Presto Research, the analytical division of algorithmic trading firm Presto, has released its first annual report titled "From Chaos to Clarity," which examines the volatile nature of crypto trends in 2024 and makes bold predictions for 2025. The report highlights the success of meme coins like OM and PEPE, which saw incredible gains of 6,118% and 1,231% respectively. It also notes a shift in investor sentiment, with transparency and sustainability becoming more important than venture capital-backed coins. The report credits the late-year market surge to events such as the launch of bitcoin exchange-traded funds (ETFs) and the U.S. presidential election. Looking ahead to 2025, Presto Research predicts a boom in various crypto sectors, including Bitcoin reaching $210,000 and Ethereum's ETH/BTC ratio bouncing back. The report also expects decentralized exchanges (dexes) to gain more prominence, potentially capturing 20% of centralized exchange (cex) volumes by the end of 2025. Overall, Presto Research forecasts the total crypto market cap to reach $7.5 trillion in 2025, driven by stablecoins, mainstream adoption of smart contract platforms, and increased institutional involvement. The report concludes by emphasizing the importance of clear regulations, the hoarding of Bitcoin by companies and countries, and crypto's integration into the global financial system.
