Three themes may shape the year ahead as new frontier for crypto investors unfolds, according to report
New York / Rio de Janeiro / London, December 3, 2024 – Hashdex, a global crypto-focused asset manager, today announced the release of 2025 Crypto Investment Outlook—Into the Mainstream. In the report, Hashdex’s leadership and digital assets experts review developments in the crypto space over 2024 and share perspectives on trends that may influence crypto investing in 2025 and beyond.
According to the report, institutional interest, infrastructure advancements, and evolving regulatory landscapes could influence the digital asset ecosystem. While macroeconomic conditions may bring short-term volatility, the report explores scenarios in which further innovation could lead to significant growth far beyond the market’s current $3 trillion valuation.
“Since 2018, our team has been dedicated to helping investors understand how the crypto ‘spark’ has transformed into a powerful flame of innovation and investment opportunity. As highlighted in our 2025 Crypto Investment Outlook, we believe 2024 was a pivotal year for crypto, marked by significant advancements and milestones,” said Marcelo Sampaio, Co-Founder and CEO of Hashdex. “As part of our dedication to educating investors on this compelling investment opportunity, we are proud to share our views and offer insights to assist investors in making informed decisions as the digital asset class evolves.”
Hashdex’s 2025 Crypto Investment Outlook—Into the Mainstream explores three key themes that may impact digital assets investing in the new year:
- Expansion of opportunities. The increasing adoption of digital assets within traditional financial ecosystems is broadening crypto’s role in diversified portfolios and shaping the next phase of internet development.
- Bitcoin is becoming mainstream. Institutional acceptance and the growing perception of bitcoin as a store of value have contributed to its broader recognition.
- Finding the next “killer app”. The new year could see progress in blockchain applications, as infrastructure developments and emerging trends potentially reveal new use cases.
“In last year’s report, we highlighted our expectation that crypto’s integration with traditional finance, infrastructure advancements, and macroeconomic factors would push this asset class into the mainstream, which is a trend we observed,” said Samir Kerbage, Chief Investment Officer at Hashdex. “Looking ahead, 2025 may be seen as a pivotal period for the crypto ecosystem, when investors who recognized the potential of blockchain technology beyond bitcoin achieved significant returns. As momentum continues and new use cases emerge, we believe it is crucial that investors consider the benefits of diversification within this asset class to fully capitalize on the opportunities of this promising tim.”
