Crypto ETFs Set for Explosive Growth in 2025: 50 New Launches Expected
Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, forecasts a significant expansion in the crypto ETF market for 2025, predicting the launch of at least 50 new ETFs, including innovative offerings like covered call ETFs and "Bitcoin bond" ETFs. A notable milestone is the expectation that Bitcoin spot ETFs will surpass the size of physical gold ETFs, highlighting the increasing acceptance of digital assets in mainstream finance.
Major approvals for spot ETFs linked to Solana and XRP are anticipated, though regulatory challenges may pose delays. Additionally, spot Ethereum ETF options trading is expected to be approved, enhancing investment strategies for investors. Geraci also emphasizes the role of crypto index ETFs from Bitwise and Grayscale, aiming to broaden access to cryptocurrency investments. Vanguard's potential entry into the crypto ETF space is set to signal a shift as more traditional investment firms adopt digital products, marking 2025 as a transformative year for crypto ETFs.
JPMorgan Projects Solana and XRP ETPs Could Attract Up to $8 Billion in Inflows if SEC Approved
JPMorgan Chase has made a significant forecast regarding the potential of exchange-traded products (ETPs) for Solana and XRP, predicting that they could attract net inflows ranging from $3 billion to $8 billion if approved by the SEC.
Specifically, the bank estimates that Solana could see inflows between $3 billion and $6 billion, while XRP might attract between $4 billion and $8 billion. This projection reflects a growing interest in cryptocurrency-based ETFs, building on the success that Bitcoin and Ethereum products have experienced, which garnered substantial investments in their initial phases.
As of January 14, 2025, Solana is trading at $185.81, and XRP is priced at $2.53. The anticipation surrounding the approval of these ETPs aligns with an increasing demand for diversified investment options within the cryptocurrency market, emphasizing the significant impact such products could have on the respective tokens' market dynamics.
Bitwise CIO Highlights Corporate Bitcoin Buying by MicroStrategy as an Overlooked Megatrend
Bitwise CIO Matt Hougan describes corporate bitcoin acquisition, particularly by firms like MicroStrategy, as an "overlooked megatrend" that could significantly impact the market in 2025.
MicroStrategy has amassed 450,000 BTC, valued at over $43 billion, accounting for around 2.1% of bitcoin's total supply since 2020. In 2024 alone, MicroStrategy purchased approximately 257,000 BTC, surpassing the total mined that year. Currently, around 70 public companies, including notable names like Coinbase and Tesla, collectively own over 141,302 BTC, with private firms like SpaceX holding at least 368,043 BTC.
The implementation of new accounting rules allows these companies to recognize bitcoin's market value, thus increasing the likelihood of additional purchases. Huogan anticipates that the number of corporate investors could surge significantly in the coming years, indicating strong potential for growth in the bitcoin market driven by institutional interests.
