HashKey anticipates significant traditional capital inflows, estimating $3 trillion entering the crypto market through security token offerings, exchange-traded funds and central bank digital currencies.
The report projects also explosive growth in Artificial Intelligence agent applications, causing comprehensive upgrades in data storage, collaborative networks and decentralized verification.
Why It Matters: The company’s predictions also extend to the regulatory and political landscape.
The report suggests the Trump administration will likely approve the FIT21 Act, accelerating global legalization of cryptocurrency markets while simultaneously intensifying crackdowns on non-compliant crypto businesses.
This regulatory shift, combined with the strategic use of Bitcoin as a reserve asset supporting the U.S. dollar, is expected to further stabilize the cryptocurrency market and influence the demand for Treasury bonds.
In terms of market access, the report anticipates the approval of new ETFs, including ones tracking SOL and XRP, driving more institutional capital into the market.
Finally, HashKey projects a surge of crypto-concept stocks to Nasdaq, with crypto mining and infrastructure stocks gaining considerable investor attention.
Dr. Xiao Feng, Chairman and CEO of HashKey Group, stated, “2025 marks the gateway to what we call the ‘Golden Decade of Web3.’
With regulatory compliance taking center stage, a surge in traditional capital inflows, and accelerating technological breakthroughs, the cryptocurrency market is poised for extraordinary growth.”
He added that HashKey’s infrastructure would act as a bridge between traditional and crypto markets, facilitating the orderly growth of the digital asset industry.
