**Crypto Trends 2025: Tokenization, AI, and Bitcoin Adoption**

Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise, predicts a transformative 2025 for the crypto world. He foresees a surge in niche businesses driven by AI and tokenization, enabling small companies to access capital markets. This could lead to a boom in micro companies that tokenize instead of going public.

Horsley also anticipates the rise of "Bitcoin Standard Corporations," with more firms holding Bitcoin on their balance sheets. Additionally, a potential "unfreezing" of mergers and acquisitions could benefit the crypto sector, allowing large corporations to expand their influence.
