Nation-state Bitcoin adoption to drive crypto growth in 2025: Fidelity

Fidelity Digital Assets research analyst Matt Hogan said not making any Bitcoin allocation could become more of a risk to nations than making one.

Countries are expected to add Bitcoin into national strategic reserves in 2025, kicking off significant growth in the crypto market, Fidelity Digital Assets said in its latest research paper.

He added that these entities may take notice of the playbook employed by Bhutan and El Salvador “and the substantial returns they have been able to glean from such positions in a relatively short amount of time.”
