The post Crypto Market Prediction 2025: Franklin Templeton’s Outlook on Regulation, AI, and DePIN appeared first on Coinpedia Fintech News
The cryptocurrency industry, led by Bitcoin (BTC), has grown rapidly in 2024 to almost reach a valuation of $4 trillion before the ongoing market correction. Bitcoin price reached the coveted target of $100k in 2024 before retracing to trade about $92.7k on the last day of the year during the mid-London session.
The mainstream adoption of digital assets and web3 products has been catalyzed by institutional investors such as MicroStrategy Inc. (NASDAQ: MSTR) and Metaplanet Inc. (Tokyo: 3350). The approval of spot Bitcoin ETFs in the United States played a pivotal role in the ongoing bull market, after accumulating BTCs worth more than $106 billion in less than 12 months.
Franklin Templeton’s Prediction for 2025
According to a report by Franklin Templeton Digital Assets, 2025 will mark a major shift in the cryptocurrency industry from mere speculation to utility. Furthermore, the investment firm believes that the cryptocurrency industry will become an integral component of the global financial and operational systems.
As a result, Franklin Templeton has cautioned the stakeholders to keep a close watch on the regulatory landscape, institutional moves, and developments in the AI-crypto convergence in 2025.
With the recent re-election of Donald Trump as the POTUS, Franklin Templeton believes that the United States will lead in cryptocurrency adoption. Moreover, the nomination of Paul Atkins as the next chair of the US Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) has rejuvenated hopes for better and clearer crypto products including tokenized security products.
