Crypto provider 21Shares foresees a remarkable year for crypto in 2025. According to its latest research, crypto exchange-traded products are set to reach $150 billion in assets under management by then, spurred by growing institutional interest. The firm’s “2025 State of Crypto Market Outlook” released on Dec. 9 highlights key drivers like increasing institutional demand, U.S. approvals of crypto ETPs, and favorable macroeconomic conditions.
It predicts that more countries, such as Argentina, will likely adopt Bitcoin as a reserve asset. Also, Bitcoin’s total value locked is expected to exceed $10 billion in 2025, showing its expanding utility. Adrian Fritz, 21Shares’ head of research, said that while European markets have led in digital asset adoption recently, the U.S. is catching up as investor interest in digital assets rises.
Ethereum is anticipated to have a revenue rebound, with 21Shares forecasting it will regain and potentially surpass its target growth, thanks to strategic layer 2 integrations. Stablecoins are also predicted to see increased adoption by traditional financial sectors and web2 giants, as they represent a prime use case. 21Shares, which had a strong 2024 with over $10 billion in AUM, will introduce new executives to fuel business expansion in 2025.
