Odaily reported that according to a report by Multicoin Capital on January 7, 2025 is expected to be a "pivotal year" for Web3, as artificial intelligence (AI) flourishes and tokenization triggers an "institutionalization frenzy". The report predicts that as security tokens finally "take off in a meaningful way", AI-operated "zero-employee companies" will emerge, and the pace of institutional adoption will be astonishing. Meanwhile, the report says investors will turn to AI proxies "alpha hunters" to guide the growth of new tokens and crypto-native financial products. Analysts expect 2025 to be one of the best years in cryptocurrency history, thanks to the victory of President Trump in the US November election and the massive influx of institutional funds into and ETFs. "As a crypto-friendly government takes office in the US, and ETFs achieve record success, we will see institutional interest that has been building over the past 5 years rushing to find ways to support cryptocurrencies," Multicoin said. Multicoin expects tokenized private credit and early-stage equity to thrive early on, while public stock tokens will take off later. Meanwhile, almost every existing financial institution will "race to offer basic financial products around cryptocurrencies".
