2025 Will Change Crypto FOREVER - This Report Will Shock You!!

where is the Bitcoin price going this year and will Ethan ever recover and which altcoin sector is absolutely going to crush it well if you want the answer to any of these questions and many more then you better watch this video I want answers and that's because in it we are going to break down one of the most important institutional reports from an absolute Titan in the crypto industry my name is Nick and don't you go anywhere I'll start by saying that nothing in this video is financial or investment advice this video is purely for entertainment and educational purposes and is designed to help you on your crypto quest with that out of the way let's dig start digging the report we'll be summarizing today is titled quote crypto predictions for 2025 it was written by Galaxy digital which is one of the largest and most respected crypto investment companies we'll leave a link to the full report in the description for you for you to come back and read at your leisure now the first section of the report revolves around Galaxy's Bitcoin predictions and the first of these is that quote Bitcoin will cross 150k in H1 and test or best 185k in Q4 2025 the report notes that this will be thanks to a wave of investments from institutions and corporations and of course adoption by nation states the report nods to BTC been the best performing asset class ever and adds that it will reach 20% of Gold's market cap uh for context gold has a market cap of 18. 7 trillion at the time of shooting this video so this would give Bitcoin a market cap of around $3. 7 trillion that's more than the market cap of the entire crypto market today which sits at around $3.

3 trillion and it also translates to a 2X for BT even at today's prices not bad at all and this ties into the second prediction which is that quote the US spot Bitcoin etps will collectively cross $250 billion in assets under management or AUM for context ETP stands for exchang traded product and exchange traded funds or ETFs fall under the ETP umbrella and of course Bitcoin etps have been growing very fast especially the spot ETFs and Galaxy sees this trend continuing now the next prediction is intriguing and despite the success of the spot Bitcoin ETFs there hasn't been a single asset manager recommending BTC as part of an Investment Portfolio well the report says this will change and expects at least one asset manager to recommend an allocation of at least 2% make no mistake folks this 2% on billions possibly even trillions in assets would mean a lot of money flowing into Bitcoin next the report predicts that five companies in the NASDAQ 100 will add BTC to their balance sheets and five nation states will announce that they have added BTC to their Sovereign wealth funds interestingly the report points out that this BTC will be accumulated through either mining or buying Bitcoin having five nation states adopt BTC might sound unrealistic but uh given the new stance of the US it's likely that other countries will want to follow suit and compete after all they risk falling behind if they don't did you know that China still accounts for a significant portion of bitcoin's hash rate and that most Bitcoin mining Machines are made in China probably nothing speaking of which the report also predicts that Bitcoin miners will agree on the next Bitcoin Improvement proposal or bi IP or bip for short for reference bips are basically upgrades to bitcoin quote since bitcoin's Inception reaching consensus on soft Forks has been a timec consuming and rare feat but consensus will emerge in 2025 an FYI soft Forks involve upgrading Bitcoin in a way that doesn't completely change its rules anyway the report expects the miners to be on board with three bips now these are op CV which enables more complex transaction types then there's op csfs which checks that a Signature Signs an arbitrary message and opcat or opcat which expands bitcoin's functionalities to enable features similar to ethereum's Smart contracts albeit not quite as advanced and for the final Bitcoin prediction the report reckons that the amount of BTC locked in defi protocols will almost double in 2025 and notably it points out that 70% of wrapped versions of BTC is used as collateral on lendin protocols as people look to earn a yield we actually reckon that so-called BTC fi or BTC defi will be a sector to keep a very close eye on uh topic for another video perhaps oh and um if you enjoying this one show it some love by punching those like And subscribe buttons and of course flicking that Bell to make sure you don't miss our next one okay the next section of the report focuses on predictions for ethereum and the first of these being that eth will hit $5,500 this year thanks to a number of factors these include improved defi regulations Partnerships between Defi and trfi and corporations experimenting with layer 2 networks and Galaxy also expects to see a Revival in blockchain gaming and nfts which could of course be huge for eth next the report predicts that more than 50% of eth's circulating Supply will be State and that's because president Trump's Administration is expected to introduce clear regulations in the US which could allow spot ethereum ETF issuers to stake some of the eth that they hold the next prediction uh meanwhile is that the eth BTC ratio will fall to about 0. 03 but will rise above 0.
