Bitcoin (BTC) continues to dominate the crypto industry, shaping adoption trends and influencing global finance. With 2025 approaching, institutional interest, government engagement, and retail adoption are driving its momentum.

BeInCrypto spoke with several prominent figures from across the crypto and Web3 ecosystem to explore how Bitcoin’s adoption could define the year ahead.

From ETFs to Sovereigns: Key Drivers Behind Bitcoin’s Global Rise

In 2024, institutions and governments actively embraced Bitcoin’s potential as a transformative financial asset. They viewed it as both a hedge against economic uncertainty and a driver of innovation.

Various initiatives, such as Bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs), corporate accumulation strategies, and sovereign adoption, gained significant traction in 2024. These developments created a strong foundation for Bitcoin’s continued path toward mainstream acceptance.

Industry experts expect this trend to continue next year. Yves La Rose, founder of exSat Network, highlights the growing adoption of Bitcoin by institutions and sovereign nations as a key trend for 2025. He notes that institutional interest is accelerating, fueled by Bitcoin ETF approvals and major corporations embracing MicroStrategy’s Bitcoin strategy.

“Following Donald Trump’s election and his campaign promise to establish a Bitcoin Strategic Reserve, other sovereign nations are now racing to implement similar initiatives, further fueling global Bitcoin adoption like we’ve never seen before,” he added.

Building on La Rose’s optimism, Thomas Kralow, Chairman of EVEDEX, expressed confidence in Bitcoin’s ability to reach new heights in 2025.

“The year is likely to be unpredictable, with scenarios once considered ambitious, such as Bitcoin surpassing $100,000, becoming increasingly plausible. As blockchain adoption and value continue to rise, a wave of new participants entering the space will drive the capitalization of major cryptocurrencies higher,” he remarked.

Resilient but Tested: Can Bitcoin Thrive Despite Global Economic Fragmentation?

Lennix Lai, Global Chief Commercial Officer at OKX, also acknowledged that Bitcoin’s $100,000 mark is a significant milestone for the broader industry. He noted that factors such as the recent 25 basis points (bps) rate cut, global election results, and the rise of traditional equities are contributing to a paradigm shift. According to him, this series of events marks the next phase of the crypto industry’s growth.

“While there will still be macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, leading to more short-term volatility, the fundamentals of Bitcoin are becoming more evident to a wider audience base, with access also increasing,” Lai explained.

However, experts like Ruslan Lienkha, Chief of Markets at YouHodler, caution that these developments are unfolding amid broader macroeconomic challenges. He mentioned some risks that could potentially impact Bitcoin’s trajectory and investor confidence in the following year. 

“A dramatic downturn in financial markets could be triggered by a confluence of factors, including a recession, geopolitical instability, or systemic shocks. This would have far-reaching implications for global investment and economic recovery efforts,” he added.

Despite these concerns, Lienkha views Bitcoin as a resilient asset that may serve as a hedge against financial instability. 

As Bitcoin’s adoption expands, 2025 is set to deliver transformative developments and opportunities shaped by its growing influence. In addition to this topic, BeInCrypto has gathered insights from other industry experts on additional narratives poised to shape 2025. Explore them here:
