What’s next for DeFi in 2025?
Industry executives say Bitcoin staking, tokenized RWAs and AI agents will reshape the cryptocurrency ecosystem.
Decentralized finance (DeFi) will hit an inflection point in 2025, as Bitcoin staking, real-world asset (RWA) tokenization, and agentic artificial intelligence (AI) catalyze adoption, several industry executives told Cointelegraph.
In 2024, Bitcoin surpassed $100,000 per coin for the first time as investors poured more than $100 billion into spot BTC exchange-traded funds (ETFs).
“Bitcoin’s (BTC) all-time high will spark renewed interest in crypto from institutions and regulators alike and should reinvigorate the entire crypto sector in 2025,” Dean Tribble, CEO of layer-1 network Agoric Systems, told Cointelegraph.
