The official Ripple X account has published an article, in which Ripple’s top management reveals its vision of what the just started 2025 will bring from the crypto space, talking about key future trends.
While 2024 transformed the cryptocurrency space by taking massive strides in institutional adoption, regulation and technological advancement, 2025 promises to bring even more milestones, advancements and key wins, according to the Ripple article. Ripple’s top management believes that the cryptocurrency industry “stands on the precipice of unprecedented adoption and growth.”
Supercharged institutional adoption
Ripple expects multiple large financial institutions to continue enthusiastically adopting blockchain and crypto, which they began last year. RippleX top executive Markus Infanger believes that institutional adoption of blockchain will be spurred by “market demand for operational efficiencies and enhanced connectivity.”
This means, per him, that institutions will introduce new top-tier blockchain infrastructure and compliance tools. This will allow top companies to create blockchain to “create new revenue streams through fractionalization which can expand access to tokenized assets.”
Ripple president Monica Long also believes that tokenization and DeFi will expand much further than just crypto-specific apps and will turn into full-fledged institutional tools.
Crypto-friendly regulation to make adoption easier
The Ripple top management team agrees that an increased level of institutional adoption and diversified crypto portfolios cannot happen without one key factor: crypto-friendly and fair regulation. For many years, the U.S. regulation lacked clarity, which prevented the crypto industry from seamless development and expansion. But Ripple leaders are positive that 2025 will be pivotal for this.
Ripple’s chief lawyer Stuart Alderoty expects that the current pro-crypto administration in the U.S. will ensure that a new era will take place, in which the crypto industry will have a healthier relationship with regulators. This, he believes, will “unlock suppressed potential and allow the market to thrive.”
New asset classes emerging on crypto stage
The Ripple team also anticipates stablecoins' increasing role in 2025 and sees them as a completely new asset class.
Ripple’s top executive in charge of stablecoins and RLUSD, Jack McDonald, believes 2025 will witness “a shift toward consolidation in favor of high-quality, regulated stablecoin issuers” — especially those backed by financial institutions with strong compliance frameworks.
