Matt Hougan, head of investment at investment firm Bitwise, and Ryan Rasmussen, head of research, called next year “the year of crypto IPOs” in their report “10 Cryptocurrency Predictions for 2025.”
They predict that at least five major crypto companies will go public in 2025: stablecoin issuer Circle, exchanges Creak and Figure, crypto bank Anchorage Digital and analytics company Chainalysis.
Hougan and Rasmussen suggest that by the end of 2025 Bitcoin could rise to $500,000 or more if the US government accepts Senator Cynthia Lummis' proposal for a strategic bitcoin reserve and buys 1 million BTC over the next five years.
Analysts believe that Ethereum will recover next year and reach a high of $7000 thanks to growing activity in second-layer blockchain networks. Ethereum . Price Solana could grow by 250% and exceed $750.
Success awaits the crypto exchange Coinbase next year. The company's revenue from stablecoins, staking, custodial services and the second-level Base network will grow significantly, experts predict. Thanks to this, Coinbase shares will more than double in price to $700. This will allow the exchange to enter the SP 500 index and bypass the most expensive brokerage company at the moment, Charles Schwab.
Other Bitwise predictions include an influx of funds into US spot BTC- ETF , which will double compared to this year, as well as the RWA market reaching a record $50 billion.
