Crypto ETF Explosion: Nate Geraci Predicts 50 New Launches in 2025

According to the latest predictions from Nate Geraci, president of the ETF Store, the crypto ETF market is poised for significant growth in 2025. Geraci’s strong track record in predicting trends in the crypto ETF market adds considerable credibility to his forecast.

He has previously successfully predicted the approval of Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs.

Nate Geraci: 50 New Crypto ETFs Coming in 2025

Geraci’s forecast suggests that in 2025, the asset size of Bitcoin spot ETFs will surpass that of physical gold ETFs. This marks a major milestone in the ongoing shift toward digital assets as a mainstream investment class.

Moreover, the crypto ETF expert anticipates that at least 50 new crypto-related ETFs will launch in 2025. These ETFs will provide investors with exposure to various cryptocurrencies.

“At least 50 other crypto-related ETFs [to] launch, from options-based products (covered call ETFs, defined outcome ETFs, etc) to equity ETFs denominated in Bitcoin to “Bitcoin bond” ETFs,” Geraci said.

He expects Solana and XRP to receive approval for spot ETF listings in 2025.

However, according to Bloomberg analysts Eric Balchunas and James Seyffart, a Litecoin or Hedera ETF is more likely to receive SEC approval before Solana or XRP. This is because Litecoin and Hedera have not been classified as securities by the SEC, unlike Solana and XRP. 

Additionally, the analysts noted that since Litecoin is a fork of Bitcoin, it is considered a commodity. This could mean that Litecoin will receive its ETF approval sooner than Solana or XRP.

Geraci also predicted that spot Ethereum ETF options trading will be approved in 2025. This will allow investors to use options contracts to hedge or speculate on Ethereum’s price movements.

Another forecast was that spot Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs would allow in-kind redemption and creation. This mechanism facilitates efficient trading and liquidity.

Looking ahead, Geraci highlights the approval of Bitwise and Grayscale crypto index ETFs in 2025. This move is expected to make cryptocurrency investments more accessible to a broader audience.

Geraci also predicted the launch of the Bitwise Bitcoin Standard Corporations ETF, which would hold stocks of companies embracing the “bitcoin standard.”

“Bitwise Bitcoin Standard Corporations ETF, which would own the stocks of companies adopting the “bitcoin standard,” launches and crosses over $1 billion in assets,” Geraci added.

Asset management firm Vanguard is expected to capitulate and allow clients access to Bitcoin and Ethereum ETFs in 2025. The prediction comes as the firm has consistently highlighted its commitment to traditional assets like equities, bonds, and cash.
