Nowadays there is no person who has never heard of crypto. The conversations about this have even achieved government levels, making it almost impossible not to get involved in one way or another. Since November 2024 we have literally heard about Crypto every day, and almost every day we can see a lot of news about it. The same happened on January 23, 2025, then Trump signed Executive orders with regard to crypto and blockchain.
We can see how tokenized assets are becoming increasingly popular with the global increasing acceptance and the understanding of their necessity. Industrial projections show that tokenization could grow into a $ 50 trillion Market by 2030 (or more?). And 2025 will be an important year for this revolution, which is difficult to argue with a fight.
Why? Let’s know.
2025: The expected legal turning point
We all know how Donald Trump’s arrival was expected in the crypto community, because he did various pro-Crypto promises. After his inauguration, as I said, we are already seeing progress. The first was the creation From a dedicated crypto task force within the sec.
The second is signed Executive orders with regard to cryptocurrencies, which is an even more important step in the direction of crypto instructions. However, it is important to understand that there are no definitive regulations yet, but they are working on formation. There are some concerns about the withdrawal of SAB 121, which is understandable, but with that we also see the democratization of industry.
I believe we will see clear regulations soon. It is important to know what is allowed and what is not. What will it give to the industry? A lot of.
First of all, because politicians start to support cryptocurrencies, more people will probably study and hire them. And with clear regulations, the trust of the public will be considerably stimulated.
So, clear guidelines for what is allowed and what is not, will attract even more investors, because they will be more confident in how companies work. But it is important to remember that when it comes to instructions, the most important thing is to find its balance with innovation. We already have an example with markets in crypto-assets regulation that shows us that it is not that simple.
However, it is important to mention that tokenized assets are not only crypto assets, it is a broader term that includes the digitization of real assets or rights in the form of tokens on the blockchain. The new regulations will therefore also benefit $ 50 billion Market this year.
Some people, given all this, expected that the market would grow considerably this year, but I think it will happen gradually. At least it should be the case.
What is the industry in 2025?
A lot has happened in 2024 that is now developing even more in 2025. First and foremost, of course, with Bitcoin (BTC) as a strategic reserve. This is in fact a very important moment for the industry. The fact that governments show trust in Bitcoin as a value of value increases trust and acceptance with institutional and retail investors.
The executive order also established the presidential working group on 23 January for digital asset markets that will work on evaluating the establishment of a strategic national digital assets stock. Bitcoin was not immediately mentioned, but it is too early to say whether it is active that is used for stock. Anyway, if it will be another digitally active – it’s not bad.
Then AI, one of the most discussed phenomena, comes at the moment. It will be a powerful enabler and tokenized markets in many areas are no exception. This is really not surprising, because AI-driven portfolio management could make tokenized assets more accessible to both retail and institutional investors. It can optimize investment strategies, minimize costs and offer new opportunities on capital markets.
2025 predictions
As governments generally increasingly investigate tokenization, tokenized debt instruments can also become popular. For example the G20 report Emphasizes that Tokenized -staat bonds can set new standards for transparency and operational efficiency. This could actually again define how public funds are managed and traded worldwide.
Then ai (yes, the discussions about it really don’t stop). And the executive orders have also not left AI. Donald Trump has named That it has a great potential to make money for the economy of the country. Again, we see support.
With such a large potential, the use of blockchain AI technology does not stop and is expected to reach $ 703 million In 2025. Smart contracts, which are used to make digital assets, in turn is expected to streamline financial processes, save them $ 15-20 billion annually in global infrastructure costs.
AI and tokenization will probably also lead to the rise of new capital markets and small companies, which in turn will expand opportunities for investors and simplify access to various financial instruments.
In 2025 we can expect better integration of Defi with Tradfi, giving companies access to financial services and private markets. In the past there were in fact many discussions about bridging Defi with Tradfi, and RWAs are perfect for it. And interesting is that the tokenization of real estate, goods and art becomes more popular. With this, ownership can be subdivided into tradable documents and increase accessibility on these markets.
During the text it was clear that there were many good changes and will be for institutional investors participation, right? So if 2024 was mainly a year of investments in Tokenized assets, 2025 might be more about its real use. This can forever change the way countries act.
The wider impact
By giving better access to assets, tokenization offers individuals more opportunities and economic inclusion. Yes, there are still challenges, but they will be deleted soon. And as we look at 2025, the question is no longer if tokenization will transform the financial markets, but how deep the world economy will change.
And again, it goes much further than Bitcoin.
