In 2025, the cryptocurrency market structure shifts towards institutionalization, with Bitcoin ETF assets under management (AUM) reaching $120 billion, and stablecoin supply growing to $295 billion to $300 billion. Despite a market capitalization reaching $4.27 trillion, net growth remains relatively slow due to funds shifting towards regulated assets. Key trends include: the maturation of Bitcoin as a macro asset and its decreasing volatility; RWA tokenization surpassing $16.7 billion; and the integration of artificial intelligence with cryptocurrencies, attracting nearly $1 billion in venture capital. With the enactment of the US GENIUS Act and the EU’s MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets) Regulation, the regulatory outlook becomes clearer, but security challenges persist, resulting in $3.4 billion in losses. Looking ahead to 2026, institutional demand will outpace new supply, and stablecoins and tokenized assets will further integrate into the global financial system.
