AI and tokenisation expected to transform markets in 2025

AI and tokenisation expected to transform markets in 2025

In 2025, AI advancements, tokenisation, and changes in M&A regulations could drive significant shifts in the capital markets, says Hunter Horsley, CEO of Bitwise.

Horsley highlighted how these factors could particularly benefit smaller, niche businesses.

He suggested that while tokenisation has been primarily seen as a tool for democratising finance, its true potential lies in helping smaller businesses access capital markets.

Tokenising real-world assets (RWAs) is expected to be a key theme in the coming year.

Horsley pointed out that this could have a transformative effect on traditional financial markets by allowing assets like real estate, debt, and equity to be digitised and traded on the blockchain.

AI is also expected to play a crucial role in the growth of micro-companies.

Horsley believes that AI could lead to a surge in small businesses, many of which would never go public, but could instead tokenise their operations to raise capital.

He described this development as the creation of a new long-tail capital market.

In addition to tokenisation and AI, Horsley predicted that 2025 could see the rise of “Bitcoin Standard Corporations,” referring to companies that hold Bitcoin (CRYPTO:BTC) on their balance sheets.

“2025 is going to see a lot of corporations joining the Bitcoin standard,” he said.

Horsley also mentioned that the potential “unfreezing” of mergers and acquisitions (M&A) regulations could further benefit crypto.

He noted that corporations like Alphabet, Amazon, and Apple may increase their influence, which could lead to more crypto adoption.

“The big getting bigger accentuates this,” he said, emphasising that growing corporate power could intensify the role of crypto in financial markets.

According to Horsley, these developments could accelerate crypto adoption and mark a pivotal year for the sector.
