Odaily Planet Daily news Marcus Ashworth and Mark Gilbert, Bloomberg columnists, say the key takeaway for 2025 is: buckle up, it will be a rollercoaster ride. Regarding the future of Bitcoin, they point out that Nobel Prize-winning economist Paul Krugman stated last month on the Bluesky social platform that although Bitcoin has surpassed $100,000, there is still no legitimate use case even after 15 years. The recent surge in Bitcoin prices has at least one identifiable catalyst: hope that the Trump administration will adopt a more lenient stance on cryptocurrencies. This hope is likely to be realized under the leadership of incoming SEC Chairman Paul Atkins, who is believed to have a more friendly attitude towards the crypto market than his predecessor, making the regulatory environment almost certainly less hostile.
