and Ethereum Combined ETF

  • Single asset ETFs for altcoins (e.g. LTC, HBAR)

  • Ethereum ETF focusing on staking income

Additionally, Bitwise believes that inflows into Bitcoin ETFs will further accelerate in 2025, while VanEck predicts that the introduction of physical trading and redemption features will bring higher liquidity to spot ETFs.

The Edge of Change

Crypto ETFs in 2025 may become a bridge between traditional finance and digital assets, and the success of ETFs for altcoins such as SOL and HBAR will determine the depth and breadth of this market. In the future, as more countries follow the US regulatory framework, crypto ETFs are expected to become an important part of global investment portfolios.
