The official Ripple
While 2024 transformed the cryptocurrency space by making huge strides in adoption, regulation, and institutional technological advancements, 2025 promises to deliver even more milestones, advances, and major wins, according to a Ripple article. Ripple’s senior management believes that the cryptocurrency industry “stands on the brink of unprecedented adoption and growth.”
Building superior institutions
Ripple expects many large financial institutions to continue enthusiastically embracing blockchain and crypto, which it began last year. Markus Infanger, CEO of Ripplex, believes that enterprise adoption of blockchain will be driven by “market demand for operational efficiency and improved connectivity.”
This means, for each, organizations offering new, first-class infrastructure, tools and compliance. This will allow major blockchain companies to “create new revenue streams through sharding that can expand access to tokenized assets.”
Ripple President Monica Long also believes that tokenization and Defi will expand beyond just crypto-specific applications and turn into full-fledged enterprise tools.

Crypto-friendly regulation to facilitate adoption
The Ripple Top Management team agrees that increasing institutional adoption and diversifying crypto wallets cannot happen without one key factor: crypto-friendly and fair regulation. For many years, the US regulation lacked clarity, which prevented the crypto industry from smooth development and expansion. But Ripple’s leaders are positive that 2025 will be pivotal for this.
Ripple’s lead lawyer Stuart Alderoty predicts that the current pro-crackingboo administration in the US will ensure a new era occurs, where the crypto industry will have a healthy relationship with regulators. This, he believes, will “unlock pent-up potential and allow the market to flourish.”
New asset classes emerging on the crypto stage
The Ripple team also anticipates the increasing role of StableCoins in 2025 and sees it as a completely new category.
Jack MacDonald, Ripple’s chief executive officer, believes in 2025 that 2025 will see “a shift toward consolidation in favor of high-quality, regulated issuers”—particularly those backed by financial institutions with strong compliance frameworks.
