Big brain @dgt10011 getting it right for his 2025 predictions - @maplefinance flipping $BUIDL - let’s see how much he undersold it by year end
17.12.2024
As we soon close out 2024, here are my personal Top 3 2025 Predictions for the crypto industry:
1. Bitcoin structured products will hit the market in 2025 with at least $5 billion in assets, driving mainstream adoption within wealth management. The cold, hard truth is that most private wealth managers and institutions remain hesitant about taking on directional Bitcoin exposure. I predict that buffered notes, principal-protection ETFs, and similar instruments will unlock a floodgate of new demand, giving institutions access to Bitcoin’s volatility at the price they deserve, customized to their own preferences.
2. Maple Finance’s TVL (~$535M as of writing) will surpass BlackRock’s BUIDL. I hold an unapologetic view that decentralized markets, which enable novel financial primitives, will see adoption faster than “security tokenization” projects retrofitting to legacy infrastructure. Institutional-grade, crypto-asset-backed decentralized lending like @maplefinance remains the most promising near-term category winner, bolstered by potential regulatory tailwinds.
3. A new decentralized stablecoin will emerge, backed by a decentralized strategic reserve. Bitcoin’s role as a reserve asset is now undeniable, spanning corporate balance sheets to nation-states. However, a utopian consensus among crypto-natives is that the ideal reserve must be decentralized free from sovereign whims at all costs in addition to being backed by crypto collaterals. Despite the scars left by LUNA, I predict a more robust effort will rise, built with heightened transparency and leveraging the long-awaited arrival of cryptographic proofs. I have some exemplary candidates in mind that can and will lead the way (cc @samkazemian @LucaProsperi)

Only a few investors in the space that can provide real value, unique ideas and stay long term aligned with patience. All founders should know their investors underlying fund terms and track record so they know it is possible for them to be in it for the long term.

Here's to the next $2B and beyond. 🥞
