The cryptocurrency exchange-traded fund (ETF) market is poised for growth in 2025, with projections indicating the launch of over 12 new ETFs in the U.S. According to Laser Digital, this year could be pivotal for crypto ETFs, particularly with the recent success of bitcoin ETFs, which have amassed over $105 billion in assets since their launch on January 11, 2024. Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, anticipates that spot bitcoin ETFs could surpass physical gold ETFs in assets as political dynamics shift. The Bitwise Bitcoin ETF (BITB) has reported $3.8 billion in assets under management (AUM) and was among the top 20 most successful exchange-traded products (ETPs) based on AUM. As the market evolves, there is speculation about the potential for actively managed and leveraged crypto ETFs, as well as options and downside protection strategies. This development comes as the cryptocurrency market reflects on the success of bitcoin ETFs, which have been described as one of the most successful financial product launches of all time.
