Bitwise predictions for 2025 suggest crypto is in for a monumental year

Bitcoin had another tumultuous day, crashing again into the $94,000 range, but has the week's rough start been the necessary clear-out the market needs to push forward? Also, on Bitcoin, Microsoft shareholders voted "no" to adding Bitcoin to its treasury, and Ray Dalio warned of a global debt crisis but sees Bitcoin as part of the safe haven. Then, the NY regulator approved Ripple's RLUSD stablecoin, and Bitwise predicted 2025 will be the "year of the crypto IPO," followed by some other eyebrow-raising events! So, grab yourself a coffee and let's get you caught up.
